LATEST TRLEGRAMS.
MIDNIGHT DISPATCHES
YlrslnIn RadIcal Convenilon.

RICHMOND, August 1.-The Convention
reassembled on the Square at 10 O'Clock,
about two thousand persons being present.
DE-. Bayne, of Norfolk, moved, as the work
of the convention was over, it adjourn sine
die.
Mr.. Hunnicutt opposed the motion, but
the motion was carried.
The convention then resolved itself into
a mass meeting and was addressed by John
NJ. Bolts, who read an address and plat
form, which was submitted to the meeting
for its endorsement, but was Withdrawn, the
opposition being so violent.
Mr.. HunniCutt opposed the adjournment
and said his reason was to give Mr.. Bolts
and others, who had not participated in the
proceeding, an opportunity to be heard,
and hoped the convention was, not afraid
to hear what they had to say. If there
was any political tomahawk between Bolts
and the Republican party it was now
buried, and the party will carry the State
by 10000 majority, and the ship was large
enough to carry all the shades of party
differences. This party favored disfran-
chising only those Rebels who would talk
against Congress and the Republican party,
and would not, like Longstreet, work in any
harness for reconstruction. At this point
there were loud cheers for Bolts, who re-
ceived three cheers by a portion of the
crowd and then followed a scene of con
fusion. A colored speaker attempted to
address them, but was cried down, with
shouts of Vote down the resolution Vote
it up! Vote Bolts down Mr.. Bayne said
he believed the wing of the party repre-
scented by Bolts wanted, without mingling
in convention, to speak under its auspices.
The vote was taken and the convention
adjourned sine die.

Alas, poor country,
THE NATIONAL nERr

We publish this morning copious ex
tracts from pamphlet under the author
ship Of Aristides, proposing for the ex-
tinguishment Of the national debt, and
the promotion Of the commerce and
business Of the country The main
feature--its gradual liquidation by an
issue Of legal tender currency to the
holders of government bonds-is similar
to that suggested by our correspondent
Of yesterday, from whom we will publish
another article tomorrow.
The writer Of this pamphlet we un-
derstand to be citizen Of one of the
extreme Northern States, who has given
the subject much study and reflection.
Speaking of the objections which have OF
may be urged to the payment Of the
bonded debtin greenbacks, he says
The only plausible objection to this
plan of national deliverance and relief is,
that, though it may not be repudiatioH
it would be bad faith to this class Of pub
lie creditors. Whether this would be 50
or not, it cannot be denied that the gov
eminent has already set the example
In reference 10 other classes Of creditors,
both public and private, and no good
reason can be assigned for excepting
these bond holders, who, as already
shown, are not more worthy than others
When the war broke out, States, coun-
ties, cities and other corporations as well
as individuals, were owing debts both at
home and abroad, TO our citizens and t.
foreigners. These debts were all, prin-
cipal and interest, payable in gold-some
by express provision, others by implica-
ton of law But in violation Of the letter
and of the spirit of the contract, Congress
declared them payable in paper Of its
own issue. which, for a considerable time
during the conflict, was worth only forty
cents in the dollar, and which is not yet
nor has 1t ever been, at par 1et IL q

BAD BUSINESS FOR A JUDGE-We I'M
derstand that Judge NJ. NJ Brien, Of our
Circuit Court, addressed a large CON
course Of col0red voters at the Gun Fac
tory on Wednesday night, IN which he
was grossly unfair toward the truth as
well as Conservatism. He stated with
out reserve and in the most emphatic
manner that the negro who voted the
Conservative ticket would vote for his
own e-enslavement-and that every one
did 50 deserved to be put back in slavery.
This groundless piece of clap-trap was one
of the standing cat-calls of petty Radical
speakers during the canvass, and came
we'll enough from ofice-seeking scamps
and party hacks Of that organization /;
but we were surprised to learn that a
man of Judge Brien's standing in the
community, and his official station should
be guilty of repeating so gross a labrica.

In the meanwhile each annual issue will

which will also be increased in proportion
to the stimulation of enterprise and activity

the credit of the republic. Thus these
stated issues of legal tender currency will
swell the volume Of circulation without al
all increasing the liability of the govern
ment whilst their perpetual absorption in
