The convention of delegates from the re-
constructed states met at Jones hall to-day
and was called to order by Senator Clayton
of Arkansas, who nominated Hon. VIM.
Markham of Georgia for temporary chair
man. II. S. Chamberlain White of Ten
nessec and ]. II, Emerson, colored, of
Arkansas, were chosen temporary secrcta-
iies.
A committee of one from each state on

The committee on credentials reported
list of delegates appointed.
North AID South Carolina were unrepre-
scented Florida sent one delegate, and Vir-
ginia two.
A committee of three from each state
were appointed for the Improvement of the
organization.
The convention then adjourned until
p. m.
After reassemblng the following letter
was read to the contention from the re-
publican congressional executive commit
tee:
To -, delegate to the Chattanooga
conventional Oct. 18Th: Sir-Considerate
men who have given the subject attention
regard the movement for convention of
southern republicans as of very great I'M
portance to the section of the country to
be represented. They believe that if calm
and considerable counsels prevail and dele
gates come together possessed of
facts bearing upon the condi-
ton of southern communities and
lay them before the country in authentic
and concise form, an impression will be
made which may favorably affect the
judgment of the well-disposed in every
section. Al this convention record should
be fully and honestly made up showing all
hindraaces to material, moral and intel
lectual progress with which republicans
have had TO contend, what progress has
been made and whether in the states and
sections where democracy has control
of any of the great interests of
society have prospercd more and which if
any have been depressed also whether
persons or property haye been more or less
secure, and reasons therefore whichever
fact may be. Outragcs of all classes
should be carefully reported, whether re-
sulting in crime or extending only to in
Limitations the spirit and purpose of &C.
ton of the legislative, judicial and cxecu-
tive departments should be reviewed. All
in fact that tends TO disorder, carclessness
or oppression may well be considered upon
the whole record thus honestly and fairly
made up, the considerable judgment of the
American people may be safely revoked.
To sincere and thoughtful statesmen who
will assemble on this occasion. these sug-
gestions arc believed TO be entirely unnec-
essary, but lest some should deem them
unwarranfed, here state that that they are
suggestions only and that they are submit
ted with great Difference but with the sim
cere hope that they may, to some extent,
aid in securing careful preparation for tho
work of the convention and full attend
ance on its sittings.

Dull-Polce business.
There is some doubt whether any horses
were burned at the fire last night. Some
assert positively that there were, others as
scrt as positively that they know all the
horses were promptly and safely removed
from the barn. The rumors in reference
to it are so conflicting as to leave the mat
ter in uncertainty.
Policeman Matthews did valiant and
good service last night in protecting and
saving property. He proved, on that oc-
cason, that he fully understands his duty
at fire. Some policemen, heretofore,
have neglected to save property or in any
manner protect it.

We are happy 10 announce that course
of historical lectures will be delivered in
the Opera House in this village, six in
number, in the month of December next,
by DIR. John Lord, of New York. DR..
Lord is well known as the prince of lee
turers on historical subjects, and has won
the highest praise from the multitudes who
have heard him in our large towns and
cities, for the able and popular manner in
which he presents his subjects. We have
no doubt a great success will attend his
course in this town, and we are pleased to
add that the committee having this matter
in charge have resolved to put the price
for admission so low that all can attend
without feeling it burden to enjoy so
rich and rare an opportunity for both en-
tertainment and instruction. No spirit of
speculation has prompted those OF our
citizens who have moved in this matter,
but simply desire to elevate the taste and
instruct the understandings of our people
in the most economical and agreeable man
ner.
We shall refer to this subject hereafter

The Supposed Incendiary Arrested.

There was a strong suspicion that the
fire at Richardson's stable last evening was
the work of an incendary. Suspicion
pointed to one of Mr. Richardson's en-
ployes named Edward King. He was
missing about the time of the fire or at
least soon after the alarm was given. 1t
was ascertained after the fire had been
partly quelled that he had driven one of
Mr.. Richardson's horses to Mr.. Keley's,
>syer the creek, where he put him in the
barn and had gone to bed himself. Sus-
picion pointed toward him, taken in con-
nection with his strange conduct. lie was
arrested at Mr.. Kelley's and taken to Jail.
King asserts his innocence and says Mr..
Richardson knew he was going to Kelley's
with the team.

groes who signed Pinchback's address,
have been removed from office by Kellogg.

tanned, but knives and pistols were freely
used, many being seriously wounded.

there fear another outbreak. A fight was
also reported Sunday afternoon at Point a
