Among the carpet-baggers, there are some,
whq have nut entirely lost all seusc of duty
and self-respect; and among them is C. P. Les
lie, Senator from Bnrnwell, in the to-culled
t cgislature at Columbia. Although a Ilcpub
iican,'ho has bitterly opposed the extreme and
. .' . . . ' *
, iuiquitous measures, which havo been pushed
^titrough both the Houso aud tho Senate, uu
der the pafty whip and spur. For this hon
"eaty of action, Leslie has hocn markod out for
sacrifice, and charges of disrespect to the illus
trious Senate were prof erred against him,
iWhich.were .discussed on the 19th inst.
I .The defence of Leslie, frequently interrupt
ed by iho:parties whom he showed up iu their
true light, gives "nn insight into tho sceues bo
? hind the curtain,' which does not do Badical
unn any good.
II Fiading that he could, not have a fair hcar
. ing in, that prejudiced body, Leslie, concluded
? abruptly; and on Saturday nighty in. front of
'-'Nick?rkbVs1 Hotel, he addressed an impose
" audience of the citizens of Columbia; and iu
t] .-. f ?'. ?? ? ? ? ' ? ?< i .
hearing of- many of the carpet-baggers and
?<j(ja)lawsgs, showed up the bogus government
, in his peculiarly scathiug stylo.
On Saturday, a motion for Leslie's expul
sion was loat by one vote; but so sore were
the.illustrious senators, fiom the withoring de
nunciations of Lcslio, in his speech of Satur
day night, that the Senate on Monday, passed
a resolution, ot censure and suspension for six
months; : '

are none here who claim to act as senators
that will see fit, in a narrow and Mean spirit,

to inform the President and senators that
what I shall say is not for tho purpose of
prejudicing the judgment of a single senator.
I caro not what your judgment is. 1 can see
into the future, and if I havo any friends, all
I desiro is that every man's name be entered

some of the immediate things I ask h. friends

would ultimately bo their fate. I aver that
the charges ..that are preferred against me are
not the charges' upon which T am going to be
tried to-day. They do not constitute any
portion or part of the charges upon which I
am tobe tried. There arc charges 'underlying

tiroppress nod driv#sout every Bpirit of liberty.'
I-They' would- combino with anything or any
i body for power. . Take them'Uino by one,
dissect'and analyze their actions,
j But a week ago I-opposed what is known as
the r. rcrimiuatiou bill. I left the Senate
when ? that bill was under discussion, and I
would have left it ten thousand times rather
than that by iny vote or my presence that
bill should pass. But I can say iu all sincer
ity that I did not leave the Senate or en
deavor to dofcat the bill from any unkindnoss
toward the Colored people. I was satisfied
that the passago of that bill would have done
more to destroy the colored people than any
measure that could have- originated from their
bitterest enemy. My opposition to that meas
ure was caused more by the real kinduess I
felt for the colored people than from any
difference of .sentiment or opinion.
Tho senator on the right (Mr. Oorbin), the
leading champion in these charges, became ex
ceedingly popular by y hat I call a subterfuge.
Instead of meeting the question as a man and
a senator ought to?instead of ^meeting it as
the other senator-(Duddy Cain) from Charles
ton did, in n manly, upright manner, ho came
in with another bill, which, in his own lan
guage to-me, meant nothing.
On.that bill tho senator from Charleston
(Mr.iCorbin) agreed fully with me. In his
own private room he agreed with mo. Upon
the streets and everywhere else he agreed with
me, and denounced the bill ns not a fit measure
to be passed by any body. He came to nie
when he had his. substitute prepared and 1
challenge him to deny what I then told him.
I said he could not throw dust in your eyes.
I told him if he brought iu that subterfuge he
would be eaught at it. These people, I said,
are no fools. a>ud you cannot trifle with the
rights of the people with any such humbug
ging subterfuge. He brought it out. It hud
not been before the Seuate one day' before the
senator from Williumsburg (Swails, negro) un
earthed it. Tbc colored senators saw the
triek ; they saw his siuc qua nun, and from
that time he lost the respect of nine-tenths of
the colored men in the Legislature. It was
not because they were opposed to the bill out
und out, but because the}' saw the subtcrfu
It was the double dealing they objected to.
Tho colored men of the Senate will,
know, give me credit, when I did not- think
they were doing right, of having tho manli
ness always to tell them so. If I thought they
were in the right, they knew I would defend
them to the last.
Mr. President, curtain senators finding them
selves unpopular from the peculiar course they
have taken, and not so unmindful of their po
sition as not to try to recover their lost ground.
One senator upon this floor (Mr. Corbiu) to
day, protectively and collectively, has six of
the best offices in tho State within his grasp.
Five he has already, and ono prospcctivcly. I
am regarded as a criminal for standing up like a
man and telling the colored senators just whut
I thought. I havo not changed; but that
senator has changed base two or three times ;
has pushed me aside and swung over to the
strong side, and I hope he will reap in future
the benefit of it. You will soon sec before
this Senate, if it is not there already, the name
of a certain senator receive five thousand
dollars per annum. A few days ago he was
in)- personal friend. What has changed him
since ? Is it because he loves mo less, or the
colored man more ? The money must come,
even if I have to go into the crucible to be
tried.
The President?Tbc senator will take his
scat. He has been three times admonished to
preserve order.
' Mr. Leslie (taking hia bat.)?The Prcsidont
and the Senate will allow me to retire. At
'utiothcr tune nur1 in another pla'co my friends
will be kind enough to call upon mc and I will

