following incident, showing show some things can
be done ag we'll as Others" The example Isl Wor-
thy of record, and we take pleasure in placing il
before our readers:
A most interesting scene was witnessed in the
hnrvost-feld Of Wm. Hunter of this District, few
days since. When Mr. II. was making ready all
preliminary arrangements for his harvest, he was
modestly informed by his employees radical freed
men, that they would not harvest his wheat,
though under Obligations to do so, unless they re-
ceiyed extra pay for it. Though not expecting
such declaration of intention from them, Mr. H.
was in no way disturbed, but ever willing to ac-
cord TO them the full liberty which he claimed for
himself (of providing for his own Affairs as the
day of harvest drew on, he made ready sumptu-
ouu dinner for the occasion, and sent out for his
neighbors To come, for all things were then ready
They responded en- mas,e, and at an early hour, o
lnrse field of fine wheat was entered by thirty
white laborers, oil engaged in the various opera
tions Of harvesting. The field was reaped in an
incredibly short time and the whole operation per-
formed in full view of the sable malcontents. who
were '.like the boy the calf run over-hadn't Q

Mrs. MARY L. BLACK, wife Of J. W. Black, ESQ.,,
of Abbeville District, s. c., departed this life on
the morning of the 22d of APRIL aged AZ years and
IL days.
1t is seldom our duty to record more sad and
melancholy event than the death of this good wo-
man. She has been cut off in the prime of life,
amidst scenes Of great usefulness in the domestic
circle, as well as in the church, leaving husband
and four little children, besides many relative and
friends, to mourn her irreparable loss.
She was, indeed, good woman, q good wife, o
good mother, and sincere, devoted, consistent
and humble Christian. She was the daughter Of
Mr. and Mrs. Andrew McLees, of this District,
who taught her from early childhood the impor-
tance of entire conservation to Gods SERVICE and
at the age of ID years she made public profession
of her faith, and joined Roberts Church. At her
marriage she removed her membership to Little
Mountain Church in Abbeville, aud up to her death
she adorned her profession, and illustrated, both
in her life, and death, the power of converting and
sanc.ifying grace. She loved her church, and the
cauae of Christ vas ever near her heart
She was permitted TO attend the meeting Of the
Presbytery at Greenwood, when the ordinances Of
Gods house and the means of grace seemed to her
more precious than usual-because her Saviour
meant that to be her last time on earth to enjoy
them.
Immediately on her return home she took Pneu-
mona, and for five six days her suffering was
very great; still she never murmured or complain
ed; but calmnly resigning herself to the viii OK
God, she meekly said, SIT is all right" -
When in reply to her own inquiries, her attend

quietly said, SIT docs not disturb me, have been
looking forward to this time for years, and Ii am
prepared to meet it." She expressed desire to,
live on account of her little children, but she COM
mitted them to God, and gave some special direc-
tions concerning them-and after giving parting
charge to her sorrowng family and friends to meet
her in Hecven-without q struggle or groan she
died as fsbe had been going to sleep.

shsbilb for the admission Of Arkansas into the

took similar action on Monday, and Arkansas is

VETO OF THE ARKANSAS BILL.

WARRINGTON, June 20.
Tie Presidents veto of the Arkansas bill, was
read to-day. He says that the the approval of
this bill would be admission, that the "Act for
the more efficient government of the rebel States
and Acts supplementary thereto" we're proper and
constitutional. Whereas the Presidents opinion is
not changed in this respect, but rather strength
ened by the results attending their execution. If
Arkansas is not Staio, this bill don't admit her
if she is State, legislation is necessary TO her
repr eeentation in the United States Congress-
Each House, under the Constitution, judges the
returns and qualifications of its own members, and
nothing is necessary to restore Arkansas, but che
decision by each House of the eligibility of those
presenting credentials. This is plain and simple.
The plan of the Constitution. had it been adopted
in 1866 instead of legislation of doubtful consti-
tutionality, and therefore unwise and dangerous,
restoration would long since have been accomplish
ed. The President again recommends the adoption
of the Constitutional plan. The terms proposed
are scarcely applicable to Territory and certain
ly not to State which has occupied place in the
Union over quarter of a century. The President
is unable to find the authority for the conditions
of the bill in the Federal Constitution. The elec
tive franchise is reserved by the Constitution to
the States themselves. The bill fails provide how
Arkansas shall signify her acceptance of the fun
damental conditions; nor does it prescribe the
penalties for their qualification. 1t is seriously
questioned whether che Constitution has been ra-
Sed according to the law assumed to be in force
before its adoption. The Arkansas Constitution
restricted franchise, its ratification, by tests un-
known in the reconstruction acts-among them,
acceptance of political and civil rights of all men.
1t is we'll known that large portion, if not
large majority. of electors do not accept this test,
and, if applied to voters North there is reason to
believe many of them would remain away from the
polls, rather than comply with the degrading con-
ditions. The President concludes: 'Should the
people of Arkansas therefore, desiring to regulate
the elective franchise, 80 to make it conform to
the Constitutions of large proportion of the
North and West, modify the provisions referred 70
in the fundamental condition, what is to be the
consequence? Is it intended that denial of rep
resentation shnll follow? And if so, may we not
decide, ut some future day, recurrence of the
troubles which have SO long agitated the country
Would it not be the part of wisdom to take for our
guide the Federal Constitution, rather than resort
10 measures. which, looking only to the present,
may, in few years, renew, in an aggravated
form, the strife and bitterness, caused by legsla-
tion which has proved to be ill-timed and unfortu
nate.
