Douglass, B @ spesoh, told of the circumstance, and gave & ‘ouiching picture of an act of kind. ness for which he was indebted to the lady im question when be was her stave. At the meeting of the Northern branch of the Convention Theodore Tilton was in the chair, Governor Curtin having retired. Senator Wilson delivered a speeoh on the Presidential tour in his.style of coarse abuse, and was followed by General Ben Butler, who fought one or two of his battles over again, and said that he would rather see a Diack man by his side in the Union ranks holding his musket thana lank white one pointing it from the rebel side, If it were in the power of Oongress, or the army, the Southern loyalists should have legislation and protection. In the evening a mass meeting of the representatives of both sections was hold, and speeches were delivered by General Walbridge, Senators Chandler, Wilson, Mr. Schenck and others. The New York Republican State Convention met at Syracuse yesterday, and Goneral Van Wyck was ap pointed temporary Chairman. On taking the chair he delivered quite a lengthy address on the political ques- tions of the day. Mr. Sinclair Tousey was appoint- ed temporary Secrotary. Committees on . address and resolutions and om permanent organization were then appointed, and the Convention took a receas. At half-past three it again assembled, and the Committee on Organization reported Lyman Tremain as President, and a long list of Vice Presidents, Mr, Tremain made @ long speech, in which he said that if the South undertook to resist the laws of Congress it would be annihilated by the veterans of the past war marching down South and punishing trea- son with the bayonet. A lengthy series of resolutions was presented, and Governor Fenton was renom nated for, his present position. General Woodford was nomi- nated for Lioutenant Governor, Stephen G. Hoyt for Canal Commissioner, and General Hammond for Inspec- tor of State Prisons, The steamship Eagle, Captain Green, from Havana September 1, arrived at this port yesterday afternoon. Her news is not of much importance, being only one day later than that by the Manhattan. The quarantine regulations of the Health Board absorbed the attention of the press and the mercaatile community, both of which were vsing every effort to obtain a speedy change in the objectionable features of said regulations. The health of Havana continues good. Business is at astandstill, and a monetary crisis prevailed, From Ottawa, Cannda, further reports come of the disaffection of the mititia, ono of the causes of which it is now supposed originates from a dread of having a fight with the Fenians as well as their non-payment. The repeal of the Neutrality laws had occasioned con. siderub!o irritation, Twelve guns are now on the way from England, nine and twelve-pounders. Twelve bat- teries aro awaiting transportation, Public opinion in- clines to tho view that the government connived at the escape of hiarphy and his companions. Tho South Carolina Legislature met yesterday in oxtra session, The Governor’s message recommends admission of negro evidence in cases before the civil courts, the abolition of impricoument for debt, and a sale of the Stato bonds for the, purpose of rendering aid to the dostitute citizens, ‘The statement of the public debt for the month of August shows thai the total debt 1s $2,728,314,835 95, andthe amount of coin and currency in the treasury | is $132,631,067 73, Major General Miles has been rotloved of the command of Fortress Monroe and the adjoining district, and Col. Burton, of the Fifth artillery, has besn assigned to the post. The United States steamer Marble Head, of the naval academy fleot, had arrived at Hampton Roads. The trial of the Adams Express rubbers was resumed at Danbury, Conn., on Tuesday. The examination for the defence was taken up. The father of one of the accused parties was placed on the stand, and gave evi- dence positively declaring that his son was elsewhere when the robbery was committed. George Trussell, one of the owners of the famons trot- ting horse Dexter, was shot dead in Chicago on Tuesday evening by his mistress, a woman calling hers’ Molly Trussell. Jealousy was the cause of the murder. The murdoress was arrested, The case of Elisha Ruckman, on trial in the Bergen County Circuit Court of New Jersey, for cattle poisoning was concluded yesterday, the jury rendering a verdict of guilty. ‘Thore were seventy-five deaths from cholera in St. Lows and sixteon in New Orleans on Tuesday. An express train on the New York Central Railroad, which left Albany yesterday morning, ran off the track near Rochester, and was completely wrecked. Five per- sons were killed and forty-five injured. The Vermont Election--Signs of a Coming Reign of Terror, The Vermont State election has been carried by the radical