THE PRESS IN CONVENTION.
There is Hope for the State!
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.

said convention.

Of a

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

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

Cougressinan Whittemore arrived in Sum

to address his quondam constituents of
this country. Owing, however, cither

which is more probable, to instructions
reported to have been sent out. by Ho

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

Whittemore: I did not.
John Chestnut, a colored member of
tho Legislature, shouted: "You are a

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.

as follows;

that he is such an excellent and well

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,

there was no mistake, and that if I had

OBITUARY.
Died?-lit the 2Mb year of her
'Tuesday night. March 1st, at her lather's
residence, nenr Hnuichville. Mm. 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."
