J THE RADICAL STATE CONVE.VTIOS j - [FROM OUR SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT.] COLUMBIA, July 25_The proceedings of Convention to-day were interesting, and tho tendance of spectators unusually large. The C I vention met at half-past ton, and after prayer ! the Rev. JAMES BBOWN, the minutes of the 1 meeting wore road. Considerable but unimportant discussion < sned on the manner of appointing a State Exe< tive Central Committee, and the subject w finally referred to a Committee of rbreo. A Committee on Finance was appointed, cc sisting of J. P. M. EPPD?O, and four others. Mr. C. P. LESLIE, of Barnwell (white), offered resolution to the effect that the Convention i quired reorganization, notwithstanding its office had been chosen on the previous day. It w scarcely read before J. J. Wright, of Beaufoi colored, moved to lay it upon the table. The motit was agreed to. The next parliamentary action of Mr. LESLI should nave been to take his seat, but instead, 1 took the floor, with the view, it is said, of givic vent to a speech setting forth the necessity of ba1 ing a white man to preside over and direct tl deliberations of the Convention, on the groun that it was in itself a measure of conciliation be tween tho races in the State, and of practical in portanco to the success or the party. But th President shut down on Mr. Learn; by calling hil to order. Mr. L. didn't see the point, and said "I riso to a question of privilege." Chair-Well, what ia it ? Mr. L.-I'm not bound to state a question c privilege. Chair.-Then tato your seat, sir! ~ Mr. L-Well, ii you think you cm run this ma shine by gagging debate, you are very much mis ?ken, and for one Chair.-The sergeants-at-arms will remove tua lolegato from the hall. Mr. LESLIE gavo one furtive look behind him ind, as the colored officials advanced for tho pur )oso, quietly, but with some d?termination, ob lerved, "Well, don't all oome on at once; I fee' undly disposod to you all, but-but-I think Td a*her take my bat and go." Aud Mr. L. departed i- sadder and, uo doubt, a wiser man. Tho Committeo on tho Platform and Resolutions nado their report, and Mr. W. W. HERBERT, ol .airfield (white), mado a minority report. It now meanie evident that the "gag" process was the rder of tho dey, and that, between the unparlia? mentary decisions of the President and motions or tue previous question, no discussion could be ?ad. Tho reading of the minority report elicited Teat applause, at once showing that it earned da sympathy of the popular heart of the Conven lon for its mild and temperate tono. E. W. MACKEY, (white), moved that the minority sport bs laid on tho table. Rui?olph, (colorod), DeLargo, (colored,) and [e3?rs. DUNCAN and HERBERT, friends of the re ort, fought tho motions as well aa they knew how, nt gag No. 1 prevailed, and the unfortunate plat irm was laid upon the table. * The Convention proceeded to the consideration f the majority report by sections. Mr. EPPL.NO io ved that the first section of the minority leport J substituted for the first section of the majority :port. The Chair refused to entertain the motion. Mr. EPPING-Can't I offer a substitute ? Chair-No sir, no part of that minority report in be entertained. This was of course unparliamentary, but nobody iw flt to appeal from the decision of the chair, id the unfortunate platform saw light no more etil after ?very cection of the majority report id been read and adopted. Then, Rev. B. F. WHrrnaioitB, with a little ex? cition of triu mp J, remarked that for the pur >se of giving Mr. HERBERT and his paper a lance, it should be taken Jrom^^^bJe^JEh^ja .o long debate that had attended the tinkering >on the other document, and it waa voted down Lthout a dissenting voice. Tho plat. oi m, as adopted, is as follows : L That in order to make the labor of all our yal fellow-citizens more effectual for carrying it the provisions of Congress for the restoration f law and order in our State, as well as for the aace and prosperity of om* entire country, we, the eople of bouth Carolina, do form ourselves into a olitical organization, to be known as the Union ?publican party of S'juth Carolina. 2. lhat as republican institutions cannot be reserved, unless intelligence be generally diffused mong a ilclasses, we will favor a uniform ey stem f free schools and colleges, which shall be open ) all ; 8. That we will favor a liberal svstem of publio n pro vern cn ts, such as railroads, canals and tber works, and also such a system of awarding on tracts for the same as will give all our fellow itizeus an equal- and fair chanco to share in oem. A That as large land monopolies tend only to lake the rich richer and the poor poorer, and aro oinous to tba agricultural, commercial and social itereats of the State, the Legislature should fier every practicable indue em mt f jr the division nd sale of unoccupied landa a nong the po rer lasses, and as au encouragement to immigrants j settle in our State. 