Porto Cabello : ?till remains' true to the government, and is .well fortifiedjuid governed and protected by three wax-steamers. ^r^Fhe following extract, says the New York /Express, from a letter from one af che most p -ominent lawyers of our country, bearing date July 6,1868, to a friend in Brooklyn, is worthy of being noted as showing which way the sub . atantial men of the Republican party proposes ? to vote: "I cordially unite with you in the hope that the nominations which have now been nude in New York city will meet the approval ^of the whole country, and be elected by an overwhelming majority, giving us a govern? ment equally just to all sections. I have been --an old Whig of the Clay and Webster school ; all my life, and an earnest Union man, despis - ing Democracy and its principles, but I cannot stand Radicalism, and will support Democracy - or any other party that promises to relieve the . country of the infamous rule of the party in power." -At last we have Mlle. Patti's marriage con? tract, the terms of which are said to have been .?"exacted" from the Marquis de Caux by Baron Rothschild, he;: guardian. The Diva's fortune of 200,000 fr ano?, together with one-third of ^ her future earning*, is to be set ap.trt in trust for the benefit of herself and children. The remaining two-thirds are to be appropriated as aar husband and herself may desire. The father and mother of; the bride are to have -each.an annual pension of 6000 francs, which ?a to be allotted out of her income. The stern guardian refused to allow the Marquis any money to pay off the mortgages on bia eatatee, bat it is calculated that the future income of bia wife will place his head again above water. Strakosoh is to continue his services to Mlle. Patti, and the marriage will take place on the first of August next. -A very cool proposition was offered in the United States Senate on Tuesday by 8enator( Trumbull, to pay the senators lately admitted from the Southern States compensation dat? ing from the beginning of this Congress. The inconsistency and extraordinary character of the resolution were so well shown up by Mr. Davis that Mr. Trumbull could find no words with which to reply, and suffered the resolu? tion to go over. The senators lately admitted I are eight in number. They have given but a few weeks of theif- valuable time and services I to the conn try, and yet Mr. Trumbull proposos to pay them at the rato of $5000 a year from March 4, 1867. These senators would thus draw, up to the 1th of June, $6250 apiece, when at that date not ono of them had been admitt? ed to his seat. This is what may be called pretty profitable "carpet bagging." The House, however, passed a reso lu i ton to pay its new members from the reconstructed States only from the date of their election. ? CHARLESTON. FRIDAY MORNING, JULY 24, 1868. Oar People and State. The white people of Charleston care but little for banners, torches and processions. Their banner is their declaration of princi? ple. Their torch is the ardor which now inflames their souls. Their procession is the long train of violence and iniquity whioh made them years ago rise up against the wrong, and makes them now pledge an eternal fealty to the party whioh stands before the world as the champion of truth. They do desire that the meeting of to-night may be imposing and impressive.^ But not by any mere outward display, nor only by the meretricious charms of music and gleam? ing lights. Our meeting of to-night will be grand, and even sublime, for it will be the sponta? neous tribute of a gallant people to that national party which, however it may have for the moment swerved from the narrow path, is now marohing towards the goal of -j American republican freedom. It will be the expression of our unceasing resolve to cling to the true and avoid the false, and of oar faith that, however long and weary. the strife, the right will at last prevail. Meeting together as they have not met for many a day, the people of Charleston, in the midst of their blighted city, under the shadows of the spires which have looked iowa apoa generations of leal and spotless Carolinians, will declare their attachment to the doctrines of their fathers, and pledge their faith to the support of the mea who are their living represeL . ives. And proper it is that by the side of our most venerable citizens, by the side of J those who spoke for Charleston when North and .West, and East and South, sate in sol? emn council to plan the redemption of their threatened homes sad altars, there should be a gallant soldier, whose title of nobility is a faultless lineage and spotless fame whose Legion of Honour, whose cross and star, is the lore and honor of every ohild of j Carolina. . . \ The old and the young, the prudent and the heedless, the veteran politician and the young aspirant for the