Statement from the State Central
Executive Committee.

Statement from tho State Central
Executive Committee.
We have been requested by the
State Central Committee to state, that
inasmuch as they are the officers of
the late Convention, they do not re-
gard it as their duty to Gail any other
Convention. If the dissentients de-
sire new Convention, let them call
it. These gentlemen are citizens of
the State, and have the same rights
that oil others citizens have. If it is
supposed that the late Convention
did not represent the sentiments of
the people OF the State, then let them
try that sentiment, and they will
then, we trust, be satisfied; they will
then, We trust, unite cordially with
the people, and not disunite them by
groundless complaints. 1t may be
that these gentlemen are correct, but
we are prepared to abide the issue
and the trial. Our advice now to
South Carolina is expressed in one
word, UNITY UNITY !! UNITY Il!
and not diuision at home among our
own people. This is no time to di-
vide, but it is the time to act har-
moniously, for the best interest of
our grand old State, Inundated as
she is, and sitting in her garments of
gcc, Weeping for ner children and
asking to be comforted.

From Gen. Canby's order. it will
be seen thasonly tiis raunicipal cleo
tons are postponed.
MUNroRAL EIECr1oN PosTPoNEp.
It has been already mentioned in
the Mercury, that Governor Orr had
written strong letter to Gen. Candy, q
on the subject Of .postponing thee
municipal elections. On Saturday,
a number of citizens presented
petition to the General, on the same
subject, and the following order was
issued from the headquarters of this
Military District, on Saturday after
noon:
[ General Orders No. S7.I a,..,s5-.-s-,,,1.
So much of General Orders No. ",
of April %, 1868, and the Circulars
of May 1 and May Ia, 1868. from
these headquarters, ms provides for
the election of municipal officers in
cities and Incorporated towns in
South Carolina, on the Cd of June
next, is hereby revoked; and the
officers to be chosen at that election
will be only the County officers
named in Paragraph III of General
Orders No. II, above referred to. :
The Mercury presumes that the
reason of the distinction made be-
tween municipal and County cleo
tions is, that County officers are
regarded as belonging to the Execu.
tive Department of the State Go
vernment, and according to an order
already issued, will not be allowed to
assume the duties Of the offices to
which they may be elected, until
after the State is admitted orepre-
sentation in Congress. Then the only
oath necessary for them to take in
order to qualify, will be the oath pre-,
scribed by the Constitution recently
carried by the forms of an election
in this State. {na

Is Impeachment Ended,

Mr.. Bingham says it is yet pend
ing. Mr.. Stevens declares the same.
And some of our radical cotempo-
raries are eagerly discussing the
chances oe conviction on the second
and one or two of the other articles.
1t is not the intention Of the mana
gers, evidently, to allow the affair to
drop; though whether they have
adopted the Springfield Republicans
suggestion, and propose that the Sc
nate shall carry about the verdict in
its belly, or whether they believe that
verdict of guilty may ultimately be
had, because of their Importantly we
are cruelty left to conjecture.
The Senate itself will nave some
thing to say on the subject. For
though it is understood that new
articles may be presented at any time
before the close of the trial, the Sc
nate, on resuming, may decide that
the proceeding shall close forthwith.
It cannot decide otherwise, without
making itself party to the unscru.
pulousness which has brought dis
credit on the prosecution. Apart
from the managers and q few extrem-
lists, the trial is considered already
over, and any attempt 20 press the
remaining articles, or to. prolong the
proceeding, is deprecated as inex-
pedient. The Tribune admits that
'the eleventh was deliberately, and"
it doubts not 'judiciously, selected
as the article that would command
most votes. This failing. all fail."
In the same spirit, the Albany Eren-
ing Journal-which We are sorry to
find echoing the current ISLANDERS
against Mr.. Chase and the seven Sc
nators-remarks:
"We regard the vote upon the
eleventh article of the impeachment
charges, rs tantamount ito acguittal
upon all. Some parties profess to
believe that there will still be a ma.
jority for the second article-but we
cannot conceive it possible, nor would
conviction, accomplished by change
in the attitude of any Senator, work
good to the country, or the Republi-
can party. impeachment is fail
ure, and MS such we must meetit,
however disegreeable the conclusion.
It is indeed to be regretted, that in
the excitement Of the hour, q vote
upon the remaining articles was post
poned until the Goth. The case should
have been closed by the Senate on
Saturday" ~
Delay will make the failure more
conspicuous, and the humiliation of
the impeachers more comnlate The
trial, per Sc, may be defended. We
always doubted its expediency, and
still doubt the sufficiency Of the
proofs adduced in support of the
charges. The most that can at pre-
sent be alleged against it, however,
is, that it was nnwisely conceived
and not wisely managed. But if the
prosecution, having selected the
strongest article, will not abide by
the verdict, but on the contrary seek
to continue the contest, by engineer
ing votes on other articles, or by re-
opening the case, and introducing
new charges, it will convict itself;
and the Senate, in tolerating the tao
tics, will sully the honorable record
earned during the progress of the
trial. Such course is certainly
possible, but We consider it very i'm,
probable. .-New York Times. ~

