NC that
hine-tenths Of our people are willing to con 3
lcede it to them, duly qualified VIC cannot
admit universal suffrage because the great
body of the colored people arc utterly united
to exercise it with Intelligence and discretion
and because it would make the negro ,dom,i..
nant, and thus bring about a fatal antagonism
between the races. We cannot deny, il al.
together to the Black man, because that would
be neither right nor polite. Hence the policy
of the mean between the two extremes, which
has met with general favor in this State. The
Conservative party of Soysg Carolina now now
stands and gathers strezs,sl, day after day,
upon this proposition @Thc Convention of
the party lately passed tho following iresolui!:

State of South Carolina, heretofore taken, We
recognise the colored population Of the Stats
as all integral element OF the body polite;
and. us such, in person and property, entitled
to full and equal protection under the Stats

of South Carolina, we declare our willingness,

In behalf at least of the Democratic party
of South Carolina, which embraces nearly
every white inhabitant, aud many Of the color

policy represents the political sentiment Of tho
State. We offer this in good faith, as tho
basis of true, genuine and lasting recon
struction. This, we earnestly believe, is tho
peaceful solution of the great question of white
man and black man in the South. This solu.
ton we offer to the Conservatism of tho couh.

IMPORTANT ARREsr.-Johnny Roach was A.
rested on Saturday evening, by officer Crane, Of
this city, who had been watching for him for
two months past, for burglary committed in
Morris. Roach had kept himself hid in the tim.
Der on the south side of the Illinois River and
at night came ont to prey upon the hen.roosts
and orchards in the neighborhood. When
Roach was about IL years Of age, he was arrest
ed by Mr.. Crane on charge of stealing letters
from the Post Office. He was tried at the u. s.
Court in Chicago, and sent t. the Reform School
for three years. Since coming from that insti-
tuition, he has been worse than before, and spent
considerable part of his time in the prisons Of
various counties. He is now about 10 years Of
age, and cannot plead minority, as he has always
done heretofore, and will doubtless have chance
to work for the State for few years.
