The stamp duly regulations luivc been so ehangod as to exempt from stamp duty tlio receipts for the delivery of nil property hy Express Com jinnies or Railroads. “Small favors thankfully recoiv.-d,” <*r„ "’ill i)o the exclamation of all business men who have boat annoyed by the hlhivc. There is still r ein for improve ment. Dangerous Counterfeit. The late counterfeit S.'/t greenbacks is considered by the Tr< usury Department as one of the*best ever issued. The tig nres on the faces of the notes are not so distinct as those of genuine issue, anti the iirfitations of the lathe-work will not bear , elose scrutiny. The-ignatures ofthe Reg ister and Treasurer are nearly perfect, and the seal of tic- Trea ury, printed in red ink,' is- said to lie the be--t ever -n upon a conterfeit note. The detectives have succeeded in securing nearly f40,000, and also th« plates from which 'the notes were printed. Constable’s Election. Tiic Inferior Court on Monday last adopt ed ilie following: Ordered, Tliat an election l>e held on the first Saturday in September n*-xt, in each of tlie Militia Districts in this'county* for two Constables for each of said Districts, where there an- not duly elected Consta bles, and that tin- Magistrates of the seve ral Districts is- required to superintend said election, and take satisfactory bonds from said Constables, and file the same with the i 'h rk of this < ' <urt as required by law.” VVe learn thut much confusion prevails in consequence of Magistrates in some dis tricts having appointed more than thole- ! gal number of Constables. We trust that ' good and efficient men will be elected. iiigam;. i>r. Klihti Tohtnd, formerly of Edgefield District, was lately indicted, in Cad-den, Merida, tor bigamy. He plead guilty, and was fined one thousand dollars and costs. His first wife was an amiable and interesting lady—daughter of Johnson Lowry, Esq., and sister-in-law of li. L. Centrv, I. q., of Hamburg, at whose in stance 'Poland was prosecuted. He had married a wealthy young ladv of Quincy, during liis sojourn there u« surgeon. His lawful wife is hiking steps to get a divorce. In bis confession, he declared certain statements that he bad made derogatory to (lie character of his lawful wife, to he entirely unfounded, and 'stated that slie- hud always been faithful to him. He further declared that what ho miglit have said against tier was done while iie was under the influence of liquor. Arc the Dug Days Overt During the reign of the dog star—that is during the time when the rising of Sirius nearly corresponds to the rising ofthe sun, we lmve been taught to look for blazing hot weather. Wo were under the impression that tile heated term ended about the 11th of August. We have waited anxiously for the advent of the blissful period when the malignant influence ascribed by astrolo g<Ts to this planetary contiguity, should cease. The 11(h was hot- the 12th was Dot— 1 ter—tlie l.'ith was hotter still—and yester day, but for the intervention of a friendly 1 cloud in tlie afternoon, would have fully, sustained the reputation of the balance of the week for caloric radicalism. We were losing faith in tin* dog-star,and had almost become settled in our mind that the Mil- , lorite, who predicted tliat it would contin- | no to get hotter and hotter until erea- i tion went to eternal smash, was cor- i reel; lmt on referring to the almanac makers, we find tliat they differ- Like doc tors—and some of them make the helical | (no profanity intended) rising ofthe dog star, from the 3d of July to the 11th of Au gust, while others give it from July 21th to August 2 It it. Tito little “purp” started early enough this year to have quit on the 11th, lmt as it seems determined to suit all the alumnae makers, by running until the i!4tli, wo advise everybody to buy a sala mander safe, and keep as cool as possible. Tlie Miss Sedgwick’s School. We take pleasure in calling attention to the card ofthe Misses Sedgwick, who lmve taken the elegant mansion of tlie late Mr. Chew, where they M ill open a Boarding School of a high order. They have en gaged u corps of first class teachers - the best that could be found in tho country— ladies of refinement and culture, and it is tliolr determination lo make It the best school In the South. Their English teacher is a lady from South Carolina, a native of Columbia, where she was educated and taught several years with success. Miss Wobcr will havo charge of the Musical department, and Miss Campbell will give instructions in Drawing and l’ninting.