We had a pleasant viidt yesterday from
Mr. A. St. Clair-Abrams, Chairman of the
Democratic Executive Committee of the
Second Florida Congressional district. lie
represents the political situation in his State
as very encouraging for the Democracy,
and predicts the success of the Demo
cratic State ticket by a large ma
jority. He thinks that it will require
nard work to carry the Second Congressional
District, as the Radicals are straining
every nerve, and are spending money lav
ishly to secure Blsbee’s election. Despite It
all, however, he feels quite sure of General
Finley’s success, lie also reports that the
Slate suffered greatly—more even than has
been reported—from the recent cyclone.
The orange crop has been cut off fully one-
half In some localities, and it will be at.
least a year before the people will fully re
cuperate from the effects of the storm.

It will be 6e«*n by the attractive announce
ment elsewhere that Mr. J. A. Bates, the

recreation, fat aud hearty, and with forty-
horse power for the winter business. Whilst
absent, however, he also had an eye to busi
ness, and has secured a large and extensive
stock of musical supplies of every kind,
including pianos and organs, which are pro
nounced to be liner instruments than ever
before shown in Savannah. Uaving.secur-
ed musical merchandise “awful cheap.”
which was personally selected by Mr. Bates,
the liim announce prices largely reduced aud
invite the public to “call and see the young
man. He is as good natured as a basket of
chips, and w ill sell you a piano or organ If
you give him half a chance.”
Death ol Janies Kennedy.
This venerable and well known citizen

health. He leaves six daughters and two
sons. His funeral will take place at four
o’clock this afternoon from his late resi
dence.
Death of .’tlr. Edward r. Kemplon.
Mr. Edward S. Kempton, a well known

first year. He was for a long time in busi
ness in this city in the firm of LaRoche,

and several other firms. lie gave up busi
ness several years ago, and was engaged at
the time of his fatal attack with Mr. D. G.

Incorrect Cotton ISeports.
Considerable comment was made last sea
son, and is commencing to be made again,
about Incorrect reports of the receipts of cot
ton. This is very noticeable in the reports
of receipts made by one of the up river
steamers on Monday last. Her report to
the Cotton Exchange was 417 bales, but her
published report was 575 bales, which is
correct.
We cannot see what good can result from
these widely different statements, which
occasion trouble in keeping a correct re
port of the receipts of cotton at this port.