ton Of the Convention, nor of the
action OF the Executive COMMITTEES
appointed to be the executive agent

conservative propositions on the ques-
ton of suffrage does not suit those
gentlemen {, gentlemen s 81 tho the sou.
Finally, the resolutions suggest
another Convention, and provide for
Charleston taking care of herself, in
case the above proposition falls still
born. Upon these resolutions, we
offer no comment. The people will
answer for themselves.
As to Mr.. J. B. Campbell's speech,
| it was but m endorsement of Mr..
Rhett's propositions. The only fea-
ture we care to notice, was that he
excuses Gen. Wade Hampton from
any connection in the mis-doings of
that presumptuous committee that
omitted to call into its counsels the
weighty suggestions of the honorable
gentleman himself.
He excuses General Hampton, but,
at the same time, pays that distin-
guished soldier and statesman the
doubtful compliment of suggesting
that he was made the instrument of
doing Charleston what he calls g
wrong. r@.
We have this to say, that it is a
matter of regret that these gentlemen
should disturb the harmony that pre-
walls in the conservative ranks in this
State.
The Convent.oni that assembled
here, in April last, announced mas
ter policy. and initiated statesman
ship suited to the times. The move
ment has been followed up through
out the whole State, and attained
significance abroad. We scarcely
think that the adherents of that Con-
vention, and its policy, will yield to
the unreasonable demands that come
from the Charleston meeting. We say
the Charleston meeting, because we
do not believe that the two hundred
and fifty persons present on the occa-
sion referred to, justly represent the
sober feeling of that city. Going as
far as any one in the appreciation
of the noble characteristics that be-
long to Charleston, we believe that
she will not commit herself to
an antagonism against the Demo
cratic movement that has gained so
much ground in this State, and Sc
cured so many followers.

A letter from Gettysburg denies
the statement that the Confederate
dead are to be buried in the National
Cemetery at that place. The act
incorporating the Cemetery specifi-
cally sets apart the ground in per-
petuity for the burial of the remains
of the Union soldiers.

The New York Tribune declares
that nothing now prevents .the Pre-
sident from annulling every law
passed by Congress relative to recon.
struction. He has only to declare
void the military bill, recall the de-
partment commanders, dissolve and
aiepersc tine Southern State Legisla-
lures, and summon new Legislatures
to be elected by the white vote only.
If Gen. Grant refuses to issue or
transmit such orders, the President
may annul the bills placing the con-
troll of the army under Grant, and
order him to report for duty at
Galena, Illinois. Having had new
State Governments elected in tho
South on the white vote only, he
may call. a special session of Con-
gress, and by military force require
it to admit the Southern Senators
from his Johnsonizeds Governments
to their seats.
