A Legal Cpinicn. at
1 At the request of the Columbia Con- (,o
vAi tion, the Hon. A. Bout gave his le- j t,c
- - - .. a!
;! gal opinion in regard to the legality of ?"
T j portions of the Constitution adopted by 111
the Charleston Convention. It is as \
I Wl
1 follows: js (
Mr. Burt said in substance that it Ve
i was his earnest conviction that the y0
Constitution recently adopted is fatal tlii
to the welfare of both races.. It is C(),
an imposifion. lie agreed heartily ho
| with the sentiments expressed here, tei
and addressed himself to the white he
' man and the black man. I protest, vo
said the speaker, against that Consti- C0|
i tution, because it seeks to destroy Un
our past, our history?every land- ra,
| mark. No people on this continent nu
can endure the burden of taxation ju,
that that Convention imposes. All 0f
' taxation by that instrument is itn
posed upon real estate ami the sale of a
merchandize. The taxable property
is held by the one race, and the law- Up
* making power by the other. Not only ?u,
' the arduous appropriations are paid tnf
by the whites, but all others, with the du
exception of a small tax for educa- 0f
5 tional purposes. Without any quali- cu
* fication whatever, one class is allowed sp
to vote, while the other is disfran- re.
1 s.liico/l Tiivntinn u'itlinnt. rr>nvr<Ri?nt?- ?-V.
' tion is tyranny. Those who do not nn
hold the property, vote and make ra
laws; while the property owners are re:
| not allowed to vote for even a consta- 0f
ble Those who hold offices aje inci- jn
5 ted to increase taxation. Those voters 0f
- are not required to know a letter of it,
the alphabet. The holders of taxable
| property in South Carolina will not an
j be able to pay the taxes on that pro- th
pcrty. If a colored man acquires real Up
' estate?the object which he desires pa
?he is placed instantly in the char- sc.]
I acter of the white man. But by this piConstitution,
the colored man will not th
1 be j ble to hold property three years A!
' ?-jt will be taken from him to pay w|
the taxes. To those who favor that on
instrument, I would say that the
1 homestead exemption docs rot relieve Y(
the property from taxes. No judge? .so.
e even though he be from New York, bu
3 Obio or Africa?can decide that the re
3 homestead bill exempts from former cr
debts; it is only exempted from fu- ge
L tijre debts. I think it legitimate to Y<
impute to the Convention the desire ar
* to mislead honest people relative to th
* this homestead matter. What the yc
" people (Itvire is exemption from debts dc
2 contracted on the basis of property <*d
1 which lias since been swept awav.? Oi
* | The Constitution of the United States ar
ct declares that no State shall pass any an
^1 law impairing the obligation of eon- su
> tracts. That vaunted homestead law ca
e can protect no man from the jpay- re
'l inent of any debts contracted prior to iti
its passage, and ?hat is the relief wl
e which is needed. Th: speaker then th
- referred to that provision of the con- of
s stitution which annuls all debts for la
8 which slfeves were the -consideration, ar
The Chief Justiccof the United States S<
has expressed the opinion that they th
| are as binding as other-debts, and the po
upreme Court will so decide. He
'so asserted that there are fatal misikes
in the judicial article of the
oiistitution, which would work to the
ijury of both blacks and whites. So
jmbersome and conflicting are the
etaila of that Constitution, that we
ill be crushed by it. The impovcrhed
people cannot bear up under it.
very antagonism between the two
ices is incited by it. I call upon
cry white man and every?colored
an to unite, resist and defeat that
oiistitution, by every means our opressors
permit us to use. It is a
lty we owe the living and to the
?ad.
Address to the Colored People of South
Caroline
Among the documents issued by
elate Convention in Columbia, is
e following:
The Convention of the Democratic
irty of South Carolina feels it a
gh and bounden duty to speak to
>u candidly and earnestly, and with
) further apology than that our invests
are to a certain extent idenjal.
You have been suddenly put in
>si;ion to exercise certain powers,
e abuse of which may result disasously
to you and to us. Itisimposblc
that your present power can enire,
whethr you use it for good or
The whits race already outnuinrs
you in the ?South. Disease has
ade the mortality among you twice
.at it is among the whites, and the
te is daily increasing. Emigration
us carried off thousands of your color
distant States, while it already
gins to fill their places with whites
om Europe. Let not your pride,
>r yet your pretended friends flatter
u into the belief that you ever can
ever will, for any length of time,
rem the white men of the jS'outh.
in wni'lil Ii?ic tmvnr ennn ciis*li fi
cle, and its whole history and espeilly
the history of your race, gives
ground for the anticipation. Ptips,
however, you expect to attain
wcr l>y the aid of the radical party
theXorth. The/Ylinighty in liisw sin.
