[Contmued from First Page.] Crecer?! Hampton then took his Beat amid Tri Id and repeated cheering. At this moment ex-Governor Bonham, Gen? eral M. 0. Butler, Bishop Wightman, and XeRoy Youmans, Esq., came upon the stand. Mr. Finley then introduced the Hon. W. H. Hilliard/of Augusta, who spoke as follows : SPEECH OT KB. HTT.T.TAED. Feihw Citizens: I did not expect to speak to Sou this morning, but I cannot refuse, when ie banner is flaunting the air, which bears the names of that party with which are identified the greatest glories of our country. 1 speak under the flag which first waved in New York, and now, like the fiery cross of old, is passing through the country calling upon all good men and true to etrivo to carry it on to vic? tory. Hitherto in our party politics men have been striving for the sway of the country, for place and for proper power. Hie old line between Whigs and Democrats is well known, but the defeated party was always sure that at least tho country was safe. Now we have no mere ?axty contest. Our struggle now is for conBti it?onal hberty itself, the last struggle that may ever be made on this continent if we go down in the fight. [Cheers.] Your chieftain. Wade Hampton, fought most gallantly, so did the men on the other side, and when at Appomattox General Lee gave up the desperate contest, every sectional wound -. might have been healed. The battle was won by those who fought for the Union, and if they had but said "you fought well and honestly, S " let us bury our differences and come together in a restored Union," this would now be the ? ? bestand strongest and proudest government OD earth. Buta political party sprang up. The men of the South were to be kept down, 1 . and that Berrea of measures was adopted .which we now- denounce, as "unconstitutional, revolutionary and void." First, because they in ;, tari ex o with the prerogatives of the States; say - who"shall be enfranchised and who shall be disqualified. Second, because by mere force -ot numbers they have fastened upon us a tyr? anny so .monstrous as to shock the whole country, which only awsits the proper time to declare its indignation. Third, because being unconstitutional and revolutionary, they must * De void. : c The Confederate banner, my friends, is no . longer seen on earth. It bas been laid aside ? amid regrets and tears, but it bas not been A~ ' tarried. K will never be lifted up again in hos tfl? demonstration, but it belongs to history and fo the people who have garnered it in their hearts, never to be forgotten while aught VvT>y men is reverenced or loved. This we now Bpeak of not with a sectional spirit, but because ' while the North is atrong and prosperous, the South bas been and is under (be ban, and if we J? loved our State well in the day of her prospori ty, we love her better s till in the hour of her adversity. In the South the spirit of freedom has never died, and henceforth, while we may e s tabl-'.ih new relations, we will never surren? der an attachment to the cause of constitn tional hberty. Much of our property was gone ..when the war closed, but we did not give up ? liberty, and if it had been known that we should be bela forever in subjection as a subjugated ueople, rather than surrender, we would all ! have died upon the field of battle. We surren? dered our arms, but we did not surrender our ? hberty. If that surrender of arms is to be construed into a surrender of liberty, we should ?. all exclaim, in tbs language of a poet, written for another clime: Ob I could we from death but recover, Those hearts as they bounded before, In the face of high Heaven fight over That combat for freedom once more. 2 - i.. Could the chain for an butant be riven, That tyranny flung round us then ? Not tis not m man nor In Heaven Io let tyranny bind it again. [Cheers.] - But there are men in .the North who recog? nize us aa men whose glory bas never been tarnished, and these men will see to it that Carolina wheels into hue and enjoys all ber have felt that this battle would be won not so much upon calculation of chances as upon sentiment and feeling. This country is too great and too young to surrender up all her liberties. If Congress seizes upon the Supreme Court and absorbs all the power of the Union, then the struggle is lost. When the news of the battle of Marengo reached England, Mi, Pitt, who waa then Minister, said : "You may close np the map of Europe fox twenty;?jttC* If, foo, our Marengo is lost, we caa ynly fold our robes peaceful!v around us end'die with our liberties gone. But thi? I do not dread, for I believe that we shall drive out the worse than Goths and Vandals who now sit in. Washington and so regenerate the government. Ours are the men to do it, andjjoitthsywiS. [?neers.] . +vfiB \?*l?P*flo has been misrepresented by the Bwicaij, as yen know, and as he has ciiown. -They dread a war who know best what it costs, and wc will fight for our rights, not in the field, but in the Supreme Court, and before the Executive. Oar programme will not involve "tho raising of an arm dr the draw? ing of a sword. No longer shall our great chief? tains, ride at the head of their hosts, but we wilf "peacefully elect a majority in the United Btates House ?f ?epresentari vee. We will elect Seymour and Blair next fail. [Cheers.] A mere majority rule is hard indeed to bear. Let us, then, appeal to tho people to come up and swear obedience again, not to the government, but to the constitution. [A vo.ee, "How about Joe Brown?"] He ia on the other aide of the river, and on this day of rejoicing, and in this ' grand contest, we cannot stop to think of so small an