The sentiment of the people of South Carolina it unanimous. From the sea shore to the mountains, a voice comes spontaneous from tho people of the State, end it speaketh mighty things?things ot high import, and pregnant with bright Mope,. The people of South Caro lina have repudiated Democracy. Sig nificant omen ! Ita name and its nation al issues are relinquished. This is a fact. The colored man has a natural and constitutional right to his freedom aud his citizenship, and this right is really aud heartily admitted and recognised by the white people of the State. Great things must como from this. Thore is hope for the State! Hope that tho honest men, those who are cititens of tho State, and who ha re exhibited the intention and desiring of becoming her good citizens, will unite, aud that their concert of action and community of in terest will result in breaking up the "ring of corruption," the nest of rob bers that havo settled upon us, and will secure the government to those who are citizens and who are worthy. Another grand effort is about to be or ganized, and it is to be made upon tho basts of fact; upon the fact that the colored man is our fellow-citizen and our equal in civil and political rights. Disgusted as the colored people arc "with the deception, and dishonesty of the pert*, that has controlled his sympa thy and ballot for its own purposes of robbery, thoy will hear with astonish ment tha., the people ol South Carolina arc ready to guarantee to him his right of Voting and holding office. J hey do guarantee to him these rights, aud they ask him to use these rights to purify, to redeem tlicir Stuto of which thoy are citizens, and in which they have the deepest and truest interest. And we believe that they will respond to this movement. They will free them selves from the galling shackles of the party, that has ruled them, aud will ex ercise their rights in favor of the honest and worthy of her citir.es?, white and black. There is hope for tho State! With a community of rights and of interests, the wh'to men aud tbe colored men of I South Carolina will nulte the otfort to gether and honest men will be put in office. Tho intelligence, the elevation, the r finemcnt which have ever beeu the char acteristics of the Southern people, and the labor, the industry, of the colored men, the best adapted to our climate and ( to our great product, united in a com- < munity of the truest aud deepest inte- j rest, hopes and destiny, present in their j union a tableau of hope in the future, t the brighest and most glorious of any } people. t We shall be aa one. The same rights,' f hopes, destiny belong to both. And in t ita effulgence of brightness, the carpet- t bagger will skulk away. Yes! ho must > pack up 1 When honest men agree logues must clear out. That tho people of South Carolina have resolved to make this grand effort, upon this grand effort, upon this true basis, is shown by the ac tion of the J?resH, at their luto conference at Columbia. These gentlemen consulted with their patrons, and have expressed their senti ments. And this is what thoy say : 1. Resolved, That this conference re cognizes the legal right of all oUizens of the State, Irrespective of color, to suffrage. 2. Resolved. That this conference re cognises tho legal right of all citizens of tho State, irrespective of color or former condition, to office, subject alone to personal qualification and fitness. 3. Resolved. That in the judgment of this conference, a convention of the pooplo of the state opposed to Radical ism, and in favor of good and honest government, should be helJ in the city of Columbia, at some convenient time for the purpose of nominating a State tioket, which, while assuring equal and exact justice to all, wilt afford some de grae of security,, prosperity and good government. i. Risohed. That this con fore i ce re spect fully suggests to tho people of the State Wcdnesdsy, the #5th of June en suing, as a suitable time for holding said convention. California has a newspaper; known as the Watsonville Fsjaronien, Tbe news boys are shy of it Ueu.

