A Puris correspondent of tko New
York Evening Pusl recently expressed
much commiseration for the political
condition of tho Parisians, who, iu
the midst of constant festivities and
amusements, aro said to refuse to be
happy, because- they aro not allowed
the right of free discussion. This
inestimable boon is withheld. from
Frenchmen, and this correspondent
of a radical journal, who has no sym?
pathy for those who ore denied it in
America, is inconsolable over its limi?
tation in France. The sympathy of
politicians of this sort with the down?
trodden .".brc.v"!, ??iilu iuojf ?ne trend?
ing down other people at home, tho
Baltimore Sun compares to tho senti?
mentality of Sterne, who, neglecting
his living mother, wasted "his sor?
rows o'er a dying ass." As for the
political discontents of Paris, it
would be strange if such did not ex?
ist. When it is considered that it
has been nearly twenty years siuce
France has had a revolution, thal
society hos onjoyed, during all that
time, great security, if not entire
liberty, and that Frenchmen, likt
some other people, do not alway?
know when they are well off, it it
time that a mercurial race should re
fuse to be bored any longer by th?
monotonous quiet and order, an<]
should avengo the outrage by a mag
nificont display of revolutionary fira
works, showers of shooting stars,
making the real stars palo for a time,
and all kinds of noisy and brilliant
rockets, coming down in sticks, nnc
leaving everything as dark as before
No experienced statesman in Franc<
can expect that if a Republic shoulc
succeed the Empire, it would lasi
longer than the Republic of 1848, 01
that tho politicians who would corni
into power, would be more hones
and unselfish than those who, ii
1848, belied all their professions o
republican simplicity and integrity
as soon as they had the opportunity
of official display and extravagance
far surpassing tho Government o
Louis Phillippe, in the worst fault
which they attributed to his adminh
tration. If tho French people, c
any other people, aro wiso, they wi
not found great expectations on a
exchange of the Government of dei
pots for that of demagogues, who ad
knavery and hypocrisy to the othc
vices of tyrants.

TUE ?STATES or THU UNION.-S
many new States have been admitte
into tho Union within a few yeal
past, that the public find it diflieu
to "keep the run" of thom. W
frequently read in tho papers an
hear men speak of the "thirty-si
States of this Union." Even in Coi
gross, members sometimes speak <
this number of States ns tho prop?
number, while a majority of thi
body make the number much le:
than thirty-six. There are thirt<
seven States in tho Uniou^ uccordin
to the conservativo doctrine, and i
ordor that tho public may know ar
not forget their names, we furnish

CONFISCATION.-This idea seeme
have been altogether abandon

Till HU DAY.
CHAHLHSTOW, S. C., January 10,
18G8. -Tfie Convention, assembled nt
10 a. m., und was called to order by
the President, A. G. Muckey. The
roll was called,, and sevonty-nine
members answering, the President
announced a quorum present.
Mr. JU ( \ Dunoan moved a recon?
sideration ot' the resolution passed
yesterday regarding the election of
officers, so as to amend by leaving it
to the President to invite any clergy?
man present to opon the Convention
.with prayer. ??
Rev.B. F. Randolph opposed tho
adoption of the amendment, on the
ground that they would, perhaps,
frequently be without a clergyman in
attendance, and also that it was
! aguinst tha practice of Congress and
other legislative assemblies to seleot
one of their own members for open?
ing the proceedings with prayer.
From the fact, also, that clergymen
in the Convention might conscien?
tiously differ, and each see fit to
advocate their peculiar views, he
hoped the members would BOO the
propriety of electing a chaplain out?
side of the body.
The question being taken on the
original motion, it was adopted.
Several motions were made to alter
the minutos, with a view of expung?
ing that portion relating to the elec
I tion o? sergenut-at-urm8, tho object
being to oust E. S. Conway, colored,
the person elected to that office, many
members having come to the conclu?
sion, since his election., that he was
not fit for the place.
The result of the election for mes?
sengers was in favor of W. S. Elliott,
a very black and vory civil negro,
apparently about twontv-ono years of
age, aud J. D. Price, white.
