We are satisfied that the proposition to amend iho Constitution, so *s to restrict voting for County Senators to those persons owning some taxable property in the State, can be carried before the people, if those persons desirous of securing an honest government will unite in ita ravor. It takes away no rioht from any roan or class of men ; >? l?..ves the control of all the machinery of government in the hands of the people at large, without respect to proper ty, education or color, and only protects property holders fiom plunder and oppression. All classes would be left the right to vote for members of the popu-, lar branch of the Legislature, for Gov* ernor, Lieutenant-Governor, for President and Vice Presideut, for Circuit Solicitors and for County officers of ere ry grade. Why should any reasonable creature object ! We can imagine but one reason. Some might object who want to get into the Senate to rob the people, or others might object who desire to use the Senate for that purpose. It is manifest that only these two classes could make any objection. All honest men would see that it is just and right; for the Senate, although representing property tax paters, would also represent persons of every degree. Tax payers are people interested in "securing life, liberty, and tbe pursuit of happiness," as well as non tax payers, and they would unite in all legir-lation calculated to promote good government and the common welfare; he who owned three or five hundred dollars worth of property, would have the same power as the man who owned millions; but still he would be a voter, and have the .1 l c< . .?. i_:_ luiuugu iii> oeimiur, iu pruicci urn small properiv and family from ruin, now threatened for want of such a constitutional principle. It is no now principle, and is entirely republican in char acter. North Carolina used to prosper with this feature in her Constitution, and, wo learn is going back to it. Massachusetts has it likewise, and every State ought to have it. It is the only thing that will make republican government enduring and just to all classes, and perhaps the only thing that will be a perfect protection against Ku Klux violence, and even a bloody revolution. There must be some security for prop erty, and it is impossible there can be, in this State, any real and permanent recurity of both life and propeity unless you give both the right to protect them* selves by allowing the representation of both in the Legislature. We need not repeat the fact, obvious to all, that the proposed amendment of the Const, tulion will not give the Senato any power to pass a law or to repeal a law now existing, but simplr to prevent honest tax payers from being plundered by all sorts of schemes for unnecessary offices, high sabtrifs and tings of speculators upon the now defenceless proper ty-bolder. The proposal to secure minority rcpre sentation is a good measure and ought to be carried out ; it is favored by all parties, but that thing alone would be wholly insufficient in this State. It would still leave both bianche* of the Legislature entirely in the bands of non-tax payers, if party is kept up on color ns heretofore. The Senate would still be a mere reflex of popular prejudice, and a mere tool of designing partisans, if colored people continue, as we fear they will, to volt always on party grounds, and just as ordered by the carpet bag adventurers. The remedy we advocate would do more than any thing else to bring about mutual good will between all races, and do more to put .1.... - i ? ..

New Organ at the Presbyterian Chun'h. On Siiuday last, 23d in*t., the new O'gan recently purchased by the con- | gregation of the above Church, wai put upon trial, but inasmuch as some of the parts of the instrument had suffered in transportation; the test was not a competent one It will soon be in complete order, when the congregation can better pass judgment upon its merits. _ _ mnm- %* . unI !!?l>ry Goods, ( Th# Imt>? |MU.-It U Mac lifit* ted tti *e furaished with *WT?K mltgp ui Caifitlm*. ~|l jr~| Oq jreM?rd*7 we bad the pleasure of accompanying Capt. J. L. Socthehn through the entire building of the Mansion House. Starting -from the office, we found from the very begin* I niitg ibe repair* that are commenced. The office is to be enlarged, one or two r>f tliA MAaanl t\a?tiiU. !. 1 VI ?MV f* WVH% p?l UIIUUV UtIUg (VHIUYfUt and tbe present statu* of things so remodeled as to make changes that will not only improve it, hut gain the observation and approval of those visiting this popular tlotel. As we proceeded, the carpenter's hammer could be heaid in a din all around ; tbe painter could be seen with his brush and the gas-fitter told with his tools what was going on. Pacing upon (he different floors into the various rooms, everything seemed to be topsy-turvy, undergoing a thorough and complete renovation. Tbe beds were being removed, tbe floors wero subjected to a process of scouring and cleansing, and the walls made to dazzle the ere with whiteness like snow. The door and window-facings began to show a new coat of paint, and the bureaus, chairs, wash stands, dzc., told a tale of having been severely brushed by a skillful hand. New window shades were un. and rarnolinnr -rf ? r s that nevei knew the tramp of feet, lay there, ready to be spread and ticked do an. This was going on in from eeventy-five to one hundred rooms.? Those apartmei.ls overlooking Main Street are to be especially furnished with superior furniture, and all supplied with nioe appurtenances. The Bar and Billiard Room are to be changed and made more accessible from the inner part of the house, and to he still more attractive. The Dining Room, which is large and capacious, capable of accommodating from one hundred and fifty to two hundred guests, it not to be slighted, and will come in for its share of renovation, tables, chairs, dec., re painted. The greater part of the crockery-ware to be used will bo furnished new, and of np j proved quality. The Parlor is also to receire an overhauling, commcnsuate with the other changes. i With these alterations and improve ments, the Mansion House will not fail to maintain the high stand among institutions of its class which it has occupied for the past many years, and continue to be the best above Columbia, in which we all can justly take pride. The fact that Capl. J. L. Soutiisrn is connected with the Mansion House, is a sure guarantee that it will be conducted in a superior manner as well as increase in public favor and esteem. Columbia Hotels. As there will no doubt be a good many persons from this place in attendance upon tbe occasion of the meeting of the stockholders of tbe Greenville and (luliimltia l?uilr/">?<4 In Columbia, on the 27th, we would remind them that the Hotels there are well and handsomely kepi, and conducted by gentlemen who delight to please.

The National Hotel is located near the depot of tho Greenville and Colum bia Railroad, and travelers are not lor.g in finding rest there. Mr. Rob krt J or n Kit, who built the house, is still proprietor, and is assisted by Mr. Pktkk N. Rains, a native of Greenville. but who married and settled in Columbia.

The picture repre sents Dr. F. in the attitude preparatory to deliver a sermon, a Bible beiog open before him and his bands on the pages; the countenance is ex* pressive of those thoughts and feelings which characterize the original on such occasions, and with which we are all so tl. .L limn*!. i iiu Mrusi, in ine execution of the work, seems to bare come as near the original as is possible. Every feature of his noble face is most accu. rately portrayed. Tnis is a master* piece of Mr. Guerry's, and will give him increased reputation as a portrait painter. A number of our citizens having examined this painting, pronounce high encomiums upon Mr. Gl'krrt as an artist. a ? Suicide and Aeoidents. Darky Hawkins shot himself, at bisresidence, 8 miles above Greenville, on Saturday last, and died almost immedi ately. The unfortunate man leaves a wife and six children bereaved by his suicidal act. Mr. Jons Keknan, a well known drayman of this place, fell out of the door steps the other day at Mr Tader's grocery, and was seriously but uot fa? tally hurt. Mr. J. D. Sherman. Deputy U. S.

We have heard the name of the of Ion der mentioned, but at there is some dispute as to identity, we refrain from stating further. Ou Monday a young ne?ro man from Laurens, who was working for Cnpt.

Apropos to the wire walking of last Monday, there is a solemn warning to all of our readers, which is re corded in an exchange.
