In a temperate and dignified address, they
set forth their claims as the originators, in
the large convention assembled at Little
Rock in 1869, of the Liberal movement IN
the United States. As the sole organiza.
ton represented at Cincinnati and the rep
resentGtives of large party constituency,
they expressed no complaint at the combi-
nation to exclude them, but declined enter
ing the joint convention either to become
an active party in the ignoring of their own
constituency, or through o withdrawal to
place themselves in the attitude Of disor-
ganizers. They therefore resolved to con-

WASH GToE, Aug. PA private dis
patch to yonr Washington bureau to- day
from prominent Republican in attend
ance at the Republican State Convention in
Columbia, South Carolina, gives most dis
couraging view of the political situation.
r. B. Elliott, he chairman of the conven-
ticn, and the present negro Congressman
from the OLD Calhoun district, made his
rulings entirely in the interests Of the ne
gro delegates and those white carpet-bag-
gers who were personally interested with
himself in foisting Moses upon the conven-
ton as q candidate of the old ring, which
has been already SO instrumental in piling
up the debt of she State. Moses, the cut
and dried nominee, was the Speaker of the
House, and is "a son of the Chief Justice of
the State. He was mainly instrumental in
flooding New York with State bonds last
summer, and used his official position to
screen the guilty parties from investigation.
The platform adopted is regarded by the
better class of Republicans with utter de-
spair, and as convincing proof that the
party has fallen into the hands of men
whose only motive is public plumber.
The boilers movement takes in all that
there is of responsibility in the Republican
party 10 the State. 1t includes Senator
Sawyer, Attorney General Chamberlain,
Senator Robertson, and all the prominent
native white Republicans who are not pre-
pared to see the State utterly given over to
carpet-bag and negro misrule simply be-
cause such elements have proved strong
enough to nominate regular ticket. The
boilers, according to these advices are
about to put an independent ticket in the
field, and are consulting with the Greeley
men with view to compromise on candi-
dates so as to receive their support.
A Very Sensible Letter from Ex.Goy-
ernOr Bigler of PennsyIvaDfa.
Special TO the Cincinnati Commercial
NEW YORK, Aug. Pax Gov. Bgler,
of Pennsylvania, has written letter defln-
ing his political views. He declares himself
warmly in favor of Greeley's election.
sEEvery utterance from Mr.. Greeley goes to
convince the public that 10 the exercise of
the Presidential office he will evince great
ability and courage, and an intelligence that
will be very delightful, after so long term
of stinted felicities about the Presidential
Mansion. But many better things will be
accomplished ia his election, and among
the best will be the Inauguration of an era
of good will covering the whole country,
and begettiDg true American fellowship
among citizens of all parts, and tending i
rectly, as such feeling will, to the relief of
weak and impoverished States, giving them
increased population, capital and general
thrift-a measure of vital Importance, not
only to such States, but affecting the growth
and general welfare of all the others.
"The frivolous jeers of Radicals about the
Democrats voting for one who so long re-
sisted them, DO not trouble me In the least;
honor and love that noble organization all
the more since 1t has shown its ability in an
exigency involving the highest interest OF
all, to put aside the past with its prejudices
and animosities, and take up the work
needful for the present and future, and in
approaching that work to manifest its sim
cerity by joining hands in a spirit of true
fellowship with all men who may desire to
participate in it. Though strangers here.
tofore, we want our children, in discussing
elections, to have some other topic than a
past war among themselves. Until this be
ACCOMPLISHED true brotherly affection among
the people of all sections of our great coun-
try can not be hoped for"
