That in th" pirit mid chiv alry u( true euhliei , »vhn have toiled and BUtl’ered, foiigdil and bled, to uphold the emblematical colors of our cause and country, \>e are disposed to lorgive and forest the past, with im errors, -rie\auees and calamities : to outerlain malice toward none, and extend charity to all who '•'• 'll now, ami for the future, come forward with the open right hand ot patriotic tellowsiiip, resolved to make the nation once again happy ; and we cordially oiler the olive branch, because we. fool in our soldier hearts secure of the approbation ol the no less gallant than generous American people.’ the platform ol Bolts, which was sub mitted to night to the caucus ol the ; Conservative wing, was approved. It favors the restoration of the great body ofthe people to their political right., but urges the disiranchisoment of the more artful leader. . It was stated 'bat the 1 platform lias already been submitted to, and approved by the other wing oi'tlie party .being chiefly delegates who luvd at- > . aided the April Convention. A motion was m»do inside to adjourn to the Capitol Square, ami llu: crowd outside mistaking it i*> be carried, hurried off to that point. Mr. J. W. HuimieuU made a short address to those tushie in favor of adjourning to the square. lie counselled harmony in the deliberations of' the body, for they were this day looked to hr the whole country, and by hundreds of thousands oi blacks whose lathers had looked prayerfully forward to such a day as this. The rebels of Richmond mid their press were looking joyfully forward to « disturbance in tlie Conven tion. and ho wanted them disappointed, this was a Mass Convention, and he wanted all Republicans represented in it. Those who could not indorse the Republican platform adopted by the Convention of April might go home, as they were not wanted here. All men who ssinr here to break Kepub lieau Party in Virginia were scoundrels and hypocrites, and would meet t ho odium they merited. Major Tucker, of Alexandria, moved the appointment ol fifty able bodied ineu to clear the ground and keep order for the Convention at the , Capitol Square, which motion being carried, the Convention adjourned. Those who first arrived at the Square fouud a conservative delegate address* lug about one hundred black-. He prole.-ted against three or four meu ruling the Convention, or the over awing ofthe interior delegates by -uch an immense crowd Irom Richmond. j The delegation would endorse the i April platform if (bev could only hear. [A voice, “Vou would have heard if j you had been here in April.] I An announcement wa then made that the Convention wa- assembling on ; the other id- of the Capitol, and me | of the audience left. Another Conservative ro.- and com menced proto-line against prescribing any man now for hi- pa-t political t opinion. The Republican party wa.-; not, Im said, strong enough in the State to throw away “itch aid; neither wa- it strong enough in the North. Look at lien. Butler, who did more than any other mau at the Charie-foa Conven tion to bring on this war. A voice lo re cut the speaker short, by announcing that the crowd must walk ttiound to the other side, and it left en masse. jeering the speaker as it did. On the other side wa- pre.s-nt the 1 large • ;. atemblagu ever n in Rich mond, with a considerable sprinkling of white—. A mid :. good and ud --I • tmfu.sioti. euused by tin immense crowd, Mr. John llav.x liur.-t. of Alexandria, v.as chosen tempo rary Chairman, and Charles \\ hitllcs-y, of Alexandria, temporary Secretary. A recess of two hours was had to give time to form a committee, to be composed of one from each delegation. The different, delegations met under tin tree.; in the square: in the mean time the other wing had printed and distributed the following handbill: i “Republican State Convention.—The delegates to the State Convention of unconditional Union men. called to meet in the African church, in this city, i at Id o’clock m., today, will meet in I die hull of the House of Bolegatcs this I evening at H o’clock, to perfect tho organization ol a Republican party of , Virginia.