the highest number of votes, but It remained
for the convention to say whether the six
dt-legates from Effingham be admitted, or
only those who had received the highest
votes.
Mr. Rahn objected to this. He stated
that the Effingham delegation were agreed
among themselves as to who would repre
sent them, and they were the regular dele
gates. If the convention decided that the
six delegates could be admitted, they
would have six votes.
Mr. Ravenel, of Chatham, thought the
contention had no right to object to admit
ting the six delegates, but that this should
not be construed as according six votes to
Effingham. The vote of Effingham had
always been two votes, and this convention
could not take any action in the premises.
After some desultory remarks, the Effing
ham delegates retired, and after a few
minutes returned, and stated they- had
agreed that Dr. Burroughs and Dr. McCon
nell should cast the two votes-of Effingham.
NOMINATIONS.
The Chair then announced nominations
in order.
Dr. Burroughs, in a few eulogistic re
marks, placed in nomination lion. Rufus E.
Lester, of Chatham. He said the district
could not do better than to return him, who
had reflected so much credit upon his con
stituency. He would be glad to see their dis
tinguished fellow cltizeu giveu the highest
honors in the gift of this people. He had
proved himself worthy in the legislative
balls and on the tented field, where he ex-
emplifi d the Latin motto, “Du3.ce ti deix/rum
est propatria »/iori.” In electing Mr. Lester
the’district would be furthering their own
interests, and he presented his name as cal
culated to secure harmonious action.
Dr. McConnell moved that the two-thirds
rule be adopted to govern the nomination,
which was carried.
Mr. Ravenel stated that while the
Gh&tham delegation felt honored lu having
the name of their popular townsman
brought forward, yet he did not consider
that the remarks of Dr. Burroughs, that he
presented It for the sake of harmony, were
applicable, as there had been no bai-
lotings and nothing had occurred to show
there would be a lack of harmony lu this
convention. From what was known of Mr.
Lester’s wishes the Chatham delegation
were satisfied that he did not desire the
nomination, though he would appreciate tbe
compliment and might accept it under cer
tain contingencies, though preferring that
some other be nominated. For that reason
they had not presented his name.
Dr. Burroughs explained that he did not
mean to intimate that this convention would
be inharmonious; his opinion was that we
should look for the best man, one who
could harmonize all tbe interest in the dis
trict.
Mr. P. W. Williams, of Bryan, offered
the following resolution as a substitute for
Dr. Burroughs’ nomination, which was
seconded and carried:
Resolved, That this convention cordially
indorse the resolutions adopted at tbe mass
meeting of tbe Democracy of Chatham
county, on the 9th September Inst., In re
gard to the Hon. Rufus E. Lester, and that
we would unanimously nominate him for
Senator from this district, but for the un
derstanding that he does not desire it.
Dr. McCounell, of Effingham, nominated
Major Henry E. Smith, of Bryan, whom he
said was too well known to the delegates to
need any eulogy from him.
Mr. T. P. Ravenel, of Chatham, nominat
ed II. F. Brewer, Esq., of Effingham.
Mr. A F. Iiahn, of Effingham, nominated
P. W. Meldritn, Esq , of Cnatham.
Dr. Burroughs nominated S. F. Keller,
E-q , of Effingham, but subsequently with
drew his name, that gentleman being pres
ent, and requesting that his name be not
placed in nomination.
BALLOTING.
There being no other nominations, the
balloting was commerced.
First ballot—Smith 3, Lester 1, Mcldrim 6.
Second ballot—Smith 4 } Brewer 2, Lester
I, Meldrim 2.
Third ballot—Smith 4, Burroughs 3,
Lester 2, Mcldrim 2.
Fourth ballot—Smith 4. Keller 2, Lester
1, Meldrim 1, Burroughs 2.
Fifth ballot—Smith 2, Lester 1, Meldrim 7.
Bryan charged her two votes from Smith
to Meldrlin, giving him nine, two more than
the requisite two thirds.
Mr. R ivenel said iu explanation of the ac
tion of the Chatham delegation that they
were guided by the knowledge that Mr. Les
ter would only take the Domination if it was
actually necessary, but It would be at a
great personal sacrifice. There were person
al reasons why he did not desire it, and tbe
Chatham delegation did not think they had
the right to force him against his inclina
tion. Mr. Meldrim had been nominated by
the delegate from Effingham, and believing
that be would satisfactorily represent the in
terests of the district, they supported him.
TUE NOMINATION UNANIMOUS.
Mr. Williams moved that the noruination
of Mr. Meldrim be made unanimous, which
was carried with enthusiasm.
On motion, the Chair was requested to
appoint a committee of three to notify Mr.
Meldrim of his nomination.
The Chair appointed Messrs. Jas. H.
Blitch, of Bryan; T. P. Riven el of Chat
ham, aud Dr. C. J. Burroughs of Effingham,
as the committee.
PUT ON NOTICE.
Mr. Rahn stated that he desired to give
notice that at the next Senatorial Conven
tion Effingham would contend for the
representation of six delegates and he de
sired to put the Chatham delegation on
notice of this determination.
On motion, of I)r. McConnell, Major
Henry E. Smith, of Bryan, was requested to
address the meeting on the subject of the
matter introduced by Mr. Iiahn—the noti
fication that at the next convention Ef
fingham aud Bryan counties would claim
six delegates each.
COUNTRY VS. CITY.
