his Office as absolute as sovereigns do their

hard blows, and his left eye clothed in
beautifully blended hues Of red, white,
and blue.
Mrs. Doherty appeared and stated
"Mr. Doherty, nearly kilt, now. lay at
home on his bed, not able to move, only to
turn over from one side to the other" III
consequence of this critical condition of
Mrs. Doherty's spouse the case was con-
tinued until Monday, although John Rey-
nolds protested that "Pat hadn't been
hurted a bit; he had only bin bate WE'LL"

THE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.
ARRIVAL OF DELEGATES.
sKIRMISHING COMMENCED.
An Engagement Imminent.

The all-absorbing topic of conversation
ia Richmond for the past few days has
been the "Convention of the Union
men of Virginia called to meet on Thurs
day next. AS the time approaches, the
public mind seems to be more Interested
on the subject, and increased anxiety is
manifested to know what will be the action
of the Convention.
A large number of delegates have al
ready arrived in the city, and caucuses
and wire-pulling arc the order of the day.
Hon. John NJ. Bolts is here in his capacity
as foreman of the grand jury OF the
United States Circuit Court, nearly
every member of the Republican State
Central Committee is present, and
meetings are regularly held at rooms
in the hotels. Some of the leaders IN the
{" Albemarle or " cooperation move
ment, among whom are several members
of the State Senate and House OF Dele-
gates, are also on hand. Hunnicutt Is
actively engaged in laying his plans, ana
seems confident that he will be aDle TO
carry the Convention for his own pecuuar
views. ,..
From the present prospect and the NUT
terings which escape from the Republican
The daily dispatch. [volume] (Richmond [Va.]) 1850-1884, 1867-07-29

camp we are led to believe that perfect
unanimity is not likely to prevail. This
trouble it was expected would come OF
an attempt on the part of many delegates
from the country to make it strictly con-
vention representing the different counties
and cities according to population, and
thus acting and voting; while another por-
tion of the party, generally alleged to be
led by Hunnicutt, pronounce it nothing
more nor less than "mass" meeting or
convention, to which everybody is in
vited, and wherein things are to be done
in the "mass." Some suppose now that
the predictions based upon these rumors
are not to be verified. The Whiq of few
days ago republished the call for this con-
vention of unconditional Union men,"
who were determined to take the Govern
mcnt and it's Offices out Of the "hands Of
those who had brought ruin upon the
country" and confessed, we inferred, that
the terms Of the invitation were general,
and that the appointment of delegates was
not important, as everybody was invited.
The Neu Nation of Saturday pronounces
it "mass convention" whose numbers
will be so large that unity of opinion on
all subjects cannot be expected but it
hopes for union Of sentiment at least and
its reverend editor offers up prayer for
"peace and harmony" in it's deliberations.
Mr.. Hunnicutt evidently intends, by ma
king it mass convention, to exclude the
" Albemarle" men and others whom he
calls "respectablcs." In q recent
harangue to a large and highly excited as
OF nh p1, ic hot colf
and correspondent of the New York
Tribune were the only white persons pre-
sent, he defined his position in regard to
the list of August Convention, stating he
would stand by the 18th of April plat
form, and all who did not were not Of his
flock. He treated any attempt to infringe
on that sacred document" or to break
up his party with the utmost scorn and
contempt. They were too strong, too
powerful in numbers, to admit of the pro-
liability of any such attempt being made.
He told his hearers to 60 to that conven-
tion to watch their rights, to defend their
rights, and-as if entertaining the idea
that there might be a necessity-he add
ed, "and, if need be, to tight for your
rights"
Quite large number of the respectable
white Republicans oppose the mass con-
vention, and urge that all who now in good
faith desire to come in should be admitted,
whatever may have been their political
opinions in the past. Should they insist
upon this course Hunnicutt avows his in
tention to crowd the African church, if
necessary, ooiM delegates from Richmond,
and thus have mass convention after his
own heart, and exclude the "co0peration-
lists" from all participation in the delibe-
rations. In this case split is Inevitable;
and some of the most prominent Republi
cans in the State will be among the Sc
ceders. Two parties will thus be formed,
and Hunnicutt will be left with his colored
followers.

THAT DREADFUL RIoT.-A dreadful riot
is reported at Rogersville, in East Tennes-
see, where speech by Emerson Etheridge
was interrupted by some one in the audi;
ence; the lie was given and returned, and
finally the meeting separated itself into
Radical and Conservative camps, which
onened fire on each other. Two persons
were killed outright, and thirty-seven were
wounded, seven of whom it is thought will
die. We have had so much experience OF
the untrustworthy character of the press
dispatches from that part of the country
that we defer conjecture as to the party
most to blame for this affair until we,are
in fuller possession of the facts.-Ne''

WHAT IF NEGROES SHOULD BE ELECTED
TO CONGRESS ?-Bennett's Herald answers
as follows:
"We apprehend that the result will
be general rejection against the Repnbll-
can party in the northern States; for we
know that there is a stronger wall of white
prejudice against the negro in the North
than exists in the South"
"This will, in all probability, be the So
luton of the experiment of the political
organization of the blacks against the
whites in the South-a reaction of the
whites against the blacks and the Repub-
lican party in the North"

1t is the fresh issue of the hour, and is
bound to win. 1t is as sure to prevail as
there is feeling in the people and oppres-
sion in the taxes. The people will not
stand the inequality now existing between
capital and labor-untaxed capital and
taxed labor. There must be equality OF
burthcns, or there will be something capi-
talists will tremble at.

- I assure you that the plan of pay
ing off the interest debt in greenback mo-
ney-the same kind of money the Govern
ment got in exchange for the bonds-is
growing daily in popularity the more it is
thought over. 1t is regarded to be eni-
nently just, and all idea that it would
make money too plenty is ridiculed. Re-
publicans here say the Enquirer is on the
right tack now. Even the Republican
paper here is constrained to favor your
ideas on the subject. 1t is so fully peo-
ple's movement that am not surprised at
its general popularity.

couldn't give her the required change !;

kicked her several times, and persisted in
his unmanly conduct until police officer