— Until these ladies are well known in Au gusta ns competent teachers. The French teacher is a native of • lonova, in Switzer land, hut was educated in l’nris. No extra charge will lie made for French lessons. Tins general supervision of tlie Boarding and Scholastic department will bo dis charged by till* Principals, who taught in Ihe city with success for several years. This school will supply a want long felt in this community—anil especially desirable now, when few feel able to send their daughters abroad -and wo sincerel\ hope that tlio enterprise of its accom plished projectors will be rewarded with u liberal patronage. City Debt—City Progress. A writer in the Qjn.stUutwnali.-it says that tli(> Held ofthu city is now #1,118,000, while the assessed value ot real estate is fl\e mil lions and sixty thousand dollars 0(10,000) The debt, therefore, is more than do per ' cent, of the assessed value of the real os- j late, and larger in proportion than the na- j tional debt of the United States. This viewofonr tinanees shows certain ty the importance of a wise and prudent I administration of the affairs of the city. It 1 does not follow, however, that, because we j are iu debt, all public improvements should cease. On the contrary -everything that is practicable should be done to enhance the j suluoof real estate, and increase the pop ulation, thereby increasing the revenues ot the oily. The street railroad would do j more, perhaps, than anything else to in- l crease our population. Its construction j would employ several hundred laborers j during the balance of the year, and a largo [ force of regular employees. It would draw thousands to our suburbs, who would Is contributors in every form to all the inter ests of the city. It would relax the grip ot the landlords, who are throttling the very life of the community by exorbitant and unreasonable rents. It would infuse new life and hope into every interest of the town. As its construction would not cost the i city a dollar, it would seem w ise to grant i it such provisions as to encourage, and not retard its early completion. The enclo sure of the central avenues of Greene and Upper and 1 sever llrotd streets, would require an outlay of a few thousand dol lars. Is it not apparent that the enhanced value of taxable pro|H-rty on those streets alone, would much more than pay the in terest on the expenditure ? The construction of a levee around the ey isti another enterprise, now creating general interest. This last is a work of such magnitude, that the authorities may w 'll wait for some expression of public opinion in reference to it. We do not doubt that it would return to the city many fold, in the immediate enhancement of the value of real estate, and the guarantee it would afford of exemption from sickness as well as loss of property. We do not urge the immediate construc tion of this w ork; nor indeed would we counsel haste in any measure requiring i any material outlay. Uut as anew Mayor is about to be chosen, we deem it impor tant that one be selected from the pro gressive class of our citizens, who will give all jKissible encouragement to a w ise and liberal spirit of improvement. Wo suggest that the views of candidates for the Mayoralty ho well-ascertained in reference to the three' projects named : and as the tax payers of the city are entitled to a voice in the disposition of the public funds, we suggest, also, that a meeting be held to take action on the great question of public improvements in the city. That meeting w ill afford to the guardians of the treasury an index tothc wishes of the people: and might, if deemed advisable, order that a vote lx- taken on the question of the im provements named. In our judgment, the present season con story of A g ista. The large numbers who are locating, or seeking locations here, indicate the favor able estimate in which our city is h‘ ' abroad. If homes could be secured at rates at all in keeping with the incomes ol Un people, we do not doubt that our popula tion would double iu less than five years. If remorseless avarice is to guard every vacant lot, and extort the last farthing from every tenant, then wo may as well w rite “finished” on the outposts, and re lapse into the hopeless lethargy of “Sleepy Hollow.” .

