To balance this, the institution may be credited with a moral and religious I advancement of the slave that ena I bled htm without further preparation to take his position as a citizen and ! with considerable credit to himself j discharge the duties of that relation ship. Southern slavery, as it was I contemptuously called, proved to be the best school 30t tried in which to train the savage and untutored Afri can for the responsibilities of citizen ship. Such was the verdict ol the North and of the Republican party itself as announced in Mr. Lincoln's ; proclamation of immediate oumncipa : lion and investment of the new freed man with ?II the privileges of a citi zen. Relieved by the results of the war from this bondage, the negro found liimself sutrounded by a com bination of circumstances as impera tive and as inexorable in their re quirements as the servitude he had just left. His relationship wr.s changed but his condition remained the same. Set vile slavery was ex i changed for political slavery and the | plantation task-master for political bosses, who came down in troops from the North and tho West to take charge of the meetings and protect, ostensibly, the nation's wards from threatening dangers. His hands were free to labor or to be idle, but bis will was manacled?fettered with shackles as unyielding as ever. Thou ht was free but political dicta-! lion was enforced at the ballot box; and, if any one happen to think best to vote differently from his orders, the political lash was cracked and the man whipped mercilessly back into line. 'Jo believe in political freedom was sufficient cause to bring the wretch to trial, and persistency in this course brought down upon one's bead the anathemas of the white bosses,! while the colored understrappers, J male and female, filled the air with their foul imprecations. In older to keep the negro in this pliant, slate, every two years a terrible fright wr.s set up in the shape of his old servitude, and he was told to vole other than a Radical ticket would as certainly place him in the old position, w hile an implicit obedience to his un relenting leadeis would bring him emolument from office, luxury from the possessions of the w hite? and per manent control of the government; These illusions had the desired effect; until 1870, when the inauguration ol Democratic rule broke the spell, and the eyes of the deluded negro were opened only to sec the State bosses giving leg-bail, the coun ty bosses dodging behind the Demo-j cratic ranks, and the precinct under strappers skulking like rats in the dark corners of the country. It was indeed a second emancipation, the! only genuine one the negro has yet! experienced; and it is more than \ probable he will never again return to the same political bondage. With the incrpaeed educational facilities af forded by Democratic rule and four years of free thought, speech and vo lition, the negro can certainly dis charge his public duties more Hico a free map and vole as he wills without hindrance or curses from his neigh bors, ?Gen. Ifilpntriek thinks .uihc South hasn't been whipped enough.'' That is not surprising, as in tho General's war experience, the whip ping was all on the other side. \ fcrcncc, pen, ?Joe Wheeler. The State Convention. Tbe Convention wus called to or der by Gcu. John D. Kennedy, Chair man of Ihe State Executive Commit tee, at \2 M. on Tuesday last. Col. J* II. Bio'n, of Fuirfieldj was chosen temporary Chairman and James Al drich Secretary. Full delegations ??vcrc found to be in attendance from every county with only a single ex ception. Col. J. S. Colhran, of Abbe ville, was unanimously elected per manent Chairman of the Convention and at once entered upon the duties of that responsible position. He tc minded the delegates of the past suc cesses achieved bv the party and warned them against the evils of dis cord and diesensions ; iLtat dangers do not lie in the way of minorities, but may be found lurkirg in the pow er of majorities. After the election of one vice-president from each Con gressional district, Mr. Win. Munro, 61 Union, ollerud a resolution that the Convention do now proceed to nomi nate Slate officers und a Stale Execu tive Com mit'eo and that the Slate canvass shall not be opened earlier than the fust week in September next. This and other resolutions were re ferred to the proper committee and i the convention proceeded to elect j four delegates from tbe State at large j to attend the Cincinnati Convention j on the 22nd instant. Mr. J. C. Shcppard, of Edgcfield, in a very handsome and compliment ary speech placed the ir mcs of Sena ? lors Wade Hampton und M. C. Butler I in.nomination because he thought the State of South Carolina should t:e j heard in that Convention and did not ! think that two men could be found in j the entire Slate who could come near er expressing the desires of the whole j Democracy than Senators Hampton : and Buller. The roll was called and each delegate as his name was called , named the four candidates that were ibis choice with tho following re sults: Hampton 150, voles ; Buller, 15G ; Maj. T. G. Barker, 103 ; Gen. 