u SOUTH CAROLINA. Meeting of the Constitutional Convention. Organization at Once Effected and the Members at Work. Judge David L. Wardlaw, of Abbe- ville, Elected President, Our Columbia Correspondence. Couvuara, 8. C., Sept. 13, 1865. ‘THR CONVENTION AND ITS COMPLEXION. ‘The delegates to the convention which has in its hands ‘the restoration of South Carolina to the Union assembled jw this city this morning and have already effected an organization, The election of these delegates took place Jast Monday in the various parts of the State, and avery respectable body of men—respectable in size and appear- ance—has been gathered togethor. As to their condition ao other respects, you must wait for time to develop. Their antecedents are. not good; they were all bona fide, bitter and original secessionists and rebels. The thorough- ness with which these men embraced the crime of seces- sion, to whose deformities thirty years familiarity had blinded them, is the only virtue they have as yet devel- oped. But this is a wonderful age of transfor- mations, and this convention may unexpectedly develop something akin to patriotism. If they have none of this, you may rest assured that they have the bump of selfishness thoroughly developed, and in Vike proportion algo the bump of caution, They are go- ing to do that whieh will benefit themselves, individ- ually and collectively; and as they have enough sense Jeft to see and enough honesty and candor to acknowl- ‘edge that slavery is dead and only requires decent burial 1 afflict us no more, you may safely conclude that they ‘will rapidly follow the example of Mississippi and reorgan- aze with an altered constitution recognizing that slavery ie dead. Whether they will take the other absolntely meceseary step in addition and prohibit slavery hence- forth and forever depends on circumstances and the Presidential pressure. ‘THE MEMBERS OF THE CONVENTION. ‘Some of the members of the convention sit without ‘any certainty that they are eligible. Numbers of them Ihave never been pardoned. Wade Hampton, who used to be a rebel lieutenant general, is a prominent member. Jaines Connor, who lost a leg in the same service as brigadier general, is also a delegate from the Charleston district. Alfred Huger, the old post. master of South Carolina, was the head of a family all of whom indulged to excess in treason. | Charles H. Simonton was Colone! or Lieutenant Colonel of the Twenty-tifth South Carolina (Eutaw) rebel regiment, and fought in defence of Charieston. In short, it may be said, without exaggeration, that the conven- tion represents the rebel army. But you will best know them by their works of the future and not the past. TH ONGANIZATION. The convention met in the Baptist church of this city, ‘You will remember that Sherman's troops left the capital 4m a condition not proper for habitation. The organiza- tion was affected by the selection of David L. Wardlaw, of Abbeville district, as President pro fem. Governor Perry was then notified of the organization of the con- vention. On the receipt of his reply, stating that he would send in a communication to the convention on ‘Thursday, the convention adjourned, to meet at noon to- morrow. ‘TER PRESIDENT OF THE CONVENTION. Mr. Wardlaw has never been known in national poli- tice, Dut has been a prominent Stato politic since 1888. " In 1837 he was eiected to the SI ture asa momber ef the House of Representatives, and on the avemblage of the Legislature he was elected Bpeaker, and retained the position until 1841. In this yeur he was elected a Judge of the Court of General-Ses- ‘sions and Common Pleas, and has been on the bench con- tinuously up to the present time. He is looked upon a8 # Ove lawyer and a splendid presiding officer.