object. [Laughter and cheers. ] The Reconstruction acts are but false gods with bodies of brass and feet of clay. They have no coherence, and under the pounding blows of the Democracy will fall into the dust of oblivion. I say tu you. then, be of good cheer, and look for a grand result. From the Pacific comes the ti dings that the whole Pacific coast w?l be carried oy Seymour and Blair. New York w?l do its duty, and in Pennsylvania I hear tbe bugles of the men who are marching down to the rescue of constitutional hberty. Now we have none who would be our friends against us as was the case in the war. Pendle? ton, the great statesman, is already stumping the West for us; and when we have succeeded, all the ends of the earth shall bless onr triumph, and they in Europe who have despaired of re? publican Institutions will say, as they raise their voices in gladness : " The Great republic has righted herself. The Republic is safe, and Jus? tice and Constitutional Liberty." [Long con? tinued cheering.] - SPEECH OF JUDGE ALDRICH. Mr. Finley then introduced the Hon. A P. Aldrich, wbo spoke as follows : . . Ladies and Gentlemen: I greet you now with especial pleasure, for I bring yon "glad tidings of great joy." The friends of constitutional liberty have marshalled their hosts from one end of the country to the other. In New York I was received with great cordiality by all class? es, and I felt that their professions were true. Faith and hope revived, and I determined to exert all my energies to restore a constitutional government to this down-trodden land. The attie of freedom was once more to be waged, and the friends of the constitution are aroused from Mains to Georgia, from the Atlantic to the Panifia Be, theo, of good cheer, for the day of deliverance is at hand. In 1865 when I told you in this same village ' that all was not lost, you would not believe me. You were ail cast down and never expected to rise again. I tried to raise your courage, but in vain. If, however, we had listened to the timid counsel of our leaders, our grand old State would have been this day completely AfrifflniKert. Thank God 1 the people have been ahead of their leaders, and have never believed that their sacred cause was wholly lost. Their faith ia now rewarded. A great party is now ours, and we should all press on to victory and relieve our country from the yoke of the op? pressor. I regard it as a cheering sign that our lead? ers were received so cordially by the fighting men of the North, who have no respect tor Butler, Stevens, Sumner, and their crew-no more than we have. These men, the true sol? diers, were in the front fighting for the Union, while Beast Butler was three miles in the rear picking up spoons. [Laughter ax.d great cheering.] They will not be robbed of the fruits of their victory, and will not allow ten States, which they fought to keep in the Union, to be kept out of it any longer. Even ii tho Badi cain carry by fraud every Southern State, the majorities in the North and West will elect Seymour and Blair. New York is sure for eighty thousand majority, and Ohio, Pennsyl? vania, Indiana and Illinois will follow, and the Ba di cala will be beaten so badly as never to be heard of more. When, in the.New York Convention, I heard the shouts that hailed the calling of the names of the Southern States, I was glad; but when tile name of Carolina was hailed with shouts until the welkin rang, it was the proudest mo? ment of my life. I fell that the constitution would be restored by the only party which ever stood by the constitution. The man in the South wno would throw suspicion on the Democratic party is a traitor. When the Democrats are successful, we shall rmlonKerbec8Jled,,rsbel',and,,traitor." The Radicals now are the rebels and traitors, and so they will be called. We must strike down tte imhtary^despotism they propose to estab ?5Sv xi6- !?! ?*J Qr&nt's own men that we . will beat lum in November. In a late election | at Washingtub, the officers voted for ( but the private soldiers voted for Beymoui so it will be again. The great heart o: army beats responsive to orr cry for the i ration of a constitutional government, great mass of the privates, volunteer anc ular, and the majority of the regular off wiU be found in November voting for Bey and Blair. The Constitution and the Un that is our cry, and with it we will mari victory. We are going to fight a great fight at the ballot box, and we must wit we lose, we die. My countrywomen, whose smiles have ci ed me to-day, continue to encourage ns we are sure to be victorious, and men in vember next yon will join us in einginp hosannas of triumph. [Great applause.] At the eloee of Judge Aldrich's speed meeting adjourned to the second s tai bear speeches from Bill Storrs and Flea Goode, both colored. Storrs said that he was proved to be a I ocrat, and would stick to tue party which tbe right hand to the colored man. He he trusted the people of the South beoaue knew them, ana he did not call scalawags carpet-baggers his friends. The Nortl soldiery robbed white and black alike on S man's march; are they, said he, your frier I go to the people of the South when in n they are my friends and those of the col? people. He said that the Yankees did not the slave ?. They were fighting ior their ci try, and, in 1862, the South could have g back with all its rights including the ala What, then, would have become of the or cd man ? He said the Yankees did not e fight. They became officers and left the fi ing to the privates, who were foreigners. Columbia lately the soldiers would not em] him, he said, because he was a colored m and they took white