grcss should sustain by their influence and
vote, tae prayer of those who petition for the

tion of Texas to the United States?
In behalf of the Executive Committee of

MEETING OF TIE WIG CONyEN.
TIONS

Last night the Senior and Junior Whig
Conventions met at Central Hall 10 consider
what course it becomes the Wing party 10
pursue in regard to the late election. Almost
every member Of each Convention was pres
ent aud a large number Of citizens were also
in attendance. Never have we seen greater
enthusiasm in any public meeting, and tie
most determined spirit was evinced by every
man present. Eloquent and impre ssve ad-
dresses were delivered, and the following re-
solutions, on being proposed, were received
with loud cheers and were adopted without
one dissenting voice. These resolutions, we
may truly say, cmbody the feelings and deep
convictions OF the great whig party OF this
city, and our friends here aud elsewhere may
rest assured that they WILL BE CARRIED
FULLY INTO EFFECT.
RESOLVED, That it 10 the deliberate and u.
nanirnous opinion Of these Conventions, that
the election Of Messrs. IIowARp and McKIM
was effected by bribery, corruption, and the
most alarming importation Of hired, illegal
voters.
Resolved, That these Conventions regard
it as sacred duty to publish to the world the

could be proved upon any one, until recently
1t seems that the Post Master at Yorkvic
was in the habit Of pastng his packages in
stead Of tying them, and when they arrived
at Spartanburg, they were frequently mutila-
ted aud tied with twne. The Post Master
at Spartanburg directed the stage driver to
miss all Offices on the route, Tor one trip, ex-
cepi the one Oh which suspicion rested, and
by this means much additional evidence was
obtained. These facts were made known 10
the Post Master General. who Immediately
sent on an agent (Arhur Nelson, ESQ., who,

Mr.. EDITOR:

Mr.. EDIrOR:
Allow me, through your columns, to set
forth few reasons for opposing the present
Administration. At this time, it is nll-impor-
tant that they should be considered. The
dangers of our situation are not reolized.--
The next Congress may decide the fate OF
our country. Its continued peace or it's DESC
luton, ure the alternatives. The power Of
the central government, and the state of tho
currency, must also be determined.
In the first place, then, lot US oppose that
party, who have espoused the cause of the
Texan adventures, and who are now en-
deavoring to seize upon Texas as their own.
Let us prevent it, or never mention Russia
and Poland. One Of the greatest statesmen
OF the land has recently said, that it is almost
impossible to ward of this blow, and he looks
to it as the signal for wars and destruction
Let the speech Of John Q. Adams, upon this
subject, be read by every one. Let him FORE
see an European war, Mexican war, a ser.
vile war, and general Indian war.-I.et him
oPP"S~ WIZ Po''y VI administrator.
Again, let us oppose the Van Buren, party
as we would always oppose perfdy. What
IN history can be compared with the syste-
matte violation of the Indian treaties? Our
Indians are banished, torn frsm their children,
or exterminated. Wipe out the blood stain
while you may.
Again, oppose the administration for Hber-
ty's sake. Let not the name of :'democracy'
conceal the growing power of the central
government. Consider it well, and oppose it
while you may.
Oppose corruption. Lot not soviiity be
the best qualification for Office. Save tho
country from an army Of Office holding parti-
zans.
Oppose the leaders Of the Van Buren, par.
~, for they have excited hostility between
rich and poor, though all their interests nre
the same. They have attacked all collec tons
Of property, though oil easses must suffer a.
like from its fall. For an impossbility's sake
they have destroyed oil medium of exchange.
While increasing the power Of the govern
msn,, they cry ont at honest, well rewarded
industry, as arisioeroey.

awake. Let him redeem the honor Of his
country-stop the general ruin-rcs,oro tho
general prosperity. We have al encourage

