Secretary Seward responds to the Ohio Gov? ernor's demand for the return of papers rati? fying the Constitutional Amendment, that there is no law permitting the withdrawal of any documents from the department at the re? quest of an individual or State; therefore tho order ratifying and the ono rescinding will both remain on file.

The above mine is, at present, under the control of Messrs. Samuel Jeffries, J. B. Tooker, Colum? bus Roberts and L. M. Beerest. STILL SO GENTLY OER ME STEALING.-(Com? missioner Rollins offered, some timo ago, a re? ward of three hundred dollars for such infor? mation as would lead to tho detection ol' any illicit still and the conviction ot the proprie tors. Sharp Yankees have been putting up thirty dollar stills, and then informing the authori? ties and obtaining tho reward. This iu the latest fraud on the revenue. Thero is in Savannah a negro man who is gradually undc^oing a transform aticn-a change of color -r which no cause can le as? signed nor reason ascribed. The man m ques? tion is a drayman, and well known. ?Some months ago white spots appeared upon bis chin und cheeks, which have been gradually growing larger. The skin, from a dusky black, became in those places pure white. The spots were not caused by my disease or application, but were solely a work of nature. A suuilar case occurred in Norfolk some months ago, in which the phenomena commenced ia exactly tho same manner, and the individual was gradually emancipated from tho color of bis race. Whether the Savannah Ethiopian will entirely "chango his skin" or not romains to bo seen; but it is certain that he has commi'ncod tho process very successfully. Unfort?mate i negro! The New York correspondent ol' tho Phil? adelphia Ledger says: "Business men begin to look upou tho impeachment as somoching that may eventuate in serious results, ilere tof'orc the impression has been that no such ex? tremities would bo resorted to, but the devel? opments to-day of what is going on at Wash ? nigton aro doing much to prepare tho public mind for new excitements and new uncertain? ties. It is unnecessary to add that tho in? fluence of this new trouble in the prospective I is any thing but encouraging, especially in those i branchos of trade that have engagement! run :nug into the future." Travel on the solid ice of the Potoraac is now common, and sleds are used to carr v bulky articles from shore to shore. People fro ai tho lower end of Charles countv, in Marvland, and lairfax county, in Virginia, como up to town mid return on thc ice. THE CONVENTION, CONVENTION HELD BY AUTHORITY OF THE RECONSTRUCTION LAWS OF CONGRESS, TO FRAME A STATE CONSTITUTION FOR SOUTH CAROLINA. Tbs Convention yesterday did a heavy day's work, having passed eighteen sections of tho proposed constitution. With a display of adroitness unusual to the man, B. F. Randolph has succeeded at last in having engrafted upon the Bill of Rights a section which distinctly re? cognizes social equality between the races, or in his own language, "common, equal and politi? cal privileges." An effort was made by Gilbert Pillsbury to strike out tho word "common," but an explanation from the mover of thc amendment quenched ali debate, and with but few exceptions, the delegates voted that "ir? respective of race and color" citizens are henceforth to enjoy everything in common, from a blanket to the bed-clothes in a hotel. Ben. Byas, a colored delegate from Berkeley, who bas a riproarious style of eloquence, was yesterday especially enthusiastic in his honest indignation at those members, who, not con? tent with getting eleven dollars a day, were forever trying to get into the columns of the newspapers, and used up time and money in making bad speeches and debating verbal amendments which didn't amount to anything after all. Talting his own estimate that tho time of the convention was worth thirty-five dollars every five minutes, his speeches yesterday cost the State the neat li t tie dowry of three hundred and fifty dollars. By is is a Bort of walking admiration point, and rarely says things that have not a point somewhere concealed, although a microscope would be required to discover it. Be is a born stump speaker, talks as if he was in full chase after a stroak of chain lightning, isn't particu? lar which end of bi? sentences comes out first, consequently is a little ungrammatical, rolls all of his "r's" like a sweet morsel under his tongue, gets red hot in about two minutes, and altogether isn't a bad specimen of a congreve rocket in breeches. Take him all in all ho is just the man in a plain, blunt, plucky way to give his colleagues "a piece of his mind" when? ever he thinks their virtue bas ruo riot, or mendal depravitv broken loose. On thoso oc? casions, of