August 14. fi a. in.— The Convention has not yet been organ ized, hut everything is working har moniously and the Convention promises to be a complete succe- —all the delegates s- in to be actuate-! by a sincere desire to harmoiibc any conflicting ideas or opinions and to sacrifice all personal feelings or prejudices to the y acral good \ allan digham, of Ohio, and Wood, of N -wiyirk. in letter- this morning, decline being dele gates. and this action on their part will, itis thought, promote harmony. Every one is iri good spirits and ch-.-erfuliy looking for ward to the accomplishment of great good by the action of the Convention. No permanent President has selected as yet. Winthrop. of Massachusetts, had ken selected as the permanent presiding officer, but owing to other enga - intents, he cannot be present. Doolittle, of Wi- on.-iu, appears to be the favorite, and will probably be elected President. llal. PHILADELPHIA, August 14, 3 P. M. — Judge Lyon, of Atlanta, has been chosen Chairman of the Georgia delegation. Eve- ry district in Georgia except the first is represented. General Gordon is expected I to-night, which will -make the Georgia Representation complete. It has ken agreed upon in caucus of the Georgia del [ egation that the Chairman should speak as instructed by the delegation. 1 tie same rule will probably be agreed upon by most of the Southern delegations. The rival delegations from Kentucky have been harmonized. No decision has ken made in regard to the conflicting delegations from Louisiana. The Convention met at 12 o clock. The delegations from Massachusetts and South Carolina entered the Convention together amidst the most vociferous cheering. After king seated the band composed of over fifty musicians played “Dixie” amidst the most intense enthusiasm and the heart}' cheering of over eight thousand persons. The band followed with the Star Spangled Banner. Governor Orr, of South (Jaro linacalled for cheers, which was responded to in the most wild and enthusiastic man ner, together with the waving of flags, hats and handkerchiefs. General Dix, of New York v w r as unani mously nominated temporary Chairman. He took his scat amidst loud and hearty cheers. Ho spoke for about one hour, re turning thanks for the honor conferred upon him. He considered the Conven tion of 1860 equal in importance and paral lelled only hy the Convention of 1787. lie declared that the war was waged only for the purpose of preserving the Constitution and the Union. —as a necessary result ofthe war, slavery is forever abolished and the Union becomes perpetual. The principle of secession is abandoned, and it is our duly to maintain the Union of our Fathers on the principles of the Constitution and make it the basis of restoration. He affirmed the right of the States to representation, but that right had ken de nied by a faction. Was this the object of those who fought gallantly for the Const i-j tut ion and the Union ? [ Enthusiastic cries ! of No! No !] Are not these States euti- | tied to representation? [Cries of Yes! Yes!] Congress has rejected the Union of the thirty-six States, and we arc met here as representatives of those States, to redress as far as possible this action. We have met for that purpose, and will do it. The Convention was opened with prayer. Senator Doolittle of Wisconsin moved | that the call for the Convention be read, j Gen. Steedman of Ohio offered a resolu tion that a Committee on Credentials be j appointed, and that all delegates loyal to the Constitution and the laws be admitted, Steedman was appointed Chairman of the Oommitee. A Committee on Organiza tion was appointed, when the Convention adjourned until 12 o’clock to-morrow. Philadelphia, August 15. —The Con vention met at 12 o'clock to-day. The ! wigwam was densely crowded. It is esti mated that at least !-"qHOO were inside the j enclosure, while many thousands remained t outside unable to obtain ingress. The ut i most enthusiasm was manifested by the j entire assemblage. Mr. Blair, from the Committee oa or- I ganization, reported the name of James R. Doolittle, of Wisconsin, as permanent Chair j man. Judge Lyon, of Atlanta, is the Vico j President for Georgia. The Preside it, on | taking the Chair, occupied about an hour j in one of the most eloquent and telling ; speeches l ever heard. He was mo* rap : turously applauded throughout his "Utiro I remarks, lie commenced by saying that : “Peace hath her victories no less renowned than War." This Convention, over which he had the honor to preside, foreshadowed the victory of peace. Peace had choc, and conic to stay. Massachusetts inaugurated j secession in ISI2. South Carolint, follow- j ing the lead ol' Massachusetts, nude seees- i siott nullification in 1 532, and tinil the first gun in lSfil. Massachusetts had shod the li st blood, but now both these States had tome up to the common altar of their country to bury past animosities and to end all strife, having the whole pciple of the United States as witnesses to he conflict. The people demanded that the next Con gress should admit all the Sties to their full and just rights and repjsentation : that a complete restoration ot the l mon should take place, and then thto would be tor our glorious Republic a big.and noble career —the highest and most ennobling among the nations of the earth General Steedman. from thejommittee on Credentials, made a report Such was | unanimously adopted.

The otter was read amidst much a pause and loud and protracted cheering. , telegram , was received from President Jenson say - ing that the people must be trtted and then the Union will be restored.