Mr. ^V#^bei?,u?ri^?11oct Of a tun* to my feelings. In my humble opinion the press of the State, and public senti ment generally, seem to be in the right path to bring about this much desired result. It is oarnestly to be hoped thst no disturbing element will 'arise to neutralize the noble efforts of our good people to break duwo the evil influences and machinations of party, and restore just and equal government. " w' i9% I suppose the Radical party would smile at the oxytc*s\on, Just and tquat government, when they regurd themselves as the personification of the ides. But they have now been In power for several years, aud where, would I ask, have they given evidence of their justness ? Is it to be found in public officials speculating iu State property ? Is it to be f und in Whiitenioro selling cudctshlps to fore gn ers, which were intended as a gratuity to our native youths ? Is it to be found in the something which Leslie, the Land Commissioner, threatens to tell, if his col leagues iu office dotit let hiui alone ? Is it to be fouud in the appointing power to so mauy officers'being vested entirely in one man, in opposition to the constitution of their own coinage and that too, a strictly party man ? Is it to bo found in the Governor of the State, he to whom, on account of his position, the masses should look up as an example of justic honor und magnanimity, refusing to appoint any to office but partisms ? Is it to be found in so many offices being filled by foreigners instead of natives? It is useless to recount further. Dcniocrnacy although it enbodics more intelligence and refinement, and on this accuuut excels Radicalism, in the foster ing of old and cherished opiuions, may not be entirely without blemish, There is uo justice in party. Whoever is elected to office as s party man ! unless he is honest, will bo trammeled with party prejudices. What then is needed in the onergency ? Evidently a union of citi zens of all clusses aud . colors, without regard to perty, whose only object shall be to remove political corruption, and substitute good government, electing to office the most meritorious men, wherever | found, whether in the ranks of Radical ism or Democracy. Before the jug clcctious the citi zens of different loculites, whitj and colored, should assemble in public- meeting, and adopt and publish a platform, guaranteeing perfect freedom 9f suffrage, and equal political rights to ill men, without respect to rase and julor, so clearly, that the most ignorant tuny understand. We must; give to the colored man even more than ho enjoys Irom the Radicals, ('aim, moderate und lispusiiont te men should be chosen to annunciate our principles publicy, and trove to the colored peoplo that our purposes sre honest. Such an organiza ion must succeed, for truth and honesty, lowever distorted, will ultimatily come tut triumphant. All that is needed is a ew clear headed, jomrooo seuce, practical neu, who know well the difference bo ween politionl aud social equality, and vill not allow s mere uitth to endanger he ultimate success of the principles hey are endcawiug to perpetuste. Wo must combat against this character stic squeamishnecs of the Southern icople. If there is danger to the weak und vulgar, there is nous io the strong ninded and upright. The races most tud naturally will be distiuct. They Mutually desire to be so. It was this iqueamishness which had a great deal to lo with our defeat in the last I'rcsi ent al campaign, by prompting us to with Hold from the colored poople many thiugs .vliich wo eould easily have afforded ; und t was this same characteristic Hjueati!. shness which Helped to lose the Cou, lederate cause, when in the latter pnet if the war, a recommendalLn was eaut io Congress by President Duvis, and strongly advocated by Gen. Lee aud many of his generals, to arm the slaves under promise of general emancipation, the press burst forth like a boiling crater in anathemas of denunciation against the instigators of such folly. The Char leston Mercury ever declared, that if such an act passed Congress South Carolina would no longer have an interest iu the war. 1 thought then and still thin! that if such a step were taken, the efforts of the abolitionists of the North would have been paralizcd, foreign recognition would have been obtained, aud our final independence would have been achieved. But so it Wtti, lit order to save our sjave* tee lost our freedom. It is vary much liko s man at sea in a storm with a cargo of gold ; if he throws over the gold he will save his life, but in his greediness to save the gold too, ho ship aud cargo go to the. bottom to gether. How lout, w.ill we thus continue | to dally with trifles, and lose great, things?, I trust our pup o? folly has been tilled. If we wish to wie, wo muni Jay aside many sn idle imt'oiij we must be prso rjoi i.iupljj that we shoud sacrifice principle or honor. If such b it ion of success I for one prefer under the yoke of Radicalism, time is fust approaching fa^the iplo of tho State to organize for ntest. I trust that a pUnjj$f A ill be adopted upon which ire can _3k!