which yesterday was one, he pours forth, his pent-up sou) as if he was the im? i ac? ?late shepherd of a demoralizod flock. Fyas, rightly surnamed. "Ben-jam-iD," is, therefore, a "character" in the convention. PROCEEDINGS OF THF, CONVENTION* TWENTY-FIFTH. J)A?. . The convention assembled at half-past ten and after prayer;* the call of tho roll and read? ing of the journal, resumed tho consideration otthBBiUofRjghts.? With slight .verbal changes', the following sections were passed to a third reading with? out much-debate. S^o. 34. No property qualification shall be I necessary for RH election to or tho holding of any office, and no office shall bo created, tho appointment lo which shall bu for a longor time than good behavior. After tho adoption of thia constitution, any person who shall fight a duel, or send or accept a challenge for that purpose, or be an aider or abotter in fight? ing a duel, sholl bo deprived of holding any office of honor or trust in this State, and shall be otherwise puuished as tho law shall provide. SEO. 35. The right of snffrago shall bo pro? tected by laws regulating eloc'ions, and pro? hibit mg, under adequate penalties, all undue influences from power, bribery, tumult or im? proper conduct. SEO. 86. Representation shall be apportioned according to population, and no person in this Stat? shall be disfranchi sed or deprived of any of the rights or privileges now onjoyed, except by the law of thu land or the judgment, of his peera. SEC. 37. Temporary absenco from tho State shall not forfeit a residence once obtainod. SEO. 38. All property subject to taxation ought to be taxed in proportion to its value. Each individual of society lias a right to bo protected in the enjoyment of life, pr perty and liberty, according to standing laws. Ho should, therefore, contributo his share to tho expense of his protection, and give his per? sonal service when necessary. SEC. 89. No subsidy, charge, impost tax or duties ought tc be established, fixed, laid or levied, under any pretext whatsoever, without the consent nf the people or their representa? tives lawfully assembled. SEC. 40. Excessive fines shall not be imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishment mflicted, nor shall witnesses be unreasonably detained. Section 41 received its second reading as follows: No title of nobility or distinction, or hereditary emolument shall ever be granted in this State. B. F. Randolph (colored), offered tho follow? ing amendment : "Distinction on account of race or color in any case whatever shall bo Sroliibited, and all classes of citizens, incspec ve of race and color, shall enjoy all common, equ.il and political privileges.' The delegato said that it was doubtless the impression of the members of thc convention thal, the Bill of Rights as it stood, secures perfect political and .'egal equality to all tho people of South CaroUna. It was a fact how? ever, that no where was it laid down in thc instrument, emphatically and definitely that all the people ol the State, irrespective of raco and color, shall enjoy equal privileges. Our forefathers were no doubt anti-slaverv meu, and they intended that slavery should die out. Consequently tho word color is not to bu found in the Constitution or Declaration of Indepen? dence. On the contrary it is stated distinctly, "All men are created free and equal.'' But that was too general, too comprehendive, and our forefathers made a mistake, the result ot which was that the land had boen drenched in blood to perputuato slavery. Tho Constitution of tho Uuitod States was too vague: it was mis? interpreted. On thc one hand the abie -1 states? men ot England and America had pronounced it anti-slavery; on thc other, equally ablo minds regarded it ns pro-slavery in its char? acter. lu our Bill of Rights, ho (tho speakF?)' wanted to sottlo thc question forevoaVby making thc monning so plain that a "wayfar? ing man, though a fool," could not misunder? stand it. The majority of the people of South Carolina, who are rapidly becoming property holders, nre colored citizens-tho descendants of the African race who had been ground down by three hundred years of degradation, and l bw that tho opportunity was afforded, let them bo orotectod in their political rights. Tho words proposed as an amendment iront) not calculated to create distinction, but to de? stroy distinction; and since tho Bill of Rights did not declare equality, irrespective of race or color, it was important tbftt they should be in? serted. Hero he would say that ?ill ol bis rad? icalism consisted in believing one thing,name? ly-that all mun uro created ol' one Mood; that "God created all nations to dwell upon thc earth." C. P. Loslic (white)-I would asl: the dele? gate