[associated press dispatches.] FROM PHILADELPHIA. The National Union Convention—lmmense Attendance—The Utmost Harmony Pre vails— North and Smith United—Con templated Convention of the Soldiers of Both Armies—Speech of Gov. Orr. of C. Philadelphia, August 14, a. m.—-The trains last night and this morning have ken heavily laden with delegates and vis itors to the great Convention, and the ho tel-are overflowing. The reception room of the Executive Committee has ken thronged with delegates registering their names/ Every State and Territory is rep resented. The harmonious feeding ofyes terday is still more marked to-day. Fer nando Wood, in a letter declining - to appear a.-i a delegate, lias made him many friends- Vallandigham will not go into the Con . volition. Ifo has written a letter to that effect. At a meeting of the Chairmen of the various delegations, held last evening, tlie following business was agreed upon: Each delegation is to report one of its num kr for Vice President; one for Secretary ; two for the Committee on Finance; two for the Committee to wait upon the Presi ‘ dent with a report of the proceedings of the Convention; one for the Committee on ■ Credentials; one for the Committee on | Organization : two for the Committee on | Resolutions and Address. There will k ' no discussion upon the resolutions. The interchange of opiuion among the ( delegates has exhibited a unanimity of sen timent upon this subject, which forbids discussion. The resolutions will substan tially embrace the propositions contained iri the call for the Convention, which is honestly and cordially approved by all the delegates here, both from the North and the South, whether Republican or Demo cratic. It is proposed that the Convention shall issue a general address to the country ; and in addition to the address of the Conven tion proper, that the Southern delegates should unite in a separate address, stating more in detail the position they occupy, the reasons by which they are influenced, and tlie results they hope to obtain. An informal meeting was held last evening of the soldiers of both the Northern and the Southern armies, in which a proposition was made, and received with favor, to call a Convention of the soldiers of the two armies at some central point, within a few weeks, where men who fought bravely against each other may meet in a spirit of conciliation, and determine to stand together in maintaining the Union and the Constitution. Gov. Orr, of South Carolina, spoke at the National Guard Hall last night. He said that the people of the South believed that they had a right to secede. The peo ple of the North did not agree with them, and the question was submitted to the arbitrament of arms. The Northern in terpretation of the Constitution has been firmly and legally established. The decis ! ion was pronounced upon the field of bat j tie, and the decree is incontrovertible. The | South has surrendered her principles, and j accepts the Northern interpretation. We | are willing to abide by it forever. By this ! war the people of the South to a very large j extent have been stripped of their pro perty. Their hanks and their credit are | both gone. In many localities tlie great ! stand point of civil law has been I lost. Thus the people of the South have i more need of a stable government than you have, and it is mad folly to charge that they will not fulfill their oaths to support this government. We claim that this is our government as well as yours, but that we may be equal, we mu st have represent tion in Congress. Montgomery Blair and others spoke, The Convention will organize in the Wigwam. SECOND DISPATCH. Philadelphia, August 14. —The Con vention assembled in the Wigwam to-day at 12-30 P.M. Mr. Randall opened the Convention by saying:—“Gentlemen Ihave to announce that the delegates from South Carolina and Massachusetts will now come arm in arm into this Convention. This announcement was greeted with great ap plause—the entire audience rising to their feet. At this moment Major Gen. Coueh of' Massachusetts and Governor Orr, of South Carolina, at the head of their re spective delegates marched arm in arm into the Convention, with banners flying and bands playing. Shout after shout spontaneous and general rent the air. Tears tilled the eyes of delegates and spec tators. John A. Dix was nominated as the tem porary chairman. In accepting the posi tion he said : “ I regard this as a Convention of no ordinary character; not only on account of the high social and political standing of the gentlemen who compose this Convention, but because it is a Convention of the peo ple of all the States of this Union, [ap plause,] and because we cannot doubt that if its proceedings are conducted with har mony and good judgment, that it will lead to the most important results. It may be truly said that no body of men have met on this continent under circumstances so momentous and so important, since the year 1787 —[applause]—the year when our ancestors assembled in this city to form a better Government for the States compos ing the old Confederation —a Government which lias been confirmed and made more enduring, as we trust, by the fearful trials and perils which it has encountered and overcome. [Applause.] Ten States have yet no representation in the legislation of j this country, and it is this wrong that we j have come here to protest against, and as | much as lies in our power to redress. When the President of United States de- I dared that the war had ceased, all the I States had the right of representation. : The exacting of new conditions is suhver | sivc of our national liberty, and dangerous jto the public peace. [Loud applause.] Is I this the Government our fathers fought to | establish, or which we have fought j to maintain ? lie trusted in the delibera j tions of the Convention, the idea would be i to change the present complexion of Con i gress, and bring it back