a BRACE OF uRopIsTs-MAcSEY
AND RoBERTsoN.-Almost every day, says
the Charleston Mercury, we find some
startling piece Of news about persons and
things at home. The following extract
from the Washington correspondence of
the Adrocate, a Chicago paper, will be
very new to our readers. 1t would be
particularly interesting to know what has
become of those slaves "NIackey freed
before the rebellion;" to say nothing of
that distinguished humanitarian, who call
ed his negroes together and told them
they were free Here is the elegant "ex-
tract:"
"There is great rejoicing among Repub-
licans over the result of the election in
South Carolina; Cardoza mentioned as a
candidate for the United States Senate,
declined on the ground that it was best
for his race, not to be put forward in Of.
flee too rapidly. He will accept the office
of Secretary of State, to which he has
been elected The Senators will probably
be DR. A. G. Mackey, who was President
of the Convention, and T. j. Robertson,
of Columbia, who was staunch Union
man throughout the war. They are both
natives of South Carolina, and were noted
for giving sympathy and material aid to
Union prisoners. Mackcy freed his slaves
before the rebellion; Robertson called his
together on learning of Lincoln's procla,
tion and told them they were free. The
most of them remained with him; he
now employs two hundred OH his planta-
tion near Columbia, and has given home
stead of from five to ten acres to each
head of family, who remained"

= Old Ben. Wade voted for President
Johnsons conviction. That is, he voted
for himself for Presidency. Most of his
friends had professed to believe him inca
pable of the indelcacy, coarseness, gross
ness, and vulgarity of voting for himself,
but they knew little of the mean, vile
nature and character of the man. Most
persons, sooner than do what he has done,
would gladly let themselves be caught
with their neighbors mutton, bacon, and
poultry upon their shoulders. His politi-

"A Chicago letter written ON the
night of the meeting of the Republican
Convention says: "Thero nevor was such
direct and nndisguised bargain and sale of
votes in convention as is going on here
tonight in the interest of Governor Fen
ton. AS much as five hundred dollars is
openly offered for influential votes in the
Southern delegations. Fenton has al
ready boughtup Louisiana, and is bidding
TOR Virginia, Alabama, South Corolina
and Georgia. The Louisiana delegation
cost fiftoen hundred dollars. In reply to
a charge Of corrupt use of money, ono of
Fenton's friends said tonight that the
Southern delegates were poor men, and
the money was given to them, not to pay
for their votes, but to reimburse them for
their travelling expenses"

follow this established rule Of construc-
ton, and, therefore, subjects itself to the
charge of special pleading and verbal
quibbling in grave issue of State policy.
Once for all, we ask leave now distinctly
to declare:
l. That we maintain, "with President
johnson and the whole Democratic party
North.'' that the whole reconstruction
programme enacted and to be enacted
under the Military Bill of Congress, is un-
constitutional, illegal and properly null
and void.
2. That we, therefore, repudiate the ad-
missions made by Gov. Orr, in his address
to the so-called Constitutional Conven-
ton, wherein he acknowledged the legal
+ ity of that body.
3. That we maintain, that to the States
belongs the question of negro suffrage.
And further, chat, believing an affirmative
declaration on this subject expedicnt and
essential to party vitality, and a move in
the direction of Justice and fair dealing,
we deem it becoming and right now to
say what, in our sovereignty, we would
be willing to concede to the colored ele-
ment. And further, the negro elcmentin
our midst being large one, we deem it
craftsmanship not to ignore it.
4. We appreciate, as fully as any, the
dignity and claims of the white race, and
contend that their political control of this
State, and the country at large, is a right,
which must never be given up. This
must be, and shall be, par excellence, a
white mans government.
6. But, at the same time, confident and
strong in the knowledge of the white
mans power, influence, and resolve, wo
hold it magnapimous, just and right, to
give the colored man fair showing, and
to set premium upon industry, intclli-
gence and worth, whenever these ele-
ments are found in him. We would cx-
tend no consideration TO the black mans
radical advisers from the North, nor to
his renegade adherents, South but, as re-
spects the great mass of the colored peo-
pIc themselves, in consideration OF their
own inexperience, and the influences TO
which they have been subjected, we are
disposed to indulge them yet longer.
"Be to their faults y little blind;
BE to their virtues little kind
And put a paddock on our minds
As to the past"
have thus declared what I conceive
to be the views and principles of the
Democratic party of this State, as now
organized under the auspices of tho April
Convention. And, in conclusion, have
only to express the hope that, when these
views and principles are called in ques-
ton, that they may be met in a spirit of
fair discussion. and in spirit, too, which
deplores any division among the conserv-
ative people of the State, and which real
ICES, that for us, atthis time, moderation,
union and harmony arc all-essential.
As tor myself, believe that the prnci-
pies set forth at the April Convention are
both right and expedient, and ] contend
further, that. as such, they have been re.
cievcd and adopted by the great body OF
the white people Of tho State. Yours,
very respectfully,
JouN p. THOMAS.

The Yuma Indians.

As the greater portion of the Yumas now reside in this Territory, the following account of the tribe, written in 1852, by Hon. D. B. Wilson, may interest some of cur readers:
 The Yurnas range from New river to the Colorado, and through the country between the latter river and the Gila, but may be said to inhabit the bottom lands of the Colorado. Here the first missionaries found them about the year 1776-1, and made two establish nents which were soon destroyed.
 Eight soldiers, and as many settlers with their families, formed pue5los. "As the Faith CTS had no presents to make to them" says the old narrative, sthe reduction of the In dians was difficult; still they frequented the pueblos to traffic with the soldiers and settlers. Through this intercourse and the aid of a good interpreter, the Fathers succeeded in baptiziDg a few; and, as these did not live in The pueblOs, but in their rancherias with the Gentiles, having the same freedom and GUS toms, they very seldom came near the Mission ID say their prayers. Tine Fathers were thus under the necessity of hunting them up through the rancherias and staying some days with them to say the eatechisn, teach them q little, and attract them to mass on boly days, all of which gave much labor and molestation to the FatherS. Add to this, the resentment of the GeBtiles al seeing the grass and other herbage consumed by the horses and cattle of the soldiers and settlers, SO that they were deprived of the seeds which before supported most of them They saw at the same time that the settlers had appropriated the small
 parcel of available lard, and that they could no longer SOW there, as before, their corn, beans, squashes, and water-melOns" If the Fathers did little for the Indians, they seem to have been successful with the soldiers and settlers, for, continues the narrative, fearful

FROM ARIZoNA.-We were fortunate tEis week in receiving three or four numbers of the MINER, of Prescott, from the Sth to the goth of August. In looking over these pa- pers, we regret to find that the Territory is still the scene of barbarous murders by "the noble redn Notwithstanding which, there IS an evident determination on the part Of the settlers to maintain their ground, and push along in the path of enterprise and conquest. Mines are being prospected and worked, and farms are being cultivated. although all is done at the risk of life. The troops are in the country, and it is to be supposed that the officers do their duty, but still stock are sto- len, men are murdered and but few of the To family are brought to account, except when the citizens go after them. We have seen it stated somewhere, that there is a change con templa,ed in the command of the Territory that General Crittenden is to give place to some other commander. These frequent changes are great disadvantage to the coun- try, and to carry into effect such operations as may be deemed necessary to check the in- cursioBs of the sayages upon the homes of our citizens. ThIs cannot be done in q Jew months, which is about all the time a com manding officer is permitted to hold his place in the Territory.
