Uinncti from Int. payc] Tho Ordinance furthor goes on to declare all war bonds of the Stnto null and void." And that General Canby be requested to advance funds by order ou the Stnto Treasury, and be reimbursed from the amount raised by this tax. And that the President receive $12.00 per diem, and the members $9.00, and 20 cents mileage to and from the Convention. This Ordinance was passed to n second reading, and was made the special order for Tuesday at 12 o'clock... yiri y. jo > ii j The Chairman then stated that he wished tp.be rojeaved i from- any delicate position in which lie might be placed during the debate on the subject of pay and mileage, by explain ing that when first nominated by his constitu ency, he had determined not to recoivo any compensation, on the ground that ns Collector of the Port, he received a salary from the United States Government, and he did hot think it right to receive a compensation from the cenventiou at the same time either as dele gate or chairman, and his determination on that subject was unaltered and unalterable. I The special order, being the ordinance to divide Pickcns District, was then called, and Wright moved its indefinite postponement. L. B. Johnson called for the ayes nnd noes, and the call being sustained, the Secretary pro ceeded to call the roll,?which resulted ayes 38?noes 79. E. W. McGregor Mnckoy then offered a sub stitute for the ordinance under consideration. T. J. Robertson offered an amendment to tbo substitute, which would merely consent to tho division of tbo Pickons by the Legislature. ? James M. Rutland, from the Committee on the-Legislative Department of tho constitution explained that they were preparing a section of the constitution which would render this ordi nance and: all discussion on it unnecessary. ? After some further debate tho amendments wore lost and the question was put whether the ordinance should pass to n third rending and bo engrossed. The ayes and noes wcro called nnd resulted?ayes G5, noes 49. It was then made the special order of Wed nesday; 2 P. M. K.'W- McGregor Mndkey offered a resolu tion, to he incorporated in the constitution, that hereafter land bo sold at sheriff sale in tracts not larger than ono hundred and sixty acres' to give nil classes an npportunity to pur chase. ? The rules were suspended, and an effort itiamo to cull the previous question, which fail ed.-. T. J. Robertson expressed surprise at the effort to cut off debate when the delegates did not understand the question. DeLargo said ho was surprised at such an insinuation against the intelligence of the con vention, and also at any opposition being made, llo'bclieved that nil were prepared to vote, and he did uot sec any use to spend more time and ?money ia its discussion. Beverley Mash said ho hoped that tho reso lution would)-pass to give the ittovbrj .McGregor Mackcy. an opportunity to set himself iright with>his: constituents. - On Saturday he hud votco) to/prevent lands from being sold at all, and now he voted to have the land sold in small lots. There was considerable further debate, but finally tho resolution was amended to read ono hundred acres instead of ouc hundred und six ty and referred to the Legislative Committee. Whittcmorc introduced a resolution to tho effect'thnt, ns the convention had passed u res olution to request General Canby to stay exe cutions, and thus relieve the landholders of the State, that the convention now request the same officer to prevent the withholding the laborers' share of the crop on account of debts duo from tho laborer to tho employer, and also to.prevent the enforcement of claims against laborers for four mouths. Referred to the Committee on Petitions. JCho ljour'.Of 3 P. M. having arrived the chairman declared the convention adjourned. ?tuesday 28tH: Thc'Toll was called and a quorum being pre scut the assemblage proceeded to business. The minutes of the last meeting were read nnd confirmed. M'.'Wi M. Mnckey rose to a personal expla nation, nnd said that he had to opologizc for so fur'forgetting himself that he hud mado a per sonal attack on an individual in the house, but he plead as his excuse the excitement under which he labored owing to a low nnd scurril ous attack made upon his father in n certain dirty nnd indecent sheet, hut while making his excuse to the convention he had no excuse to make to tho low and contemptible individual whom ho justly chastised. Lnngicy moved that McGregor Mackey's excuse be accepted. Agreed to. Bandolph, on behalf of the Committee on Miscellaneous Affairs, reported that the cum< mittcc, with two exceptions, were