The Convent ton.
Let it be bomb in mind that the elec
tion For delegrttob to the State Ciniven-
tiou comes off on Wednondnyt the 4th
day of October.
The Convention is to uuncmble at Mil-
ledge vi lie on the fourth Wedne-day in
October.
The “Coi»grci»»laiiRl OatU. ,,
HpIow we copy in full wlint is called
“tin* Congressional ontli.” It is a “tight
paper,” In any view that may be taken
of it. And yet it seems to us essential
that we must send to Congress men who
can take it; otherwise they will he ex
cluded. * Have we any sueli men among
us—inon competent in other respects to
fill iho position ! It seems that they
must not only have never held or at
tempted to hold any position under the
Confederate (lovevuineiit, hut also uuy
position under the Government or Con
stitution of a State in rebellion; they
must neither have voluntarily horn e arms
against the United States, nor liavo as
sisted, counselled or countenanced a sol
dier in arms against the fSovoriimont of
the Union.
Sound policy, no less than a willing
obedience to tbu laws, requires that tho
Southern people should elect to Congress
men who can bike this oath, it they
have any such among them :

Wo clip Uio following paragrnjdi from
tho Ciuciouati Mntimml Union of tlio
‘J4tl» September. 'The hostility which it
reveals towards Soutln rn men, nt a time
when Northern men are freely coming

tained in biiabiess enterpriser! among mm,
is the offspring of implacable sectional
and party animosity alone, ltognrd for
Union soldlera cannot have dictated it,
bccauao the number of Southern men
employed in Northern houses must be.
very small—too small to justify tlu* ap
prehension that they will seriously in
terfere with tho employment of Federal
soldiers. Cannot the Unw)i comprehend
tho fact that it* Southern men are de
barred from employment at tho North,
Northom men will not bo employed at
the South, and thus the old animosity of
the sections wib be kept alive ! Caii.
we not have uu earnest and reciprocal
effort to bauish all such narrow preju
dices as unworthy of American citizens
and deleterious to tin* national harmony
which wo all profesh to desire !

TUKKH11 Kkhki.s.- A great many of uur
soldiers who loft their homo? for the do-
tense of their country nto justly com
plaining that while returned rebels readi
ly find situations a? dork.-* and salesmen
in both wholesale and retail houses, thoy
are permitted to wander from store to
store, vainly .-ticking for employment in
order to put bread into their owii mouth?
and the mouth? of their families. This it
truly u burning slmme. The soldier
should be ItrU eared for ere the returned
rebel who desalted ui and went over to
the enemy to help tight hi* battle? i? pros
vided lor. The rea-on partiality is thus
shown to these returned rebel soldiers is
that it is believed they can influence
Southern custom, bringing Southern
tradesmen to tho store* at which thoy arc
employed. The merchant? who employ
them should bo permitted to enjoy the
Southern trade exclusively, and bo
shunned by tho loyal resident* of the froe
States who conn* to the city to purchase
their supplies. It would bo well to pro
cure a list of these bouse? who employ
these Southern bloods, to circulate ex
tensively in the country towns and adja
cent cities, s<> tlmt those contemplating
» purchasing their goods hero may seek
the house** at which Union soldiers are

preancd with tho id on that lie inu«t
ouro for himsolf a character for fiiithful-
noss and hOnoHty, whether ilia wages he
much or little, there ought to he some
fixed rates. New experience has de
monstrated that it in impolitic for Bu
reau* to fix those rates, for in some com- |*bj\.
munition tho lands are Holier than in
>ther«, and farmers can afford higher
wages—some localities are healthier
than otliers, and are therefore more de
sirable to live in. Every community,
therefore, ought to be allowed to meet
and regulate its own rates of pay.
Said article further states, “Contracts
to ho made in duplicate, approved and
witnessed by the county agents of the
Bureau,” &e. Now, I ask, will suid
agents visit the residence of ouch far
mer, hr must every man in the county
who hires a freedrnan go and carry the
freed ink n with him to the agent’s office ?
If so, how often must he go before a
contract can bo witnessed and approved ■
Half dozen times or more, as was the
case with many this year ?
Tho article further states, “Parents
should ho advised they are responsible
for their oiiildrcn, and children for their
aged and decrepit parents.” I ask. who
is to givo this advice / Freedinen have
been taught that their former owners are
their greatest enemies. Will any gra
tuitous advice; therefore, he likely to ho
received in the spirit iu which it is giv
en ?
Tho article also states, “Aged and
infirm iVoodinon who have no means of
support, nor any relatives to whom they
can rightfully apply for the same, will he
provided for by the county authorities.”
Now what lolativos are they to whom
ono can rightfully apply for support—a
son or daughter? May he son or son-
in-law hnH as many children as limy can
feed without the additional hurden.--
Again, will tin* whites only he tusked to
support first tho poor Mack and then tie*
poor white, or will the blacks also lie
tuxed to support the poor of their own
color ? Said article appears to my mind
an effort to legislate for tlio benefit, of
the blacks, regardless of the interest of
tho whites.
Nothing is saiil about the negro’s for
feiting his wages if he does not adhere*
to his contract. Nothing is said about
protecting the fanner from the depreda
tions of vagrant negroes wandering
about doing niiseliiof. Within one
month my inont-houso, horse-lot. wlieat-
limiso and hen-roost lmvo all been roh-

that during my recent visit to Washing*

phons in substanco ns follows .
7\> H»s ExeeUeney, Atulrrw ,/oAnsou*
Ure.eideut of the United State* •
At tho time when Alexander 11. Ste
phens retired from the public sorvico oi
tho United States, a few yoars since, he
had boon longer a member of the House
of RepresonUtivos than any other person
holding a seat in that body. It is true
that there were some who did not entirely
agree with him iu sentiment, but no man

lion, »nd there wore nono who questioned - 1,0 ' inJ '‘.Ouiuietrutioti.
the nuro integrity of his motives, or who
dounlod the groat value ol hi? voice in the
councils of tho nation. Thus, for weary
years, did he givo to his country iho effec
tual labors of the prime nnd vigor of his
manhood. The physical condition of Mr.
Stephens is, at best, but frail. The labors
above referred lo unremittingly and pa-
triouuaily romlctod by him, made great
drafts upon tho powers both of his intel
lect and his body, so that il is believed to
be dangerous lor him to remain in a cli
mate to damp and so far North as Fort
Warren, lie needs at this time 1L0 quiet
repose which home alouu affords.
lour Excellency having long been in
stnliuicnt which wo know pmvadc* thu
country; but which lm.-. boon liitherto
nnexpn.-si 1 in deb rence to our novel
I national situation. - To avoid all grounds
I *>l self-reproach, let us speak out respect
fully t** the tM'Yi;nnm«i:t out frankly, and
| in a ri pt cuwl .- f .rit, as becomes men and
citi/’M— "i the l ni'.ed Stales, to the end

In t losing permit me to express the grat-
‘ ideation I exp. rienco as the result of my
| I’b-erv alien.- during ni.v recent visit North,
i There is maguat.iniity and a disposition to
•mont the reorganisation of the Union

There i- magnanimity among-t the peo
ple; and with the exception of a tew la-
natics who still urge extreme measures,
they ull udmire this gallantry of the
Southerners, and are willing to do us jus

not disappoint such confidence.
