«*•**• The telegraph from

Adam's and Avery's, and in half an hour
the whole aqnare, excepting Mabbitte house
was entirely coosuraed.
The Brooks family saved nothing but
bedding, clothing, and a few good*. The
house, kitchen, and nil the furniture was
total loss. . ....
Finch's splendid stock wns almost entire-
lydestroyed. Loss said to he *8,00(1 to
10,000. Dr. Lawson lost his all; books, pa
pers, manuscripts and everything.
Dr. Hicks, tj|C Dentist, lost all.
Dr. McCall’s Drug Storo was almost an
entire loss.
The Smith's lost hesvily.
Mr. Avery saved one ehow cate of his
• fine stock.
Mr. Fcrhain said the entire loss wte
about 175,000. Tho telegraph office with
all the appnrtanaocea wore burned. The
Photograph Gsllery lost everything.
Not a breath ol air waa alirriog—but the

Our people are grieved for present

of the freedmen behaved heroically, ionic

men liave had the boldness to apeak, while
ibe conflicting and disjointed counsels of the
press arid'small politicians, have rendered
concert ot notion utterly injjiosaihle. At U
true weiiave not been in a condition to make
any decided movement towards etespn from
thraldom; but if we had| been thoroughly
organized, mid bad directed tiie whole intel
lect and energies of the State to the single
straight forward purpose,radicalism would
liavo met with signal defeat in the late alec-
thin mockery. Tho refusal ot the whit.
|H'Oplc to vote, wa* not the rc*ult ol nar-
monioun counsel, or nny deiinito'idca of the
effect; but they Instinctively turned from
it aa a loatliesomc pfilitioal leprosy—» pcs-
lllcnco not to bo approached without contam
ination, or touched without death. A peo
ple so united upon one thought, and noting
s,i harmoniously upon impulse, cannot fail
in the accomplishment ol their purpose, 1!
system and organixstion discipline their
movements. Organisation gives form anil
pressure to ideas, and nssigna to each man
hi,'appropriate duties; so that tho whole

to tiie attainment of tho samo end.
Tho Immediate future is pregnant with
great events, and tho crises through
which this country is to pass, within a few
short months, admonish ns to put our
house, in order, .nd he re.dy to meet the
dire Issues that rosy be evolved from tho
crucible of political corruption snd party
madness. It is time for the wise men ol the
i:oantry to meet in solemn counsel, and put
forth tbe power* of truth, intellect and pa-
triotisin.to stay the storm that is sweeping
sway tho liberties of the people, and cor
roding the publie virtuo of tho land.
Without any furor, or braggart demon
stration. to eicite the passions, or rouse re
sentment, we urge, with earnest sincerity,
the assembling of our best men in conven
tion There need be no unnecessary display
of forms or ceremony In tho manner ol se
lecting detegates-it may be that they will
have to take part in tho funeral services of
the Republic, and they should therefore hi
named lor their virtues, their moderation,
and their statesmanship. lm P ro t 'T 1 ’. t "

telligent and reliable gentleman who was
iiaceeut, that the Grand Jury did find a
■ nut bill for perjury against Footer Blodgett
l’hat during lira night, Gov. Brown, coun-
V,.| for Blodgett, ascertnlned that fourteen
,r the i-annel voted lor the finding, and that
1 hey could not take the Iron clad oath. The
names- were ascertained lrom some juror
who could take that or nny other oath, and
on the sitting ol tho Court next morning
Brown appeared, made affidavit thattheju
ry wa. not a legal jury; that fourteen
,1 them were prrjudieed; and that Blodgett
could not get justice at their hand.. L pon
title affidavit, he moved to be » llowed *"
challenge the fourteen for cause. Aftet
argument tho motion wae sustained by
Judge Eskine. Twelve of the fourteen.
on being informed that they would have to
take the iron clad oath, left the jury. This
proceeding, uf course, veivated the finding,
and Blodgett atood unaccused. At thle
stage of tho game, two other jurors, who
had voted against the finding, announced
ihst they could not tsko tho oath. The
Court imformed them that they had not
been challenged, and were competent to ait
in the case. Ckkditk Foersui f