5. That the interests of the- State demand a re? is ion o. the entire code of laws and the reorgan?za? lo n of the courts. 6. That it is just and proper that taxes should o ad valorem, and proportioned to the property of be citizens. 7. That the ballot being the surest safeguard of be rights of the citizen, all executive and legis itive officers of the State should be elected by the copie; therefore, Resolved, That, in our opinion, a purely repub can government is maintained only by making ur rulers responsible directly to the people by requent elections-not by the Legislature, bat by he people themselves; therefore, Rejoiced, That the delegates we shall send lo be Constitutional Convention about to be called >y the Commanding General, bo ii int ruc tod to so rame our new Constitution that the Governor and louncil, Senators and Representatives of the State iOgmlature, and ail subordinate officers, except bose of tho Judiciary Department, be chosen by be people, to hold their respectivo offices, not for wo yo.rs, but for one year. And that in the elec ion of Presidont and vice-President of the United ?tates, chosen every four years, tho elector*, as hey are now in every other State of the Uniou, boll Be chosen by tho pt op'.e dir cally, and not by ho members of tho Legislature. 8. That tue poor and destitute, those aged and nnrni people, houseless and homeless, and past abor, who have nonato care for tbeui, should bo irovided lor at the expense of the State; and that, n the reconstruction of our Government, we will iee to it that they are not neglectod and forgotten. 9. That tho unhappy policy pursued by Andrew Fohnsun is, in its effects upon the loyal peoolo of ho South, unjust, opprcssivo and intolerable ; md accor tingly, however ardently we dosire to seo our Sta-o once moro restored to its proper po ution in tho Union, we would deplore 'restoration m any other conditions than those prescribed by the fortieth Congress, to which wc give our cor lial and entre sanction, believing tn J principles snunciated by the Republican party, through that Congress, to be juat and wiso. 10 That tho adverse discrimination toward thc ?gi i uliural laborers of tue Southern States, as manifested by the enormous tax on cotton, ia un? just and oppressive, and should bo abrogated at the eariieac practicable moment. 11. Tuat wo sincerely exult iu the fact that, a6 a nation, wo aro now absolutely a nation of freemen, aaa tiiat, irom thc St. Lawrance to tho Rio Grande, and bom tho Atlantic to tho Pacific, the suu no longer sbii.es upou tho b row of a slave. 12. That a wise caro for the public safety some? times renders iu necessary that those wno have sought resolutely to overthrow a Government should not hastily be restored to tho privileges of which they bav? deprived thomsclves by their crime ot treason-certainly nut until they have Buown evidence of aiucero repentance, and a dis? position as energetically to support as they have m times past sought to destroy the Union ; and that we consider willingness on thc part of theso men to elevate to powor the men who preserved unswerving adherence to the Government during the war, aa the beBt test-of sincerity in professions for the future. ... 13. That wo "Will not support any candidate for offico who will not openly endorse the principles adopted t y the Uuion Republican party ; and that we plcdg-> ourselves to stand by the regular nomi* nation of tbe party, without any reservation what? ever. A long debate ensued on a motion to add tho word "Radical" to the title of tho party, which was participated in by a large number. It waa notice? able that th so who most favored tho idea of '.rabid Radicalism" (which GIBSON, a white Bureau school teacher, said ho wished was as muoh iden? tified with everybody's heart as it was with his own), were tho northern negroes, and tho white offico holders Uko E. W. MACKEY, WHITTEMOBE and BOWEN. The conservatism seemed to be confined to our own colored people The motion finally did not prevail. Mr. EPPING; (white) offering the following curi? ous substitute to tho fourth section; you will ob? serve that tho iron hand of confiscation is hidden by a velvet glove : Besotted, That we desire no man's land or property without adequate compensation and will not favor any system of confiscation, but thcro should bo a just as well as an equal and whole? some system of taxation so that it shall not be to the advantage of any ono to hold in idleness and unproduction Iorgo tracts of uncultivated lands. BJ such a B.V8tera tbe wasto and uncultivated I lan(k now yielding nothing to their proprietor would soon be disposed of in email quantities to actual settlers, who will make them productivo and thus increase the wealth and prosperity of I the Stalo. After considerable debato, (in which Randolph (colorod) took occasion to remark that ho had found more wealthy land holders in South Caro? lina ready to soil at low prices, than money among the colored race