+ take this method of expressing my
Vows on the subjects discussed on that
occasion. It is with some reluctance that
I express these, views, as | do not concur
in the policy advocated by the meeting.
Is it desirable that the people OF the
State shoald take any action looking to a
restoration of civil government at pres
ent? L think not; and for these reasons:
The State is either a member OF tho
Federal Union, or it is not. 1t men,
Der, then not only is it a work OF supere-
rogation for her to ask admission to the
Union, but she is, by the Constitution OF
the United States, guaranteed republl-
can form of Government, and she has the
right to administer her Government un-
der such q constitution and by such laws
as. she chooses. But if she is, on the con-
.trary, not member of the Union, she
must be regarded either as a Territory,
or as q conquered province. In either
condition. the United States authorities
are charged with the duty Of providing q
nroper Government for her, and l think
the true policy of the State is to remain
: passive until such Government is given
to her, or IS 1Orceu upon nei. - 'uo
course indicated by the meeting here is
followed by the State, what Will DC the
result? Will it lead to the restoration OF
The Union as it existed, and to the re-cs-
fablishment of the constitution and laws
of this State? do not think that such
will be the case. TO restore the State to
the Union by the plan contemplated in
the resolutions adopted by the meeting
here it will be necessary to call con-
vention of the State. That convention,
chosen as that will be, will represent the
wishes of the people of the State, is an
impossibility. % But passing over II this il,
grave objection, there remains the still
.erayer one as to the adoption of con-
stitution. Are the people of the State
willing, by the adoption. of new and ID
totally different constitution, to ignore all
the teachings Of tho past, to subvert tho

whole order of society, to change, in a
moment its whole organization, and, in
word, to commit Gf the expression may
be used) political suicide? Yet this is
the inevitable tendency of the course re-
commended by the meeting. No ono, for
moment, supposes that the State Will
be admitted into the Union with its pres
ent constitution. To gain admission, the
State must come with constitution rep
resenting, not the views and interests OF
the people of South Carolina, but those
of Massachusetts. 1t may be urged that
the State must come with such a consti-
tuition, or not come at all. If such is the
fact, then let her not come az all. The
United States Government will hold the
country, as it now does, by military occu-
patton; it's troops will be present to inau-
gurate and enforce the new system OF Ia
Dor decreed by the President of the Uni
ted States, and the people, though con-
quered, will not have the additional hu-
initiation and reproach which they would
bring upon themselves, if they consent to
destroy their own constitution, which was
bequeathed to them by their fathers.
Besides these various reasons against
the policy advocated by the meeting, it
appears to me that it is premature for
the people to move at present The au-
thorities at Washington have not indica-
ted the course they propose to pursue to-
wards the State, nor have they manifest
ed great zeal in the restoration of that
Union for which they have professcdly
been fighting for the last four years.
They have not asked the State to return
to the Union, nor have they announced
the terms upon which it can do so. When
they have done these things, it will be
time enough for the State to take counsel
how to act.
recommend, then, with all Difference
to yourself and the gentlemen over whom
you presided the other day, that the peo
pie. should remain perfectly quiet, taking
no action whatever in public affairs
Leave all these. matters to the United
States Government, which will, doubtless,
in good time, provide a Government tor
you. Until that is done, the cartridge
box can take the place Of the ballot-hoX,
and the bsyonct is IL good substitute for
the law .aktis better to be governed by
these thanzto give to your State const-
tuition which msrepresents the wishes of
the people, humiliatcs their pride, de-
bauches their society, destroys their pros
pcrity and dcgrades their State.
L have the honor to be, very respectful

Sleeping Equality.

