The SOUTH CARoLISA SLAVE CoDE.--The
new negro code of South Carolina provides
that when colored man fails to maintain
his wife and children, he shall be bound to
service from year to year by the district
judge, and his wages shall be used for their
support. Minors under twcnty-one, who are
not being educated in good habits, or are in
danger Of moral contamination, can be bound
as apprentices by the same magistrate until
they arc of age.
All suspicious persons may ve tried by two
judges, sentenced TO hard labor on the streets
and public buildings or hired out to farmers.
Every master is authorized to punish his ap,
prontices with /" moderate chastisement, and
to impose reasonable restraint, and to recap
ture him if he departs from his service"
All colored laborers are liable to "suCh cor
poreal punishment as is lawful in the army
or navy of tho United States, :" to be inflicted
by order of a magistrate
This Is slavery in a modified form. 1t is
plain that the white rebels Of the South can
not safely be allowed to legslate for the
loyal blacks.

THE VERMONT rSESAroRsHIP.-News tray-
els slowly in Vermont, Senator CoLLAHER
died ut Woodstock Thursday night, but the
Legislature at Montpelier, atty miles away,
did not hear of it before the adjournment on
Friday morning, at eight O'Clock, and of
course did not take any action in the prem
ises. The question now arises, can the Gov
ernor legally appoint Mr.. CoLLANER's sue
cessor, seeing that the vacancy actually
commenced while the Legislature was yet in
session, and the law provides for filling such
vacancies by the Governor of the State only
when they occur during the reoess Of the
Legislature. Governor DrLLISGHAH has re-
quested tho Supreme Court to give written
opinion as to whether he has the power to
fill the vacancy or not, and will not act till
the decision is given. Meanwhile the candi-
dates for the vacant place grow numerous;
and beside Representative MORRILL,, the
Vermont papers mention the names Of LUKE
P. POLAND, o. P. CHANDLER, Of Woodstock,
and GEoRGE F. EDMUSps and LEVI UNDER.

The second resolution above, denying the
second section of the amendment proposed
by Congress, was evidently passed to serve
as an apology for the legislation previously
had upon the "labor systoin' sIof the State.
But this resolution will have but little force
with Congress, TO whose attention we would
respectfully submit it, for 1t contravenes the
amendment and is manifestly intended to
cover up any interference with tho rights of
freedmen they may choose to indulge in.
The Freedmen's Bureau should look care
fully at the "mock turtle slave code" Of
South Carolina, and guard the freedmen
against any oppression that may arise under
pretence of its authority, until such time as
Congress shall have considered the matter
In q few months, no doubt, the planters Of
the South will discover that It Is for their
interest to faster the laborers upon their
soil, guaranteeing to them their inalienable
rights 60.
