Senator B?j*wrd In Fuvor of Greeley unil Brown. The following lutter hus been ad? dressed by Senator Bayard to a friend in Delaware: Mr DEAII Sin: Tho peremptory orders of my physicians compel me to obtain absolute rest and quiet, and, for this pur? pose, to leave the country. My passage has been engaged, and I shall Bail for Europe on Saturday, tho 13th instant. Although u-i?ttcd by my condition of health, I felt it to be my duty to go to Baltimore as a delegate to the Conven? tion; aud it is iu relation to the action oi that body that I WIBII a few words with you, and, through you, to my other party friends in Delaware, before I leave. I ueed not say to you or to them with what astonishment and disappointment I heard of tho nomination cf Greeley and Brown at Cincinnati, nor how steadily aud openly I havo ut ult times expressed myself iu opposition to the adoption of that ticket by the Democratic party at Baltimore. But the result hus been ac? complished, however much against our will aud efforts, aud it is our duty, calmly and steadily, to confront the fact now presented to our eyes. If the issues of tho campaign were those only of revenue reform, of civil service reform-questions in which pecu? niary loss or gain to the public were in? volved-I might bo williug to take no part iu the Presidential contest, but al? low tho demoralizing course pursued by Grunt and his Administration to be con? tinued four years longer, trusting that tho very extent and flagitious nature of the notorious abuses would in themselves so instruct the people thar, they would recoil from placing further trust ia such hands. The natural capacities of tho soil and ch?m?tes of our country, together with the industry aud energies of our people, render the production of wealth (mere wealth) almost boundless, and we cac almost afford to bear the results ol linancial blunders, and, so long ns tbej aro confined to ollidul circles, of public robberies aud peculations, provided we can iu the eud buy our experience through the usual methods of loss ami bullering. But, severe and painfu though theso abuses aud their conse quenues may be, they weigh, to me lightly, compared to tho destruction o all the limitations upon power which om written Constitution o? Government wai designed to create, aud which Geuera Graut and thoso who assist bim iu ad ministering the Government, iucludiui tho Radical majorities in both houses o Congress, eeem either to totally disre gard, or, as I havo sometimes thought to take u scoruful pleasure in trampliui uuder foot. It is utterly impossible fur me, will the scenes which 1 have witnessed in th Senate of the Uuited States rising be fore my eyes, not tu feel the gravest ap prehensions and alarm at uuy prospec or suggestion of allowing the policy o Grant, and his administration toward th Southern States and their white inhabit nuts longer tu continue, if any honorabl act of miue eau tend to uvert so great calamity. Can any man justly deny that th condition of the peuple in the liheuis pruviuces, torn from Frauce by th armed baud of Germauy, is preferabl to-day iu all that protects person an property, to that of the white people i many of the Southern States uuder tl governments which Congress has set u over them under the so-called system < reconstruction, and which Grant has U| held either by threats of the bayonet e its actual presence iu those commun ties? He und his party have stood t fur the iast three years, and have see the South robbed, iusulted, and almo beggared by a motley crew, all uf h own political party of unprincipled p liticul adventurers from tho North, ac ignorant and vicious negroes of tl native population, and have uttered i word of disapproval; but, on. the co trary, have from time tu time lent tl military power of the Government (as tho cases of the troups sent upon upp cation of Governor Holden, of Nor Carolina, of Soott, of South Carolina, his own brother-in-law, Casey, in Ni Orleans,) to maintain iu power the rapacious and dishonest rulers whom t sufferings and discontent of their peoj wore threatening to eject from office a power. Now, whether I approve Mr. Greel personally or no, whether he had or c been the steady and violent opponent tho political principles and measu which you and I have been upholding our lives, yet if he has become, with against uur action or wishes, the mi likely or practical means of restorin, better condition of feeling in tho No: toward the South, and restoring scour and justice to that oppressed regioE should feel myself as au American, wi out regard to tho name of party, 1 without the sacrifice of any conviction relation to my political principles, cc pelted to assist in placing him in pot* I say nothing now of his qualificatif or personal fitness for the place; I h spoken of them heretofore, and agai my wishes and judgment the represei tives of the party have placed him in candidacy. If there was any practico means of dec ti ng a mau better fitted the place, and one whose political cai hus been iu harmony with your vi and mine, I need not say to yon thi should strive to see such a one chos but tho current of popular opiuioi this vast country takes strange aud efl times untoward directiuns, and for g or ill sweeps us with it. Sixty days agu the cendition of efl we now wituess would have been deei incredible, aud any mau would 1: laughed ut, as absurd and impossi what wo now see in fact and substai Events as they now confront ns v shaped in opposition to our efforts, as they aro we uro nut responsible th*ni; but wu urti responsible for mode of dealing with them now; at hope our State Cunventiun will prut ly and decidedly uumiuato au elect ticket in opposition to Grant and Wilson, aud iu favor of the only candidates who, as matters DOW stund, eau be hopefully expected to defeat thom-I mean Gree? ley and Brown, for whom I expect to vote on the 5th day of November next. I hope to return home by the middle of September, with my health restored and enabled to tuke part in the political o invas8. The subject to which this letter relates has given me a great deal of anxiety and distress, which I know is shared by thou? sands of true men of tho same political party in this State; but I believe that my decision is the right one, aud I k?ow that it is founded upon honest motives. TbiH only alternativo to a whole or half? way aid to Grant's re-election may be hurd for UH to adopt, but I tbiuk it our duty, and so I trust will you and the entire Democracy of Delaware. Your friend, sincerely, T. F. BAYARD. WILMINGTON, July ll, 1872. THE BOND-HOLDEKS IN COUNCIL-THE Sourn CAROLINA. RING TO BE PROSECUTED -THEIR PROPERTY IN NEW YORK TO RE SEIZED.