COLUMBIA. Wednesday Morning, May 22. MW More Laboren for the Work. .? From the efforts being pnt forth by tho Republican party for the po? litical evangelization of thc South, one would think that our people, both white and black, were steeped in political ignorance and totally unable to use the few rights left to them. Tho Nation ni Committee of that party hr.ff on address, in which they call upon the foithfnl throughout the | country to contribnto money to pay t^e expenses of thoso speakers they af? sendiog South. They ?'desire to prosecute a systematic and thorough canvass- of the Southern States by the most officient speakers of both races. " Whilo free speech has full sway SQ far as these orators are concerned, jct. Ltoaidra -thc turmoil and excite? ment generally attendant on large political j gatherings, there are other ovils which, moro than likely, will follow thc efforts now being made to enlighten tho newly-made voters hem the Republican stand-point, and these evils will be increased in pro? portion to tho frequency of these moctlo|j?. . At tho present time, the labor'f?rce of thc South is sufficiently disorganized, without any increase of causes to make it more so, which po? litical agitation is certain to do. What yre ot the South most need at this time is quiet and trauquility, and permission to go on quietly with the necessary work of raising bread staffs and provisions. The meetings which are being held in various parts of the South necessarily withdraw a largo amount of labor from the field, where it is so much needed. The Now York Sun, iu noticing thc address referred to, very pithily re? marks: "We think, on the whole, that thc project of the Republican leaders for raising money to be used iu the South, ia a very good one; but wo respect? fully suggest, thnt whilo hundreds of the freedmen aro suffering for bread which that money would buy, we havo not heard of any suffering from a scarcity of stump speeches." As a general rule, thus far tho colored pcoplo have behaved very orderly at these meetings; neverthe? less, wc do not think they are boue fltted by so much haranguing. Thoir rights and privileges have been clearly defined by Congress, and will be respected and protected by the white people of the South, ns well as by the authorities. If let alone, wo are con? vinced thnt both rucc-s here would work in harmony, and heartily, for the) recuperation of the section which both claim as their home, and which sorely needs thoir united efforts to restore it to prosperity. - The Supreme Court Decidions. As our readers are aware, wo were not among those who expected any political relief from a decision of tho Supreme Court against thc constitu? tionality of the reconstruction Acts of Congress. "We are, therefore, not disappointed by its action in dismiss? ing thc suits brought by thc States of Georgia and Mississippi. These States had learned and able counsel, and very powerful arguments were made in their behalf before the Court, and tho result has been failure. From the first, wc have urged action under the laws of Congress, and now that tho faintest hope which some enter? tained having vanished, wc trust that the work of reconstruction will pro? gress smoothly, for there need be no help looked for outside of its require? ments. It is suited in some of our North? ern exchanges that Judge Sharkey has gone homo with tho intention of arresting thc General commanding in that military district for treason. We hope thi3 is only a sensational story, for, ns we havo said elsewhere, the Southern States need nothiu<;so muc h as tranquility, as freedom from agita? tion of any kind, and such a stop HS that said to bc contemplated by Gov. Sharkey would creato a fresh excite? ment, without the slightest chance of any benefit being derived from it. Tho military com mand?is will pro? ceed with their work of re-organiza? tion despite any such efforts. The true policy of the Southern people is to endeavor to make the best of the situation and got as speedily back to Congress as possible on the basis of thc present law. Tennessee people ure askiug for military protection against Brown? low'fl colored regulators. Mr. Perry anil ?la Letter? MKS&ES. T^tTTQKfl: We. JJ ave care. fully r?ad the tyree letted pahlishell by theron. B/F. Per*y4kdv||ory to the citizens ol the StaW iii thtfr prp jpeut ?nomulous. cottditiou. Thelfe letters, addressed to the public, are opeu to criticism without au imputa? tion of a personal attack. Their con? ception may hnve been dispassionate, but they ni-e certainly dogmatical, illusory, ill-timed*and mischievous, and the last one is ti mongrel argu- j ment on both sides of the question, which, if worth anything at all, proves that Mr. Pei ry is, ns he has always been, consistently wrong. No inspiration of prophecy is claim? ed, but Mr. Perry continually pro? phecies, and always affirmatively; his sooth-saying should enlighten us from a negative stand-point, aud fore? tell the ?csult if a majority of the ballots aro endorsed "No Conven? tion. " Ho predicts a direful future if we hold a convention; does this argue less evil consequences if we hold no convention? Suppose a ma? jority of the voters of South Caroli uo-white and black-coincide with Mr. Terry, and vote as ho suggests, will ho.guarantee a short-lived mili? tary government oyer the State, and a - moro, speedy restoration to the Union, with our oTcl Stale Constitu? tion intact? Can Mr. Perry or any other sauo man anticipate such a po? litical future for auy of tho Southern States? Does he not kuow and ex? perience thc fact, that South Carolina is virtually aud practically as much out of the Union as if secession had been a success? Is ho, and are we not all, painfully but forcibly taught by the occasionally published 'orders from military headquarters, that we aro but conquerpd provinces, nt tho mercy of our conquerors, aud that State sovereignty is extinct? If such is not tho case, wherefore thoso mili? tary sub-divisions of our State? If we have a singlo individual right re? served to the State, why can we not, as a State, opon our courts and exe? cute the laws of the laud? If we ara a State, how is it that Gov. Orr con? tinues to occupy the gubernatorial chair by mere sufferance? These, with many others too patent, are facts, and melancholy facts, which provo that we as a State may claim none other than the simple right ol obedience, if this be a right. If. then, the former citizens of South Carolina voluntarily obey tho lnws imposed upon them, tho enfran? chised class