in favor of the petitioning Congress to continue the Freed men's Bureau, in this State. L-muel Boozer, from the Committee on Mis cellaneous provisions in the Constitution rend n minority report. Mndo the special order for Wednesday nt ono o'clock. A lottorof resignation wns read from John K?ffqrry, of Colleton. -Ai'tclegruphio dispatch . was rend from tho Se'rgcant-at-Arms elect, declining tho appoint ment. .Oh motion of >N. G. Pnrker, tho convention dispensed with the porvices of n Scrgcnnt-nt nrtns. On motion of Chamberlain, of Berkeley, 150 copies of the journal wore/"ordered to be printed and laid pH ?bo tables of the delegates each day. The special order wob called, which was t] report of the Finance Committee/ .llentnoYcd^ to^moufl bestritt inj; oj dog one ogs'Wcro hot property, and, therefore, not liablo to the tax,"] according to tho Reconstruction acts. On a division of the house, tho dog tux was .s>ruokiortti:' j ttth m McGregor Mackoy, tried to make up for the loss of tho dog tax bv increasing the, piano tux. / The folly of tho embryo legislator was shown by several members, and his amendment laid on the table., Aftor much laughable debate on tho subject of figures, to which Leslie contributed his full quota, the report waa recommitted and made tho special order of Wednesday at half-past 1 1?. M. Jcsso Craig moved that the ordinanco pro viding for the pay aud mileage of members be postponed until it was decided in what curren cy they were going to bo. paid. T. J. Robertson hoped that the motion would not prevail, becauso tho Financo Committee had found uo means to pay the delegates than iu bills receivable!, and tho nine dollars per (firm allowed would bring seven dollars and twenty cents, and that would a great deal more than pay the expenses of most of the dele gates. l'illsbury thought that anything the conven tion would do to raise the value of the State currency would only injure, because if the con vcntioii had pawer to vote a pair of Gabriel's wings to each white inhabitant of this State, they would tear those wings from their sockots, aud continue to plod on foot in the dust of this mundane sphere. Robertson said the bills could not go so low as the delegate from Charleston said, becauso the provisional and military governments ot the State acknowledge the legality of the bills, and receive them at par value, and that there is more tax due than there arc bills out. Parker said that if all the taxes due were paid by the middle of April, all the bills re ceivable proposed to bo issued would be ab sorbed. Bowcn objected to putting f?0 on the record, and then taking really only 82.HO. It was pro posed to put ?50,000 in these bills on the mar kct in the hands of one hundred and twenty four people. They would depreciate beyond measure. This was a move of the speculators to get possession of these bills at a very low price, aud be hoped that it, would uot succeed. Whatever he was to get. if it was only i?2.50, he wanted it correctly stated on the record. Jesse S. Craig thought that (he issue of these bills of the State was contrary to the pro vision in the I.'uitcd States Constitution pre venting any State from issuing' bil?rflf credit After' iuuch rnnibliug 'discussion it was agreed to make the pay of delegates ?11 per day,'niid that of officers in proportiou. The hour of throe P. M. haying arrived, tho assemblage adjourned. WEDNESDAY 29TII. Tbo roll was called, and a quorum being present, the assemblage proceeded to business.

Arnim offered a resolution to petition Con gress to lend the Stato 83.000,000, which amount is the nett proceeds of the cotton tax of the State. Referred, i " Chamberlain offered a resolution excluding the proprietors and editors of the Mercury, by 'iianie, and supported his resolution by a speech, in which he stated that it was a meas ure of precaution. J. J. Wright made a speech very much to the Biimc effect. The resolution was adopted, Moses voting in the negative. On motion of Parker, it was resolved to bavo a 8crgcaut-at-arins.

The Chairman said that tho letter was written without any consultation with him. nnd he did not like to act in the matter without the ad vice of tbo body.

Allen, in behalf of Gentry, offered a resolution fixing tho rent of lands, the lessor to receive one-third of the grain ceop, and one fourth of the cotton nnd tobacco crop, where tho lessee furnished all the capital, and the lessor to receive one-half of all crops, where he furnished the stock and feed ; any landlord re ceiving a greater proportion than this, to he guilty of a misdemeanor and liable to fine nnd imprisonmont.