to purchase with, the resolution of Mr. EPPINO, was killed by the following clever burlesque introduced by Mr. W. W. HEBBEBT, (white.) Hssotoed, That as living in . and owning large houses in cities with more rooms in them than are occupied by proprietors, and SB the incomo from the rents of city property tend to make the ri. ,r1,cher and 016 Poor poorer, the Legislature should offer every practicable inducement for the sale of such houses as will tend to distribute tho proceeds of su .?h sales among the poorer classes and aa an encouragement to emigrants to settle in said cities. THE BOARDS OP REGISTRATION". L. S. Langley (colored) offered the following : Resolved, That in the opinion of this Conven? tion, some of the registers appointed by order of the General commanding this Military District do not enjoy the confidence of the body of voters in some of their respective districts. A division waa called for on the question, but only six rose in the affirmative, whereupon E. W. MACKOY, the jokist of tho Convention, suggested that the smallness of the vote was probably due to the fear that they might bo sent to Castle Pinck ney. RECONSTRUCTION. E. W. MACHST (plain) offered the following, which was read, sindel at, and laid upon the table: Resolved, For the benefit of those men who ad? vocate the doctrine tnat it is preferable to remain under military government than to reconstruct under tao measures of Congress, we respectfully petition Congreaa to establish a Bmali military government at Castle Pinckney, in tliis State, where they can enjoy said military government. The Committee on Nominations having made their report recommending the Executive State Central Committee to bo composed of one from Dach district, the President nominated, and tho Convention elected the following persons : E. G. Dudley, Beaufort; G. Pdlsbury, Charles? ton; T. J. Robinson, Richland; B. F. Randolph, Orangeburg; H. E. Hayue, Marion; J. K. Gibson, Kershaw; E. P. Stoney.

Heroort, Fuirheid; W. 3ooa. Greenville; W.n. McDowell, Clarendon; Henry Lagee Abbeville; B. C. Duncan, Newberry; Jr. ?sha-jke ford, Georgetown. A COLORED VICE-PRESIDENT IN 1869. Mr. W. W. Wright fa oolored lawyer), from 3eautort, ofibrod tho following preamble and reac Q tiona: Wheroae the progressive tendencies of the Re mblican party are in sympathy with the advance? ment of the colored race, and in their participa lon in all and evory right of national oitiz?nship; ind whereas the colored men of the South have de nouetrated in the past, and are proving to-day a oyalty to the Union, which entitles them to tho onfidenoe of tho people equal to that .vhich is be itowf d upon any of the loyal citizens of the coun ry; ?nd whereas tho commanding position that re now occuA y in the South, in conjunction with he Republican element of the North, will surely ecure to the party the consummation ot ita riahes; and whereas this great influence which re now control demands th? recognition of our nends, and a re prose ix a ti un in the Councils of ho nat.on commensurate thereto. Be it Resolved, That it is the sense- of thia Conven ion that tue interest of the country, of the Republ? ican party, and especially of the South, requires hat the colored man, who haa contributed so auch to the success of tho war, on a hundred bat? te fields, shall bo represented by one of his own ace on the next Presidential ticket of the Repub ican party. Resolved, That in all our political discussions, re keep thia matter fully in view, knowing ita im ortance to the progress of our race and party, nd that wo recommend other Convoi Hons of tnia haracter to adopt similar resolutions. Resolved, That theoe resolutions bt onsidorcd y the Convention at large, without rel. mcevto a oinmitteo. s^ffito"" " " Mr. President and Gentlemen: I have si nitted ieee r?solutions to your consideration ause ley embody a sentiment which is now on. ing tie attention of a large portion of tho people ?. *he Forth. Homo of the most prominent men in Lo te? resa, and out of Co '.gross, have, wi thia a few reeks, given shape and expression to the thought, nd a number of the leading papers of the North rho have stood by our people for ton, twenty and ii ir ty years, are advocating the measure aa ono rorthy to be adopted. Why is it? Beoause, Mr. 