republicans, and by @ majority of five thousand, more or less, over that of last year, and upon a very full vote. The radicals of course are jubilant. They proclaim that “this triumph cannot be overestimated,” that their gains show that “instead of being demor- alized” they “are strengthened by Mr. John- son’s course,” and that this result in Vermont is “an indication of the entire canvass through- out the North.” An increased majoriiy, however, to the dom- inent radical faction in Vermont has always been the result of an exciting election, regard- leas of the drift this way or that way of the general prevailing sentiment of the North, It was so in 1856, not only in Vermont but in Maine; and yet in the Pennsylvania October election of that year the tide was turned and a result obtained which secured the defeat of Fremont in the November Presidential election. In 1862, again, radical Vermont remained un- shaken, while all the great Northern Central ls es, from the Hudson to the Mississippi river, wore carried by a political revolution. So it may be in these coming State elections of 1866, We should be extremely sorry to believe that radical! Vermont “ is an indication of the entire canvass throughout the North.” It is probable, on the other band, that the radicals do believe it Is an indication; it is evident that they are stripped for the fight all over the North, and in- tend that it shall be no child's play; and from all the signs of the times, if these radicals are successful, we may certainly look for a reign of terror, The radical gies and insults thrown at the President in the course of his present journey— | a system of partisan bushwacking hitherto an- known in the political contests of this country— the fierce denunciations and threatenings of radical orators and organs, the ungovernable f their followers, shorn of their exec nage, and the spirit of savage fanaticism viling through the ranks of that party, all ue to warn us of the impending danger eign of or, d'sorganization and anar- b “Old Thad Stevens” at the last session of Congress threw out the hint to his followers in his warning to Prosident Johnson of the fate e >= of Chorlos the First of England, and in his announcement that the Honse of Repesenta- tives is “a grand ingnest” for the indictment of refracto-y foderal officeholders, The honorable or rather divhonorable Mr. Ingersoll, of Tiinois, with his cue from Stevens, proclaimed Andrew Johnson “a renegade,” “a falthless demagoguo” and “a traltor.” The immaculate Forney rings the charges upon these insults | with the addition of “drankard ;” and that | old clerical charlatan, Brownlow, ¢aps the | climax in his clerical denunciation of the \ Hesqan whom he calls “the dead dog of the ite House.” The radical chorus throughout the country is but tho repetition of these out Fageous epithets. In fact, as the President him- sel!, provoked beyond forbearance, says, the whole radical keniel has been tarned loose upon him, yelling at his heels, But there is method jn ll this madness, a we see from the proceedings of the Philadel- phia nigger worshipping Convention. Ben Butler and Brownlow, Yates and Chandler and theix fellow destructives are. there at home and bolder than ever in their denunciations. Chandler, the blood-letting Chandler, of Michi- Gan, goes so far as to declare the purpose of the radical faction to be nothing less than the impeachment of President Jobnson. This is the issue which they present to the people at last without much equivocation. The House of Representatives is to indict Andrew John- son and the Senate is to try him on articles of impeachment “if he does not execute the Jaws” of Congress. Says Chandler in so many words, “If Andrew,Johnson does not execute the laws he is a traitor, and we will impeach him.” We may take it as a settled purpose, there- fore, of the radicals, in the event of their suc- cess in these fall elections, to impeach Presi- dent Johnson, first electing some such reliable fanatic as Sumner or Wade President of the Senate, to become President for the time being with the removal of Johnson. What then? Then we may look out for such a reign of mad- ness, fanaticism, terror and confusion as will hurry us headlong to the gulf of bankruptcy and ruin, financial and political, Union and States, North and South. This is the danger which now threatens us. This ig the issue which honest, patriotic men are now called upon to meet in view of these approaching State elections—a violent revolution at Wash- ington or a peaceable maintenance of the gov- ernment and the Union at the ballot boxes of the Northern States. Honest men of all par- ties with whom the Union and the constitu- tion are paramount, cannot hesitate in such a contest to stand by the zood cause of the ad- ministration and its simple and patriotic policy of