J. J. Wright moved that wc do
what we can to sustain the Charlenton
Daily Netra and Courier, for tho cor?
rect reports which they have given of
the proceedings of this body, and go
as fax as becomes gentlemen, to de?
stroy tho Mercury.
W. G. Parker moved to lay it on
the tnblo, but failed.
W. G. Whipper hoped that thc
motion would be lost, and trusted
that the question raised would not bc
sustained, and that we will go inte
no bickering with newspapers, oi
their proprietors. Some papers havt
made fair reports of tho proceedings,
while others have burlesqued them.
The Convention was assembled foi
other purposes than to praise or cen
sn re newspapers, and, when our de
liberations are ended, und wo kuov
what course tho papers pursue, i
will be time enough to take action
He cared nothing whether the edito
of the Mercury came there to bnr
lesqoe the proceedings or members o
the Couvontion. He wants to niaki
money.
Randolph thought that to suppor
the resolution would be to endors
the sentiments of tho Courier am
Ncics. I do not understand tba
either of them now support tho Re
publican party, and I therefore op
pose tho resolution.
Wright withdrew his motion.
B. F. Randolph, mulatto proachei
delegate from Orangeburg, no'
moved that the reporters of the pre*
bo admitted to seats on the floor c
the house.
JJ. S. Langley, a woolly-heade
negro from Pennsylvania, moved n
nmondment, that the reporter of th
Mercury bo excluded. Ho did nc
propose to extend fucilities to th
editor of tho Mercury to burlesqu
the Convention. He thought tin
tho way to support the dignity of th
Convention was to treat those wh
came there not as gontlemen, us tho
really were.
F. J. Moses, jr., white ?lelegat
from Sumter, hoped that the discni
sion would not be closed until ovei
one had been heard. He saw dung?
lurking in tho motion, ami for ?
cogent n reason, it was rational tin
he should oppose it. It was not, 1
said, tho business of the Con ven tic
to condemn thc Mercury. They hr
nothing to ?lo with its opinions. Y.
did not agreo with tho other men <
the Convention, that men who di
fered with them in politics there!
lost their standing as gentlemo:
The Convention had no right to e
deavor to take away the patronage
any paper in South Carolina, and 1
hoped the motion would be lot
Great God, shall we abuso a paper c
account of its political opinions?
N. O. Parker, white, delegate fro
Barnwell, with true Yankee shrew
ness, suggested that if they attemp
ed to exclude tho Mercury, in tl
present stato of public opiuion
; South Carolina, they would only
doing good to that paper, and hm
iug themselves. Ho proposed
give it ropo enough, and it wou
hang itself.
W. G. Whippor regretted oxoee
ingly that there wore newspapers w
chose to burlesque their procecdiu/
but it was duo to tho Mercury to tj
that it had not abused its privilef
or transcended its rights. It had
right to burlesque, and tho Oonv<
tion would only bo bel i Ul i ti g itself
interfere.
On motion ?>f T. K. Sasportas, 1
whole matter was laid upon tho tab
W. J. McKinlay moved flint <
reporters of the press be invited
seats within the bar.
A resolution was offered by J.
Wright that Geu. Conby, Gen. Scott,
Peu. ditz and Gov. Orr, bo iuvited
to seats on the floor.
The endeavor to amend by addiug.
tho name of Mayor Gaillard, pro?
duced considerable) discussion. Do
Large, Parker and Langley, favor?
ing, and Richmond opposing, on the
ground that Mayor Gaillard not only
was no greut gun, but was not in sym?
pathy with tho Convention. The
amendment was afterwards accepted
by tho mover of the resolution.
Dr. J. L. Newell said Gov. Orr had
been very lenient towards them, and
had advocated the adoption of the
Reconstruction Acts ever einco last
spring or last July. He would go
bask still farther, and although tho
Governor did not actually support
the Republican party, he did it as far
as he could. He had never thrown
any obstacles iu the way of the party,
but upon all occasions no had favored
the calling of the Convention. He
hoped, therefore, they would give
him a warm and cordial welcome.
F. J. Moses, Jr., offered a resolu?
tion inviting Gov. Orr to address tho
Convention.
W. B. Nash, of Columbia, said he
was opposed to the resolutiou invit?
ing tho Governor to address the Con?
vention. I am not, he said, willing
to concede to him a right he has re?
fused me-tho right of free speech.
