HALL'S RENEWER, Chevelier's Lifo of ' e Hair, Hint's Ambrosia, at Feb27 FISHER A HEINITSH'S. I Democratic State Convention. ? This body re-assembled at 12 I o'clock, yesterday, Hon. A. Burt in I tho chair. Tho proceedings were opened with prayer by Kee. Mr. i Young. The journal of the previous j days' proceedings was read and con? firmed: On motion of Gen. Preston, the Presidents and members of Democra? tic Clubs present, were requested to . toko seats on the floor of the house, j On motion, the reporters for tho press, wore invited to seats. Col. J. P. Thomas, Chairman of tho Committee of Ten, read the ro port of the Committee on Business, which, after some discussion, was adopted: Whereas, in tho opinion of this Convention, the interests both of our State and our common country im? peratively demand tho union of all good, wise and conservative men, under tho banner of tho National Democratic party-a party faithful to the principles of the Federal Con? stitution, ns maintained by the fa? thers of the Republic; bo it, there? fore, Resolved, That the Democratic party of South Carolina do unite with tho National Democratic party of the country, and hold themselves ready, under the Constitution and laws, to co-operate with that organi? zation in all principles, and in all measures, that may be regarded con? ducive to thc interests of the whole country and of all classes of the peo? ple. Resolved, That the people of this State, including all men prepared to act with tho party, bo earnestly in? vited to form Democratic clubs in every section of the State. Resolved, That the people of this State be urgently recommended to go to the polls and vote against tho Constitution of tho radical faction lately promulgated in Charleston, and "to vote for good and truo men for all offices within their gift. At the same time in voting for officers under this Constitution, wo would put on record our protest against its validity. Resolved, That nuder the action of tho State of South Carolina, hereto? fore taken, we recognize the colored population of the State ns an integral element of tho body politic; and, as such, in person and property, enti? tled to a full and equal protection under the State Constitution and laws. And that as citizens of South Carolina, wo declare our willingness, when we havo the power, to grant them, under proper qualifications as to property aud intelligence, the right of su tirage. Resolved, Thiit n committee of five be appointed by the Chairman to nomiuate a State Central Executive Committee, consisting of seven mem? bers; a majority of whom shall bo residents at Columbia. Resolved, That tho Chairman ap? point a Committteo of Five to nomi? nate to this Convention suitable per? sons-two delegates ?it large and one from each Congressional District-to represent the Democratic party of thia State in the National D?mocratie Convention, to be held in the city of New York, on tho 4th of July next; and that the State Central Executive Committee be authorized to **,M snob vacancies as may occur. Resolved, further, That tho State Central Executive Committee issue, through tho press, such documents HS be deemed conducive to the purposes proposed by this Convention. Before considering this report, it was suggested that tho various papers submitted to the Committee be rend to the Convention. Whereupon Gov. Perry, Col. Blauding and Col. Tho? mas read those papers; and. on mo? tion, they were referred to the Exe? cutive Committee, to be revised and published at the earliest day practi? cable. These able documents, it is believed, will be in print early next week. The report of tho Committee ci: Business was read bj- sections. An animated and interesting debato en? sued. Mr. Aiken objected to the third section, as indefinite and really inconsistent. He was unwilling to vote for officers under an unconstitu? tional provision. The section ho declared impracticable and invalid. Colonel Thom us replied. It -waa deemed important to insert this sec? tion, in order to bring out the strength of the white vote in tho State. But suggested, that in thus voting, wo enter our protest against tho entire proceeding. Col. Aik'in accepted the sugges? tion, and the following amendment was added: "But, at the same time, we enter our solemn protest against its validity." Col. Aiken objected, that the fifth resolution did not go far enough. Lot the colored man know what ho had to expect; give him something tan? gible. Add to tho resolution, that in duo time he shall have partial suf? frage. Gen. Chesnut stated that this sec? tion caused some debate in tho Com? mittee Boom. He thought the gen? tleman from Abbeville was right. We should say that the colored man bo made to understand that hereafter ho shall have qualified suffrage. Ho also thought that, in military par? lance, it would be necessary to accept tho "African auxiliary." Hon. B. F. Perry said he believed it was absolutely necessary to the peace and order of society that this class of poople who had been elevat? ed, should be permitted to vote. It was important to encourago them, and, being encouraged, they would educate themselves and seek to ac? quire intelligence and property. In Connecticut, two years ago, when this question was snbmitted to the people, the negroes themselves went forward and voted against universal suffrage, on the ground that until their colored brethren had acquired intelligence and property, they were not entitled to exercise the right. The sanio argument addresses itself to a large class of colored people now. Qualified suffrage was the safe? ty valve of society in South Carolina, because it would make good citizens of intelligent men; whereas, if not entitled to the privilege, they might be disturbers of the peace. Besides, the privilege would be exercised by so few that they could not exercise a controlling influence in elections. He had entertained these views for many years, and when he went to Washington, President Johnson con? curred with him, and said that if all tho Southern States would adopt qualified suffrage it would disarm and defeat tho radicals of the North. The President likewise wrote to the Governor of Mississippi and urged him to employ his influence in secur? ing qualified suffrage in that Stato. lt was tho right principle-right, because it is tho prize which the colored man has won, and it can do no harm to society. It was, there? fore, proper, in going before the peo? ple of the State, to lot tho negroes know distinctly we aro willing to concede this partial right of suffrage to those who can handle tho tool without damaging themselves. Say this tn the black man and thousands of votes would be secured in tho coming election, besides doing great good in the preservation of the pence and quiet of society. Co!. Thomas H11*" hearty con? currence to the opinions expressed by these gentlemen. He fuvored this idea ever since the emancipation of thc slaves. He agreed with General Hampton when ho advocated this measure a year ago, and he agreed with bim now. The speaker had been a slaveholder; but he hoped ho was a humane and merciful one. Men talk flippantly of the approaching "war of racos," but should it come, the speaker would do his part. Let us accomplish a penceful solution of this question-tho solution compati? ble with the dignity of the white race. The question arises, what shall we do with the 4,0(HUHH> colored pei pie iii our midst? In England, Germany and France, difficulties