\icleghtioft fi vh\:Wlb'any, Iid'a'ded |;by^ Said Mur
pby and Pearcc, candidate for Congress, who
\veYe to bo the speakers for . the occasion. At
'the request Of'the citizens M.J. Poore, She-'1
riff, with n committee of'six othei* citizons,
wciit out to meet the'snid procession', nhd loj
pTotcst'tigafnst 'aVhio'd negroes1 being '"niarehed!
in procession in buriown, and to .state t? them
distinctly that if they would put down theic.
arms ho bbjfectton- would be made to their en?
'io'ringp the town 'and holding tlibir political
; meeting. The Sheriff 'delivered this message,
to Srnrplly and Pearce, the lenders of the proV
cession, and they replied that thoy had noth
i ing to do with those armed men, the guns be
longed to liiuui, and they were iu the habit of
carrying them wherever they went. The
Sher'.ff replied that, as n peace officer, it was^
bis duty, under the law, to forbid assemblages
of armed mcu at political meetings, and as
sured them that if they entered town with
their music and banners, followed by armed
men, ?s the}' then were, that there would he a
breach of the peace, and he "would not be re
sponsible for the consequences. Shortly after
wards the column moved into town in regular
order, headed by Pearce, the candidate for
Congress, and one Putney (white) in a buggy,
armed with a double barrel shot gun, a Spcu
cer rifle and two pistols, with a quantity of am
munition, as was afterwards ascertained. The
next vehicle was a four horse wagon containing
the band und a number of armed negroes.
Next followed a column of negro men on foot,
between three and four hundred, attended by
about twenty outriders. At least one-half, if
not two-thirds, were armed with guns, and
most of them with pistols! The music was
playing, and the crowd noisy and threatening
in their conduct. Murphy and one I'bilip
Jomcr, a negro, Were in n buggy iu the. rear.
As the head of the column approached; 4he
square, one of our citizens, James Johns,.who
was intoxicated, approached within-trf&ir*9&t
of the col'nun and ordered the music to stop,
which order was nut oboyed, but the column
moved on. When about twenty steps from
him, his gun was tired, whether intentionally
or uniuteutionnlly is not known ; but it was
pointed iu a different directiou, and the con
tents struck the ground about twelve feet from
him. The column then fired a volley?some
of the shots at Juhns, but most of them in the
direction of Maples' store, thirty or forty steps
from the column, at which place there was a
number of our citizons , all unarmed, six of
whom were wounded. Immediately ou the
shooting, about tweuty of our citizons spruug
to their arms and fired iuto the. column, by
which two negroes were killed and a number
unknown wounded. The negroes immediately
broke to a thick cluster of timber, one hundred
yards north of the courthouse At this point
there was an attempt made- by Pearce to rally
hi* routed forces, but thirty citizens, a part of
them mounted, made a charge and completely
routed the wholo force, Peorcc flying through
the woods and fields. Murphy and Phil.
Jomcr escaped in a buggy up the road toward
Albany. Soven negroes wero killed. From
the best information we have been able to pro
cure, between thirty and forty wore wounded,
all of whom were properly cared for. it is u
source of deep regret that the calamitous con
sequences of this affair foil exclusively upon
the poor deluded negroes, who yvuvo led un by
wicked wliitc men, Murphy, Pearce and Put
ney, who all made good their escape in the
hour of danger with butjlttle injury to them
selves. This sad result is to be attributed
more to the sharpness und shrewdness of these
gallant loaders in effecting their escape than
to any waut of intention on the part of our
people. We hereby disavow any purpose or
intention ou the part of ourselves or our citi
zens to violate law or the peace cd' the State
in what was done. AVe were willing, and so
expressed ourselves to these leaders, for them
tu hold their political meeting at the court
bouse in our tuwn if the negroes were disarmed;
but we did think, and still think, that it was
our duty to obey thu urdurs of tho Sheriff, RS
a civil officer of this State., iu breaking up
this unlawful assemblage. We felt that as
their numbers vastly exceeded that of our citi
zens present, that if this meeting had taken
placo, tho lives uf our wives and children
would bo at the merry of un infuriated mob.
While tho oppsoquonccs are to be regretted
and we do not, boast of what was done by our
people, we foci t..at we have but.dischargcd a
painful duty, imposed by wicked and corrupt
white men, now engaged iu leading astray into
acts of lawlessness tho colored people of our
country. . Wo appeal to the law-making pow
ers of ticorgia, and the Jawtul authority of the
Unit od States Government, to check the pro
gress pf theso btrolling criniiuals who are
prowling about tbo homes and disturbing tlm
peace and quiet .of our wurrstricken people.
The foregoing .statements, from the civil a"u?
thoritios, give full particulars of the riot. The
??Governor lias addressed a message to the Letgie
hititre ree^B>mcudiug that the Preside*
|j'WiiiB 'tft- tfl rfikt ol;ulSipcopj| to