While ire reserve to ourselees the right nfdefi ii im/ our own political position to/ means o f our editorial columns, ire will he pleased to publish contributions from our fcllow-citizcns upon the arnvr. questions which note ae/itate the public mind, whether their opinions coincide with ours (/r not. A district newspaper, ire consider, should be on indc.c of the various shades o f pop ? ubtr sentiment in the section o f country in which it circulates. Our columns arc open, therefore, for ony communications properly written, accom panied by a responsible name, not personal in (heir character, nor absolutely injurious in their tendency. The Stamp <}m slion It is important that our people should under stand the Internal Revenue Laws of the United States, ns fur ns rcgnrds tho ordinnjy transac tions of every day business. In Charleston, a pack of government hounds hnvo boon turned loose upon the merchants of the city, and they nre trailing every infrnctinn of tho Stamp Law, arising from the selling of tho smallest urticlo requiring by act of n two-cent or four-cent ?.tamp. Several oP the most respectable husi. ncss houses in Charleston have been indicted fbr the sale of packages of perfumery, or bottle of cologne, frunV which the atamphas boeOnie j rubbed off, or habbceii Otherwise'' accidentally; removed. TliO detectives there nie Said to have reported one hundred eases of this kiudj in ono day-w?nd the Mock et ot^'the United States Courlis^rowded with theui. These spies and in formers make a handsome living on their share of the fines imposed upou conviction, and thus an unsuspcetiug people uro plundered by the miuions of a government, which shares with them the spoils. It is a striking illustration of the rapid ten dency of this country from republicanism to despotism,?this system of ? t:*j>iuniiy<-. We feel confident that in a few years, no country of Europe, not even Russia, will be able to boast of a more porfect secret police, than the once frco country in which wo live. These revenue detectives, by an oasy transformation, will become political spies; sentiments obnox ious to the party in power will become as grcnt offences as they now consider the selling of a proprietary article without a one cent stamp; and the Courts of justice will bo occupied with the trial of political misdemeanors, before patty juries; or, what is worso, tbo mundcto of some grand or petty despot will consign such offenders to bastilcs with a jury at all. Hut it is not with a view of speculating upon the probable future arising from such a state of. affairs us now exists, that wo write this article. It is writtcu with the intention of cautioning our friends against oue infraction of the Rev enue laws that is becoming quite common, and which bears with it its own punishment. We allude to the practice of giving and receiving ptoinisary notes without being stamped at the time. A great many persons think that if the maker of a note stamps it at any future duy, it is all right. This is a great mistake. If* a note is not stamped upon its delivery, there is but one safe course to remedy the omission, ami that is tosend it to the Collector of tbo V. S. Internal Revenue in Charleston, and let him stamp it in his official capacity. After twelve months, this privilege ceases ; so that the note, after that period, cannot be legally stamped at all, without paying to the government the penalty, of fifty dollars prescribed by law. For instance, any person who holds a noto given previously to 1st February, 18ti7; and since Octobur, P&'i, v.'..*.J. L pcd. b. s ;.. hands a pi cc of p-,p; r, whli-h is worth nothing ?o him nt all, ir his debtor is disposed to take -idvanta^e of him, unless he pays fifty dollars ti> have it stamped according to law. -Many persons in our community have such notes, and others arc holding unstamped papers three, six or eight mouths old, which will soon he worthless to ibem. If- from carelessness or peuuriousncss, thuy do not attend to the mat ter, they will assuredly lose many a good debt. livery planter in the District should keep on hand constantly for his own use, at least a dol lar's worth of two cent and five cent stumps; and in having pr selling land, it is worth the trouble of coming to (hangeburg, and getting fifty cent stamps, before executing and deliver ing the title. A word to the wise is sufficient. A Fracas in the Convention. I On Monday last, at the clo-e of tho pro ceedings of the Negro Couventiqn, a row oc curred, in which the only white delegate hail iug fi'oui Oiangeburg immortalized himself by an assault up9ll Roswell T. Logan, Esq.', As sistant Editor of tho Charleston Mercury. It appears that tho truth so plainly spoken *by the Mm un/, concerning the antecedents of (Albert Cr. Mackey, the father of the n'ntn (young man, was exceedingly distasteful to them both; and in order to take revenge for the ox posuic, young Mackey nuofi an attack upon Mr. Logan, in the very halls of the Convention itself, and several blows passed between them. A more cowardly attack could not have been made but any other kind would not have been characteristic of the plain young hero. It was only in tho presence of a largo mob of kindred spirits, ready to back him oven to bloodshed and murder, that the young hero at tempted n satisfaction that he would not have dared to exact on fairer terms. Tho result was that the Convention became a violent mob, crying out for blood and murder, and it was only by the strenuous efforts of a few of the most influential delegates, that vio lence was prevented. These offorta not only quieted at lnst tho angry crowd, but they soothed the irate President, who is said to have vituperated 'diko a wrathy old woman." Mr. Logan behaved with tbo most coni mendiblc self-control; and acted throughout the whole affair, as became a brave man, and a gentleman. ? ????--?????