to its original ; standard —one country —one flag—one un j ion of equal States. : After the appointment of Commit j tees on Credentials, resolutions and organ ization. the Convention adjourned until to | morrow at noon. Senator Doolittle has been nominated in ■ the Committee of Organization as perma nent Chairman. Vallandigham sent a letter to the Ohio j delegation to-day, declining to go into the ! Convention. It will be read before that j body to-morrow. National Union Com cation. Philadelphia, August 10. —The Con vention met at ten o'clock. The M igwam was crowded to its utmost capacity, fully one half of the audience are ladies. Sena tor Cowan from the Committee on resolu tions and address presented a declaration of principles which were unanimously adopted with niueh enthusiasm. It de clares that the war just closed has main tained the authority of the Constitution, and has preserved the Union with the equal rights, dignity and authority of all the States perfect and unimpaired. That representation in Congress and the Electoral College is a right abiding in and a duty imposed upon every State, and that neither Congress or the General Gov ernment have authority or power to deny the richt to any State—that Congress has no power over the elective franchise but that that right belongs exclusively to each —that no State lias the right to w.tL draw from the Union, that in all the amendments to the Constitution ail btates have an equal right to vote. That slavery abolished aud forever prohibited, inat the National debt is forever sacred and nviolable. an 1 the Confederate debt in\ ami. recognizing the services of the Federal sol diers aul sailors, and the debt due by the nation to them and to their widow? au l or phans. Endorsing President Johnson for his steadfast devotion to the Constitution and the laws, and to the interests of the country. The address was prepared by Raymond of New York, and was read by that gentleman, and then unanimously adopted. The National Executive and Financial Committees were then announced. Senator Doolittle said in his opening ad -1 dress vesterday that this Convention was one of the greatest events of our day.lt was the first National Convention held in six years, and in the interim there had ken blood, agony and tears. Our broth -1 ers had fallen, and our resources ken wasted on a thousand battle-fields, but thank God, the assurances here tell us that peace has come at last. If the people of the whole country could ee the fraternal feeling here, there would be no struggle at the polls this fall. (Great applause.) But i as the whole people cannot be- here to wit . ness what is transpiring, the greater I work rests upon us. From this time until ! the election of the next Congress, we should j k untiring in our exertions to age tliat the j next Congress, if this one shall continue to refuse this sacred right of represenut- I tion to equal States, shall recognize them. [Applause.] When that Is done, the Union is restored, and when the Inion is restored we shall be prepared to enter upon a higher and nobler career among the nations ofthe ear.h than has ever yet been occu pied by any government upon which the sun of heaven has shone. [Applause. ] In the permanent organization of the Convention, J. IL Doolittle is President. Among the Vice Presidents arc: J. AA . Brockenborough, of. Virginia, John A. Gilmer of North Carolina, Judge Wardlaw of South Carolina, Richard S. Lyons of Georgia, Judge Randall of Florida, Cuth bert Bullitt of Louisiana, J. M. Tibktts, of Arkansas, D. J.

M.— The Convention adopted a declaration of principles, and adjourned sine die. There will be an address issued to tlie people of the United States. Delegates leaving for Home—Press Ban quet. Philadelphia, August 17.— Many of the delegates to the Convention left for home last evening, the balance will leave to-day. The proceedings throughout were most harmonious, not a single event to mar the good feeling—the address hut not the resolutions—was written hy Henry J. Raymond. It is merely the resolutions elaborated. During its reading for a time, almost breathless silence prevailed. The President requested the delegates and spectators to manifest no sign of approval or to make other demonstrations until the reading was completed. This request secured quiet until the speaker arrived at the following paragraph. “And the tea millions of Americans wlio live in the South would be unworthy citi zens of a free Commonwealth —degenerate sons of a heroic ancestry—unfit even to be come guardians of the rights and principles bequeathed to us by the fathers and found ers of the Republic, if they could accept, with uncomplaining submission, the hu miliations thus sought to be imposed upon them.” The entire audience then broke forth in an unrestrained burst of applause, which lasted for several minutes. At the conclu sion of this enthusiasm, a demand wns made that the paragraph quoted should be read over again, which was assented to, | and again the applause broke forth with redoubled effect. The Press Club gave a splendid banquet to the members of the press last night, at which Radicals and Southerners frater nized, and high hilarity prevailed. FROM WASHINGTON. The President on tUc Philadelphia Con vention. Washington, August 18. —The I resi dent, in an interview with the New Hamp shire delegation in reference to the Con vention and his future policy, said : “We have now a policy and principles recog- j nized and laid down by the most intelli gent, able and patriotic body of men con- ! vened since tlie days of the Declaration of ; Independence —a recognition of this policy j and principles will be required ol those i who receive office and patronage from the j Government. It was a duly the adfi-iiis tration owed itself that strength and power should be given to those who maintain the principles declared by that great body of national men who met this week in Con vention at