The NIuIatto Convention

The socalled Convention of Southern
Loyalists" has resulted in the most dis
gushing farce that ever assumed the
shape of q political movement in this
country. The spirit Of the Convention
was simply radicalism run mad. Ne
groes were admitted upon the floor as
delegates, and were treated with the
most disgusting servility by those who
clai med to be whites; ANNA DICKINSON
raved and scolded in her peculiar style,
and the entrance into the Convention Of
q negro wencb, the wife of FRED DOUG
LASS, was the signal for tremendous
cheers. JOHN MINOR BoTTs, a man
once well known and highly respected
throughout the nation at time
when there " re statesmen IN the
land, attempted to stay the tide
of radicalism which was fast sub
merging him aud his associates, when
he was greeted with hootings
and Kisses, and q negro from Louisiana
sprang upon a chair and shouted ''put
him out" JACK HAMILTON proclaimed
as the motto of his party the old revola
tionary catchword of intidel France,
Liberty, Equality, Fraternity" At
every threat of war, pillage, rapine and
bloodshed, the delegates sprang to their
feet and rent the air with appiaudiug
huzzas. Delegates clamoted for the
blood of their countrymen, and the ri
bald blasphener, BRowNLOw, was greet.
ed with enthusiastic cheers when ho
proposed the determination Of the pep-
pie of ten States and the burning of ev-
cry trace OF civilization found therein
The Convention resembled the orgies OF
the French reyoiutionists during the
reign Of terror" and lacked only the
power to erect the guillotiue and briug
to the block thousands of the best and
purest and most patriotic men in the pa
ton. They finally joined i'll an address
charging everybody with treason except
themselves, and demanding as q right
that negroes be admitted 80 social. civil
and political equality with the white
men who have established and fostcred
and preserved those institutions which
have given our country al the DO .7-er aud
glory it ever enjoyed.
The affair was gotten up with 4 vast
flourish OF trumpets, and although orig
inally intended simply as convention of
southern desperadoes who had been ia SO
to both sides during the late war. aud as
afording an opportunity for fsw dis
coursged army suffers who had opsned
shops in the South and failed To receive
that consideration to which they thought
their loyalty" entitled them, TO pour
out their spleen against the President
and the constitution loving people of the
land, the radical party of the northern
States attempted to give it national
Significance. Delegates were chosen by
the people or appointed by the loyal
lGovernorsSof the northern States, and
the mestihg assumed the shape of a na-
tional convention Of that political party

Prussian Audacity.

The brilliant andacity of the. Prussian
Government has astonished Europe, and
If there could be General as competent
in the field as Bismark in the Cabinet,
Germany would no longer be a thing OF
shreds and patches. A late Vienna let
ter says
The audacity of Prussia, threatened
in rear by Hanover and the disaffected
Provinces of Schleswig and Holstein,
and confronted from this side by all the
rest of Germany, with Austria at their
head, is astonishing il it were only in
good cause it would be sublime
Though. these various Powers combined
have at least 100000 more men in the
field than Prussia can count, yet she
sends her riltimatum simultaneously y to
Hanover, the two Hesses aud Saxony,
and, since il is not accepted, marches
the second day after, two hostile col
umns, one into Saxony, the other into
Hanover, while she had already thrown
third into Holstein and driven out both
the Austrian contingent of 5000 men,
and the Austrian Governor. Germany
stands aghast at such an exhibition Of
boldness, and Austria, though it is now
the fourth day since, yet stands still and
wonders, and has not moved the head
quarters of the army, or even thrown
forward a detachment, at the last ad-

Health of New Orleans.

The New Orleans Times of the 18th
says of the health of that city
We have thus far passed the half of our
summer season in this city, without the
slightest manifestation of any epidem-
ical disease and with remarkable ex-
emption from complaints which are quite
prevalent in other localities The me
neurological or atmospheric character
istics of the season have been remarkably
similar to those of the summer of the
memorable epidemic Of 1868, when over
10000 people perished, and the disease,
commencing about the first Of May,
attained its climax about the middle of
July There was then the same late
summer, cool winds, early high water
and frequent showers, which have marked
the spring and summer of the present
year Still we have not heard of even
an imaginary case of yellow fever, and
there are no grounds to apprehend the
presence or occurrence of a single case
of that disease And yet the upaocli-
mated population was never greater, nor
can we say that local causes, to which
many ascribe the origin and encourage
ment of this epidemic, have not existed
to a very large extent
