The Connecticut Convention met yesterday
and disappointed the expectations of those
patriotic citizens who have been predicting and
hoping that it would convene in tribulaton and
dissolve in wrath. 1t was unusually harmonious
and seems not TO have been called upon to sup
press any diScordant elements. Gen. Hawley
the nominee for Governor, is a man to whom
the people of Connecticut will give their
votes with enthusiasm. lie has served
through the war with distinction, gov
erned always by the most pronounced prn-
ciples which he has never even sought to dis
guse. He believed in putting down the Re-
bellon, not pretending 10 do so, and welcomed
the issue which made the war one for Emanc-
patton; he believed in justice to the negro, car.
rying his principles into practice as a Military
Commander. As an editor, he has shown HIM
self to be man of ability, and is certain
to make Governor not less distinguished
than any of his predecessors. The rest OF the
ticket is certain to be equally acceptable to the
people of Connecticut. OF the resolutions no.
body, we think. can complain. They give a
pledge of support to the President III his laDorS
'for just complete, and permanent restoration
of the Union," to which we all can certainly
agree; while they recognize in the Unonmajority
of Congress 1.-The true and tried defenders OF the
principles of constitutional liberty and order, "
in WHOM they repoSe with entire confidence for
the settlement of questions belonging to the
legislative department Of the Government.
Upon this division of the word Of truth there
can be no reasonable criticism. The COnven'
ton evidently weighed its words and SAID just

public opinion at the South enJoned a
refusal of the oath and refusal of Federal
offices, even, where they were not too prohta-
bic. In such circumstances, we think the South
can afford to wait, and that the Post-Ofiice De-
partment will consult both its own dignity and
the public welfare by postponing the efforts for
postal facilities till the Southern people have
eyinced some desire for them, or some willing
ness to accept the fayors rendered to them.

The bill to authorize the deposit of postage
stamps for sale on commission at the South, re-
ported yesterday in the House, recalls the
report of the Post.Office agents, published some
weeks since, showing that although the Depart

pointments in the Rebel States, but few men
could be found willing or sble to take
the oath. The report showed also that

light of recommendations only, and not as
Edlo, till they receive the approval of the
requisite number of Presbyteries. Be-
sides, such high authority as DR.. Hodge,
of Princeton, N. j., the great Ulysses of
Old SchOolism in this country, is cited, on
the side of non-obedlence to those annual
behests OF the Assembly. Also, very many
Presbyteries In New York, New Jersey,
Pennsylvania, Ohio, etc, etc. who do not
heed these acts as of legal authority; but
they do not say publicly, as these refractory
fellows in Kentucky andSMissouri have,
what they will or will not do, letting them
die quietly, without killing them. This is
all the difference. For such high offense,
the Louisville Presbytery has been virtual
ly suspended, and the debate now is on
a resolution offered by DR., Brooks Of this
city, that he and his Synod, and all who
sympathize with them, be expelled also! 1t
is of course claimed that all the grace and
piety is on the side of the Radicals. This
may be-: but as to talent and eloquence, the
"rebels" surely have these. The power of
speech of such intellectual giants as Drs.
Vandyke, ofNew York, Robinson and Will
son, of Kentucky, and Brooks and Ander-
son, of st. Louis, is wonderful. But the
Radicals listen to nothing, they seem dead
to reason, charity or justice, and are deter
mined to destroy the Church, and unite the
ultra part with the New School.
Let all Old School Presbyterians prepare
! for this. Our days are aboutnumbered, our
glory isdeparting, weare sinking to intamy.
Fanaticism has been our ruin. 1t will yet
ruin our nation. Gods curse is in it. 1t
makes me sad to write so!

Won't Confirm any Conservatives
even If Soldiers.

1t is announced that the Republican Sem
ators whose views do not partake of the
nature, hue and complexion of those OF
President JOHNSON, will not confirm the
appointment of any Conservative Republi-
cars to office, even if they have been mer-
i.orious soldiers, if they shall be made by
the President to supersede the present
holders of Office who are Radical. That is
as much as to say they will not vote for the
confirmation of the appointment of any
soldier to office. In the Radicals now in of
flee they have faith-faith to believe that
they will do such service as shall contrib
ute to the ascendancy of Radicalism,
whereas soldiers who fought to vindicate
the authority of the Federal Government
and to maintain the Union, might not be
disposed to show to Radicalism much
quarter. And the question comes in right
here, will the soldiers, in view of the pro-
scription that is thus waged against them
by the Senate, muster henceforth in the
ranks of the Radicals and fight their politi
cal battles9 t...... u

