Tho Proposed Con vention.

The Charleston Courier remarks,
on the subject of the proposed Con-
vention, as appended below. AS for
ourselves, we are willing to let the
matter rest just where the State Gen.
trail Executive Committee suggest it
ought to rest, viz: with the people
themselves. But let us remind the
Courier of two points-1st. That the
Edgefeld resolutions called for no
Convention, but simply invited an
expression of opinion from the State
Central Executive Committee, and
Democratic Clubs in the State, as to
the propriety of Convention; and,
secondly, that the suggestion of the
State Central Committee did not
proceed from the action of the
Charleston meeting, but was penned
in advance of said action:
"We publish, with pleasure, the
annexed circular of the State Central
Executive Committee of the Demo
cratic party, coupling with its appear
ance the expression of our earnest
desire that the other Districts of the
State may deem it advisable to adopt
the suggestions of Edgefeld. as rati-
fed here Saturday last, and send
delegates to the Convention, pro-
posed to be holden in Columbia, on
the second Monday in June. In The
Convention, held in April, Charles
ton and eight other Districts of
influence and wealth, were, by reason
of the shortness of the notice given,
wholly unrepresented, and we think,
that in the canvass upon which we
are shortly to enter-one of vital
Importance, not only to South Caro-
lima, but to every State in the Union
the voices of our best men should be
heard from every quarter, and such
organization and unity should be
effected as will guarantee our success.
We therefore urge upon our friends
in other parts of the State, to send
their delegates at the time specified,
and let us have full and free express
sion Of opinion upon the great ques-
tions of the day, and also place the
organization of the Democratic party
of this State on perfect and work
ing basis"

Yet Another Point.

Mr.. EDITOR: There are gentle men
in Charleston who insist upon it,
that the Columbia Convention de-
signedly ignored Charleston. What
are the facts? Although Charleston
had failed to respond and to unite in
council with the other parts of the
State, yet two citizens of Charleston
we're specially honored--Mr. Porter
was put on the ticket for Governor;
Mr.. Hayne was nominated for Attor-
ney-General. And yet these were
the only two, of all the gentlemen
nominated, who felt it their duty to
withdraw their names from the ticket
which added to the natural embar.
easements that the party labored
under.
1t is said by gentlemen in Charles
ton that we were ambitious. WHY,
the reverse is the case. Twice we
offered Charleston the kingly crown,
which twice she did refuse. Did his
in us seem ambition? Yet Mr.. J. B.
@. saws we were ambitions, and he 10
an honorable man. ANTHONY.

Friday Morning. May 20, 1858.
The Election In Rich1and.

IAo 4kACctIOh 1kICnlonQs
The election for District officers
will come of on the I'd of June next.
The Democratic nominees are all
good men and true. and we hope that
they will be sustained not only by
the Democratic party, but by conser-
vative voters generally. principles,
not men," is the motto Of some;
"Mep, not principles" is the prac-
tice OF others. But when we have
good men and good principles COM
bined, then all may vote together.
Such is the case with the Democratic
nominees. and they deserve the sup
port of the pubic-colored people
and all.
AS to the radical candidates, we
acknowledge some are men who stand
well in the community, and are
blameless in their private character.
With regard to these gentlemen, we
know that their secession record is
good, and for that we honor them.
There, for instance, is our friend,
Major Miller, whom we have to
thank for a gallant war record; there
is Captain Wigg, whom, we learn,
rendered faithful Confederate service;
and there is that veteran editor, Mr..
Johnston. one of the most fiery of
secession editors, and one who spoke
bravely for ''letting slip the dogs of
war" in times gone by. AS to such
men, we have only to say, that we
regret the course that they have
taken. We cannot presume that
they have become radical, in the
offensive sense of the term; but they
have lent to the radical party the in
huence OF their names; and if we
had brother in their place, we
would deposit our vote against him
for, as we conceive, grave public con-
siderations would demand this course.
In sorrow, not in anger, must our
Democratic and conservative voters
decline to vote for the nominees of
the radical party-a party that seeks
the elevation of the colored man
over the white man. With regard to
the radical nominee for sheriff, all
will admit that he is hard case; and
we will be surprised to find any con-
siderable portion, even of the colored
people, voting for that candidate for
public honors. Let the Democratic
party seek to put in their men; you
will find the radicals trying to do the
same for theirs.

A Backing Down at Chicago.

It will be remembered that Wen
dell Phillips and Mr.. Sumner advo-
Gated the duty of Congress to legis-
late unlimited negro suffrage into all
the States, both North and South,
and the proposal was generally en-
tertained by the Radical press. At
Chicago, this was repudiated, and the
second resolution of the platform ex-
plicitly affirms, that "the question of
suffrage, in all the loyal States, pro-
perry belongs to the people of those
States" This is significant admis-
sion. At the same time, it shows that
the radicals are wisely preparing to
use every effort to insure their sue.

will profit by the example. A6 Aoste

an article before us, we learn that
this park-destined in time to be the

The Radical Party.

When Fessenden and his party
voted against the President's convic-
ton, upon Article II, they broke loose
from the Radical party. and in doing
so, carried with them much. II not
all, the intellect and integrity OF that
party. We doubt not but that they
were glad to rid themselves Of con-
nection with faction driving on to
it's own destruction. That party
has given way already on what pro-
missed at one time to be the aggres-
sive feature of their platform. It
will be seen that they concede, at
least to the loyal States, the right to
settle, each State for itself, the ques-
tion of suffrage. This is clear
backing down, and looks like a re-
turn to Democratic principles. Their
policy is beautifully consistent. 1t
is to force unlimited Suffrage on the
so-called rebel States, but to let the
so-called loyal States regulate the
matter for themselves. According to
Mr.. Carl Schurz and Mr.. Logan:
"What's sauce for the goose, is not
sauce for the gander."
The daily phoenix. [volume] (Columbia, S.C.) 1865-1878, 1868-05-29

We noticed, some time ago, MS one
of the encouraging political signs of
the times, the passage of q resolution
in the Democratic State Convention of
South Carolina, declaring that they
favored the admission of negroes to
the right of suffrage. whenever they
should be found qualified to exercise
it with intelligence. This was an
abandonment of the doctrine that
none but white men have any right
to self-government, or to any share
of political power, in this country.
We see now that this action of the
Convention was not satisfactory to
the whole party in the State, end on
other Convention is to be held for
the purpose of reconsidering it.

