We have laithrul carriers In Savannah and at Hilton Head, and through them v>e always servo regular subscribers first F'EXi ASI9.W - This is a dcw name for an oid tbmg It is expressive of a certain state of the Irish tnxd that Ttcurs periodicaliy, but without any Isope or rational expectation that a remedy will be found adequate to the restoration of lie public health or a return to us sanatite condition. With each attempt to remove the causes of Irish discontent there is re newed failures. It is now upwards of fifty years that Irishmen were hung for conspir acy. Lord Edward Filzgeraid paid the for feiture of his life on the scuff jld in 1798, for what was called treason. A large military organization preceded the array of 200,000 volunteers to sustain this conspiracy, yet it was dissolved and several of the leaders punished. In previous outbreaks in Ireland, there was a religious element that became blended with the politic al grievances. Catholic emancipa tion and Parliamentary reform were 'he watchwoids of opposition. Her Currans and Grattans, her Floods and Camclfords direct ed the popular mind. They shed a lustre on the Irish anuals. When O'Conuel placed him self at the head of the movement that subse quently convulsed the British throne his coad jutors were the men who forced the conces sion of Catholic Emancipation from the Duke of Wellington and Sir Robert Peel, and when “Young Ireland" essayed under the leadership of the Mitchells and the Meaghers to win the same distinction of liberators of Ireland they met with lamen table failure. Statu or ArrAiits in llavti.—Rev. Arthur Waring of Ilayti, now in New York, says it is 'he general opinion of the people of Ilayti that the present, revolution will succeed, and that President Geffrard will he overthrown. Mr. Waring represents the grievances of the revolutionists to be caused by the tendency oI Geffrard to hokl the reins of government during his lifetime, a provision not made by the original constitution of the republic, but one which was grafted upon it in an irregu lur manner. Another complaint against Geffrard is his evident desire to discourage till forms of Christianity save the Roman i '.it Go 1 it■ religion. Geffrard, instead of being u merciful man and a triend of education, is represented to be a ruthless ghedder of blood unnecessarily, and adverse to any educa tional scheme unless it is under direction of The Romau Catholic Church. Mr. Waring says Salnare is not nu ambitious man, but is moved by the most patriotic motives ; and he also states that among the aspirations of ltie people of Ilayti is a desire for a re union with the Dominican republic, the easteraand western sections of the island having been separated jn 1844 ; but the Dominicans will never consent to that as long us it is possible tor a President to retain office for life, which means monarchy mid absolutism. Important Decisions.— Attorney General Speed Ims decided that persons, who were formerly in tiie naval service of tiie United States aud accepted employment in the rebel service, and who have not forfeited their citi zenship by joining Ihe rebellion, can engage in any pursuit or occupation open to other citizens prior to receiving a pardon from the President. They are liable at any time, how ever, to be tried, convicted and punished for their treason. : [cOMMCNiCAT ED. ] Messrs. Editors —Please announce the following gentlemen, (who I am sure will re ceive the majority of the snftrages of their fellow-citizens) as candidates for the State Convention. Yvyi.lt Woodbbidoe, EvQ Henry Brigham, Esq. Wm. H. Davis, E9q. Law amt Order In Nashville. We take tke followine paragraphs Irom Ihe Nashville Dispatch. Judging lrom the local columns of the Nashville papers law and order is not vet thoroughly re-establish ed in that quarter: 1 hi: Court Martial Rtu-Diso Eitsssu rt a Mom—Osk Man Kitten.—We learu that tne building just occupied by the military courts for thfc district, was entered at noon’t half past ten o’clock, on Wednesday night, by twelve men who contemplated mischief of some kind. They first awakened Captain Pennybaker, on the first floor, and asked if the house was kepi by Mrs. Kennedy. He told i them that it was occupied bv the District 1 Court Martial, when they told him tha the'! lied, and called him numerous “pet-names t threatening to kill him if he did not show i them through the house Capt. P, told them ' ■that, they could go up stairs and aseertaiu from other officers the truth of his statement Twoof the gang went up and rapped on the bed room door of Judge Blackman. It was