Delivtrtd before the Columbia (Toiivcution :

I therefore, restrained inftffilf from ?i?*iil.inir

in reply to tlie four gentlemen wlio addressed

upon some one holding tli? views of our

lo the Charleston Convention- from the
State at large should be reamed?and lie
urged it ou the ground that they ift/e the
delegates to the Charleston Convention.?
lie did not assume for them as I am sure
they would not fur themselves, superiority
over other gentlemen. The choice was
urged on the ground expressly that-they
were the former delegates and had don?
tyelj. The Convemion proceeded to ballot
for o"he at a time. It was announced by
tlio Chairman of the Charleston delegation
to tlio April Columbia Convention that
Gen. Simons was wij4iUrawn, and the same
gentleman nominated Col. Ilayne. The
lmllnt. tn/ilknlnri/. otwl ...?o
f ~ mivi mi IIiUCIU UHO VIC ?
olared to do cljoson. ' Now, observe, Mr.
President, that it is just at this point of
tyn^ that this demonstration is made. A
gentleman, not of their party,, but tlieir
nominee, is beaten., and for tbat reason the
other delegates for the' State at large, in
cjuick^succession, decline. Mr. Prestoq, a
? e .u:- ts ?i ' i > . .
r.uci*-jjr?iu iruiu mis,v^uiit^resaionni uisiMCl,
takes the same ground; and iny friend,
th^iCjiinirman of the Central Committee,
ad3res9e^.the Convention, accusing- us of
mitRing pledges which wo have failed to
redeem, and ending by resigning his position
rtnd bidding us farewell. So that this
state of things is shown :
1. We are sot to li?iye a single voice in
tlie delegation, but must take the whole.
2. Upon the client of one gentleman,
not even of their delegation nor parly, the
time Ims arrived for their dispersion.
I can form no other opinion thap that
nothing would suit Uiem but the occupation
of everv office in this ftaiivaniinn ?
And, upon the failure to receive one only,
they ii>f>uine the attitude of, injured innocence.
To prove thegauHffcb of my
tiou, I shall now retrace my steps-^for a
law -moments, in order that I may show
that the ConventioiiyjJOtftrty cawe here with
an organized movement, to tabjptliG eStire
control oi tins to fill every position
of any importance' fii it from beginning ic
end. Tliey have been disappointed.?
Those who act with me have bpen.-willirig
from tlie beginning, and are so still (foi
we will not lie driven from our positiot^bj

Under these circumstances I entered tliti
hall and immediately proposed an nnfendment
to Gpn. Gadberry's resolution. As
this has been charged to bo the commencement
of concerted movement against the
Conventionists, I take occnsion to say, that

it is conceded tb^'Conventionists are in tho'

(hat we^wotild oppose the appointment of
Committees by tbo presidirtg officer. I
made the motion, because*! had ndtf Succeeded
in finding the Chairman of my delegation,
Col. Hayne, by whom I expected
the motion to be made.
I say, then, that in this, the first step towards
organization, the Convention party
ignored us altogether. That it was a move,

and while, I acquit yotl, Mr. Presided
nny knowledge of their irHeritions, or any
deRire for the position, I cannot acquit them
of making'their selection,-and keeping the
party with whom I act ignor^jbt'of
a fixed purpose to power and control in
this body, ft has been charged, as another
evidence of opposition, that another candidate
was nominated. I have already said
there was no copcert on our side in this
matter. lie was nominated by a gentleman
on this floor, and itvij^ery few moments
he was wilhdraftivtjy the same gen[
tleman. This shows plainly there could

The next cause of complaint Is the selection
of the district system in the nfode of

Wte risking little to say, .that in:tho wide

more,service in the publio council^t-han wo

JJpon What principle,^then, would tlfl&y

pretend to soy that this body is n part of
the onziipization which assembled at Charleston/or
k identical rtith that which mot
hero in April. Tim is tcogplgar for die.cussioo.
The delegation from South Qgfolina
in comhion with the other seceding States
hy the ve>y terms of their withdrawal, constituted
a new and distinct organisation.
The resolution undef'^hich we.are assem
^bled, invited all iho members o fit be Democratic
party who approve the platform reported
by-tbe mnjprity of the States in the
Cliai^eaton Convention. ThesC tcrmB are
wide enough to embrace those who have
not heretofore acted with the. Convention.,
parly. ^ And ttiey have felt themselves at
liberty to obey the call because it looks to
a Convention at Richmond, which is practically
a Southern Conventin. It is not
obnoxious to the many objections chargeable
to the mode,of Organization adopted
by the National Democratic Party of" the
Union. We have, therefore, fe^t ourselves
at liberty to go into the Richmond Conven
lion. It. may accomplish nothing bdt it
is recommended to my approval as a meeting
of delegates from the Gotton-grriwiiig
States. Every such ^onfer^ope will, t thifyk
be productive of bervpBfe It is not possible

vantage of th? progress of events, ?nd we
may possibly^, deriv%beuefit from thgm
though they may prove the Chapter of acj

affords a striking (Jxamplo. Events, vfrbioli
