the society for which he tolls shall
never make him recompense. The
ample recompense of man lies in his

and what shall be the virtue in his

irtuous moral which demands That it
hall be made piously and with due,
:egard to the equal virtues and capa-
city Of the representation. There is
one objection to this course of the
members of the Convention, which
Is, perhaps, even more serious than
my we have yet made. It precludes
Ill competition for Office. No man,
whatever his talents, his genius, his
morals, his capacity-for Office, or his
honorable ambition, will dare to run
for the office, in the face of such a re-
commentator. It is d snap-f:e on
the community. 1t anticipates rival
ry, it prevents the honorable conflict
before society of rival minds and ad-
verse opinions, and this most effect
uafly cuts off the people from all ep-
portunity of choice. We do not mean
to insiauate that such was the design
of the honorable members; but we do
say that such must be its effect, if
there are communities in our coun-
try-and such there have been
where it was impossible to oppose
very rich man. however inferior might
be the claims of his intellect. Where
the Golden Calf and Brazen Serpent,
blending their arts and arms toge-
gether, override all opposition, how
much reason we have to apprehend,
even in orr era OF superior virtue and
enlightenment, that the recommends
ton of so many superior men, chosen
to the most superior trust, should
operate in like manner, to a virtual
overthrow, for time, at least, of all
use of an independent suffrage. The
Convention was not created or elected
for. 1.-The purpose of thus moulding
or, In other words, thus controlling
the minds of the people. Let the
people have fair play. Let the rival
ambition have fair play. Let there
be no snap-fring in our State, which,
by this time. ought to be purified by
chastened by humiliation,
and made wise enough for Judgment
by a terrible experience We want
no caucussing, no packing of the l1rv,
no forestalling of the political market;
and, in the case of a body Which is vet
on trial, collectively and Individually,
for what it has done, it might have
been well to wait awhile. and ascer-
tain, from the free expression of
public opinion, what their ow1 status
is to be in the future, and what will
be the degree of authority which they
shall retain, for moulding the opinion
OF the people, and guiding them in
the choice of counscllors and chief
men.

Friday Morning, Sept. %. 1865.

Hoe Mr.. Orr, for tie GoveTnorshil
of South Carolina. We have given
= our reasons for this preference, oven
most others, and we trust that these
reasons have been satisfactory. ~ We
have found them in the fact that Mr..
5! Orr has been the cnief agent, IN thi
formation of thas new. Constitution.
and we hold him accordingly 20 b.
the fttest man to develop in action
it's qualities and characteristics. We
also found our preference in his
own excellent intellectual endow-
ments, his long experience rs a public
man, and those features, marking the
Executive mind which, perhaps, are
the very highest of recommendations
for such an officer at this junctu-e Of
anxiety, turmoil and confusion, almost
amounting to anarchy, in which few
persons have the courage to lay hands
on the helm of State. And all that
VIC have said, we have said in good
fait'l, and with d perfect conviction of
the wisdom of the nomination. But.
we confess to serious objection to
the manner in which this nomination
has been made. It should not have
been made by the Convention. They
should not, in the slightest degree,
have made the slightest attempt to in
fuence the judgment, or shape the
decision of the people. It is true
that they have not made this nomina-
ton directly, in their official capacity,
as collective body. But the mere
formal precaution which kept thom
from SO doing, does not obviate the
objection. 1t is done wholly by
members of the Convention, in the
very midst of their official proceed
ings. Their business had not ended.
No private citizen seems to lave had
d share in the performance; it is ex-
clusively the act of the rmembers of the
Convention We heard one of these
members in debate confidently assert
that the duties of the Convention
were not simply to shape Constitu-
ton for the State, but TO mould It's
public opinion. This is a great error.
They are themselves on their trial, and
the process may be found, in the end,
a crucial one. \ modest recollection
of this fact might have checked any
attempt at gratuitous counsel, which,
delivered in so formal /. manner,
nnder such circumstances, sounds
very like dictation. And why dictate
to, or even counsel apeOplc, whom the
Convention assumes to be perfectly
competent themselves to the selection
Of their own representatives and
rulers? Are they ignorant of their
public men? Especially may we ask,
are they ignorant of the qualities OF
Mr. Orr, after an experience of his
large and various qualities after the
full recognition Of them during their
continual employment FOR more than
twenty years in every possible situa-
ton of high trust and authority? We
beg to say that Mr. Orr, with much
more propriety, pight use his inhu-
ence in the RECOMMENDATION Of most
of the gentlemen who thus gravely
answer for him. The public of the
State might reasonably ask him for
counsel, as to the choice of other mon.
They hardly need the endorsement Of
other men on his political paper.
He does not now need any dry nurs-
ing. We do not charge these gentle