'John Bralton', 80. Alternates: Hon. J. Hi Evine, Maj. G. Lamb Buist, John A. Lcland, and Gen. M. W. Gary. j The following delegates were then ! elected to represent each Congression al district at Cincinnati: First Dis jtricl?C. S. McCall and J. II. Karle; i Alternate,s James Norton and J. \V. I Williams. Second District?F. W. I Dawson and Samuel Dibble; Alter nates, W. H. Muckenfuss and A. II. I Mo wry. Third Distiict?John R. Ab j ney and B.'F. Whitner f Alternates, jO. T. Calhorn, and Job F. Wingard. Fourth District?F. A. Connor aud W. C. Cleveland; Allci nates, John B. Erwin and R. N. Hemphill. Fifth ! District?T. J. Davis and Alfred Al trich ; Alternates, J. W. Holmes and and F. T. Harroll. Gen. James Conner on behalf of the majority of the Committee on res olutions submitted the following res olution : That the Convention do now proceed lo nominate Stale offi eers and that the Executive Commit tee be instructed to open the State canvass at such time as in their judg ment will least disturb the agricultu ral interests of the .ttate. Gen. Wm. liaiilec on behalf of the minority of the same committee offered the fol lowing resolution: That this Con vention do recommend to the Demo cratic party of this Suite lo elect del gates to a State Convention for the purpose of nominating electors .fer Preside n1 and Viee-President of the United Stales and for State olllcers on the 10 h day of August next. Mr. Harllec supported his resolution with a speech and moved at the conclusion that it be adopted as a substitute for the majority report. This motion brought the question of immediate nominations before the convention in a tangible form and a spiiitcd debate at once ensued participated in by sev eral delegates from different sections; of tho Slate. Alter all was said that could he said for and against the mo-! lion, the question was put and result cd in 80 votes for immediate nomi nation and ?7 against it. After.the vole wits known there was a general l expression of willingness on the parti of the delegates lo yield and work for i the success of the ticket to bo nomi nated. On Wednesday the Conven tion met again and with very com mendable unanimity the following ticket of State officers was put in the Geld : For Governor?Gen. Johnson IIa good. For Lieutenant Governor?Gen. J. D. Kennedy. For Comptroller-Gencral-T-J. C, Coil. For Secretary of Stale?Col. 11. M. Sims. For Adjutant and Inspector-Gen eral?Gen. ?rthUr M. Manigault. For Attorney-G^ners'.lr-rGen. Leroy F. Yiiumans. For Superintendent of Edupat ion Major Hugh S. Thompson. For Stale Treasurer?Col. J. P. Richardson. The News (tnsl Courier truthfully says ihe men who compose thjs ticket ? need no introduction to the people. Somo of them have already moat ac ceptably lllled the positions for which they have been nominated. All ol them in the past have done good and faithful service to the Slate. In Un hands of such men the honor pud the interests of South Corolina can suffer no dotrinient The Colored Cadet. Sometime ago we took occasion to express our belief that no Southern j student at We6t Point was guilty of tho base and cowardly act of culling the ears nnd tying Cadet Whitakcr.l The belief was founded upon the uni versal sympathy of the white race lor the colored people, but we bad no thought at the lime that the result the of investigation, then being had, would fix the dastardly crime upon Whilaker himself. On Saturday last the court, having the matter in baud, made up its dual report which says, that there was no testimony implicating any other cadet; that bis insensibility on tbe morning after tho occurrence was only feigned ; that no other than W hi taker birasull had any motive in making such an assault; that he clipped his own hair, cut his own llcsh and lied Tiimsclf; und hat the note of warning, found in bis room, was written by himself and therefore he was not ignorant of the persons engaged in the alfair. This is cer tainly nn unexpected verdict, and will be most damaging lo the negro race among their friends at the North, in that it lays open a characteristic of that people hitherto unknown in that section. An niter want of veraci ty and of sincerity and a low treach ery were all brought promiucully out by the testimony in the case ami made clear by the report of the court. We, at the South have always understood the negro und, knowing his ignorance, his moral weakness and incapacity lo maintain himself upon any high standard of honor without the aid o! white friends, have sympathized with him and have been disposed to lend him help where he needed aid most, j This failure of Whitaker is unfortunate because be was tbe only one of his I color occupying such a favorable po sition to exhibit to the world ihe abil ity to rise from his present level to a i higher plane and maintain himself j there. So tar as ihe record of this lease goes, it establishes the fuel that, under the most favorable circum stances, Ihe negro is lacking in verac ity, in a high sense of honor and in ! moral strength. Oer own opinion is that Whi taker was used as a tool by s?mo designing politicians for tbe purpose of raising la hue and cry against the South it. j the interest of the Republican party, j The "bloody shirt" anil the "persecn i tion of the poor negro" for political ' elfect is nt the bottom of the whole alfair. The Pivotal State. A reporter of Ihe New York Her ald, in an interview with Gen. Faulk ner, Chairman of tbe Democratic Slate Commit! ee ( f New York, repre sents that gentleman as say ing that there is no doubt of Mr. Tildcn's ability to carry his State, and gives as proof ollhis assertion, that Mr. Til den polled 522,648 votes in 1876 in New Yoik, the largest vole ever taken in tbe Slate, beating Hajes 32,000 ; Grant 81,000 ; Greeley 134.000 ; and Seymour 92,000. Let this be as it may the Democratic parly cannot af ford to nominate a man who is so universally objected to by the South, and to whom there is more or less ob jection by every section of the Union. Mr. Tildon is not the choice of the country and why should his friends insist on making him an issue in the Cincinnati Convention. It can serve no other end than to embarrass the party in ihe campaign. .