To the Editor of the Columbia Phoenix: - The people of South Carolina were persua ded, six cr seven years ago, that their only hope of maintaining African slavery was in the destruction of the American Union and the formation of a Southern Confederacy. I did not think so, and raised my warning voice suffrage, by their intelligence and property, I am willing to concede the right to them. But I am not willing, in their present debased and degraded condition, to throw the political power of the State'into their hands. I know the result.will be disastrous, both to them and the white race. It will end in a bloody con test of extermination to one race or the other. In very few of the Northern States are the against this fatal delusion. I said to them negroes’allowad to vote, where they have only that slavery was safer in the Union than it a few, and they far superior to those in the could be in a separate Confederacy. I told j Southern States. It is raonrtious that the them that the extinction of the Union would be the death-knell of slavery.

The inevitable result of this delusion and criminal folly will be the establishment of the most atrocious government and horrible state of society that a civilized people were ever subjected to. Already the negro watch-cry in Virginia and elsewhere i« “land for the landless !’ : — “homes for the homeless !”—“political equal- ity tq ail men, regardless of caste or color!” What avail will 40,000 white votes have in South Carolina, with tl is watch-cry ringing at the polls? It is against nature to suppose that an ignorant and debased majority will not pursue their own interest, regardless of right, and cafry out their wicked purposes, whatever they may be. It is possible to re strain them at first, before they acquire concert of action. Hence the importance of defeating the call of a convention at the first election before this majority is organized and embold ened by agitation and evil counsels. It can not be controlled afterwards, but will make South Carolina a j and social pande monium. Is there an ins; mce iu the world’s history of a class of men, invested with polit- cal power, who did not unite to promote their own interests? Just as sure as general suffrage is given to the negro in South Carolina, he will feel his numerical strength, and sooner or later, under the vile lead of Black Republican emissaries, seize the political power of the State and ex ercise it to oppress and plunder the white race. There are thousands of unprincipled white men amongst us who will unite their destiny with the negro for the sake of spoils anu plun der. They will easily be persuaded, and per suade themselves, that the lands of t'ne State should be divided out equally among all her citizens. Every one should have a home—the poor treedman as well a$ his former rich mas ter. Having the power in their hands, with this belief, it is folly and stupidity to suppose they will not execute it. They must serve on juries and hold office, ride with you and your wives and daughters in the cars, eat with you at the hotel, ami sit with you iu the church. All this, and ten times more, you must endure from your black politic 3 ! masters. And <’ah ft b^e that the pride of Carolina has sunk so low and been => degraded as to vote for this voluntarily, for the purpose of getting back into that Union .which her citizens professed to hate and despise so cordially a few years since? Are they willing tc go thg polls and cast theii: vote for a convention, with this des tiny staring tjiem in the face, in order to save tjieir lands from confiscation ? No. They \\ ill be voting the ultimate confiscation of their lands and their political rights as surety as they are voting away their honor as men and Carolinians. There ape in the State only ten districts out of the thirty in which the white voters are in the majority, and they are the smallest—con sequently two-ttiirds and more of the conven tion may be negroes or Black Republicans.— The Legislature will be similarly composed.— Do the people of South Carolina really think of these consequences, or are they prepared to accept them ? Better a thousand times let Congress confiscate your lands than entail such a government and such degradation and mise ry on yourself and posterity. Do your duty, and leave the consequences to God.

B. F. Ferp.y. A Mischief-Maker and a Yile Tfaclncer- The Macon Telegraph of the 12tli says: There is a man in this city by the name of Eberhardt, purporting to be a Superintendent of Colored Schools under the auspices of the Freedman’s Bureau. He claims our hospitality, and, we believe, gentlemen sometimes take him by the hand. He also professes, we believe, to be a minister of Christ, though it seems lie does not consider it at all inconsistent with the charac ter to bear false witness against his neighbor, and to fabricate the most wicked and infamous just as soon and as often as he was williu falsehoods. By way of illustrating*liis true character wc will let him speak for himself.— From a letter addressed by him to the Pitts burg (Pa.) Chronicle, and dated “Macon, April 20th,” we quote. Speaking of the South as a sick patient, he says: “The patient has ceased his ravings against the negro : although his mind is still subject to much excitement when he hears the terrible word Radical. When that terrible word is uttered in his hearing, he has much to say about “despotism,” “tyranny,” “Jacobins,” “Puritans,” and the like; and, while thus wild and raving, has much to say about “dig nity” and “manhood,” “ honor,” etc., for getting for the nonce all those lovely attributes left bug when he was first taken with his malady—rebelfioii. lie has, however, almost entirely ceased openly to abuse those who, in years gone by, served him so faithfully as slaves. He knows very well that he did abuse them in a very un christian and barbarous manner while they were slaves ; and that, after they were freed, he did, in Georgia alone, in a year and a half, connive at the murder of five hundred of them : you are, under the military rule of your con- j believe that there is really no disgrace attached querors, and await their returning sense of! to attending negro meetings and making justice. 1 feel assured that nothing but mistaken appeal to base fear, and that bastard ly virtue, called prudence, could have wrought T.