men who had fou against them instead. He said, you live u the lands of the white people and sloe their cabins, and if you laugh now at the wi people the tim* will soon come when you laugh on the other side of your months, condemned the action of the colored mei electing white renegades to positions of b in the Legislature, and said that the other a delegate from .Charleston called out.to Speaker of the House, "I have something say." Speaker-"I hear you, sir P Deles - I want to give notice to bring in a bil abolish the Freedmen's Bureau in North rolina." [Laughter.] This, he said, was style of our legislators. Pleasant Goode said that when he arriv?e Aiken as a pure Democrat, he was looked ni as a menagerie show, and wanted a wagon go about in for exhibition. He alluded to Legislature, and asked why he (Goode) was elected, if they would hot have respects white men. He said he was not like U. S. S ator Tom Robertson, who applied to be mi colonel of the Home Guards. He (Goo went to the field of war, and was ever read j take up his musket in defence of the rig He said he had often stripped himself to g comfort to the soldiers, and he would die 1 der the Democratic flag. He was a soldiei South Carolina, and if any man was to be c franchised he was ready. Ho said he woi die for his State, and if his bones were dug forty years after bis death, the Democra principles would be found written on them. At this point a colored man in the ero asked a question, and Goode said: Are you a Bad ? You are ! Then show ye tad. Radicals are like monkeys. They i ignorant brutes, and are educated in kindnc by the whites, who, when they are convert? cut off their tails. The Yankees didn't wi us ; it was all the nations of the earth. T Yankees could not do it. In conclu sion he again urged his hearers stand by the Southern white man and t Democratic party. When Goode had ?finished, the main stai was again occupied, and Mr. Finley announc that the following letter had been receiv from the Hon. J. B. Campbell: CHABLESTON, August 3,18(58. To Frederick A. Ford, Esq., Chairman Exec five Committee Aiken D?mocratie Club : DEAS Sm-I have delayed to the lates t m ment a reply to your letter of the 28th ultim hoping I might be able to accept yourinvit tion to be present at Aiken to-morrow, to wi ness your "barbecue to the colored people, ax liston to General Hampton and the other pron inent speakers from this State and Georgi) whom you expect." I regret to say I find m engagements such that I will not be able t leave the oity during the week; I must, then fore, forego the pleasure you so kindly ofieo It will be a most interesting occasion. It Sarp?se is one I have Wofoundly at' hear Text to the rescue and restoration of our com try and its constitution and laws from th sacrilegious hands laid upon them for destrut tion-next to the emancipation' of my ow race from the odious and .vulgar slavery coi trived and being at {empted by traitors to tbei country, their lineage and to civilization have at heart the welfare and advancement i prosperity and happiness of the colored race Our conscientious and laborious attention t this parp?se is as much a duty to be discharged as it is a duty to discharge the obligation of debt. We owe it to ourselves for the sake o ourselves. It comes to ns from the past, am we owe it for the sake of the past." We owe i to the future for the Bake of our children ani our country. And more sacred than all, w owe it to the present, for the wonderful loy ally of the colored man to his owner and hi owner's cause during the temptations of th war;-and, considering the natural invitatioi to excesses given by sudden emancipation and by the seductions and character of the ad venturers whose influence he was open to we owe something for his conduct since tb? war. j in my judgment he is the best friend of tin colored man who most practices towards hin the duty of justice, kindness, fair-dealing ant material aid, teaching bim the way to pres perity through thrift, industry and education and who entices him (east into the field of poli tics; than which, there is nothing more cor rupting to persons-like him, just emerging from a condition of pupilage. True, the dis oussion of political subjects with the coloree man is at present forced upon us. The circurn stances in which we are placed, leave us nc choice. It is a necess?v. But I would not extend tho field of discussion beyond the limit of ac tua necessity. I would make him no promise; which I might not be sure can and will here? after be performed; I would hold out no hopes tor Mm, which I might not believe there wil] be t reasonable expectation of -"being realized. I would tell him, truthfully and frankly, that hie present political supremacy will not be and cannot be permanent. That the worthless ad? venturers, who cajole and deceive bim to advance . themselves, and, like a night? mare, press their he; TV weight upon us, know this. They have never in? tended or expected the substantial and per? manent advancement of the colored man. They aspire to use him, and, for their own selfish purposes, to array him in hostility against those with whom he was born and has lived, till we shake off their suffocating em? brace, when they will, like the oppressive spirit I have likened them to,take their night and seek more genial regions. I would tell the colored man that, whether they shall succeed in thin 8ut pose to place him in hostility to us and len leave him, is for him to choose and de? cide. Ii he prefers to trust bis future to the uncertain contents of their carpet-bags, rather than accept peaceful and abundant homes on the fertile fields