-An adjourned meeting of th.; holders of tbe bonds of Mouth Carolina was held at the office of Drake Brothers, No. G3 Broadway, at noon yesterday, with a view of taking some united action looking to tbe enforced payment of the interest on the bouds held in this city. At the previous meeting it was clearly shown that the resources of tbe State were abundantly sufficient to meet the indebtedness, were the Treasury not systematically robbed by the carpet bag? gers. A. A. Drake acted as Chairman. After the reading of the minutes of tbe previ? ous meeting by Goodwin Ward, Secre? tary, a letter was read from a gentleman in Baltimore, reporting that he bought bonde at 65, and when they declined to 5U, he wrote to Governor Scott, asking if anything was wrong. The Governor responded that the State was able to pay. The letter refers to the commencement of legal proceedings to compel Scott and bis associates to disgorge; but they were deferred by the sudden death of Mr. Brent, tho counsel for tbe Baltimore bond-holders. It appears that Mr. Brent bad ascertained where a large amouut of the stolen money could be foand, and he intended to continue both criminal and civil proceedings, looking to the punishment of the offenders and tbe re? covery of the money misapplied. A lengthy legal opinion on the subject of the rights of the creditor to recover from the l?tate was read from ex-Go v. Magrutb, who advises that a bill be filed in the Uuited States Court to compel the agents of the State to make a statement of the disposition of the funds, and that a prayer be added for an injunction re? straining them from further misappro priaion. The Governor, who is one of the ablest jurists of South Carolina, gives it as bia opinion that the creditors would in time recover, although it would require lengthy litigation.. The following resolutions were offered: "Resolved, That a committee of three persons, to consist of ?. A. Quiutaicl, E. B. Wesley and A. A. Drake, be ap? pointed to solicit the co-operation of the owners and holders of the bonds of the State of South Carolina in the attempt to collect the past due coupons, with au? thority to engage counsel to commence legal proceedings against the officers of the State on its legal financial bond. Also, to raise funds by subscription to promote such proceedings without delay. "Resolved, That all parties interested be earnestly requested to assist said com? mittee by as early subscription as possi? ble." Mr. W. R. Darling moved as a substi? tute that a committee be appointed to confer with the bond-holders and report at another meeting, which was carried. The committee consists of Messrs. E. A. Quintard, E. B. Wesley, William R. Darling and A.QA. Drake, as ex officio members. Mr. C. E. Chichester, of Charleston, declared that all tbe taxes have been col? lected, often three times over; that they are not used for the purposes raised; that for want of funds there is not a public school open in the entire State; that the lunatics have been turned out of the asylum, Bent back to their re? spective Counties, where they run wild; that the inmates of the prisons have been turned ont, and the people were poor, ruined, in fact. It was necessary, if any uction be taken, that it be at once, as the gubernatorial election occurs in Oc? tober, and tba ring thieves, who are building palaces in Ohio and other States, will not remain in the State. Several other gentlemen, including Messrs. Herbert aud Underbill, urged immediate action. Mr. Underbill re? ported that they intended to take out I executions on property in this County owned by the ring. The committee were instructed to re? tain Governor Magrath, of South Caro? lina, and Mr. Herbert as legal advisers. Tho meeting adjourned to re-assemble1 next Thursday, at noon, at the some | piuco.-New York Herald, 12th. --?.-.> Not satisfied with sustaining and up? holding the carpet-bag plunderers in | North Carolina, until they have increased the debt of that Slate from $14,000,000 to over $38,000,000, the Graut Adminis? tration is now taking funds from the publio treasury at Washington, and send? ing it into that State os a corruption fund. The Graut Radical robbers in that State have un idea that there is a little moro loft for them to steal, if they have auotber opportunity; so Grant takes the people's money nt Washington and scuds it down there to help put bis North Carolina friends in a position where they cnn steal all there is left. lu return for this favor, they ure to help Graut uud his military riog.

AND.-The new Presbyterian Church on Sullivan's Island was dedicated yester? day morning, in the presence of a large congregation. The services were con? ducted by the Rev. John Forrest, pastor of the Scotch Presbyterian Church of this city, who delivered an impressive and appropriate sermon, and preached again in tbe afternoon. Although dedi? cated as a Presbyterian Church, it is in? tended for the use of all evangelical de? nominations; and it is the desire of the gentlemen who have been instrumental in ita construction to have the pulpit al? ternately filled by the various city di? vines included in that category. This church fills a want long felt by the isl? ander], aud its completion is hailed with much pleasure.-Charlestoix News. THE APPLICATIONS FOR POSTAL CARD?.

Firms in Boston, Providence, Philadelphia, Pittsburg. Cincinnati, St. Louis, and, in fact, all the large cities, have similar requests filed, and it is believed that at least one half of the first lot will be immediately disposed of to corporations and business houses, to be used as a cheap means of advertising.
