RzifT SUA OR EVAlIS TO THE oErECE b
-The speeh orSenator Evani, of Sguth Caro
naI rep- he late attack of Senator Sum
WsfofMassachusetts, upon this State, has been t
published, but Its length does. not permit us to
present itto our readers entire.
,,fr. Evans reviews the question presented by
the Nelbaska-Kansas bill, and the necessity of
t6e territorito the South; though, as he says:
" The South-the'slave States-are not pro
pagandists; -they are content with their institu
tions as they -are; they are content with that
form of civilization which exists amongst them;
theydesire not to extend it to New England, or
to any other portion of the United States, who
donot choose to receive it." ie urges, on this
pont, " whenever you have sixty States in this
Uni, three-fourths of them can alter the Con
stitution, and abolish slavery everywhere. You
have-thirty-one now; you want only twenty.
nIne. Where are they to come from Kansas
and Nebraska can make six; New Mexico will
make-half as many; California may be well di
vded into three States; and there is no doubt
of the fact, I venture to say, that within the
next forty or fifty years, it will be accomplished.'
Upon the question of slavery in the abstract,
weiud-the following: C
Mr. President, I now propose to submit some
renarks on this hated sibject of slavery. Sir,
I am not frightened by a name. A wise legis
Istor looks to things.as they are; and lie who
would, legislate for. this great Republic must
look to it as it is. A state of things exist here
which,pehaps, exist nowhere else; but it is here,
and you must deal with it as a wise honest man
should. I do not mean in any remarks which 1
itil.make to. reproach Massachusetts, or any
other State or section of the world, on the sub
jeet of the slave trade. It is true that, at least
so far as South Carolina is concerned, we par
-tieipate&very little in IL Some few ships were
fitted out in Charleston, but I doubt if a native
of the State ever had any participation in it. .
Bit, sir, I reproach nobody for it. At that
period in the history of the world, it was thought
rightL There was boncurrent testimony of the
civlized world, that, to capture the wild savage -
of Africa, and reduco him to a state of subjec
tidn,-to feed and clothe him, and christianize him,
was no wrong! -I say, therefore, that I reproach
amian for it. We followed only the popular
sentiment'which prevailed in the world. But,
* sir, I thaink we have a right to complain. and it
1. the only complaint on this subject I have to
-make,-that if others have gone before us, if we
han. been otitaripped in finding ont that this sys
tem was wrong, those persona who have been
thusfortunate will let us alone until we ourselves
hBoresuficienitlyjenlightened to concur in their
o: piion This, we think, we. have: the right to
ask ;-this is all we do ask.
I preipose t'o enter intobio ethnological-in'quiry
about the unity of the-races. -My .wn opimion,
m.own juzagment is, ihat we ar, allone-prob.
-*,ydscended from a common ancestor ; but
tats very immaterial. We find men dlifferent
-b1tie face-of the' earth-as different as they
firntd beif sliey sere not Aescended from a
dommon ancestor; but in relation to the African,
no azn in this House, and no man out of it, can
say that-there is any corner of this earth upon
which the African race are -as well off, as -well
providid for, with more of the elemoents .of hap
piness, than.in the 'slave pert of these United
8tatee. I assert it without the fear of contra
dictiotr. 'I know not from whence it has come;
but this I-know, that the Africans were slaves in
the days of the Pharaohs; that nine out of ten
of-them are slaves in their native land; and that
in no country of which I am aware are they re
ceived upon an equality with the white race.
In confirmation of the fact which I have just
stated, that nino out of ten of them are slaves
in their own country, I beg leave to refer to an
incident in Park's travels in Africa. In the year
1'796, after haviog visited the interior, when hei
returned. to the coast of Senegal, finding no
vessei~bound for Europe, he, took passage in a
slave ship bound for Charleston. In that ship
there 'were-one hundred and sixty Africans.I
Having been a year in their coantry, ho under
stood their lanauage, and wtas able to converse
with them. *e found that, of the whole one
- hundred an# sixty, only four had been born free.
The ret were ulaves. If any man desires to
know what is the state of slavery in Africa, let
him riad Park,'and Lander, and the recent book
of .Capt. Canot.
-. Many of them at the South are intelligent, al-.
4hough they have not much mental culture
certainly very little that is derived, from book.
*They'are an improving people-mproving in
*Iptelligenceand in morals. I have no doubt thatC
the time will come wihen God will woric out his
own problem in relationi to Africa. Carlyle says,
I think with some truth, that all the great events
in-the history of man have geflerally been pro
dedby a-single individual, or by but very few,;
that the great reformation in religion was pro
duced by. Luther; that Cromwell and his aso
Ta thie nations of mankind, in relation to civil
. nd.religious-liberty; that a new impetus was
given to this ball by the American Revolution,
of which Washington was the- chosen instro.
ment-of Providence to accomplish.
Sir, for aught-I know, it may be that, in the
providence of God, in his own proper time, aY
d eliverance wilL-be worked out for this race. At
present they' sid not fit for .it, but they are going ~
on in improvement, both mentally and morally.
-Of one thing I am sure-when that time arrives,
some more fit instrument will p~e -used thani
those who have now thrust themselves into this
-buuiness, prematurely-and in a manner wI olly 0
unled for-. I doubt very much whether Par- a
son'Beecher will be a chosen instrument' in the
hands of God for the piurpose of effecting this a
-r sany other great and beneficial change in the
affirs of mankind.
Sir~as I said before, I am not frightened biy
nin. .I am not alarmed by the fear that I r:
hbabe held up in some future 4th of July_
speech, or some colliege oration, or in the col- r
emps of .some faithy newspaper, as the advocate r
of slavery. That has no. terrors for me. I
stand here to* legislate for this country as it is. tl
Ifgthe-inititution of slavery be an evil, to whom t

