THE
ARREST OF REGULATORS IN
LIBERTY COUNTY.
In another column we give an account of
the arrest by U. 8. officers and soldiers from
this city of seven men, supposed to be part
of a gang of “Regulators" in Liberty county,
who it is alleged have geen guilty of some
very high-handed acts. We take pleasure
in stating upon unquestionable authority that
perfect harmony exists between the military
and civil authorities in regard to the course
to be pursued in the apprehension and pun
ishment of the guilty parties. Having been
arrested by authority from the military Head
quarters here, the men were brought to this
city, but after a conference between Major
Cochran, commanding the Post, and his
Honor Mayor Anderson, they were remanded
to the county in which the offence or offences
were alleged to. have been committed, for
trial before the civil tribunal having legiti
mate jurisdiction.
In his interview with the commandant of
the Post, Mayor Anderson expressed his con
demnation, which we feel assured will be
concurred in by our people generally, of such
acts as the arrested parties are said to have
perpetrated. Other prominent citizens of
Chatham and the adjoining counties are
equally decided in their condemnation of
such outrages. In fact, we are sure there is
not a citizen, having the interests of the com
munity at heart, who upholds the commission
of deeds of the character ascribed to the ille
gal organization referred to, and we feel as
sured also that all the substantial citizens of
label tj vuunty Trill t>© rejwloo<l at tbo iiltCr
ference which will put a stop to the depre
dations complained of.
A CONVENTION THAT DIDN’T CON
VENE.
There is said to be a baker’s dozen of poli
ticians in Florida, known as “Southern Radi
cals,” who proposed, a short time since, to
hold a Convention at Tallhassee, for the pur
pose of appointing delegates to represent
that State in Jack Hamilton’s Convention, to
be held in Philadelphia on the third proximo.
It seems the movement, as we expected,
didn’t amount to much. The Tallahassee
Floridian records its demise as follows:
Some how or other the Convention of* “Uncondi
tional Unionists" of this State, called to meet at Tails
hasaee yesterday, “to appoint delegates to represent
Florida in the Convention of Southern Unionists, to
be held in Philadelphia, September 3d," did not meet.
We understand that Mr. O. B. Hart, of Jacksonville,
and some gentlemen of the same persuasion from For-
nan din a, whose names we were not so fortunate as to
learn, were in town, but they did not organize.
On some accounts we regret the failure of this Con
vention. Had it assembled it would have given the
lie to one Radical statement, that such a meeting
would not be permitted to be held any where in the
South. We are confident his Excellency the Governor
would have put the Capitol at their disposal for a plaee
of meeting, and know that its members might have
held their proceeedings without interruption.
The Gold Excitement.—The fact is being
daily demonstrated, says the Atlanta Intelli
gencer, that the mineral resources of Georgia
are illimitable. The developments are rich
and rare, and capital and labor are only
wanted to disentomb this treasure from the
bowels ot the earth. A dozen or more beau
tiful nuggets were shown us yesterday by
Mr. R. F. Tinsley, taken from the “ Camp
bell Gold Mine," lying on the line of Forsyth
and Milton counties, one mile fuesn Shady
Grove, better known as “ Shake Rag.” This
place Ls now owned by Mr. Tinsley, who
proposes to work the mine at an early day,
and to that end will receive proposals for the
formation of a joint atock company. The
nuggets shown us weigh three pennyweights
and downward.
The Navt and the National Union
Movement.—We find in a Washington paper
a short, but spirited address by Commodore
Barrett, to the officers of the United States
Navy and Marine Corps, urging them to send
delegates to the Soldiers Convention, to be
held in Cleveland on the 17th proximo. He
aays the navy may impart an inestimable
moral power to the movement which con
templates the ultimate consummation of
peace and harmony in the Republic. In any
event, let them not be behind their comrades
of the army ir. the public endeavor.
Soldiers' and Sailors’ League of Wash-
iiioton.—At a meeting of the soldiers and
Milora of the District, held at the City Hall
on Thursday last, resolutions were adopted
endorsing the policy of the Administration
and the action of the Philadelphia Conven
tion. More th an seventy soldiers signed the
endorsement.
A committee on permanent organization
was appointed, the object being to form an
association of conservative soldiers, in oppo
sition to the Union League o( that city-
'Dude in Powder abd Arms.—It is au
thoritatively announced that the trade in
powder and arms in this -country is now en
tirely free. The Secretary of the Treasury
has forwarded instructions to the Collector
of New York, and, It is understood, like
wise to customs and revenue officers else
where, that permits that have hitherto been
necessary lor shipments of gnus, powder,
percussion cape, 4c , to the Southern States
are no longer required.