Philadelphia, Speech of President Johnson—The Phila delphia Convention. Washington, August 18. —-There was a great crowd to-day to hear the President in response to Reverdy Johnson, who presented- the official proceedings of the Philadelphia Convention. He said, re ferring with feeling to the scene represent ed of South Carolina and Massachusetts entering the Convention together. He was overcome and could not but conclude that an overruling Providence Mas direct ing us aright. He said our brave men have performed their duties. in the field, and have won laurels imperishable j but turning to General Grant, he continued : but there are greater and more important duties to perform, and while we have had their co-operation in the field, M’e now need their efforts to perpetuate peace. (Applause.) The Executive Department had tried m ! “pour oil” on the wounds and restore the Union, but it bad not entirely succeeded. We have seen, he said, in one department of the Government every effort to prevent the restoration of peace and harmony in : the Union. . We have seen hanging on the verge oi Government, as it were, a body called or which assumed to he _ the Congress of the : United States, while in fact it is a Congress | of only apart of the States. We have seen this Congress assume and pretend to be f‘T the Union, when its every step and act tended to perpetuate disunion, and makes a disruption of States inevitable. Instead of promoting reconciliation and harmony, its legislation has partaken of the character of penalties, retaliation and ; revenge. This has been the course and the j policy = of one portion of your Government. The humble individual who is now ad dressing you, stands the representative of another department of the Government. The manner in which he was called upon to occupy that position, I shall not allud- 5 to on this occasion. Sufiice it to say tha, he is here under the Constitution of the country, and being here by virtue of its provisions, he takes his stand upon that charter of our liberties, as the great ram part of civil and religious liberty. L Prolong ed cheering. ] Having been taught in mv early life to hold it sacred, and having practiced upon it during my whole public career. I shall ever continue to reverence the constitution of my fathers, and make it my guide. [Hearty applause.] The President proceeded, and denied the charuc that he hud ever been tyrannical, or a despot, but Wd such charges were simply intended to deceive and delude the public mind into the belief that there is someone in power who is usurping and trampling upon the rights of the constitu tion.* It ia done by those who make such charges for the purpose of covering their own acts. [“That’s so. .am] applause.] I have felt it my duty in vindication ot principle and of theeonstitntion of my coun try to call the attention of my countrymen to" these proceedings. Where we come to examine who has been playing the tyrant,by whom do we find despotism exercised ? As to myself, the elements of my nature, the pursuits of my ha-cue. cither in mv feelings or in my praeticc-s,bppressive. mv "nature on the contrary, is rather ; defensive in its character. But I will sac rim having taken my stand upon the broad principles of liberty ana the Consti tution. there is not power et. on earth to drive me from it. (Loud and prolong ing applause.) Having placed myself j upon that broad platform, I have not been awed or dismayed, or intimidated by either : threats or encroachments, but have stood. : there it. conjunction with patriotic spirits. 1 sounding the tocs>:i ot alarm when I deem j ed the citadel of liberty in danger. ■: Great ! applause, t I said on a previous occasion, i ana repeat now that all that was necessary in this great v.iu.gle again s-Vyranny and despotism was that the struggle should i be sufficiently audible for the American people tc hear and properly understand. They did hear and looking on they see who" the contestants were, and what the struggle was about, and., have determined that they would settle this question on the side of the constitution and of principle, i I proclaim here to-day. as I have ! on previous occasions, that my faith is in j the great mass of the people. In the dark i est hour of this struggle, when the clouds , seemed to be most lowering, my faith in stead of giving way. loomed up through the cloud beyond which I saw that all would k well in the end —my countrymen, we all know that tyranny and despotism in the language of Thomas Jefferson, can be exercised and exerted more effectually by the many than by the one. We have seen a Congress gradually cnroach, step by stop, and violate day after day, and month after month, constitutional rights and the fundamental principles of the Government. We have seen aCongress that seemed to for ce: that there was a limit to the sphere and scope of legislation. We have seen a Con gress in a minority, assume to exercise power which, if allowed to be eanieu out. would result in despotism, or anarchy itself. This is truth, and because others, as well as myself, have seen proper to appeal to the patriotism and republican feeling of the country, we have been denounced in sever est- terms. Slander upon slander, vitupe ration upon vituperation of the most vil lainous character, has made its way through the press. What, gentlemen, has ken vour and my sin? AA hat has been the cause of our offending? I will tell you: Darina to stand by the Constitution of our fathers!! I consider the proceedings of this Convention, sirs, as pore important than those of any Convention that ever as sembled in the L nited States. [Great ap plause.] When I look with my mind’s-eye upon that collection of citizens . coming together voluntarily and sitting in counsel, with ideas, with principles, and views commen surate with all the States, and eo-extensive with the whole people, and contrast it with the collection of persons who are trying