RHYMES FOR NAUGHTY LITTLE IN.
PARCHMENT BoYs.-The following
paraphrase on popular nursery
rhyme is now being sung in Wash
ington City:
Little Ben. Butler,
The eminent sutler,
Tried to mix an impeachment pie;
When he thought it all made,
And the country betrayed,
Lo! it splashed up call in his eye."
Ben. Wade had little hope
Now don't know where to find it;
So he'll let it alone,
And stay at home,
And the people, We think, won't
mind it.
Thad. and Ben,
Two foolish men,
Both went impeachment after;
But both fell down,
And broke their crown,
And now comes in the laughter.
Sing the song impeachment,
Congress wants to rule!
Andy, in the White House,
Scorns to be their tool;
Stevens on the war-path,
Shouting blood and thunder;
Boutwell, playing heayy-mnn,
Crying "Stapd from underv'
Butler, sick and bilious,
Splitting out his slime
Up comes Andy johnson,
And knocks them out Of time.

The British captives in Abyssinia,
it is stated, as soon as they had be-
come assured of their deliverance
from the hands Of Theodore, COM
menced abusing each other without
stint. The prospect of speedy death
does not prevent captives from quar-
reling in their prison house. It is
related, that afterlthe re-capture of
Seringspatam by the British forces
in India, the officers who had been
confined in the sweltering dungeons,
Immediately proceeded to settle their
disputes by an appeal to the duel.

An interesting meeting was held at
Geiger's Mill, Lexington District, on
Saturday, the 23d instant, for the
purpose of forming a Democratic
Club. A considerable crowd was in
attendance, both white and colored,
from which one might easily have
inferred that something was ga goin'
to happen. H. H. Geiger was
asked to take the Chair, and DR.. W.
j. Geiger to act Us Secretary. The
object of the meeting was briefly
explained, after which James Minor,
colored citizen of Columbia, was
introduced, and spoke at length to
the audience, concerning our conf
mon interests, and the friendly rela-
ton which should exist between the
colored and white man of the South,
in order that peace, prosperity and
happiness might be preserved. He
referred to several good colored citi-
zens of Columbia, who had separated
themselves from that radical persua-
sion which only kindles animosity in
the two races, and would be glad
soon to hear that oil his country
friends, both white and colored, who
had been misled, would follow their
example, to insure peace and quiet.
A club was then organized, under the
following officers, viz: Major j. H.
Threewits, President; Henry Sight
Ter, Vice-President DR.. w. J. Gel
ger, Secretary J. S. Lowman, Trea-
surerer and Abram Geiger, E. W.
Geiger: George Singleton, and Jo-
seph Washington, Executive Com
nittee.
On motion, thanks were rendered
James Minor for his sensible address.
The meeting then adjourned, to meet
again on Saturday next. at 3 O'Clock

A CAMPAIGN PAPER.-The proprie-
tor of the Phoeni.c has received seye-
raj communications from prominent
and influential gentlemen of the up
country, asking that he publish, for
the benefit of the conservative peo-
pie of the State-black and white
alike-a cheap campaign paper, de-
voted especially to political informa-
tion and suggestions and truths, to
the end that the cause of the Demo-
cratic party be strengthened, and
that whites and blacks alike may
realize that the peace and prosperity
of the State depend upon the adop-
tion of the conservative principles
set forth in the platform of the De-
mocratic party Of this State. He has
conferred with the State Central
Executive Committee of the party
here, and they advise that, inasmuch
as the Picnic is already carrying out
the views which our friends of the
upper country desire enforced, the
Weekly Gleaner, issued from this
office, and containing the matter of
our daily issues, be directed to the
campaign purposes alluded to. He
proposes, therefore, to devote one
half of the Cleaner TO political mat
ters, and to make it, par excellence,
paper for the political use and pur-
poses of the conservative movement
in this State. The Weekly Cleaner,
for the next six months, will, there
fore, be furnished at the following
rates:

VALLEY ITEMS,

Col. Chafin, a "Native Vireinian," and
the smallest man living, being AZ years old,
25 inches high and weighing but q pounds,
has been on exhibition in the upper Valley.
He is all that he is represented to be and a
great curiosity, and especially when contrasted
with his brother, who accompanies him, and
is over six feet in height,
- William Terrell, an iron founder at
Catharine Furnace, met with a fatal accident
at that place on Friday evening the 10Th inst
The circumstances, as far as they are known,
are about as follows:
At about 5 o'clock in the evening, a few
minutes before they were ready to cast, Mr..
Terrell walked out of the foundry. The bell
was rung and the hands assembled to let out
the metal. Mr.. Terrell did not return, and
some one was sent to look for him. After a
search of a few minutes his hat was found in
the engine house. The engine was stopped
and his dead body was found in the bottom
Of a wheel-pit
1t is supposed that his clothes were caught
by the Hy-wheel-a wheel weighing about
two tons and making about seventy ~revolu~
tions per minute.-and that he was thrown
into the pit and instantly killed. His body
was terribly bruised but no bones were broken.