if it wouldn't have been a little better Tor his theory if the Scriptures Lad added ''with? out distinction of nice or color." (Laughtor.) B. L?. Randolph-ll' thc gentleman will tell mo why Congress saw bc to say "ali men oro bom free and equal," I may answer hit. ques? tion. '; C. P. Leslie-I can't te'l why Congress did thi3 or that. They do u great many curious things, but it docs strike ino that God ill his infinite wiBdom knew fully as much about this business as Congress. B. F. Randolph (who is a minister)-I will say to the gentleman that if God did not sc.: li*, to prepare such laws as we may adapt to the present condition of society, it becomes us to add to God's laws in such a manner as to suit circumstances and yet not conflict with them. A. J. Banaler, colored, tavorud tho spirit of the amend rent, but wished to seo thc chuso inserted irj some other portion of the Bill of Rights. B. F. Whittcmore said that tho whole subject was covered by previous sections, and it was unnecessary to be more explicit. Tb discussed this matter in committee, a determination arrived at was not to int the word color in tho Bill of Rights. Al zeus duly qualified wore entitled to Erivileges, and it was unnecessary f< ties of distinction. The colored man wat zen. Eii rights bad been declared, i (the speaker) said he proposed to defonc rights wherever he niijrht be called-wi it oe in tho halls of legislation or upon tb of contest. A. J. Ransier said that while he wan te principle laid down clearly, that in all rr his race were civilly and politically equs] and entitled to all the privileges of othei bc was not in favor of employing the words and color" in the constitution. F. L. Cardoza (colored), said that it patent fact that, ac colored men, the; been cheated out of their rights for twe turiC8, and now that they had the oppor he wanted to fix them in the, consututi such a way that no lawyer, however cu or astuto", could possibly misinterpre meaning. If they did not do so, they des to be, and would be, cheated again. Nea: the white inhabitants of the State were at any moment to deprive them ot these ri and not a loop-hole should be left that i permit them to do it constitutionally. Ni of them scarcely were in favor of this co tion, and just BO soon as they had the p whether by the election of a Democratic 1 dent, or by an increase of emigration, would endeavor to overthrow the constiti Hence, whde they (the convention) h chance to do it, by all means let them i the words "without distinction of rat color," wherever it was necessary to give and clearness to their purpose. G?bcrt Pillsbury favored the nmendr Nothing but the cannon of the United S knocked the sentiment of slavery out o: constitution. That sentiment had beon pressed m polite language; but in the fi Rights of South Carolina it should be rt nized beyond peradventure that the col man is in fact a citizen, although he had recently told by a white man that all tho I lation to bo accomplished could not ma citizen out of a nigger. C. P. Leslie mquired what was meant b', word "inhabitant* in section 33. If the < gate from Charleston, m explicit terms, ad ted that colored men are inhabitants, t could be no doubt in the minds of sensible that their rights were already guarant Why then all this anxious concern about and color. G. Pillsbury answered by inquiring what meant by the decimation "all men were and equal." Mr. Leslie replied that as a considerable tion ol tho inhabitants of the United State the time of tho adoption of the Declaratio Independence were held as slaves, the phi was evidently not intended to apply to class. But had the declaration said "every habitant" was born free and equal, it wc then have covered colored men. Mr. Pillsbury made some further roma and concluded by moving os an amendment strike out tho words "irrespective of race i color," where they occur a second time i also tho word "common." B. F. Randolph opposed the laatamoodmc The word "common" expressed exaotly w was meant. Common,- public and polit privileges were what they wanted and noth less. The motion to striko out was not agreed MriWhittemoro moved to amend verba which waa agreed to. The entire section as amended was then rt a second time and passed to its third roadi Section 42 received its second reading. .W. J. MoKinlay (colored), of Charleston, fered as a substitute the following; ' Ssc. 42. All navigable waters shall remi forever public highways, free to the citizens the Stale and the United States, without ti impost, or toll imposed; and no tax, toll or i post shall .bo imposed, demanded or receiv from the owner of any merchandise or co: modity, for tho uso of any navigable) etrea unless tho same be authorized by the legis ture. The amendment was