ithoigh im~incipation has been goinz on, -and
gitives have been flying to the free'States, the
nsus shows that, in the slave States, the slave
)pulation has increased infinitely beyond the
crease of the free people of color, with all
ese appiendages, in the free States. If you
o to the records or pauperism and poverty,
hat do you find? You finsd that he is a being
finitely more degraded than the white man.
11850, in the State of Massachusetts, -.with a
palatio- of over 900.000 white inhabitants,
ere were 389 conviets in her- penitenti-ries,
d 47 black convicts out of a negro population
f 9.000. In Connecticut, there were 146 white
d 30 black convicts in her penitentiary. In
ew York, you find the sam- disproportion.
The result is, that in Massachusetts there is
white convict out of .every 3,522 whites. and
black convict for every 262 negroes. In New
rk, there is 1 white convict in 2.056, and 1
lack convict in 142. In Virginia, there is I
hite convict in 5,570, and 1 black convict in
1,600. I do not suppose that these figures
resent exactly a correct statement in relation
) Virginia, for I suppose the slaves there are
Ot punished in such a way as to exhibit in pri
on returns the full result of crime. I presume
ley are punished, as in South Carolina, in some
mmary way, of which no special record is
ept; but, so far as Massachusetts and New
ork are concerned, the question is settled be.
ond all controversy.
The rapid increase of population in the ordi
.try way is looked upon by all writers as one
7 the strongest evidences of the bodily comfort,
t least, of the subjects of it. Crime and pau.
erism are the fruits, not of comfort and inde.
endence, but of want and destitution. The
nt, that in Massachusetts there is 1 white con.
iet out of 2,522, and I black convict out of
68, exhibits a state, of things showing, beyond
11 question, that in those regions of boasted
reedom, the black man is in a sad condition.
I am sorry, sir, that necessity compels me to
peak of the absent Senator from Massachusetts.
do not intend to use his own language, or to
oe unmindful of what is due to myself, but I
ae to speak of its facts. What could be the
bject of the wondrous tirade which we heard
rom him about freedom? Does he mean that,
a the state of things which exists in this coun.
ry, he thinks it desirable to turn loose three
nillions of Africans? If lie does, he means
hat tew people beside himself-few consider.
te people-would suppose to be practicable.
The Senator from Massachusetts [Mr. Wilson]
rho is present, has defined his position. H
iselaims any right to interfere with slavery it
he States. It is a fair inference, as I have al
'eady remarked, that, though he is now restrain
Ad by the Constitution, he would do it if li
tad the power, but in that I may do him injus
ice. The other Senator from Massachusett?
Mr. Sumner) has never, I believe, defined hi
osition on this point lie has never said-ir
act, the contrary is to be inferred-that thi
3onstittion affords us any guarantee. I sup
pose, then, (to borrow a manufacturer's term,,
hat he belongs to that stripe of the anti-slaver)
party, who deny that the Constitution has guar
ntied slavery, and who contend that Congres
sas'the power to abolish it, and is in duty bount
o exercise the power as soon as it can.
This is the doctrine of Garrison, and of soma
papers which are sent~to me every day-among
he rest, one called the Radical Abelitionist. I:
sch be the Senator's view4s, I can only say thae
hy are utterly impracticable. I shall no
waste the time otf the Senate in discussing such
scheme. if it is to be done on payment o
h v'alue of the slaves, 81,000,000.000 will ino
ay for them; If they are to be e'mancipatec
andesent to Africa, that sum will not pay tha