of bis. na ti vi ty-(fields which these false friends first promised, bat have fail? ed to give to him)-then it shall not be said, in the day of his tribulation, that we did not fairly tell him in advance of the fate that waits on that choice. That fate will be his progres? sive degradation instead of elevation, and the gradual but certain extinction ot his race-just as the Indian, who once roved supreme lord of this mighty land, has passed away. We can promise anet assure to him equality with ourselves in the protection of all his rights of property and person under the law, because wh?e we had the power we gave all that, and we intended it. There is no more healthful power in a nation, or a community, than a thrifty, in? dustrious, educated, moral and religious, free, rural, laboring population. The safety of gov? ernment and of capital rests securely upon such a population. Such labor creates capital. Capital nurses and encourages such labor. There is a mutual and harmonious rebanee each upon the other. We can promise, and not fear failure of the promise, to the colored man, to exert all the power we may have to make his people such a population, giving all the encouragement which the law and its just and faithful ad? ministration can assure, and all the aid which the discreet and sagacious application of capi? tal to labor can give to elevate thom to a posi? tion so enviable, and save the American por? tion of his race from extinction. When that time arrives, they may have a just right to participate in political affairs, ana may enjoy it. But can we now, at this time, in good faith, make to him any promises of political concessions ? I veiy much doubt it. It is a grave question, and is to be gravely answered; and if i,o :. re to retain one particle of self-re? spect, it ir. ist be answered honestly and truth? fully. At present we are without power, and have nothing to give; we can only promise; but we know that late or soon, and we believe very soon, the power to redeem what we pro? mise, with all its responsibilities, will be upon ue. I have said that the adventurers who ? the present misrule, know it is not dui Its authors, who sent them here, did not do not intend to give to the colored raci permanent enjoyment of political power, did intend ana rio intend to uso them io: acquisition of power for themselves, whicl erwise they could not obtain or expect after that to leave their deluded victims to fate. Their reconstruction means among trolling men of their party nothing more the pending Presidential election. What does not rest upon my opinion or assei The doom of this misrule has been sole adjudged and recorded- The great A tl States, New.York, Connecticut, Pennsylv New Jersey-the Pacific States, California, gon-the mighty West, her river and States, Ohio, Michigan (even Michigan tensely, hopelessly Radical), Illinois, ind Kentucky, proclaim with one mighty, n voice, that the white man SHALT,, and the ored man SHALL NOT, participate in and co the government of this country. They pronounced that it shall be "a white n government," and their voies is potei But they have said that upon this que each State is free to speak for itself; Who, 1 and what are the States? Alas: that 1 should be need of such a question. There once a South Carolina-she was a State bad a history. Her history remains,.an hope, will ever remain in the perpetual mei of men. The destroyer came, and there' is no South Carolina Slate. I do not ventui call that limping, tottering experiment set u bayonets, now on exhibition at Columbia shame and ridicule of the nation-a STATE. "Men, high-minded men, With powers as far above dull brutes endued. AB beasts excel cold rocks and brambles rude; Men who their duties know, and knowing And crush the tyrant while they rend the chai These constitute a State." Such men are not to be found in the st gering exhibition at Columbia, which call self the State The people of the great St which I have named are at this moment un with us in the most eventful election country has ever witnessed. It is a life death struggle for the restoration of the < etitution and the Union it created-for the viva) and preservation of the stifled judi department of the government-for the re tablishment of the Constitutional Execu power.now reduced by progressive usurpati of the legislative branch to the mere "shat of a name." With ns, beyond all this, the struggle is political life, for country, for civilization, relief from the bondage to which the lov< power and the hatreds, not the purposes, of war have subjected us. With our friend* those States, the struggle is to save them sel from a military despotism seen in the b distance of the future, or from the pres vulgar tyranny of a corrupt and foresworn C gress. They seek to avoid the fate of the oient Samnitc-s, who, failing both in couragt destroy, and-in magnanimity to be genere to a conquered enemy, stripped and degrat under the yoke their Roman captives. Th reward was the same yoke, measured by same measure, and final nun. In this gr contest we can Rive but little, if any, aid to < friends; if our vote is against them, it will declared legal and counted for our enemi If it is for them, it will be declared illegal, in truth it will be, and will not be count Such is the Radical intention. Good fa then, and all the proprieties of our posili< require of ns to be cautious, that we do 1 risk doing injury or causing embarrass me There is less danger from saying doing too little than from saying doing too much. That which is 1 unsaid to-day may be said to-morrow-wi is said to-day cannot be unsaid to-morrc Nothing would add