Southern restoration. Upon this issue, just proclaimed, the Vermont election is no indication of the elections to come. The Contrast Between the Two Philadelphia | Conveutions. The great and striking pointa of difference between the conservative and radical parties of this country are admirably exhibited in the contrast between the Union Convention, which met at Philadelphia in August, and the Nigger Worshippers’ Convention, which is now in ses- sion in the same city. The one was dignified and statesmanlike: the other is violent and vul- gar. The one welcomed the return of peace; the other insists upon the renewal of the war. The one declared emphatically for the Union; the other advocates a policy that must lead to disunion, The one favored the restoration of our white citizens to their constitutional rights; the other is committed to the extermination theories of Parson Brownlow and Ben Butler’s ery for blood. The one was attended by some of our bravest soldiers and wisest states- men; the other is composed of insano and revo- Ivtionary radicals, The ono was an honor to the country; the other is absurd and dis- graceful, < * At the Union Convention all the States and Terrilories were represented by delegations chosen by thé people and expressing the senti- ments of the people. The delegates to the Nigger Worshippers’ Convention are without constituencies; they represent nobody but themselves; the majority of them never saw the States from which they profess to come, and Philadelphia loafers, picked up in thestroets or the barrooms, pret Speak, for the loyal men of the South, Tho Union Convention as- sembled for a certain purpose, transacted its business in an orderly and parliamentary man- ner and adjourned harmoniously. The Nigger Worshippers’ Convention has already wasted more time in wrangling, abusing tho conserva- tives and slandering the President than the other Convention required for all its sessions, The Union Convention had well defined and constitutional principles, which it incorporated into a brief, emphatic and invincible platform. The Nigger Worshippers’ Convention seoms de- termined to repudiate the only principle—that of universal negro suffrage—to which it can be said to have any claim, unless bloodshed, riot- ing, miscegenation, debauchery and anarchy may be called principles, and they are cer- tainly enunciated as such in the speoches of the radical delegates. Compare the characters of the gallant Dix and Senator Doolittle, the temporary and per- manent chairmén of the Union Convention, with those of Tom Durant and Mr. Speed, who fill the same offices in the Nigger Worshippers’ Convention, and they will be found apt expo- nents of the two assemblages. Compare the characters of the delegates to the two Conven- tions, the resolutions presented, the speeches delivered, the conduct and deportment of all concerned, and it will be found that while the’ one was @ body only eqnalled in ability by that which framed the constitution, the other is a vicious collection of the most violent extrem- isis of both North and South. To impeach and remove the President and to incite hogro insurreciions inthe South are the objects of these radic ypenly avowed in such specches as tha! of Senator Chandler. They xelude negroes from the Convention and want to keep the negro-suffrage issue hidden for a time In order to delade the voters at the ap- proaching elections, and are thus willing to break all their promises to the blacks go as to secure a little longer lease of political power. But under this concealment lurk dark and dan- gerous schemes which are only now and then revealed by the most reckless of the ranters, Our graphic reports of the proceedings give all the various phases of the gathering—its comic side, ite rebellious side, its ridiculous side and ite disunion side; and we have no need to re- capitulate now the utterances of the delegates, from their threats of assassination to their avowals of miscegenation tieories, All this has been carefully perused by our readers and will be useful for reference hereafter. At present we have to ask the candid and intelli- gent voters of the country to consider the con- trast between this Convention and that which met in August and to decide for themselves which is the more worthy of their sympathy, their adherence and their support at the polls. Detecaras to tam Arpayy CoxvEntion.— Several delegations will go from this city to the State Convention at Albany next Tuesday, and we hear that plote and plans are on foot to admit only one delegation and keep all the others ont, If this policy be pursued it will kill the Convention. The only true course is admit all delegates who come properly accredited trom the people, so that the patriotic masses and not a mere clique of politicians, tay be ropr esented. ‘Taw CLeveLanp Convention oF SOLDIERS. AND Samors.