Charleston Convention Adjourned
---NO Nomination Made.

We fill large portion Of this weeks Sen
tinel with the proceedings Of the Charleston
Convention. We publish them at large be-
leying it far better that our readers should have
an opportunity to see for themselves where the
last six years tinkering with the Territorial
question, has at last placed US.
If the rights of slave property in Territory
is q judicial question (as is now held,) it is hard
to find valid excuse for the needless and ca
lamitous legislation of 1854. That legislation
was forced through Congress and on the coun-
try by northern leaders, and from that day until
the present, the ascendancy of the democratic
party in the North has been overthrown. Only
two years previous, at the Presidential election,
the National Democracy carried every northern
state, Massachusetts and Vermont alone except
ed.
1t will be seen by the proceedings OF yester-
day, that the Convention met and afte; nine
days labor, concluded to adjourn without TAX
ing any additional ballot. They are to meet
again on the 18th of juno in the city of Balti
more. In the meantime, there are enough
Douglas men in every State Of the South to hold
meeting and send delegates to Baltimore. So
the convention in June will doubtless be full.

We have always, says the Indiana Sentinel,
suspected that the phanthropc professions OF
the New York Tribune, concerning negroes,
were bogus, and such turns out to be the fact.
1t says:
But we do not like negroes, and heartily wish
no individual Of that race had ever been brought
TO America We hope the day will come when
the whole negro race in this country, being full
ly at liberty, will gradually, freely, draw off
and form community bygthemselves, some.
where near the equator, or join their brethren
in lineage in Africa or the West Indies.
Since the negro race, when left to paddle its
own canoe, Inevitably relapses into barbarism,
the quality of the philanthropy Of the New
York Tribune is at once appreciated. If it did
like negroes it would not be for banishing them
from the country. In Ohio the black republi
cans like them very well, for they have been
making voters. The Tribune ought to like
them, for without them there would be no black
republican party and no Tribune

rEiacy COuIinIuetO Come.

From the Washington (FAyette county, Re-
gister, independent in politics, we learn that fl
ty-seven negroes, embracing all shades and col
ors, hailing from the South, arrived in that
county, and took up their residence about the
first Of the present month This is but one of
the legitimate results of giving them the right
to vote. So long as our people through the acts
of our public servants, hold out the idea OF po-
litical and social equality between the races it
is but natural that the negroes should emf
CRATE to this State. Are our people prepared
to make our noble State the "place of refuge"
for all the worthless, lazy negroes who may be
driven out of, or fail to be placed on perfect
equality with the whites in other States?

The Two Platforms.

The two platforms which were finally re.
ported to the Charleston Convention, will be
found in our columns. On reading them under.
standingly, we do not recognize in the rejection
Of the platform reported by majority of tht
States sufficient cause to justify the with,
drawal of our Southern brethren from the Con.
vention. Individually, we approve and would
have preferred the frank, out spoken resolutions
which. the Northern delegates refused to
adopt But in view of the unmistakeable po-
sition Of the Supreme Court of the United
States as indicated in the Dred Scott case, the
minority resolutions (those which were actually
adopted, ought not to have caused so mu,h dis
satisfaction. Unless the United States Court
becomes revolutonzed under Black Republi-
can President, protection to slave property in
the Territories will be SO fully recognized by
that tribunal within the next two years, as to
leave no room for quibbing, When that comes
to pass, if ever Gas we believe it will the North.
ern Democracy, by their Charleston resolution
stand pledged to abide by 1t. So we are una.
be to see any sufficient reason to justify the
OF our Southern friends. five are
not mistaken, the speeches OF many of them, be-
fore the campaign is half over, will show that
the views here expressed are equally their own.

A correspondent in New Concord, Muskin-

man on Thursday morning, mentioned sngu
lar phenomena in that neighborhood on Tues
day. 1t was an astounding noise in the sky
ike the roar of cannon, which was followed
by the fall of number of stones, weighing from
two to fifty pounds Since the date of cur cor

a wide range of country and that stones of the
kind described were found freshly imbedded in
the earth in the same manner, miles apart.
In Morgan, Muskingum, Coshocton, Morrow

with a great velocity apparently much greater
than. it could have attained by its own momen-
tum. Going to the spot where it touched the
ground, he found rock weighing over fifty
pounds, embedded in the earth depth of two
feet. The phenomena seems to be unpreceden

miles apart although the explosion was heard at
all the pieces mentioned from the direction o f

shock, and in one or two instances the doors

Temperance Meeting.