After some little desultory discussion,
Major Smith took the floor. He said he was
glad to have the opportunity of making a
statement, but would have preferred to ad
dress tbe convention before the nomination
was made. Nevertheless, be hoped that the
delegates would hereafter profit by what he
had lo cay. This district, said the speaker,
the First Senatorial district of Georgia, was
formed In i860. The first convention that
nominated a Senator from this district as
sembled in this very warehouse, and he had
the honor of being a delegate. At the in
stance of his friend, the Hon. Thomas M.
Norwood, who admonished him to have
adopted at that, convention a rule providing
for rotation in the counties of this district,
he had drawn up a resolution, and presented
it, because he believed that the counties
should be recognized, lie was willing to
stand by that aavice of his friend, Col. Nor
wood, who knew Chatham county, and that
with tbe power they bad they would carry
their point with mere brute force. And
tbe results bad shown it since I860. In
1861, the gallant Col. George A. Gordon
was nominated; in 1863, hie friend,
who now sleeps’ the ale~p of the dead,
Thos. E. Lloyd, was nominated; In 1865,
Col. George S. Owens : in 1S68, Aaron Alpe-
orla Bradley triumphed by means of the
Radicals, but was ousted by the Hon. Rufus
E. Lester, who had filled the position for
the past twelve years. Twenty years had
elapsed since^be formation of this district,
and of ail the Senatorial districts in Geor
gia, this district, to the shame of Chatham
county be it said, is the only one that has
not had the manners to alternate with the
country. Because these delegates from
Chatham lived In a city where they had a
big river, could see big ships, walk on paved
sidewalk* and look through glass windows,
they think there Is po t^aa ia tha country
with sufficient brains to represent them.
They want everything—the Governor, mem
ber of Congress, United 8tates Senator—
and now, by power of numbers and brute
force, wring the nomination from the
country districts for the Senator. You can’t
put your finger on a single district in the
State that does not alternate. Now the time
has come to pretest against this, and he
would ask if the country would not stand
up to its rights, and resist the demands
of these city gentlemen. He had asked
the privilege of being beard previous
to the nomination, but the request
was ignored, and the Chatham dele
gation had come here determined to
carry their point. He had seen Colonel
Lester within the past few days, and this
distinguished fellow citizen had said posi
tively that be did not waut tbe nomination,
and that he did not wish to b*? forced to
accept it. And yet tbis Chatham dclega
lion ccme here with an attempt to ply us with
I^ester, and when they find tnat won’t do
ply us with Meldrim, and by numbers throt
tle us and secure the nomination.
After this assertion, which created a
sensation of wonderment, the speaker
proceeded to discuss the laudatory
resolutions at the ievent mass meeting
in Savannah referring to Colonel Letter,
and said they were Introduced by a
young man not of age. He
made a point of this and elaborated it a'
some length, and intimated that it was a
part of a design to cheat the country people
with the name of Les’er. Addressing the
Chatham delegation, he continued: You
come here with no other intention but to
carry the nomination, knowing that by per
sistence and tbe help of some wtak-kn»*ed
countryman yen will succeed,'icd you have.
He was not afraid of any of the city folks:
could look any of them in the face, as he was
an honed?man. He bad no powers of legal
lore, but could, as a member of the Georgia
Legislature, cast as sensible a vote as the
gentleman whom you claim to be a distin
guished lawyer. He made these remarks in
justice to the country, and in the hope that
it might have some effect and induce the
Chatham delegation to do what tbey had
not the manners to do before. He had no
antipathy to the legal fraternity: he esteem
ed them, and many are his friends, but he
would ask them to try some one from the
country, and see if they would not do as
well. That the counties are entitled to this
nomination there is not a question of doubt
The territorial boundaries and not the popu
lation should make the representa
tion. But, taid the speaker, tbe die
is cast, gentlemen of Chatham coun
ty. Circumstance after circumstance
goes to show that the country districts have
pot be**n treated properly, and you, dele
gates from Chatham county, are rej-ponsi
ble for tbis treatment. He d:d not
know whether he would ever be a candidate
again before the convention, but whether
he was or not, he thought that some man
from the country should have the nomina
tion. If they didn't like him, why, let
them take some one else.
Major 8mith spoke with great earnest-
nets, and wa6 listened to without Interrup
tion. The above is a fair synopsis of his
remarks.
After he took his seat, Mr. Charles Col
lin*, Chairman of the Chatham delegation,
arose and said that, as Chairman
of his delegation, he felt called upon
to dissent from some of the statements just
made. Mdjor Smith bad certainly made
some strange remarks, and be was at a loss
to understand upon what he based them.
He could most emphatically deny that t here
was any Intention or desire on the part of
the Chatham delegation to “throttle the
country delegates.” He nad but just re
turned the night before from a trip up the
