As we stated in our last issue te Molut Zion Society met on Mon day afternoon to take into considera tion 'the course to be Pursued in conse quence of (lie great ceiamity, which has beefallen our community and State, in the burning of the Collego build ing. Information was given by a com mnittee from the Trustees, that the out houses in rear of the College, which had escaped the fire and some of which in former years had served as recitation rooms, would be repaired and made to serve again as school rooms and that a residenco had been secured for the Principal, large cuough to no commodate'his famtily and the studeits boarding with him. The Principal also infobrmoed tle Society, that tle duties of the sutool would be resunmod oI 'Wenei sdey-thus allowing a loss of only two days to rvoult from the fire. Committees were appointed to soli cit contributions from the Alumni of Mount Zion throughout the South and from the bonevolent overywhero, for the purpose of rebuilding the Col lego as soon its possible. A touching addross was made by one of the members upon the loss of Lite vonerablo Collego building which was erected sevouty-six years ago, and which had since aided in educating and sending forth a stroam of useful men to nearly every Stato in the South. Throughout the meeting a feeling was maiifestod by tihe members of the Snchk il is4 p erq grpgt front her ashes and be even a groatei blossing to our land than over. Major Perry's Letter, We published this letter in our last number. W,; tik discussion upon the poits raised impolitic at thim tino ; but will drop a few hints for oir readers, all of whom we beg to read carefully the Military lill and the Supplomeontal Bill before they con elude to follow Maj. Perry's advice. We are sorry for Maj. Perry. Hec has been for years a consiatout Unimion mam, and yet, beeauso ho was a Coin fade rate Judge and identified h imselfI with P'resident Johnuston (by being htis Provisional G overinor,) ho is ds.. franchised and without hope of the radioeal opponItentts of the P'rcsidenit remnovinug his d isitnalification by a two thirds vote. Yet we doin't see htow we cani help hiim by acting in such a mian nor as to cause (uwho took part in the rebellion to 1)0 also d isfranchiised. We cou/d1 demonstrate that his advice leads to this. Only a few, very few, are now diisfrancumhised. This is to bee regretted, but by not be ing also disfranehised we may aid themti, while uniiversal disfranchise. mont would involve all in commton .rutli. Major Perry does not expla in how 40, 000 arc to Out-vote 60,000. If this should be attempted and a failure fol low, then the 40,000 would be wvith out power in the Convention and te Constitution adopted would entirely disregard the interests of the 4(0,000, If successful, then a nowv election would be ordered and this repmeated until a Convention was called ; for one failure does not fmnally decide the matter. The sec ond election would result i.e our ruin for a Convention comiposed of bitter enemies would be thme result, But suppose thme 410,000 out-vote for all time the 60,000, and thtat conse (lucntly La Convention is not held. What then 1 TIho Military 11111 of it self wvould be (as it now is) our Con stitution. Who would be the votera? Who qualified for office I Who undeor our present law arc electors, and who qualified ? If' an election was hold to-morrow for members of the Legisla ture, for Governor, &e., who would vote, and who be elligibio for oflice 11 WVhat does Major Pecrry moan by ad vising us not to "adopt tihe provisions of the Military 1111," and not to "en franchise all the ne-re.. ? That bill is n1ow the law in spito of any thing we can do. lie iight as well advise us not to breathe atmospheric air. Is his advice at all practicablc ? Who of the whites are in favor of veting "no convention" I Very few, certain ly not a majority of the 40,000, even. Opposition to the convention cal only render those powcrless who make the opposition. Nor can we nulerstand how we are to be dishonorod by doing what we are obliged to do. And if we land any scruples onl this point we would be satislied to follow the advice of Leo, Scmmes, and cecry prominent ex-Con fedorato oflicor of the Army and Navy whose views have Leon ,publis.hed. They tell us there is no dishonor in bonding to the storm which we cannot su"-essfu1ly resist. They adviso is to register and voto "for a convention.' Maj. Perry will excuse us if we follow their advice. Again, onr friends at the North ad vise us to swim with, and not against, the torrent ; while the Radicals are alarmed at. the prospeet of the whites not opposing the irresistablo tide, but harmonizing with the blacks. Common scnse advises that we make no opposition. That we harmonize. That we endeavor to have a Conven tion that will do justice to all ; and will ordain a wiso Constitution - and make wholesome regulations as to the right of suffrage, &c. That we array all South Carolinians, without regard to color, in support of the interests of th e State ; and ondeavor to throw ofi the infamous cotton tax and other kindred measures that op)press black and whito labor at the South. This hs conmmon sense. Major Perry brands the adivoeates of the Convention (or rather those who vote "for a convention" as a mat ter of policy,) as repudiationists and stay-law men. This is illiberal. It h true there are those who favor the Con vention that desire ain equitable coi promise of indebtedness, and a breath' ing time to enable then to meet theii liabilities ; but on this account they ought, not to be stigmatized with the disgraceful epithet of "repudiadion ists." Major Porry knows that nc Stat e, no Legislature, no Convention or any power whatever can in an' State, or Territory, over which the I H. Constitution runs as the law of th< land, "pass any law inpairing the obli gation of contrauts," by which i Oily demagogues, or th uninfortned hold out the possibility of such a thing. Why then does Major Porr' lug, in this to cast opprobium upor those vho are willing to follow the advico of Loo, Beauregard, Johnston, and hlampton ? We have purposevly beon brief (amn we may add obscure). We close bi again advising all our rea dcars to study thae twvo Bills already mientioaned, Honor, There is, says the Rlichmnond EAn. urea great disposition to sincer ai the sense of "honor" just no0w. We are told to disregard iit, (aid look onml to material~ advantage. 'r'ids teach inig will return to plague many whao inculcato it,. In these times of peou mniary disturbance, the hionor of debt ors, whether individuals or colmmiuni ties, is often the only reliance ofecredi tors. Teach the people to rate honor lightly, and a domnoralizat ioni will en. sue whose results will be ruinous be yond the power of estimation.

