country from destruction. You aud I are

The Syracuse (N. Y.) Courier & Jour-
nal of the 27th nit. truly-rpmarfcs :
“It is the climax ol impudence to assert
(it ha- Iren so asserted by Bingham) that
the reconstruction infamy was intended to
cud the -feuds” between the North and
South. 1* has created more sectional ha
tred in the South' than the prosecution of
die war did. It is a partizan poliey seek
rug perpetuation of power through re-
vengeful measures on a prostrate and hign
spirited people. It is not possible to con
reive of worse and moaner motives than
diiue- through every provision of the mil
itary bills, and common sense and deceu-
tv are insulted by Bingham's rhapsody.”
FROM NEW l r ORK.
The correspondent of the Chronicle and
Sentinel under date of the 27th ult. says:
The estimates of the number of visitors
to New York during the ensuing week in
creases daily, and room rent goes np with
'hem. It is asserted that the inducement
; *f cheap transportation’ will bring from
your own State, at least five thousand
Persons. New York merchants and bank-
(,| s arc discussing the effect of iovr fares
upon their interests, and declare that the
tuture policy ol Now York must be more
forked in this particular than in the past,
'hat cheap transportation must he so cheap-
f D6ii to New Yoik as to draw everything
a, ‘d evciy'nody to and through the metrop
olis. Money is now as easily commanded
as a loan for any sound enterprise at the
hiHii'o which promises such results.
The Macon and Brunswick Railroad
( "tupany has, under this influence, com
peted pending negotiations for the sum
Necessary to finish their undertaking, plan
tlie whole of their bonds endorsed by
’he .Statu at a figure above ninety per cent.
Mrangc-ments have been perfected which
"'ll enable this company to complete their
v,,,r k iri eighteen mouths.
Some efforts are being made to negoti-
a loan for the Macon .and Augusta
ibihd, but it does not appear probable that
! lle y will be successful. The prevalent
i( *ea is, that this Road is encumbered with
" el) t and must eventually pass into the
‘*Uds of the Georgia and South Carolina
rloadfs, who Lave endorsed its bonds. Your
Governor elect’s name as a director and
fcI President, lends no credit to this Com-
l‘ ati y, and the opinion is pretty freely ex-
pressed, that he sold the venerable Presi-
vtit of the Georgia Road very hand**
fc'jinefy when be obtained his over-
P°*eiuig influence to secure his elect-ton

Mceling of the Drmoeralie Convention.

enthusiasm.
The Georgia Delegation entered, mov
ed in procession from their headquarters to
Tammany Hall, Geueral Gordon, Chair
man, leading the procession, the band
playing Dixie as the Delegation entered
the Hall.
The Convention was called to order by
August Belmont.
Henry L. Palmer, of Wisconsin, was
chosen temporary Chairman.
Mr. Palmer's speech was received with
the greatest enthusiasm.
Everything augurs harmony and suc-
eess.
The Illinois and IudiaDa Delegations
announced that they were instructed to
vote for Pendleton as a unit, which was
received with applause.
The contest now seems to be between
Pendleton aud Heudricks with the chauc-
es in favor of Pendleton.
The New York Delegation say that they
will support the candidate having the ma
jority on the sixth ballot.
Andrew Johnson will teceive a large
vole from the South. The Southern vote
will probably l>e divided between Andrew
Johnson and Francis P. Blair.
Louisiana supports Hancock.
The Soutberu vote will be given for the
candidate showing the greatest strength by
the greatest majority.
The Convention adjourned to 10 o’clock
Mo u day.
Judge CbaSs abides by the decision ot
the Convention. His friends say he will
show strong" ou the Bixth ballot. Bets
three to one that the Democratic nominee
will be elected.
Over two liuudred thousand strangers
are in the city. ,
Pendleton’s oseprt from Cincinnati is
two thousand.
Chase Delegation from Philadelphia is
oue thousand.
Thomas H. Seymour, of Connecticut,
has declared for Pendleton.
New York, July 4, p. m.~The crowd
in the vicinity of Tammany Hall render
the streets almost impassible. Over fifty
thousaud applications have been made for
aamissiou to the Convention. Pendleton’s
forces preserve their enthusiasm aud con
fidence. Johnson men are few in number,
but very determined. Hancock’s support
ers seem in bad temper. Rumors of a
Chase letter bearing strongly uo .State
rights, excite attention. Southern dele
gates applaud Jobuson lor bis amnesty
proclamation enthusiastically. Rules of
the Democratic Convention of ’G4 were
adopted. Territories were excluded from
a vote in the Convention. Committees on
credentials, resolutions and permanent or
ganization were appointed, when, after
reading the Declaration of Independence,
the Conveutiou adjourned until Monday.
A silver wedding has been celebrated in
Indiana, much to the astonishment of the

A WORD TO OUR READERS.
Will not those of our readers who have
received notices from us of their dues, be
so kind as to remit! We have been at the
expense of postage stamps to notify them,
and we do not desire to continue such an
expense ; for with us, it amounts to -near
S100.
We Jo hove our friends will send tlieir
dues; tho amouul small to them is to ub
large in tho aggregate. It is unkind to
say the least of it, to refuse or be indiffer
ent to onr wants. We have credited trust
ing to the honor ot our readers. Many,
have been prompt, very prompt; to them
we return our thanks, and ask that those
who know they are behind, will at once
come to our aid.
Our very clever friend, T. W-
Conn, who, by the way keeps one of the
best establishments in the city in his line ;
presented us, the Junior, with a bottle of
‘•Curacoa Tonic Bitters.” We have had
it on hand for several weeks, and can tru
ly say it is a good thing, good for chills
aud fever and dyspepsia. The only diffi
culty we find about it, is : that it is better
and belter upon an introduction. Wo
have an idea,that about a teaspoouful of
the “Curacoa,” put into a drink of good
•‘sperets,” say rye in a liquid state, would
add wonderfully tu its medicinal qualities.
If any of our mercantile friends, tbmk
that they have * real i° 0<i ai ' li c JtJ on faan(3 ’
something that they are not ashamed for
an editor to try. in case of sickness,
and will Teave us a bottle, we prom
ise to try .it should we have a bil
lions Attack this summer. We merely
throw out the bint. Go to Conu’s and
get a bot tle of the “Curacoa” for it is re
ally medicinal in its qualifies*