—We call upon General Grant, .Ad- miral Farragut and the other conserya- tive and distinguished men of our army” and navy to take a leading part in the Cleveland Convention. The country is pass- ing through a greater crisis than that of the war, and such distinguished men ought to speak and act inthe most decided manner, Their voices are all powerful with the people. They ought not to be deterred from doing their duty to the country at such a critical time through any fastidious notions about interfer- ing in what is called political matters. The great question of the day——restoration, peace, and harmony of the republic—-is not one of mere politics but a question involving the salvation ofthe country. They ought not only to attend the Convention themselves, but should also invite Generals Loe, Joe Johnston and other prominent officers of, the South who fought so well for their cause and who have accepted so gracefully and honestly the decision of the war, Let our heroes follow the example of the statesmen who met at the conservative Phila- delphia Convention. Grant and Lee, Sherman and Joe Johnston laid down the basis of restoration and future amity at the capitulation. Let them follow it up in the same Christian spirit and the happiest results will follow. These men on both sides are the true represen- tative men. They are not governed by party political feeling and spite, they have broad and statesmaniike views, and the people would’ t have the utmost confidence in their action. By all means let us have a Convention of the great and heroic men, who are always the true men, from both sections of the country. That would be the proper counterpart of the con- servative Philadelphia Convention and would give the greatest strength to the patriotic morement inaugurated there. Parry Journatism.—The violence and fero- city of the radical journals in their scandalous personal abuse of President Johnson exceed anything of the kind in all the records of our political contests, and the two leading journals in this shameful electioneering business are the two Tribunes or two Dromios, the Dromio of New York and the Dromio of Chicago. The course of both has a tendency to riots, blood- shed and anarchy; but while, in the event of a riot in Chicago, the Dromio there, from the number of his partisans, would have some chance of escape, here, with four or five to one against the radical faction, we would warn Greeley of the danger of going too far in excit- ing the wrath of the masses. He may turn a deaf ear to our advice, but we warn him of the consequences. If it comes to the worst with him, however, in adhering to his folly, as he will have no longer the shelter of Windust’s, we can only offer him a refuge at Fort Wash- ington. There, notwithstanding all his sins and transgressions, he will, till the storm blows over, be taken care of and fed, not upon squashes, sour milk and bran bread, but upon good roast beef, plum pudding and Chiteau Margaux. This is consistent with oar policy of restoration. But let Greeley, if he wishes to avoid the necessity of this appeal to our hos- pitality and forgiveness, beware of stirring up riots and political confusion in the city of New York. Sovramry ExranMination.—Parson Brown low, of Tennessee, and Ben Butler, of Massa- of the North, boldly demand the extermifaHoh of the mags of the Southerners. We mention these men particularly, because they are outspoken and do ,not disguise their ani- mosity and purpose; but the other radical teaders, as Wade, Stevens, Wilson, Banks, Chandler, Sumner, Colfax and others, are equally as malignant and destructive. It is only necessary to read the speeches of any of these vindictive Jacobins to learn the purpose of the radical party. They hate the Southern people—not on account of the war, for they always did hate them—and nothing will satisfy these malicious demagogues short of extermi- nation. ‘They do not know the meaning of the words magnanimity or reconciliation. They have no more Christian spirit than the vandals of a barbarous age or the bloody Jacobins of the French Revolution. Woe be to the South and the whole country if these men are per- mitted to rule. We should have a reign of terror, civil war and universal ruin. The only hope we have is that the people of the North, and particularly of the great Central States, will have common sense and patriotism enough to prevent such @ catastrophe by electing to Congress a different class of men at the coming elections. Tue Faun Busiwess.