NOW; sitting on and Idevouring the PROSTATE
7bodydof' the Estate, but our time honored

Caroli,iian. -, .
The trait traitors with whom the CaroZiaian is.
associated have already caused the people of
this 6tateto lose not less than threehundred
millions of dollars worth oe property. and
forty thousand valuable lives. They have
brought mourning and woe. to thousands of
households formerly blessed with abundance
and with every thing to render life happy,
They have. stnitten scores with insanity
others they have killed by the slow torture
of debt, want, and mortified pride Hun
dreds Of wohnen elckcasely reared, have been
driven to the wesh;stub by these same trait
ors, Thousands Of Ingenious youths have
been u consigned .stoi ignorance and opov-,
loerty by taesea traitors--tl,e very men who
will To-day assemble in this City to plot
new treason against the country. and to take
new steps to augment the ruin they have
caused. Poor old men and women. at one
time comfortable and happy, have had their
gray hairs brought down to the grave in
sorrow by these same traitors. And yet the
Ca'olinaGn talks about our State Treasury
being depleted'' and about political
blacklegs"-and about our "time-honored
manners and customs!" One of these Gus
toms was, power for the rich,- and contempt
! for the poor, no matter how virtuous or
worthy the latter might be. THIS 8 time
honored custom" has passed away. Another

ton, with handouts fpr the poor white man
to-make him fight. for slavery, and, twenty

for y shareholders. That custom is also
"innovated and destroyed" but those

$ forgotten, Our future customs will hi
drawn from the well of Truth. They viii
be measured by the rule of Right. Traitors
who may not like these customs will hav,
/ to lump them. They may complain, ant
fret, and threaten, but this can injure NJ

themselves as ridiculous as they please
But the loyal men intend so to cage ant

neither arrogant nor oracular, as the Sentinel

who has simply expressed his opinion as
member of the Convention on the subject
of suffrage and amnesty.1iAs generous as he
is in his Report, the Sentinel does not appre-

such maintains manhood suffrage, and that

A paper of this City contains low attack
on Col. l. A. Peck, Sergeant-at-arms of the
Convention, the object of which is to show
that he is not citizen of the State. Col.i
Peck removed to Wilmington in the latter
part of 1865. . 1t does not follow that he is
not citizen of that City, because, when
absent on business in Brooklyn, some Legal
process for debt was sworn out against him;
said process not being, as we are Informed,
justly orfairly sued out. We deprecate all
such personal attacks THEY promote ill

aoT The colored man has the right to vote be-
cause he is a free MAN. He does not say
to any man, 1 will swap you " universal
amnesty" for my right to vote. 1t is his
right, whether amnesty be granted or not.
There is no connection, it seems to us, be-
tween the two propositions. aa
Was Mr. johnson liberal " in 1865? He
not only dictated suffrage to these Southern
States by saying who should vote, but he de-
clared that three hundred thousand white
men should not vete. He went further and
said, that not one of these, thus banned.
should practice profession, or make or re-
ceive title to land, or transact any business
legally until he should be pleased to pardon.
Has Congress done any thing like that9
Does the Convention propose to do any thing.
like thate Certainly not. And yet Con-.
gress and the Convention are pronounced il,
liberal, harsh, wicked in their conduct, while,
Mr. johnson is held up as a paragon of
magnanimity and kindness towards our peo-
pie. The secret is, Mr.. johnson is against
manhood suffrage. This, after all, is the issue.
The Republicans are determined to establish
Z it; and the Rebels are determined, if possi-
BILE, to defeat it. If they accept the
political and civil equality of all men.
they surrender every thing They will
not do this is they can possibly avoid
it. This is, the point on which to press
them Tie them up just here, SO as TO
'cnt off all hope that in the future they NAV !.
be able to undo what is being done now
This is necessary for their good, for the good
of the people Of this State of all parties, for
the good of the country. Our people must .
have rest-rest from agitation and strife 50
as to heiable to devote themselves to the
building up of their ruined fortunes; and
they can not expect this rest as long as man
hood suffrage is left an open question. -aa,

These gentlemen will most probably never