to i destroy the country, I regard it as more important than any convention that has ! sat. at least, since 1787. (Renewed apj plause.) I think I may also say that the declara tions that were there made are equal to tlie Declaration of Independence itself, and I here to-day pronounce them a second Declaration of Independence. (Cries of “glorious.' and a most enthusiastic and prolonged applause.) Your address and declarations are nothing more nor less than reaffirmation of the Constitution of the United States. ; Yes, I will go farther, and say that the ■ declarations you have made, that the prim 1 ciplesyou have enunciated in your address, are a second proclamation of emancipation to the people of the United States. [Re newed applause.] Form proclaiming and re proclaiming these great truths you have laid down a Constitutional poktfonn, upon which all can make common cause, and stand united together for the restoration : of the States, and the preservation of the ■ Government, without reference to party. The question only is, the salvation of tfte | country; for our country rises above all party consideration or influence. . How many are there in the 1 nited States that now require to be free? They have the shackles upon their limbs, and arc bound as rigidly as though they were in fact in slavery. I repeat then, that your declaration is the second proclamation of j emancipation to the people of the United Suites, and offers a common ground upon which all patriots can stand. (Applause.) Air. Chairman, and gentlemen, let me in this connnection ask what have I to gain more than the advancement of the public welfare. lam as much opposed to the in dulgence of egotism as any one, but here in a conveisational manner, while formally receiving the proceedings of this Conven tion, I may be permitted again to ask what have Ito gain by consulting human am bition more than I have gained, except in one thing ? My race is nearly run— I have been placed in the high office which I occupy under the constitution of the country, and may say that I have | held from the lowest to the highest, al most every position to which a man may attain in our government. And surely, gentlemen, this should be enough to gratify a reasonable ambition. If I wanted authority, or if I Mushed to perpetuate my own power, how easy it would have been to hold and wield that which was placed in my hands by the measure called the Freedmen’s Bureau Bill? (Laughter and applause.) With an army which it placed at my discretion, I could have remained at the Capital of the nation, and with ' fifty or sixty million of appropriation at my disposal; with the machinery to be worked by my satraps and dependents in every town and village ; and then with the Civil Rights Bill following as an auxiliary. (Laughter.) In connection with all the other appliances of the Gov ernment, I could have proclaimed myself Dictator. But, gentlemen my pride, and my am bition have been to occupy that position which retainsall power in th aands ofthe perple. It is upon that I have always re lied. It is upon that I rely now, and I ex- I pect that neither the taunts nor jeers of Congress, nor of a subsidized calumniating ; press, can drive me from my purpose.— j (Great applause.) I acknowledge no superior except my God —the author of. my exist- ! once, and the people of the United States. (Prolonged and enthusiastic cheering.) j For the one, I try to obev all his commands, as best T can, compatible with my poor humanity; for the other in a political and ; a representative setise, the high behests of the people have always been respected and obeyed by me. (Applause.). Air. Chairman, 1 have said more than I had intended to say. For the kind allu sion to n.yself contained in your address, and in the resolutions adopted by the Con vention, let mo remark, that in this crisis, and at the present- period of my public life, I Hold above all price, and shall ever recur with feelings of profound gratification to . the last resolution containing the endorse- i ment of a Convention emanating spontane ously from the great jntjss of the people. I trust and hope that my future action may be such that you and the Convention you represent, may not regret the assur ; ance of confidence you have expressed. Before separating, my friends, one and ! all, please accept- my sincere thanks for the i kind manifestations of regard and respect you have exhibited on this occasion. I repeat, that I shall always continue. to bo guided by a conscientious conviction of duty, and that always gives one courage, under the constitution which I have made my guide. | At Cue conclusion of the President's serenade three enthusiastic cheers were ! given for Andrew Johnson, and three more tor General Grant. The President then took a position near the door, opening into ! the hall, with General Grant by his side, where, as the gentlemen of the Committee ' and members of the Convention passed | out, he grasped each by tlie baud and had a smile or a cheering word for all, after which they passed on to take Genejal i Grant by the hand. Washington, August 17.—1 tis prob able that all the members of the Cabinet, except Harlan and Stanton, aud General Grant and Admiral Farragut, will accom pany the President on the trip to Chicago. _lt is reported on good authority that General Howard, commissioner of the Freedmen’s Bureau, intends issuing an order within a few days, suspending the distribution of government rations to the destitute of the South, thus throwing the burden of supporting the indegeut of both races upon the local authorities. The President has appointed Robert E. Peterson, of Pennsylvania, and Charles B. Norton, of New York, l "nited States Com i missioners to the Paris Exhibition. Col. R R, Botling has been appointed Collector of Customs at Louisville. Ky., vice D. W. Gallaher, removed. Execution of a Murderer —More about tne Finnegans. New York, August 17.— Bernard F.