Gov. Orr objects to persons outside
of the Convention exercising the
right of free speech, and I am op?
posed to allowing him tho freedom oi
this Convention.
I hold in my hand nu order ol
Gen. Cunby, by which I was called
upon to stand before a militar]
board, to give nu account of a speech
I delivered at Fairfield, in behalf ol
tho Republican party, at which Gov.
Orr took umbrage. I am proud tc
say that a board of military officer?
have decided that I had a right to saj
what I said upou tho occasion. Ai
Gov. Orr opposed me, I am oppos?e
to Gov. Orr's exercising the right ol
freo speech in this hall. I believe it
ibo privilege of thc right of free
speech, but under no circumstance!
will 1 bo willing to coucede tho ri git
of this hall to Gov. Orr. I nm no
ono of those men willing to bov
down and lick tho boot, because Gov
Orr occupies tho position of Gover
nor of South Carolin?. I do no
believe his sentiments are in accord
anco with the sentiments of th
majority of tho people of South Ca
rob na. As ho is the representative o
a minority, I do not bolievo we wouh
honor the people of South Carolin
by inviting Gov. Orr to address thi
Convention. I heard a remark tba
Gov. Orr endorsed the reconstruct^)
since last July. Ho endorses it ns h
understands it, but not as this Coi
volition understands it.
I have had frequent interviews wit
him. His disposition is to draw th
Republicans over as ho thinks the
should pr?. I do uot think anythin
he could say to us would give us an
credit. I think if wo would iuvil
Gov. Orr to address this Conventioi
he should bo invited to address
from the outside of tho building i
the street. Wo ure sent here by 01
constituency to try to provide a Coi
stitution for South Carolina. We il
not come here for the purpose <
gettiug converts to Republicanism
or, like Gov. Orr, of making politic
flights like flying squirrels from 01
political treo to another. Rut Coi
gross has determined that reconstrn
tiou shall be effected, and he hi
come to the conclusion that Congre
is not going to back out. He hi
said to me that I had better wait ar
seo whether reconstruction was goii
to be a failure or success. He to
mo not to join tho Democratic pal?
er the Republican party. He want*
me to set upon the fence and ufte
wards to make one of his fly ii
squirrel leaps. Ido not proposo th
dov. Orr shall teach ns any lesso
of political lofty tumbliug. If ]
comes hero for the purpose of makii
any converts-for tho purpose of o
witnessing one of his lofty politic
tumblings, let him make them or
side of this hall. I hope tho resol
timi will bo voted down.
I come from a part of thc count
where tho people are Republican
I como from a District where tl
people aro going to stand by tho H
publican party and tho Reconstrn
tiou Acts. Governor Orr tumbles
fast that it makes tho head dizzy
watch him. While wo wero on t
train coming hen?, Governor Orr tc
a member of the Convention ho w
coming down to see about hom
steads. Ile said ho did not ca
what they did at Charleston, whetl
they called him negro lover or ot
thing else. He wanted to advoci
homesteads. Governor Orr is in t
position that tho old woman si
President Tyler was when he tri
to torn a somersault from the WI
io tho D?mocratie party; left hut
ing upside down, with tho he
down. The Conservati veSj ?try
kick him otV from tho Conservati
tree, and the Republicans aro willi
to lot him hang by his heels until
his brains run down into his hoi
and ho will dio of political apople:
W. (I. Whipper, delegate fn
Beaufort, but a negro lawyer fi<
Detroit, Michigan. His points we
1st. That Nash was tho last man
speak about tumbling, for if th?
was a man iu the State who had nm
an extraordinary tumble, that n
was Beverly Nash. 2d. That if (
?
tumbled in the right direotion, ho
should be encouraged so todo. 3d.
That the party, by driving off such
men as O?r, isolated itself, and pre?
vented all additions to its strength.
4th. That Governor Orr wat, from
his position as a prominent officer
and political leader of tho State, well
acquainted with its affairs', and could
givo the Convention valuable infor?
mation; and 5th and lastly, that it
was extremely desirable that the
Convention and tho existiug Provi?
sional Government of the State
should, as far as possible, act in
unison with each other.