ponents, has already two candidates
in the field for tie approaching cleo
ton, in the persons of Gen. Samuel
MCGOWAN, OF Abbeville, and Geo. D.

these gentlemen were sturdy workers
in the Convention, and will of course
be judged by their doings and-per-

Times gives n most remarkable case Of
" beastly" intoxication
1t seems that on the upper part Of Green
Island an illicit whisky still existed until
yesterday, when Marshal Kipp, Collector
Woodward and Inspector Fales made a
raid on the premises and locked up the
owner and the door. A month ago the
dis,illery was in full blast. 1t was Il
still" night, and the man running the
machine, who had made eighteen gallons
of whisky, put it in the open air to cool.
Along came n thirsty COW, and the bever-
age looked inviting. She swallowed every
drop - eighteen gallons Of unrectifed
whisky, warranted to kill at forty rods.
That COW has been drunk ever since, stag
gercd home, and is now in the fourth
week Of a grand old bender. The cow
eats nothing; falls down whenever they
try to raise her up, and has become as
lean rs q crow, instead Of a COW. Whether
the COW will ever get sober, or end her
life in q fit of delirium tremens, is n qucs-
ton that we shall look anxiously TO see

WHERE THEY ARE.-Four of Waskee's
braves came in to Fort Bridger O few days
since, direct from the vicinity Of Powder
river, and bring q report which is Of great
interest at this time. They say that the
hostile Indians arc camped on that stream
in large force, the lodges, about one thou
sand in number, being arranged in an i'm
mense circle, inclosing n large area. into
which their animals are driven nights for
safety. From this point, bands, small
and large, take their departure to commit
depredations on the telegraph and stage
routes and to steal horses, which are
driven rapidly away to their stronghold.
This, too, is the objective point to which
the several columns under Gen. Conner
are convcrging, doubtless with q tul!
knowledge of the situation on the part OF
the commanding officer. Waskee, who
understands the plan Of the campaign
and has perfect knowledge Of the locality
declares that the Indians con not escape
belief which WI trust may prove well
founded.-Sah Lake Yedette, 18Th.

FUNERAL OF II. +. RrsSELL.-rhe fu-
neral of Adjutant General II. p. Russell,
of Nevada, took place in this city yester-
day. The deceased had for several years
been connected. in an official capacity,
with the militia of the Territory and State
of Nevada. but on account Of i'll health
came TO this city where he spent some
four months. Two months ago he went
to San Francisco. where he died on the
2lst instant. His remains arrived in this
city yesterday morning by the San Fran
cisco boat. and were taken to the Casco
House. The interment took place in the

ANTIQUITY OF NEWPORT, Il. 1.-The
settlement of this ancient town dates back
TO 1857. when the island then called by
the Indians, Aquidneck, or tho Island
of the Blessed" was purchased from tho
Narraganscts tribe. Newport boasts that
ut the breaking out Of the Revolution she
rvalled New York i'll commerce. The
occupation OF the city BY the British,
however, completely ruined the town, and
the population fell from twelve thousand
to four thousand. The commercial pros
pcrity il then lost it never regained and
after many years of peace, Newport to-
day numbers but fifteen thousand inhabi-
tants. There is hardly a place on the
island but is in some manner connected
with the Revolution. Here, Washington,
or Greene, or Sullivan, or Lafayette, had
their headquarters. Here are the remains
OF the fort, built by one or the other Of
the parties, and the cemetery holds the
remains Of the gallant French Admiral
De Terney. as well as those OF our own
celebrated Perry.
