EDITOR BULLETIN-In the last Is
cue of the BULLETIN, in giving an &C
count of the so-called convention here
on the 18th inst, you say, "a small
crowd of small men undertook to cap
ture the convention" You say fur
ther, that an attempt was made to
bull-dOze the convention and to keep
them from expressing their opinions
In a lawful manner. As | was en-
gagged i'll what you see fit to call ''bull-
doing" and every disreputable con-
duct" it is but just to myself that the
whole truth should be made Known.
Those present at the time know the

had been informed that a meeting of
state-credit democrats would be held
after the speaking was over, and l

ernatorial candidates were to COM
mcnce speaking, to my establishment
/ found that Il chairman, secretary
and committee on resolutions had
been appointed, and the committee
had retired. A number of gentlemen
asked me what it all meant. The
courtroom was then about full of
people, who had come to hear the
speaking. For information, I asked
the chair the object of the meeting,
rs had heard conflicting statements
as to what was to be done. The chair
declined to give the information in
quired for, and replied that would
find out what its objects were when
the committee on resolutions returned.
/ then arose and stated to the chair
that l had been informed that it was
intended to appointan executive com
mittee and delegates to the conven-
ton to meet at Jackson on the 23d
inst; to which the chair replied that
I was correctly informed. 1 then

CHARLESTON, 8. c., Oct. 2S.-The Re.
publican State Committee to-day dis
covered most ingenious plot to dis
franchise Republican voters and at the
same time provide an excuse to escape
the penalties prescribed by the Law
bearing upon the subject.
The Commissioners of Elections, who
are in every Republican county ex-
clusively Democrats, noted for partizan
fervor and light eonscienoes, are authsr.
ICED to appoint the managers OF election
In their several sounties.
While the statutes prescribe penalties
for refusing or negisctiBg to appoint
managers, there Is no Law for making
the appointments, and the scheme Is to
delay appointing them until 1t can be
claimed 10 be too late to 6ll the vacsn-
eies occasionsd by rsfusals to serve.
As all those appointed to Republi.
can preeinsts are instructed to refuse,
no election can be held at such places. III

clined to aualify, and the Commission-
ers positively refuse to appoint others
for the reasons named.

New Castle, Oct. 30.--The Levy Court
held special session to day fer the
purpose Of considt ring tho putting on
Of the names Of properly assessed per

Of the Peace Springer.
President Bright presided, and he
stated that he had seen Mr.. Gray, At
torney Of the Court about the matter Of
putting names, left off by the Clerk OF
Peace, upon the duplicates, and he
had said that the Court had a perfect
right to correct any errors which the
record shows have been made.
Austin Harrine ton, E5q,, made long
statement to the Court, urging them 10
issue an order that the corrections be
made and that the names Of persons
wi, had been properly assessed be put
upon The duplicates, and the eollec-
tors instructed to receive the certificates.
a. He stated that he had written to Mr..
Gray asking him to give him his views
upon the question, but that no reply
had been received and Mr. Gray was al
present in Dover. He said he made nc
charges against the late Clerk Of the
Peace but it was fact that in copying
the names to the duplicates many hsd
been dropped of, and thus citizens wh'
had a perfect right to vote were dis
franehised.
After several resolutions we're pre-
sented, 1t was afterwards decided thai
