seems that few ignorant negroes who were receiving

about 40 coored aborers to join them IN the strike ana
upon finding that there was no prospect OF their demand
being acceded TO- they gathered in gang and threat

balance OF the strikers, who speedily dispersed when
they witnessed the fate Of their foolish leaders. We
men as these strikers for a favorable opportunity is
presented to teach ignorant negroes that the law VIII

Assuming that the facts are correctly set
forth above, we hold that the strikers were
served exactly right. They had perfect right
to ask So per day for their own labor and refuse
to work for less; they had no right to threaten
or annoy others for choosing to work for less
rather than stand idle. This is the law of Free
Labor; and negroes must respect it, whether
they like it or not. If they "gather in gang, "
and threaten to shoot and kill those who
work for wages that they have rejected, they
will find themselves running against snag.
But suppose these Savannah stevedores had
been White, do you believe that the Military
would have been summoned, and the strikers
lugged off by them to close jaill Not they Did
you ever hear of Federal force dealing thus
with White strikers, unless they were refusing
to work for the Government, as required We
never did.

The dispatch from st. Paul, published on
Friday morning, stated that the Republican
Convention refused to pass resolution approx.
ing the civil and military acts Of President
Johnson. From the St. Paul papers, received
yesterday, We get, in detail, the course Of the
Convention on this subject. The resolution
actually passed, and which We published on
Saturday, was as follows:
Resolved That the administration Of the general
Government during the past four years in the hands Of
the late lamented President. Abraham Lincoln. and IA
the hands OF the present Executive Andrew johnson.
in all their efforts 10 preserve the Union and the ber
ties of the country meets with our hearty approval and
concurrence.
Pending the passage of the resolutions, Mr..
Holcombe offered the following as a substitute
to the above, which was laid upon the table By
large vote:
Resolved. That we recognize in the civil and military
acts of Andrew johnson. they stand ont before tue
world during the darkest period OF the nations trial.

OLD VIRGINIA.

We cannot find time to answer the lett.,
sent US from various quarters, inquirng as to tia
best region wherein to settle at the South. w.
can only say generally that there are inyitin. !.
lands to be had at low prices in erery Southern
State, and that We consider them all eligible e.,
settlement, from lower Delaware down. ".
could not advise Western man to come Eaa
in quest Of good location, nor an Eastern man
to 90 West, since the chances are good on thu
lower Mississippi as well as on the James, tia
Santee and the Savannah. Better look first at
the region nearest you, and if you are not suited
there, go further.
To Eastern men and Europeans, we earnestly
recommend an exploration Of the shores Of
Chesapeake Bay, and thence through Old Viz.
GINA into North Carolina. We believe land,
can be bought there as cheap all things con.
sidered, as anywhere on earth. These snds
are but six to thirty.six hours distant BY steam.
boat from all the great seabOard cities which
will always afford ample markets for their pro.
duce. Virginia and North Carolina are con.
genial to all the fruits of the Temperate Zone
the Apple the Peach, the Grape, and the Plum
and can supply our markets. as well as those
of Philadelphia, Baltimore and Boston, with
these and the edible Berries and delicate yege-
tables, at the seasons in which they respectively
command the highest prices. All the Grains Of
the Temperate Zone, with Tobacco, are here
grown in perfection; the Flour of Richmond
being of excellent quality. Now that Slavery
is dead, it is morally certain that Wine and
Silk will soon be added to the list of Southern
staples, and that the lands of the seaboard
States will rapidly appreciate in value. The
Mutton of the Virginia mountain-sides is the
best in America, and will yet be recognised by
epicures as worth an extra price.
Virginia is now poor. Many of her people
have much land and little else. Her crops are
very short. There is not food enough In the
State to carry her people through the year be.
fore them. Labor will of course be cheap,
through the pressure of want. Every man who
goes down there and pays out even $500 foi
land and labor will help the people through The
pinch before them; and the more money he in
vests the better. We advise Northern men ia
club their means, buy large estates, divide them
into farms and lots, sell them at auction, each
one bidding on the tract that suits him, and
divide the proceeds according to their several
investments, and settle as compactly as may
be, so as to have Roads, Schools. congenal
neighborS, &c. Those who do this will find
Virginia an excellent State to make homesin.
and will seldom be forty-eight hours travel
from the homes they will have left behind.

.erq LOCAL TstIg

NAvAL.--Late on Tuesday evening, tht
limited States steam frigate, "Powhatan," ar
lived IN, and proceeded up to the Gospor
Navy Yard, where she now lies. The con
tract steamer Seneca" that arrived at thu
Ward some time since, for repairs, was, wher
she was overhauled, found to be thoroughly
rotten. The Seneca" was built three years
400. by contract, at New York. Her timbers
we're of green, or not well seasoned wood
which, from being put together without cover
from the weather, soon decayed, and made
necessary the repairs she has just received at
our yard. This vessel was one of the " one
hundred day vessels"-was actively engaged
in the attack ON Fort Fisher, N. c., in which
she bore a conspicuous part, receiving, early
in the action, a severe SCATTERING in her star
board bow, that exposed her worthessneSs.
AS set off to the poor work put up on these
contract vessels, we will state that the old
frigate "St. Lawrence" now lying in our har-
Dor. and spoken of as being intended for a
storeship for the Brazil squadron, was, after
being bored in over one hundred places, found
to be as sound as Mexican dollar.
We are pleased to learn that the reduction
of this essel from war footing to that of o
floating conamissariat, will be done on this sta
ton, and not carried hence, as we some days
400 remarked, we feared would be done.
If work was ever needed by any mechani-
cal society, it is now, by those resident in the
two communities represented by CHS paper,
aud we earnestly beg that the Navy Depart-
ment, aware as tits, of the skill ndworth of
o,lre. mechanics, will give Them a fair proper
ton of Government patronage.
1t is reported that Commodore Berrien, the
able and affable Commandant of the Gosport
Navy Yard, has been detached, and that Com
mander Hitchcock has been ordered to relieve
him. Commodore Berrien's friends will be
sorely grieved at his detachment, as he has,
during his stay with us, made himself exceed-
ngly popular by his affability and nrbanity.'
Extensive repairing and rebuilding is now
being carried on in the Gosport Navy Yard,
and we hope soon to chronicle the fact that
all the mechanics who formerly worked there
n have been reinstated, and put to work
again.
