COLUMBIA,- S. C. Wednesday Morning, Jone 16, 1869. THE PRINTERS' NATIONAL CONVENTION. the New York Herold, whoae editor (whatever may be otherwise thought or said of him,) is admitted on all baud? to have a prodigiously long nose, thus dis? courses of a decision of a Printers' Con? vention: "Tho Printers' National Con? vention at Albany,, by a vote ot 56 to 23, laid on the table a resolution for abolish? ing all distinctions of race and color in the craft. This means that the distinc? tion of color is to be enforced os an ob? jection to the black mon, and as it is with the printers so it will be with all the other Trades' Unions. They will all be ar? rayed against negro equality in their workshops, and the administration before long will hear from them al the polls." BLACK NIGHTS OF THE WHITE CROSS GUFFKE OM HORSEBACK-COLORED SWASH? BUCKLER BEFORE A BLACK QUEEN or BEAUTY-THU WEALTH AND FASHION OF NIGGERDOM.-Toe Pittsburg Leader gives the following account of a recent tourney among the "cullud persuasion" of that hamlet: Tho annual tournament of the Knights of the White Croes, a oolored organiza? tion of this city, was held at Union Park, Alleghauy City, on Thursday, apd there Was a general tnrn-out of tho color-'' ed .population " of '.the two cities. The organization is rather an aristocratie one, and is composed of the colored waiters apd barbers who claim to bc from old Virginia.families, and look with a sort ot contempt on tho Pennsylvania niggers. Eaoh dusky knight was mounted on the best steed his means could afford, and was galy decorated with ribbons, and flourished a tin spear, which gleamed chivalrously in the sun-light. Colonel George Washington Lovett had com? mand of tho troops, and was assisted in his arduous duties as manager of the fourteen knights by one who bore the extensive title on the programme of Sergeant-nt-Arms George Washington Gnshington JV Galloway, orator. - When the* Sir Knights had all been duly placed inside tho park, 'and put through a short' cavalry drill .according to i ufan try tactics, .they were drawn up in the centre of the park; .sod Colonel Lovett and Sergeantat-Artna Galloway reviewed? the1 troops, ; The .oratorical Sergean6-at-Arms then rode out in front of tho lino, raised himself in-bis stirrups, and delivered an oration, /.'. : After the .^iroun^ferericq. of the-park had been described sevoral^t^?s, the Knights prepared'for th? tilting, and made desperate attempts to carry off the . ring, which was suspended from a pole about eight feet from the ground. ! On the first trial all the Knights missed, and the band played "Oh, Carry rae Back, Oh, Carry me Back, to Old Virginia's Shore.?' Favoritism is generally aeon in award? ing of all prizes, ami the tournament of the Knights o?-.the White Crpes was no exception to thc general rulo. The Knight of the Lone Star was a married man, while his competitor | was not so unfortunate, and the judges decided that marriage rendered it impossible for a Knight of tho White Cross to win the first Honor, and the privilege of crown? ing tho Queen of Beauty was awarded to the Knight of Liberty. A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HERE AND THERE.-The latest instance of the Presi? dent's inordinate desire to obligo bis personal friends is related by Judge Brockins, of tho Territory of New Mexi? co. It appears that a man who was form? erly Speaker of the Territorial Legisla? ture was appointed by Graut, and con? firmed by the Senate postmaster ut Santa Fe, New Mexico. He was ono of the most prominent republicans in tho Terri torynod was strongly backed by Chavez, the Territorial delegate in Congress. Upon hearing of his suspension, Judge Brockins, who was here, went to tho Postmaster-Generul to ascertain the cause. He inquired what charges had beou preferred against tho suspended postmaster. "Nono," Haid the Postmaster General. "Then why was he suspended ?" said Brockins. "Well," said Creswell, with his usual frankness, "all I know about it is this : Gen. Sherman went to tho President and said he wanted a place for an army officer, who was left ont in the cold by the con? solidation of tho army. The President inquired what sort of a place he would like to have. Sherman replied that the officer was now in New Mexico, and he would like to be postmaster at Santa Fe. Grant said he believed the place was filled. 'Put him out,' said Sherman, in his impatient manner, 'ho's some politi? cal bummer, I guess, and my man is u moldier.' 'All right Sherman,' said Grant, 'I'll do it' And so he did." Judge Brockins is curious to know what reasons the President will assign for this suspension within thirty days after the Sonate meets. It is said Grant bas employed Sherman to writo tho reasons for this particular case. . . NEGRO CLERKS TO BE PLACED IN THE POST OFFICE.