CAROLINA SPARTAN.
Tic Kuruik Dsbttie ?Seaalor Kvaiur Speech.
Jiftlr. Kvnns, of South Carolina, occupied
*i alien lion of tho Semite yesterday with
iute of the must ctVoctivs speeches on tho
slavery question, as involved in tho Kansas j
isMia, which have l?een made during the
nftwign. lie said that for thirty years he
had abstained ft\?m engngiug in exciting *
. political CiMilrovcieies; hutho was constrained
in b?a old age to depart from his habit of
giving a silent vote by the ruthless attack
of Mr. Sumner ou South Carolina ami upon
his venerable Colleague. There was a
modesty, earnestness, candor, and common
sense ih;ougi)oU? Mr. Evans's fMUmIus
which will coinmetul it strongly to tha pe (
rosal of all Northern men who are sincerely
desirous to ho coricolly informed as to the
true character of tho iustitutiou of slavery. *
Although bo felt deeply the wrong done by '
Mr. Sumner to his Stato and to his colleague,
be aUstaiuod scrupulously from any- 1
thing Siko bitter personal denunciation. Wo '
shall not undertake to anticipate tho picas- 1
ure which will bo lui uishod by the perusal of I
tiieentiro speech by giving a synopsis; hut (
tlioro was one portion of it which made so 1
stroug an iinpressira cu tho audience, 'hrj'.
the galleries gavo a iosponso which catne
near resultiiiir in their beiuir cleared, and to .
this portion of tho speech wo will cot)line
ourself. v - *
In reply to llio charge of Mr. Sumner, '
that ono of tho features of slavery was that
il tolerated the separation of husband and N
wife, parent and child, Mr. Kvatia said that
lw lived, iu a district whore the mitubor of
sIavos was great?oven greater than that of
llio whites?but no such practice existed,
and public son ti men I nover had toloratod 1
any such inhumanity. Lie went on to de- *
tail ono iucidontof the kind, howover, in 1
which a Northern watt acted a conspicuous '
part. 'Dial Northern man was Mr. Albert N
Sum nor, a brothor of tho Senator from Mas- t
sadiuttlts* Ho had become interested in a %
largo estate of slaves in South Carolina,
which liad boon ordered to bo hold for division
and distribution, tho order requiring
them to t>e sold in families according to the 1
uniform practice, not only in that State, but '
wo believe in nil tbo Southern Stales. 'J'horo 1
was ono family of slm^-a, consisting of ci ght a
?tho husband aud wife and six children; c
tho head of this family had been the favor *1
lie body-servant of his deceased master. To
tho surpriso and indignation of those present
on tho day of sale, tlio wife and her ^
Children were put up and sold without tho
husband and father. It was discovered, .
however, that this was done at the instance "
of Mr. Sumner, who was interested as ono fl
of the distributors, and it was understood ll
that he had procured it with tho viow of "
buying the husband aud extending to him 5
special favors. He did buy him at u red no- 11
cd price. l?nt, soon aftor llio sale, Mr. n
Sumner was found making efforts to sell
him at an advanced price to any ono that
would purchase. No ono would allow him
to consummate his speculation, and lie ti '
i.ully applied to tho gentleman who had
bought tho wife and children. Tliia gonlle
uiHn bought him, but was forced to pay Mr.
Sumner tifty dollar* for Iris bargain. Mr.
Evans gave this incident to illustrnlo the
habits and sentiments of Southern men on
a subject which baa bcon grossly inisro|<rescolcd.
The fact that it was the brother
of Senator Sumner, who had made the
charge against the inhumanity of Southern
men, that sought tlius to speculate on tho
separation of husbaud and father from his
wife and children, gave to llio incident a r
pocuitur higiiiiicniico. Wo trust that, w li.it n
wo have aatd will Cxi'ito an interest amongst
Northern men to read a speech whicli we p
tcjjarJ as amongst the l?cst of the 6?ssioi). il

