COLUMBIA, 8. C. Sunday Morning, February 1, 1874. The Election of Delegates to the Con? vention. If we mistake not tbe signs of the times, important oonBaqaonoes will flow from the meetings to be held to-morrow throughout the State. O?X people have been forbearing and patient in a re? markable degree under the accumulated and aggravating evils which oppress them. They desire still to take only those lines, of aotion for their relief which are peaceful and prudent, and in which all citizens who have not an inte? rest separate from good government, good order and the 'prosperity of the whole country, may cordially unite. Having no controlling interest in any department of the State Government, unable directly to check its excesses or reform its abases, and yet fully con? scious of its dangerous tendencies, and feeling most keenly its oppressions, tho people who psy the taxes and real!] sustain it, have thought it advisable to consult together and to take such steps j as will end in a correction or modifies tion of their overwhelming troubles. They propose to bring the state of things here before the bar of the public opinion of the whole country, and to petition Congress for such interposition as will bo available to work a healthfal change. They propose, further, to bear directly on the State Government with such reasonable demands an they cannot1 in conscience disregard. Many things havo occurred mainly through an jtmp&88iv6nes3 aud suffer? ance. , ,We have not Bought to prevent I them by any well-dirooted or organized effort. This we aro now to try, and, as we have often said, we believe that muoh more can be effeoted by earnest? ness and determination than wo have heretofore imagined. In our advooaoy, we have only to equal tho rigbteoumess of our cause, to make it respected and triumphant. Firmness, prudence, a high sense of justice, tempered by the spirit of forbearance, stand us in hand ?? ikl. tw)?M knn, ... MHP ?j -~D We shall take occasion, before the Convention meots, to express more fully oar views of the subjects it should treat, as well as avoid, and of tho general polioy it should pursue. The immediate duty of the people is to seleot their best men to represent them?the best in vir. tue, intelligence, experience, prudenoe and determination. Men who live only in the past, or merely impulsive men, let them avoid. They. should equally shun the tame-hearted and interested, who see nothing wrong in the adminis? tration of affairs in this State, or seeing and acknowledging the myriad abuses which beset us, are afraid to pursue the manly oourse of devising au adeqaate remedy for them. An Appeal to Uarolliiluna. Washington, Junuary 27,1?7L My fellow-citizens of South Carolina, you owe it to your manhood, to your country, to your wives and children, to refuse to pay another dollar's taxes. To pay the tribute levied by nu organized band of craven rogues, undor the guise of a State Legislature, is to prove to the civilized world that the brutal Afri? can rogue and sneakjug carpet-bagger is the superior iu physioal forco, in mental bravery and in manhood, to the white man of Carolina. You lay on your backs, when not toiling in the cot? ton fields, and moan, "My God, what is to beoome of us? Start up, resist, pay no more taxes without representation, demand from the President and Con? gress b republican government in South Carolina and minority representation by tho cumulative system of voting. As you are now, you invoke the con? tempt, * yes, not even the pity, of tbe masses of the American people, who ' appreciate a people that help themselves and oan prove their manhood. It does look as if all tbe brave men of South Carolina were either killed in tho lato war or have emigrated. A NATIONAL REPUBLICAN. Texas and Pacific Railway.?As will be seou from tho following telegram, that portion of tbe great Texas and Pa? cific Railroad extending from Longview to Texarkana, also to Shreveporfc, Mar? shall, and Jefferson and Dal lay, Texas, bus been at last completed, connecting at Texarkana with the Cairo and Ful? ton Railroad for Little Rook and Mem? phis: ? Houston-. Texas, January 24. 