-There was a rumor afloat on tho streets yesterday that tho Messrs. Gunn, who for some time past hnvo la? bored faithfully and efficiently as clerks in the post office, are to bo removed from office on tho 1st of Jnly, and their places fillod by negroes. Upon inquiry wc learned enough to satisfy us that there was a great deal of truth, in the rumor. I Charleston News. One divorce to two marriages was tho rate in Connecticut last year, and this in civilized New England. Adivorco never occurred in Sonth Carolina until. Inst week, and this in the barbarous South. [Nea- York, Democrat. - GBBBNVHIUS, Jane 13th, 1869. Hasans. Enrxons: Ia your IMUS of June lfith I noticed an article purport? ing io hate como from the cor. of tho New ?YorJt World, in which say nome is used in slandering Speaker F. J. Moses and his father (the Chief Justice.) I would be indeed sorry to lend my name for snob a purpose As for the Chief Justice, I have always intertwined a high appreciation of his ability and integrety, and look upon his appointment to the present position os one of the best in the State. With reference to the money said to hare been borrowed by Speaker Moses, from sotne Northern guest, I know no? thing qf the transaction. I have heard of some rumor to that effeot, but can? not give its origin or Touch for its truth. As far as "ruy private business with Mr. Moses is conserned, I clame ti to bo my affair alone. Not even have my ex-cred? itors a right to complain, much less a corespondent of a New York paper. I further clam? that the losses I met with in Sumter (that affected my business) was on larger transactions than th? few thousand dollars that I fmay havo lost with all my debtors of that place. B. J. YOCOM. Radical Rous;tis on a. Kampagr. Tho Philadelphia co:respondent of the New York Democrat, writing under date of Juno 10, says: Yesterday was tho day appointed by (be ringmaster of the radical party in this city for the nomination of Ward, County and Legislative officers, and such a scene has rarely been witnessed in Christendom. M*"- Taylor, the former Coroner, was nominated for that office. He is a very decent apothecary, at the intersection of Ninth and Yine streets. During his former occupancy of that post he showed himself a mild, gentlemanlike person. He was decidedly the best man nomi? nated, as he is rarely seen drunk upon the Btreets, and does not keep a tavern, and, besides, has the advantage of being able to write his own name. The nominations -for City Treasurer, Recorder of Deeds, Commissioner, etc., were made from fragments of the old "ring" that has no often disgraced us. During tho balloting for the Recorder of Deeds a scene occurred that will long be remembered ; the members shouting, "To h-1 with old Perkins. We don't all pw gag law hero. ", . .. Mr. Perkins-"I ara elected Vioo President from the Fifth Ward, and have been ruled ont Of my seat by the Com xnittco pn Contested Seats, and I am s respectable citizen, and i-" A Voice-"You're a d-d old-padding* head," . . Mr, Perkins-"This is destructivo tc all law, and-V Another Voice-"Shut up, you d-d old tub of-ts.'? Mr. Perkins-"I will stay hero till ] rot before I-" Cries of "Take the old rooster out,' "Punch., his head/' etc., ptrevnUod, arie .otfe member cri?dj ?'I move we adjourn.' Here there waa a rush toward tho Prcsi dent's seat ; one me'mber planted his'fiat in another's face, and a miscelluneoii! fight took placo. The President-."If I had tho power ] would put all disorderly characters ou of the room." Motions wero now made from ?ll parli of the room, and dire confusion pro vailed. Aftern few knock-downs, Select Couti oilmen Smith, getting upou a bench cried, "If you will behave yourselves fo twenty minutes I will order n burrel o whiskey-corn whiskey-and you can al have a jolly time ; you can all go hom? drunk." In an instant perfect quiet prevailed ull hands were as quiet as boys who havi been promised a holiday, until Jacl Houseman was announced os having re ceived tho highest number of votes fo Recorder, when one member called out "Jack Houseman's got no money, ant no credit. Nobody would trust him t< whiskey." Houseman-"You shall havo all yoi want." Three cheers followed for Houseman The Convention adjourned to a neigh boring mill, where they drank and fough all night. NEGROES IN THE WORKSHOPS.-Th mechanics and workingmen hero, as wol us throughout tho country, are becomin justly alarmed at the evident purpose of the administration. They see in th persistent policy of introducing into th workshops of the Government utterl incompetent negroes, a design rather t reduce the white operatives to a leve with tho lowest class of humanity thai to elevate tho negro to a higher office They also see in the proclamation of th Executive, making eight hours a day work, only a bid to induce the whit man in Government employment to sui mit to tho degradation of negro con punionship and social equality wherevi tho power of tho Government can bo ej ercised. They even seo further, an have concluded that this "bid" eau on! affect laborers in public employmeu outside, of which, if operative at all, must servo moroby to create diflicultit between tho employers and employed i private life.