Another Finnegan Movement—Cholera. New York, August 17. —A special from Ottawa Canada, says the Canadians are preparing for another Fenian invasion.

[lt should he borne in *mind that our quotations rejtresent wholesale prices. Small bills, to Planters and others, are filled at a shade higher rates.] REMARKS. —There has been rather less than the usual animation in the market (luring the week, owing, in some degree, perhaps, to the dull and declining tone of cotton daring most of t._<_ week. The reports from the interior, of the alarming extent of the drought have affect ed the demand for provisions, consumers buying very sparingly. While there is no present want of rain in the immediate vi cinity, and cotton is doing well, the upland corn was almost entirely ruined by the July- drought. In all other portions of the State the crops are now suffering to an alarming extent. In Middle and Upper Georgia the corn crop is almost a complete failure, and great distress is anticipated. Colton is falling and opening prematurely, and will not .""ike, as a general thing, half an average yield to the area planted. Telegraphic communication by the At lantic Cable has proved a perfect success, and wc are in daily receipt of intellig' ■se from all parts of Europe. We have reports of the Liverpool market to the 16th, when cotton advanced id., with sales of 20,000 bales, and middling uplands were quoted at 14d. This daily communication will, it is believed, render the market more uni form, and while it affords less scope for speculative interests, will be advantageous to holders. Our cotton factors are now issuing their circulars, preparatory to the fall trade. Some changes have been made in the old firms, and a number of new houses have been opened. Our planting friends will find the familiar names of many who were identified with the trade in other days, ready to renew business relations with them, and the new houses are composed of men of reliable business antecedents. The want of banking facilities is severely felt in this department of trade, but as the season opens an adequate supply of foreign capital will, doubtless, be available, and our market will maintain its well-earned char acter for fair and liberal dealing. FINANCIAL.—The prosper" if a col lision between France and Prussia caused an advance in gold in New York during the early part of the week, and better prices were obtained here. On yesterday the market opened at 150, but the report of a declire in New York later in the day, caused a reaction here, and it could be bought at 148@149. Georgia and Central Railroad Bonds sold at p; -and interest, and Montgomery and West . oint Railroad Bonds at 921. A demand for Georgia Rail road Stock at 82; New York exchange, par to i premium. The reduction in the rate of interest by the Bank of England from 10 to 8 pi cent., with a suggestion of a still further conces sion, shows a return of public confidence which, it is believed, will cause the price of cotton to be maintained, and tend to a further decline in gold on this side.

Holders have struggled very hard against cor- , cessions lower than 30 cefofo, but mere were ; no buyers at that rate, and all parties were | waiting the run of events. It is proper to , say that quotations include the taxes, ; : which are paid by the buyer, and >here | the taxes have beer, paid by the seller, the amount is added to the price. The ad j vance in Liverpool reported on yesterday, and the abandonment by Napoleon of his i arbitrary demand on Prussia, have created a better fooling, and sales wore made at 28 @3O cents. We now quote: Low Middling 28a... Strict Middling 29a... Good Middling There is little demand for the lower grades. | FI-QUR. —Tho market is overstocked with Western flour of low grade, and it can be bought at from 88 to 12. Good Western superfine is held at §l3 50 to 14, and is very dull; extra, §l4; fatally, *ls© 16. Qur city anils are now actively at work, and are making flour of excellent ' quality. The difficulty in obtaining wheat : has heretofore confined their business chiefly to the local trade; but the Excelsior Mill has been making large shipments to i Savannah and Charleston dumag the week, i and offers to duplicate Baltimore rates. All the city mills quote as follows: Super j fine, §l4; extra, §ls; family, §l6. WHEAT.—The supply is fully equal to | the demand, and the tendency is to lower rates. We quote §2 5Q©2 75 for red, and §2 75©3 for white. Engagements have ; been made for large quantities at lower fig- I ures.
