One word of advice To oar frien's. We
are constrained to frequently refuse comma-
nications Of undoubted merit, simply because
we cannot devote as macn space as they
would occupy many Of them being from
Ave to six columns long, and written on both
sides Of the sheet. Now, il our Contributors

FfOn1 te Herald.
The recent meeting at the capital of South
Carolina, an extended account of which we
published yesterday, is one of the most
significant events of the present dav. Dis
franohsed whites and enfrancbised blool,s
mingled together and took counsel on the
policy Of the future under the new order Of
affairs in the Southern States. As South Caro-
lima was formerly the foremost in secession
and the boldest advocate of slavery. So now
she leads the van in reconstruction and ia tbo
first of the Rebel States to recognizes the eouol
rights of the freedmen. The politioione Of
South Carolina were always shrewd. active
men; and the speeches of the whites at this
remarkable meeting show that if the Rebel
lion has stripped them of everything else II
has not deprived them of political energy and
sagaoity.
An assemblage Of aboltionists in Boston
presided over by Wendell Phillips, could not
have claimed more for, or conceded more TO.
the colOred man THAN did the representatives
Of the South Carolina chivalry. standing in
the capital of their State. 1t must have been
singular sight to see such men as Wade
IidlnpLOl Do DdushuIe, colonel Ialley, IL. j.
Arthur and others telling their emancipated
slaves that 'they have the right of franchise:"
that they are POLITICALLY the EQUALS of the
whites" that ''the white man and the colored
man Of the South have the same interest the
scme destiny;' that ''the two races must
prosper or perish together" that the whites
cherish ''no hostility towards the colored man
on account of his altered circumstances" and
exhorting the blacks, in the exercise of their
new rights and power, 'to try those of the
community whom they have known-those
who have the same interests and not to
experiment en- the sympathies of strangers
until they find themselves deceived by their
white brethren of the South.
1t is evident that the white citizens of South
Carolina have resolved to accept the situation,
and by a prompt and mastery movement
towards immediate reconstruction under the
Sherman act, to seize and hold control of the
negro vote before the Republicans have time
to obtain a commanding influence over the
freedmen through the machinery to be ope-
rated by Secretary Stanton. If all the excluded
States should adopt a similar policy, and push
forward the work OF reconstruction in the same
spirit and with equal promptness and vigor,
they might yet make themselves masters of
the position and eiiectually overthrow all the
plans of the radicals. By such movement
the whole South could be brought back into
the Union before the next Presidential cleo
tiOn, and the disfranchised whites would have
as complete political control over their several
States as if the ballots remained in their own
hands and the shackles were still on the arms
of their former slaves.
