of January, 1851, CHAaBERLAIS LEROY Coon

Edgefeld District, on the 2lst of May l79l.
lie lived in this community, for long term Of
years, and was well known to the citizens gcner-
ally. AS man he was most exemplary. So
far as the knowledge of the writer, who knew
him intimately, extends, his whole conduct was
marked by strict integrity.
u his family relations he was without fault.
He was kind and indulgcnt father, devoted
husband to wife, who has for many years been
almost helpless invalid, humane master, and
peaceablc and obliging neighbor.
In his intercourse with society, his manners
were characterized by cheerfulness and afabili-
ty, which was pleasing to all. For many years,
he had been an orderly member Of the BAPTIST
Church. lie was member Of the Order OF
the Sons Of Temperance Of this place, and 6y
that body, his remains were attended " the
grave.
His death was sudden but it is confidently
hoped, that he died in. the enjoyment OF that re-
ligion which he professed

THE CONVENTION.

By an act passed at the last Session of our
Legislature, as many of the readers of the
Advertiser are aware, Delegates are to be
elected by the people of the different Districts
of the State, on the second Monday in Feb
ruary next, fof a Convention of the people
of the State to assemble at some future day.
Our readers will see card in this paper from
the members of the Legislature, touching the
matter, to which we invite their special at
tcntion. They will also find number OF
names in another column, that have been put
in nomination for seats in the Convention.
Our District will be entitled to seven dele
gates.
This is matter of very great Importance
to the people of the District, and it is rca-
sonablc 10 suppose they will cvincc an inter-
st in it Commensurate with its Importance.
The Convention assembled, will have large
pnwcrs, and will hold in its grasp the political
destinics of the State. twill have to deter
mine, whether the State will longer submit to
the gross wrongs inflicted on her by the

| lhc Convention together. And the very act
itself contcmplates that the meeting Of said
Congress shall not take place until the I'd day
of Jlnuary, 1852; for the 9th section ex.
prcssly suggests that day, and the city oi
| Montgomery rs the proper place.
II Is plain that the intention was to elect
the members to the Convention Il year before
i: could assemble. Will this he Il represcn.
talinn fresh from the people?
How many questions may arise between
the election and the assembling Of the con-
vcniun of the deepest Importance? The
whole issues before the country may be in
fact changed. Are these members, thus to
be elected now, the sole depository of SOW
creirn power in South Carolina for more
than wear! If new questions Of vital mo-
mrnt arise in the meantime, rest assured they
will assume jurisdiction. There never has
been such convention organized before. and
let the caWn'ry iooh we't to pho are 10 cOnsti-

properly will have n stake that MAY yet cause
him to trcmblc in tho progress Of events
There is confusion ahead. The vessel OF
State floats before the breeze with breakers
athwart her bow. 1t will require Il stern and
s.caLy pilot, with q clear sight and thorough
knowledge, TO save her from 4 rocky and
chccrlcss coast.
The firing of one hundred guns for the
convention bill may be too soon. This Tro-

meeting Of the convention to the condition OF
the Southern Congress assembling, and then
to consider and ratty what they should do
Some parts of the bill seem to look to this,
and it may be that this was in fact meant.
The truth is, the fixing Of a day was an cs-
ecniial part Of organizing Il convention. The
day being fixed, would continc ITO the issues
then before the State. The election and the
assembling Of the contention ought 10 be near
together, so that the people, in fact, by the elcc-
tion, could decide in rcalty upon the issues
then made. There can be no true representa-
tinm of sorcrcign pcscer rithoM This. Fixing
day certain is IN essential part of any legal
convention. There is now danger of US sink.

lar and convulsivc movements OIL the other
The convention act seems to assume that
there can be no contingency in which The con-
vcntion can be called before Cd January, 1852
for in this very act that is the day fixed or
suggested for the assembling of the Southern
Congress, at Montgomery; and the meeting
OF our State convention is expressly limited
to the contingency of that Southern Congress
first meeting. I he power of the Governor
to call it together is limited to the assembling
of that Congress; and in case it is not so
called, then the Legislature, at lis next ses-
sion, in December, 1851, may, bya simple
"maiority," fix the day. Can a simple ma
jorty of the Legislature fix the day! The
constitution declares that vote of two-thlrds

! State thus asarm...--, siIuuIu nuv"...->-
all the vital questions Of Southern Congress,
Southern Coafedsracy, and Secession. The
Bill from the Senate received the support Of
q large majority of the House, bnt not quite
the constitutional majority, of t'ro-h'ir's, and
after all hope Of tic passage of that bill had
failed, ihe bill unitng thc Southern Congress
and Convention, was deemed The best shape
in which the whole subject could be left, and
WAS finally adopted with great unanim:t;?
in both Houses. We regret to see that an
attempt has been made TO crcatc the impress
sion, that The "rcccnt Legislature" intended
BY the Act 10 which we have called your at
tention, to create confusion: or make it imbe-
cilc. Although as we have said, we preferred
the Bill from the Senate, we do not believe
that any such intention can be fairly imputed
10 those who preferred the measure which
ultimately passed. Those who opposed the
Bill simply calling Z Convention, were the
warm advocates Of !; Southern Congress, rs
leading TO secession and Southern Confedc-
racy, and expressed the opinion, that the
State ought not to be put i'll Convention, until
the time had arrived TO accede, with tho view
to enter that Conftderacy. On the other
side twas urged, that the State had pledged
itself to follow the lead of any Of the ag-
grcved States in resisting the cncroachments
Of the Federal Government, and that it Was
due to her character and position, to march
up 10 the side of the noble State Of Aiissis-
sippi, whose Legislature had already called Il
Convention Of her people, and be ready to
act promptly in conjuction with that State, or
any other which might adopt an efficient
remedy.
We believed that South Carolina could net,
consistently with her declared intentions, re-
main in Union which sought to Cypress and
degrade her, and our object was to place her
in her sorereign position in Contention, i'll
which position she could with propriety await
the action of the proposed Southern Con-
grcss, and at the same time be ready TO meet
any contingency that might present ITSELF
And in the event that no such Congress was
convened, and all efforts to secure the union
of the other Southern States should fail, she
might adopt the course which the wisdom of
her people might determine to be best Be-
licving that the State would pursue policy
which her reputation demanded we have put
her i'll her highest political position, and We
have not hcsitatcd to vote the necessary sup
plies of money to organize her military re-
sources, with the view of sustaining her in
any course which she may adopt.