opened by the Judge, who asked them their business. They told hint that they wished to come in and used some very harsh and insulting language. The noise' aroused the other officers of the Commission, who at onre repaired to the scene of the disturbance, and remonstrated until forbearance ceased to be a virtue. The two men were forcibly push ed to the head of the slain, when they at tempted resistance, but were crowded down and one of the officers discharge! bis pistol at them, killing one of the scoundrels, whose name is Gregory, a member of the Ist l, h. Veteran Engineers. He ran to (he from door, where he dropped, and died in a few minutes after, the ball having passed through bis body. No cause can be assigned for this dastard >J conduct on the part of Federal soldiers rs;!* 11 '!', 1 °® cers whose authority is derived J™ **? 0 h 'Rhest military power. One of the ho went up stairs was dressed in citi zeuY clo'ltea, sad will very likely be recog uiz.d ntrealUr. Gae ot the party, John Wal ace, late of tbu ?d Ohio Heavy Artil lery has been arresied, and it Is believed that the other.- will be discovered. A guard was sent out to arrest them, but arrived a few moments too late, the bints having flown. Hereafter a guard wi.i protect the building ANOTHER MHTCITTr WITH NEC ROTS, We leant that a squad of negroes soldiers ■ belonging to the 17th colored regiment have 1 recently been committing depredations ou I the premises of Mr. Win. Wilds, near the Buena Vista Springs. A guard was sent <>ut Ito protect the property, and oil Saturday ! night the negroes entered a sorghum cane 1 field, w here the guard was stationed. Tney j Knocked him dowu and stamped him, when j a geutiemau came out of the house aud shot i one of the uegroes through the head killing 1 him instantly. A fight ensued id which the j negroes were defeated, and two of them ar ! rested. We were unable to learn the full | particulars. We sincerely hope, for the benefit of all j concerned, that the utgroe* In our city will ■ be provided with active employment, and I that all good citizen, will aid in procuring ! work tor them. The difficulties which have i occurred at different times are mainly caused | by idle negroes who lounge about the city, aud become insolent by association with a i class of vagrants who steal for a liviug i Honest industry will bring the negroes right, and prevent further trouble between them and the white people. Horse thieves are actively at work in this section On Saturday night a very fine bay i marc was stoleD from Mr. Nelson, at La i vergne. The thieves have been tracked to this city. A few days ago, we published the parti culars of the robbery ot a barouche and fine span of horses from Messrs. Bruner <£ Deming, which occurred on ’.he Nolensvdle pike, about thirteen miles from the city.— We learned last night that the lobbers, alter proceeding a short distance front the spot ! where they attacked the driver, cut the horses loose, and left the barouche standing in the road. It was brought to the city yes terday, and returned to the owners. The murder of Capt. Wilson one night la3t week is still enveloped in mystery. Ed. Cotter, who was arrested on suspicion, lias been released, and it is not likely that the ; author of the deed will ever bo brought to I justice, unless the old adage, “murder will out,” holds good. Capt. Wilson was 'a man who held a high position in the army, but foil into bad company, and became the vic tim ot cut throats and thieves. Outrage bt Soldiers. —We learn that a boy came into the city last night about 10 o'clock, and reported that a party ot negro soldiers were at his father's house, about two miles out on the Nolensville Pike, threaten ing to kill the family aud burn the house.— They were in search of a man named Honey suckle. The police operate in the case asit was out of their jurisdiction. We hope that the military authorities will put a stop to these repeated outrages by negro soldiers. The discipline should be more rigid among the negro troops. Arrest of a Murderer. —Achariah Boyd a negro, was arrested yesterday in the city charged with the murder of the negro on Brown's Creek a few days ago, not far from the Nolinsville Pike. It appears that they j went fait in the woods together to gel bark, ! and Boyd struck the deceased with his axe, on the neck, inflicting a fatal wound, and | left him (lend. The Recorder will inyesti j gate the case this morning. A Cowardly Murder —Thomas Walton, a negro man, was shot and killed on Sunday night, at about tight o’clock, while passing through the yard to the house at which