Bishop Verov.—'The rite of confirmation
Wtt administered in the Catholic Church at
Macon, on Sunday last, by Bishop Verot, oi
this dty, to thirty members. The occasion
ia referred to by the Journal and Messenger
•• having been highly interesting.
For the purpose of attending the.greakNa-
tionai Union Convention in Philadelphia, we
embarked on the steamship Gen. Barnes,Capt.
T. H Morton, for New York, on the morn
ing of the ltth Inst. We were disappointed
at not finding several delegates frofn bur sec
tion oi the State whom we expected to meet
among the pasaengera, but the disappoint
ment was compensated for by the excellent
company on board, ladies and gentlemen ol
our accgmintaOBe, Who. wfere visiting the
North for pleasure, health or business. Du
ring the passage we experienced the usual
variety of fair and rough weather; while
many pleasant iucVdaoU frfipuWed to'relieve
the monotony, MUfifig ’ tidMpired-. wor
thy of especial mention. With a good sea-
boat, skillful and courteous officers, who left
nothing undone that could contribute to the
comfort and enjoyment of the passen
gers, the time passed pleasantly until we
reached the harbor of New York, early on
Sunday mornwg. Some of our fellow pas
sengers had been prisoners of war. To these
Fort Lafayette, Governor's Island, Ac., were
objects of special interest, reviving not alto
gether pleasant recollections of pest expe
riences, w bile the fortificatip ns, tjiii 4h(pping,
surrounding islands and 'highlands, clotted
with populous villages or crowned with
stately edifices, with all the evidences of
busy commerce aodgenern 1 prosperity, so
strikingly in contrast with the scenes of de
vastation and ruin which we had leu, were
subjects of general admiration end comment.
After a brief visit from the health officer our
apprehensions of quarantine were relieved,
and we were permitted to steam up to the
wharf, where we were soon beset by innu
merable hack-drivers, porters and express-
men, by whom we werefdistributed, bag and
baggage, at our respective hotels.
We found ail that a weary, sea-tired trav
eler could desire, in the elegant comforts of
the New York Hotel, kept by that prince of
hotel keepers, Mr. Hiram Cranston. The
day being excessively warm, we passed the
morning in rest, and altera dinner which did
not belie the bill of fare, paid a visit to the
Central Park, and spent the evening strolling
through the grounds, admiring the beauties
of nature and art with which the place
abounds. It #onld requite a volume to con
vey to the reader an idea of this enchanting
retreat. Suffice it to say that it is nnsur
passed by any public or private grounds in
this country or in Btrfope, and should be
visited more than once by strangers who de
sire to have a jnst appreciation of this crown
ing beauty of the great commercial empo
rium of America.
Missing the morning trains, we took the
Camden and Amboy line in the afternoon, for
Philadelphia, where we arrived at six o’clock
in the evening, to find Chestnut street, the
great thoroughfare, thronged with people,
and the hotels crowded to repletion. Learn
ing that our best chance for accommodation
was at the La Pierre, on Broad street, we
drove there just in time to secure one of
three cots in a small room, on the floor next
hut one to the roof of that splendid edifice
After tea we sallied out to look at the great
[A/litiCttl gniburiag vru OlicalUllV Bliwt. 1 DC
sidewalks were densely thronged, and-the
streets so filled that it was with difficulty
that the omnibuses were enabled to pass to
and fro. The Continental and the Girard
Hotels, standing opposite each other, were
like immense hives, the crowds at each blend
ing with the other across the street. Such
confusion—such a rushing and crowding.to
war. Slavery is forever dead. Secession is
impracticable—an abstraction. As such the
South has abandoned them, accepting the
result of the war in good faith. What im
proper concession, then, does she make in
accepting the platform of the Philadelphia
Convention ? Words and phrases less offen
sive to her sensibilities might have been
nhnaan, but the choice of .terms would not
have bettered her condition, nor strength
ened the hands of her friends in their strug
gle with her Rsdical enemies.
