Memphis, Slay 13,1807.
Tito biennial session of tho Southern linptiat
Convention, now sitting in this city, is an event
of no small importance. Tho bringiug together
of two hundred ministers of any denomination
of Christians naturally attracts attention, and
makes an epoch in tho history ot a country not
soon to be forgottcu. Every Southern State is
represented, and each by her most distinguished
diviues. I notice in the delegation irom Geor
gia the familiar faces of Rev. W. T. Brantly and
.1. J. Toon, Esq., of Atlanta. A resolution is
under consideration setting apart Saturday be
fore the last Sabbath in June as a day of fasting
and prayer in all Baptist churches throughout
the South. The question of sustaining the South
ern Baptist Theological Seminary, at Greenville,
South Carolina, lias been thoroughly discussed,
and the members of tho Convention have shown
their zeal in the cause, and an earnest determina
tion to sustain the Seminary, by subscribing
over $10,000 among themselves. A resolution
has been passed changing theirsessious to annual
in place of bienuinl, and the next to bo held
in May, with the Seventh Baptist Church of
Baltimore. The most rcmarakable part of their
proceedings, so far, is tho resolution of Rev. Ib
Furtnun, President of Furman University, South
Carolina, to tho following effect:
Resolved, That it is oqr duty, as Christians, to
labor and pray more earneslly for the conversion
of the Jews.
The reverend divino spoke at length in sup
port of his resolution, paying a high tribute to
the Jews, and suggesting the sending of mission
aries among them, as m do the heathens. Docs he
not know that they are the most Intelligent and
generally educated class of people in the world ?
However, the resolution was well meant, and
was unanimously supported by the convention,
several other members speaking in its behalf.—
Rev. Mr. Rciitroe,of Alabama, took the occasion
to remark that when he was about leaving his
home for the convention, a Hebrew citizen of
his town, hearing that lie had not sufficient means
to defray his expenses, obtained the deficiency
from his own people and gave it to him. This
is hut another instance of many that have come
under my own observation ot the liberality of
the Jews. I have long sinco changed my no
tions ot their pdnuriousncsS And love of gain, for
respect for their indomitable energy and perse
verance in placing themselves above the reach of
want—a duly which every man owes himselel—
and their cheerful liberality in filling every de
mand made upon them by charity.
Business is about as Hat as you can imagine.—
There was considerable stir in tho cotton market
a week ago, caused by the sudden rise, hut with
little ol the staple iu the city And now arriving,
the field in which to operate was so small that it
soon subsided. Rents are falling. As a general
thing tlie reduction is 331 per cent., but iu many
instances it is more than that. The true remedy
tor the cxhorbltunt high rent?, heretofore charged
in this city, lias at last been brought nbout by
the number of buildings exceeding tho demand.
Business houses ure being daily closed, " To
Rent” posted on the door, there to remain until
our impoverished section gains her wonted
strength and thrift. New buildings, however,
are going up, capitalists being encouraged by the
diet that people—always ready to welcome any
thing new—will leave their stands for new and
more showy ones, which n proluso quantity of
paint and the modern “ ginger bread " style ol
architecture gives.
The local politics of tiie State are demanding
more attention than they have since the surrender.
The conservatives have gone to work in earnest
to elect their candidates at the coming election,
to do which they nro besmearing themselves
with much of the filth of the dirty radicals.—
Mr. Elheridgo has started on Ids canvass
oi tho Stato, and speAks in this oily next
Friday. West and Middle Tennessee will un
doubtedly givo him a majority; how radical
East Tennessee, where tho largest number ol

An item for the wearers of chignons, water

ceived in this’eity, lrom Europe, smelt so badly
on being opened, that parties around it almost
fainted. It was found that the hair was impreg
nated with myriads of little insects, such as lias
recently been discovered to he generated by hu
man liair. Somo inventive Yankee ought to be
ahlu to prodneo a substitute for the original, and
thereby do nway with this shocking practice.
Edwin Forrest is drawing largo ltoases at the
new Memphis Theater, at double tho usual price
of admission. I thought I had seen some very
fair acting in try time, but Forrest’s representa
tions cannot bo compared to any of it. Ho lias
certainly mastered the art. Ifis very supporters
on the stage, stand in awe wlieu he speaks.—
Over sixty, and quite gouty, he is not now suited
to many of the standard plays, but ids percep
tions of tho characters which lie represents, are
so perfect, that in our . admiration we lose sight
oi these failings. His engajpmeiit is for ten