OUR NEW ORLEANS CORRESPONDENCE. New Orzeans, La, Sept. 7, 1865, SRIRMIGH UETWEEN THK IMPERIAUSTS AND UERRALS AT MONTEREY. News has reached this city that a skirmish recently occurred between the imperialists and liberals near Monterey, resulting in the repulse of the former. It appears that a wagon train, guarded by imperial sol- diers, left Monterey for Matamoros, when an attack was made by Escobedo’s scouts, who skirmished until the main body came up, when the imperialists fled back to Monterey, leaving their wagon train and several killed and wounded behind. A rebel colonel is said to have Deen among the killed. Further report states that a courier from the imperial force managed to reach Matamoros, when reinforcements were sent out; but these met Cortina’s band, who kept them at bay nearly six hours, and finally compelled the imperialists to return to Matamoros, The wagon train is said to have contained $250,000 in specie. UNITED STATES GENKRALS PRESENT AT A BALL TO THR MINIS- TER OF INT“RNAL IMPROVEMENTS OF THE MEXICAN KMPIRE. The Matamoros Ranchero of August 26 has the follow- ing account of the ball to the Mexican Minister at Mata- moros:— ‘The grand ball given at the new theatre, on the even- img of the 24th, in honor of Senor Don Luis Robles, Min- ister of Internal Improvementa, was truly a grand affalr. It came up to the high expectation which the public had entertained, in view of the leading names in society connected with {ts management, and was a worthy tribute to the distinguished gentleman in whose honor it ‘was given. The dome was festooned with the tri-colors of Mexico, and a mammoth flower basket swung in place of the central chandeher, In short, the proverbial good taste of Mexico in the arrangement of ornaments was 80 well displayed that noone could suggest an improve- ment. Th® attendance was very large and select, con- stituted of the elite of both cities, and combining, to an extent rarely seen, “the beauty and the chivalry” of Doth nations. (And we may add, the wit also, the press being repr: mang Among the distinguished persons who participated in the festivities we noticed Minister Robles, to whom the ball was given; General Portilla, General Fomanio; General Olvera, Colonel Guerrero, Mayor Apresa, and many others distinguished for their rank and position in society. From the other side of the river General Stecle, General Smith and a numerous at- tendance of other United States officers, all of whom en- tered into the amusements with zest nnd animation. There was a numerous attendance of the fair and beauti- ful, whose radiant charms softened the splendor of the scene. ‘The variety and richness of the ladies’ costumes were only exc*led by the beauty which those costumes arrayed and the grace with which they were disposed. RUMORED MURDER OF THE REBEL GENERAL PARSONS AND oTERRS. The Ranchero of the 29th ult. has also the following:— It is reported that four Confederate Americans were barbarously murdered a few days ago by the robbers on the road trom Monterey to this city. From the last ac- counts the party consisted, of a. family travelling in’ an ambulance, with a white flag displayed. Rutaor has it that the namo of the gentleman was Parson—some say General Parsons of Missouri, and others that it was Colonel Parsons of Texas. We had not previously heard of either of these gentlemen being in Mexice. The party who committed the murder are said to be headed by one Dario Garza, and is part of the forces commanded by Es- cobedo, if it be right to speak of such bands as a com- mand. ‘The First Texas cavalry has been ordered to San Anto io to report to General Merritt for duty, Our Brownsville Correspondence.

HEB IDEAS AND APPBARANCE, ETC. A lecture of a novel kind was given to the public last evening by Mrs. Ella Hobart, no less @ personage than a female army chaplain. The room in which the fair lec- turer held forth was crowded long before the time at which the lecture was advertised to commence, Mrs. Hobart was introduced by a rather prosy gentlemap, who announced @ series of lectures and discussions which were to come off at various and sundry times and places. She is a tall, sharp-featured lady, in whom a strong mind is clearly indicated, She was dressed ina dark silk dress anda black silk basque, which showed her ample form and commanding person to considerable advantage. Though she is no longer of the age that ts termed interest- ing, her charms of attraction still gleam through her time and experience, The audience was largely composed of ladies, many of whom were evidently like the lecturer, of a strong-minded disposition. The masculine portion of the audience was as varied as it was miscellaneously composed, There were men with long white beards, others with faces shaved very smooth. There were others who wore white hats or white coats, and one who had both a white hat and a white coat. After surveying her audience with the most perfect self-possession, the lady leoturer commenced tn a clear and even masculine tone of voice to open her subject to her audience. She the whole of the nineteenth Pealm, commencing with the words ‘The heavens declare the glory of God, and the firmament showeth his handi- work,” &c. She ee, Logie a its consequences, persecution an yrance ; but the chapter taken for the text seomed to have little bearing on the theme of the discourse, which was of so varied and rambling a nature that it was as difficult to decide what it was as it would be to a 2 in what direction the Pa- munkey river runs. The lady perhaps has had a sail on that river. Tt was plain, er, that she was in favor of new ideas, She would have men ask whether each new idea is worth anything, and not whether it is in accordance with the Bible. 