more to my m orrin cat i and pain at the close of the present canvai if it should end in defeat, than to have it SE I had, by any word or act of mine, addec feather's weight to the heavy burden o friends undertake in their battle for justice ai salvation to the South, before the disorder ?ublic sentiment of the North and West. VJ wy-nothing short-might console me for tl mortification that it was won in spite of tl embarrassments I gave. I shall not, thor fore, by any word or act during the canvas diveige from what I understand to be the ss timent of those States which I have nami upon the subject of suffrage or the politic disabilities or rights of the colored man. A own judgment is that, as a question of polic of mere campaign strategy, it is unwise I make, at this time, any offers or promises < tbe subject. It belongs to the future-m the present. When, immediately after the wa President Johnson, in 1865, suggested to Go ernor Orr, to myself, and to others that might be well for the State, in advance of ar attempt to interfere with this question, I step forward and give a qualified suffrage < the colored man, I acceded to it as a measm of discreet policy at that time. I would DU at this time, make that or any other offer c promise upon the subject, lt was not the approved or seconded by others. fiat instead the basis o? representation wa itself narrowed, so that the colored man, ut der the constitution of 1865, was no longer wm he had always been before, a part of the bas; of representation. This was achieved by tb votes and influence of Governor Orr and Judg Moses over the opposition of Chief Justic Dunkin, Judge Inglis, Judge Wardlaw and th late Judge Frost, and other distinguished an influential men. Without them, or either on of them, it could not have been done. The present happy relations between the co ored politicians and Messrs. Orr and Mose may be taken as evidence that the former ai by no means unforgiving to those who woul exclude them from all representation, thu placing them below the grade of property. But there is another consideration of thi subject, of great and turning weight, if we ar free to deal with it at this time. The truth it the colored politicians have not by their put lie conduct, since they have held power, recorr mended themselves to the favorable eBtimat of their beat friends, or of reflecting men gee emily. They neither assume the administra tion of power themselves, nor confer it upo: such men as they know to be fit and propel They have done exactly the contrary; they hav placed in power men whom they would no themselves trust for a day s wages. If by sud courses they expect to gain the confidence o good will of tax-pay era, holders of land, o capital, and of substantial people generally in fact, of whatever constitutes a rjtate-thc greatly deceive themselves. If we think sud conduct offers a proper opportunity to approacl the colored man with concessions, we are, think, wofuliy mistaken. Of those who at tbii time form the defacto government of Soutl Carolina, there is not one who might not fint his peer and superior among the colored peo ?le. Who would not ?ty that DeLarge, Car oza, Whipper, Wright and Cain are bette: men than any one of the four members o Congress by them and by their influenct inflicted upon the people of this State Less cannot be said of the colored poli ticians than that they have failed in fidel? ity to themselves and to the great body ol the people and the property of the State. In their late Convention, in their present L egis lature, the colored element was and is vastly superior to tho white, not only in numbers.bu" also in character, in deportment, iu education, and in all the elements which make substantial respectability. They, too. were really repre? sentatives of something and ot somebody, lhej represented labor and a large population ol their own race, and they could, bad they been wise,have made themselves the representativee also of capital and the white race. But, as I have said, they failed in fidelity to themselves, to the white population, and to the property ol the State. The white element of those twe bodies represented nothing and nobody bul themselves. Neither labor, nor property, nor population, nor learning, nor civilization, can claim them as representatives, and if they had or have constituents, they are far away among the enemies of our people and of their pros? perity. And yet it cannot be denied the color? ed politicians knowingly and willingly surren? dered themselves ana the power entrusted to them to such keeping. Shall we, then, at a time like the present, and under the circum? stances we are in, seeli such an alliance ? I hope not. lu conclusion, I have a few plain words fur the colored people-directly io them-truth? fully, if not agreeably. I have a right to ad? vise them, because I am then friend. They know I am. I say to them, then, "You cannot and will not be permitted to participate perma? nently and substantially in the political power of this country, or any part of it. Remember what I say. You may be soothed by the illu? sion of a qualified suffrage. That wiD bo for the educated and the propcrty-holdeiB among you. They are so few that it will give you no power, not even the shadow of it. This is the "WHITE MAN'S COUNTBY f it is his government, and he intends to keep both. You cannot and will not hold either, nor will either be held by others for von. You may live here if you will, peaceable, "happy and prosperous under the protection of our laws, just as we are protect? ed, with no distinction or inequality ; but you cannot govern us. You cannot say this is