Bi< ilmoxii, August 1.- This morning, ] at an early hour, the neighborhood ol j • the African Church was filled by about! three thousand blacks, awaiting the j opening of the doors, and the streets ! • were alive with others coming to the ! place appointed for the meeting of the I Convention. The Republican head - ! quartern and the hotels looked lively | with politicians arranging matters forl the day. At 11 o'clock the doors of i tie church were opened, and the building was instantly filled, still leaving about hvo thousand blacks outside. Up to this timo very few ol the while Republicans, recently appointed by County CoUvcn . lions, bad made tlieir appearance. J lie j while - present arc about fifty in , number. Ku umo.no, August I. Tin: licpubii i ..n Convention ne t Ibis morning. I Then: were about five thousand persons present—neatly all blacks. The African Church, upon being opened, was inline ! diately filled ; and a motion was made ! to adjourn to I lie Capitol square, which I was carried. After arriving there, Mr. Hawxlmrst, of Alexandria, was up -1 pointed temporary Chairman, ami Mr. Whittlesey, ol the same place, temporary i Secretary. j A reetv- wie- idieu taken to appoint a i committee to report on permanent i officers. Richmond, August I.—During the S recess, several short addresses were mad", all of them relating to the course j of Kott- and his clique, and the pro posed Convention called by the hand I bill. Bolt- was denounced a- desiring I to make the Republican party of the ] State subservient to lii- party, or bleak i it up. There were loud cries lor Bolts, ami j a proposition was made to send a com mittee to invite him to explain bis position, but it failed. Rev. Mr. Givens then made an address, mid the Convention formally re assembled about five o'clock. The committee on permanent oliicers reported in favor of appointing all the old oliicers ol the April Convention, and recommended that the platform of that Convention be adopted without alteration. The report as to the officers was adopted, and Mr. John Hawxhurst was declared permanent chairman. The recommendation as to the plat form gave ri-o to an excited debate. Mr. Butts, of Norfolk, said if this Convention, which was termed a Mass Meeting, adopted the platform, it would lent' nolbing to do but go home: and if they did tlmt, then thp meeting held by the other win . lo night, calling itself a Convention, would remain in session two or three days, adopt a platform, appoint an Executive Committee, and the Republicans would go into the campaign with two parties, which would be ruinous. lie was followed by J. \Y. Hunnieutt, who urged the propriety of adjourning until to morrow at ten o'clock, in order to give the other wing, who had not attended this meeting, time to come in: and if then they would not come in. • the blame would he upon themselves. ' Several motions were made to adjourn and tailed. Great contusion lvigued around the speakers stand. Messrs. Baker am! Sterling, both white, attempted to address the body. Baker declaring that lie would speak, as the meeting had adjourned, and Sterling taking the opposite. The colored Sergeant at Arms seized I taker to put him out, and a row seemed imminent. The platform was adopted without a dissenting voice, and the meeting was declared to be adjourned until ten o'clock to morrow morning. Richmond, Augu t 1. r. v.— To night, the appointed meeting or Republican Convention, at the Capitol, did nol take place. In it- stead a number of the member* of to day' Convention appeared and organized tho meeting in the ball of the House of Delegate*, with Fields Crook (colored) in the chair. Several made -pecehc- complaining • of tho action of the Convention to day in hurried and unfair. Mr. Crenshaw (while), of Henrico, complained that Franklin Stearns, who had been appointed by that county a : delegate to r •present it on the com* mittee cm organization, had been re jected. It. It. Berkley, colored Radical, of Alexandria, denounced the way in which tin - <‘oiivemion was conducted, and stated that ihe country delegation wa* crowded out by the Richmond crowd, li tvas he aid, a premeditated affair, ns ihe Stoic Central Committee stole in ibe back door and arranged matters, "bile rightful delegate.* l , from other part- of the State were kept locked out until all was ready, lie protested against the meeting to day, that it was no Convention, and should not be called so. lie wanted all elates and everliodv represented at a Convention, and hoped the colored men would see that such a one was held. He wanted to hear what Mr. Bolts'had to say: he did not intend nor did the colored people intend, to he led by Mr. Hunnieutt, or Mr. Butts, or tiny one else who wanted to use them for the purpose of getting office. A committee was appointed to wait on , Mr Bolls anil sec- if he would address the meeting to night. On invitation Mr. Bolts declined, though it is under j stood he will address the meeting to ; morrow morning. It is understood by influential Republicans here that the meeting ■ called for to night does nol take place, because negotiations, are in progress which will avert a split in the party. . Caucusses are being held to night to arrange for to morrow. file platform drawn up by Mr. Bolts, | and which was unanimously approved by the conservative wing of the party last night, asserts that secession is treason, and treason i, .. crime. It advocates tree speech without licentious ness ; I lie payment ol the public debt, and repudiation of the Confederate debt, and a liberal system of internal improvement. Tbe following i.