But enough‘of the Convention, of which
we shall have other occalRns to speak. A
imagined, mnch less described by one who
has never witnessed a similar scene. Every
body was endeavoring to go somewhere, or
to find somebody, while nobody knew where
they were themselves, or Where to find any
body else. If there wa* anything »be learned
about the Convention or anything else, that
was not the place to learn it|; so, after
struggling through the living mass for an
hour or two, we sought comparative quiet
amid the bable in the reading room of
the LaPifrre, perusing the ctiy paper:
The Radical sheets were very violent in
their denunciations of the Convention, and
some of their articles were of a character to
justify anticipations of a mob. On the other
hand, the Conservative journals gave ossnr
ances that the authorities of the city wonld
preserve- the public pence and protect the
Convention from violence. On this subject
considerable uneasiness was at one time felt
It was well known that the elements for a
mob were abundant in the city; inflamatory
placards ware posted, snd ortfcte* had &p
peared in some of the radicals papers, which,
if they were not written for the purpose of
inciting a riot were most adroitly calculated
to bring about such a result Happily there
was no outbreak during the Convention,
though sotee slight demonstrations of a riot
ous character were made in the vjcinity of
the Continental and Girard Hotels,
Wednesday night We learned after
wards that it had been determined by a
portion of the radicals to break up the Con
vention, and that the attempt was only
prevented by the fact coming to their knowl
edge that the coma relive nad democratic
friends of s Acted a
thorough, ind orgaltirethmjo meet
them, and who wonld have visited a severe
retribution upon them. Morton McMichael,
Ihq., Mayw «HbpW^y> firm and
decided stand in support of peace and order,
and.the efficient services of his police force
during the sitting of the Conveetion proved
that they bad no sympathy with the mob
spirit
The Convention assembled et-tbe appointed
hour—organized and conducted its proceed
ings without molestation, add with the ut
most concord and harmony. The action of
the Convention la before the country and we
need make no reterenoe to it here. If
the platform of principles, and the adtjoess
by which these principles are commended to
the judgment and support of the people,,
give encouragement to the hope that the
Constitution may yet be restored and the
Union preserved—if the formal action of the
Convention is calculated to .inspire such a
hope, the enthusiasm and mutual good feeling
which characterized the deliberations of the
body and the personal Intercourse of its mem
bers must have confirmed the confidence of
all who witnessed it in the sincerity and
earnest determination of the representative
men of all sections who composed the Con
vention to accomplish the patriotic object
which had brought them together, i
It has been said that ia aooepting the plat
form of principle* promulgated at Philadel
phia the South has conceded too' much of
principle. She has conceded no aorviviog
principle. Certainly Philadelphia was not
the place to contend for rights which had
been determined on the battle-fields ot the
great and patriotic movement has been loan-,. was given returned, and slated that the pit-.
gurated for the redemption of the country,
in the support of which all friends of repub
lican government should be willing to make
some sacrifices of feeling, prejudice, and even
of interest- The .battle must be fought at
the ballotehox in the North and West. If
the cause of constitutional liberty is lost, it
will not be the fault of the South.
Leaving Philadelphia on Friday morning,
we had little time to visit points of interest,
or take a general survey of the city. It has
experienced great changes since the long time
ago when we were familiar with its localities.
It has grown to nearly double its size in those
days, but in its general aspect it has changed
very little. It is still the same clean, angular,
beautiful city. The old Arcade, the old Drury,
and the substantial old brick buildings on
Chestnut street, have given place to elegant
marble and stone edifices; and the drab coats
and snug Qnaker bonnets have nearly all dis
appeared. Bat it is still the same City of
Brotherly Love that it was a quarter of a cen
tury ago, as much unlike New York, and
liked as little by New Yorkers, as ever.
Returning to New York on Friday even
ing, we again made onr home at the New
York Hotel, where we found saTeral old Sa
vannah friends, and many acquaintonces
from various parts of the South, with whom,
as we wonld probably not soon have another
opportunity of doing so, we determined to
spend a few days in recreation and sight-see
ing in and about Gotham. They told us that
it was the dull season, and that half the city
was ont of town, bnt even to us, just from
the smart commercial metropolis of Georgia,
the place seemed qnite lively, with a conside
rable amount of business activity, and cer
tainly people enough to keep one another in
countenance. Many of the churches were
closed, but the places of amnsement were in
full blast, and tbroDged nightly. On Broad
way an incessant stream of lively humanity
flowed and surged, day aDd night—the omni
buses, often three abreast, thundered over
the Russ pavement—while wagons, carts,
hand-esrs and private vehicles of every de
scription choked up the way. The shop
windows displayed their goods and wares ot
every kind, and at night all w&9 ablaze with
gas. Certainly there was no appearance of
dullness.