An alteration occurred on, High street,
near Rudisilps hat store, on Saturday even-
ing, between two well known citizens
It arose from a dispute about personal
matters of no consequence to the public.
High words and epithets were pretty freely
used, and No. /, who is a larger and stouter
man than his antagonist, struck No. 2 sew
eral times about the face and head, infict-
ing pretty severe bruises. No. made but
slight resistance, and falling back a little,
drew pistol from his pocket, which was
seized by No. /. Ex- Marshal Thompson,
who happened to be near, stepped forward
and held the two combatants at bay until
the Police came up and arrested them.
Mol plead guilty before the Mayor to
the charge of assault and battery, and was
fined IS and costs. No. 2's case was laid
over fora hearing this morning. cg

Gen. Andrews was so unfortunate last
winter as to fall and break his leg. This
has been a serious drawback in the way of
business. But we are happy to state that
he has now so far recovered from the inju-
ry as to be able to attend to the duties of
his profession. We trust his friends and
the public, appreciating his well known
talents and legal requirements, will furnish
him with plenty OF remunerative business.

June Taxes.

Now is the time for the payment OF the
June taxes. The County Treasurer's books
are all ready, and he is prepared to receive
and receipt for the above taxes. Tax-pay-
ers should bear this in mind, and call and
pay up promptly. 1t is much better to do
it now when they can be waited upon i'm
mediately and make payment without loss
of time, and not wait till the last moment,
as too many are in the habit of doing, when
the office is crowded, and have to wait a
long time for their turn, and perhaps be
obliged to go away without being able to
get their receipts.

William HnfFman, Police Officer of this

chair. on Saturday night, at his residence
on North Water street. We learn that he
has been for some time past seriously af-
fected with what is commonly called "the
heart disease" In addition to this, his wife
died short time since, which was a severe
affliction. He was man little past mid

Hot in more senses than one. Hot and
dusty on these limestone streets, and es-
pecially hot in the Old School General As

The subject that has sodeveloped the lat
ent caloric of this body of heavenly
ambassadors, is a resolution of quasi
expulsion of the Presbytery of Louis
vile for sundry naughty state
ments made by said Presbytery as to
the imperiousness and unconstitutionality
of certsin deliyeranees OF the last General
Assembly on the subject Of loyalty, slavery,
&C., which dogmas these silly Kentuckians
declared they could not and would not
obey, until they took the form Of organic
law by being first submitted to the Presby
ueries for their approval or rejection, which
had not as yet been done. This case is
similar to change Of the Federal Consti-
tuition: First recommended by Congress,
and then submitted to the State Legisla-
turss-the Assembly being the Congress
and the Presbyteries the Legislatures in this
Church. Well. these Louisville brethren
say in paper put forth not long since,
that they viii not obey this Radical edict Of
the Assembly till it ripens into the force of
law, by the Gbove process. ~ ~T
But modern Radicalism is in a hurry,
and Is very.impatient of opposition--and so

The MILITARY Prisoners.

We noticed in Saturday mornings paper
the arrival of twenty-six military prisoners
at the Penitentiary from Little Rock. Our
statement respecting the comparative num-
Der of whites and blacks among them, was
derived from a gentleman who witnessed
their arrival at the depot in this city. We
are in receipt of a note from "Robt. Ayres,
lst Lieut.. and Adj't. 10th Infantry, Brevet
Capt. U. S. A., one of the officers in charge"
in which he states there were but three
blacks among the prisoners, who were
handcuffed together by twos, and that there
was among them only one instance of a
white and black coupled together.

The following, from the Hancock Courier,
we commend to the consideration of Mr..
CoMsroCK and those of his fellow Repub-
lican members who shall this evening go
through the contemplate farce of meeting
ami adjourning as a City Council. If Mr..
CoMsrocK is legally elected, they must be
the Council, and being the Council, they
shouldn't once proceed to business. If they
are not the Council, it is about time that
Mr.. CoMsTocK interpose no further OBJ
struction to the organization of the Coun-
Gil. For whatever of evil shall come to the
city through the non-organization of the
Council he will be held responsible. Is the
demand not little too heavy that his van
ity shall be ministered to at the expense of
the interests of the whole city? If he or
his companions imagine that the Demo-
cratic members will regard his alleged elec-
ton as President legal, they will find that
they never were more mistaken in their
lives. They aoiH do no such thing, and it Is,
therefore. useless to expend any more talk
on the subject: ..... ....
We have seen children of all sexes play
ing school, little girls playing mother and

holding mock courts, etc. But never before
heard OF parcel of would-be-considered-
sensible-and-digniied men, playing Coun-
ell, for the purpose of furnishing an aspi-
rant after hOnors an opportunity to preside;

self in mute deliberation! Will not
