JOBXSTON General G. T. V. BEAUREGARD, Lt. Gen. JAMES LONGSTREET, Lt. Gen. WADE HAMPTON, Lt. Gen. DICK TAYLOR. Maj.Gen.WM. MAHONE, Maj. Gen. ETHEL BARKSDALE, Maj. Gen. CHALMERS. It is of men like these that the Con stitutionalist says: “ Their genius for solving vexed ques tions of State is not in.the highest condi tion of intellectual health or ingenuity.'' Because they presume to recommend to the people a prompt and hearty cooperation in reestablishing the politi cal position of the States upon the BASIS or THE LAWS OF CONGRtSS, they are thus taunted with imbecility. The Colored Vote. One important consideration with those who favored earnest and prompt action under the Military Bill, was to secure the harmonious coopera tion of the whites and blacks at the polls ; and we are convinced that results will demonstrate the folly of those who defeated such action by cries of syco phancy, and by otherwise impugning the mutives of those who were iu favor of accepting the situation. On this subject we find an article in the Rich mond Whig , which is so applicable to the corfdition of things in Georgia, that we adopt the greater portion of it, and urge it upon the attention of our read ers. Nearly all the newspapers we see, and all the individuals with whom we con verse, are of the same mind in regard to the polity of the harmonious cooper ation of the whites and blacks at the polls. All are agreed that if we would not give the field entirely up to the clamorous but cunning and hard work ing tactions presided over by mendicant adventurers, we will have to take steps to combine the white and colored vote. But while all talk in this strain, we hear of no practical mensnres to bring about this important result. When we look around us we see the leaders of the “ loyalists,” so-called, straining every nerve to conso'idate and carry the negro vote. To this end they are working day and night. It is their sole business, and they follow it up most diligently. Night after night they have meetings and musteriugs, hurranguesand sermous, singing and prayiug—all looking to political results. The superstitions of the colored people are -availed of, and religion and radicalism are jumbled to gether. What the mock philanthropists delight in calling the “ emotional na ture” of the negro, is played upon, and an enthusiasm resemblim? that of their peculiar religious experience is aroused. These mass meetings, committee meet ings, and meetings of the different so cieties, all have political significance. It begins to be whispered about, that, un der the inspiration of cunning white leaders, a secret political society or league has been formed, the object of which is to coerce the whole negro vole. This league is said to have mysteries and penalties—the one to allure, the other to frighten the colored people into joining it. There is reason to believe that many of the better class of colored people who desire to cooperate with the mass of white voters and to choose their candidates from among our most re spectable and cultivated citizens, are being coerced and dragooned into this secret league. Under these circumstances, is it not proper, if the respectable whites desire the cooperation of this new political element, that something should be doing to attract it ? In South Caroiiua and. in North Carolina measures have been taken to that end. Where arc our men of activity and iufluence ? Asleep) Let them rouse up and take the lead in this vital matter before it shall be too late.- Unpleasant as it is to engage in political conflicts, especially to Rlruggle for a vote uever before cast and not rated very high in respect of intelli gence and fitness, there are things that we .may find much more unpleasant. If, when the registration shall have been made and the election shall have taken place, we should find that in conse quence of our supineness, indifference, or false pride, a few despicable white meu have influenced the colored vote and procured .it to be cast agaimt our views and for.the views of ignorant and degraded white- trash—for a constitution full, of tyranny and proscription, and fee Senators, members of Congress, judges, county M*prea*nta*si», and other officials of the l*reat f onlef> in point of mind, m<nda and (aanners— when theaei things ocjWT, will t»> d them much more unpleasant than wonld hare been an honest eff rt to harmonise the white and black masses. If our speakers and leaders remain silent ahd keep" aloof from public affairs, the handful of white fectioniuts will find it easy work to mould tbs colored people to their views. With no one to correct and expose their misstate ments, they will fill the minds of the blacks with suspicion, distrust, and enmity toward the whites, and carrying the crowd, will be able to intimidat# the U-Uer class of colored men, and ultimately lead them off. It is time we were moving in this matter. The names of many promi neat citizens occur to us, upon whom we might call to begin this work. If they would serve a good cause, they will come out from their retirement and take steps to influence the colored sentiment. If we do nothing, the colored vote will be lost to us. It may be gained by prompt and ac tion. Let ns not lose it by Belay. * Undo Sam’s Harm. Having planted his foot securely near the equator, in the purchase of the pe ninsula of Samaua, Uncle Sam, through his sagacious agent, Mr. Seward, has been reaching out toward the north pole, and has actually added five hundred thousand square miles of icebergs, white bears, and skating parks to the national domain. When we consider that in all this vast territory there are only sixty thousand people, and