Owing, however, cither to the inclemency ? of the weather or, which is more probable, to instructions reported to have been sent out. by Ho ses, Jr., aud For it er, to the colored peo ple not to come in, there were very few I in town, compared to the number com posing his audiences ou former occa sions. .Worse still, the great apostle of Radical ism, iu the day* of reconstruc tion, was not allowed by men or his own party the privilege of speaking in the courthouse ! "Shade of the night! can it be That this is all remains of the?" Feriter, -me of the cou-ity commission ers, declined giving up the key to the Honorable divine, declaring that "if he is not fit to speak in the hall, ol Con gress, he is not fit to spena: in the court house." It being too wet to speak in the open air, Whittemore, as a dernier re tort, made use of Kuiauuel Church,(color ed.) There, the dealer in cadetships ad dressed an audience of about one hnn dred aud fifty persons for several hours. He went over pretty mnch the same ground covered by his letter published a few days ago. He declared that the cause of the Colored people was his own; that his aim had always been to advance their interests ; that he had made persis tent dan succcsj-ful efforts to secure edu cational advantages to their children, aud to supply the wants of the poor and needy. Being asked by Burrel James to explain the cadctship affair, he ac knowledged having received ono thou sand dollars, but had applied it to charit able purposes. He received very little applause during his sddress; but without doubt a groat many of his audience were convinced that he hud acted right. Though it seems to be the determination of the leaders of his party to give Whittemore the cold sholdcr, and now that he has fallen to keep him down, , t, if ho suc ceeds in reaching the car of tue masses? which ho has ample time to do?he will yet have the hearts of the colored peo ple, and convince them that a fox with out a tail is as go id us a fox with n \nil.r?Cor.-Cha: J&H-n. ? ? Tile Wofb or Whittemork.?Whit temore attempted to deliver a speech at Cutndeu un Monday last, but was inter rupted so much that he had to cease. All ho snid'wns: Fellow-citizens"? Yells from the croud: "Who sold cadetships?" Whittemore: I did not. John Chestnut, a colored member of tho Legislature, shouted: "You are a d?d liar." This broke up the mooting. Yesterday Whittemore spoke at Colum bia to a large crowd of colored persons, denying his guilt, and justifying yet ex pressing sorrow for. wi.nt he had done. Che (nut followed and showed up the revererend scoundrel. The feeling of the meeting, especially among the negro women, was with Whittemore. The Con vent ion of School Commis sioners is in session.

' Whittbmorb's War Rkcorp.?An ex-private of the 80th Regiment, Massa chusetts volunteers, writes to the Salem Massachusetts Observer (a Radical sheet) as follows; If the Congressman WhttAemoro, who recently resigned his seat in face of a motion to oxpe) him for bribery and cor ruption, is the same person who under the nnmo of B. F. WhiUemorc acted as chaplain of the 80 th Rogimont Mass uchuscUa- Veteran. Volunteers, I have a Word to say to the public iu answer to the statement in Saturday's Observer, that ho had no wrong intentions, and that he is such an excellent and well meaning man. Inspired by a strong sympathy for this Republic in its recent death strugglt with the worst of despotisms, I left my native country (Holland) in company with several other young men and joined the ranks of the Northern army as private soldier in the regiment before I mentioned. Mr. Whittemore, who was chaplain, acted also as postmaster of tho regiment, and repeatedly demanded and received of me and my comrades ftO to 75 cents for every loiter mailed,' by us fur Europe aud committed to his charge. To Oj>R.o of these letters did either of | us. ever receive a reply; being ignorant, of the faugjungo, aud having been taught J La. my own. ouuutry to repose entire con fidence, in men of his profession, I cover doubted his honesty until my company, was orderod to Darlington, South C.tio- j liun, when I got a few days furbirfgh to Charleston, Scutl Carolina, where 1 mailed a letter bohie to fftlland and wna surprised to find the pottage was onlj J 21 cents. I expressed my surprise to the postoffice elotk, who assured me that there was no mistake, and that if I had paid* more to anybody before, I bad been chested. I will sdd thut I received; to my great joy, an answer iu 36 days. I could give many instances showing his entiro want, of truth, but the above Will suffice. Dirk Tkupkkn. A Wnshiugtou correspondent says, that during the cadttahip debate in the House, Mi. Niblack went over to Whit temore and said, "I'll tell you, Whitte more, how you can keep your seat in spite of them.'.' ''How? eagerly asked Whittamor*. "Why," responded Mr. Niblack, "get some Democrat to contest it.' dkatu Or JAIpKS ROBINSON.?This champion circus rider died recently in Cincinati, of hemorrhage of the lungs. He was well known and highly admired by the circus-going people of our State for the last twenty years, as one of the most graceful and' expert circus riders iu tho world. - j ? i - The sexton of a Wushingtou church, deceived by the gorgeous apparel of Ma dams* Cutacuzy'& servant, insisted ou putting him into a pew belonging to one of the foreign ministers. Madame < 'ata enzy was so horrified at the mistake that sho caused the services to be suspended while the lackey was shown, to a less conspicuous seat, i '*? ? At Hyde Purk (almost unctcr the shadow of Bunker Hill Monument), on the 7th instant, sixty women deposited their votes for town officers. They were led by Mrs. Weld, sevonty or eighty years of age, who advaneed with cotton urn. brulla in our hand and her ballot in the other. A young lady f twn the country be ing invited to a party, was told by her city cousin to fix up and pnt hrr bot foot foremost, in Order to catch a beau. "?he looked so gieen in her country at tire."