To carry out what 1 believed to be your wish w
and judgment, approved by my own, I voted with ja|
the entire Delegation from Hotith Carolina, fii-nt for ^
Prcdiil* nt Tierce, nnJ then for Senator Douglas, (y
until tho names of theitu gentlemen were each ^
withdrawn by .the delegations from their respective qj
Slates. Mr. Huchanan being thus left tho only
ouc of lite three original candidates, I did not hmi- w
tute to cast my vote promptly and cordially for him
That Mr. Durhanan's nomination was vJl a ro? m
pudiatioit of President Pierce's or Mr. Douglas' , >(
|?rineiple?, as some of his opponents uhe?c, I think jM
is obvious from several facts. ^
As between Mr. Iluchan.-tn and President Pierce, as
Mr. iluehunau was a citizen of Puntisylvanis} Mr. hr
Pierce a citizen of New l(am|>sliire. The mimeri (J
cat strength of New llamimliiro in tho Convention dc
was live voles; that of Pennsylvania was tweuly- Ki
srosn i;?/<.*. The "surroundings" of Now IIamp dc
shire were Maine, Vermont and Massachusetts, ah, by
including New Hampshire, having s vote of l:ien- in
/ysix; tlie hmrfuun4i4gs" of Pennsylvania were wi
New Yoik, Ohio, Virginia and Maryland, having in
together a vote of ouc hundred and eight. Again; 1)
New Hampshire was urging the ?<* election of her ni
son, aud in that encountered all the opposition ot in
tho "one term" idea, which not many years back ill
alinoul became a part of the Domocrttlic orewn ? D
many believing that the policy of re-electing was re
calculated to make Presidents inore solicitous to *c it:
euro a second term than to administer the fust term ve
faithfully. Oil the other li.uid, Pennsylvania was to
urging the clainti of a son who uol only was never co
President, but who \v:is the citizen of a State from th
whom a President had never been elioson, not- its
withstanding ulin w.i'i "mo of tho "Old Thirteen," th

clrtimn and President IVrcc, as representatives o) K'
different opinion*, so much as it was between Now M
I lump.biro wild Pcnnsylvnnin. The result was that wl
most natural under the circumstances. lv?|>eci;tlly ?<

Iivro we tin. I resolutions, unanimously adopted, enn-Hiny
the administration of President lhrcc, an?l
edging the Democratic party to tin* maintenance
lliu rights of the South; which I liter resolutions
i?c been formally and unqualifiedly endorsed by
r. liucliaivin. And in relation to the unaiiimiwltli
wltich those resolutions wore adopt.*.I, it ia
it right I should my, that though I went there
minced in the itiain of the soundness of the party
tef.ronoo to our peculiar institutions, I was
vertbefcs* agreeably surprised to tind that among
odelegatus front all quarters of the North otto of
e prominent ideas was, that Black IO]>uJ>lu-utint
must he nut -l-finn, ajul peace given to the
nnlry hy the protection and enforeeiiient of the
nstitutional rights of every section. I to<ik partieu
r pains to ascertain the informal opinions of the
ortliern Democracy. I went, from a sense of du,
every night during the silting of the CoOvcnin,
to the mass inoetiugs of tho Democracy of
neinnali. I wauled to nee what kind of speeches
L*re nitido before tho 'rank nnd file' of the North 11
Democracy?1 wanted -to son whether Doinoalic
leaders spike tho sentiment of Democratic
wms. At tlnse meeting* I heard speakers of
inn. client, New York, Pran-iylrsn.n, Delaware,
liana and i'alifnruin denounce Kremnilistn and
tiohtioniain in as fierce and -unincufUircd terms
I ever heard in South Carolina. There, too, I
-ard speakers of Virginia, Kenttioky, Tennessee,
eorgia and Missouri, draw forth thunder* of
lafcning np|4aii?c a* they painted tlio wrong which
recsoilihtn seeks to itilhcl outfit* South, and tlio
termination of the Southern |x-nplc to stand fast
' their rights to their slave property. No man,
my opinion, Could have attended those meetings,
liatovcr might have beer, his opposition to 1 >< ncraey,
without being convinced, that whatever
omocracy might be, it U the name in J'etinsylvaa
a* in V.rgima, in Indiana :is in Georgia, and
Connecticut as ih Missouri. I ni iy say also,
atb.-iug necessarily thrown much in tlio way of
etnoemts of thu North in tho railroad cars, in
a-ling room1, an I in hotels, and under eireumtii1
'c.s to be obliged to hear much of their eon
rsalioll among tlictn*ejvas, I testify with pleasure
the invariable nationality that charaelcrized their
i<iH3.iiKMi, aim inn uiicumpriiniisiii^ hostility
cy evinced biwanU Illick Kopublieai.isiii in all
phases. I do n%#t hesitate i<? say, that wlierevor
c 1 h-ii>'?cratio Uag shall lie unfurled in the com
g canvass, whether in Mainour Texas, in Virgin
or Oregon, tlicre will l>o found (hose who Wonid

