Thia valuable institution has met And adjourned, after a suasion of two days, iu this citj» Although members of the Associ ation, ere had too much self reapoct to attend a conclave in oither of the newspaper offioes of thia city, uot only on political grounds, but for the fuct that J. L. Stockton A Cos., proprietors of the CoiutUuiU'Halisi, aud Henry Moore, proprietor of the Chronicle <6 Sentinel, did, ou the 16th of January, 1887, levy “black mail" ou us, to the amount of five hundred dollars each,for the privilege for receiving telegraph dispatches, aud for which same privilege they had never been asked to pay scant to any one. Many other newspapers havo been started since then in various Southern cities, but the proprietors of the above named daily papers are tho only par ties ihnt ever tried to crush out a rival by levying "black mail" upon him. Wc would have been pleased to attend the meetings of the Associates at any other meeting place, where we would have no grounds to object to locality. The deliberations of this body, in some respects, were highly proper and commendable, but when the cloven foot ol so-called Democracy was so palpably evident iu many other respects, we cannot endorse tbe whole action had. In the election of Directors tor the present year, we find the name of A. It. Wright of the. Chronicle & Sentinel mentioned as one of them, when the Constitution and By-laws distinctly declare that a Proprietary interest is necessary for membership, how much more then is it requisite that a Director should be a proprietor of, or hold an interest in some Daily newspaper? If the above named Director owns any interest in any paper it must be of late date, for from his own testimony on the witness stand last year, ho held none then, having testified that he was merely an employee iu the office of the Chronicle <('■ Sentinel. Furthermore, we cannot conceive of any reasonable ex cuse for a violation of the Constitution iu this particular Article, or in fact iu any other, while we presume there are some other members of the Association who do hold a proprietary interest in a Daily newspaper, and are eligible to the position of Directors. Besides this unconstitutional act, we find that the opportunity could not be suffered to pass unimproved by Old Aunt Hannah Steele of the Daily InteUitjcneer, without giving a pledged support to the “while man’s party.” (We remark cnpassant that some body ought to have posted Old Aunty, and informed her that in this section, the “so called” are trying to iniscegenatu with the negroes, and establish a brotherly connection for the sake of their votes, and have changed from calling colored men “d—d niggers,” to “our colored friends, oh how sweet!”) Wc presume to think that tbe meeting of this association was for a purely business purpose—that its members were wholly actuated by a desire to interchange thoughts and suggest improvements, and thereby elevate the daily press of the South, as well as to pecuniarily advance the interest of nil concerned in its conduct 1 We find that such was not the case, and that those who arc reported to havo been present at its deliberations, forgetful of these things, launched out into uncalled for and reprehensible sentiments calculated to lower the standard of dignity’—as the press is looked upon as the fourth estate in tho country—as demanded of all members of the press gang. We care naught for the invidious distinction made in regard to ourselves, for nothing else could have been expected from the resolution makers who wind up the proceedings. The Association adjourned night before last to meet on tho second Wednesday in February, 1869, in the city of Mobile. ' [Advertisement.] It. K.

Pain, no matter from what cause, is almost in stantly cured by the Ready Relief. In cases of Rheumatism, Neuralgia, Sore Throat, Diptheria, Colds, Head-ache, Tooth ache, Cramps. Spasms, Bilious Colic, in (act all Pains, Aches, and Infirmities, either in the Stomach, Bowels, Bladder, Kidneys, or the Joints, Muscles, Legs, Arms, etc., will, in a Jew minutes, yield to the soothing influence of the Ready Relief- Every family should keep these life-saving remedies in the house—can he used on all occasions, where pain or sickness suddenly seizes you, or accidents occur—are safe and rapid in their effects—can he taken or used by infants as well as adults—and all who use them, no matter how sick, or great may be their sufferings—a few hours in the worst cases, and a lew minutes in ordinary complaints, will afford case anil comfort.

It exposed to it, put unit teaspoonful of Relief io a tumbler of water. Drink this before going out in tbe morning, and seve ral times during tbe day. Take one of Radway’s Pills one hour before dinner, and one ou going to bed. If seized with Fever, take four to six of the Pills every six hours; until copious dis charges from the bowels take place; also, drink the Relief diluted with water, and bathe the entire surface of the body with Relief. Soon a powerful perspiration will take place, and you will feel a pleas, ant heat throughout the system. Keep on taking Relief immediately, every four hours, also tho Pills. A euro will lie sure to follow. The Relief is strengthen ing, stimulating, soothing, and quieting ; it is sure to break up the Fever and to neu tralize the poison. Let this treatment be followed, and thousands will he saved. The same treatment in Fever and Ague, Yellow Fever* Ship Fever, Bilious Fuver, will effect a cure in twenty four hours. When the patient (eels tiie Relief irritating or beating the skin, a cure is positive. In all cases where pain is felt, the Relief should be used. Relief, 50 cents; Pills, 25 ecuts.

Stevens reported bill admitting Arkansas—he considered tbe Con stitution unexceptionable, and did not desire to debate upon the bill. Bcveral members complained that they had never seen the Constitution. Baker, though favoring the provision, doubted the Constitutional power in force, and the stipulation regarding suffrage. Business of this kind should not be done hurriedly, nor should the bill pass until tho Constitution is examined. Stevens snid there was not a clause in the Constitution that was objectionable to a man who favored freedom. Stevens demanded previous question, which was seconded and main question ordered. Stevens yielded the floor to Woodward for 15 minutes, who, having never seen Con stitution, declined speaking. Beck stated that if time was allowed him he could demonstrate that the Constitution never received a majority vote of tbe people of Arkansas, A few days would show this, therefore they rushed this bill through ; that tho franchise and educational clause was particularly obnoxious. Bill finally passed by 110 to 32. Baker, Sloan, Spaulding and Williams of Pennsylvania, voting nay. Shanks intro duced a resolution declaring officers recently elected in South Carolina to be provisional, and that the Government of that State be referred to the reconstruction Committee. Paine reported a bill admitting South Carolina. It was ordered to be printed. Adjourned. Washington Items. Washinui’on, May B.—Judge Chase’s connection with adjournment was misstated last night Adjournment had been fixed to 11 o'clock Monday, Chase said it would place him in an embarrassing position to frame the questions, nnd therefore he should like to have the advice of the Senate on the subject, and would be obliged to them if they would adjourn until 10 o'clock on Monday, instead of 11 o’clock. Adopted. There was a full Cabinet meeting. The Radicals have nominated Sayles J. Bowers, City Postmaster, for Mayor. The Republican Congressional Committee have advices from Florida that the Consti tution has been adopted and a Radical Legislature elected in that State. South Carolina’s Constitution. Washington, May B.—The South Caro lina Committee will protest against the Con stitution before the Reconstruction Com mittee. Stevens received them with a chilling remark—that what tho protest claimed as grievances they regarded virtues. Col. Thomas addressed the Committee, making points that tho white people would not patiently submit to negro supremacy, and that while they would be compelled to submit to the yoke, there could be no real peace until it was removed. The question of taxation seemed to im press the Committee socially. Stevens suggested- the plan of allowing the property holders to fix taxation. Many Southerners were present in the Committee room, and the Committee are hopeful of some modification of the most objectionable features of the Constitution. The Committee are favorably received, and their views fully endorsed by Representation men here of the Northern Democracy. American Medical Association. Washington, May B.—The American Medical Association meets next year at New Orleans. Dr. Wm. O. Baldwin, of Montgomery, Ala., has been elected Presi dent. Receiving him on behalf of the Association, Dr. Gross said : “I wolcome you as tho representative of our long lost Southern brethren.
