Col. D. WYATT AIKEN, of Abbevle, who is the
canvasssr appointed for this Congressional Dis
trct under resolution of the State Convention,
was the last speaker introduced. His speech was
principally devoted to description of the present
state of affairs, aud his powers of invcctve bore
heavily upon Radicalism and its supporters. Some
of his remarks were injudicious, We thought, and
his advice in regard to certain strolling individu-
ais too extreme Otherwise, the speech of Col.
AIKEN was we'll received and created much ap-
plause
The President then announced that he was in
structed to offer resolutions endorsing the plat
form and nominees of the National Democracy,
which wero unanimously adopted amid great en-
thusasm, when the meeting adjourned The
baskets of provisions were then opened, and the
crowd scattered over the grounds in large and
small groups 10 partake of the abundance spread

tcndcnce of fair hands, awaited lhem and to which
ample justice was administered. This hospitality
to our distinguished guests is indubitablc evidence
that the gentlemen having charge of the arrange
mcnts were determined to maintain the good name
of Anderson, and we are confident that their encr-
gy and tact are duly appreciated. When the din
ncr was over, our guests departed by the several
trains and We trust carried with them pleasing re-
collections of the day and its incidents.
a meeting of the citizens was held in the Court
House at early candlclight, intended expressly to
instruct and edify the coored pcoplc-few of

was called to the chair and explained the object
of the meeting fully and explicitly, regrcttng that
there were not more of the class intended to be

highly appropriate TO the occasion, and received

WAsHINGroN, DC, January l5.- -
Congress was full Of interest to-day,
The Senate, after a long debate, passed
the bill to stop further contraction OF
the currency.
The most important vote taken was
on an amendment offered by Mr.,
Conkling, Of New York, to prohibit
the Secretary Of the Treasury from in
crcasing asWcIl rs diminishing thcvol-
umc Of currency, until authorized by
further legislation. This was voted
down-ycas %; nays 4.
The Senate bill now goes to the
House as amended; ..'
In the course OF to-'iay's debate. Mr..
Wilson, of Mass, made Il strong
speech in favor of the taxation of Gov
crnmcnt bonds.
The House was the scene to-day, Of
exciting interest, The supplemental
reconstruction bill. was taken up.
Fernando Wood had the floor, and
had proceeded but few moments,
when he pronounced the pending bill
:" a monstrosity, and the most infamous
one ofthe most infamous measures of
this most infamous Congress" The
words fell with startling effect on the
House and crowded galleries, and Mr..
Bingham, of Ohio, promptly called
Mr.. Wood to order, and asked, accor-
ding to the rules of the House, that
the words be taken down and reported
at the Clerks desk, which was done,
and the Chair General Garfield tenn
porarily presiding) ruled the words
out of order.
The question under the rules was
then put, "shall the member be al
lowed to proceed in order," and the
House by 80 to l0S--a party vote
refused to allow him to continue his
speech.
Mr.. Dawes. of Mass, then offered Il
resolution to censure Mr.. Wood for
the words which he had spoken, and
the Speaker reprimand him forthwith
at the bar of the House. No debate
followed, but Mr.. Kerr, of Indiana,
moved to lay the resolution on the ta-
BILE, which was lost. 4 vote was then
taken on the resolution and it passed
by yeas Ia, nays 36--a party vote.
The Speaker called Mr.. Wood to
the bar of the House, and that gentle
man, with the utmost nonchalante, left
the seat where he had been sitting as
still as a statute, and came down to
the end oftbe right hand aisle, where
placing his hand on a desk he re-
manned stationary. The utmost ST.
lence prevailed on the floor and in the
crowded galleries. He read an OK
tract from Mays Parliamentary Di-
gest, showing in what light his offense
was considered in Parliament, and in
other delibcrative bodies, wherein n
member had expressed himself in con-
tempt of them, and then added:

what fearful results all know. The

BLOODTHIRSTS

Because Congress would not per-
NIT Andrew johnson to place one foot
upon the North and the other on the
South and, like the bronze statue at
Rhodes, be allowed to straddlt the
continent, it has incurred the shower
baths of abuse and malediction which
rebels know so we'll how to loose.
Unlike May showers they deaden
and blight the growth Of reason and
chill the ripe buds of public opinion
that would burst forth and bear good
fruit. Like May showers they bring
forth from their hiding places the
crawling Shiny reptiles of treason,
that for their genial influence would
remain hidden in crustaceous oblivion.
We can listen with great forbearance
to the TRADE of those who mean busi-
ness when they talk ola war of races
or another attempt to revolutionize by
arms--mcn who in the recent struggle
bore arms against the Government, but
patience exhausts itself entirely when
our eye is caught by a paragraph such
as the following: "The elements of
strife which have been gathering for
the last two years are thickening fast.
Everything is ripe for a collision be-
tween executive and unlawful authori-
ty. We are not alarmists, but we
s0beray and calmly tell our friends and
the trieads of constitutional liberty,
that the hour of action has come. We
warn them in time, so that if the uorst
comes they may be prepared. The
people spoke in their majesty last Fall
against those men and their measures,
When they speak again, it will be
with the roar of cannon and the rat
tie of musketry. Let those who have
disregarded their warnings take heed !!
The people are in earnest, and if their
liberties can only be preserved by the
shedding Of blood they are ready"