'resident, they soo that colorod men in both sections Ave shown themselves faithful to the Goernment f the United States. He furthermore contended bat his brethren had acquitted themselves well i every position which they had occupied-equal? s' as well, in fact, aa the former dominant race. Ie asserted that tho men referred to above had -d in this matter, and the colored race should ot shrink from pushing the movement on. until bey were allowed to ait m the councils of the na ton. For these roasons he had penned the r?so? nnions. He declared that the originators had von pointed to an individual-a Western man nd that it was right, proper and just. He bell o v d that it waa a wise and judicious matter, to be onsidered in their assemblies. It would arouse nd prepare the masses of the people at the South o occupy such ? position: would animate and timulate the race, and would act as a stimulus to heir efforts. He hoped that his remarks would te carried home to tho hearts of his hearers. Mr. DeLarge was opposed to the matter, and rould vote for the best man, regardless of color, ie hoped that, at this stage of toe proceedings, he Convention would not condescend to bring he matter up. He believed the resolution would >e voted down, aa it wa8 a dangerous question to pring at the present time. Pending the discussion, the Convention adjourn id, to meet this morning, at 10 o'clock. >UR WASHINGTON CORRESPONDEIS CK? WASHINGTON, July 24.-The absence of Congress, url the preaenco of intensely hot weather, are joth beirr* very seriously felt in tho metropolis. Lu consequence of their combined influence, news aaa deserted tho precincts of the capital, and even m the public departments, where thero is rarely a season of inactivity, action on important mattera in many instances is suspended for a coolor season. Tho clerks, aa many aa can bo spared, aro loaving for summer recreations-sumo at their New En? gland homos, others at country se ita and watering places nearer here, whiio many, fooling tho forco Df ?mall salar CB and high prices, have to swelter it out al their desks, and trust to tho future for their summer amusement. It waa a blow to sev? eral of these employees of the Government that Congress did not, at the adjourned session, ronew the twenty per cent, addition to their salaries which was made last winter, but which expired with tho end of the fiscal year in June. Congress, probably, has an oye to cheaDcr food, rents, etc., when the crops ccme in, but thal will not have so much weight herc as in the North. At any rate, tho clerical forco in tho department wore not as? sisted pecuniarily by the adjourned meeting. Two great subjects seeni to be uppermost in the minds of very many people just now, neither of which ought to causo any considerable excitement. One' ia as to whether the Proside it toi? execute tho 8upolemontal Bill, and the other a bother ho intends coming into collision with Mr. STANTON. With regard to the former, aa your correspondent ultimated in a previou-i letter, there need be no doubts expressed whatever a3 to tho action of the Executive. It is well enough known thal at no time has tho President attempted practically to ovcrrido tue laws placid by Congress on tho stat? ute books. In all kia conversations relative there? to, from tho very commencement of hostilities be? tween the two branches of the Government, he has expressed, with emphasis, hia faith that the peo? ple will ultimately redeem the poli ical nature of the country. An article which wa3 recently pub? lished in the National M&tigencer of thia city, said to be inspired, but which many well informed parties think waa not so honored, states in sub? stance that when tho time comes for requiring the national forces to aid in causing the laws to bo obeyed, thero is at present no authority for any ono to state tho Uno of action which will be adopted. Tho past course of Mr. JOHNSON'S ad? ministration wLl justify that impression by any one who has watched it. If there waa a disposi? tion to oppose thc reconstruction law it would most assuredly bo kept a State secret until the very last moment. But there ia no 6uch dispose tion, fortunately for the peace of thc country. There has been no little comment on a report which has become rather wide-spread, to tho effect that tho Prcsidont would removo General GHEEI PAX from command of tho Fifth Military District, As usual, upon matters of this kind, which, whether true or not, aro ddcidedly sensational, no one speaks by authority, It ia as strongly contra? dicted in Bomo quarters as it has been assorted in others. Another important topic, which has lately becu canvassed, is tho probability of a meeting of tho military commanders in this District, where they could confer with tho President in his con etitutional offlcialip?ciy as Commander-in Chief, and dorise aan^yaous plan for running tho reconstruction .?. Tus will likely be the case, should a varieof castructione, among (he military commandi theosclves, upon this law be presented. Buhere ?re roany reasons for doubting that such ouhd will be hold. There is nothing rtifelarly now and interest? ing in the SOBBATT ft. ^t was thought that this week would end ibtf, g, far it does not appoor that the case can be?