|: MEssRs, EDITORS: AS some of the
readers Of your paper may feel nm in-
terest in Knowing what is being done
for the great cause Of the Bible, in
South Carolina, permit me to make
the following brief statement for their
information:
Since my re-appointment as Bible
Agent for this State, on tho 1st of
July, 1865, through the iberality of
the American Bible Society, have
been instrumental in placing the
Bible, without note OF comment, at
the disposal of auxiliaries and twenty
three newly organized Bible Com
mittees, i'll twenty five Districts of
this State. 1t is hoped soon to supply
the auxiliarics in the remaining Dis
tricts of this State with the Word of
God. So far as the auxiliaries and
committees have been heard from,
they are searching out and supplying
the destitute within their respective
bounds with commendablc earnest
ness. 1t is pleasing to state that
several efficient clergymen and lay
men in various portions of my field,
have rendered much valuable service
as Bible colportenrs. A highly es-
tecmed clergymen, in one of the
Western Districts of this State, when
spoken to in reference to our society,
said: "The American Bible Society
must be sustained. Send me three
hundred Bibles and Testamcnts, and
/ will take great pleasure in distribut-
ing them among the destitute" An
other clergyman, who is an active
pastor in one of the Eastern Districts.
said: ''Please secure for me several
hundred copies of the Scriptures for
our District. The destitution is very
great, and l will take great pleasure
in placing the books in the hands of
the people. Aud a Bible Commit
tee, III one OF the upper Districts,
said: @Thc American Bible Society
Will confer Il blessing on this commu-
nifty, if they will send us five hundred
copies of the Word of God" A highly
esteemed laymen, also, who is the
efficient President OF Branch Bible
Society, in one of our upper Districts,
being concerned for the welfare of
thc freedmen, and requesting Bibles
and Iestaments for their use, saws:
81 would respectfully report that the
numerous freedmen in this place and
vicinity are in the process of learning
to read, while some can do SO already;
and hence weanticipatc Il considerable
demand for the Word Of God, to be
placed in their hands" Mr.. Rial
North, local agent of the Bible Socie-
ty i'll Columbia, who received a grant
Of one thousand Bibles and Tcsta-
ments at his depository last autumn.
reports more than half of this mum
Der distributed to destitute persons
IN tins city and i'll Richland District.
During the war, every community
III this State was drained to meet the
calls for Bibles and Testaments for
ON soldiers, and hence the present
urgent demand for the Word of God
IN this State. And the freedmen,
whose predominant desire Just now
seems to be to learn to read, are in
prospect OF the attainment, impor-
tuning us for Bibles. With sincere
regards, yours truly.

Trial OF Jefferson Davis.

1t Is O matter of regret that this
great State trial, which is soon to he
placed upon the records of our mn
tlonal history and form part of the
great trad1tions.of civil conflicts, and
become one of the great precedents
OF law, should have such an unwor-
tiny commencement. Judge Under
wood, one Of that spurious judiciary
created III the course OF iliegitimate
faction, made q stump speech to the
grand jury, which was disgraceful
even as specimen of the oratory of
the stump; and upon this instigation,
and we know not what other base
arts, the indictment was procured.
All other parties to the great civic
drama are far above the level of base
ness. The accused, the chief Justice,
the prosecuting counsel, and the law
yers for the defence, and the Presi-
dent who IS to execute OF modify the
sentence of the court, all these are
men capable of playing the great
part assigned to them. The more's
the pity the prologue was given to
mountebank to rchearse.
Albany A7'gus.
'Iota," the Washington cores
pondent Of the Baltimore .Sun, in his
Sundays letter to that paper saws:
The trial of Jefferson Davis before
the United States Circuit Court in
Virginia is considered as settled, but
Chief Justice Chase has not yet sig
nlfied his intention to hold the court
for this or any other purpose. The
Judiciary Committee Of the House
are now directing their attention to
the grounds presented to them upon
which the charge of treason, not of
conspiracy and for assassination. is
founded, and the Chief Justice NAV
await their final report. The Presi-
dent will, no doubt, remove the chief
obstacles which the Chief Justice in
dlcated as preventing him from try
ing criminal case III Virginia. He
must certainly withdraw martial law
from the State before Justice Chase
will consent to hold the court for Mr.
Davis trial. This has not vet been
done, but it is thought that it will be.
The law Just passed to facilitate the
trlal ut richmond authorizes a special
term to be held, as we'll as the reru-
lar terms in May and October. If
the Chief Justice determined to hold
tue court and try Jefferson Davis for
treason, it will not be so early as
June, as some have supposed-other
engagements will prevent it. The
Jurors cannot be taken from West
Virginia, us has been stated in some
quarters. Of course not, as theDis-
trict III which the alleged overt act
was committed does not, and did not
AT the time of its alleged commit
ment, embrace West Virginia. The
accused will have the usual right of
pre-emptory challenge as well as OBJ
Jectlng for cause. No one believes
that jury is likely to be empanelled
at Richmond that will agree. A dis
agreement, and possibly q new trial
with like results, is all that will come
of it. Therefore the radicals are OPP
posed to trial for treason bv civil
court IN Virginia. Senator Sumner
Is not alone i'll declaring it a farce.