so sagacity .to see wvhat will be the r.esult.
Sir, between the white man, North and South
and the black man, there is a deep, an impassa
ble gulf. It is as. manifest alt the North as al
he South. In 1847, 1 travelled through Nesi
Bngland and New York. I. was ten days ir
Boston, and three weeks in New York. During
1l that time, I never saw a negro at work. Il
5 well known there that a white man will niol
ork with him. ~This, with some people, is the
bjection to allowing slaves -to go to Kansas
rhtey say the wrhile man will not wyork with tha
iegro. If there be any man who, in his senses
elieves that. the negro's conditi'n wvould ba
ettered by emancipastion now, I have never
net him, unless he be one of those whom
ive seen and heard on this floor. I need nol1
tay, what is obvious to every body, who knowi
anything about the matter, that his conditior
would be intinitely worse.
If these declamations about freedom, and
hese commiserations for the poor negro's con.
ition, have any meaning-if they are to result
n anything, I should suppose they would result
a something to better his condition. Now, will
is condition be bettered ? No man, I think,
ill rise here in his place and -say that it will.
From the Gazette and Advocate.
TO TEE PEOPLE OF SOUTH CAROLINA.
Up to this time since my return from Kansas,
have labored zealously, publicly and privately,
a secure aid for the South Carolina Emigrants
that territory. So far, I have succeeded well
sarousing a proper feeling upon the subject,
therever I have been privileged to address my
srmer fellow citizens, and I may reasonably
duhate upon receiving a fair contribution of
ten and money. But the active duties of caimp
fe, and t~he fatigue of traveling and speaking
sr the last ten weeks, has well-nigh exhausted
c. It will be impossible for me therefore, to
take the tour of the Strate during thu brief time
lotted for my visit, and I sincerely hope that
e people of en.:h District will cont~sibute for
e relief of their Carolina friends in Kansas, as
'eely and fully, as though addressed in public
ssembly. All moneys contributed for their
enefit, can reach me by being deposited in any
fthe Columbia Banks, to my order. A word
iore in their behalf. South Carolina has sent