un? reasonable or unjust. It is what you tay to the white mon in your own countries, for you havo your countries and governments. There is a tree and prosperous colored government, a Republic upon the model of our own. It has a President, Senate, House of Representatives and a Judicial Department like ours. From it you have excluded the white man. He is assured of the protection of your laws, just as you are? ?rotee ted by ours, without distinction, e bas not, and cannot have.political pow vote, or hold office, or participate in th ministration of the government. Such i republic of Liberia. That is no place fo: pet-baggers. There are in that'atm?sj no attractions for them. So, also, it is 1 Domingo and Eayti. They ara the co man's governments. And if yon will, yon, may have other governments of your own they will not be in the United States. Ii i white inhabitant of South Carolina-if < white man, woman or child in the Soul States should consent and agree to it, would not be permitted by the people 01 North and the West to establish a Liber a Dominican or a Hay ien government w the United States. This matter is in hands, not ours. Nor is there to be any nership between the white and colored mi the government of this country. There i middle ground in this matter. The go meut must be all white or all colored. D your pretended friends tell you this, or at show that they mean this, when they shul out by their commands or entreaties fron Congress where they are for the time eupre I know it is said, you are told, you say il that the suffrage once given to you and 1 cised, cannot oe taken away. Some of even threaten that the attempt will be lowed by bloodshed. That will be as you choose. I was once a voter. It was my b right. My ancestors, under Washington his compeers, thought tbey had forever cured the rieht to their descendants. It been taken from me. The bayonet, and 1 der and ball, with blue coats, did it, and' will do the same for you, when law or color of law, or the voice of the white pa bids them do it.

CAMPBELL Mr. Finley put the following resolutions riatim, and they were unanimously adopt several Federal soldiers voting vociferously the affirmative. The resolutions are as folio' Resolved, That the citizens of South Can na, now assembled in mass meeting, do here most cheerfully assent to the nominatic made by the Democratic Convention, held the City of New York, on the 4th of July la for the offices of President and Vice-Presidt of the United States: and that on the platfo: Sromulgated by said Convention, wt very 0 ially accept the Hon. Horatio Seymour a Gen. Francis P. Blair as the chosen leaders the Democracy of the Union in the apprcac ing contest, and pledge ourselves to co-opera heait and hand, by all the means in our pow. strenuously exerted in their behalf, to achie the victory. Resolved, That we consider the overthrow Radicalism and the triumph of the Democrat at the ensuing elections, as essential to t preservation of Constitutional Liberty in tl country, and that we confidently appeal to the conservative elements throughout our la: IG unite is effecting this glorious c-onsnjnni tion. Resolved, That we entirely approve of i. course pursued in the New York Convention ' the delegation from South Carolina. Loud calls wero then made for Genei Butler, who spoke as follows: SPEECH OF QE7TEBAX. BUTLER. Ladies and Gentlemen-I have been in pt itics twice in my life.. First when I tried take South Carolina ont of the Union and fai ed, and secondly, when I tried lo restore h to the Union and also fail?d.- Beconstmctioi aa it is called, is an idle- ?urcei it is worse-tl excess of criminality. :fjt..%a- a farce to si South Carolina io restored'when from one er to another there is nb security'for life, Uber and property.' Three years ago, - atGreonsljor I gave my parole of honor as a soldier, ai that paroio has been observed in good faith 1 me as iii has been by von. Wa had a right 1 expect good faith in return, bot' we had not r< ceived?t." Among the%uppbrters of-iheBad cals theTOarebutf*w:who;weresolaie?Bqt tl field. We were called traitors and rebels little while ago, and now Hancock.- MrClellai Buell and' Gramger are called [the traitors men loth wham we could bave settled 01 troubles in ten minutes. The Radical leader Butler, Colfax and Stevens, were never in tb front of battle : they skulked in the rear, an hurried to the din of war men who were noblt and more worthy than they. The chieftain < the partv is U. S. Grant. Against him, as soldier, I have nothing to say, and I belie? that if be had been left to himself the tern granted the Confederates would have bee faithfully carried out. But the Radia hounds have placed bim in a false positioi He knows nothing now of jus ice, or of po lie; or of statesmanship. He only knows now th rule of tiie bayonet and tbe two-word militar law, "ordera and obedience." Ho can as we rule this country as a doctor can teach law c a lawer teach engineering. He has place himself in a false position, and bas sacrifice himself to a love of power. General Butler then explained the iniquitic of a so-called majority rule, and spoke of th contrast between the fla di cal and Democrati tickets, in which latter Seymour, the civiliar was first and Blair, the soldier, second. H said : I and wc have abandoned the cause fo which I %?nd you struggled, and in the grea struggle before us no man should relax hi efforts. All that ie left of our once lovely lau is at stake, for if the Radicals are victorious we must gather up our domestic treasure aud bid farewell to the land that gave ns bntb When liberty goes down we must seek som happier