JOHNSTONE, Editor And Publisher Mercantile Index Savannah, Aug. 23, 1866. 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 cial investigation. Homicide in Macon.—On Saturday las 1 Alexander Redding shot Charles Cherry twice with a pistol—the second time through the heart, killing him almost instantly. The wife of Cherry was present, and while endeavor ing to prevent bloodshed, narrowly escaped being wounded herself. By Telegraph. NIGHT DISPATCHES. From Baltimore. PRESIDENT JOHNSON, GEN.

In Brooklyn six cases were reported to-day, three of which were fatal. 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, JUUKTUARY.