(perhaps t(? prevent the amalga n
of the separate races which lie
Bated and marked^) has implanted
every human breast a sentiment
lied the prejudice of race; and
;en this feeling is once aroused, it
one of the strongest and most unirsal
passions of our natures. When
ur face was among us slaves,
is sentiment slumbered, and only a
mpassion for you influenced every
nest heart?thoseainong yourmas s?to
treat you kindly; those vrho
licved you wronged, desired to set
u free. When you were set free,
mpassion ceased to exist. When
due power was given you by the
.1: l ..11
uuiti puny, (ii uiii uiuiivcd <tii j
'ii appreciated and despised,) prc1
ice of race sprang up. The whites
tliis State endeavored to allay it
h-re, at least?by inviting you to
course and a compromise which
iuld liwve given it nothing to feed
c o
on. But their efforts resulted in
ch an utter failure, that it would lie
rtifving had it not been a Christian
ty to make the effort. Every step
your political career, so far, has
itivatcd this prejudice, it until now
eaks aloud in England and is ahady
rapidly changing the polities of
e North. This is the odium which
jst soon prove the death of the
dical party. It is too strong to be
sistcd, being the operation of a law
nature. Do you not sec it even
your white radical friends, in spite
their industrious efforts to conceal
so long as they have use for y?.u ?
it not apparent, also, in the officers,
d even the very private soldiers, of
e army whose bayonets still prop
your power, only because they are
id to do it? Do you flatter yourIvesthat
your "Loyal Leagues" can
evail against it? "Blood is thicker
an water," and the leagu'e which the >
Imighty has organized is one to
licit there will he no traitors, when
cean issue is fairly made.
To repeat, then, as we began :?
:>tir present power must surely and 1
on p:iss li oni you. JNotluiig Hint jt;
lilds will stand, and nothing, will

main of it but the prejudices it nay ;
eate. It is, therefore, a most dan-1
rous tool that you arc handling.?!
our leaders, both white and blt.ck,!
e using your votes for nothing but!
eir individual gain. Many of thcni
?u have only known, hcrctorforc, to
ispise a. d mistrust, until commandI
by your leagues to vote for them. 1
ffices and salaries for themselves
e the heights of their ambitions;
id so that they make hay while the
tn shines, they care not who is
uglit in the storm that follows. Alady,
tliev have driven away all cap
il and credit from the South; and
:iile they draw elcveu dollars a day,
ousands among you are thrown out
employment, and starve simply for
ck of work. What few enterprises
e carried on are only the work of
mthern men, who have faith that
c present state of affairs is but temrary,
Xhe world does riot offer s
better opportuuitics for the employment
of capital than are to be found
in the /S'outh, but will your radical
frends send their money hero to invest
? Kot one dollar. They would '
just as soon venture on investments
in Hayti or Liberia, as comm t their
money to the influence of your legislation.
Capital has learned to shun
it as a deadly plague.
I We, therefore, urge and warn you,
by all the ties of our former relations,
still strong and binding in thousands
of cases, by a common Christianity n
and \ty the mutual welfare of our two J
races, whom Providence has thrown 11
i together, to beware of the course on /
which your lenders are urging you, D
in a blind folly which will surely ruin is
both you and them. f(
We do not pretend to be better w
friends to your race than we are to s
ourselves, and we only speak where p
we are not invited because your wel- r
fare concerns ours. If you destroy
yourselves you injure us, and though
but little compared with the harm q
you will do 3'ourselves, we would if m
we could, avert the whole danger.
We are not in any condition to '
i u!
make you any promises or to propose ai
to you any compromises. We can fc
i do nothing but await the coarse of
events?but this wo do without the ai
slightest misgiving or apprehension i?
for ourselves. We shall not give up
our country, and time will soon re- J,,
store our control of it. But we ear- tL
nestly caution you, and beg you in
in the meanwhile, to beware 'of the p<
use you>make of the temporary pow- -<
er. Rcmembor that your,race has
nothing to gain and everything to It
lose, if you invoke that prejudice of
race which, since the world was made,
has ever driven the weaker tribe to 'J
the wall. Forsake, then, the wicked w
and stupid men who would involve j<
you in this folly, and make to yourselves
friends and not enemies of the
white citizens of <Sbuth Caro ina. lr
