A freediunn sat on a pile of bricks,
As the rain was paltering down; I
His shoes ^ere woru and his coat was torn
And his hat without a crowu. si
W,! viewed the oloudsniid he viewed himself. Si
- . And shook the wet from his head, tl
And a 9&ar dimmed the eye as he saw go by S
A boy with a luaf of bread. ,ls
And he raised his voice iu.a dolesome tone, ^
That sounded like a gong,
While the rain came down on his nappy ;crown, 1
* And sang to himself this song: P

Wade Hampton's Letter.
To Htc jjcople of Sunt ft Carolina:
Expecting to leave the State in a fewlays,
(or an uncertain period, I cannot.
Id so without expressing to my fellowilizens
my profound sense of the honor
laid to m. by the vote given to me iu
he resent election for Governor. In reurniig
my thanks to them for the late
pontani-.ins and extraordinary manifestsion
of their kindness, it is due to them
hat I should st'te the reasons wb'ch inlucedjne
to deelinctlto be a candidate.?
n the first place, the Convention which
ave the eieetiun of Governor to the pcode,
had, with singular unanimity?
hough not iu their public capacity?re*
uested the distinguished gcntlcmau who
as been elected, to become a candidate
jr the ofliec. This he consented to do,
hough, doubtless, ut great personal inconenience
am] a Heavy sacrifice to his peroral
interests.? Under these circumtauces
I was unwilling to do any thing
bat might cause, a political contest in the
tate. I thought that no gcod could arse
at homo from such a contest, whilst it
light do us infinite mishief abroad. The
'resident of the United States had exibited
not ouly stroDg disposition to
roteet the South from the radicalism of
ic North, but to reinstate us in our civil ,
ud political rights. I feared that my .
lection?by embarrassing him in his laors
and policy?might incidentally do
aim to the State. Snperadcd to these i
onsiderations of a public character, tie- (
rring tuc from appearing as a candidate, ,
iere were others of a private nature not
;ss strong. My affairs, neglected for five
ears, imperatively demanded niv person- '
I attention. Had I believed that my '
lection as Governor coukl really benefit 1
ie State, or subserve any of her true* in '
rests, no sacrifice of a private nature,
owever great, would have deterred me
oni accepting that .or any other position ,
) which she ihight 1 ave called me ; but ,
'garding my nomination only as n com. (
liiucnt trom some of my former coin^ (
ides, I felt at liberty to decline, th&ugh j
eoply sensible of the honor paid me by i'
ie nouiinatioh. and the manner in I
men it was received tnrougbout tno
tate.?These reasons, which I hope you ,
ill understand and appreciate, impelled ,
ic to withdraw my name. Having g?v- ,
a the reasons for the course I pursued, t
id expressed my thanks for your gen- ,
rous confidence in me, I should p. rbaps
cse. Cut the eviJeuce ) on have gjvi
of your kindness to and confidence in
10?evidence .as unexpected as it is
ratifying?authorizes niOj, I trust, with
it presumption, to ?33 a few "words oi
musel.
For years past it has l.een^tLe boast of 1
ar State that J-berc-was but one party <
itliiu her limits. Commendable and
ital as that slate of allairs was during (
in wor it ic conrnnli* if *if 'ill li.co a\
ow. Every association of the past, every !
uty of the present, every hope of the
iture, bids, us still to stand "sh'uildcr to 1
louldcr." The work before us demands 1
II the patriotism, all the courage, all the 1
ndnrauce of our whole people. Let no '
arty strife, no minor issues, no party '
