THE PHILADELPHIA NATIONAL CON VENTION. The following call for a Convention of the First Congressional District, lor the selec tion nl delegates to the Philadelphia Con vention, appears in the Quitman Banner of Friday last : Convention at Blackshear. —By a uuui bur of genliemeu from different counties, we arc urged to call a convention of the 1st Congressional 'District, at Blackshear, on Friday the 27th inst., to elect delegates to the National Conservative Union Conven tion. to lie held at Philadelphia, on the second Tuesday in August uext. In ac cordance with this indication of the peo ple's wish, and iu view of the fact that the time for action is so short, we now announce to the people of the various counties com posing the First Congressional District, that a District Convention will be held at Black- shear, on Friday, lira 27th hist., for the purpose above stated. Each county, except Chatham and Thomas, is requested to send two delegates those counties lour each THE AVAR I The latest foreign previous intelligence i El HOPE, news confirms the i that the Austrians have (ought two battles, oue with the Prussians, on the Western frontier, and the other with the Italians on the Southwestern frontier. In both of these engagements the Austrians were successful, and their military prospects have accordingly greatly brightened. Gen. Benedick, the Austrian Commauder-iu-Chiet, seems to have acted with great celerity in massing his forces at the points threatened by his adversaries, aud it would appear from his succe9 .es that the strength of his army must have been underestimated by them. Tlte severe repulse of the Italians is re ported to be the result of precipitate action on the part of their commander, Victor Emanuel. It seems that to gratify his soldiers’ eager ness lor battle lie attacked the enemy before he was fully prepared at all points.— European critics say that it was clearly his duty not to have given battle until lie| had become sufficiently strong, two corps, numbering 120,Odd men being on their march to join him. Tnc Italians, however, do not despair because their first essay in arms has been unsuccessful. There is a large volun teer force under Garibaldi, which is expected to carry on a sort of guerilla warfare, attack ing the foe how. where and when their leaders think best. Tue campaign is now fairly opened, and we may expect that ever foreign mail wilt bring us interesting news of the situation. Since writing the above we have received another installment of news from Europe, from which it appears Austria has gained another victory, this time defeating the Prussian army which had invaded Bohemia, and driving it back in disorder. Within a very short time Austria has sent both of her invaders whirling back, and is no longer torced to occupy a defensive position.— Tue tables are turned and Austria will in vade Prussia.

The annoiincemefit.that Mr. Deunisdn has relinquished the porabiio of the Post Office Department, and that Secretary Harlan and Attorney Central Speed will soon act in like manner, baa not taken the public by snprise. It has been known fbf months past that be tween the President and the retiring mem l>era of his Cabinet there was not that con geniality of feeling and agreement of views in regard to important political measures which are indispensably necessary to a vigor ous and harmonious administration of the executive functions of the Government. That such was unfortunately the case is now con firmed by the statement that Mr. Dennison has assigned as a reason for bis withdrawal the belief that the President approved t e call for the Philadelphia Convention, a move ment regarded by him being; .neons,steu with the policy of the party whtch elevated Mr Johnson to his present position. The same reason will doubtless be given by the other two gentlemen if they tender their re- sign at ions. We dare say the President will not be the least embarrassed, nor the interests of the country damaged in the slightest degree by the withdrawal of one or all of the gentlemen named, as they will be succeeded, we feel as sured, by men of equal if not greater ability, aud who will be animated by a sincere aud patriotic desire to aid the President in his efforts to achieve the restoration of tli Union, aud with it good fellowship between estranged sections. That the lukewarm support so grudgingly accorded to their chief by the larger portion of his Cabinet, in his desperate straggle with the most formidable organization ever know ti in this country, contributed largely to the defeat of his reconstruction policy there is no doubt; and nothing has astonished the country more than his toleration of such heartless delinquency, and his apparent want of nerve to meot a responsibility which, if it had been met fearlessly at the commence ment of the contest would have removed the incubus, anti have ensured perhaps a speedy triumph oter the enemies of the Union. It i9 expected that now the wajf has been opened the President will immediately avail himself of the opportunity to make Un- Executive Department of the Government a unit m scutiment and purpose by a thorough, aud to himself satisfactory, reorganization ot his Cabinet; an event imperatively de manded by the necessities of a great Nation al crisis, and the consummation of which will be bailed with shouts of applause by the conservative masses, not only as a certain augury of the ultimate triumph ot his principles, but that he will thereby be re lieved of the consuming anxieties and per plexities incident to an association with men whose distinguishing traits of character arc- duplicity, selfishness, and love of power. But the most important and gratifying fea ture which has yet been presented by tbe ininisterial crisis at Washington, is the au tboritalive assurance that our incorruptible President endorses the policy which has prompted the call for the National Conven lion to assemble in Philadelphia on the 14th proximo. The grand objects of this Con vention is to obliterate the lines which di vide the North and South, lines traced by the terrible realities of war, and to restore, if possible, those fraternal relations which bound the two sections together in the better days of the Rebublic. To effect this it is proposed to bring together the represents lives of the people of all the States, that they may have an opportunity for dispassionate consideration for friendly interchange of opinion, which, it is believed, will lead to a formal expression of approval of the restora tion scheme of the President, and the organ ization of u great national party to sustain it. The movement is alike responsive to the pa triotic impulses ol our Chief Magistrate, and to the conservative masses of the North who have given the Southern people, through the press, a formal and pressing invitation t’o meet them in council and aid in the inaugura tion of the supremacy ot the popular will over taction. Certainly no true Union man, North or South, can object to this.