he is stopping, ou Gay street, near the trestle work The ball took effect in his breast, killing him instantly. No clue has been obtained to the perpetrator of this dastardly act. An in quest was held, and elicited the above facts. Horse Thrives Still Operating. —We learn that six mules and two horses were st. len fiom Wm. Sltadeu at or near Colum bia on Thursday night. A brigade of sol •diers passed through the place that night, and it is believed that the thieves took ad vantage of this opportunity. We have re ports of horse-stealing from the country al most daily. Humor. —lt was reported in the city yes terday that Capt. Hatton, who lives about four miles from the city, shot and killed a burglar night before last. The thief had broke into the house, aud met death instead ot money. Capt. H. came to the city aud reported the affair to the Coroner yesterday. The Alabama Convention—State Election Ltfl to tlie People. Montgomery, Sept. 26. The Crnvention was occupied all day in debating the election ordnance. It was fin ally agreed that all State elections be left to the people on the first Monday in November next. The appointment of representatives re ceived some discussion, and will be further debated to-morrow. IN t.FiXKitAI. —A negro was found dead,, a few days since, on a road leading out from Nashville, his throat having been cut from ear to ear.— Nothing was learned as to the perpetrator of the atrocity. —Capt Morrow, the Provost Marshal at Macon, is running a sort of intelligence of fice fur furnishing employment to negroes found vagrant in the streets of that city He hires out about twenty negroes a day. In the ludian Council, on the 12th, the Creeks make a lengthy statement relative to their action in the war, saying the names ot their chiefs, affixed to treaties with the rebels, were used without their knowledge, and the same was true with regard to the Indians of the Plains. A rude correspondent, speaking of the prevalence of cAii/nous, the new mode ofc- oi/- fiere, of the fashionable golden color, says the greater part of them are purchased, be ing sold at a pound for so many carats. —The almost perpendicular face of the Currantnal, near Killarney, more than three thousand feet high, and the highest moun tain in Ireland, was scaled by three Eng lishmen on the 21st ultimo. This is said to lie the first ascent that has been made on the precipitons side of the mountain. The river is falling again at Augusta. —The body of a colored girl about eigh teen years of age, was found dead in an old I barn, on the premises of Dr. Davis, about | three, miles from Augusta. She evidently t died from disease and want. —Ttie Boston Post says, Charles Sumner would have the Erie-Canal filled up if he were told negro children were liable to be drowned in it. —The powder Magazine near Eufanla, Ala., was entered last week by unknown parties nnd a hundred or two pounds of powder stolen. —A correspondent,of the Atlanta Intelli gencer, urges that the State Convention in troduce into the organic law of the Slate a guarantee for the support of the Georgia Pnh ers'ity. —A contemporary gives the following maxims by our own Tapper : "Never put off till to-day what you didn’t w ish to do yesterday. If a herring and a half cost throe half pence. you had better have two for break fast, and bang the expense ’ BY TELEGRAPH. U Aimn <o\\k is ti o Tiie War Debt of the State Repudiated.

The Convention to-day, by a vote of six ty-one to nineteen, passed an ordinance declaring ali debt coulracted by the Sta'e in aid of the late war repudi tied. The Convention also passed an ordinance refusing to submit the New Constitution to the popular vote of the people. The body will adjourn on Saturday. " ■ 1 1 11 r TO TUB VOTERS OP CHATHAM COUNT V. As our names re-appeared in tue Swan - nail papers of yesterday, as candidates for the Convention, a word of explanation is con sidered due to you. On the 19th in-t., a num ber of our citizens who had heard that the Lnion Club was about to make a nomina tion of esc en'Miii;c.l Union candidates, desir ed to put before you meu who would better represent the sentiments and feelings of our community, and they called an impromptu meeting, which was held that afternoon at J. M. Otterard s offits. To show you that the act was not done secretly or in a corner, we give you the uames of nearly all the gen tlemen who were invited to he present. They are : F. Blair, B. I, Cole, W. H. Miller, C. Giant, T. M. Norwood, T. Holcombs, H. S. Bell, W. T. Thompson, W. Russell, ,T. M. Guerard, T. 