/vea io the jury before the last of next week, Jess t is done so without argument by the.wye;?. The heat of the weather, and the crd. daly in attendanco, makes it a very unpleasannaiter to be compelled to attend each day's padings. HAL. AGKlJLTl RE. WALTEBBOBO', July 2^-In a former article on this subject I said thrfgrarianism will ultimately prevail in the Southeeoontry, and that although it may not be effected/ positive legislation, there are many collateral inenco at once more dan? gerous and more poWul, than statutory enact? ments, because tho ev they carry with them arc beyond ordinary rem?,! which dre tending to produce this state of aljfe. Taxation is becom? ing burdensome and jct J grievious to the South, where large founts have been wrecked and large plantations has ken rendered valuloss to owners under the pre?n,lnbor system, and it is easy to understand tat 'he only practicable plan for the Southern farine will be to select for himself a domicil and ufficint lands for cultiva? tion, dividing the balano ? fire, ten, or twenty acre lots, and settling tbison mob persons as ho may know to be honest, njustious and well be? haved. There are many raaos why thc adoption of such a policy would enseco tho ndvantago of the State as wall as of pavo individuals, a few of the most prominent ol Mich I shall endeavor to enumerate. In the firot place, as vre.avo beforo intimated, taxation is indirectly touch? to- produce this rc sult. Even thoso who regu the motive of this legislation as based upon nnciplcs of nati ml necoBeity, acknowledge thjits effect must bo lev? elling and democratic oven radicalism, and that since it is a result incliiccthuperinduceci by pub? lic measures, adoptedostenaly for other purposes, it is an evil for wbicli tho Itv making power of the United States cannot, m forconscentio. bo held responsible. In otlior wordswo must look to thc intention of the legislation, ad if that bo appa? rently patriotic, must not nd that body to ac? count for tho collateral effet of ils acts, hov. importa-1 soever it may be a a law touching tin. nterests of an entire poop.e. But there aro other influences, extrinsic and iirinsic, which will go a produce agrarianism, or t uso, perhaps, a com? pete word, confiscation, ebaid the onerous impo? sition of taxes fail to effect tbs much talked of and nuch dreaded result. Wo propose without entring more minutely nto this part of tho subjoc, to suggest a pol ey vhich will unquestionably >c found practicable md efficacious in counters tinp the evils which .TO expected, and which willccrtainly arise out ol he application of a law for wb.ch, in one aspect, to one is responsible, and mich, in all of its as? sets, wo know to be ine\table. Wo propose, urther, to fortify the positon we take by argu Qents which will be appreciated by those who tave given careful attention o the subject. While we proudly believe tiat the superiority ol he Anglo-Saxon intellect, ttrength of character, nd loftiness of pnrpose, wil ever assert itself ic pite of misfortune, in den ateo of the combined Sorts of the world to eleva.e the African race ato equality, social and political, to promote mis egenation, to identify habits interests and aims, 0 as to abolish all salient, dittinctive charactoris it J of race, and unite, effectually, all qualities foi be building up of a peculiar nation and pooplo, re cannot escape one conclusion-that we must ve together for tho present, and how wideh ouvor Wi- j-?. . _ * wc ?^dj^_yj_imrny respects, wo_ rn asl f subset .mg these interest we mual, atTeast, bc nitod. Where interests aro so identified, any in irv sustained must affect both parties. Now it is certain that idleness, ignorance, (lissi at ion, or criminality on tho part of thi egro would be very detrimental, not only to hil wn interest, but also to that of bi? white confrere nd what should so interest the white race as th< ocial elevation of the negro to a proper grade, en ouraging him in honesty and industry, and awak ag in hil J a laudable desiro to establish and pre erve his character above the reproach of those nth whom his lut has been cast? Ho has been eu rusted with the right of suffrage. This is a dan eroua prerogative in tho hands of men who dc ?ot appreciate the duties they owe to gov -rnment nd who, without any property which necessarily reates a permanent interest in the governmen a whose most vital concerns they havo a voice say, after contributing a suoport to mcasnrcs un list and oppressive, it may be ruinous to thc Itato, take their leave for another State, thus eva iing tho consequences of an action for which then an be no redress. Ibo suggestions, therefore 1 h ich we would offer, is that we anticipate tho rc ult-agrarianism-by whatsoever innuencos i aav be effected, bv acting readily in tho divisioi >t lands, for which wo can have no possiblo use nto small farm lots, and establish such of th reedmon as have, by good conduct and persovcr .nee, exhibited a disposition to improv heir circumstances by the slow procesi if daily labor. Theso lands are subj ec 0 a heavy tax, and the products of sud >arta as the means of farmers will warran hem in cultivating might be much more pro Itably expended in the improvement of tbos ands than in paying taxes on what is lying idle md can never, perhaps, be turned to uti van tape The many advantages of such a step must b )lain. Wo have every