whioh will make them the enfranchised
thralls of 60,000 white men. We admit
that the-evils under whioh the white ci ti?
sons now groan are the result of univera
al suffrage. . Wo know that tho necessary
iguoranoe Of the blacks is-the reason
why prejudice is stronger than House,
and why; moreover, the blacks, who
hayo .tho power?.exert it without regard
to tho wishes and interests of the whites.
And, no oure can bo -permanent which

The May oonvontion may satisfy them?
selves that there is no illegal debt, and
may secure the postponement to March,
1872, of the tax now mrj.de du? in No?
vember next. But this will still leave us
under tho heel of tho General Assembly
this will not give the white property
holders any loud and potential voice in
the framiug of laws aud the imposition
of taxes. We cannot deprivo any man
who now Votes of the privilege of voting.
Tbe law, in faat, must be so modified as
to protect tbe minority without en?
croaching upon the just rights of the
majority. There is thon '?uly one way
put of the woods, and that is by accept?
ing the principio of the representation
of minorities. This does not limit the
suffrage in any sbape or form. What it
gives to the white minority in the low
country it accords, by the samo law, to
the black minorities in the upper Coun?
ties. It is equal in its ope ration. It is
simple and easily understood. It is the
one form of universal suffrage whioh
protects the fow without injuring the
many. For we hold it to be an eternal
principle of justice and of right that
mere numbers shall not have an unlimit?
ed control over tbe lives and fortunes of
the people. The majority shall rnle, but
the minority must be able to raise their
voice in the deliberative assemblies of
the State. It is wrong that in the white
Counties the colored element should
have no representation. It is equally
wrong that iu the low oountry, as in
Charleston, the Conservatives should not
have a single vote. Tho principle' of
minority representation is fairness and
justice to all. What fairness is there in
the absolute majority role-a mle which
leaves the Conservatives in the General
Assembly as 20 to 100, while tho relative
voting strength is as 6 to 9?

Two HUNDRED Giana ON FIRE-BE
MABKABLY" EXCITING SCENE IN A. CHURCH.
A very remarkable scene was 'witnessed
in St. ' Mary's Church, Williamsburg,
la?t Sunday. It carno very near proving
a tragic matter; fortunately, however,
tho activity of the congregation, aided
by the pastor, prevented any serious
consequences.
At the morning uerviaes it was ar?
ranged to have 400 young girls to par?
take of their first communion, and they
marched into the church at the appoint?
ed hour. The sight was imposing, and
there was a large congregation drawn to?
gether by the services. The children
were arrayed in white dresses, wore thin
white ganze veils, and each carried a
lighted caudle. When the head of the
little procession had reached tbe further?
most end of the church, one of the girls
dropped her candle, and in stooping to
recover it set fire to her veil. The flume
spread with lightning-like rapidity. In?
stantly a great commotion arose, and
before the congregation: had-arisen to
its feet the sheet of fire had. spread half
way along the line, aud the veils of 200
girls were on fire. The utmost conster?
nation was produced. Those whoso veils
were on fire ran to the main altar, where
Father- McDonald was engaged in bap?
tising a number of adults. The bap?
tismal water was thrown upon them, and
with the aid of several of bis congrega?
tion, Father McDonald succeeded iu
subduing the flames and restoring order.

WANTED, A MILWON HEIR.-The
officers of the War Department aro pro?
secuting inquiries to obtain evidence ol
tho death or whereabouts of Frederick
William Keyser, a native of Germany,
and formerly a Union soldier. Wheu
lust heard from, he was a paroled pi i
soner at Wilmington, North Carolina,
lying sick and not expected to live; bul
whether he died or recovered is no
known. Inquiry for more definito in?
formation as to his fate is now made al
the instance of the Prussian Govern
ment, who have applied, through tin
Consnl at Hessr-Darmstadt, to our Stat?
Department. It appears from tho cor
respondenco that this soldier is ono oj
tho heirs of an estate, valued at $1,500,
000, and tho singular feature of tho casi
consists in the fact, as stated ou Ibo Ocr
man side, that tho estate cannot bi
divided for seventy years after tho do
cease of its former owner, unless tbi
death or whereabouts of this ono heil
can be established by satisfactory evi
de nco. - Wfishington Patriot.

himself up With imaginary wrongs ana

tion to rah- down iii fino stylo. He
touched, himself off, .and for fifteen
minutes, roared like ? threshing-ma?
chine. Ho brought his No. 14 military
boots down like patent steam hammers
on bot iron. Ho swung bis arms aboat
like tho wings of a wiud-mill. His deli
cute mouth opened in nu effort to get out
big*words until it looked wide and high
enough to take in Webster's Dictiounry.
He imagiued himself ot the head of his
gallant men, nod charged also iu imagi?
nation.
After ho had worn himself out, and the
whiskey began to dio down, tho Sim,
which shines for all, quietly replied: "I
know very well what's tho matter with
you, Major; you tried to borrow three
dollars of me yesterday, and I refused to
lend it." Tho gory Major of tho Na?
tional Guard wilted in a moment, for he
had, on the day previous, mistaken the
Sun correspondent for somebody elso,
and endeavored to raise the wind to tho
extent of threo dollars.
Two white officials wautcd satisfaction
and called on Pugh, the aforesaid corres?
pondent, to get it. Ho listened to their
tale and replied: "I'm not used to drink?

make au exception this time; come in

Tho Jews aro trusted outrageously in
Poland, a couutry which was once moat
favorable to them. The latest Russiau
ukase in regard to them, forbids them
to wear the national Jewish costume,
(long gowns, caps aud ringlets,) aud even
contains prescriptions of the costume
they must substitute for it, viz: a long
coat, covering the knees, and looro
trowsers tucked inside tho boots. If
freo'Jews prefer the "German" stylo of
dress they may use it, but they must
shave their chins quite bare. Imprison?
ment is the penalty awaiting those who
disobey. Jewesses must cover their
heads with caps, and only such as aie
bald, or have cutaneous diseases may
wear perukes, and the police aro actually
empowered to examine Jewesses and FCO
wu.ether*or not they wear false hair. The
reason of this singular ukase, which re?
minds ono of the days of Richard I,
and John in England, and of Ferdinand
and Isabella in Spain, is that'German
.'Jews acted patriotically in the Into
Franco-Prussian war, and the Russian
Emperor believes that the common cos
tamo of Christians and Jews in Ger?
many led to this satisfactory result. So
he will have all persons dross alike in bis
dominions, so that when war comes they
may aat alike.