1871. To B. YV. Wrenh, G. P. and T. A.: Connection made at Texarkana. We commence the sale of through tiokets to-morrow. S. M. MILLER, General Ticket Agent of the Interna? tional and Great National Railroad. This opens up tho only all rail line from this section of tho country to Texas, and, wo aro informed, will re? duce tho rates to sorao points as much as $10 a tiokot. We cannot say too mach in favor of the Texas und Pacific, and the good its completion will do the country generally, aud especially tho Booth. Tue Western and Atlantio Rail TSSS STATES (.Krtifii-ATUnK, Saturday, January 81,1874. ? SENATE. Mr. Whittemore introduced a resolu? tion relative to tbe Italian immigrants; wbiob was adopted. air. Smalls introduced a bill to pro? vide for the appointment of an inspector of timber and lumber for the port and town of Beaufort. Mr. Maxwell?Bill to incorporate the Baemont Manufacturing Company, of Marion. Proofs MuMirnY-?Unparalleled Suoobbs of Dr. J. A. Jones in the Treatment op the Most Inveterate and Dangerous Diseases.?Wo oopy tbo following from the Macon T^legi-aph and Messenger: If any unbelieving Thomas in this community needed additional evidence as to the unquestionable skill of Dr. Jones and his amazing success in afford? ing speedy relief to multitudes of suf? ferers who have consulted him, let them find confirmation strong as holy writ in the testimony of tbe parties themselves. Seeing and hearing is bulieving; and day after day, these unfortunates returu to their homes in all parts of the coun? try, bearing with them the glad tidings and tangible evidence of perfect resto? ration from misery and wretobeduess to renewed health and happiness. As a matter of interest and encourage? ment, however, to tho afllioted, a few will be mentioned of those woll known in this vioinity who havo experienced relief at his hands. Among these may be included Mr. John Wilkinson, of Baker County, Georgia, wbo has just been cured in an almost incredibly short time of that usually life-long mish,.p, hernia. Also, Mr, Simon Fleishman, of the mcrcautilo house of S. Cohen, Esq., in Americus. This individual's eyes had bean crossed, and his vision seriously impaired for twenty-one years. But now the defect has been perfectly re? moved, The cu80 of Wm. Ira Smith, one of the young gentlemen of Mercer Univer? sity and a son of Davis Smith, Esq., of this city, whose eyes were straightened and cured after an infirmity of twelve years' duration, affords another striking instance of the wonderful skill of this scientific surgeon. Mr. W. A. Hopsou, tho popular mer? chant on Second street, is among the number likewise, who, iu tho short space of three weeks, has had affec? tion of tho eyeu of tweuty-ono years' standing wholly removed. And so a long list of cures might be recited of similar instances of opthal mia, cross-eyes and other diseases of that delicate organ, were it necessary. In the loathsome disease of the noso, known as oztena, Dr. Jones has been equally successful, as can be shown in a very large number of instances. Two patients iu this oity wid corroborate this statement. One of them, Mr. Dickinson, who re? sides on Troup street, after two weeks treatment, declares all tho disagreeable symptoms muoh abated, and that his re? covery is progressing rapidly. Tho other is the young gentleman, Mr. Winn, to whom allusion was made several weeks sinae. He now pronounces himself per? manently cured. But Dr. Jones' remarkable skill ex? tends to quite a variety of other distress? ing complaints. Among these may be mentioned those of the throat and lungs and ear, and affections requiring elec? tricity and galvanism, and the uso of tho most delicate instruments. These of themselves are a curiosity to those visit? ing his rooms. That terrible enemy to thousands of ladies, sick headaohe, ho has actually cured of late in a number of persons who had been martyrs to It every week for many years. In that well-nigh incurable disease, diabetes, too, Mr. While, of Mucon, is a living and most wonderful monument to tbe Doctor's skill. This ipdividual has engaged in business again, and con? tinues to inoreaso daily iu strength and flesh, while every trace of the complaint which brought him to death's doer has utterly disappeared. Yielding to the solicitations of many of the first citizens of South Carolina, ho has been induced to make this State a brief professional visit, and is now practicing at the Wheeler House, Co? lumbia, where ho will euro those aflliot? ed with difficult diseases of long stand? ing, and perform those moro difficult operations in opthalmio aud aural sur? gery, until the 15th of February. Ho will not go out of his office to praotioe, ncr undertake i neu ruble cases. Yet, by his more improved methods, he cures with ease most of the diseases that cannot even be alleviated by the