8 expects more changes: in the world’s ideas in the next ten years than there were in the last fifty. She said our ideas will be greatly changed on many subjects in the next ten years; tnat we scarcely know our powers of mind yet; that tno reason of this 1s because we have been looking for some great mythical character, some great statuary called God, instead of looking at and examining ourselve where we will see with our spiritual percep- tion the Author of our being. When we discover what we really are capable of advancing, progressing and im- proving, wo will then seo and praise the God who has formed us. We can never do this as long as we con- sider ourselves poor, miserable worms of the earth. If she would organize ‘a system of religion it would be un- like any others; it would be that of no religious sect; but simply “do right.” When in the army, by y preaching io this way, she was able to reach soldiers of all denomi- nation. Denominations make no difference; pro- fessions of religion are only cloaks in ‘many instances. The rough and ignorant, s0-called, often possess more nobility than ‘the more distingnishea members of society. She related the instance of an illiterate soldier boy, seventeen years old, writng a beautiful poem, which 'he dedicated to her while she was with the army. Sho ho) that the time is near when men’s minds will be the battle fields of the world, and when words and ideas will take the place of guns and spears. She was not one of those who be- Neved in the lake of fire and brimstone. Religion is not theology, but life; it is the knowledge of our own nature, She did not want any ism t> prevail, but to see the whole human family ascending gradually in the scale, so that diseases will be almost unknown and knowledge un- limited. She would hke to see man attain such a con- dition that he would not violate the laws of nature. It is then wo will want no locks, no keys, no bolta, no bars. She believed that the millennium is coming, and that it 18 that in which man can subdue his jimal nature and passions, and shall entrant He down as the lion and the lamb. ‘This is the millennium; it must come to indi- viduals first, for the world is made up of individuals. After a very fluent and gesticulous peroration the lady retired. A collection was then taken up, after which the lady again arose, and announced that though she was chap- ta regiment for nine months she never re- eeived pay, because the War ment refused to con- firm the appointment, because that would be ostablish- ing a precedent whereby women would rank with offi- cers, “and because 1 should then have rauked as a cap- tain.” (Laughter.) She added that she micht have given the audience an account of her experience in the army, but she tkought that probably they had heard enovgh about that, and that the subject she chose she hoped was more interesting. ‘The audience then dispersed without further cere- mony. Catholic Demonstration in yw Jerscy. LAYING OF A CORNER STONE BY BISHOP DAYLEY— PROCESSION, DISCOURSE, BTC. ‘The laying ef tho corner etone of a new Catholic church in Jersey City vesterday was the occasion of a vory imposing demonstration, consisting of a parale throngh the principal streets by the religious and b- nevolent Irish and Gorman societies of the:plare; and of the ceremonies at the church, conducted by the Right Rov.

QUR NEW ORLEANS CORRESPONDEN( New Oxteans, La., Sept. 7, 1865. 1083 OF THE STEAMSHIP SHOOTING STAR, On the 15th ult. the steamship Shooting Star, Captain McKeige, left this city for Galveston, Texas. On the 17th she grounded on Vine Island, nineteen miles from Tim- balier lighthouse. When she struck the steamer was running nine knots an hour. She filled with water very rapidly. After remaining by the vessel three days, Captain McKeige started for Cailion Island, nine miles distant. Here he procured men and boats; but, upon reaching the steamer, discovered that her deck load had vanished and that she was going to pieces. No lives were lost. The cargo of the Shooting Star consisted of five hun- dred sacks of corn, fifty-seven thousand feet of lumber, ono hundred and fifty barrels of lime, fifty-eight bales of hay, one hundred and fifty-four packages of merchan- dise, twenty-five barrels and two kegs of whiskey, soventy-nine thousand shingles and seventeen pieces of marble. ACCIDENT TO THE STRAMBHIP HERMAN LIVINGSTON. On the night of the 25th ult., while the steamship Herman Livingston was on her way to this city from New York, she struck on the Moselle shoals, Signal guns were fired by order of Captain Baker, anda large portion of her cargo was thrown overboard before assistance arrived in the shape of wreckers, who agreed to get the ship off for the sum of $30,000, After working forty-tour hours the steamer floated off, when Captain Baker, being satisfied that there was no danger in resum- ing the voyage, started for this cits prtvere he arrived with his vessel on Sunday last. The Herman Livingston is apparently uninjured. ngers speak well of Captain Baker and bis officers for their skill and coolness under the trying circumstances by which they were sur- rounded.

THR TRUP STORY OF THM FORSYTH DIFFICULTIES, The New Orleans Times bas the following account of the difficulties at Mobile between Colonel Charles For of tho rebel army, and a young Cuban named De Vega, who was on General Maury’s staff:— ‘The recent unfortunate affair between Colonel Fé hb and Captain De Vega, at Mobilo, has led to a rood deal of fashionable } rere Colonel Forsyth is the son of a worthy and distinguished citizen of Mobile. Young and gallant, be a year or two since wooed and won the bello of Al ‘taking to his home and heart the fairest woman of the land. In due time he was called away to the wars, and his fair wife consoled herself as best she could under the circumstances, Eventually there a) peared abovo the horizon of fashionable gociety at Mo- bile a gay young Cuban—handsome, dashing, brilliant, rich. Never was bero of romance moro exquisite in taste or polished In manners, Necd we say that this ne exquisite was Captain DeV.? Among the ladies V. created an immediate sensation. Ho was the ‘‘very genteol fellow’ tiey had. beon so long sighing about, and, as he was a toldior of fortune and occupied an hon- orary position on Geueral Maury’s staff, he was at once voted an Admirab.e Crichton in accomplishments and a Julius Cover in bravery. The handsome young cavalier was not long in discovering who the fairest woman in Mobile was, and bo soon became as much fascinated by her lovelincss as Thomas . eymour was by Cotharine Parr in the wicked days of Henry VIII. With plenty of Span- ish gold in his pocket, a gay appearance, good address and tine horses, the gallant Cuban fairly took young Mo- bile by storm. Even Ciaude Melnotte was not more [ree wih the money furnished him by his tempiers than he with the revenucs of a sugar estate iw the ‘over faithful isle.