will Le required to do thc same. By this means, increased pri vilcgos will bo given to one class, while additional rights will be securec to the other. The reverse of thii course would create autagouism be tween the two races, and array tin "powers that be" in open hostility against thc whites. Then why "kiel against the pricks," UH Mr. Perry ad I vises? True, the Reconstruction Ac allows the ballot to declare conven tiou or no convention, in letter, bu its spirit, and the tenor of all tin legislation of the recent Congress I plainly reveals the inevitable neccssi ty of vital alterations in our Stat Constitution, which, if not made lr ourselves, will b > made by Congress Mr. Perry may say this would bo un constitutional. Suppose it would be what is a constitution more than ; mere parchment to a radical Con gross? Let the vetoes of the Presi dent and the recent dodgings of th Supremo Bench answer this question Another point. We think Mr. Per ry has discovered a mare's nest, am Hushed a bugbear in the plurality negro-vote, which frightens only him self. Nearly one-half the Districts o tho Stato have a white population equal to, if not more numerous, tba the black. In those Districts wher tho blacks are in the majority, doe ! it necessarily follow that the blac males o vor twenty-one years of ag Tare moro numerous thau the whit males of the same age? It one i eight of the whites before the wn were voters, we think it qucstionabl whether ono in ten of the blacks wer of that ago and sex which would er titlo them, under enfrnnchisemeul to vote; for it has always been a coi ceded fact, that among the negrot there were more women and childre thau amongst the white ruco. Whs is the case to-day? Tho youths c South Carolina, who have grown int manhood since 1803, will, in all pr?: bility, oxcoed the number of votei lost by disfranchisement and tho wai Hence, in a general State vote, th aggregate would only be diminisbe by tho number of emigrants sine the close of the war, which would b a heavy loss, we admit, but nothing comparatively, to the emigratio of the blacks. During the war, tkei must have been a very small per ceul age of an increase amongst tho mal blacks, for there was annually a cor staut iiow of these people to othc States, nnd much the largest portio of the black emigrants since thu wu has been voters. The disparity i numbers, of all ages and soxes, befoi the war, was about lOO.OJO in fav< of tho blacks. I f a census were take to-day, we believe the white inhab tauts of South Carolina would nu a ber 300,000, while the blacks woul not more than reach 350, Uow. Then if tho 300,000 whites gave D7,(M votes, we think it exceedingly que.? tiouable whether the 350,000 blacl would give more than 35,000, or, i most, as many as 37,000. Then, if til two classes should unfortunately 1 arrayed in political hostility agAirji linn mi-- -rrrwr? "^Af11* rr* >r nwi each other-which wuj most fissured W be the ease, if such men ns Mr. Perry and Senator Wilson are to be listened to-cnn not the whites, with eauat numbers, all the property and more intelligence, pilot the old ship of State once more into a haven of peace and qniot? If they cannot, then they should yield the helm to the other class. But there is nnotber point. Sup? pose the registered blacks. to out? number the registered whites in n States registration; where did Mr. Perry learn that the blacks would, to a mau, desert their white acquaint? ances, and cling to such high-scented scallions as Wilson, Kelley and others? We cannot believe it. There is too much fidelity-call it intelligence, if you please-among thc masses of the colored population throughout the ? State, for them to be caught up and led astray hy tho clap-trap arguments of snell demagogues ns these. We grnut yon, that in our cities, where so many hundreds of idlers congre? gate, there may be seeds of discord sown and evil results follow, but we cannot anticipate any such conse? quences throughout the country, where thc industrious laborers ure in constant dealings with their humane employers, nnd by whose example and advice thoy must be influenced. At least, we arc willing to risk the couscqueuoes, and would advise every true son of South Carolina to be re? gistered who cnn, and to vote for a convention. A PLANTER. No DANGER or CONFISCATION.-Wo j arc pleased to receive from the New York lurnea tho assurance that no I fear could possibly be more ground? less than the one entertained by many Southern people that there is danger of thc confiscation of their property. There arc, says the Times, "as many people in tho North in favor of repu? diating tho national debt as there are in favor Of confiscating vhc estates of Southern property-holders. Aud yet the national credit is as strong as the National Union." Ar.4perren OCCURRENCE AND MIRA? CULOUS ESCAPE.-During the heavy shower about 8 o'clock, last evening, a party of ladies and gentlemen, seven in number, while waiting for the street cars, took shelter under the porch of St. Michael's Church. While standing under the porch, the lightning struck and ran down the lightning rod, spreading along the ground, knocking down four of the party, stunning another, but very providentially and miraculously not injuring any of them seriously. Mr. H. H. Williams, jr., was thrown from the position in which he was stand- ! iug. near tho church door, into the middle of the street, Hat on his back, but managed to rise and make his i way into thc guard house. The fluid had passed dowu thc left leg of his j pantaloons, tearing the cloth in strips, \ and bursting the seams on both sides , of the boot leg. tearing the sock and | singing the leg. His brother, Kev. ; E. F. Williams, suffered almost iden? tically in the same way, being struck on the loft leg, tearing open his boot and sock, and slightly scorching tho skin, but simply kuocking him down where he stood. Miss Highborn ex? perienced a very severe shock, being knocked down and her gaiters torn open. Mrs. Williams, wife of Mr. H. H. Williams, jr., escaped with a shock and a slight singing of her dress, which took fire. Miss Burns received a slight shock. At tho time? of the occurrence, the party were nil for a moment or so completely enve? loped in smoke. The steeplemau was also knocked over by tho shock. I Charleston Courier, '?1st. FATAL EXPLOSION.-On Monday afternoon, as several freedmen were engaged in the dangerous experiment of uuloadiug an old torpedo, which washed ashore on John's Island, an explosiou occurred, and five of the party were instantly killed.
