NEGRO SUFFRAGE.
When we find the Union men Of the
South uncompromising in the declaration
that impartial Tor negro) suffrage is the
great and permanent security for national
peace and prosperity, their testimony de-
serves to be accepted before the theories
of northern Copperheads and the argu-
mcnts of the late shareholders, who still
have an interest in the preservation Of the
spirit of slavery. The country can we'll
trust these southern loyalists, many of
whom have been shareholders, when they
declare that the best and surest way to
maintain the Union is to equalize political
power in the masses of the people. The
opinions Of the Convention will have no Or
binary weight with the nation.-Ne,o York

on patronizing the dl,tn,ni Of small north

Virginia was once Justly likened unto
Rome's Cornelia and we'll indeed have
her sons proven both in the forum and
"tcnted field that this handsome tribute
was not undeserved. But the most pre-
cious Jewels which adorn and spangle the
bosom OF our proud old Commonwealth
are her fearless, noble daughters. If her
sons have shown themselves Chevalier
BayardS, SdaS petT, sans rGproche, her
daughters have no less proved that they
are worthy peers of Florence Nightingale.
1t was our pleasure to attend a concert
gotten up by some of these lovely women
for the accomplishment of most laudable
object and we but pronounce the verdict
of large and cultivated audience when
we say it was complete success. Our
bosom would have been stranger to those
raptures which should find dwelling
place in the hearts of all had We been in
vulnerable against such bright constella-
ton of beauty, rare and uneXceptionable
execution, blended with strains of the
sweetest melodies. We cannot refrain from
paying slight tribute to the beautiful and
accomplished Miss L., of Richmond, who
kindly volunteered her assistance on this
occasion, andswhose rich, mellifuous voice
added so much to the entertainment of all.
The recent rains have come too late to
counterfeit the influences of one Of the
most whitening droughts ever experienced
i'll this section.
The corn crop in this county is almost an
entire failure, and will necessarily be at

The tobacco crop, if it has time to reach
maturity before frost, will be very good.

Meeting OF the Committee on Resolu.
tiOns-the Negro Suffrage Dilemma.

PHILADELPHIA, September 4.-Thc Com
mittee on Resolutions appointed by the
convention of southern loyalists met this
afternoon, and have so far progressed in
the consideration of the question of negro
suffrage as to indicate the following result :
In favor of adopting and fully endorsing
the plan of Congress, they stand as fol-
lows: Without negro suffrage, Maryland,
West Virginia, Delaware, Kentucky, Mis-
souri,, Florida, Tennessee, North Carolina,
and Arkansas. Those endorsing the policy
of Congress and in favor of negro suffrage
are Virginia, Georgia, Alabama, District
of Columbia, and Louisiana. 1t is under
stood that the Virginia delegation tonight
decided to abandon their action in favor OF
negro suffrage. The indications are this
evening that the Convention will fully har-
monte tomorrow on a full endorsement
of the congressional plan of reconstruc-
ton, dropping the question of negro sut-
frage. The Gulf States, or at least a por-
ton of them, were very DESTROYS of asking
negro suffrage for their States, but will
probably forego the presentation of mi
nority report. The resolution adopted last
night by the Maryland delegation in eau
Gus, endorsing the congressional plan, and
presented to the Convention to-day in
opposition to the frebrand introduced by
Judge Bond, has been adopted by the Com
mittee on Resolutions.
JOY.

ing of the following dispatch created the

Andrew Johnson has no right to policy

right to do other than to advise Congress,
who will adopt it or not, as they choose.
If he executes the laws, well and good. II
he does not, he is a traitor, and we'll i'm
peach him. Tremendous cheering for
several minutes.
WHAT GOVERNOR MORTON, OF INDIANA, SAID.
He cxpresscda hope that General Grant
would not lean to the South. If we are
not successful, it were better that we let
the South 60 peaceably, without the war.
He hoped in the justice and goodness OF
God, and by His aid we would triumph.

Radical Reports OF the Philadelphia
Convention.
FRED DOUGLASS.


FRED DOUGLASS.
The appearance of Fred Douglass, a
colored man, in the parade among the
northern delegates yesterday caused more
or less talk, and among ignorant Copper
heads much denunciation. Mr.. Douglass,
under the Estate Rights law" of New
York, is voter in that State, and has, we
believe, exercised the right of suffrage
for many years. Mr.. Douglass distinguished
himself during the Fremont campaign,
and at the present time is an able and elo.
quent supporter of the Union. He is per.
fectly wiling to take the "stump" with
any Copperhead in Philadelphia on the
question of State rights, and after full
and free debate to let the audience decide
the question at issue. "Mind over mat
ter is his motto.-F6rney's Press.
THE CONVENTION.
The magnificent reception given to the
loyalists yesterday was as creditablc to
our citizens as 1t was well deserved by the
flre-tried patriots of the South. The
hearts of our people were fully and freely
opened.-D.
THE VIRGINIA DELEGATION.
The Virginia delegation met this evening
at s O'Clock sixty-three members present.
Nominations were made for member
on the Committee of Resolutions in the
Convention tomorrow.
Lysander Hill of Alexandria, DR.. Bond
of Loudoun, and W. K. Smith were named.
Mr.. Hill was chosen, and instructed by
q vote of fifty-eight to five to insist upon
the insertion Of negro suffrage resolu-
ton in the platform. .....
/, Mr.. Bolts, who was understood to be a
permanent vice-president, was noticed by
resolution Of the meeting to represent
the wishes Of the loyal Virginians to b
for impartial suffrage.