The Enterprise (Miss.) Star tells the
following good story of q minister we'll
known among the Methodists. on Pearl
River, but who has moved to Alabama:
A friend has jnst stepped in who gives
us the following as practical test Of the
sincerity Of the newly converted Radi-
Gals. We recommend its general adop
ton by those of our colored people whose
votes and influence the Radicals are en-
deavoring to obtain by a regular system
of equality hoodwinling:
Rev. Mr.. Tallcy, of the Montgomery
Conference of the Methodist Episcopal
Church South, who is q ''weak vessel =
has been brought up by the emissaries of
the Northern Methodist Church. In the
ignorant zeal of o new convert, who of
course wished to render some service for
his money, he went into the Summerfeld
District, over which DR.. a. FL. Mitchell
presdes, and began the propagation of
the perfect, equality doctrine among the
colored people. This equality he carried
Beyond, and as the legitimate result was
lionizcd by the negroes.
An old gentleman of the white persua-
sion, residing in the ncighborhood where
this missionary of equality was laboring,
saw proper to doubt Mr.. Talley' sincerity,
and told favorite boy-an old time house
and body servant, who bad imbibed great
confidence in Mr.. Talley as q sincere
equality man-that he had as well keep
his money, if he intended to give Mr..
Tallcy any, until he could test his sim
cerity. A new idea struck Jack. MIR.
Talley was to stay all night at Jacks
masters. When he retired to bed Jack
accompanied the reverend turn-coat to
his room and held him in long converse
ton on tho equality doctrine, until Mr..
Talcy was fully committed to it, and
thoroughly sleepy, he took off his coat
ready for bed; so did Jacks. Talley's
pants off; Jacks ditto. "Looll here
Jack, what are you up to" quoth Mr..
Talley.
"Nufin tall sir. Dcs going to be
down to- somefn, dat's ALL, replied Jack.
"What's that you arc going TO be down
to-" said his reverence.
"Well, Use goin to bed with you, dat's
all dcre is about it. l is jes as good as
you is, according to the Lords gospel by
you, and l am tired of sleeping wild myself
in dc shucl1 pcn So is going to sleep
wild you in masters bed" said Jack.
Mr.. Talley took q deliberate, indignant
survey OF Jack from head to foot, slowly
put on his clothes, went to the stable,
bridled and saddled his horse, and Lett
that hill saddcr and wiser man.

sSSery important matters soon to be sub

have no jntention to oppose the execution
of any law, were it in our power !;
but under the Reconstruction Act, certain

upon us entire responsibility for all con-
sequences. which may flow therefrom
:.Me: believe this responsibility to be very
grave, and these consequences vital to
: every class of our community, inseparably
connected as are the interests of all. Re-
cent events show that there is no longer
"a possibility of that entire harmony of
action among our people, for which you
) and we have heretofore hoped and striven.
The views of the whole community are
unsettled by the new aspect of affairs,
and the people look to those who COM
snand their confidence for course OF ac-

desire the prosperity of the State.
Hesitating to intrude upon you in your
Withdrawal from public affairs, but be-
lieving that your own appreciation of the
emergency will excuse our request; that
your well proven patriotism will irresisti-

A WONDERFUL BABY.-The Ottumwa

few days ago, in keokuk county, a babe
six months old was crying Justify, and the
usual appliances seemed to have no effect:
1t still cried, and the mother was pcrplexed
to know what the trouble was. At last,
after it seemed almost exhausted, it spoke
with startling distinctncss these words:
"Givc me drink of water - OF course
the mother was frightened, but she gave
the water, when it Immediately went TO
sleep The infant had never spoken be-
fore, nor has it since. We can vouch tor
the truth of the above, as VIC are person
ally acquainted with the parents of the
child"

The figures representing the msjOrity
against negro suffrage in Ohio qrotC, a.
the returns approach completion. The
majority is now set down at sixty 10 one
hundred thousand. The Radicals con-
cede q majority OF sixty-fve thousand,
while the Democrats claim one hundred
thousand. Ohio has been heretofore
deemed the center of Western Radical
ism. Itis the home Of CHASE, STANTON,
BINGHAM and WADE. This result is
appalling TO Radicalism. IL upsets the
whole basis Of their legislation to render
the negroes supreme, and, at one blow,
overturns all their hope for the future.
This result has been obtained in the
face OF the largest vote cast in Ohio for
three years.
The significance OF this vote may be
estimated when it is remembered that
only q few th0usand-a mere handful-
OF negroes would have been e~nfranchised
il the people Of Ohio had accepted the
amendment establishing negro suffrage.
II this would have been an intolerable
evilin Ohio, what must be the effect OF
negro suffrage in Tennessee and other
Southern States where the negro voters
are in the ascendant ? The i~nterrogatOry
carries irresistible logic with it. The
people Of Ohio do not intend to give over
any portion Of the United States to semi
barbarism. viii the Radical leaders