AUGUST/ HOG AN, leaving a fond . i?usbsnd, parent* and two dear little children to nuurn her early exit from this world. Yea, nhe is gone! In tho lenith of woman- j hood and a young rootber's glowing pride "The king of terrors seised her as bis prey," and A vuvsTA is no more ! ?be was the only child ?f two whose locks have long since been silvered by the frost of | years. Alas! what is thero to allure them to this "busy scene of splendid wo," now that their idol is gone! For five long months previous to the going out of her lump of life, nhe reveled in the luxhry of pain ; and over her sick couch fond parents, whose '.odies, altbongh bent by the rude band of age, and a gTief-stricken husband were seen to bond and keep silent und watchful vigils. Hotter fnr, would it have been for them bad their darling been taken at one* to bor father! For although "The flower in ripen'd bloom unmotch'd. Must fall the earliest prey; Though by no band untimely snatched The leaves must drop away : "* And yet it were a greater grief To watch it withering, leaf by leaf, Than see it plucked to-day Since earthly eye hut ill can bear, To trace the Change to foul from fair." wo knew it was sad to see ber thns blotted from life's page before the burden of accu mulated years ha 1 impaired for ber tho en joyment of the evanescent pleasures of this weld. 'Twere sweet t? have her with her friends! Hut alas! the bright sun of her existence, while shining in all its meridian splendor, has been obscured by tbe advent of the dark winged angel of death! and her soul has passed from the scenes of this world into thnt dreamless sleep which will know no waking joys until tbe loud trumpet of the Arch Angel shall announce that the last page has been completed in the great volume of j time. YeS; Willie, she is tone, "Like a star that trembled o'er the deep, Then turu'd from earth its dream," her smiles will no more "Scatter gladness o'er your path." Bat let the reflection that you "sorrow hot with those who have no hope," be a solace to your grief. For if the proprietaries of con duot which she has at all times exhibited in her intercourse with her friends and aoqtiain lances way furnish a basil upon which to es tablish a presumption, you must at once con clude that your loss is her eternal gain. Death had not a single dread for her. It was only an exchange of her mortal veat mcuts for shining rohes of immortality?a bidding adieu to the miseries with which this life is replete, to enter the portals of a hap py and fclicitious eternity. Like atme Chris tian, sbe died i|itietly and meekly submit ted to the terrible mandate. When about to enter upon the dark valley, sbe gave no indi cations of being frightened by horrible ap paritious or unwomanly fear? ? but "Like ono who wraps the drapery of her couch about her, And lies down to pleasant dreams," sbe sunk ioto the arms of -i- r.:h qxtrtjy a: peaceably; and her immeital owul left its tenements of day as calmly and impercepti bly as the dew-drop when it is exhaled by the bright beams of tbe rising sun into the cerulean blue of Heaven: after wbieb. all that was left of .VuguMu. was carried sTuwly and meusuredly to the old family grave-yard and thrre now a fresh mound of eurth may he seen. Upen which loved hinds ling-ririg'y bestowed a wrratb r4" bright flowers. wbo*r dclicioii* fragrance will kiss the lovely moon. *>r?ran as they fall in ?lusters arouud lfei*-| lonely resting place, where she will steep on undisturbed until time shall hnv-e ceased. Yes! she's interred in the old grove-yard; but her many virtues will forever live und bloom in tin- recollection of those who "Knew her but to lare her. Nor named her but to praise." A FRIEND.
