sented to the honorable Senate the. ,chnractcr
Of the mon, as we'll those who fran,od the
Constitution as those who's are to lcgislate under
its provisions. It will be seen that they repre-
sent not the wealth of the State neithes IFS
commercial, nor its agricultural, nor its me-
chanicul interests. That they do not represent
it's Intelligence, it's tone and its sentiments,
may be regarded as sclfevidcnt proposition,
70 establish which requires no argument. It
is shown, also, how little Interested i'll the mat
ter Of excessive taxntien .hcy;, Til be who shall
levy the taxes, and how very little of taxes
they will represent who shall make the laws in
South Carolina aud how small an amount,
too, they will be found to contribute to the re-
venues of the State, who shall mainly-nay,
almost entirely sustain the new law -givcrs,
which Congress has given to the South.
In behalf, therefore, Of justice and fair deal
ing, representing the just claims of the white
citizens of South Carolina, without further
comments, VIC have the honor respectfully to
submit statistical argument contained i'll these
exhibits, and to express the hope that it may
appear to your honorable body, wcighty enough
to induce tic rejection at your hands, of the
Constitution proposed for South Carolina.

clark from tho Tombs" Story.

This good yarn, for the truth of which 'Sut
vouchcs, that is, Sin the main lko aman takes
wife" as he phrases it, has appeared in several
paper. lately in all incomplete form:
Many years ago, Major Wallace, while
President Of the East Tennessee and Georgia ii
Railroad, chanced to be travelling over the line
in ear where there but few passengers, seated
opposite the stove, wrapped UP in his shawl
and mcditations connected with tho gigantic
job, which he had undertaken, building rail
road without money! when night calmo on
Presently, in bounded brakeman, loudly
sluming the door behind him-onc of those
country gcniuscs, who, with laudabc awbi-
tion had, Il day or two ago, abandoned the
girls, the fiddle, and the ploug htail, to 'climb
i'll the world" to become brakeman He
had been tho king bee ut all the neighborhood
frolics, at the house rasings, at the corn shuck-
inss and at the cross roads doggery fighting
ground, and now he felt sure that he was
king bee on railroads Strutting up to the
stove he slammed down down his lantern,
kicked tho mud from his huge boots on, the
iootboard of the seat, spit tobacco juice copi-
ously and nosly on tho kissing stove, crossed
his muscular thighs, took survey of the
aforesaid boots, with harness leather straps,
and then bethought himself Of the 'sctfstoihet"
sitting opposite, on whom he proceeded to be-
stow a heightened, critical and saucy look, as
though he, doubted the customers" right to
be in the eosch at ALL. At length no sought
knowledge: .'' ~ ~