advocated more or le by Mossrs. Holmen, Bowen and W. J. McKinli B. Byas (colored), made a long speech which everybody was taken to task for makii unnecessary speeches which cost the convc tion thirtv-fivo dollars every five minute Ho didn't do such things himself, and comb there as he did to represent his constitucn and do tho best ho could in the shortest post bio time, he thought it wrons that evorybot should not imitate his example and loave it : committees to judge as to what was most r quired for tho good of the country. Thc amccdmout was finally adopted, and tl section passed to its third reading. SEO. 43. Tho enumeration of rights in th constitution shall not bo construed to imps or deny others retained by tho people, ana a porers not herein delegated remain with tl people. The above, being the last section of the Bi of Rights, was adopted, and the question wi on passing tho preamble. J. J. Wright moved ah amendment, whic was discussed at some length, but Mr. Whitti moro, tbs chairman of the committee, appen ed to the convention to ullow tho preamble t stand us it wau, without chango, as a matte of courtesy to the gentlemen by whom it ha been reported. Hie preamble was therefore passed to ii third reading with the only amendment bein a substitution of the word "people" for tb words "body politic." SEVERAL RESOLUTIONS wore now introduced. By Mr. B. 0. Duncan (white), of Newberry - That tho legislature shall levy co poll tax ex cept for educational purposes. Roforred to tin Committee on the Bill of Rights. That the legislature shall enact such laws a may be necessary to prevent the bearing o deadly weapons. That no loltery or lottery office shall be au thorized in thc State. Referred to tho Com mutee on Miscellaneous Affairs. By D. H. Chamberhn-That this conventioi request Major-General E. R. S. Conby *? abolish at onco all thc District Courts in Sou.. Carolina, dismiss tho judges, and declare va ctnt.all the offices connected therewith. T. J. Robertson said he held in bis band i potition signed by nearly every member of the convention, making that request. The dis? trict courts of South Carolina were the off spring of thc infernal codo adopted by the con? vention of 1865. That court waa only intended to punish colored peoplo, and, if ho was not mistaken, no man has a right in it to brine suit against another unless bo advances thc costs, thereby excluding tho poor mau from thc rights which he should enjoy. He would al? so say, without fonr of contradiction, that most of th? judges electee? by the legislature are un? friendly to this movement and opposed to re? construction in to:o. Some ot them weramo pre? judiced against tho colored man ?hat it was impossible to secure justice, and ho was fre? quently sent to the penitentiary for'tho most trivial offences. He'Sad therefore made it his businoss to get up this petition and perform what he believed w.is'ii .public duty. \. P. Leslie moved to amend by striking cut so much as relates to abolishing tho District Courts, for ho did not bolievo GeneraLCanby possessed the authority to do so, although it was iu his power to dismiss its judges. ... i Mr. Chamberlain read liom the Reconstruc? tion act a clauso describing the powers of a Comuninding General of a district, from which it upppoared that Mr. Leslie was incorrect. The amendment waa rejected and thc origi? nal resolution was; thereupon adopted, Ur. Le.-liu recording lyii nuns upon tho journal ua voting "no." > Mr. Whittemoio offered a. series of resolu? tions concerning thc mauuor of making amend? ments to the constitution. Referred. -Hayno, of Marion, offered a resolution that the convention petition Congress to re? move disability from those now disfranchised who wish to bc restored to their suffrages. Re? ferred. I R. ll. Cain offered a resolution trat tho com-1 mittce report to-morrow the preamble and res? olutions concerning u loan of ono million of dollar.-; from Congress for the purpose ol pur? chasing ?ands when forced on the market in this State. Adopted. Dr. Newell, of Anderson, presented a petition from a lew citizens of Anderson District, pray? ing that a portion of the same be transferred to the District of Pick.ns. Referred. C. C. Bowen introduced a resolution that General Cunby be requested lo enforce tho or din.nce invalidating all contracts based on slaves, from the date of ita adoption. Adopted. The convention then proceeded to consider article-of the proposed constitution, re? ported by tho committoe on the l?gislative part ct' tho same. Thc first ten sections were passed to their third reading without material change, and the hour of halt-past two having arrived, the con? vention adjourned. flhuldi BIM HIL-TATE.-On Tuesday evening, January 28,1868, by Rev.
