Gov. MARVIN talks as follows 10 the people of
Florida:
feel it duty owe to you and our common
country to call Jour attention to a few matters
which must characterize the constitution to be
framed. Every element which entered inlo the
war seemed concentrated on the destruction OF
slavery. Ii was without constitutional basis or
legal protection when your State government was
destroycd-it has been cxtingushed by military
orders and by presidential proclamations, and may
be considered as thrice dead and plucked up by
the roots. Any attempt on the part of the con-
vention to revive and renstate il, would be labor
and tine spent in vain. The future Conalu fion
of Florida must guarantee freedom alike 10 aH-it
must not be black or ,chie, but free.
And am free to confess that, in view Of the
di.organzed state Of our society, it is WELL in my
judgment, that slavery has passed away forever.
Supposing the institution remained. and the one

that is no reason why constitution or law should

Furthermore, the Constitution must declare that

impressive and painful lessons Of years crowd in
upon nv memory. You know that the menal
classes OF all nations are permitted to appear in
court and testify, and that in some instances lords
and mobiles have been sent to the gallows on the
evidence Of house servants. Our colored popua
ton are as well qualified to testify as they. You
keep the negro out of court, and what chaucc has

Mr.. HExDERsoN's OWN VIEW
A Waggish Governor.

We believe that General Humphreys will be a
decided Improvement on the former Governors of
Mississippi. In his inaugural address he ajmon
Shes the Legislature OF that State that the idea OF
resusctation Of slavery is not to be thought OF;
that the freedom Of the negroes must be conceded,
that they must be gently dealt with. their rights OF
person and property protected, and "the highest de-
gree Of elevation in the scale of civilization OF
which they are capable. morally and intellectually.
must be secured to them by their education and re-
lirous training" All this is sensible and becom-
ing the gravity of solemn State paper; but the
Governor IS practical joker, and could not restrain
his propensity for esting, even on such occasion
Of delivering his inaugural else he could not hare
addressed to a body of Mi.sssippians, such Ian
guage as the following
"The purity and progress Of both races require
that caste must be maintancd and inter -rnarriag &c
between the races forbidden. Miscegcnaton