- the ln-v parugtaph : “General amnesty and restoration to .".II civil and political rights to the rank and file of the army, and to the great body of flic people who were misled ami seduced into tin: war by more artful nml wicked men, or who wore forced by conscription or otherwise ; but exclusion from all political power hereafter to those who were instrumental, either by speaking, writing or preaching, in bringing on the watv b_v ‘which tills Stale was reduced to division, humiliation, poultry and ruin, ns unfit custodians of j Ihe public honor and general prosperity of the State. T his is nothin;: more ami nothing less than they would do with ail opposed to them who have committed no crime, ii they hud the power.” Richmond. August -The Conven tion met at ten o'cloek, on Capitol Square. I’resent, about two thousand colored and twohuudrod white persons. Dr. Bayne, colored, of Norfolk, moved an adjournment xlne die, ns tho Convention had accomplished its work, which proposition was hailed with cheers. The motion was opposed by Mr. Hunnieutt, who wanted an opportunity to be given to Mr. liotts and others, who wished to speak. Amid some confusion, a vote was finally taken, and the Convention ad journed sine die, with great cheering. A mass mooting was then organized, and Mr. Butts made a speech, entering upon personal explanations, endorsing the platform adopted by the Republican party, and read an address, which, he said, had met the approval of Judge l mlenvood and Mr. Hunnieutt. The address recites events since the close of the war, and comments upon the eon duet of a portion of the Southern people, actuated by ['resident John son's policy, which had delayed recon struction. Governor Pierpoint. made a brief speech, followed by Attorney Chandler, Rev. Mr. Givens. Lewis Bcott, and others. The following preamble and resolu tions were introduced and adopted : NVh ! !»i;as. The loyal American citi zens will soon be required to select a representative man as lire candidate for the office now held by the chance President of the United Btai .-s, and as the late war lias placed the Republican party a: well as the nation under obligations to many distinguished Gene rals for the service rendered in the desperate struggle (or liberty and greatness, and as tbe names of Gens.

The consequence is that instead of ihe genuine McLANE’S VERMIFUGE, they frequently get one or the other ot tfie many wortblegepreparations called Vermifuge now before the public. We, therefore, beg leave to urge uponthe Planter the propriety and importance of invariably writing the name m full, and to advisetheir factors or agents that thev will not receive am S.T^, t Tv^ t « e .S? nuinc DR - McLANE’S CELEBRATED VERMIFUGE, prepared bv Fleming brothers, pittsbubg, pa. i the same precautions in ordering DR.

Be'not deceived! |>R. Celebrated lilt arc the original and only reliable remedy for Liver Complaint that lias yet beendiscovered, and we urge the Planter aud Merchant, as he !

Ai< LANE'S CELEBRATED LIVER PILLS a * a remedy lor LIVEK aud BILIOUS COMPLAINTS, wc presume no apology will be needed. The greatprcvalcnee of Liver Complaint and Bilious Diseases of all kinds throughout the United States, and peculiarly iu the West and South, where, in the majority ol eases, the patient is not within the reach of a regular physician, requires t hat some remedy should be provided, that would not iu the least impair the eonstitu tiou, aud yet be sale and cll'cetual. That such is the true character of DR. McLANE'S LIVER FILLS, there can be no doubt. The U*timony we lay before you, and the great success which has invariably attended their use, will, we think be sufficient to convince the most incredulous. It has been our sincere wish that these Pills should be fairly aud fully tested, and stand or fall by the elfects produced. That they have been so tested, and that the result lias been in every respect favorable, we call thou sands to wituesowho have experienced their beneficial elfects. DR. Mi LANE’S LIVER PILLS, are not held forth or recommended (like mo.*l ol the popular medicines of the day,) as universal eure-alls, but simply for LIN EB COMPLAINTS, and those symptoms connected with a deranged state of that organ. DISEASES 0E THE LIVER, The Liver is much more frequently ihe -eat t-i di.-ease than i* generally *uppo ed. The function it is designed to perform, and on the regular execution of which depends not onlythe general health of the body, but the powers of the Stomach, Bowels, Brain, and the w hole Nervous System, shows it.