to commit himself in favor of General Cox.
The Chairman of the Abolition Convention
was introduced to him, and either the Chair
man Of that Convention, or some one else

"Well, General, they have nominated
your old friend General Cox for Governor. "
"Ah, indeed" remarked the General.

The Augusta, Georgia, Transcript thus
describes IA scene which recently took place
at Columbia, the Capital of South Carolina
"Wc recently mentioned the sad condi-
ton of the people of Camden, whose houses
were subject to visitation by an armed mob,
and who were allowed to have nothing save
by the sucrancc of abandoned and lawcsS
men. Now We learn that the people of Co
lumhia have been subject to the like terri
! bic visitations. 1t appears that the mob
begun with attacks upon the public store !;
! then private stables were sacked; then the
supplies gathered at the dcpotS for the suf-
icring and starving poor of the city We're
carried off then the wagons which convey
cd there the charities of other cities were
cmpted. Even the the mules attached to
those wagons, and the cows upon which
poor widows and orphans depended lol
their support, were not spared, The ih0
nLc declares that there is no other prospect
before the people but absolute famine anC
starvation. 1t says: There are no less
than 10000 people here daily receiving ra
tons, who have no other means of getting
bread for themselves aud children. Sec
these unhappy dcStitutcs at the ration
house, daily clnsing to its porchcs, eagerly
waiting iorthc doors to open and give then
that daily bread for which they are author

they will, in II short time, be compelled t,

A Delightful Contrast.

On Wednesday night, the Dist inst. -,
from the west front of the Capital, Mr.
Schench and Senator John Sherman doliv-
cred harangues, in which crude, rovolu-
tionary and impractcablc ideas aboundcd.
They would have the world look upon them
as statesmen; they are candidates for Scna
torial honors. Three days afterwards, ther,
was "A great event at Lancaster. Thousand,
turned out to extend to GWcW Sherman a
brliting welcome home. In response to
speeches addressed to him, he made bricl
speech. How unlike the would be States
men, to whom we have referred, he spoke.
lie had met, fought and overcome South
crn armies; he had been among Southern
people and he knew their habits and their
feelings. lie spoke, therefore, from prac-
teal knowledge, and that practical knowl
edge did not prompt him to advocate the
extension of Suffrage to the Black man, oi
of keeping the late insurgcut States out OF
the Union an indefinite period. Take th,
| Constitution for your guide, said he allow
the respective States to take care of thcil
own interests aud affairs and again trus
the Southern people ~ and the best of re
suits will follow. 1t don't matter wha
these sentiments may be called, M,y az,
Moroughiy Democratic. Statesman.

The RAvAsEs OF WAE.-In speaking Of
the small vote Of Vicksburg, Miss, in com
parison with what it used to cast, the
Vicksbnrg Journal, Of the 18th, said
"The loss of population by the war has
been very heavy. From twenty-four to
twenty-eight companies have been sent
to the war-including three companies OF
cavalry and three of artillery. But few,
com paratively, of all these men have re-
turned.
'We give the losses in afew companies, aa
reported to US by an old resident of the
city,. The 'Yicksburg Cadets went out one
hundred and twenty three strong, return
ed, six. The 'Vicksburg sharpshooters'
went out one hundred and twenty-four
strong; returned, seven. These 'unretgrn-
ing brave lie sleeping beneath the soil Of
every Southern state.p

The Public Meeting Last Saturday

The meeting in our city on Saturday
was q success in point of numbers and the
spirit which tempered its proceedings as
conservative body. There was no call for
any special action on national or domestic
politics, farther than to manifest an ap-
probation and appreciation of the course
marked out by President JOHNSON for his
own and the peoples guidance, respecting
q restoration to the latter eff their civil
rights under civil forms OF government.
The main object of the meeting, which
was to nominate delegates to attend State
Conservative Convention in New Orleans
nextmonth, was satisfactory accomplished.
There was only one speech made on the
occasion-the only one called for-the only
one that was necessary-as it took in the
whole scope and aim of the meeting in IN
earnest, concise and lucid form. 1t was
just such an address as might have been
expected from the honest-minded and tal-
ented gentleman from whom it came,J ..
UQuAS ISl I1iS SiVI"Sbet h"hi 49," -
butte to the honored dead who fell in the
late war; his sensible and judicious appeals
TO his fellow-citizens to stand by the prin-
ciples and policy hitherto enumerated by
the President Of the Nation and repeated
more recently in his address to certain
Southerners at Washington, and to fulb'l
faithfully the duties and obligations which
each owes to tho General Government, I'M
der the constitution and the laws; his excel
lent counsolings that every one should make
common cause in, and lend their united
efforts TO the work of, civil reorganization,
prudently avoiding all premature issues
and discarding politics for mere partisan
purposes, as calculated only to stir up strife
and bitter feelings-all these were listened
to with profound attention and elected
merited appreciation and satisfaction.
The proceedings of the meeting, en- bra
cling the names OF its officers and its dele
gates to the State Convention, may be seen
IN another column.
