THE RADICALS—CIVIL WAR, *«•
The-Radieial members of Congress, Are
about taking the second step in their plot
of civil war. : Their first step was to drive
through the House, by whip and spur, cut
ting oft’all debate under the previous ques
tion, feeneral Paine’s resolution- calling on
all tho-Northern States (now for .‘the 1 most
part ruled by Radical Governors a‘nd Radi
cal Legislatures) to organize, discipline,and
equip* thfiir, militia; and scattering among
them tWo-thirds of all the arms, ordnance,
and ammunition, now in the hands of the
geuernl government. Qn-the testimony of
Air. Raymond, “this act was mtcuded, by
those who secured its passage, as the first
step towards preparation for smother civil
,war.” .* .
,Their second step, disclosed recently, will
be taken by the passage of Thaddeus Sto-
ven’s-joint- resolution, which, in the lan
guage of Speaker Colfax, “confers addition
al powers which might prove to be of great
consequence” upon the President of the Sen-
C3gT“ We publish oil onr.first. page, Jef
ferson Davis’ account of his capture, tfec.—
It will prove to be quite interesting'to those
of our readers who have never read it.
THE PHILADELPHIA NATIONAL
CONVENTION.
In the Southern States active preparations
are being taken to he represented in the Na
tional Convention which is to assemble in
Philadelphia on the 14th of August next,
and from present indications, we may anti
cipate that it'will bo one of the most impos

in this country. This is no party Conven

Dear-Patriot:—Having an hoar at my command
this morning, I Corap’y^withtny promise'to'write to
you from this place, though I have nothing interest'
ing to tell you.
We had a Tory quiet Fourth, with tho except ion
of ft few drunken darkies and sdt&iers. Tlioy fired
a cannon all day to the great disgust of all nervous
people and dogs, and at night sent up * few rockets,
which, like the Confederacy, so-called, blazed bright
ly for a short time, and then sank in darkness.
The freedmen are doing only tolerably here.—
They have a great antipathy'to hiring themselves
out, and^eem to think*hoy arb not free unless they
keep AoJ&e. They huddle together in every old shan
ty they can rent, sometimes two' or - three families,
living in one room, where they enjoy the filth, mis
ery and wretchedness accompanying such house
keeping. TJ19 consequence is great sickness‘pre
vailing amongst them. The relations between the
white and black people, are more friendly than eonld
be expected, when you take Into^ consideration the
fact that ever since the close o(tho war,' we' haye
had soldiers and Yankee school'marma in onr midst,
ever ready to stir up hatred in the hearts of the
blacks. They have several day and Sabbath schools
established in tho place, and tbedntter have white
teachers—ladies qml gentlemen—poor, miserable
rebels wl;o tramp through mud, sand, rain, or sun
shine, to the Church, where they spend an* hour or
two every ^obbath morning with the little woolly
heads teaohing them to read and spell—talking to
them, praying for them, &c. Rut, then, of course
this Is all done to show how Southerners hate the
darfies. .*' '*•«
Wc have had quite a serfes of accidents in tho last
week or two. First, a gentleman formerly from
your place. Capt. L. E. Johnson, was riding in his
oarriagethrough the simt, when some little frecd-
raen, or freedboys, threw a pack of fire crackers
under his horses’ feet, which caused them to run.—
Capt. Johnson was thrown from the carriage and
very severely injured—his leg being terribly shat
tered. It was fortunate for the offenders that they
were black; had they been white no doubt they
would have been punished. N*xt, n littlo girl abont
eight years old, climbed np on the curb to peepinto
the well, in search of truth, 1 expect, and poor
child she found it, forche lost her balance and fell
in; when they got her out life was extinct. Her
soul had gone to a world where all is truth.
1 I now come to the last of the accidents, though
this is of such frequent occurrence that perhaps I
am wrong to class it with tho accidents. At all
events, no one seems inclined to pfoftt by flie ex
perience of those gone'before, but each one wants
to “see the ftitare” for themselves, Ilowpvjr, I
will slop moralizing, aud keep you in suspense no
longer. On last Tuesday, abont half-past two
o’clock, or in time fan the criminal to make her es
cape with her accomplice on the Quincy 1
young lady in the presence of several friends who
were weeping around her, but whoso tears failed to
her from her fatal purpose, deliberately
mit‘ed_ matrimony! This last Is the most
serious of the series, (no fun intended—I dcs
them,) that is in my estimation, and I nm not an
d maid, either. - ■
Our little city has much improved in the last
year, business being brisk, and everybody
ing to do well. We support two newspapers, one
semi, the other tri-weekly. This is the best evi
dence I could give you of the intelligence of the in
habitants. One, the “Flpridian.V has as*campress.
A friend and my self wont in the office the other day
to see them work off the paper. I looked at the
press and engine very attentively, and being a wo
man, of course understood all its ramifications
few minutes. -1 know directly whose tho .trAv/ you
call’em, belongs-—what the duty ofthe thirty ’i
is, and nil the rest. I cannot think the proper
names of the other parlsnf the machinery now, bnt
at the time I explained It nil to tho entire satisfac
tion of my friend, who announced herself ns
jiASt ns wise as she was before, so I did not

also pleased with my explanation, judging from

The Great Eastern had lait* nearly three

Nothing further had transpired about
ace negotiations between Xapolcon and
the cont endi ng powers. The Prussians had
defeated the Federals in a sanguinary; con-,
diet at O sell often burg, and marched towards
rankfort, which was evacuated by the Fed-
fals. The I>iet had removed to Augusten-
burg. The Prussian headquarters are at
Brtinn, Austria. It is reported that the
Prussians occupied Iglaw! ’
The London Times thinks the Prussians
will be before. Vienna by the 17th, and
doubts whether the Austrians can withstand
the victorious Prussians. Cialdirii occupied
Padua and Vicenza, towns on the Railroads

It is declared in diplomatic circles at Pe

I long since expressed tlio opinion that
the States were entitled to their representa

a v?o?a,ioti qfgood frith and of the obligs-
tious of the constitution; and that a persis-
tencq in sneh a policy must lead to conse
quences most disastrous to thd peace of the
country These nntT other considerations

\ Sectional Fight.
A very nice Httje seotional- fight is going
on between Nt w England and i’ednsylva-
nia,0ti thoTarift' question. This is to lie rc-
"retted, for neetipnal bias, as maileby
Sontli Carolina as far back ns 1S2P, was the
nest egg of tins rebellion. Alluding to tlte
difference on this issue between Fetmsvlva-
nia and New Jinglaud, the .Chicago Trioune
‘New England and Pennsylvania have got
into a wrangle about the tariff on coal.—
New England manufacturers want, cheap
coal and want to get it from Nova Scotia.
The Pennsylvania miners want coal tobe
dear, and want to compel Now England to
buy of them. Mr. Morrill, the champion
and defender of the. new prohibitory tariff
bill, Wants to make high . prices for every
thing in tbo shape of manufacturers, niid
leave coal raining to shift for itself: I) r .
Kelly, of Pennsylvania, wants to make the
highest possible prices for-coal ns well as
for cloth and iron, and so ho and Jlr. Mor
rill have a hot, debate over the coal ques
tion. *' ■" 1
Nothingponld expose more thoroughly
the utter hollowiiosk and dishonesty of the
prohibitory bill,than this wrangle abont