reason to bolievo tba t th whey w.11 directly or indirectly be forced upon ut ind that tuero will be no choice but to accept il Perhaps, if wo do not anticipate and arrest it b udicious actions, it may oven assume a moro radi ;al tvpo than many now expect, and extend eve :o confiscation. But we have an iutermt to serve ind should look to it at once These pooplo ca lever bo anything but the wort doss, disuonuul ind dogradod class they uow are, living iu dail communion with 'ho whites, and making ou country as near au African wild as it ca.i bit, un less the inteteats of their white friends, Unir fui mer masters, !s aw kened m their behalt; and w 1 i y, with a cr-nfldeuco which wo hope ma.? scour a candid investigation of this mutter by pruiuinei landholders, that th y can novor sell their laud lo better advantage. They vii; have ou hand, s any timo, the assistai'ce of mon of their ow clio co-mon who aro dependent upon them, au who look up to them for counsel and direction i all those vicissitudes which aro tho effect of errol common to conditions of ig orance. Upon tho wholo, it should bo the crowning ide of overy Southern man to ?ivo quietly and comfort! blv us long as his permissive right o such a taxi ry lasts, collecting and as far us possible uggrainl sing nis domestic interests ; educating his chi drcu for lives of usefulness and greatness, an leaving tho stormy arena of political life to thu; whoso voices are inoro likely to bo beard.

LEONIDAS. State Item*. THE CBOPB.-There has leon very little rain this Distnc for thrco weeks. lu au ordinary se son this circumstance would not be injurious the growing crops. But coming immediately aft the long continue i heavy rains; tho dry season producing the effects of a drought, burning up t crops so lately almost drowned out. Unless i havo rain soon, and a Rood deal ot it, thcro is gre danger that this yoar'a corn and cotton crops w not more than equal thoso of last yoar. Tort nately most of our fanners have mauo good ero of Bmall grain; but until tho prospect for corn ai cotton improve considerably, they will do well hold on to their wheat, and mako but a sparing u of their oats.- Yorko?le Enquirer. THE CBOPS.-It is really cheering to hear frc all sections of thc District so favorable reports regard to thc growing crops-cotton, corn, pc ^o'tatoes, &c. Our farmers are in thc most ej erant spirits, and most of them aro entirely sat lied with thoir prospects. They tell usUhut th orops woro never better-just as good, some s as they could desire.

To Hie Editor of ilia Daily News: FORK OF EDISTO, S. C., Joly 25.-Tho announce? ment that General SICKLES had postponed regis? tration until C :ngress acts further on the subject was a more ipse-dizit to the freedmen of this sec? tion, and barned their powers of unbelief to such an alarming extent that many took it upon them? selves to walk fifteon to twenty miles to the Court House on the day appointed for registration in order to test that Empla dolore docet experientia. They returned, however, fully convinced and per? fectly satisfied to abide their timo in patience until tho now indefinite yet much-longed for day docs arrive, when all who can will avail themselves of a privilege which they seem to regard as a ne ccsity. The Radicals have schooled them to a degree ol perfection in the art of obedience, which is only equalled by their willingness to obey. On being informed that no registration would take place, the reply was that "they said we must come." They seem to think that they have to reg? ister let it cost what it may. Tho whites manifest very little interest in the political affairs of the day. They appear to regard themselves as mere spectators upon the brink of tho current of passing events. All that has been said and written about tho importance of register? ing, bas, as yet, failed to arouse them to a spirit of action. I candidly believe that if we would exert ourselvee to the task of instructing the freedmen how to vote, &c, we could control at least four fifths of their votes. But our native whites seem to regard this as a duty incumbent upon somebody else-at least as not devolving upon themselves. Our field hands have little or no discretion in these matters-it doesn't make much difforenco to them who they voto for, so thoy voto at all. They are easily led astray, and tho consequence will be that they will voto with that party which Bays the most to them. I was speaking the other day. as I think, with the most intelligent trcodiuau in this section-a blacks nita-about registration, and 18 perfectly surprised at hid ignorance of terms On ask:ng him if ho was going to vote for the Re? publican party, his reply was that he did not kuo.v which one that wis." Maid, 'Massa, wo black />onp!c ain't got any sense about such things only What tue white ones toll us." This will convey jonie idea how little they comprehend or appreci ite the difference of choice. . The crops are a mo e ty of good and ba J.