that they export little or nothing, save a few thousand dollar’s worth of seal and otter skins, and a few fish ; that they are to be protected by the Government; that the interest on the purchase is nearly $500,000 a year in gold, and that there is no present or prospective necessity, political or commercial, for the acquisition, it may be gravely asked if the astute Secretary has not paid dear for his whistle. Still, there is no measuring the march of events, and destiny may slide down, even on this generation, a shower of wealth from the glaciers of that howling) waste. It is positively amazing to consider the vast extent of territory now em braced under the Government of the United Stutes. Iu addition to the eight hundred and twenty thousand six hun dred and eighty square miles which we had at the close of the Revolutionary war, we added more than as much again in the purchase of Louisiana, at a cost if we remember rightly, of fifteen million dollars. Then in the acquisi tion of Florida we gained sixty six thousand nine hundred square miles, and in the annexation of Texas three hundred and eighteen thousand more. In the Oregon treaty our area was again widened to tho extent Os three hundred and eight thousand and fifty two square miles, and the results of the Mexican war gave us over a half million more. The purchase of the Rnssian Possessions adds anoiher half million, and nearly doubles our Pacific coast line, which before was something over two thousand miles in extent. No matter how fast the children of Uncle Sam may multiply, he he is evidently determined to be able to “give them all a farm.” Charleston Board of Trade—Speech of Governor Orr. The first annual banquet of the Charleston Board of Trade was held in that city, on Tuesday evening, at the Charleston Hotel. It whs attended by Gov. Orr, Gen. Sickles, and other military apd civil officials, by the Mayor, and many distinguished citizens and merchants. The banquet was in the best style of Messrs. White & Mixer, and all the arrangements were in most admirable taste. The out-going Presi dent made the first speech, and was followed by Gov. Orr, who took occa sion to review the political situation. He referred to the measures recently enacted by Congress as humiliating, and in irany respects ungenerous and unjust ; but he saw no other course left to us but to yield. On this point, he said : Looking, therefore, to the interests of the great mass of the people of South Carolina, and believing that the threat ol confiscation will not be carried into effect if we accept the terms of this bill ; and believing that confiscation will follow if we do not ; knowing also that we shall be benefitted by its" ac ceptance, I say that, as my humble judgment, interest and wiseom dictate that we shall concur in the measure proposed by Congress. [Applause.j 1 would, therefore, say to every man in South Carolina, who has not been disfranchised, that as soon as the proper order has been issued, he should pro ceed to register his name, and prepare to go to the polls to vote for the best man that can be selected to form a constitution under which we and our posterity caii live. He referred to the new relations ex isting between the races, and to the identity of their interests. He depre cated the attempts being made to form a National Union Radical Party, which depends chiefly upon securing the negro vote for its success, and condemned also any alliance with the Democratic party by the whites of the South. We have many accounts to settle with that party before we can fall into its arms. Our policy is to stand aloof, for the present, from all parties, and when we get into Congress, cooperate with the party that will do us justice. He re ferred to the wrong done to the colored people in the excessive tax on Cotton and tobacco, to show the hollowness of the boast that the Republicans were the friends of the negro, and their old mas ters his enemies. He further illustrated the hollowness of this pretended friend ship, iu the fact that iu the States front which these emissaries come, who are trying to alienate the negroes from their «M masters, the block man can** vote. On this point wo quote his own words t Whoa Sn emissary comes here from the State of New York, Massachusetts, te Ohio, and Mrs to tho black man, we are yoor friends, we are going to Uke care of you ; vote with ns; these white people cannot Be trusted, I want our colored men to say to these emissaries, to the Maaaachnsetts man, that, in South Carolina, under this law, it matters not by whom it was passed, every colored man, twenty one years of age, is entitled to his ballot, ami that he would not be allowed to vote in Massachusetts, unless he could read and write. Say to the emissary from Ohio, who comes here to give you advice as to how you shall vote, go back to Ohio, and enlighten the' heathen there, before you come here, because no black man there is entitled to vote. Within the last three weeks, New Jersey, Ohio, and Michigan have resolved that the black man shall not vote under any circumstances whatever. We regret that the length of his speech prevents us from copyiug it in full. In response to a toast from the Presi dent of the Board; Gen. Sickles ad dressed the audience. A speech was made by Mayor Gaillard, who facetiously •aid that he endorsed wbat the Governor had said about the Democratic party, and regretted that he has been so long finding out its delinquincies. Many of the toasts were exquisite gems of sentiment, and the occasion af forded a cheering augury of the com mercial progress of our sister city. We will publish the speech of Gen. Sickles to morrow.