The Gold Placers of tlie South,
Not by legislation alone is to be worked out

us, Hint Hie gold fields of North Carolina and
Hm placers of Georgia givo bettor appearances
of profitable returns timn the mines of Colorado
or California, with the exception of a few espe
cially .ticli districts.
We hail this turning of attention to tlie gold
fields ol Hie Soutli as a happy oinui for that
land—as a new nssurancu ot early and enduring
reconstruction—ns a new bond of peace and
Union; and we hope, in addition to these good
blessings for ns all, this new enterprise may prove
indeed a source of wealth to its active workers.
From .Maine, in tlie Northeast, to Alabama,
in the Southwest, tlie whole country is tra
versed by (lie Alleghany or Apalachian ridge
of mountains, through which runs a bell of
Irom twenty to fifty miles in width composed of
micaceous and metufnnrphic sandstone and cal-
eijerous sand-rock, lalcose, chloride siliceous,
hortiDiendio and micaceous slates, Ac., having a
general trend from the northeast to the south
west, and lonniug an unbroken series ol strata
belonging to the Taconic, Potsdam, or sub-
Silurian system.
Amongst this strata there are found numerous
veins of valuable ores, among which may be
enumerated iron, zinc, copper, lead, antimony
and bismuth, stiver and gold, Hie latter being
principally, found in wlmt is termed the gold
belt, or a series, of strata of from five to seven
miles in width, running parallel with tho main
zone, and developing gold as far. East as New |
Hampshire, where a mine is now being worked |
with some pretmise, showing it here upon tlie I
Potomac near Washington, nud in many loeali- !
ties d iwn through Virginia, hut making its
greatest development in Southwestern Carolina
and Northeastern Georgia.
Muu familiar with gold mining in Cnlilorniu
recently returned from North Carolina nssure ns
that, iu their belief, there are as good gold mines
in tlie lalter ns in the former Stale, if only work
ed with the same skill and perseverance. There
is hardly a stream in the counties of Moore,
Randolph, Montgomery, Davidson, Cabarrus and
Stanley, in Northwestern North Carolina, which
will not yield gold by “panning" the sands lrom
its bed. And the same is true of parts of Meck
lenburg, Unioii, Lincoln, Catawba, Rutherford,
Burke, Henderson, aud other counties iu tlie
same seclion of that State.
But the great gold licit ot tho Alleglmnies,: o
lar at present, as is known, makes ils richest de
velopment in the Northeastern portion of Goor-
uin, especially in those counties Watered by the
Chcslatuc River find ils tributaries, which, thus
far, have formed tin: celebrated gold diggings of
Georgia, and from which have been taken, within
the lust thirty years, at least twenty million i f
dollars of the precious metal, nnd which we.o
deemed of sufileienl importance by Hie govern
ment to induce it to erect a mine at Ditlilonega,
a mining town situated within three miles of tlie
Chestalce River and between two ol ils princi
pal tributaries, Cave Creek and the Yaltoola,
iroui the beds and hanks of which aud adjacent
hill-sides within au area of about five miles
square the most of this immense wealth was
taken.

lelt in his complete triumph and tlie downfall or
the Brownlotv oligarchy. Mr. Leltwich, for
Congressman from tills district, and Messrs.
Smith, Able nnd Coleman, to represent Shelby
county in the Legislature—all on (lie conserva
tive ticket—will bo elected beyond peradventurc.
The radicals are strong enough to hold conven
tions and nominate candidates, and ure doing
their inmost to elect them; but tlie " rebel ” ele
ment is too strong for them, in spite of their
Franchise law. Elect u conscrvaiivc Governor,
ami this section of tho State will not be disunited
as it isTtow, by having radical officers to admin
ister the laws, as it will surely never elect such
lo fill tlieso offices. I havo said this much with
out any reference to the negro vote. It is he-'
lieved Hint that will also go conservative; hut it
is impossible to form any correct judgment ol
how nnd how many ot these poor, deluded den
tures will he voled. Tlie radicals count largely
on tiieir votes, and some are of the opinion that
lin y will obtain a majority sufficient to overbal
ance the conservative whites.
Tlie queslion of paving the streets has been
settled, for the lime, by the contractors lor Se
cond street commencing tlie work on that tho
roughfare. We will soon have n specimen of
the Nicholson pavement in Memphis. Tlie trou
ble between tho city authorities and tho Street
Railway Company, has been decided in favor of
tlie latter, which gives them the use of Mailt
street without any regard to its being paved.—
Tho company refuse to pay any part of thfe ex
pense of paving, and until their uct of incorpo
ration can be so altered us to force them to bear
their share of Hie tux, that thoroughfare will
likely remain os it is—a quagmire iu rainy
weather, which is os ’quickly turned into a bur
den of Intolerable dust by a few days of sun
shine.
The health of the city is good. Now and then
we hear a case of cholera reported, hut it gene
rally comes from somo nervous individual whose
anxiety causes him to anticipate another visita
tion of that dreadful sconrge this summer and
loll. If it visits the United States this year 1
have no doubt Memphis will be one of the sul-
lerera, and it is well enougli our citizens should
be alarmed in lime, if it would only cause them
to make the proper provision. This it does not
do, and we may as well keep quiet and take the
eltancoa.
A very prominent physician of this city ha.
recently propounded an original theory in re
gard to the cause of rheumatism. He says it is
caused by a poison which collects in a little hug
just under the heart of a person, and when the
hag bureu or overflows it causes rheumatism in
the parts of the body to which tlie poison is car
ried, and when it is transferred through the
blood to diflerent parts ot the system, the rheu
matism changes lta scat, as W« notice in many
Tho Doctor claims that ho has found

public amusement. We here see tlie curse ol
Iiiidiciilism, which lias so chuuged tlie docile and
contented nature ol llte negro as to make him
now a restless, craving creature of false ambi
tions aud impossible desires. The negro will bu
noue tlie happier because of his new condition
of freedom, ilut his Kndicul muster will drive
hint faster and taster, until lie shell have driven
him to his doom. The negro has the right to
prosper ami be happy; but wo apprehend that
the white race likewise have “tights” of their
own.

CHAPMAN k HUCKHK,
Missionaries Among the Negroes.—Tho
report of the American Missionary Association
duals mainly with ulluirs pertaining lo “the
nation’s wards." It says there are two thousand
teachers engaged in educating colored persons
iu the Sunlit, nnd that tlie field is large ctiimgli
for twenty thnutuuid. Two hundred thousand
wauls" have learned to read and write during
the lust two years, and the number of young
lfion.—
"wurds" needing education is one million.
Twenty thousand ’teachers are needed to educate
these, and the cost, reckoning $150 for each
teacher, would he $3,000,000. The receipts of
the Association Inst year were $353,000, uud
liir the first seven months of this fiscul year,
$145,000. The prospect ol raising Hie three
millions necessary to enlighten ull tlie dark
young ideas is not very cheering.