thorns of public life, the merchant whose ships traverse the boundless seas, and the artisan who is the source and foundation of our strength all will be there, all united once more, all with bat oae purpose an d one desire, all ready to toil without tiring in the cause of FREE? DOM, JUSTICE AND TRUTH. These words shall be our battle cry; for upon us and the mauner in which we do our whole devoir now depend the welfare of ] ourselves and our children, and the liber? ties of oar suffering State. The Ta- on Cotton and Mice. Some of the colored members of the leg? islative body, now in session ia Columbia, are beginning to perceive that the foolish ignorance of their own colleagues is likely to be more dangerous than what they are accustomed to call the old slaveholding spirit of the people of the State. Before South Carolina had been reconstructed con? gressionally, petitions were sent by the eager Radicals praying the legislators at Washington to repeal the cotton tax, which they declared was pressing heavily upon the Southern negro aud "truly loyal" white mau. The North also eatered its protest; sad whea it was shown that a tax upon the great Southern staple was cramping the producer* defrauding the laborer, and, in making the crop unprofitable, decreasing the area of land in'cultivation, the tax was sulleuly repealed. This was done for the benefit of the whole United States-not be? cause of any congressional sympathy with the men who stood behind the plough with their buttonless gray uniforms still upon them, or who had staked all the little that was left to them in an unsuccessful effort to retrieve the losses of a wearying war. The colored people were glad, thinking that now they would be able to put some? thing in pocket from their share in the coming crop, or that their own little pa?ch of cotton would bring them a very mcie3t fortune. They did not pause to reSect whether the abolition of the United States tax would make up for careless working and negligent cultivation: nor did they con? sider that even a tax of two and one-half cents per pound is not as ruinous as a rainy and unfavorable season. Their talking men told them that the tax-was the cause of theil troubles, and they gave implicit faith to what they constantly heard. Now, however, the circumstances are changed. The talking mea-black, white and yellow-have beoome coroners, sheriffs, county commissioners, and senators and representatives in the General Assembly. It is no longer a question of pity for the poor negro, but of pay for the carpet-bag? ger; and forgetting all former argument and denunciation, NKAOLE-one of the white tribunes-has introduced a bill to impose a tax of one oent per pound on upland cot? ton and two cents per pound on sea island cotton, in addition to a tax of seven-and-a half cents per bushel on rough rice. If these taxes are not paid, the lands are to be sold at auction by the Comptroller Gen? eral-NEAQLS, the framer of the bill. It would be useless to tell these negro legislators that such taxes are unprece? dented in the history of this or any other State in the Union, for nothing can be more unprecedented than the hybrid Legislature in which they are proposed. But some of the colored people did at once characterize the bill as a monstrosity, and went so far as to tell the Comptroller-General that his ?proposition was not worth the paper upon which it was written. The explanations of half-a-dozen colored men may not, however, have any effect when there is a loud cali for the prompt payment of the little six dollars per day; but the mere expression of inten? tions to tax heavily the products of the soil will do good-in opening the eyes of the col? ored race to the selfish greed of their rep? resentatives. Any negro-not a legislator or an office-holder-can understand that such a tax, added to the uncertainties of labor and the vicissitudes of the times, will go fa*r to lessen the culture of cotton, and therefore, to decrease his opportunities of obtaining employment,-that it will take a large slice from the net sum realized from the crop, out of which, if working on shares, his remuneration must come,-that it will, whether he labors for4imself or for others for hire, take money from his purse to pay a parcel of men for legislating in favor of the carpet-bagger and ^against the white Southerner and the Southern-born negro. A little time and a little'more carpet? bagging legislation will prove to the negro that for him there is no hope of safety or profit but in a dose industrial alliance with the respectable white people of the State; and, in this manner, the Columbia senators and representatives will do good to the whole negro race, while they only k.tend to gratify and benefit themselves. , Co Bent._ TU REST, THAT FIXE RESIDENCE?, No. 3 Beld-street To an approved tenant terms moderate.