y knew what our Emigrants have suffered

A Beet and an Onion.
Mr. J.R)LY MoBiEY will please accept Our thanks
for that seven-pound beet and that fine yellow onion,
sent in yesterday. Mr. M. is almost the only good
sotil who seems to have imagined this season that we
prize fine vegetables.
COTTON PODS.
We acknowledge a capital specimen of cotton pods,
from Mr. WooD, overseer for Capt -EUGENE BURT.
They are quite large and indicate conaiderable for
wardness of the crop in the locality where they grew.
U. S. APPOINTMENT.
H. T. WRTHIT, Esqr., has been appointed U. S.
Deputy Marshal for Edgefield District, and is com
missioned accordingly. The post is worth nearly
two thousand dollars every tenth year-rather a sine
cure at other times.
MILLS BURNED.
We are sorry to state that the Grist and Saw Mills
of Mr. ALLEN FRANKLIN, were destroyed by fire
within the last week. A thrasher and fan, with some
300 bushels of grain, several barrels of flour and 20,
000 feet of lumber were lost at the same time. The
Ios is estimated at near $3,000. The fire was entire
ly accidental.
INFORMATION WANTED.
We are requested to make inqniry for one ELrZA
BETH DAWsUN, an insane woman, who left her home
on the 29th ult., and is supposed to be wandering
about the District somewhere.
Should any one see her, they will relieve a discon
solate family by detaining her and addressing a line
to her daughter, MARY DoaN, at Meeting Street Post
Office, S. C.
THE EDGEFIELD BAR.
We were mistaken In supposing that Mr. BELLTN
oza, of Columbia, contemplates locating at this place.
He was in attendance at Court, having in charge a
case of some importance, but has, we are informed, no
thought of changing his residence from Columbia.
NOT GUILTY.
The negro who killed Mr. SvvaoN, which unfor
tunate circumstance we mentioned several weeks ago,
has since been tried for murder and is acquitted. Mr.
McGoWAN, of Abbeville, appeared for the prisoner.

TUCKER'S A3tIBiOTYPES.
An opportunity is now afforded the people hereabouts
to obtain those brilllantfac-similes of the human face
divine known as ambrotypes. They are a decided
improvement upon Daguerre's notions. Look over al
the advertisement page and you will see that
"Ambrotype Tucker's come to town."
MISS BRENAN.
Our community has much reason to admire thi
lady. She has always been so kindly disposed to ac
commodate Edgefield in the very uncommon article
of sweet singing, and has always striven so earnestly
to please her Edgefieli audiences, that it would be
strange if they were not sensible to her rare combina
tion of goodness and proficiency. On the occasion el
her late concerts, this feeling of partiality was mani.
fested in a manner at once creditable to our citizent
and honorable to their hearts. Her sludiences wort
large and appreciative; and her desire to please then
proportionally enthusiastic. On the second evening es
pecially, when she was suffering from a sudden aflee
tion of the throat, and really sang with such-pain ai
not only to afflict herself, but to depress her associatet
in the green room; it was pleasing to witnessathe man,
ner in which she would now and then rise above hci
malady and warble like any unsuffering bird. And
it was equally gratifying to mark the sympathetic ap
plause which followed every such flight. .Observing
this, we could but.remark'within ourself-" Let thett
say.what they will of old Edgefield, ahe is still the
home' of all honorable instincts."' And we woukc
here add-" Long may it be e'er cold indifferrence t<
the beauttful, and callous sneers at all efhorts to im
prove, shall- supersede-amongst us those soul-impulset
which ring of a better and parer day."
INDEPENDENCE WEEK.
No regular celebration, no sound of trump and drun
and fife, no oration, no firing of canon marked wvitil
us the week of our national anniversary just past
And yet it was not. an entifely neglected occasion
Several barbecues and pic-nics were had in the im
mediate vicinity which are said to have passed of
well, one of thein at least, winding up with the merry
dance in the true old Virginia style. Miss BRENNiar
concerts aided also in imparting amrmation and plea'
sure to the week. Many personis were drawn to out
village by them, and for several days the town waz
alive. The dance that was anticipated for Indepen
dence night failed to come off; from some cause ol
which we are not aware. Take all things together,
thotugh, and the week wvas a pleasantly cheerful one
shoning that although 4th-of-.July speeches may be
no longer relishted by our community, 4th-of-July fur
is still appreciated as in the days of yore.