/ DETRoiT, JULY I3, 1897.
MIR. Webster left us this morning, after a
stay of four days, during which time most OF
our citizens have had an opportunity oil taking
by the hand this gentleman. He arrived
among US last Saturday night, having crossed
the county from Chicago. On Tuesday
COLLATION. was given to him IN grove south
: OF the city. A very large c0neeurse of both
sexes larger than was probably ever before
assembled at any one time in Michigan) were
present Mr.. Webster addressed the rs
sembly in speech Of one hour in length
Ills remarks were chiefly, confined to the
currency-the cause Of, and the remedy for.
the present distress. Though he disavowed
any intention to impcach The motives of men
in power. he did not hesitate to charge upon
the experimenting policy Of the general gov
ernmeut the primary and main cause OF all
our present commercial and pccuniary en-
barrassmcnts Hc claimed Tor himself no
extraordinary foresight or spirit Of prophecy,
but he foresaw years ago tho very state of
things which are now existing. Other public
men toretold the same rcsults. Let the sup
portcrs of iIie men who tamper with the cur
irency, and seek for tho sources of our COM
mcrclal ruin in ovcrtrading and speculation,
and thousand other secondary causes, ex-
plum tins circumstance satisfactorily. The
most natural effects have followed the most
obvious causes.
! MIR. Webster most uncquivocally declared
himself opposed ~ an EXcheIucr Bank. He
thought IL best to suffer the very worst of
evils, than TO place such power in the hands
of the Executive. Ills whole speech was
listened to with the most profound attention.
| was particularly struck with tho caycrness
with which large number OF laborlng men
who had crowded close upon the speaker,
seemed to catch every word that fell from his
lips. The frequent cxclamations OF "that is
true," ""well that's fact" "thats the true
doctrine" as well as the bursts Of applause
which frequently interrupted the delivery. at
tested both the soundness and the clcarness
of the address. NJ. Webster, | am sure, has
left us with an increased number of friends.
The plainness of his personal appearance and
frankncsS Of his manner, are well calculated
to command respect and admiration from al
classes OF the community.
Mr. Webster goes with the least possible
delay To Boston. Committees from neigh
boring towns are present, urging him to visit
them; bat the short time which intervenes
before the meeting Of Congress, renders il
necessary that he should hasten home. We
are doubtless indebted for his visit to us, to
the fact that his son is a resident in our city.
The Wings of the State are organizing for
n strong, and we hope, successful contest at
the approaching elections. The party has
been culpahly lcthargc heretofore; and the
State has literally gone by default. A State
Convention of Wings is TO be held OH the Cd
Of August to make nominations. Every
county appears to be makug prcpara ions to
be represented there.

PRovIDENcR, July -, 1887.

DEAR SIR-I have received your commu-
nicailon, dated yesterday, containing some
questions (having reference to the District of
Columbia and to Texas) which, you observe,
are submitted by vote Of the executive COM
mittee OF the Rhode Island State Anti-Slave-
ry Society. With great cheerfulness will
proceed TO reply and express to yod and them
my views upon the subject matters Of those
questions.
You ask me if believe "that Congress has
the right to abolish slavery in tho District Of
Columbia?"
never entertained doubt that Congress
has that right. In the course of the past year,
was induced by what was said in Congress
to examine this question carefully, with re-
fcronce TO the acts Of cession Of Maryland
and Virginia and the arguments of those who
denied the right l found nothing to alter my
previous opinion, and observed in converse
tons ut the time that was satisfied, as still
am, that Congress has that right, derived from
the Constitution, and unmpaired by the acts
of cession or any other matter.
\ You next ask me if believe "that Congress
should sustain unabridged, the right Of the
people 10 petition for the abolition Of slavery
and the slave trade in the District Of Colum-
bia?"
Certainly believe so. The right Of the
people to petition for whatever their Lcgisa-
ture has tho power to enact or grant,s right
too plain, too necessary and heretofore too
dearly purchased and maintained, to be now
the subject Of doubt, opposition or obstruc-
ton.
You ask, in the third place, if ] believe
",hot members Of Congress should sustain by
their influence and vote tho prayer Of those
vl,o for tta diata h,,li nt
slavery aud the slave trade in the District ol
| Columbian"
II ] believe that slavery and the slave trade
are great evils and they ough: not to exis,
at the seat of the government Of the United
States; that the Legislature which has con.
stitutional power to abolish an evil existing
within its jurisdiction ought to provide for a.
bolishing it as soon as possible. Therefore
supposing of course that the petitions are pro.
per in their form, and that they have for theiI
object Just and sound Legislation for effect
ing the desired result, believe the prayer ol
such petitions should be 50 sustained by mem
bers Of Congress.
Y You ask, fourtbly, whether l ain Sin favol
! of, or against the annexation Of Texas to the
|, United States?"
II am against such annexation.
n The frame and purport Of your question:
enables inc to feel that in answering them ex
plictly, as have, in my present situation.
do nothing that can be justly deemed often
sivc TO any sense Of propriety inasmuch al
| they ere confined to matter Of opinion,a and d.
not ask for such pledges and promises rs, ]
given, preclude the due exercise Of conside
ration and judgment, and disarm opinion an'
argument Of their due inAucn nee, when Tins
and an occasion for action occur. To such ,
course should have felt il unpleasant to have
been asked to respond.
II II has ever seemed TO me that one who J!
willing to take upon himself an oath Of Office

GnEENvILLE, s. &. July l5th.-Last week
we stated that q Post Master on the route
from Unionvile to SPartanburg had recently
been arrested for purloinlng money from the
Mail, but dad not give particulars, as we re-
ceived the intelligence in such a manner as
would not authorize their publication. This
week correspondent has furnished us with
a statement OF facts, connected with the az.
fair, tho substance Of which we give below.
The Post Master who has been arrested is
by the name Of M'Byde, his office is called
M'i}ridesville, on the route from Unionville
10 Spartnnbnrg, G. II. For moro than two
years, money bad been lost from the mail be-
tween the latter place aud Charleston, but no
clue could be had, by which the depreciation