olitics, divert us from the great, and
ressijig work of the hour?that of reau- ,
natiug, as far as possible, our prostrate j
nd bleeding State, and rehabiting hor ,
5 speedily as may be, with the forms, (
lie rights and the sanctity of government
nd of law. :
That bark, which was launched a few "
cars ago amid sucli joyous acclamations,
hich was freighted with such precious
opes, ilud which was wafted on by such
arncst prayers, bus snfFuied slnprrook.
Tt behooves nc jic wico mun to
uikl of its broken timbers, as best wo
ia^', a raft, whenever we may hope to
each a haven of rest ami safety.
It may be that when the forms of govrnment
are restored, and freedom of
pecch allowed to us, your late Convene
ion will be subjected to harsh criticism
ud its action impugned. Should such,
nhappily, he the case, remember that
ou, the people of South Carolina, acepted
this Convention as part and parel
of the terms of your surrender. The
'resident had no shadow of authority, 1
duiit?under the Constitution of the
Inited States?to order a Convention
n this or any other State; but, as a
onqucror, he had the right to offer, if
:ot dictate, terms. The terms offered
>y hiui you have accepted, and yon arc
fed, by every dictate of honor and of
|Hincss, to abide Ivy them honestly,
Mrccp, in good faith, the pledges you i
lave given. I do not, myself, concur
'ul;y in all the measures adopted by the
Jouventiou, hut I shall cheerfully acijni
,-sv-v >u inu (iLiniii ii< ujuiv lu carry um
aithfully the tunas agreed on, and Lwilingly
accord to it high prais- for tlw
manner in which it discharged its arduous
ami luiwulcomo labors. No similar
body ever represented more largely than
it did the dignity, the learning, the virtue,
;iud the patriotism of ih<* State, and 1 am
sure that it was actuated by pure and
high motives.
Entertaining these views, t think that is
is our duty to sustain the action of the
Convention in recognizing the abolition
of slavery, to support the President of the
United States so long as he manifests a
disposition to restore all our rights as a
sovereign State, and to give to our newly
elected Governor a cordial co-operation
in his grave and responsible duties.
Above all, let us stand by our State?her
record is honorable, her escutcheon untarnished.
Here is our country?the
land of of our nativity-, the home of our
afff;'.,i.i',n. Here all otr hopes shohld
crnlre ; licrc wc have worshiped the pod
of our lathers ; here, amid charred and
blackened ruinp, arc the spots* we fondly
called our homes; and here we buried
the ashes of our kindred. All these sacred
ties hind ns to our State, and they
are intensified by her suffering and her
desolation.
" -.nri c? a child, whan scaring sounds molest
Cling closer and closer 'o the mother's breast;
go the loud torrent and the whirlwind roar
Hut blind us to our native land the more."
I (rust that. you. will pardon inc for
thus venturing to counsel yon. Believe
me. that it is in no presumptuous feeling
that I do so, but solely i:i an honest, sin
cere and humble hope of contributing
my mite to the welfare and honor of our
Stale. What I have said has been
evoked by jei.r recent manifestations of
kindness to me. TLis I shall cherish as
one of the proudest recollections of my
* * II?- I'll. A
me, ror it assures ine or your ueucr nisit
I have tried to do my duty. It only remains
for me, in bidding you farewell,
to say that whenever the State, needs my
services she has only to .command and I
shall obey.
I am respectfully and grate fully, your
fellow-citizen,. WADE 'HAMPTON.