Mauy other speeohes were made
on the same subject, but these are
enough to give an idea of the dis?
cussion.
In the course of the dehnte, one
of the delegates anuouuced the pain?
ful fact that their proceedings cost
$1,000 por day, and that, as discuss?
ing whether Orr should addrRwi the
Convention or not. would probably
take half a day, and listeniug to his
address another half a day, this pre?
cious speech of his Excellency would
probably cost Si,OOO.
Tho motion finully prevailed, and
Governor Orr wns invited to address
tho Convention, at the Club House,
Friday night.
A letter of resignation was received
from E. J. Conway, the Hergeant-at
nrms, and tho resignation was accept?
ed.
The Convention adjourned to meet
to-morrow, at 10 a. m. Adjourned.
A BOLD ASSAULT AND MURD KB NEAR
DARLTNOTON C. H.-On Friday night,
about ll o'clock, five negroes, all of
them armed with guns or muskets,
entered the store of Mr. Mathew
Muldrow, near Darlington. The
clerk, Mr. Suggs, thinking that this
late visit was unusual, was alarmed,
and notified his wife, who woko up a
young man named Wyndham, who
was staying on the premises. Wynd?
ham took Iiis shot-gun and went into
tho back room of the storo for thc
purpose of watching the proceedings.
Tho negroes appeared to bo anxious
to purchase, but after somo time ono
went out, when Suggs shut tho door.
A short time after this, ono of the
negroes stamped three times and
whistled, and then a shot was fired
at Suggs, which killed him instantly.
Wyndham thou fired one barrel of his
gun, which was followed by a volley
from tile four guns. Mrs. Saggs,
who was in tho ante-room, was
wounded in the finger, arm and neck
by these shots, but Wyndham es?
caped, ne instantly fired his last
shot and rushed out and reported the
facts to Mr. Muldrow, the owuer of
tlio store, and to the military au?
thorities at Darlington. A detach?
ment of troops was sent ont the
next morning, and the sheriff, Mr.
W. B. Tim mons, assisted in the
search. Three of tho negroes were
captured, aud though \Vyudbnui
thinks that he shot one, tho remain?
ing two aro still at largo. Tho pri?
soners were examined and sent to
Marion jail. - Charleston News.

THE LECTURES AT THE CHAPEL.
We had tho pleasure, on Thursday
night, of hearing a lecturo from Dr.
Talley, on "Tho Impediments to
Medical Science." It is at all times
difficult to please a mixed audieuce,
but especially so with a professional
subject; but tho Doctor displayed
ability, tact and taste, and we con?
gratulate bim on his successful effort,
which .showed both medical aud scho?
lastic culture Thu next lecturo will
be delivered by Dr. John LeConto,
on Thnrsduy evening, January 23.
Among tho attractions of the lec?
tures at the University, is a fine band
of music, composed entirely of tho
young gentlemen of tho institution.
It is a noticeable feature, as it shows
progress in a certain direction. Wo
aro not among thoso who believe that
time devoted to music is time thrown
away. "Music has charms," ?fcc.
Every good thing may bo abused,
but there is no abuso here. Under
tho old regime, on occasions of pub?
lic exercises in tho Chapel, the colored
population were made to take part in
tho ceremony; now, tho faculty aud
students, disdaining help, have it all
to themselves. And tho music is
good-good enough to ?Ve by. Lest
this might bc regarded as a singular,
if not an irreverent, speech, wo will
add, that tho author of the volume,
"The Body and Mind," says, that
there can b^ no finor application of
music than to assist thc dyiugmau to
raise his thoughts to tho homo of
harmony and light; and that he
knew of ono who, when dying, had a
pious friend to sing and play the
harp until his spirit was liberated.
Wo liko nitisic-perhaps too much
and confess to being in tho category
of Sii Thomas Browne, tue author of
tho "Religio Medici" who says that
even "that tavern music, which
makes ono mau merry and another
mod, in me strikes a deep tit of de?
votion."
A vender of hoop-skirts was recent?
ly extolling his wares in preseneo of

should bo without ono of these

of contso, not," dryly responded the
husband, who was something of a
wag, "She .should be within it."