The comparative dullncss OF business,

For the Freeman.
The Senatorial Question.

We have been fire. quenily inquired of Why
We 90 much prefer the election of Mr.. morrill,
a. United States Senator, to that of MIR. Po-
answer is simply this because We think in
times like the present il will be most for The
public good and this, We also think, is the
prevailing voice of the public. Going upon the
ground that the moral qualifications of the two
gentlemen are eq ually unexceptionable, and tina,
each one is equally reliable and trust .portAy in
politics, still We have in our opinion good res
sons for giving the preference to Mr.. Morrill,
only come of wpich can now be alluded to-
Mr.. Morrill,, as 10 we'll known, is nov in the
prime of life, was bred . merchant, and, if we
mistake not, has in latter years been somewhat
engaged in agricultural pursuits, and is strictly
q working, business man, and has at all time,
proved himself reliable man. No better guar
antee of bis probity, intelligence, industry and
ability, can be ask.d OF him than whar is fur
nshed by truthful and impartial reference to
the record of his Congressional life
The close Of the present Congress gives him
an experience of twelve year. in The House,
and for the last sever al years of the time he
has stood, both in this State and other s ates
as the acknowledged and reliable leader in that
body on all questions of finance and kindred
subj scts /; end it may we'll be doubted whether
he has bis superior in the Senate. When We
the amount of our national debt, and
the demands which must BE- made upon the ma
lion from the public treasury for years to como,
and the vast importance Of preserving . sound

State Convention.

We print elsewhere the call of the Union
State COMMITTEES for a State Convention to Re
held at Montpelier the Goth inst. The call is
addressed TO the Union Republican voters of
the State, and was doubtless intended to em,
brace all who have for the last four wears acted
with the Union party OF the State, and it may
therefore be considered strict party Ill. As
Sucn We ike It, III 1t is worth while TO have
a party Organization, it is also worlh while to
have a name for the party, and The party 10 coz
ventiou, and not the comm ittee in a call should
declare rs creed, and build its platform. The
name a. I 1ion Republican is awkward, but as
the party IS made up partly OF Democrats and
partly Of Republicans, the Committee doubtless
could think of no designation which would H.
clude the whole party better than ne one used
w aen the Convention assemblies it can, if it is
thought advisable go to do, agree to adopt
simpler and more expressive name. We re
fer that the party should be called the R-pu0li-
can party, or the Union party, rather than as i,
Is IN this call,and We hope one or the other des
ignstion viii be hereafter adopted
This Convention will in any event have be-
fore it the work Of decariog the principles
which, in this State, to give it character and
life. and it should therefore be fully attended.
Tnere should Do no equivocations or doubtful
phrases used in it, resolutions. There can b.
no doubt that the greet body Of Tie voters OF
