President Porter was then conducted to the
hair, and addressed lbs Convention eubstantiallv
as follows.
OSSTLBHSS or TDK COXTKMTIOX : I thank
you for the honor oonferred upon me. I am
glad to see around me so many of the good
men and true, to whom South Carolina in her
better days was glad to confide her honor, and
who are now as faithful as they ever hnvo
been. My only regret is, that the occasion is
not more happy and pleasant. Torehuke corruption
in high places, and to be obliged to
take measures te save ourselves from irretrievable
ruin, is a duty by no moans pleasant. As
it baa been placed upon us, let us discharge it
manfully and with fidelity. The fundamental
law of the State and the United States secures
to tba people tbo right to assemble peaceably,
and to seek by all lawful means redress for
thsir grievances. We aro assembled in such
a manner and for aurb a purpose. It is admitted
by fair-minded men of all parties that
there are great publio grievances, and that by
their presonce, there has been called Into exis'cnco
each a Convention as tbis?a Conven.
tion unprecedented in all tbo btstory or tijo
State? a ConTontion to secure to ourselves a
proper share in representative government.?
We hare no legislative power ; we are simply
an advisory body ; bat wo can inquire and in*
estigate ; we can collect and embody investigation
; we can recommend to the people, who
have conferred upon us this trust, such measure
as we deem necessary for their socurity in
the future. Let there be fairm s and justice.
If we "nothing extenuate," let us set down
naught in malice. The first great wrong is
the increase in the putdic debt?an extraordinary
increase, as is admitted on all bunds.
The people of the Stato are entitled to know
and must know the amount of that debt. Tbey
must know- the aetualas well as the oontingont
liability of the State of South Carolina. That
the application of the public money have been
extravagant, wild and profligate, admit o! no
doubt, it is without question and, perhaps,
never in tbo history of a people was there an
instance where this recklessness and profligacy
was more shamelessly apparent. Corruption
vaunts i?self in the light of day, aud assumes
to itself the garb of honesty. If these
things are not checked and robufied, tbey will
result not ooly in demoralisation, but in bankruptcy
and ruin. The credit of the Sate is
dearer to none tban it is to us. It has been
our traditional policy to keep and hold the
public credit, not only unquestioned, but unsuspected.
Wo mean not repudiation, but wo
do mean openly and in tbo moat solemn manner,
to give notice that the public credit of
South Carolina bus been strained' to the most
extreme point, and that whatever obligations
flnancierr take, they must tuke tnem at their
own peril. Let me admonish you to be prndent
and wise ; to avoid party politics. For
every fair minded man who is willing to put
bis seal of disapproval on corruption, or is
willing to go with us in correcting abuses, we
have a welcoming hand. Those men are our
friends, and should be welcomed to our ranks.
The late war loft this people almost itnpoverisbed.
Upon the issue ot the war, one of the
most valuable species of property?more than
one-half of what was left to the people?was
trickco out at a blow. Nevor were there a
people on the face of tbo oarlb who wcro nioro
untitled to sympathy than the people ol South
Garoliua. *n the name of the people, tnuob
abused, almost ruined, I call upon you to
bring to your aid your noblest efforts at this
time.

ncction can and witl be effected by the quiet
influence of an enlightened public opiniun.
Iteiolvrd, That the cxigoncics of tbo times

Mr W. K. Oieenfield offered the follow*
ing. which was referred to the Executive
Committee :
Wuereae, a joint committee of the Sen

been appointed for the put pose ot invert**
gating IrreguJnrlliai It a esrtain commit!e*

that a larger amount hit been drawn from

for; tbnefore,
littolved, That th? Kxseutivs Commit toe
be instructed to itqiire into th* matter,
with a view of determining what aetioa, if
any, should he taken in the matter.
The Committee to whom was referred
the question of the expendieney of the cumulative
system of voting, or such system
at will protect the rhdila of minoritiea, ash
leave to make the following report:
The means of protecting ths rights of minorities,
In representative forma of government,
has for a long porlod engaged tb* attention
of tbe tbongbtful minds. Ia Karops,
as well as in this country, tbis question bas
boss fully discussed, and a satisfactory solution
anxiously sougbt. Ho dsfeetiv* is the
system of mere majority rule?so flagrant are
the abuses to wbieb it is liable, that the oeosaslty
for its modifleation strikes with fores
every impartial observer, ft is obvious that
ths need's of good government require that
some effective organism ba dsvlssd for the
protection of minorities. Tour eommlttoe
deem it anneeesssry to sator wpoa aa analysis
of the ssrsral sebaceae ot proportional representation
that her* hoen suggested. Koough
to say that, in our judgment, the plan of eumutative
voting hast accomplishes tbe sad la
view?best makes representation ao-extens iv#
with ths whole WoJy of electors. This plea
obtains, wherever there Is mors tbaa on# officer
to be elected. It givee the elector ae
many votes as there are persons to be ehoeea,
| and allow* bin to bat tow hit rotoi upon the
| whole nntnbar, or to enmnlato than apoa up

*Mhstn npiwauU? of the e^ortij, sor

is that the oesieletiee lyitea aoosros tbore?|k
sod gonorsl representation of ell the in
terests le tips political body. To illustrate the
systems Uotlor tbo preeeet eloetoral system
of tbo State, ia a community of 1H rotors,
Ml elect representative!?say four?for tbo
entire body. That U, oat of 200 rotors, 10!
Impose their representatives apes tbo 09.
Tbo 00 bare no roprrsontatiroa?are virtually
disfranchised Now, oador the operation o!
tbo (emulative system of voting, assessing
that, ia tbo tamo community, tbo 300 are
equally divided politically, the rtprtMoUtivn
would be equally divided. It way be matbastatically
stated that: 1.000 voters ; 600 voter*
:: Oil. Under the operattoo of such a system,
eaob party weald of necessity calculate
He strength te advenes, and seek to elect only
the number proportionate te its nnnMvieal
strength. For instance, in a certain community,
let oe assume that there are \000 Democrats
and O.uOO Republican voters, and that
there are three persons to be elected. The
6,000 Democrats have 16,000 votes. The 9,060
Repn Means have 27,000 votes. If the Democrats
were to attempt to elect all three representatives,
they oould give each only 6,000
votes, which would result in their securing no
representative, as the Republicans, being able
to give each of their candidates 9,000 votes,
would elect them all. On the oth?r hand, if
the Republicans were to attempt to eleot all
tbeir representatives, they could give each only
9.000 votes, whieh would result in the defeat
of one, as the Democrats could cumulate
their 16,000 upon one candidate, end thus
elect bitn. The effect would be tbatcaoh party
would, of necessity, oumubtte its strength
and there would reswlt e proportional representation.
In the case stated, mc #,o jo Democrats
would secure one representative, end
9,000 Republicans two representatives.
This is thaprinoiplc of proportional representation,
by means ot .be cumulative system.
Tour committee, desiring to confine themselves
to general propositions, propose to refrain
from entering further into details.
