In our exchanges from almost oil, parts Of the
State, We read notices of public meetings for the
purpose Of appointing delegates to Convention
to be held in Columbia on the first of the coming
monih--in accordance with the Suggestions of his
Excellency, Gov. 0RR. III
In our issue before the last, we published: Gov.
0RR's address, andiexpresaed the hope thatlsome
of our prominent citizens would callra' public
meeting for the object proposed. No such thing
has bcen dune We refer to the matter ,again.to
mako the following suggestion: That as South Al
Carolina will certainly be represented in the Phil
adeph;a Convention, it were as we'll for Edgefeld
to have some voice in the selection Of the two
Delegates who will represent I'll; Congressional

The Radicals must and will have the Freed
,man's Bureau. onsthe 18th or 9th of the&pres-
ont.mopth, the President returned the Freedman,s
Burenu Bill No.E2.to Congress with his Veto, In
lssstthani6 half an hour aftcrrcading theyeto mes:

qaisite votes, ayeslo3, nays So and also insthe

,shog.their utter contempt for the President and
his opinions, And thus do they foistsu the
couhtrysfor twO years longersa nefariOus, anirn-
necessary and an unconstitutional institution. g
The President, in his veto message, objects to
this Freedman's Bureau Bill on the acorc of un-
constitutionality, the. score of Inconsistency
with the, welfare of the people, on the score Of
it's class legislation on the Of its setting up
military tribunals which arc liable to como in
contact with the civil law, onsthe score of the
bad conduct Of its agents, on the score Of'its
being unnecessary in presence of the civil rights
bill, and lastly, on the e.score of economy. His
objections in fact arc identical with those against
the Bureau Bill which he VETOED some months
ago, and which the Radicals failed to pass over
his head.
But this timo they are more successful. We
are to have the Bureau two years longer. The
precious niger is not to be trusted to the justice
of State laws nor to the tender mcrcies of his old
mastcr Aud this in the face of all the late South
ern Legislation which protects the person and
property of white and black alike. The irregu-
larites, the picking, the stealing the corruption
fsrreted out and exposed by Gems. STEADNAS

and gathering strength daily. And last but not

AnUncomfortabie Probability.

There seems to be an uncomfortable probability
that the present Radical Congress will never nd
journ. Some days ago, in caucus they agreed to
adjourn on the GARD inst, but,the pending Phila-
delphia Convention and the ousting Of Radical
oaice-holders by the President have so alarmed
and excited them, that they now appear deter
mined to hold on TIL nczt Deoenber-and to
merge this Congress into the next. Washington
letter writer's sny that :he Radicals will make
every effort to prevent an adjournmert oFCon-
cress at least till after the Philadelphia Conven.
tion shall have been held. So intense is their
hatred and opposition to the President, that they
almost fear to sleep upon their beds at night lest
no gain some advantage.
AS will bc seen by reading oAr latest telcgraphic
news, the House Of Representatives of Tennessee
has ratified the Constitutional Amendment, and
the National House Of Representatives has, in
consequence thereof, passedsby an overwhelming
vote a joint resolution ro-admitting Tennessee
into the Union,
This result has been brought about in Tennessee
by the chcanery of old Brownlow, the Governor.
Hc even went SO far as to petition Genl. Grant
(!hrough Major Genl. Thomas, Commander of the
Department of Tennessee) for military assistance
to "manago" certain refractory members Of the
House of Representatives" These were "refrac-
tory" because they refused to assemble to vote for
the Amendment. Stanton Secretary of War, return
cd an Immediate answer to Genl. Thomas, sternly
forbiddins him to lend old Brownie any such aid
saying: " The administratian of tho law, and the
preservation Of peace in Nashville, belongs prop
erly to tho State authorities, and the duty of the
United gtates forces Ia not to interfere In any way
in the controversy between the political authori-
ties of the State" Make whito mark here; for
this is the first decent thing Stanton has ever done.
But nevertheless old Brownlow has carried his
point, and Tennessee has sratify the Constitutional
Amendmeab anl will &c ye-ad4tIed into the Union.
gracious permission, howevcr, on the part Of
the Radical Congress, to re-euter tho glorious
Union does not by any means end the troubles of
the "so-calcd" Confederate States. After death
comes the judgment. And after permission to
re-cnter the Union comes the Test Oath. There
may be those in Tennessee wAqpsn take 1t; but

Equal Rights Convention.

The Georgia Equal Rights. Association OF
Freedmen, of which J. E. Bryant is President,
INST in this city. on Wednesday, and adjourn.
ed on Friday night, after session OF three
days. Delegates from twenty -four counties
We're present. The object Of the Convention
appears to hare. been 10 orgsnize political
party in the interest ofsthe Freedmen and
their equality under the law. a leading OBJ
.ject. appears also-to have been to investigate
the conduct of Bryant, both as Editor of the
Lfstal Georgian aad also as to the. alleged
swindling Of freedmen. After an er parte
hearing, without sum1noningwitnesses against
Bryant, the investigating committee reported
|, favorably to4kim, adding. however, resolu-
ton condemning the attacks On Gen. Tillson,
which have appeared in the Georgian, and
demanding that they shall cease.
Just before the Convention adjourned Gen.
eral Tillson, on Friday night, on invitation,
addressed the. .Convsnt;on;in lengthy speech,
in which he gave utterance to many sound
and valuable suggestions as to the policy the
freedmen. SHOULD pursue. Ir:he course of
his address he denounced theconduct of Bry-
ans as injurious to their race, and character
izei him az liar scoundrel and beggdT.
He declared that Bryant is engaged in wing.
ing money from the hard earnings of the poor
freedmen under the pretence Of being their
friend, while his chief object is the promotion
of lis own interests. He expressed s,cen-
tempt for any man who would prostitute
himself to such shameless practices, and
warned them to beware Of him.
The Convention passed resolution thank
ing the General foe his speech, and the infor-
mation,it contained. Bryant was present, as
chairman Of the meeting. We understand
that before leaving the city large number
of the delegates expressed their opinion that
Bryant is q rogue, and their determination TO
discountenar ce him.
Gen. Ellson deserves the thanks. of. all
lovers Of truth and honesty, and especially of
the freedmen Of Georgia. for thus boldly step
ping forward to expose the infamous character
of Eryant, and prevent the advantage which
the &c parse Investigation might have afforded,
to secure a continuance. of the subsidies hels
