the responsibility before us, and in all proba,

very large majority of this body, Recommend
earnestly, that in framing that feature of the
Constitution comforting tho elective franchise,
You establish an educational qualification for
tho voter. but--not being able 20 road or
write---thst you establish a apropcrty quaiifca-
tion.i s's
Second IT you desire that this Convention
should commend itself to the favorable consid >
Grafton of thcpeople of tho State, white and
eoiorcd, recommend that you adopt in the
Consultation n provision for liberal home
stead luw--that you mako it applicable to all
those who now own n homestead, and protect
resulting from the war, tho abolition Of slave.
ry, and, thereby, the wiping out of the for.
tunes Of tho very many of those who were
wealthy prior to the war, as a matter Of hu.
manity, demands that you should protect
them ms TO the past by a liberal homestead
law, and securing that homo to rs owner in
the future. The homestead law which guar
antees to family fifty dollars, or 100 acres in
the country, and town lot or house, in tho
u. Il
the country, where the head of family knows
that his homestead is protected, he goes TO
work to beautify and adorn the same. He
plants his orchard and his vineyard. He
erccts his buildings, decorates his dwelling, and
makes all Of bis surroundings comfortable.
| and invites happiness and content to his
hearth. ..
Perhaps one of tho greatest troubles in
American legislation has been In not protect
ing the homestead. 1t has made the Amcri.
can people almost rs great wanderers rs the
Arabs. When father planted an orchard or
a vineyards he had no assurance that, FIVE
years thereafter, the result of his care and
labor would not pass into the hands of stran-
gers. Grant, therefore, liberal homestead
law, providing against past and future debts,
SO that the white man who has his homo now,
aud tho black man who may secure n homo by
industry and economy, hereafter, can feel tina t
1t is secured to him, and you will find, not
only an increase in tho prosperity aud happi-

ono OF the reasons why so httic experience Is
70 be found ir your body :
I. To supply this defeiency, 1t is the duty Of
the Convention to give TO every question that
may be submitted the gravcst and most po-
tent consideration. When you appreciate the
fact that the intelligence. of the whitc popula-
tion is antagopircd TO you; that all Of your
acts will be looked upon with distrust; when
you remember that whatever you do will be
subjected to the scverest scrutiny at home and
abroad when you know that whatever errors
are committed here viii be reviewed with no
friendly cye-the duty is doubly incumbent
upon you OF framing constitution which
will challenge the criticism and commcndution
of the most intelligent portion OF the State.
Believing, as have said to you, that you
have assembled here with proper motives;
that the Constitution framed by you, will bo
the law under which the people Of South Car
olina will live for years to come, aud occupy.
Ing tho position Of Chief Executive of the
State, am here 10 give to the members of
your hoay tho benefit of whatever suggestions
may occur to my mind, provided that can
do so without seeming to iutrudc. My earn
est desire is that this Convention shall adopt
Constitution which shall meet with the cordi-
al support and approval of the white as we'll