ordinary practice. Miss Nellie Grant's Aitboacuino Nuptials.?A Washington correspond? ent of tho New York Herald says: Miss Nellie Grant's engagement \& one of the leading topics of society chut hero. It will be remembered that Fanny Koniblo, tho tragedienne, who married Mr. Pierce Butler, of Philadel? phia, and was afterwards divoreed from him, had a younger sister, who evinced a groat talent for muBio. She studied in Italy and iu Paris, and made a sen? sation at several concerts, but before she was fairly on tho stage as a prima donna, she was wooed*and won by Mr. Sartons.. a rieh Englishman of au old family. Now, when Miss Nellie Grant returned from Europe, last yeur, she made the acquaintance, ou the steamer, of the seoond son of this Mr. and Mrs. Sartons, aud tho iotimaoy ripened into affection. Just then tho elder brother died, and tho fortunate swain thus be? comes the heir to the Sartons estate. It is intimated that the marriage will come off in the spring, and at the same time ^^LFrod^ra^t L^P^"^ Wim Kitty The Quabbbzi Bktwbb* Hknbit 8. Foots and Jkffkbbon Da is?Foote iHvrrsa a Ghaiilenqe,?The politioal food, which had ita origin twenty-five years ago between Jefferson Davis and Henry 8. Foote, both then of Missis? sippi, and warm political ? opponents, and whioh lived through successive party campaigns in the Btate and in the oonntry, did not abate ono jot, exoopt for a brief and delusive trnoe, when Mr. Davis bcoamo President of tbe Confede? rate States, and Mr. Foote a member of tho Confederate House of Representa? tives, and survived tho wreck and rain of the war and its defeats. It seems to? day to have increased in intensity nnd bitterness, in spite of their gray heads and growing wisdom and the thousands of examples of party and personal recon? ciliation that have oooarred while they perpetuated their quarrel. Becent pub? lications of Mr, Foote in Washington papers affecting Mr. Davis hava added fresh material to their mutual wrath, and now it is reported that a duel is 1 actually bel?g arranged by whioh to and the feud forovor. Tbe following letters form the present climax of tho trouble, the first appearing in the Washington Capital, and boing u private letter writ? ten last fall: Memphis, Tenn., November 25, 1873. Mn.- Dean Sir: Yours of tho 20th instant has beon this day receivod. I have not seen any of the articles which you inform me 11. 8. Footo had written in abuse of mo, nor havo I had any de? sire to read whatever he might write. In tho year 1851, I published him as constitutionally a liar, and his subsequent career only served to confirm me in that judgment. 8incB that date, therefore, I have taken no heed of the utterances of said Footo. His flattery, when ho was seeking politioal preferment iu tho Confederacy, and his abuse when, faith? less to his trust as a Representative in the Congress of tho Coufeduruto States, ho was preparing for his subsequent de? sertion to their euomy, wore alike disre? garded by mo. You are at liberty to use this us you thtuk proper. I remain, respectfully and truly, yours, JEFFERSON DAVIS. Tho following curd is published in tho Washington Chronicle by Mr. Footo: . ."As u portion or tho community may possibly expect from mo nomo notice of tho inBultiug und grossly aspcrsivc let? ter over the signature of Jellorsou Da? vis, which yesterday morning made its appearance in tho columns of the Capi? tal, trough tho glaring mendacity of ull the allegations of fact continued therein might well justify mo iu treating the letter itBolf and its infamous author with cool und passionless contempt, yet, for certain reasons, not difficult, I imagine, to bo divined, I huvo thought proper to take a somewhat different course. ?'I shall not now go into,a detail of past occurrences, with a view of my own vindicatio!). It is not possible for tho ruined and disgraced cbumpiou of disnniou to say nught of mo, or of my public career, which coald iu the least degree disturb my equanimity. He has cherished nu uudyiug hatred for me ever since his own presumptuous arro? gance, on a vory notod occasion, com? pelled mo to slap bis jaws in this oity, in the winter of 1817-48. The hostility thus engoudered was afterward much heightened by my defeat of his treason? able aspirations to the office of Go? vernor of Mississippi, as a secession candidate, iu 1851. My constant and unyielding opposition to bim and his nefarious scheinen in Richmond during the war of tho rebellion fo'r throe years was not at ull