Soldiers and Sailors Convention,

CLEVELAND, September l5.-The pre-
parations for the Soldiers and Sailors
Convention to-day are tolerably com
plete. A tent Of the capacity of three or
four thousand persons is ready in Mcnu-
ment Square, The arrivals upto the
present are not heavy, but tonight aud
tomorrow will largely increase them.
Gen. Steadman and the committee OF
arrangements arrive tonight, aud the
programme will probably be settled at
the meeting this evening Gov. Bran
lette, Of Kentucky, and Gems. Wool,
McCook and Custar are already here.
Indications point to Gen. Wool as tenn
porary, and Steadman as permanent
chairman. Beyond this little, as yet
nothing is indicated Of the course of the
Convention, though the general impress
sion is that but little speeehmaking will
be done. The weather to-day is fine
and cool, but threatening this evening
to rain.
CLEVELAND, o., September l6.-No;
over three hundred delegates TO the Sol
diers and Sailors Convention have yet
arriyed-not enough to give any indica-
ton Of the strength OF the Convention.
The morning trains and boats will prob
ably give large aceessions.
There are complaints of the GOODNESS
OF the reception of the delegations, no
formal reception being given them.
The executive committee has rooms at
the Kennard House, and will be in ses-
sion tonight The temporary organiza-
ton will take place Al , pm. tomorrow,
by which time all the delegation will
have arrived

CLEVELAND, September l8.-The Sol
diers and Sailors Convention organized
yesterday. General Wool, was chosen
temporary chairman In the course of
his remarks he said the sooner Congress
admitted the Southern representatives,
the sooner will be allayed the apprehen-
sions of the people, the dangers which
menace the country and the prosperity
of the Union. He said the purposes OF
the Radicals were to plunge the country
again into civil war, if negro suffrage
was not conceded by the South, and
leave the country a bowling wilderness
for want of more victims to crafty their
spirit of revenge. But the war he stated
would not be confined to the South, but
would extend over the North, and only
close with the overthrow of the Govern
ment. He said President Johnson was
patriot, and that the brave are always
merciful and generous. With the Presi-
dent, he, too, said we have had war
enough, let us now have peace These
sentiments met with particular enthnsi-
asm.
The Convention is largely attended,
between three and for thousand dele
gates being present The pavilion was
crowded to its utmost capacity and the
proceedings were most harmonious.

Internal Revenue. 1t is bad egg.
There are now lying at shipping points

Because the District Assessor has not
been appointed, and there is no one TO
assess the tax. 1t is true that cotton may
be shipped under bond, made out IN trip

Il must be taken by an assessor In the
