A Renaissance of the Charleston Conven-
tion of 1860.
The Charleston Courier relates:

The Charleston Courier relates:
We recollect on one occasion dining
with Mr.. Vallandigham, during the SEES
1860, in this city. 1t was at the period
when the delegates from the South had
intimated their intention to withdraw
from its deliberations. Secession, al
though often preached as contingency,
had not as yet assumed the shape which
forced itself upon the conviction as a
reality. And, even by those who spoke
most unreservedly of it as remedy, it
was always accompanied with the remark
that it would be peaceful, and would
either result in the security, by constitu-
tional amendment, of the rights of the
South, or that the separation of these
States would be without conflict The
Presidential election had not commenced
The nominees were not yet before the
people.
Mr.. Vallandigham rose at the table,
and, with great depth of feeling and
earnestness of manner, said to those
around: Gentlemen, if the Southern
delegates withdraw from the Conven-
ton, the Democratic party, the only stay
of the Union, will be disrupted, a Sec
tional President will be elected, the
secession of the Southern States will
follow, and there will ensue one of the
most terrible and bloody civil wars on
record" General McClernsnd, who was
at the table, said +: "Sit down, Vallan-
bingham; you are always prophesying;"
upon which he responded: II speak
earnestly, because feel earnestly; and
if we live you will bear witness to its
fulfllment"

CANADA ARMED.

The Canadians are really afraid of a
Fenian invasion, and have, besides vol

regulars under arms in the Provinces
This is greater number Of British regu-
lars than Canada has seen at any one
time since the war of 1872. The chief
forces of regulars at the Canadian towns
are $500 at Montreal, 1900 at Quebec,
800 at Toronto, 1900 at London, 600 at
Thorold, 500 at Kingston, and the re

EMIGRATION TO LIBERIA.

In some portions of the South it IS
stated that the negroes prefer emigration
TO Liberia, to living in idleness and pow
erty in the many sections OF the soutn
that are now destitute. One hundred
and sixteen colored persons recently
passed through Atlanta on their way 10
Charleston to embark for Liberia, and
the Southern papers report that large
numbers of emigrants, awaiting an OPP
portunity to sail, and who have come
from all portions of the South, are now
collected in Charleston. Our latest adj
vices from Liberia represent that colony
to be in a prosperous condition, and en-
joying lucrative trade, SO says the Phil

SITE OF THE COUNTRY.

The New Orleans Times is gratified to
learn upon unquestionable authority,
that the condition Of the States compris-
ing the Department Of the Gulf, ia at
present most satisfactory, with the ex-
ception of few sections of Texas, Rad
ical sensation reports to the contrary not
withstanding. Throughout Louisiana
and Florida there is no conflict of au-
thority, no complaints, nothing transpir-
ing, in fact, in the way Of transgressions
of law and order, other than those which
are common to all communities. The
people-natives, newcomers and freed
men-all seem to be attending closely to
their own affairs, and to the increasing Of
their worldly possessions. We have rea-
son to believe that such Ia the substance
of General SHERIDAS's official report to
Washington.
The difficulties referred TO in Texas,
are said to grow out of the following cir
eumstauees. When the Confederate
forces of the Trans Mississippi depart
ment surrendered, the troops in Texas
did not fulfill the conditions agreed upon,
but disbanded to their homes, taking
with them such arms and war materials
as they saw fit, and destroying much Of
the remainder. Subsequently Govern
ment agents were appointed throughout
the State to collect. the arms which had
been retained, and these agents performed
the duty allotted them with more or less
Of success. Recently, county judicial
officers have indicted several Of these
parties-solely, We are assured, for acts
performed in compliance with their in
structicns-and heavy bail bonds have
been exaeted. These arrests are in il
rect violation Of an order from the War
Department and q law Of Congress, and
as the Government must necessarily pro-
tect the accused parties, an injurious
state Of feeling is excited, and perhaps
something more serious to the magis-

A CURIOUS RESIDENCE.

Recently St Louis street inspector
discovered smoke arising from the. inlet
to a sewer, and upon entering it and
making an examination he found an
apartment excavated under the street,
containing furniture, clothing and other
evidences of being inhabited. This Gu
rions retreat was evidently the residence
Of some outlaws, whose lawless occupa-
ton compelled them to submit to the bad
odors arising from the foul water of the

IN SPECIE.

The Mobile courts have decided that
when man steals cotton its value must
be reckoned in specie, to decide whether
it be grand larceny and felony, or only a
misdemeanor. A man had stolen $40
pounds of cotton, which was worth Sl25
in greenbacks, S25 more than a grand
larceny theft, but only $50 in specie, SO
the thief is only guilty of misdemeanor,
and gets off by paying 5000 fine, instead
of going to-the penitentiary.