What with the places of amusement, aca
demies of art, and public institutions in the
city, island excursions, suburban drives,
nautical wonders, and other novelties, one is
at no loss, even in this dnll season, to occupy
a few days in the great city with pleasure and
profit. 8ucb, at least, was our experience,
the particulars of which, with the little mis
haps and annoyances attendant, we shall not
at present detail.
We heard very little about politics in New
York, outside of the newspapers. The Radi
cal element is not so rampant there as in
Philadelphia, and judging from our own ob
servation, the prevailing feeling there towards
the South is mnch more liberal and concilia
tory than in the latter city. As a great
commercial people they very naturally
ieei a deep interest in the revival of the plant
ing and commercial prosperity of the South,
so essential to their own advancement. We
were gratified also to find so general an ap
preciation of the agricultural and other re
sources of Georgia and the commercial im
portance and advantages of her sea-port, us
war expressed to ns by many with whom we
conversed on the subject. By many the
and fro—such, a Babel of vokjea—cannot be 1 ‘oenutnercial prospects of Savannah are re
garded* tie more promising than those of any
other Sontii-Atlantic port, and should the
country be blessed with peace, and confi
deuce be once more established between the
sections, we may confidently expect to see a
liberal investment of New York capital in
enterprises for the development of the re
sources of Georgia, and the advancement of
the commercial prosperity of Savannah.
On our return trip it was our good fortune
to strike the steamer Herman Livingston
(consort of the General Barnes), one of the
finest ocean steamers that sails from the port
of New York, and commanded by Captain
J. B. Baker, than whom a more accomplished
seaman and courteous gentleman does not
belong to the commercial marine of the
States. The Herman Livingston is not only
an excellent sea boat, bnt her internal ar
rangements are on a plan well adapted to
promote the convenience and comfort of pas
sengers, while the perfect cleanliness, order
and system which prevails throughout the
ship, the kind and accommodating spirit of
her officers, the sntnptnotu and well served
fare, are deserving of the highest commen
dation^ We simply comply with the unani
mous request of our fellow-passengers when
we heartily commend the Herman Living
ston and her gentlemanly commander and
officers to the confidence and patronage of
the traveling pfebtic.
but in a short time; came down, when he
seized a gnn and fired into the crowd onteUs,
wounding ene of them. He then managed
to make hia escape to a neighboring planta
tion.
The next day a posse of men went to the
plantation (we are unable to say whether
they had a warrant or not), and arrested the
freedman, for the purpose, aa they, laid, of
conveying him to Tamall county jail. They
started with their prisoner, and after pro
ceeding some distance gave him in charge of
two of the party, to qonvey himtojall. Some
time after, the two men in whose charge he
soner bad made his escape. A few days after
this occurrence the negro was found dead in
the woods, banging by the heels.
We forbear comments until alter the judi

EXCITEMENT IN LIBERTY COUNTY.
v
The Arrest of Parties Supposed to
Regulators.—Reported Outrages upon
Whites and Freed men.
We noticed a few d«y» since the departure
of an officer with a file of ten men, for tbe
purpose of capturing a body of men calling
themselves “Regulators," wbo bad been
committing various depredations in Liberty
county for some time past upon some of tbe
farmers, but more generally upon tbe Freed-
men.
Tbe detacbmeot ot soldiers above alluded
to, upon their arrivaljat Waltbonrville, pro
ceeded to tbe houses of tbe following
named persons, whom they had been in
formed were members of tbe Regulating
company, and arretted and broaght them
to the city on Monday afternoon last, viz:
William Delf, Benjamin Robicjlon, James
Smilie, Wilfiam ’ Smith, Charts Eastern,
Matthew- kuiklond a*d Timothy Kirkland.
Tiiey were lodged in tbe U. S. barracks.
As several of tbe party arrested'are inno
cent of tbe impaled offence, and know noth
ing about tbe organization, they will all be
sent back 10 Waltbonrville this morning, in
charge of a U. S. officer, to be arraigned be
fore tbe proper civil tribnnal of tbe county
for examination, and commitment, if found
guilty. The two leaders of the organization
managed to make their escape, bnt they have
been iglqipiod, and will doubtless be cap
tured.
flfTbe following, aa tar as we can learn, is
tbe last depredation committed by tbe al
leged guilty parties, and for which a guard
bad been sent with orders to make arrests:
It appears that tbe “Regulators” had at
tacked a freedman’s boose, and fired four
shots at tbe owner, who, being somewhat
alarmed at first, climbed np the chimney,