According to previous notice, there was
meeting Of the friends of Temperance in tn,
Court House. May lst, 1860. The meeting wa
organized by calling j NJ. Estep to the chair
and appointing VIM. G. Finney, Secretary. Or
motion, Rev. j. s. McCready opened the meet
ing with prayer. The Chair then stated th,
object Of the meeting, and INTRODUCED Rev. JohI
Moffitt as speaker, who delivered very abl,
and powerful lecture on the evils of intemper
ance. The Rev. VIM. NJ. Grimes, at tho clos
of the lecture, presented the following Resolu
tiOns, which were adopted by the meeting, viz
WHEREAS, God has created man an inteli
gent, rational and accountable being, and pla
ced him in his moral government with the re-
sponsibiltieS Of love, reverence and obedienc,
to God his Creator; and love and charity anC
example to msn, his fellow creature. And a
man can only fill these obligations to God ant
man in a state of sobriety, there fore
Resolved, 1st. That the drinking Of any anC
all Intoxicating liquors as beverage, is the be
getting and the cultivating of an unhallowed ap
petite for strong drink, and is a sure road to
drunkard's grave.
I'd. That the past history OF dram drinking i
mournful one, and that almost invariably, the
subjects have been led on to dishonor, degrade
ton and DEATH
Sd. That to use any Intoxicating liquors
as beverage. when it is known the appetite il
will produce, the time and money it will Squan
der, and the the consequences it leads to; is no
thing but SHINING against light and knowledge
4th. That as tine drinking of any intoxica
ting liquors is the uniting of man for his OBJ
legations to God and the disqualfying of hin
for his duties to man, and that it is therefor,
morally wrong.
5;h. That we, as Temperance men and la
dies, do therefore solemnIy diScountenance anC
condemn as wrong before God and man, the
manufacturing, vending keeping or drinkina in
toxicating liquors as a beverage.
Sth. That the christian ministry must evel
be regarded as the leaders in every moral re-
form. and that as our main hope of the fna
success OF the Temperance cause lies in the fact
that it appeals to the consciences and mora
and religious sentiments OF manhood; we re
specially and earnestly call upon the Christian
pulpit to utter its voice Of entreaty and warn
ings at the wrong
The meeting adjourned to meet on the 14th
Of May, at o'clock in the evening, to hear
speech on Temperance.

The Ese:lSOaa why.

Some Black Republicans are profuse in their
praise of the Ohio Legislature for adjourning a
few days earlier than usual. This at first sight,
seems to have been a commendable act on the
part of that august asSemblage, but when we
consider that they remained as long as there
was dollar in the Treasury, and when it was
empty broke for home, we think they are de-
serving of but little credit for the adjournment
Rats adjourn from farmers crib when the
corn gives.

1t is something Of an object, now "a days to
buy good goods at low figures. Men are not
usually found in "tight times" like the present,
very heavily laden with gold, and the place
where they can get the best goods for the small
est amount Of money, is THE place for them to
make their purchases. Taking this fact into
consideration, and being desirous of promoting
the general welfare Of the people, we will speak
undetstandipgly of the best establishment in
Cadiz fer the purchase Of new, cheap and good
goods. A. G. Stewart, has just opened ou the
largest stock Of Spring and Summer Clothing,
Peace Goods. Hats and Caps, Boots and Shoes,
&C., that has ever been brought to this place.
His selection cannot be surpassed enywhere.-
Lot others talk as they may, we are emphatic
in saying that, Tor the CASH, Clothing can
be purchased cheaper at his store, than at any
other store in Harrison county. Ii It's the store
for farmers, and it is the store for mechanics.
No part of mans phylactery adds to or
.detracts SO much from his personal appearance
as that which shelters the dome Of thought -
He may wear secdy coat and greasy trowsers,
with shirt collar and askew but il his caout il
adorned with glossy, fashionable tile, he pos
sesses an air OF gentility that secures respect,
while II he were clothed in the finest French
broadcloth, and wear shocking bad hat" he
presents to the stranger q loaerish aspect, and
creates suspicious that he is wearing borrowed
garments, "a man can't often borrow a hat, or
perhaps would not like to have it known how
he came by them. There is therefore an I'm.
psrative necessity that every man should have
good hat, and it should be fashionable one,
too. To know where to 60 in the full security
that you will receive the latest styles, and de-
sirable qualities. is a matter of some Importance

them to A. G. Stewart, in the room formerly
