Winn and Davids, has been handed me by them. II have introduced them to many of our most intelligent citizens, white aud j blnok, of both parties, and furnished them every means in my power to no quite correct information in regard to j the (dale of affairs in North Carolina.

With regard to the treatment of colored people in thia State ai nea ?ha ?Petite io August, aod requesting na? to r?plj to eertain questionswhiob you proposed. . To the question*, I replj as follows : Question 1. Is it ima. or falsa that, sinoe tba August election in this Stste, the colored people are compelled to carrj passes aboqt with them iu order to their protection f " Answor. I bk*a oerer beard of a colorad person being compelled to carr j floob paw, nor do I belier? that thej have boen compelled to do SO. Question 2. Is it true or false that colored people are now whipped at the whipping poft ? Answer. 1 have not heard of suoh a ess? nor do I believe that one bsa oc? curred. Question 8. Is it true or falsa that thc rights of the colored people, ss secured bj law, are ignored in this State bj tho white people ? Answer. To tba best of mj knowledge it is not true. Question 4. Ia it true or false that the public schools were closed against th** colored people ? Answer. It is not true. Schools ara not established over tha whole State, but thej art being established ss rapidly as practicable. The only distinction between white and coiored people is that there are separate schools for the two colors ; but tho charseter of the schools is the same, and it is the testimony of all with whom I have eon veined on the subject that there is no disposition to deprive iu anj manner colored cbildreu of the advantage of the public schools. On the contrary, the desire of both political parties is to give them equal advantages with the white cbildreu. Question 6. Have jou anj reason to believe, from jour intercourse with the people, that the whites or the Conser? vatives and Democrats have noy pur pose or desi'tu to attempt to iuterfere with or abridge auj of tho rights and privileges of the colored people now secured to them by the constitution and thc laws ? Answer. I have not. From my in? tercourse with gentlemen of both polit? ical parties, I have been impressed with the conviction that it is both the desire and intention to respect the rights ol the colored, sud to give them such further security for their rights as circumstances maj show tobe necessary. I will add that I came to the State but a few days before tho election ; that, immediately after the result was known, a number of colored people applied to uriuy officers for employment whieh would enable them to leave thc country with tho troops, as they were afraid they would be ill treated, and, perhaps, reduced to sluvcry again. 1 fonlic ve this feur has worn off. and those who were alurmcd on the subject now feel sale.

THE WATCHMAN WE PN ES DA Ya S?5PT._2j. ?.^ SILBERT.EDITOR T/ie Sumter Watchman has by I far the largest circulation (espe? cially in tine surrounding country) of any paper publislud in Sumter, and was established in 1850. THE TEST, Iff NORTH CABOliINA. The Radicals of Newberry having put a report in circulation to the effect that the white people of North Carolioa, now that the election was over and thc State carried by thc conservatives, were turn? ing their backs upon the colored peo? ple and ignoring their rights, two col? ored men, one a reformer and the other a Scottite, were sent by the citizens of the county to North Carolina, to ascer? tain tho true state of the case. The Newberry Herald says they re? turn the gratifying intelligence ?that there is not a word of truth in thc abominable repor's which have been trumped up by the Radical party." They say that "it is all a fabrication-that they are highly pleased with the con? dition of affairs, and have been treated with great consideration and kindness, by white and colored." Sinco the above was written, a full statement of these colored mon has ap? peared, over their owu signatures, which will bc found on another col? umn. We have conversed with a prominent citizen of Sumter; who traveled, recent? ly, through North Carolina and Virginia He says that the colored people express great delight.with the situation of af? fairs. In North Carolina, prominent colored men who neted with the Radi cals, now declare their satisfaction at tho defeat of the party. That it has brought about a better feeling among the two races. That they now breathe a different element. That hope revives and energy springs up, and that the Radical party can never again command their sympathy or support. A similar degree of satisfaction is ex pressed by the whites. They feel that tho great enemy of the peaoe, good will and prosperity of the two races has been measurably stripped of power, and that a better day has dawned upon the country. That effort and sacrifioo were necessary to bring the change, but that thu good which has resulted, more than compensates for those. HOW THE liTtT'fiON I? TO BB OARUIB?, Col. ll. P. GRAHAM, of Marion, the new convert to Radicalism, has become involved in an ngly difficulty, in con? nection with certuin statements which the Marion Crescent alleged were mude by him- The gentlemen upon wi.oui he culled to disprovo tbs allegation all unito in dec) .ring its truthfulness. In order to show how they propose to ?carry" the election, iu the event of tbe Reform movomeiit being too strong, we unnox the following note, published in tho Crescent of tho 14th inst., from Mr. T. H. KIRTON, and nddruhsed to tbe editor of that paper : Kev '/. Mitchell, DKARSIR: In reply to your uote I will state that Cul. Graham told me that tho Republicans would be suro to onrry tho elections by a largo majority. Ho said that tho Govomor would appoint his own friends aa Commissioners of aleotions, and that the Commissioners would appoint Radioala as managers. Col. Gruharo got the iftw and road to mo how that the managers oould keep the bulba box teu days nl'tor. Lido election. He said 'tho managers can take out Car pouter votes, und put in Scott Votes, and don't you know they'll doit,' He said that Scott wu? a fool if ho did not carry vhe.olaotiou.. M**?^**? f, n. KIRTON.