scene. In our great fight the true and manly Unitei 8tates soldiers will co-operate with as. Ever, true soldier will set the constitution at the sid of the Democratic banner, and with their aid w have no right to despair of the republic. Ii conclusion, General Butler expressed his confl dence, tba-, the righteous cause would prevail and sat down amid much cheering. Mr. LeRoy Youmans was then called for, an? that gentleman spoke as follows : BB. XOUSUNS' SPEECH. Ladies and Gentlemen-A political assembl; of such numbers and respectability, graced b female loveliness, is a sight to which t?out? Carolinians have long been unaccustomed During the long and trying years of the war and during the longer and more trying years 0 .arbitrary rule through which we have ainct passed, there has been no euch demonstratio! within toe limits of our beloved State. What, then, means this assembly? Why is the whole country here gathered together? What means this music that Btirs tho heart? Wbatmeane those proud banners flaunting in the breeze: They mean that we have received "glad tidinge of great joy." They mean that the Democratic party, that grand old party of the consti? tution, has risen from its slumbers like a bridegroom to run its race, like a giant refresh? ed with wine to fulfil its own mighty behests. It means that the unfaithful stewards who have so long held the Bword and purse shall bc held to a reckoning for their short comings. It means that the party representing the true genius of the American people shall be re? stored to the high placeB from which by com? motion anddiacord ltbis been unjustly ousted. From the timo of Jefferson, the greatest states? man that thia country ever produced, until the secession movement in Charleston in 1860, the Democratic party had remained true to its principles and to the constitution. During three-fourths of that time it had controlled the government, and under that control all had gone prosperously and well, and in accord? ance with the traditions and genius of the fathere. And now, gentlemen, when this party has put forth a platform, a broad platform, a platform of even and exact justice on weich gentlemen from every State can stand, is it any wonder that the newd creates rejoic? ing from one end of the country to the other, and particularly in the down-trodden and op? pressed Soutb ? At the commencement of the war and din of battle, liberty was stricken dow the close of the war he, who was the ac! edged representative of the power of tbf ed! -States in peace and in war, assnri (hat we should be restored to the on certain conditions. One of. these that we should' take the amnesty another that we ehonld recognize i; solemn forms of law the abolition of ery. No matter what were the view ideas of the majority of our people on subjects, most or them took the amnesty and the abolition of slavery was forma darned. We were then quietly inform?e we wereno nearer, in fact not as near re tion to the Union as when Lee surrende: Appomattox. We had repealed the ordin of secession, we had recognized the freed our former slaves, we had taken all tl quired oaths: but because our leaders hi vised ns to do it, because it had been dc manfully and openly, it was to be an i to us rather than a benefit. We were? 1 fore, next required by the same solemn : of law to declare that almost every p nent man among us, every man whe taken an oath to support the Constitut: the United States, as an executive o dicial officer, and afterwards fought fo independence, should be perpetually qualified from holding office; that almost i man in whom we had reposed trust and i dence in peace and war should be disqual This we regarded as a dishonorable wron) an inexplicable shame. For we felt that i not the leaders, bat the great heart o people^right or wrong, that forced on the test. We could not and would not degra disgrace the men who had refused to leav country, and had remained to share wi: our fortune, good or evil, as it might chan be. The Seeons traction acts were then pa and they have been carried out, and the ti ons have been held under them. But just at this time, when the Beconstru scheme of Congress seems about complet great-party bas arisen, formed of gentle from all parts of the country, and they ha\ vited us to stand upon tile Democratic form. As for the candidatos of the Democratic ty, they are the choice of the North, the and the West. One of them, the candids! the Presidency, is known wherever the : lish tongue is spoken. Bis life has been siBtent m its purity, both in hisrprivate public relations. "He is consistent. His w life has been given to the Democratic pi He is no trickster, no dancer on the edi trifleB. The candidate for the Vice-Presidency opposed to secession on principle. He true and acted up to his convictions. And he remains true to the other part of the I ocratic platform, and enters the contes constitutional government. It has been truly said by the speakers preceded me that this is a serious strug The Radical party has struggled, as no o Sarty ever did struggle, for power-from me when they made their first nomina for the Presidency until the election of A ham Lincoln. When Lincoln was elected ( seemed to have the game in their own ha: but it was suddenly blocked by thesecessio ?he Southern States. Blood flowed in tom -a national debt was piled np mountains h Again at the close of the war they aeeme second time to have won their game; the was again dashed from their expectant 1 By a mysterious dispensation of Provide their standard-bearer was removed, ant Southerner placed in the Presidential ch and from that time to this he bas stood a