A number of names are already down: and others are

Thespian part of the matter at once. Let the scenery
be put up and the parts given out immediately. The
sooner a beginning is made the better. The stage al.
ready standing in Masonic Hall will answer for the
present. A carpet and a few curtains added, and we
might begin at once. Our friend of the Jaformer:,
having had experience in thts sort of thing, isthte right
man to lead ufi, and we hope he will do so. Could
not a play and a farce be gotten ready by the sale-day
in August1? If so, why not go to work and prepare to
act them on the night of that dayi
ARRESTED.
A man, calling himself SAUEL. LONG, was arrested
and brought to the jail of this District, on suspicion,
some week or so since. He is still lodged in jail
awaiting further developments;~ aithotugh as yet there
seems'to be no very cleair case made out against him.
He was first suspected from offering to sell a very
fine horse, in several parts of the <district, at quite a
reduced price. Afterwards, we are informed, he at
tempted to induce a negro-woman. to go off with him
to Mississippi. This it was that determined a party
of gentlemen, on the Ridge,. to arrest him. . In doing
so, they acted, luckily, with great care and promptness,
one of them presenting a pistol at him before he be
cafb aware of their intentions, while the click of
several double-barrelI guns told him at the same time
that resistance was useless. Upon examining the
prisoner's person, afler he had been given over to the
jailor, it was found that he was armed 'with a very
large and superior Colt's Repeater, and had as many
as 112 balls quilted up and tied around his ankle.
He had also, in a bag around his waist, about 8360,
mostly in gold. The horse he rode is a large, fine
looking bay, and is valued, by good judges, at $200.
n stature this man is rather short, not measuring
more than 5 feet 8 inches in hteigh t. He is stout and
well set, with dark complexton, dark hair and dark
eyes. He has also, a black beard an'd his race has
that whitish appearance which a face recently shorn
of whiskers usually has. We mention this, because
we see a proclamation for a murderer by the Governor
of Georgia, which describes just such a man as this,
and with the last named peculiarity specified.
THURSDAY'S CONCERT.
Owing to some unforeseen difficulties, this concert
did hot come up to the notch of excellence intended
by its projectors. Several crosses and hinderances,
not necessary to be mentioned now, prevented the
performance of two pieces and materially Interfered
with the correct rendering of others. The attendance
was, however, a brilliant one for a village ; and we
take pleasure in stating that we have forwarded owe
hundred dollars, amount of proceeds of the evening,
after paying expenses, to the Ladies' Calh-oun Mono

majority of three votes, that the fund be thus applied.

AR. EDITOR: On Tuesday evening the 1st inst
large and respectable audience were assembled a
i Male Academy, to witness the performances c

The audience were first entertained by the intr<

asterly and creditable manner, the respectin
laims, or rather merits, of the Poet, Statesman an
arrior to the first place in history, or as havin

Ie discussion was quite animated and interesting
d reflected the greatest credit upon the youn

cularly upon their young, accomplished and ta

After the conclusion of the addresses, the aud
mco were diverted by the representation of sever.
musing dialogues and farces, during the enactic
f which the young actors were frequently inte
upted by tumultous bursts of applause.
It must not be omitted that the fairer sex, delic
i vile, were present, and graced the occasic
ith their smiles. Certainly the young orato
ould not fail to have been inspired, when at ti
eight of their declamation, they met the beamir
lance of some fair lassie rivited upon them, a:
ach onecould but repeat to himself
" How throbs the pulse when first we view,
The eye that rolls in glassy blue,
Or sparkles black, or mildly throws
A beam from under hazel brows."
It is evident, -if the exercises of Tuesday last a
be taken as a riterion, that. the Trustees ha