Directions sent with each bar for making three gallons handsome soft soap from one pound of this Soan. Each bar is wrapped in speeches to negroes. He has suddenly come to the conclusion, and publicly declares it through the press, that the negro should be ring was an irregular, aud therefore, took no dip Ionia, llis education was limited, and on that account, it cannot be said of him that “all knowledge was his province.” Yfittiout ac quaintance with the dead languages, he was not in his writings or speeches, a classic. His English education, however, was good ; and manteau. he was a man of reading and general informa tion. Judge Dougherty was admitted to vi.o Bar early after his majority and settled in Athens. He married Miss Elizabeth Moore, a charming lady of that town, who presided over his house hold with grace and dignity until the day of his death. Removing to Vatkinsville, he resided there the greater part of his professional life. In the outset, he acquired business slowly yet surely. Gradually his reputation pervaded the circuit and his popularity and his income in creased until he was called to the Bench. He presided over the Western Circuit for several terms. The people of Clarke knew him from his boyhood and loved and honored him to the end. They elected him to the legislature _ to serve them. He verified the saying “a proph et is not without honor save in his own coun try.” Being an exception, he proved the rule. In that county he was indeed a prophet, and for many years, aided in guiding its citizens, by the wisdom of His counsels and the purity of his life. During one of the most brilliant periods of British history, that is, during the reigns of Elizabeth, James and the first Charles, the ad ministration of justice was most corrupt. An honest, independent Chancellor, or Judge of the Common 1’leas, or King’s Bench, was a rare spectacle. They were either venal or the tools of the court. The counsel for the Crown were the unprincipled agents of oppression.— This was undoubtedly owing, in pa-t, to the fact that these offices were held at the will of the Crown, and the Crown could and did fre quently, control the administration of the law. Nothing was more common than for the King to issue his prohibitory mandates, both to his Chancellors and to the twelve Judges. Then, the Chancellorship was in truth, as now, nomi nally, a political office ; owing however, no less to the luwqpopular estimate of judicial functions. The people were accustomed to see the realm go.Vcrp.ed mo^e by court favorites and caprici ous kings than by laws. So It was. Now mark a contrast. The now humiliated Key Stone of the Southern Arch has never had a corrupt Judge, Dougherty was or.eofhei judges. His char acter shone with a steady light. It gave but no darting flashes, but emitted that uniform quality is the balance wheel of the mind, with out which its machinery, however polished and strong its parts, work’s badly. He was pa tient, courteous, and invited and appreciated argument. His “summing up” was plain and discriminating—so clear that juries were never without rules to guide their deliberations. He was no doubting Judge, as it is said Lord Eiilou was, leaving questions open, and thus protrac- t ng litigation ; but came to a decision prompt ly and announced it emphatically. His mind vv.is churaeterAed, ut the same time, by cau tion, rather than quickness. He Was tolerant of tile mistakes ot inexperienced counsel, re lieving embarrassment by kindly suggestions. He brought also to the aid of his administra tion ot tiie law, habits of the most exemplary morality. The practice of the Law has severe trials for young men : such as eager aspirations and hope deferred : apprehensiveness of mistakes in business ; dread of professional criticism ; hard work ; a sense uf responsibility, and very often an empty purse. But there are some things compensatory , such as the dashing ri les to the Courts aud the incidents by the wayside, the genial eprit th. corps of the fraternity ; the intellectual struggles of the court room ; the frolic and fun of the nights at the hotel ; the return, and wife’s sweet welcome home. Such tilings were in the oiden time. Progress—to ed ice!—has brought changes. When Dough erty Came to the bar, lawyers rode the cir cuit on horseback, with saddle-bags and port- Then came the reign of sulkies.— These soon gave place to buggies, and now railroads ami hired hacks have pretty much superseded everything else. No wonder that lawyers are a merry set. Not one of his con temporaries profited more by the compensatory things of his practice than Judge D. His per son was tall and large, but not encumbered with flesh, combining strength with activity.— His face was benignant, his manners affable and cordial, out not demonstrative, and mark ed at times with a quiet dignity, a self-respect ing repose. He was an exceedingly temperate man, temperate in his appetites and temperate in his mental exercises, ho well balanced were all his faculties that each was, not the tyrant, but the aid of all the rest. Few meu had the elements of intellectual and moral manhood so happily proportioned. His personal qualities made him troops of friends, and-^iis ability as a lawyer constrained the respect of the ablest members of the profession—such men as Upson, Tlios. W. Cobb,-Payne, Underwood, and D. C. Campbell, all of whom were leading practition ers at the Clarke county bar when he was ad mitted. Cicero Holt, the brother in-law of Judge D., entered upon the practice in Clarke county contemporaneously with him. llis career promised to be illustrious. His wing was strong enough to have borne him into the empyrean, but just as be began to soar lie was struck and fell into the grave. At a later day, at that bar we find Howell Cobb, Mitchell, Iliilyer and the late gallant and peculiarly endowed T. R. R. Cobb. To the memory of this latter gentleman it will be a melancholy pleasure hereafter to devote one of these passing testimonials. Judge Dougherty was careful in the prepar ation of his cases, sparing neitl»*r time nor la bor. He reiied upon an open issue upon merits and not upon management. He had neither the disposition nor tiie talent l’or, to use the language of a popular lawyer of his day, “win ning a ease. ’ llis speaking was not disting uished for fluency or impassioned appeals, or sarcasm or v> it, but for manly reasoning and perspicuous handling of facts. His imposing figure,.benignant face, candor, real power of argumentation made him a dangerous antago nist bclore a jury, aqd not less formidable be fore the Court. tSuch is a taint picture in outline of a peer of our professional realm—a nohletiian by nature, as well by patent from the judgment of his contemporarscs. He died in the prime of the allotted three score years and ten, before time Court for the State of Georgia.