the old Charleston Mercury, the publication of
which lias been suspended on*nccount of a forced
military measure, since February last, will be
resumed on to-day, the 1st inst. The Mercury
is and old favorite, and we doubt not in the
future will receive the very liberal support that
has heretofore been extended to it.
Choice Groceries, "Wines, Liquors,
&c.?By reference to advertisement it
will be seen that Mr. W. Daascti. three
V' -y'

a full and complete assortment of light
groceries. Also, the choicest brands of
fine wines and liquors, with many luxuries
such as lobsters, o}*sters, sardines, and
crackors of every kind?in fact any and
everything calculated to quench the thirst
or delight the palate of. the most appreciative

known to the lovers of such luxuries, and
is said to excel iu preparing mixed drinks.

TilK Cul.outu Conyentios.?\Vc lake from
I lie* Charleston Carolinian I lie following resolulions
ollercd at. the Converii i<ai ol colored men,
held in that city during ilie past week. II
those resolution.-.are to In: carried out in every
particular, in good faith, we cannot see sufficient
reason tor any man to object. We hope
they tnay be. The Carolinian also remarks
that tho resolutions were still further developed
in statements conversationally mado with refcrenco
to the lenchi-g of the igrjorciit colored
man everywhere; thal'tbcir first duty was to
secure the confidence of the people by becoming
faithful and industrious laborers; their second,
to elevate themselves by education and by living
as law Riding citizens.
Resolved. That it is with deep regret we pel'ciovo
a willingness on tlio part, of somoi of th?"
pof.pl.. of tlii.i Stale, to tieljeve that tlicro is dan
ger of an insurrectiorvand we take this opportunity
of making it known to the' world that
"our past carecrus law-abiding subjects, shall
be strictly adhered to as law-abiding citizens.
Resolved, Tlmt as the old institution of slavery
has passed away, we cherish in our hearts
no hatred towards those who have held out'
bretheren as slaves; bu t that we extend the
fellowship to all, and shall make it our special
aim io establish unity, peace and love anjpng
all men.
Resolved, That we shall.encourage the freed men
in acquiring habits of industry and obtaining
education.
As Intelligent Fuekdman.?As has been
suggested by a revered and estimable citizen,
s,if goodreommon sense, intelligent and ".vido
spread observation qualify any one to give
sound advice to his fellow frecdmen, as to the
best and wisest course to pursue in the new
rcia.ion to which tboy stand to their former
owners, Mr J. H. Harms of North Carolina,
is certainly that man; and they would do much
better for themselves by heeding the advice of
such a prudent counseller Rian listening to
those who arc in no way qudliped to direct

intelligent portionsj>f our colored population
to read aud well digest its contents;
A Sensible Negho's Speech.?A convention
of negroes was recently held in
Raleigh, N. C. .The best speech during
its sessions was made by Mr. J. II. Harris
a nativo^of Rileigh, and late the delegate
from the league to the Convention at
Cleveland. - "Mr. Harris labored to show
thecoloivd people that their best friends
were the intelligent white class in the
South, aud not the. people at the North.
That their freedom had bc^cn achieved Ky
a law of necessity, as a military measure,
and not by a benevolent crusade of the
Northern army, as many supposed. He
cited the prejudice prevailing at the
Noitb which shut the colored man out
from every avenue of employment while
in the South every branch of industry in
the mechanic arts and the cultivation of
the soil was open to him. There had
never been such exhibitions of diabolical
and murderous hate exhibited towards
the colored race in the history of tlu*
world as were developed in the New York
mobs of 18G3, and in other Northern cities.
It was no place for the colored man
to iook for an asylum. They must remain
where they are an'd work out their
destiny side by side with the white man.
They could not and would not migrate
miles in search of a hotter country?he
liad made the circuit ?>f Mm West. India
Islands and .gone o?er A!Vic> ; but lie had
now returned to his native State ofNoriiCaroliua,
where he intended to live, to j
die and he buried, lie counseled mod- j
elation, kindness, and a patient ami res- j
poetablo demeanor toward the white--, j
I ami the effort to make their .interests
mutual,'showing thenr they (the colored
people) were not their enemies, bat friend.
The past should be buried . in oblivion."'
and the future, only engage their effois to
improve and elcvato themselves. This
' speech was in the happiest vein, and kept
the house in a roar of merriment. Its
effect was most happy upon the* multitude,
and must do much to disabuse
them of many false injurious notions.
1 lie was not in favor of making large tie'
nrands at this time for their rights, but
allow the present misunderstanding aud
consequent ill feeling to cool, when tbc.y
would be sum to receive what thev had a
rigbt to claim- Goil was on their side,
and he saw a glorious future before the
colored race iu the Southern States."
An Editor's Qualifications.
The following is a very respectable epitome
of the necessary qualifications to
be a successful local editor ;
"It is easy enough to lie a local cditoy,
if you think so. but some special qualifications
are necessary to success. For the
enlightenment of young men who have an
itching that way, we,- will enumerate
some of the indispensable virtues, without
which success is impossible. A good
local must combine the. loquacity* of a
magpie with the impudence of the d?1.
Hu must be a walking encyclopedia of
useful knowledge, lie must know how
