Hon .William A.. Graham and .His
..y r :' -..'i-H v-. Letter." ; ' , .V; :
Under date of October 10th, ?. the above
named gentleman was kind enough to .give
to, the people of North Carolina his opinion,
in regard to ; the propriety of- holding; a
Constitutional Convention. It is not to be
denied that Mr. Graham is the brains of
the f Conservatives", in this State ;,and if
there is any man who carries the State in
his breeches pocket he is the man, and
therefore his influence is not to be denied.
When he speaks, he speaks by authority,
and his voice, unfortunately in our j opinion,
i3 heard: in all corners of the State. ; We
once voted for .William A. Graham for
Vice President of the United ., States . and
knowing somewhat of his character, we are"
not disposed to speak of..-, him' indecorously.
-Nor do we intend to review his letter at
this time, but simply wish;, now to call at
tension .to a certain - portion .which seems
like an atttempt to pervert facts. We refer
to the following paragraph : , : , 1
The elective franchise is not necessary "to
the protection of any rights or immunities
of the.freedmen before I the 'law. By -the
present Constitution, and the Bill of Rights
which has stood untouched since ..1776,' the
free colored man is note, ' and : alwavt has
teen, entitled to all the guarrantees as to
life, liberty, security and pf operty, which are
vouchsafed to the white men, as much so as
women, minors and adults of the white race,
i who have not paid public taxes; v The ques
tion before us therefore is not one of protec-

above,
speaks of the bill of rights, but he cannot
help knowing that j the statutes. ,of North
Carolina deprived free persons of color of
the rights of other men, and that therefore
his statement, or at the least the inference
which he desired to be drawn from it, to
..the effect that free persons of color in North
Carolina enjoyed the same rights as other
. people, is not correct. We' quote from the
Revised Code of North Carolina of 1855. "
Here is one .section. (54), on page 575, as
follows: ; .
, 54. It Bhall not be lawful for any free negro to
: migrate into this State ; and if one shall do so, he
shall be deemed cmiltv of a misdemeanor dnrin?
all the time ol his stay, and may be indicted from
time to time, until he removes out of the State ;
and on every conviction Bhall be fined five hnn-
; dred dollars, for the payment of which he maybe
; ever, that such free negro shall not be indicted
wiimn imny aays aiter ine payment or tne fine,
or the expirationbf the term of service, adjudged
and suffered on a previous conviction. , .
' Also, the following section (59), page
59. If any iree person ofucolor shall preach or
,-: exhort in public, or in any j "manner ofQciate as a
preacher jor teacher in any prayer-meeting, or
other association fori worship, where slaves of
different families are collected together, he shall
be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor ; and on
conviction, shall, for each offence, receive not
i exceeding tnirty-nine laanes on nis bare oack.' ;
Also, tne ioiiowing section (64), page
, 64. If a free negro shall entertain any slave in
his house; during -Sunday, or in the night be
tween sunset and sunrise, he shall forfeit and pay
two dollars for every offence, for the use of the
county ln which the onence shall be committed.
Also, the following section (66), of, same
page!. '-
66. j If any free negro shall wear or carry abput
his person? or keep in his J houses any shot-gun,
. musket, rifle, pistol, sword, dagger, or bowie
knife, unless he shall ; have obtained a license
therefor from the -court of pleas and quarter-
sessions of his county, within one year next
preceoing tne time oi tna wearing, Keeping; or
carrying inereoi, ne snau .. oe : guilty ota-misde-,
meanor.
Also, : the following section (75) palges
578and57J):
r - 75. When a free negro shall be convicted of
any onence against ; tne criminal laws Of
the
State, and sentenced to pay a fine.-and it Shall
appear to the satisfaction of the court, that he is
unable to pay the fine imposed,' ( which shall in
all cases bo equal to the costs,) the court jshall
direct the sheriff to hire out such . free nesrro
publicly at the courthouse door, during the term
of court, to any person who will pay the fine, or
the greatest part thereof, for the services off the
free negro for the shortest space of time; not
exceeding five years 5 and tao hirer shall have all
such power and authority, over, an the feame
rights to control the services of, such free ntegro,
as masters have over free negrpapprenticesj. ;i ;ti
j Also, - the following section fll),' page
.307 ? v "-vrir..-a -,.V
11. Free negroes rworking in any of said
swamps, shall procure "from the clerks of the
proper counties, a similar description of them-,
selves, certified as above directed, and keep it
readv at all times when so engaged to be exhi
bited. And if any -free person of ' color shall
wilfully -work in' any of said swamps ;without
such copy, he shall be deemed guilty of a misde
meanor; and, on conviction, may be punished at
the discretion of the court, by finet whipping;
and imprisonment, or any of them. , : :""flL l
Also, the following : section (33), page ,
" i S3. No county court ahall tax any free pers6n
of color for the. support' and maintenance of
common schools : and no person descended from

The Bill of Rights of this State, as quoted

was a free election. . ?Who could vote for
Lincoln save at fearful personal risks ?
Who dared to take the stump for Fbemont ?
Where did ever freedom come out into the

a majority will wej infer, continue as hireto