calculated to assuage his enmity. My free, but unanswered, and I venture to say unanswerable, exposi? tions, last summer, of his indecent and seditious attempts to keep alive, in the bosoms of his countrymeu, feeling? of irritation aud alienation which ought never to have been brought into exist? ence, havo donbtless muoh inflamed the malignity which was slumbering in tho recesses of u heart capable of all mis? chief. I rejoice to know that the blight? ing curso of Mr. Davis' commendation it never oau now bo my ill fortune to inour. But I bid this mighty man of Gath, who writes ho blustrously for publication in the newspapers, that I do not livo in absolute concealment; my whereabouts may bo easily found by him or his idolizing Confederates. He knows, as thousands of others know, that for full twenty years I havo stood ready to accord to him such satisfaction as he might doom necessary to his deeply-wounded honor; nnd tbat, what? ever goneral views I may eutertuiu touching the propriety of settling such issues us have arisen between him and myself iu the modo referred to, yet that, from special deference to him, I shall bo altogether iuduoed to tnuko ins an exceptional case. Tho habitual ca? lumniator of honest, aud patriotic men has no right to skulk behind tho hypo? critical pretences of extremo pioty. "H. 8. FOOTE." On January 12, Charles Batt, ayouug farmer who shot his sweethourt, and Bailey, the tradesman, and tho woman Barry, who assisted Bailoy iu poisoning his illegitimate infant, were executed at Gloucester, England. Tho executioner was a physician, named Anderson, who does the business for tho love of the thing, nnd hands tho fees to Culcraft. A white woman residing on Pacific street, San Franoisoo, married to n co? lored man, gave uirtu rcaentiy to twins, a boy and a girl. Tho boy is black as jet, bat, on the oomponsntion principle, the girl is white as a lily. Tho father is only half pleased, and says he can't understand such a checker-board ar? rangement. At 0 o'clock, Friday morning, Judge Maokey sentenced He/okiuh Duncan to five years in tho State ponitoutiury, for killing a mdu named Boliok, in Fair field. The prisoner was fonud guilty jof rrmnslfmphtor. ttepentant. Mother, I kneel oa the door-sume, Penitent, weary end woro; Mssy a mile have I wandered, And fasted since yesterday morn; Darkness is gathering round me, Never again shall I roam; Open the door to me, mother? Weloome your prodigal home! Father was angry?so angry? And stern, when he knew my disgrace; He thrust me away from his presence, And thou shut the door in my face! But, mother, your love did nut leave me; I saw the tear ready to start, Aud knew that, though guilty and banished, I still had a place iu your heart! They say you grow feebler and feebler, By reason of sorrow and shame; That your bair is as white as a snow wreath, Aud 'tis seldom you mention my name; But, oh! I will never believe them, When slander like this they ropeat; For the voice of my mother has called me. And brought me agaiu to my feet. She talked to tho Saviour about me, And prayed?as a mother can pray! Aud back to tho fold He has brought me, The lamb who weut wand'ring astray. I soon became weary of exile, I soon became weary of sio, And longed for a lifo that was purer; But who would have taken mu inV O mother, doar, say yon forgive me. And take me again to your breast! Nor let me die here on the door-stone, Alone, unforgiven, unblest! Come quickly?a footstep approaches! Not yours, but another's!?good-bye! Tell father?that God?has not?left me?

Hay no & Son, who represent Messrs. Baring Brothers A Co., in the Bank of the State case. Haviug learned that Judge Graham had ordered Reooivor Gayer to turn over tbe assets of the bank iu hia posseasion to Jacob Williman, Esq., Clerk of tho Court, and tho Clerk to audit the said receiver's accounts, which was done, aud a report thereon filed, Messrs. Hayne Sc. Sou notified Mr. Williman, on Friday, that as a transfer of the assets had .been made without any notice to them, and, further, us it was alleged that Mr. C. C. Paffer had been appointed receiver in a ! similar way, if he (Clerk Williman) m?de any transfer of the assets put in his hands by tbe late receiver, Gayer, without their having an opportunity to judge of the fitness of any receiver who may bo appointed, and of the character of his sureties, they would hold his (the olerltV) sureties responsible for any in? juries their clients might sustain by rea? son of such transfer.
