THE THIRD DIsTRICT.-The Yer
mont Standard says:
The republicans of the Third District
hold their convention, for the nominal
ton of member of Congress and elector
at Stowe, on the 18th of August. There
is not to be any opposition, so far as APP
pears, and we certainly hope not, to the
denomination of the present member,
Hon. w. c. Smith, Of st. Adams.
The Free Press few days since spoke
in similar terms respecting the antici-
pated action of the convention. No op-
position is contemplated to Mr.. Smith
denomination, we presume. There is
no ground for opposition to proceed up
on. Mr. Smiths course, as far as we
know, has been entirely satisfactory tc
a large majority in the District

OUR SOUTHERN LETTER. The letter
from Charleston, :. G., in our columns
to-day, will be read with much interest,
as portraying wildly thc political feel
ing in that reconstructed locality OF the
union. The feeling of the South Caro-
lima Democracy does not seem to be
much different from the feeling which
obtained through the South during the
rebellion. 1t may be natural, in the
South, but it is not therefore cordial
union feeling, or one which would up
hold very cordially the cause of the I'm
ion, now triumphant if sustained as
there is reason to expect it will be iii
the coming election. AS an index of
Southern feeling the letter is Il valuable
contribution.
