For tlfo present, and perhaps for years to come, tho negroes will live in the South, and not .only Jive on our lands, hut must bo sustained by tho employ- mont given thorn by tho whites. Now, what is their duty.and manlfost Inter est', tills holng-i tho case ?

But we would not question tlio voracity of Mr. D. in this matter. Ho asserts that no such resolution was even introduc ed, and wo must, by reason of his min isterial office, believo his statolnent.— But whilst we are thus charitable, it docs teem passing strange-to, us that' .a letter, containing tho very same ob noxious and unchristian sentiments ns the resolution undor consideration, though much moffc elaborate nkd wiclt; ed, was published in tho Knoxville (Tenn.), Free Press SQino ttmo.

In that lettor a ''Northern open hostility to us—who, whilo tllqy 'll [shop, Simpson wo boliove, was de- speech, in which ho counselled moder ation ami harmony, accepted the posi- tion of honor conferred. A resolution urging a universal am nesty, without uny exceptions, was unanimously adopted *, also, one en dorsing President Johnson’s course, nnd applauding Cbaso on the impeach ment. On tlio Tth tho Convention proceed ed to ballot for a candidate for tho Presidency, which resulted as follows : First ballot, Pendleton 105, tho South erners nearly all voting for Johnson— 2d, Pendleton, 09; Packer, 26; John son, 52; others scattering. Tho following is a telegraphic sy nopsis of tho platform which was adop ted by tlio Convention, on Tuesday, amid immense cheering.

The control of tmllVugc belongs exclusively to each State, and Ooiigrew has usurped it in violation of tlio Constitution, Tho reconstruction nets un* constitutional nnd void. Thanks President .John son, and luvltes all parties 16 unite on this plat- are feeding upon our kindness, are op erating with a party who are socking to rob us of- every vestigo of liberty and to convort this government into a military despotism. It is Just as muoli the duty of tho negro to promoto the Interests of his employer as it Is tho New England la borer to look after that of his employ er; ahd tho white man, being tho-more intelligent olass, mast be tho solo judges as to whether they aro acting in a way to defend nnd promoto tho in- tcrcsts of tho community in which they live. And should they rafiieo, in their utter ignorance of all govern mental affairs, after our united interest is clearly set before them, to net with us in till matters of a political nature, nnd persist in following after those, who liavo.and will continuo to mako them false, promises, then it is our im perative duty to throw them upon their own resources—in short, to refuse them all employment. -Wo may fool tho inoonvoniencp of such a proceed ing for the tlmo boiug, bat it cannot . last long; for thq-flrst effect will be to crush out the negroes, and whan wp are oneo rid of this obstreperous olo- mont thore will bo a tido of immigra tion that will-soon supply all OUr do- tnand^'for labor.