- ? m, m- - ? - Columbia Canal. The public expectation with refer ence lo utilizing this valuable watei power has met with so many disap pointments, that we are slow to enter taiu any new hope of its early realiza tion ; yet we are told that tbe pros pect was never belter than at this time and that work will be com-1 tnenecd at an early day. A board of directors h ive been elected with Mr. David M. Thompson and other capi talists as Ihe controlling spirits. Sufficient water can be obtained from the Congarec at this point, and under easy control, that will afford a power great enough to make Columbia a second Lowell or Manchester. A large expenditure of money, however, is required to put tbe canal in proper condition and Ibis can only be made by capitalists outside the Suite. It is to be hoped that success will at tend the efforts of Mr. Tbompsou und his board and before long ihe hum of machinery u.ay be heard on the Con garce, ?rA wealthy Indiana farmer named Daniel Swygart starved himself to death under the hallucination that if he ate his fnmily'would suffer. The Chicago Convention. While wo write the Republican clans from every quarter of the Uni ted States aio gathered at Chicago, and skirmishing between the two fac tions, Grant and anti-Grant, has com menced. The leaders, Conkling and Logan for Grant, Dennison and Fos ter for Sherman, and Ilnmlin nnd Chandler for Blaine, have marshalled | their forces anil the contest, eotnmenc- j ed on Monday, deepens and grows more violent. The unit rule, which devolves it upon the chairman of each delegation to ca9t tire vote of his delegation as he may he instructed li\ u majority of tho members, is the great dividing question. Cameron, Chairman of the National Executive Committee, und a strong Grant man, refuses to recognize individual dele gates on a vole. An attempt was made to remove him but failed, aud resulted further in admitting all Grant deleg '.ions from contested states at least until an organization could be made. This is an advantage for Grant, The opposition, however, is stubborn and becomes more deter mined as new ddllcultics nr'se, and may grow sulllcienlly strong to de feat Grant. The Newa und Courier, commenting on ihe first day's pro ceedings of the Convention, says: UTug result of tbe first day's session of the Chicago Convention must be a soie disappointment to the hungry and unscrupulous crew who hang all their hopes on the nomination ol Grant. Their leaders had promised j them that the ex-President should win at the outset with a rush and a hur rah ; but Ihe lieicc and organized op position to the Third Term which they have encountered on all sides has compelled them to give up ihe brag game and to enter their 'silent man' with bis less pretentious com petitors in the vulgar scuffle and scram ble for the pr'ze which they had affected lo believe was already as good as won. The chances now seem to be against the nomination of Grant. Tbe wide-spread conviction which is not only fell but openly ex pressed, that he cannot be elected, is likely to outweigh all ihe line things that ids champions may be able to say in bis behalf. As for Blaine, the personal opposition lo him has be come too hit er to allow the minority who support him to gain the acces sions necesary lo make a majority. From present appearances, unless the Grant managers have taken advantage ol the early adjournment yesterday to tap ii very huge ?ed barrel, the choice wi'l be between Edmunds, Washburne and the sly Sherman. The odds seemingly are in favor ol Edmunds, who would tsiidouliieilly bi? the strongest nomination that the Republicans could make, as Grant would be tbe weakest.'' Senator M. C. Butler. South Carolina has just cause to be proud of her Senators and Repiescnt atives in Congress, and of not one more '.ban Senator Butler, who is ever the champion of right and the bold defender of her character and policy. Like Gen. Hamilton, controlled by no policy, frightened by no taunts, Senator Butler dares lo do right for the sake of right, and Ibis accounts for his determination '.o vote against the resolution to unseat Kel logg, of Louisiana. His speech in the Senate last week, in answer to Senator Hill, of Georgia, was equal to any ?flott of the kind ever made in the Senate Chamber?elevated in tone, manly in sentiment, just in its criticisms and unusually clear in ar gument?it was a noble defence of South Carolina, a clear justification of his conduct and a culling rebuke to the Georgia Senator. Who her Mr. Hill intended his remarks us a compliment or a sneer at our State, Gen. Butler's speech was a complete answer. If a compliment, he wen I out of his way to give it, dud if a sneer, it was out of p ace and the re buke he received was none too severe. So long as Hampton and Butler rep resent South Carolina in the Senate and O'Connor and his worthy col leagues in the House, her honor will never need a defender or her interest a guardian.