3. Wayne, E. E. Hertz, J. L. Villalonga, N. C. Mills, R. W. Adams, J. Caruthers, C C. Casey, W. 11. Boardly, M. S. Cohen, Hugh Monahan, J. Cooper, R. D. Guerard, W. W. Paine, W. D. Harden, A. Goebel, \V. Swall, I). A. O Byrne. Os the number invited, twenty were pre sent at the meetiug, to wit: Messrs. Blair, Cole, Miller, Grant. Nor wood, Holeombe,Thompson, Russell, Wayne, J. M. Guerard, Adams, Caruthers, Boardly. Cohen, R. D. Guerard, Paine, Harden, Goebel, Swall, Bell. Mr T. Holcombe took the chair, when Mr. T. S. Wayne moved that any person present, should propose any number of names, and that a ballot be lmd, and the three having the highest number of votes be declared the nominees. Mr. Waring Russell moved ns n substitute, that a committee should wait ou Messrs. E. 0. Anderson, Solomon Cohen and T. E. Lloyd, (whom some anonymous per son had sometime before proposed as candi dates), and inquire whether they desired to run. This motion received not over two votes, and was lost, ou the gtound that the meeting were no more hound to wait on those genllem-m than on any other three in the county. Mr. Russell, Mr. Swall and Mr. Goebel, then asked leave to withdraw front the meeting—to which no one raised any ob jection. Mr. Wayne’s motion was then car fled, and the following named gentlemen were nominated for ballot, to wit Richard D Arnold, T. Holcombe, R. Lachlison, G. S. Owens, T. E. Lloyd, E. C. Anderson, Solomon Cohen, John thriven, R. T. Gibson, and* ourselves. Discussion then arose on the eligibility of certain nominees. The meeting were of the opinion that Messrs. Cohen and Lloyd, both being within the property exception in the Amnesty Proclamation, nnd Mr. Cohen com ing also within the first exception a3 a civil officer (Post Masier,) under the Confederate Government, were ineligible to the Conven tion. Mr. Anderson was, with the other gentlemen named, balloted for, and he and ourselves received the highest number of votes, and were then unnnimoudy declared the nominees of the meeting. On the following day, another meeting was held at the office of Messrs. Hartridge & Chisholm, at which Messrs. E. C. Ander son, Solomon Cohen nud T. E. Lloyd were nominated. Thus the nominations stood and stand The public seemed to deprecate the fact that more than three candidates (apart from the Union Club nomination,) should be run. We regretted the fact beyond expression, nnd to remedy the evil, Mr. Norwood determined to get the five candidates together, and endeav or to effect a compromise, so that there might be peace and union and strength among the friends of both tickets. He accordingly in vited the other four to a conference on yes terday, when he proposed to take his name from the first ticket nominated, if any one of the gentlemen on the second ticket would do likewise. That would leave three candi dates. This proposition was declined by Mr. Lloyd and Mr. Cohen—Mr. Anderson be ing of both tickets! was not expected to re tire. Mr. Norwood asked if they had any proposition to make by which the disired union could be effected. They said they had none. Mr. Gnerard then stated that he would accede to any arrangement wb ich would be mutual and produce the desired result. None was proposed and the meet ing adjourned. It is due to those gentleman that we men tion the fact, that they expressed the belief that the present difficulty, arising from two nominations, might liave been avoided if they had been invited to the first, meeting. We have thus laid the explanation of our candidacy before you, that you may judge whether, under the circumstances, we were, or are now, bound to give way entirely to the candidates nominated at the second meet ing. The gentlemen who nominated us, tell us we have done all ttiat could be done with due respect to them nnd ourselves,nnd that we - must not withdraw our names. We liave stated from the first, and we now repeat the statement, that we did not, and do not now desire to he candidates or delegates to the Convention. We hope and desire that the people of the couuty will now meet and make a nomination of any t hree citizens they may choose. And we hold our positions as candidates simply because we see no honora ble way try which to retire. We look with perfect indifference to the result, so far as we are concerned. Defeat will be no cause for regret—success will bring no jot’. We wish it understood that while we will make any mutual concessions—we see no shadow of reason why we should surrender everything to the second nominees. In whatever man ner you see fit to settle the question, wc shall be perfectly content. T. M. Norwood. John M.