THE attontiou of tho citizens of tho Stato is respectfully invited to tho annexed extracts from an Act passed at the recent session of the General Asaembly, and ratified on the 19th day of March, 1869; and their cordial co-operation with the officers charged with tho execution of the law is earnestly roques ted. Tho enumeration of the inhabitants is to furnish a basis tor the apportionment of repre? sentation in the next General Assembly, in ac? cordance with Section 4 of Article II of the Constitution, and the necessity for ita correct? ness will commend itself to citizens of all po? litical views. In connection with this work the statistics of the agricultural productions of last year will be taken, aud it is eminently desirable that they should be returned as fahy and intelligi? bly as circumstances will permit, as it is ex? pected that they will furnish valnablo data in the future agricultural history of the State.

ExxoxrrrvB CLEMENCY.-It is a melan? choly faot that ina Chief Executive ol thia State ii sending back to Charleston th? most notorious gang of rogues and itWESa breakers ever turned loose upon a Community. An instance of the results Of Executive clemency was recently brought to our notice. A negro fellow, well Known at police headquarters as one of, th? most expert mid successful rogues in the community, and who re? joiced in tho euphonious cognomen of "Bull Head James He?ry," was con? victed of burglary and larceny at a late term of the Sessions, and sent to the Penitentiary for a term of years. It is to be presumed that somebody made an effort in behalf of Bull Head. At any rate, he was deemed a worthy object for the exorcise of the Executive clemency, and accordingly about ten days ago, the fraternity of rogues in Charleston was rejoicing over the restoration to his old field of work of the aforesaid Bull Head. But Bull Head had evidently lost con? siderable of his expertness during his forced retirement, and was nabbed in almost the first job he undertook. It ia to be trusted that a little moro varo will be observed by tho Governor in the exercise of the pardoning power. We have in Charleston now more rogues than we can contend with, and when we aro fortunate enough to send some of them off, it is extremely unpleasant and very taxing to onr hen roosts, to have them returned to us, novi homines.

Information has been received here of an unpleasant difficulty between Chief Justice Chase, and the bar of Raleigh, North Carolina. The Chief Justice states that he was shown what purported to bo a protest drawn up, and signed by many of the leading members of tho bar. On tho opening of tho court he addressed tho members bf the bar present, stating that the court hod aeon the protest,' and con? sidered it a contempt, and that tho clerk would be ordered to servo upon each member of the bar who signed.it, a rule to show causo why they should not be si? lenced until they purged themselves of the contempt. This caused much con? fusi?n among the lawyers, and they left the court to confer as to tho course proper for them. The calendar was then called, aud tho lawyers whose names were in tho protest were not allowed to nppear in their cases. A radical editor has a Southern ex? change that is always filled with adver? tisements of sheriffs' sales. Referring to tho matter, he gives expression to the belief that the said exchaugo is published in a Democratic community. He is al? together mistaken. Having established a radical court, and elected a radical sheriff in that part of the South, the car? pet-baggers have commenced plunder? ing tho decent people "according to law." The graceless scoundrels stoic all tho money, jewels and other movable valuables of the "horrid" rebels some? time ago. The thieves are now stealing the lands and houses.-Cairo Bulletin. A most remarkable case of conformity to hotel rules, at some personal incon? venience, is thus related by the Cleve? land Plaindealer : A guest at one of our hotels, the other evening, was discovered by the proprietor rather tenderly embra? cing the chambermaid. The landlord rebuked him somewhat angrily, and : wanted to know the reason of such con? duct. "Simply obeying the rules of the house," said tho guest, pointing to a card tacked to the ro.>m door. "Don't it read, 'Any neglect of servants should bo reported at the office ?' I don't want to be reported nt tho office for neglect of servants, do I ?" AFTER-DINNER NATO -Many persons are in the habit of sleeping for half an hour or an hour immediately after din? ner. This is a bad practice. Ten mi? nutes sleep before dinner is worth more than an hour after. It rests and re? freshes, and prepares the system for vigorous digestion. If aleop cnn be taken after dinner, it should be in the sitting posture, as the horizontal posi? tion is unfavorable to healthful diges? tion. Let those who need rest and sleep during the day take it before dinner, in? stead of after, and they will lind that they will feel botter, and that their di? gestion will bo improved thereby.

"Many of the most affecting and most important scenes described in the Bible, I transpired under the splendors of orien i tal night. Sodom and Egypt, Beersheba and Babylon, Carmel and Gilboa, Olivet and Emmaus, Jerusalem aud the sea of Galilee, have each, by night, been wit? nesses of Hie power and glory of the omnipotent Jehovah. "The author of 'Night Scones in the Bible,' has followed the shadow of night across the landscape of divine revela? tion, aud grouped together the sacred scenes which are made awful or impres? sive by the mantle of darkness.

Again we pass on down the ages to the time when tho loni looked-for morning had come, and th? Son of righteousness had arisen wit! healing in His beams." Before us is i lone mountain side, and a prostrate fora kneeling on its uucushioned rock. Th* pale moonbeams creep among the crags just revealing their barrenness, the star shine dimly overhead; a huge night birt flaps his wings and alone breaks tin stillness of the midnight hour; bu glory surrounds the lowly form-it u JeBus, for 'it came to pass in those dayl that Ho wont out into a mountain t< prav, and continued all night in praye to God.'