-> vast and vital importance to human health. When the Liver Li soriousiy diseased it in fact not only derang< * the vital functions <>| the body, hut exercises apowerful influence over the miiul and Jts operations, which cannot easily be described, it Las i*o close a connection to other diseases, and muni lest* iiMrlf by -o great a\arieiy of symptoms, of a most doubtful character, that it misleads more physician*, even of great eminence, tlum any other organ. The intimut* eonneelion which exists between the Liver and the Brain, and the great dominion which lam persuaded it exercises over the passions ot mankind, convince me that many unfortunate being* have committed acts of deep and criminal atrocity, or be come w hat tools term hypochondriac*, from the simple fact of a diseased state of ts Liver. 1 have long been convinced that more than one half ofthe complaints which occur Li this country, arc to be considered as. having their seats in a diseased state of the Liver. 1 will « numerate some of them: Indigestion, Stoppage ol the Menses, Deranged state of the Bowels, irritable and Vindictive Feelings and Passions from trilling and inadequate causes, of which wc afterwards feel ashamed ; last, though not least, more than three-fourth* of the diseases, enumerated under-the head of Consumption, have their seat in a diseased Liver. This is trully a frightful catalogue. SIMIPTOBS OF % I)ISI:ASI:I> JLITEK.—Fain ill the. right side, under tlui edge of the ribs, increasing on pressure; sometimes the pain is in the Wt, side ; the patient is randy able to lie on the left side ; sometimes the pain is felt under the shoulder blade, and it frequently extends to the top of the shoulder, and is some times mistaken for rheumatism inthe arm. The stomach affected with logs of appetite and sickness ; the bowels in general are costive, sometimes alternating with lax; the head is troubled with pain, accompanied with dull, heavy sensaaion in tin back part. There is generally a considerable loss of memory, accompanied with a paintul sensation >f having left*undone something which ought to havebcen dofle. A slight dry cough is sometimes an attendant. The patient complains of weariness and debility ; lie is easily startled ; his feet are cold or burning, and he. complains of a prickly sensatien ofthe r-kin ; liis spirit* -.ire low ; and although he is satisfied that exercise w ould hc 4 bcm fielal to hint, yet lie can scarcely summon up forude tituuougTT to try it. In fact,he distrusts every remedy. Several of the above symptoms attend the disease; but cases have occurred where few’ of them existed, yet examination of the body after death has shown tho Liver to have been extensively deranged. VGlfi: n» PEVEIL—DR. McLANE’S LIVER PILLS Incases of AGUE AND FEVER, w hen taken with Quinine, are productive of happy results. No better catharticean be used preparatory to, or alter taking Quinine. We would advisc'all who are afflicted with thedisease to give them a trial. ■M reel ion -Take two or three Pill* on going to bed, every second or third night, lit hey do not purge two or three times next morningi take one or two more: but a >light breakfast should iuvariably follow their use. The Liver Pills may be usod where purging simply isneeessary. As anti bilious purgative. Ho y are inferior to none, and in do.*cs of two or three, they give astonishing relief in .Sick Headache; also in slight derangements of the Stomach. Me I.A N BBS AMERICAN WORM SPECIFIC OR VERMIFUGE. No disease to which the human body i~ liable ar.- better entitled to the attention «»f the philanthropist than those consequent on the irritation produced by WORMS in the Stomach and Bowels. When the sulfeivr is an adult, the cause is frequently over looked, ami consequently the proper remedy is not applied. Bui when the patient is an infant, if the disease i* not entirely ncgleeted, it is .-till too frequently ascribed, in whole or in part, to some other cause, itought here to be particularly remorked, that although but few worms may exi*t in a child. andhuw>oewr quiescent they may have beehi previously, no sooner is the constitution invaded by any* any of thenumerous train of di ‘. ases to wliieh infam y i* exposed, than it is fearfully augmented by their irritation. Hence it too frequently happen* that a disease otherwise easily managed by proper remedies, whin aggravated by that cause, bids defiance to treatment, judi cious in other respects but w hich entirely fail* in consequence of worms being over looked. And even in eases of great violence, if a potent aud prompt remedy be pos sessed, so that they could he expelled without loss of time, which is so precious in such cases, the •ease might be attacked, Lv proper remedies, even-lnVndcd, and with success.

The universal success which lias attended the administration of this preparation lias been *ueh as to warrant us in pledging ourselves to the public to RETURN THE MONEY iu every instance where it proves ineffectual, providing the symptoms attending tiie sieknes* of ilie child or adult warrant tiie supposition of worms being the cause.