country; bad had no conference with his
colleagues, and when they arrived on the
ground the delegation bad come to no un
derstanding as to exactly what couree they
would pursue, their only object being to se
cure the nomination of the best and most
available man, regardless of what locality
he came from.
Mr. Ravenel was of the opinion that the
delegates to a convention had certain rights,
and even if they chose to bring out a nominee
and support him they had the unquestioned
right to do so. On the contrary, the Chat
ham delegation had put out no man of their
own, Colonel Lester having expressed a de
sire not to be nominated, but had nominated
a gentleman from Effingham, and had di
vided their votes among the gentlemen
named from the other counties. Mr. Mel
drim being nominated by a delegate
from Effingham, the Chatham delegation
had .supported him, as they had reasou to
believe he would be acceptable to the en
tire district. He saw no occasion for the
har.^h language employed by Major Smith
to the Chatham delegation. They had cer
tainly not sought to force any one on the
convention, but perceiviug that Mr. Mel
drim was favored by the country delega
tions, they had, as natural, given him their
votes. He deprecated any attempt to array
the country against the city, and saw no
reason for this antagonism: so far as at
tempting to palm Mr. Lester off, the facta
showed the reverse. Mr. Lester had
been nominated by an Eflinghara delegate,
and for reasons already given the Chatham
delegation had sustained the resolution
offered by Mr. Bryan as a substitute. Tbe
country had always claimed Mr. Lester as
their man, and he had always been their
choice. So there was no point ia the asser
tion that they were trying to p .lm him oil.
They had come here with the purpose of
securing a strong man for the district, who
would unit: both city aud country, and in
the nomina'ion made, it would seem that
the result had been accomplished.
Major Smith again took the floor, and
said that Col. Le6ter had told
him emphatically and positively that he
did not want the nomination, and,
further, that he thought the next man
should come from the couutry. He had
gone so far as to ask Colonel Lester about
his (the speaker’s) candidacy. Colonel Les
ter replied iu the plain language of an bon
est man that he did not know the com
plexion of the Chatham delegation, and
therefore could not say what they might do.
The speaker said he belonged to no rings
or cliques, aud he was incensed at this
throttling of the honest yeomanry of the
country that feeds your city, as it were. But
you have carried your point, and it is plain
that uo rights of tbe couutry at the hands of
Chatham county will ever be accorded.
Mr. P. VV. Williams, of Bryan county,
regretted, after the convention had so har
moniously effected a Domination that he
felt would give general satisfaction, that
there should be any such discussion. He
cordially ludorsed the position of the
Chatham delegation, as a Brj an delegate.
While rotation might under some circum
stances be well enough, It was proper to
consider who was the best man. He felt
confident that every man nearly In Bryan
and in Effiugham would be satisfied with
the nomination. So far as his own
county was concerned he knew that
Mr. Meldrim w'ould be boat-lily support
ed and might be regarded nearly as strong
as Colonel Lester himself. He did not be
lieve in sectionalism, or arrayiDg the town
and country against one another. Mr. Mel
drim was Identified in a measure with the
country’?-interest and would faithfully re
present them. It was true the Bryan dele
gation had giveu Major Smith their votes on
several ballots. He was their neighbor aud
they esteemed and liked him, but he could
vouch for It that the nomination they had
made would give entire satisfaction to bis
county, and he regretted that any harsh
words had been indulged Id, as he di<^ not
think the occasion warranted it.
Dr. Burroughs, of Effingham, said he felt
It incumbent to indorse in the fullest all
that had been said by his brother delegate
from Bryan, Mr. Williams. lie considered
that the Chatham delegation were fully
exonerated from the charges made. He
himself had had the honor of being nomi
nated, and being voted for by that delega-
gation, which he highly appreciated,
although not a candidate for the position.
Mr. RahD, one of his colleagues, had pre
sented the name of Mr. Meldrim, and
the Chatham delegation, could not be
blamed for supporting him. lie felt confi
dent that Effingham county would unani
mously indorse Mr. Meldrim. J Applause.]
Dr. McConnell said that as he w*as
probably the weak kneed countryman
(laughter) referred to, be would merely say
that he fully indorsed what had been said
by his colleague concerning the nomination.
&IOHE DELEGATES WANTED.
Mr. Rahn again brought to the attention
of the convention the fact that Effingham
and, he hoped, Bryan county would insist
upon a representation of six delegates in
ihe next convention, and he desired the
Chatham delegation to be prepared to meet
the issue. They were perfectly satisfied
with today’s result, but would claim, rix
vote6 Iu the next convention,and then make a
square fight for the nomination. [Laugh
ter and applause.]
Dr. Burroughs said, if not out of order,
he would like to offer a little eulogy on
Colonel Lester: “First in war, first in peace,
first iu the hearts of fcls countrymen.”
[Applause.]
No other business was presented, and, on
motion, the convention adjourned alne die.
