The Southern LOyaIists' Con-
yenfiOD,

This is TIE designation claimed for the
Convention that convened IN Philadelphia
on the Sd inst. aS an offset tu the Conven-
ton that assembled in th"t city on the eth
| of August. The Radicals of that city have
! for some time busted themselves in making
preparations for an imposing demonstra-
tion, in attesta iDn OF their warm and ac-
tive sympathy in the movement Such a
demonstration they made on the Sd. The
palice force in their best dresses; the mem
beTs Of the Loyal League, with new ro-
sets; fremen, in new jackets and with
FURNISHED engines aud hose carriages; sol
dierS who had been in the war; with bands
OF music and gay banners, parraded the
streets, and produced the usual enthusiasm
that is produced by such demonstrations.
The sober inquirer will be astonished that
there shouid have been such display and
consequent expense. to welcome men who
did not represent and who did not seek to
represent White constituency in the South.
There was talk on Sunday Of endeavoribg
to prevail on Fred Douglass not to take a
Seat in the Convention; but when it vas
ascertained that he represented a White
constituency in the Rochester IN. Y. Dis

were clamorous for Negro Suffrage in order
that they might have a constituency, it
would seem that the Northern policy Re.
pubcanS concluded that they might sit
down and participate as equals with the
Negro Douglass in the same Convention. -
Some Republicans corrns spondentS represent
Northern delegates as or2ning their eyes in
astonishment and alarm because the South
ern delegates were. so outspnken and ex
trclae in their Radicalism and in favor of
Negro Suffra.-e A little reflection before
hand should have convinced them that
nothing cnuld be more possibly be more
natural. These Southern men are not rep
resentative men. The Southern Whites
have never trusted them and never viii. -
They know it. They must have consti
tu1ncy TO be ocservice to the Radicals and
to get Themselves into snug offices. In the
slaves just set tree, they recognize a con.
ssitunncy, if they S, all be entranchised.-
should they not be able to keep the South
crn Whites subordinate to them any length
of time they could recruit supporters from
the barbarDu3 districts of Africa at COM
naratively little expense. If. therefore, the
Convention shall not declare broadly and
explicitly in favor Of Negro suffrage get it
will be because the Northern delegates shall
dissuale from it, lest defeat should be Yisi-
ted among them in the ensuing elections
That they will confer suffrage upon the Ne
groes of thu South if that is not already
assured in the pending constitutional
amendment, in the event of their success at
the tall elections, is as certain as that night
follows the day Ohio ,Statesndn.

Notwithstanding the rainy day and
night an immense number of people assem-
bled in front Of the Bates House to witness
the reception of the President The house
was beautifully decorated with Chinese
lanterns.
The President was received at the Terre
Haute Depot, and escorted to the Bates
House by prominent citizens and large
torchlight procession.
For an hour there was fine display of
fireworks from the top of the building.
Eachof the party were introduced to the
crowd from the balcony on washington
street, and were received with prolonged
cheers. When General Meredith com
dent, it was evident there was an organized
gang Of rowdies, led by prominent Repuli-
cans, determined to prevent the President
from speaking. When he commenced re-
turning thanks, cries OF all descriptions
were uttered by the Republican rowdics,
who said he chould not be heard.
The President spoke a short time not
withstahding the confusion, and then re-
tired. General Grant came out and said
"For the credit of your city, hear us all
speak. " But the response came I'VE
won't hear any of you"
After the party retired there was alter.
cation, during which several pistol shots
were fired, and several persons were woun-
ded. The disturbance of the meeting was
disgraceful to the city, and is so felt by all
good citizens.