—The fall trade of this metropolis has opened in an unprecedented manner, The columns of the Heraup are crowded with genuine business advertisements, which fact is always a correct barometer of trade. The vast amount of advertising, in ad- dition to the news which we are bound to sup- ply the public with, compels us to issue a triple sheet daily. Our circulation is increas- ing rapidly and is equal to all the other morn- ing daily papers of the city put together. The business community and all who advertise are shrewd enough to appreciate the value of such a medium for their advertisements. The HERALD, then, as we remarked, is a correct baro- meter of the activity of wade. From the pre- sent early indications of the opening fall busi- ness we may safely calculate upon a very pros- perous season for our merchants and tradesmen. In fact, the whole country is full of energy and business life. Nothing can check our wonder- fal career of prosperity if the radical political demagogues in and out of Congress will per- mit us to have domestic peace. Take Carn, Greziey.—Men who sow the wind are very apt to reap the whirlwind. They who stir up the elements of disorder aud violence are apt to suffer from them.

S¥Racose, Sept. 6, 1866. PRELIMINARY PROCKEDINGS—STORMY CAUCUS, The delegation from New York city have had a spicy caucus this morning. ‘The meeting was a regular stormy affair. The contest between Sinclair Tousey and Dean, from the Seventh district in New York, came up for settlement. The chairman of the delegation ruled Tousey out, declaring that he was a contestant and had no right to act. The excitement over, the question oe- came so great that it was finally decided to leave it to the Convention to decide. ‘A resolution was adopted by the delegation re- commending the increase of the representation from New York city in the State Central Committee to six, and directing the six men to organize the different election districis of tho city, and instruct- ing them to appoint the inspectors of the primary meet- ings for the clection of delegates to the Assembly and Congressional conventions. This is a direct thrust at the present party organization in the city, known as the Twenty-third street organization. That organization has heretofore discharged that duty; but it seems that the radicals are afraid that it is getting too conservative for their interests, and have therefore taken this course to destroy its power. This will increase the difficulty among, the republicans In the city, and bring about a formidable split. ‘A resolution was also adopted declaring it to be the duty of the Convention to place two soldiers on the ticket. The two soldiers whom they favored are Col. Woodford for Lieutenant Governor and General Moffat, of Malone, ‘or State Prison Inspector. They attempted to take a vote on the Lieutenant Governorship, with the view of having the delegation vote as a unit in the Con- vention. As the vote progressed it was discovered that Woodtord was receiving the largest number, and that Alvord was in aminoriry. Intense excitement followed, rendering it necessary for the delegation to adjourn before the voto was concluded. The move for a new deal in candidates for all officers below that of Governor is gaining strength this morning, and if there was any concentration of strength it would succead, But they have got no leader capable of unit- ing the elements or ne, out @ State ticket. Those engaged in pushing this idea will therofore be com- pelied to rely upon circumstances and combinations during the balloting in the Convention. A great deal of bitter feeling still oxists, with denunciations loud and deep aguinst the Johnson or conservative party, The dele; fairly bolt over with rage. When asked what makes them so vindictive and abusive in language, they fiy into a passion and reply, “Talk about personal abuse! ‘Who but Johnson and Seward are indulying in abuse? They, not we, are the jes using abusive epitheta,”” They then blow out with all the epithets they can form out of the English language, proving the very opposite to that which they claim. ‘The New York delegation also passed a resolution this morning approving the entire aciion of and in- sisting that it shall be one of the planks in the platform. ARSEMBLING OF THE CONVENTION, The Convention assembled at tweive o'clock. The only decoration of the hall was a coarse caricature of President Johnson bung against the wall at one cnd of the platform. It represented the President sitting in an easy chair, with a large head and slim body, with a pile of pardons in his lap, throwing them out indiscrimi- nately to the outstretched hands intended to be repre- sented as stained with blood. This vulgar placard attracted considerable attention and comment, No Amorican flag wasseen in the hali. The Stars and Stripes were ety orerlog and forgotten in the desire to caricaluro the len! : ‘The moment thé chairman of the Convention called gentleman to order, an effort was made to smash the © Contral Committee by moving that General ‘an Wyck, of =uitVan, should be made the temporat chairman of the Convention.

