Cox, blacks, were then specially . announced and voted upon. The result was their unanimous nomination as delegates to the Constitutional 'Convention. The meeting was one of the largest ever held on the. Square, and the greater portion oi the colored population were present. The tobacco Factories and other establishments where large numbers of negroes' were era ployed, had to close for the day, to give them an opportunity to attend. There were fewer white people than usual present. It is said that a greater portion of white peo ple, and a moderate number of colored men intend making other: nominations, that they will not support the Hunnicutt ticket. Theex-officers and soldiers party! did not take part in the Convention, and will not Tote the ticket nominated, bat will form ohe of their own, thus splitting the party. ; After the nominations were made each candidate was called and .signified his ac ceptance except Underwood, who was ab sent from the cityj j v j 1 The speeches were of a prescriptive order, Morrisey, an Irishman, declaring! that he would vote in Convention to disfranchise every foreigner that aided the rebellion, while Hunnicutt favors not only disfran chising all that Congress has disfranchised, but all Ministers of j the Gospel and'Editors who advocated secession or rebellion. It has been a gala day with the olacks and their wives. ; " ' ' t1 : , The Dispatch learns by special telegrams that Dr. Cbas.

Many of our citizens know by sight or person ally, Mr. Joshua Collins, a colored eitizeu, aed now elgny-two years, w no uas Deen lor neany twenty ysara a resideut ot the city, holding dur ing that time mauy positions of trust, and who is jnow employed as au, agent for Mr. George John-i ston, in charge of a coal yard on Water i strt-et. Joshua Collins and his brother Solomon, the sub ject of this sketch, were born of 6lave parents ; Joshua in .Fleming i County, Kentucky, iu 17d knd Solomon in Mason Uouuty, same titite, in 1807. Six weeks after Solomon birtb, Joshua, who was then about twenty years old, was sold to parties in Virginia, aud bidding aJieu to his Old .Kentucky Home," aud his pareuts aud brothers aud sisters, removed to Virginia.; and thence in 18 17, to Knoxvlile, where he remain t-d, being sold and resold several times, , till 184y, when he purchased himself far $(JJ0, and mtJvd to this city in 1850, where be has sinee resided, hale, hearty, and respected by ail who know him.

He arrived in New York last May, and w rking his way w stward, arrived in this city on Friday last, and ou Suuday, while walking -along our streets, the twa brothers, Joshua and Solomon, met for the first time in sixty years, and for the first time since Solomon was an lidant six weeks old, and Joshua a young man of twenty-two.: I r , ' . . . i The meeUng last Sunday was purely accidental. As - each was u Wilklng along tue street, Joshua with the civility and kindness tor which be js noted, addressed Solomonroc jailing him as a lii-anSer In tbis city; and after the topics of the ffiriffoeXa&u inquiries were made as to each other birthplace, aud mu h 10 JES ?

Ives, fohinerly Protes- taht Episcopal Bishop ;of North Carolina, will no doubt be deeply regretted by mmy throughot the country, irrespective of relig ious sectarianism. ' ! " h He was a man that stood the first in the English Church of America; and when he threw aside the tenets of Henry the Eighth, and his virgin daughter Elizabeth, and em braced the views of Catholicism, a howl ran all over the land that ;he; was a fool was crazy, ni.had lost his wits in abind(iniug the dogniivs of the Rfforaiation, "and in ac cepting those of the Woman in scarlet prof ligate, impiou, apostate Rome !

He reached his native land to meet the cold shoulder those who were so re cently his warmest admirers. They ; could only now look upoii him as a ma man, and accordingly shunned ,him. Bjtthe great divine found ne w, genuine and warm friends in the bosom of that religion whose Founder he Considored the Rock of Ages. In grasp ing their hands he Resigned all of his former weal th,' all the revenue of an Espi;copal Bish op. He little recked this where his ultimate salvation! Was in the scale. He desired cot to live, merely iii this.'wofld of strife, but to live in tho world to come torever. The Cass of VViLHAii Whight Parker h An Appeal Taken, Yesterday morning. William Witian Parker, found guilty on Saturday last . of the imurder of William CniLDRESsi was brought into court to re - ceive the seutenceol the law. A movement was made "to obtain a new trial but it was not granted, and the sentenceof the law was pronounced upon the prisoner, which was, that upon Friday, the 8th dajjot November next, between the hours oflttfn and two, he ube taken ifrom the jail, to the usual place of execution, and there be hanged by the neck,; until he is i dead, dead, dead ! and may Goo have mercyjoh his soul." j ; 4 Notwithstanding this,, however,"' a short respite will be gained by him, as an appeal was taken by his counse to the Supreme Court, and there the matter will he hually; decided in 1 Doceailjerj next. The grounds upon which the appeal is based, are so aid legal tecunicatities. i Parker appeared very little affected j the sentence "pronounced j upon him, audi when asked! if he hid anything to say wny the sentence of the lavv shouUl not be pissed ipoa him, made a few somewhat unconnect ed remarks.) ne stated that he wa3 entirely jnrbcent of the crime imputed to him, and that there was no blood upon his hands,--neither that! of Childress nor of any other. He stated tliat he h:ul never hadi a prelimi nary examination, and" thatf such had bta the case thai he could easily have proved au alibi; but that . such a length or iioi had elapsed that! he could do nothing now.