The ‘meeting’ nominated San Salvador Hoiden for Governor, and denounced the acts of the President as being ‘rather ambiguous,’ &c.

They are tbe true rebels igaiast the life and perpetuity of the Union and the. principles of its patriot fonnders, and their cheeks should burn with shame when they endeavor to saddle their own treasona ble designs upon an innocent party. The object of the Philadelphia Convention must, therefore, meet the approval of every patriotic man in the country. Whatever opinion may have been entertained in times past it must now be apparent to all in this section of the Union that their true interests will be more rapidly advanced by returning in good faith to the old relations which con nected them with the people of the North ; that nothing is now to be gained by segrega tion. It occurs to us that no good, but, on the contrary, much harm, would result from yielding up the Government entirely to the control of others, and hence it seems wiser to abide by the fortunes of our country, and seek to give direction to that Government which may affect, for com ing. years, the destiny of oursslves and onr children. Let us then greet our Northern and West ern friends, aud pledge them in the proposed (.'onvention our hearty co-operation and as sistance in their noble efforts to restore the Government to its original parity and free dom. Not to do so will have the effect to cherish resentments and create the impression that we are averse to reunion upon any terms, however just and equitable. Admitting the lan guage of the call for the convention is not alto gether unexceptionable, yet the importance ■ f the object in contemplation is too great to allow unto decline an invitation«o cordially made by those who are manifestly sustaining the President, and will doubtless accord to us all the rights to which we are entitled under the Constitution, without reference to the relations of the Southern States to the Fede ral Government during the late war. This is so manifestly the spirit which should control the deliberations of that body if it is to accomplish any good result, that it would be a violation of the rules of sound reasoning to impute a different course to those who are seeking onr co-operation in the great work of political reform. deni' ll representation in Congress not secure it in convention while we may, and by the acceptance of the lesser right ob tain a pledge of the greater. But it sent at all, it is important that good men, and true sup porters of the President aud his administra tion. his policy, and plan of reconstruction, should be our representatives in that Conven tion. We have just such raeu iu our midst; men who once soldiers are now the belter citizens, aud would make excellent dele gates, representing, as they would, the prin ciples aud wishes and feelings of the people. Other States arc moving in the matter of rep resentation in tb dersto.nl that the Washington administration is desirous of as large a Southern representa tion as possible. ‘Come let us reason to gether.’ and our differences and wounds will be healed, thongh the sears remain. ’ _jjlw People iflovtag. £ CalU have been made lor thff meeting of CITY HOTEL BUILDINGS.

The object of the Convention appears to have been lo organize a political party in the interest of the freed- men ami their equality under the law. A leading object appears also to have been to investigate the conduct ot Bryant, both as editor of the Ix»yalGeorgian and also fcs.to tbe alleged swindling of treedmen. After an erparte hearing, without aurumouing wit nesses against Bryant, the investigating com mittee reported favorably to him, adding, however, a resolution condetniDg the attacks on Gen. Tillson, which haye appeared in the Georgian, and demaudiDg that they shall eease. Just before the Convention adjourned Gen. Tillson, oa Friday night, on iuvitatiou, ad dressed the Convention in a lengthy speech, in which be gave utterance to many sound stud valuable suggestions as to the policy the Ircedmen should pursue. In the course of bis address he denounced the conduct of Bryant as injurious to their race, and charac terized him as a liar, a scoundrel and a beggar. He declared that Bryant is engaged in wring ing money from tbe hard earnings of the poor fretdlfien under the pretence of being their friend, while his chief object is the promo tion of his own interests. He expressed a contempt for any man who would prostitute himself to such shameless practices, and warned them lo beware of him. The Convention passed a resolution thanking the General for bis speech, and tbe inlormation it contained. Bryant was pres ent, as chairman of the meeting. We un derstood that before leaving the city a large number ot tbe delegates expressed their opinion that Bryant is a rogue, and their de termination to a iscountenance him. Gen.