Earnestly recommends the Legislature to make
^immediate application to tho President for a
'sufficient;. military force $o be .stationed in.
plitcbcll County to preserve the peace and pro
tect the lives, and property of the citizen*. He
drh'ces the occurrence to af determination, piib
.liely expressed by one political party, that
their opponents should not hold political meet
ings/ ^
the committee made a report. They say
the evidence submitted to the Governor is uu
true, and accompany (he same with sworn tes
timony. The report gave rise to an exciting
discussion, but was adopted by a vote of one
hundred and twelve to thirty.
In the House, the majority and minority re
ports relative to tho Governor's message caused
a heated .discussion, and the majority report
W.as at length adopted. This says that the
evidence preferred by the Governor has not
been sustained by the evidence produced be
fore tho committee. 1 be whole difficulty arose
from certain persons, Pearce, Murphy and
Putuey, being at the head of an armed com
pany of freednien at Camilla. This right was
disputed by the Sheriff of the county. The
persistence of the one party nnd the determin
ation of tho other caused the disturbance.
They find the civil authorities fully able to
execute the laws, and there is no necessity for
military interference. This report is sigued
by one senator and four members of the House,
one senator dissenting.
The following report is from Judge Vason
and Mr. Johnson, who were requested by
Lieut. Howard, of the Frccduicu's Bureau, to
investigate the Camilla riot
To Um Senate and House of Representatives o/*|
the State of Geary ia :
"We left Camilla this day noon, all quiet, no
apprehension felt for further trouble. The
act of the citizens was under orders of the
.Sheriff. They acted as his posse in the whole
affair. The negroes in the county are all quiet.
No bad feeling exists between them and the
whites growing out of the affair. But few
negroes were present except those in the pro
cession. There is no necessity for any addi
tional force to protect the whites or blacks.
The wounded negroes will be cared for, and
have the sympathy of the whites. The whole
difficulty originated in the right claimed by
Pearce & Co., to carry the negroes into a po
litical meeting with arms. The Sheriff dis
puted this right, und insisted that under the
pfoclhiflation of the Governor aud the law, it
was his duty as n civil ufficar to prevent it.
There was no excitement in Albany.

Messrs. Vason nud Johnson and Mr. Clark,
a Northern man, who came South since the
war, certify to the good character of the par
ties, and when their report was laid before
both houses it determined their decision rela
tive to the Governor's message, and they re
fused to ask the President for aid to maintain
order.
Address of the Pennsylvania State Com
mittee on the Maine Election.
To the Democracy of Pennsylvania :
The sturdy Democracy of Maine havo
covered themselves with glory.
In tho very citadel of Radicalism they have
demonstrated that you are upon the eve of n
magnificent victory.
Tbo two parties were last arrayed at tho
polls upon national issues in 1SGG. Maine
then polled a vote nearly equal to her vote of j
1804, whilst Pennsylvania polled her largest
vote.
In IBGf?, Radicalism received in Maine
00,037 votes. In 1808, it receives, as they
themselves estimate, 75,002 votes. This is
nn increase of 8 per cent, upon tho vote of |
18GG.
In 18GG, Democracy there received 41,0*17
votes, and in 18G8 it. received 55,725 votes.
This is an increase of 30 per cent, upon the
vote of 1 Stili.
In 18G6 Radicalism received in Penn
sylvania 3117,274 votes, and Democracy re
ceived 200,090 votes.
Apply the test of Main? to this vote, and
Radicalism will receive in Pennsylvania an
increase of 8 per cent, or 24,581 votes, mak
ing a total of 331,855 voles, and Democracy
will receive an increase of 30 per cent., or
87,028 votes, making a total of 377,124 Dem
ocratic votes showily that we will buYO ?
clear Democratic majority of 45,260 votes.
Whilst tho totals shown by this estimate aro
too large for the vote that we will cast iu Oc
tober, no man who knows the condition of pub
lie sentiment in Pennsylvania will assort that
the relative proportion will be lessened.
Maine voted for John C. Fremont, yet
dames Buchanan was elected President, and
Pennsylvania led the eolnmn of States that
made hint the Chief Executive of tho nation.
The hope of the Republic is in tbo Demo
cracy of the Keystone,
As in 1856, the responsibility of determin
ing the contest now rests with you.
I Maine has proven that you can again bring
triumph to tho principles you love.
Let us arouso to rouewed euergy and1 more
determined oflort.
