COLUMBIA. S. C. Sunday Morning, May 5, 1872. Tho Cincinnati Convention ?nd tho Democratic Party. Tho great reform convention at Cin? cinnati has met and acted. The princi? ples upon -which it proposes to enter into the Presidential campaign have been laid dowu emphatically and clearly, -and ita standard bearers, Horace Qreeley and Gratz Brown, are announced to the .people. lu point of numbers, enthusi? asm and the character and ability of the .delegates, the Convention waa an un? questionable Bucoess. It is now patent that ihe movement for reform and for a return to the ways of peaoe and consti? tutional government, within the Repub? lican party, or what has hitherto been .called the Republican party, is not con flned to a few self-seeking soreheads, as . the hench mon of Grant have so vehe? mently and persistently charged, but that there is a mighty nnder-ourrent of popular feeling supporting them. The . Convention was called by Republicans . and was attended solely by Republicans. Its great success shows that the liberal Republioans are a power io themselves, and a factor in solving the problem of ?tho coming canvass entitled to high con? sideration on aooount of their own in? trinsic force. In thia respect, the libe vrai Republioans have shown that they possess the first prerequisite demanded of them by the Demooraoy, as expressed through the Democratic press through ' out tho country. They are nota body -Simply of disaffected politicians, seeking .? to ride into office by Democratic votes, but show that they are impelled by mo - lives of genuine patriotism, and have a ? goodly band of Republioans of the rank . and file at their baok. Thus far, at t least, they have fulfilled the conditions L. required for Democratic support. .Lot ns look now into the platform, arfd see il it, too, does not accord with Democratic views and is not entitled ta their hearty support. Presuming the telegraphic reports received on Fridaj evening to be correct, we find embraoed in the resolutions the following princi? ples and pledges of the policy which thc .party will maintain: Looal self-govern vtaent; supremacy of civil over military -authority; respect for hakea* corpus; c are tu ra to methods of peace; mainte manoo of a constitutional limitation oi /power; civil servioe reform; and a singh 'term for the Presidency. If those an ?not pure and unadulterated Democratic . doctrines, we do not know what are Farthof, the principles therein indicate^ ace all that the Democratic, party deon .essential, and for the violation of whiol . they denounce Grant and his adminie Gration. The resolutions are declara (tiona against Grant's usurpations o power, his violations of the Oonstitu lion, his trampling upon the rights o tho States, his polioy of hate to th ^9outh, and his ??>Htary oppression o our people; hil abuse of his high offio to aeonre his renomination, and the coi ruptionH whioh he has fostered in th .civil servioe of the Government. The Democrats have not done an jcaunot do more. The declaration tho -?there shall be no re-opening of question eoiUed by the thirteenth, fourteenth an fifteenth amendments, may create som .differences of opinion among Democrats In our judgment, however, it should no! She only questions whioh can properl .be considered settled by those am?ne . ment? are the emancipation of slaven the ci vii rights of the freedmen, anc finally, that there shall be no discrim nations against them in the exercise < the rights of citizenship on aooount < .their race or oolor. Being a freeman, is but right and wise that the negro I allowed to enjoy all the rights of oitizei ship which the white man claims, sui . jeot to preoiaely the same oondition and no others. The violations of the Constitution i the Reconstruction Acta are differei .questions altogether. These the Dem oraoy may be forced to submit to, bi they can never sincerely endorse the as righi. There is nothing, then, th we can see in the platform for a Dem erat to oppose; but, on the other han -all to approve. What of the candidates? Of Mr. Gre ?ley, we expressed our opinion yesterda Mr. Adams might possibly have be? .somewhat more acceptable to the Dem icraqy at large, as being a man of mo ?Ottmanding and acknowledged etat? manship than Mr. Greeley, or any otb known public man. But outside of hi; , Mr. Greeley's nomination mast gi mo?e general satisfaction to th 3 Den: ??raoy than any Republican that cor be named. What superiority, too, \ Adams may be thought to possess head, Mr. Greeley more than count 'balances in heart. He was the un denting foe of the Sooth until what conceived to be the crying ovil of slav? had been eradicated. Bat since that time, in the days of our sorrow and op? pression, he has been oar constant friend and advocate when friends were few, in? deed. He was instrumental in releasing Mr. Davie from the wretched imprison? ment that was dragging him to the grave, at a time, too, when almost tho whole North abased him for showing kindness to a "rebel." He baa earnestly and warmly denounced Grant's military interferences at the South, and has shown, too, through his paper, the Tri? bune, that he would not palliate nor o?? anse the corrupt carpet b og Govern men ts that Grant has established in the recon? structed States. Mr. Greeley is, in short, an able and earnest, and has the reputation