The Lynch buarg Virginian, referring to Senator Wilson's stumping tour through the Southa, says "ho will pro.. bably be here ini a doy or two, and we hmopo that lhe will tell the bretharen what he told us in February, 1861, while seated upon a sofa in the United States Senateo to wit :that 'if no comn mon ground of complromnise can be found, I am in favor of a peaceable separation of the sections, and against war under any circumstances.' We were for tho Union thon, as we ever land been ;while Mr. Wilson, Mr. Greoley,.and other blatant advocates of colored suffrage and equal righuts, would have separated from the South and loft the negroes in bondage."

Lotter from Major T. W. Woodward. To te Editor of the W'innsboro News,: In your recent comments on the letter of OX (ov. Perry, the following paragritplih oc ours: 'We are glad to see hint so far as we know, Capt. T. W. Woodward and a few others of this listrict are all who endorse Mr. Perry." I thank yott- kindly for the compliment inilenddi although there is an awkwardness of expression which might lead some to doubt, whether or not, you real ly intended one. The compliment paid is of so highit chitractOr, as utialerstood by me., that I accept it cordially, proudly, for you have heralded my na1til1 to I lie world its one who duires yet to believe that the South has rights, and that [I1am willing to say so even though it, brings upon me confiseation of the small pittanco left. Sir, I have been amaz. ed, disgusted, at the truckling cowardico of our people at the bear mention 9f conl tiscation. ConAscation of what?' There is not one in a hundred of us wlhor have more than from two dollars and a half to three dollars worth of property that has not already been confiscated, and yet. we just now at this late day, begiu to fear Ihat we may b maide poor. I for ono shall es teem itan honor to havo my rnos-n-vry on fiscated twice over rather than lend my en Orgies to ilie accomplishnent of their li. lish designs, and sir, I at proud and hopo fil for t lie country, becasc you, int'orin- te that there are a "few more" of lie saio sort left. The trucklinky alhtiehed to aibove is unbecoming a noble people, a pepile Whio have already amply denonsotrated Ihe titter inssignitieanco of properly, when a great principlo was involved; and in (lod's tialie I protest aglist the State and the Som i ignoring Ihis principle, that of all other covered them with most glory. You set out upon ia criticism of Mr. Per. ry's letter in advance of the appearice of the letter itself, inl your paper-m rather unusual pro edtire ont your part, its t hough you dreaded the offects of the letter upoin the community, and wished to forestall it, and instead of going into the subject miatter of the letter Itself, you commence wit i Mr. Perry its far back as 1160, aid then ligress again by giving your iersonal views and notions, about things in general, an( al though they have nothing to do will the letter in its bearing now, I slhll giv ' I ithm passing notice. "Wo accord Mr. M Prry groat forosight in the posctio)n he tieut as sumed, and grauit that if we had then follow ed his advice we ilight be bet ter off." This admission upou your part certainlyciuecords great wisdoim to Mr. Perry, and commends nis teachings of 1867 to our careful sober - consideration. "But there is a troid ous dilliculty just here, was not. the war inl evitable ?" o we are certainly not sole. ebolireof lo l iti o f sivy lut Wts nlot it an obstacle its our way ?

"But. let us come right down to the sub-. stance of Gov. Perry's letter to the Ph/xa.nix." You first comabait his prosposition that "wes are going to enfranochiso 60,000 blacks, &o.," and say that "Victory against ius In a terrible war has alreathy ionoe it." It, Is trite that negro enfranchisenit. is a very prsominent feature of the lisle bill, not mioro so however than the fauct that negros wore fre-e before the ratification of the emnancipa.. tin proclanmation, anud yet we Were called upon to ratfy~ it by ouri owni acceptanoco, jutst. as we areocalled upon snew to ratify the suppli toontary bill, If this be not so, why would (Congrees be guIlty of the stolid stupidity of allowing its the vote, "convention" or "no convention," If the thing were a foregone conclusion. If there be noe convention, there oan be no legal, n-i Aoncst change in tho Stato ConstItutIon, and this Is the ditt. etulty that Congress has fotiund in adminis boring the dose.