gr constitutional breakwater, protecting us fi the angry waves of Radical mahgnity. Tl only hope has been to impeach and hang h And now the Radical party is playing for same stake which they thought they had \ eight years ago, but which by some mischa they have been continually prevented ft pocketing. And they are this tune determii to move all the Gods of Heaven, and, if n be, all the Gods of hell to secure succ< They are playing for power, for plunder, revenge, for money. They are playing $500,000,000 a year, the greatest money sti that men ever contended for, from the fl contest between Cain and Abel to the pres time. And, they intend./as or nefas, right wrong, to seize the stakes. The Northern people are now fighting constitutional hberty, for the grand principl traditions and glory of their forefathers-i the principles of freedom, and for a wh man's government. They are fighting for 1 SrincipTes which render sacred the memory efleraon, the immortal. They are fighting : the principles that gave birth to the noble pt he spirit which actuated Pendleton in yieldi all his own well founded claims to the mot gentleman and wise statesman of New Yoi They are fighting for that nobhat declarati of principles-the Democratic platform, wbi combines every grand and nobie principle th was ever enunciated by Henry Clay, or thu dered forth' bv Daniel Webster in the Senate the cation. They are fighting for every gio ons sentiment that clustered around Ashlan or nestled in the shades of Marshfield. Th are fighting for every principle which makes revere the memory of him who was "first Eeace, first in war, and first in the hearts is countrymen." They are fighting for eve principle that makes country dear, home swe and life pleasant. And if this is what the Northern people a fighting for, what are we fighting for? V are fighting to be released from oppressio bondage and tyranny. And I, as one Amei can citizen, hope that the blessing of the go era ment will not hereafter be denied us h cause we happen to reside south of the Pot mac. I have only one other remark to make, ai that is, that even under the present form State government, in no election hold can ai one be prevented from voting for any disqual fixation other than that of felony. Under tl constitutional amendment, every man is ent tied to vote, and it is the bounden duty < every man to vote in the cause of hberty ai constitutional government. Now, gentlemen, a great deal has been sai about war, and it has been often declared tbi some men in the South are even now prepare for and contemplating war. This is all Bimpl ridiculous in face of the well-known fact tnt men have been brutally dragged from the homes and subjected to punishment after moe trials before military commissions, in th very presence of Confederate officers, whOE blast upon the bucle would be worth even no a thousand men 1 No, gentlemen ! If th flames of war are ever Idndled in this coui try again, they will rise far beyond our kei It will como" from the party who hav dictated power, and who have power to retai it bv force aa they have gained it by lraud, jut as Caesar and Cromwell, and every tyrant an usurper before them has done. Or it will com from the backbone of tho Northern Democracy who entered into the war after the country wa engaged in it, as they supposed, for the const; tution and the flag ; who fought with the vie1 that by a short, sharp and decisive conflict the might preserve that constitution and flag? men who having won the conflict will not sut mit. to be cajoled out of the fruits of their vic tory. If there ia any war it must come fror one of thoae two parties. The way to prevent war is to elect the me: who represent the true interests and genius c the people. To vote for the party which com bines all that was noble and good in the ol Democratic and Whig parties. If this part; is not successful, the sun of constitutional lib erty will go down before noon, it will go dowi in blood, it will go down like stars which se to rise no more. This cry of war ia a mero Radical tries There ia "nothing they would like better thai frequent repetitions of the New Orleans riot That would give them political capital, for th lack of which they are now bankrupt. Wi must avoid this danger. Let us remain firn but cool, and the red streaks along the sky wil herald the glorious sun of constitutional lib erty. The meeting then adjourned, and the vas audience went in search of the feast that wai ready for them. A heavy rain came up anc damaged their ardor, but it could not preveni the gathering from being a great eocial anc political success. The marshal and bis assist? ants seemed to be ubiquitous, and the com? mittee in the arrangements were untiring in their efforts to moke every wheel run smoothly. ALMOST A MOT. Just before the departure of the Augusta train, at 5:30 P. M., Pleasant Goode, one of the colored speakers, was attacked by a colored man, who Btruck him with a stick, cutting his hp and face. A crowd of negroes collected, knives were withdrawn, and there was every prospect of a bloody riot, when Generals Hampton and Butler appeared, and succeeded at last in calming the excited people. The as? saulting negro was arrested, and the werunda of Goode were carefully dressed. Only the presence of such influential men as the two gentlemen already named could have averted the collision which the attack upon Goode waa intended to cause. THE DEPAI?ITF.E. Moat of the visitors were on their way home by sundown, and the rest bade, thia morning, farewell to Aiken with the pleasantest remem? brances of tbe Democratic celebration of Au? gust 4, 1668. tXommrrnai.