r. iiiiehanan, "allay tho dangerous excitement

u tlii' bill authorizing the pimple ?>l Oregon
to lor in constitution and Statu GuwrnuMnt preparatory
to adinssiou into the Union, viz: requiring
I ho territory to have a imputation equal to the representative
ratio established nudcr tiio census of
185'h The bill provides that all while male inhabitant*
21 years old shall be registered as legal voters.
It nlxo provides that Kan*a* shall Is: admitted into
the Union as a Stale without (Inlay.. As soon a*
the census shall he taken, and it shall be ascertained
who are the real inhabitants of Kansas, they
shall proceed forthwith to the election of delegates
to a eouventloo to form a constitution, preparatory
to their admission into the Union as a Slate. This
election he would liavo take plaoo on the first Tuesday
its N?*?nber, for that would give suilivicut
time. It would allow four months' residence to the
inhabitants, and would lie n day when the |>eop!o
of the dilVeieiit States of the Union would b - prevented,
in caiiMcqueiico of being occupied iu their
own (Statu with the Prcsi hut'ull election, from even
attempting to defeat the real wishes of tli people of
Kansas, by interfering with their election.
This gave rise to a debate, wliieh was not Concluded
when the committee rose.
The correspondent of tile (Baltimore (Sun, on the
25th,says:
"The bill preparatory to the admission of Oregon
into the Union will probably pti*u bntli Mouses at
this session. Hut the notion of the Senate on this
bill may depend u|*iii the passage of so.no one of
the propositions in rclsluui to Kansas, now before
that body," or soon to be introduced there. If the
Ilottse should insist upon the .-uliiinsioii of Kansas
with the Topeka constitution it may defeat the passage
ef the Oivgon bill."
Mr. Tombs gave notice of his intention to introduce
a bill to take the census of Kamas in order
to protect the omrciso of the elective franchise iu
ilie territory, and provide for calling a convention
to form a constitution preparatory to admiabioii into
the L'uioii.

THE PLJTFWM-m'ITTBt KOVBKKIQITf.
A* lb* Caroline Timr* ha* discredited ill* PUtfur
in of the Utc Oucinmii Courvntioti on ibo inter
inlnlHtii of the clause In r*g?rj to B*iuatter Borwvignty,
wo commend in il" alien lion the following
examination </f this wltjrcl by lb* W*eht*gtoii
AWUkm AuUional Era. From llti* H eoetn* thai
abolition in wllnftwi tlio I loinocriioy cxUngnivli the
claim of jkjwot in a Territory lo Irgiahit* o*cr 4avery
aulcrior to the formation of a ronatilutio*
prt-|>aniiory to admission m a Hi ile. VVo arc wiry
lliat there is such headinets* in our neighbor, and
tlut be will not ere what is palpable to all othcra.
The remarks aro predicated on fbo prItM-ipk* of
thu Nebraska Bill:
It will bo rocolloclcd that, over sinco the
passngo of thai bill, tho Northern and
Southern wings of tho Democracy have taken
ojiposilo views of iu "principles"?tlio
former contending that they might all be
summed up in tlio proposition, That the
People of a Territory have the right to determine
their own domestic institution*, and
therefore to exclude or allow slavery: the
latter, insisting that they might ail lio ornbraccd
in tho proposition, That neither
Congress, nor tho "People of a Torntory, has
any right to interfere, for the exclusion of
slavery therefrom, or its prohibition therein.
In other words. Northern Democrats assorted
tiio doctrino of Non-Inleff?rcnce by Congress,
but tlio right of Interference by the
People of tho Territory?while tho Southern
asserted non-interference both by Con
gioR* and the People.
Tho Richmond (Virginia) Enqiiircr, dis
cussing tho question, some timo tho
meeting of tfio Convention, said that this
dilVoroncc of opinion was radical, and must
bo settled?and that tho Convention must
define tho "principles" of the Nebraska Bill,
according lo the Southern doctrine. Uomember,
ibis was the distinct question submitted
for consideration to the Cominiltoe
on a Platform. Now, let us see how it has
been decided.
"I. Tho American Democracy recognise and
adopt the principle* contained in flic organic law*
i-unblu>biu;r th,. Territories of k ansae mid Ntbiaa- '
