Next, JT. M. Rutland, Esq., Regis
ter inl Bikriuptcy for tho third Con
grsisioial District, was called upon to
mhlre" s the people.
Ii eI i.! Ie occupied a novel posi
(ion, that of being ciled upon to ad
ire a peoplo upoi legal and politi
cal rigts, who had never before on
joyed these. Tihe .*th of July had
been the anniversary of the liber
ty of tle whito race only. But
the colored race had also boon in
troduced into a stato of liberty, and
the presen t was a fit occasion to ad
dress them upon their now position
and relations. That they woro much
- imoro worthy of enjoying these rights
I than their race had beei given credit
for. (Cliers). That while they
stoodl inl dill'erntr relations than eve
before and had rights they never be
I fore enjoyed, they were also bound by
- duties as citizens which they never
I owed before.
s lie said South Carolina does bear
th le blight of slavery, but originally
this was au gre'it country, her soil was
fine, anid her Colored pople by good
condiet and industry may fully de
velope her resotiurecs for her elinato
pruodIuce every species of food.
l1e said the colored people are now
freeien, anl when their State and his
St ate called them to contend for her
:,il, we col1 oil act together, for po
e litically wpeaking we are now ail one

[Af this point there was an iter
raii ion ca used by (lie arrest of the
onGlly dirunken colored man out of at
ileast. t wo thlousand, who wa~s creat ing
Csome disturbance on the grouiid. TheIi
guard hiowev'er prompiltly arrested him
and( took him to the guard house in
itown. A voice was hoard teoo at the
it. same t,inm sayiing--"stanid fast, the ar
xgumients aro too bcautiful to be lost."
Th'le interruption was very brief.]
M ir. Rutland resumiied, and saidl t~hat
by t ~Ihis proposed Conv~cuit-ioni the righits
u-of the colored people would be secur..
e edl. Therefore they should comio for
e wardl at the election and v'ote for men
-that wilIllpropelly r'epresent them1. if
they do not their righI ts willI be pro..
carious. They shiould~ avoid itf possi.
(1 ble iiilitarv rule.
Tho'li colored pl)oll are disposed to
educeat e their children. They should
d -persevere in this. We want yeu to
understanid the principle of Govern..
" men1t, and~ how to administer govern..
y nient. Ascertain who your friend~s
are, and when it comies to vote, vote
k for (lie interests of yourselves and
.your country. (Cheers.) You must
sock to have your class educated as
well as the whites.
-One point had got abroad, and that
was upon1 thie foolish subject of confis
catioii. Trhe idea that lands and
homes11( cani be1 had at the expense of
I ot-her peopile I No mani need expeet
(o get a home wit hout lioiiestly work
ing for it and paying for it. (Cbeers.)
e G et your hiome honestly, and then you
will enijoy it. (Qheers.)
lIe was dlown on this schome. Sup..

Ilass would secure all thie lands, and
(- thers woniil ha5v4 nonle ; and14 while
- somiiie woiuld hiave all (-lie hinds, amd
ot(hers havi e none, thleso last would
w nit ( v~i:'ioni11 mde again. Now you
woul a111 l say thiis wmnIhd be in just ice.

One rpo'r1t. the s)eaIor had I(1 1 -
uested to notice. A rumor got out
Siat t colorci mal ot your It1t1 4er
used somo violent langaiige in favor of
confiseation. The speaker h1d 'et
for this man (and it, is Jolh Br:ttoin
whom you all know), an11d asked him
itbout it. lie (John) said it was
false ; said he was t friend to tie
white man, and thinks the white mall
at friend to him. He is onl the grounid,
aniid I canl appeal to him as to the
truth of what I Hay.
Mr. R it.land closed by saying that
although lie had prepared no1 reg.ti
lar speech, yet lie hoped he had said
otnough to coivilnce lil that it wasi
their dutty to register, go to the polls,
and therO elect p0roper 1m11en to repre
soat thom fit tile Convention to be
hiold next winter.
Col. J. U1. iion rollowed Mr. Iut
land, and delivered ani able statistical
and argumeitt.ivo speech, of which
we can hardly give anything like a full
report.
Col. R"on said that the gentlellin
who preceded him found som fault,
but it was not upon any thlilig of tlt
kind that lie would address theI. ie
had no elaborate preparation, was go
ing to tell themi a1lt plai n truths, and
that tiruth nmeeded 110 preparation.
lH said the occasioin was that of the
amiiversary of th) co1mon indepel

would trace bac! , particularly, events

The whit~e peole did not lighlt to

they will nover take from the colorel

T1hose voting algainslt it, were New
Jfersey, Pennilsylvania, Dlelaware and
Virginiia.
What settlod the slavo .trade upon
the country ? T1heo South celebrated
for her gentil-ity and whloleneoss of
soul, was down on the tra(de. Not so
hlowever with the North. Why the
first slave ship sailed from the eity oft
Boston in 1646. The NOw Englan~d
States took grcat credit to themiselves
because thecy carriedl on this trade
with "energy and thrifIt."'
Now how did the Northern States
abolish slavory ? Not by setting the
slaves free, but by puittinlg them in
their pockots. Slavery becam1e1 un1
profitable, and therefore they sold1
their slaves.
In 17'74 Rhode Island passed a law
that any one born of a slave mother,
might be free. Eut unider this law
there were niot ten set frec-and why ?
Blecanso they were shoved out of thte
State anid sold. Anid what (lid (Con
niactiecut (do ? Why ini 178.4 sh0 pass
ed a law that any one born after
March of that year sh~old be free
when lhe became twenty-six years old.
But nio one ever became of that age
under the law-and why ? Because
'they wore all shiovedl ont of the Stato
andl sold. I don't toll you all this to
make you hate theso people, but to
prove to you that you are indebolted to
nto set of' mn for making you free.
(Cheers).