THR COMMITTER ON RESOLUTIONS. ond Contest arose in the Convention over the man- ner of appointing tbe Committees on Resolutions. The extreme portion desired that the temporary chaitman should appotnt that committee. There wero a number in the Convention afraid to trust him with the selecthon of those who were to draft the resolutions and platform. Although nothing was said in debate in regard to the character of the resolutions, yet it was very evident that the question of ineorporating a negro suffrage plank in the platform was at the botiom of the whole struggle. A compromise was Snally brought about, and an indireet test on negro suffrage avoided. of a negro suffrago plank further time to operate, ‘and they improved it. During @ recess of the Convention Roscoe Conkling ana a large number of prominent republicans from the iuterior of the State did all in their wer to convince the delegates of the necessity of oring that question as a matter of policy; but the list of pames announced on the committee on resolutions at the commencement of the afternoon session does not indicate that they made much progress, for a majority of that committes is composed of the most radical dele- gates in the body, with Greeley as chairman, ‘THE HONORS RAST WITH GRERLEY.

SPRRECH OF THE PREMANENT PRESIDENT. Tremaine’s speech on taking the chair as permanent Promdent was long and tedious, so much #0 that Greeley slept nearly all the time of ite delivery. It was redical ip its tone, and carried out the same high pressure idea that bas existed from the commencement of the s#sston. ‘The few conservative men here have had no chance to show themselves, or make the first impression upon the proceedings, Even Judge Gmott, who was selected a5 their representative for Prosident of the Convention, did not oven obtain an opportunity to test the question, or have his name considered a moment for the position by the Convention. This feeting was strikingly manifested by tho applause that greeted the expression at the ciore of Tremain’s apeech, when he announced that the on- gress of 1868 would, like the Congress of 1964, refuse to count the electoral votes of the South, and pass a law ting their reception, and if Presidem Johnson re- fused to ablde by the law there was a way of putting somo in his place that woold, This outburst was followed by the charge in substance that if the South w to resiet it they would be annihilated by the veterans of the past war marching down South and _ ishing treavon with the bayonet.

Wieting Hall was filled at noon by the delegates, mom- bers of the Loyal League and a large audience in the gat- leries, TEMPORARY ORGANIZATION. At twolve o'clock the Convention was called to order by William R, Stewart, Chairman of the State Central Committee, Mr. Lixcouy, of Tioga, moved that Judge Tremain, of Albany, be chosen temporary chairman. Ex-Senator Mappen said that while he had no objec- tion to Mr, Tremain, and would not object to see him permanent chairman, he rose to oppose the motion, and moved to substitute the name of General Charles H. Van Wyck, ofsSuHivan, He said it was well known that until the past two or three years the power of orga: our conventions had been usurped by an outside It was the habit for the chairman of the State Commit: tee, on calling the Convention to order, to name the temporary bocigan 4 officer, and through a mistaken idea of courtesy is was not questioned. Again, a budy outside of this Convention has assumod to take the naming of both the temporary and iding officer out of the hands of the Convention. The State Committee has no right to do this, and he was op] toit, He had nothing against Judge Tremain, but ral Van Wyck had served his country well and gallantly in the fleld and in its councils; and besides he had great experience in civil affairs. He would like to see Judge Tremain selected for permanent chairman, and,would support him for that position; but he hoped the Conven- tion would choose General Van Wyck as temporary chair- man.