of being a thoroughly honest and reliable man. Of Gratz Brown, bat little need be ?aid. Ho has long been favorably known to the Democracy. He is the father of libera] Republicanism, and strack the political shackles off the limbs of thou? sands of ex-Confederates in Missouri. He ranks, too, among the first statesmen, the most eloquent and persuasive speak? ers, and the most active and successful pnblio men, of the entire United States. He is a legion in himself. To sum np, then, the liberal Republi? cans have, by the popular support which they have shown they have in their own party, by the acceptable platform they have announced, and by the strebgth and worth of their nominations, fully entitled themselves to that Democratic support whioh has indirectly been pro? mised them. We are free to say that we hope they will receive it. To the South, in our judgment, the liberal Re publicans offer an opportunity of a re? conciliation more wide-spread and endur? ing than could be accomplished by the restoration of the Democratic party to power, and we therefore hope that no Democratic Convention will be called, but that the party will tacitly fall into line and support the liberal Republicans, who represent all their essential politioal doctrines. < ? ? ? MB. EDITOR: Why does not that much-cherished institution, the South? ern Expresa Company, help to fill up the waste-places of Columbia? The spirit of improvement is abroad, and ia rapidly replacing unsightly ruins and fences by handsome business honses on our prin? cipal street. Yet the Express Company apathetically permite one of the most desirable corners on Main street to re? main a living witness to its want of en? terprise. Wo may reasonably 'inquire why the Southern Express Company does not spend some of its large earnings in maintaining in Columbia an establish? ment of at least average respectability? Why does it hide on a side street, in a one-story "adobe," behind a dilapidated barn? h LOOKER-ON. TH H Ku KLUX TIUALS-LAST DAY. In the United States Circuit Court, Judge Bryan presiding, yesterday morn? ing, the grand jory brought in a true bill against Alex. MoCarley, William E. Black, Thomas MoCoy and John A. Le? land, indicted for oonspiraoy and mur? der. The following prisoners were ordered to be discharged, they having entered into recognizance: John A. Leland, John O. Craig, R. R. Blakeney, R. H. Wil? liams, M. M. Beauford, W. F. Pearson, Thomas MoCoy, Henry Suber, A. Ma Carley, E. M. Forney. Orders were given for the transfer of a number of others to the Ooaaty jails to be bailed. The following order was also made, after which the Circuit Court adjourned to meet again in special session, as per order: Ordered, that u apeoial session of' the Circuit Court, for the trial of criminal oases, be held at Columbia, on the first Monday of August, 1872; that the Clerk of. the Oirouit Coart do give thirty days' public notice, through the Columbia PnoiNix and Union; and, farther, that the criminal oases now pending in the court, or made returnable to it, and not otherwise disposed of, be continued over to the said speoial session. [Charleston Courier, ith. THE COLORED PEOPLE.-lu Virginia, where the colored people are less influ? enced by the carpet-baggers than in most of the Southern States, exoellent relations appear to exist between the two raooB. At Richmond theoolored popu? lation made a brilliant demonstration cn the anniversary of the passage of the fifteenth amendment, and their proces? sion attracted great attention. The best possible feeling was manifested by those who participated in the celebration, and by those who were lookers on. There was a notable absence of offensive mot? toes in the procession, whioh was ap? plauded vigorously by the white specta? tors. The Riohmond Enquirer refere to this occasion as an evidenoe of the good relations whioh prevail among the citi? zens of all oolors there, and makes it a test for preaohicg liberality and tole? rance, urging all to join heartily in the work of restoring "that sincere respect and oonfldenoe, out of whioh atone oan oome happiness and good govern? ment."

Alderman Carroll presented the follow? ing paper; whioh was read : To THE CITY COUNCIL or COLUMBIA: The undersigned, oitizens and tax-pay era, object to the use of (4) four feet of the pavement on Richardson and Plain streets by the "Central National Bank," and hope your honorable body will re? ject the petition for that purpose. 1. Because it would be equivalent to a grant of all the land asked for at a price totally inadequate to its value. 2. Because the right to uno the pave? ment by the petitioner would be unjust, and unequal toward others, who would ask the like privilege, whioh, if grantod to all those who used it, would lessen the width of the strebt (8) eight feet, thereby destroying their uniformity and impairing their beauty, whioh now add so muoh to the attractions of tho city. 3. Because the streets, like publia roads, are the property of the whole community, intended for their use, col? lectively and individually, which ought not to be narrowed or encumbered, granted or hired for the profit or conve? nience of auy private pnrty.

A valuable horse in Hartford had its leg broken a short time since. The leg was carefully set by an experienced surgeon, and. waa covered thickly with plaster.
