cOLoRED CONSERVATIVES.

At meeting of the conservative Union Club"
of Yorkville, at the Court House on Monday even
ing last, the following preamble and resolutions,
with reference to coored Conservatives were unani-
mously adopted. Weinvite the attention of other
Clubs throughout the State to the action of the
York Club, and request them, at least, to consider
the proprety of similar action.
Whereas, We desire, for the future as in the
past, that kindly relations should be cherished to-
wards the colored people and that we will afford
them every opportunity and privilege in our power
whereby they may become instructed in the duties
of citizenship, and in furtherance Of these views,
be it
Resolred, That the colored people be invited to
attend the meetings of this Club, and that such as
choose to do so be invited to enrol their names as
members of the same.
Resolved, That we, the members of this Club,
do cherish, patronize, and otherwise uphold and
sustain those coored persons who have patriotical
ly and ntegently decided that the interests Of all
classes in this State are identified with each other
and who have voted to sustain this principle; and
we do further pledge ourselves to prefer those per
sons who are members of this Club, in the matter
of employment and wages, over and above all other
persons whomsoever.

THE LATE ELECTION.

- This election has not resulted as we hoped and
expected it would The failure results partly from
the indifference manifested by some of our citizens,
in regard to the issue before them and partly
from the heavy rains prevailing during the three
days of election These rains flooded many of the
numerous streams in the District, until it became
almost impossible to cross them. The negroes did
as they were instructed-voted en- naasse on Tues
day and it had been well if the Conservatives had
adopted their example 1t was not until afsf
Tuesday, that the streams become too much s%ol-
len for crossing.
But our failure is nevertheless inexcusabe. The
contest for District officers is soon to come off, and
we will have then an opportunity to wipe out the
disgrace of our late defeat Therefore, let every
man to work at once. Organize Conservative
Union Clubs throughout the District put these
organizations in communication with central or
ganzation at this place, and then strive to perfect
and enlarge in every possible way these organiza,
tons. By these means we can succeed. five
neglect them, We may fail again. We all acknow'
ledge that success in the coming election is mat
ter much more important than that which enga
ged our attention last week. 1t will be crimina
in US to sleep over our fortunes now. -

ranked the other. President Lincoln, it seems,
wrote on slip of paper the above names in the
order they appear, leaving Butler last, and, OF
course, outranEed by the other two When Butler
learned this he repaired to the War Department
and raised great commotion, contending that as
he had put his troops in the field before the others
he was entitled to seniority of rank. Thomas, who
was acknowledgement at the time, fell in his way,
and was taken to task for placing the martial tro
in the order they have been given "There has
been some shutting going on in your department
and you are traitor" exclaimed the highly IN;
famed hero of many unfought fields. General
Thomas, with his usual calm expression, surveyed
Butler agitated form, and measuredy responded,
"you're a liar" A lively scene ensued; Butler
doubled his digits and placed both his hands a. IN IN
retary of War and group of amazed spectators
looked wonderinglyon. Thomas reiterated bis con-
viction of Buffers veracity, and the latter who
never cares to encounter determined opposition,
dropped his threatening attitude and ingloriousy

Row IN THE MISSISSIPPI CONVENTION; On
Friday last the Convention passed an Ordinance
forbidding all persons from holding office who in
any way aided in the rebellion unless the disabilI-
ties were removed by vote Of two-thirds of each
House. Pending the motion to reconsider, MIR.
Townsend claimed that the yeas and nays had been
called for, but the President denied it whereupon
Townsend accused the President of falsehood. He
was called to order by colored delegate, who
moved to censure. Townsend replied that he did
not care for the censure of the Convention and in
timated that there we're no gentlemen on the rad!-
cal side of the house. Barry, author OF the ordl-
nance replied that if they should gauge their status
by that Of Townsend, be was correct. Townsend
retired from the hall, invited Barry to follow him,
which he declined. After adjournment, Town
send denounced Barry, but no collision occurred;
Townsend then assaulted Morgan Of Yazoo, but
the crowd interfered Afterwards he assaulted
Eggleston, the President Of the Convention, and
after brief but severe struggle, they were separa-
ted, both being on the ground, Townsend upper,
most. The military was called out, but the crowd
dispersed before they reached the scene. Town
send is conservative, and was Q Federal ofhcer.
All of the conservatives and some Republicans have
withdrawn from the Convention. The next day
Townsend was expelled.

Why, then, are we so long asleep? A distaste-
full and obnoxious government has, without the
consent of decent man in South Carolina, been
manufactured for us, and is now about to be put
in operation. We must live under it, for time,
or quit the State Where will we go and how
The majority of our people are compelled to re-
main here, and share the evil fortunes of the old
commonwealth. Recognizing, then, that such
matst be our course, let US unite in one worthy ef
fort to make the best of our hard fortunes-to
shape as far as practicable, for good the evil ele
ments that cucumber us-and to secure all the
good we can, out of the present.
To carry out these objects effectively, we should
call the colored people together and eudeavor to
disabuse their minds of the idea that there is en-
nifty or opposition of interests between their race
and ours We have witnessed much good result
from such efforts already. We should break up
those secret organizations known as Union Leagues.
How? By discountenancing and refusing to en-
ploy, or in any way patronize those who are mem
bers of these secret and dangerous associations
The monied power of the country can thus be made
to exert its proper influence. The most powerful
weapon of radicasm in the country, is to be found
in these League associations. Once break them
up and release the colored people from the blind
fanaticism that willy Office seekers have instilled
into them through their agency, and there is a
hope that these newly made voters can be induced
to listen to the counsels of those who are in reality
their true friends.
LET Us THEN ORGANIZE WITHOUT DELAY. There
is danger in procrastination. A thorough organi-
zation of the Conservative element is necessary for
more reasons than one. We do not know how far
our safety in the future, and the peace and secur
ty of our homes may depend upon these organiza-