The inspectors of the different Precincts shall, as soon as possible after the election, count the votes and make and sign a certificate of the re- sult of the election at said preciuct, and one of them, tobe doterminod by lot, if not otherwise agreed upon, shall con- vey and deliver, without unnecessary delay, the said certi- ficate, the poll book and ballots to the Judge of Probate of the county or to the Clerk of the Circuit Court, which- ever of them may have appointed said inspectors. The judge or clerk receiving said certificates, pol! books and ballots shall, thereupon, without unnecessary delay, call to his assistance two respectable inhabitants, having the qualification of voters, and shall publicly count the votes and compare with the poll books. They shall make and sign certificates of the result of the election in their county, and furnish to each person elected one of said certificates. The judge or clerk shall also transmit by mail, prepaying the postage, properly enveloped and ad- dressed to the Provisional ernor, at Tallahassee, one of said certificates, together with the ballots and poll books of the several precincts, or he shall convey the eaid certificate, poll books and ballots, properly enveloped and addressed as aforesaid, to the nearest military and deliver the same to the commander to be forward to this office. Tho counties in which there is neither a qualified Judge of Probate nor a qualified Clerk of the Circuit Court, or in whicn they may neglect or refuse to act, the qualified voters are hereby authorized to assemble at the county site, and in Dade county, at Indian Key, and elect the judges of clection, who shall have taken the amnesty ‘oath, and who shall hold the election, count the votes, and give to the person elected a certificate of his election. One of them, to be agreed ou or determined by lot, shall also send by mail, or convey to the nearest military as aforesaid, a duplicate certificate of the election and the poll books and ballots, to be forwarded to this office ag aforeeaid. No person shall act as an inspector or judge of the elec- tion who shall not have previously taken the amnesty oath, and no other oath shall be exacted of said judges or inspectors, but their personal honor will be considered as nieceed for the faithful and honest performance of their ut Sizth—The commander of the milit department of the State hag, in the absence of mail facilities, gener- ously ordered’ the officers and soldiers under his com- mand to aid and assist in the distribution of the poll books and this proclamation, and in receiving the re- turns of the election and forwarding them to this office. Seventh—That the delegates who shall be elected as aforesaid shall assemble in convention, at the city of Tallahassee, at twelve o'clock, on Wednesday, the 25th day of October, A. D. 1865, and elect a President and other necessary officers, and proceed to the discharge of their duties. “The convention will be the judge of the elovtion of their respe: tive members. ‘The commander of the military department of the State has issued a general order directing that a United States transport steamer shall leave Key West on Wednesday, the 18th of October, and touch at Tampa, Monatee and Cedar Keys on her way to St. Marks; and that another steamer shall leave Pensacola on Saturday, the 2lst, bound for the same port, touching at Apalachicola; and another shall leave Enterprise, on the St. Johns river, on Friday, the 20th, bound to Jacksonville, tou hing at the various points on the river; end another shail lee ve Fernandina on Friday, the 20th, and St. Avgustine on Saturday, the 21st, bound to Jacksonville, These steamers will convey the delegates el:cted free of charge, except for their lodcing and meals, Kighth—A constitution, republican in form, having becn made, altered or amended, and adapted to the new order of things, the convention will provide, by a sched- ule, for the eloction of a Governor and G neral Assem- and for the reorganization of a permanent State gov- ertiment. Ninth—By the operations and results of the war slavery has ceaged to oxist in this State. It cannot be Yevived. Every voter for delegates to the convention, in taking the amnesty oath, takes a solemn oath to support the freedom of the former slave. The freedom intended is the full, ample and complete freedom of «citizen of the United States. This does not negessarily include the privilege of voting; but it does inchide the idea of full constitutional guarantees of future possession and quiet enjoyment. The question of his voting is an open ques- tion—a proper subject for discussion—and is to b> de- cided as a question of sound policy by the convention to be called. Ten’h—Upon the establishment of a republican form of State government. under a constitution which guaran- tees and secures liberty to all the inhabitants alike, with- out distinetion of color, there will no longer exist ay imp diment in the way of restoring the State to its proper constitutional relations to the government of the United States, whereby ita people will be entitled to protection by the United States against, inyasion, insurrection aud domestic violence.