WAsINmoTON, July 1.-The Senale to-day al
adopted resolutions calling on the President for at
information relative to the proclamation of mar- l
tial law and the arrest of the judge of the dis- ti
trict. court of Washington Territory by Gover- de
nor Stephens. qc
Mr. Collamer, from the Committee on Terri. sh
tories, submitted the minority report of the Kan
sas question, which was read and ordered to be du
printed. tr.
Mr. Thompson, of Kentucky, spoke somewhat ch
in favor of the bill reported by Judge Douglas, of
yesterday. The following is the substance of dr
the bill. fo
it provides for the appointment of five com- en
missi'oners, to be selected from different sections d
of the Union, to represent fairly all political Li
parties. They shall take a census of all the A
legal votes in the Territery, and make a fair
apportionment of delegates to be elected in each m
,t county to assemble aid make a constitution and W
, State government. When the appointment of
shall have been thus made, the commissioners tI
are to remain in session every day. excepting al
Sunday, at places most convenient to Lhe in- a'
habitants of the Territory, to hear all complaints, ril
e examine witnesses, and correct all errors in the
said list of voters, which shall be previously m
printed and circulated through the Territory, m
and posted in at least three of the most public tI
places in each voting precinct in each cou nty. a
So soon as all errors shall have thus been
g corrected in said lists, the commissioners are
require d to cause lists of the legal voters to be
printed, and copies furnished to each judge of
election,,to be put up at th places of voting,
and circulated throughout every country in the
territory before the day of election. No person
shall be allowed to vote whose name does not
n appear as a legal voter. The election for dele
gates to take place on the day of the Prosiden- a
tial election, and the convention to assemble oi 0
the first Mondriy in December, to decide, first,
whether it be expedient for Kansas to come into e
the Union at that time, and, if so decided, pro- A
s ceed to form a constitution and State govern
ment, which shall be republican, in form, and
g admitted on an equal footing with the origial n
d States. st
The bill provides that no law shall be of force ti
or enforced in the Territory, infringing the liber- a
ty of speech, or the liberty of the press, or the m
right of the people to bear arms, &e. Also, for h
punishing illegal voting, or fraud, or violence at
ihe election, and to uso the militry force for
e that purpose. The main points is, 4 the present w
e inhabitauts shall decide all points in di-pute in
sKansas, at a fair election, without fraud or vio
lence, or rany- other improper influene". All
male white inhabitants over the age of twenty
one years to be allowed to vote, if residing in
the countryand Territory three months previous
to thme day of election, aind no other test is to be
required; no oath to support the fugitive slave
is-law or any other law, debr any other condittona
swhatsoever. d
Messrs. BIigler 'and Hale opposed it.
Mr. Adams moved to-amend the bill by strik-'
ing out -that parL which .givss suQferage-to all- d
persons who shall havelfiled a delaration of their
intention to become eitiz'e'ns ofh'thUited States,
in.compliance with the natoralization larws..
~Mr. Crittenden favored the amendmen. Mr. '
~Wilson moved to strike out all after 'the enact- ~
ting clause and inert the .delaration -'that'all -'
ethe laws of the Legislature of Kansas were
.null and void. - 'J.
A long debate then ensued, which was con- t
tinued until a late hour, when the bill as amen- I
~ded by Mr. Adams wastpassed by a vote ofa
~2to 17.
eIn the House of Representatives Mr. Barclay
moved a re-consideration of thie vote of y'ester
(ay, laying the bill for the admisesion of Kanass
upon the table.
Mr. Houston moved to lay the motion upon a
rthe table. Business, however, was then sus
pended to hear the reading of' the report of the
Kansas Committee.
The report shows that as soon as the bill tob
organize thme Territory of Kansas was passed, it y
lrge number of the citizens of' Missouri went
Sinto the Territory, and held squatter meetimgs,t
pased resolutions denounteing abolitionism, and '
edeclaring that slavery existed therein. - cl
rIn the autumn of 1854, a secret political b
,.society, called the Blue Lodge, *as formed-the rj
yplan otf operations, oaths, etc., of which are given t
by the report. The Lodge controlled thte sub- n
sequent movements and invasions on the part of n
ISthe Missourians.
rAt the election on November 29th, 1854, '
~for a delegate to Congres~., there waus no fraud
except in the sparsely settled and remote dis- t
ticts, where citizens of Missonri appeared and el
Cvoted. Details in relation to these facts are t
t ien in the report, which says it is redneed to di
In athematical precision that seventeen hundred r.
Sillegal and non-resident votes were east by eiti'- h
zens of Missouri, and that the remainader were t
eleven hundred legal votes. Whitfield received ni
a plurality, and would'have been elected with- "
out the aid of his Missouri friends. ol
tDuring thme winter, very great excitement exist- el
Sed onm account of the invasion, public meetings o
were held, and much bitter feeling was manifes. tI
ted. In Fe'bruary, 1855, a census was taken, ye
~'and the niumbeur of' legal voters was ascertained w
-to be 2905. It was also discovere'd that on the ct
