THE CIVIL RIGHTS BILL. Views of a Southern Republi- oan Thereon. Dangors to (he Common-School 8ys- tem of the South, $'he Bill Likely to Cause Ronowod Spcflonu.l Animosity. How the Bill Is Regarded by the South- ern Pross, %o the Kditor of the Chfeago Tyibune * 1t is sunounced by tolograph from Washington that tho Clvil Rights bill, so called, will probably become a 18w, unless, ke tho Inflation bill, it shall be arrestod by tho Prosident’s veto. There 4aro many good pooplo who doubtless regard this menguro na tho keyatono to tho arch of Froedom, without which tho stiucture will bo incompleto, aud liable to topplo down. I respect the proju- dices of such peoplo, and propose, briefly, to + offor o faw suggestions n rogard to itaresl na- turo, which may tend to change their viows, na ¥egards somo prominent foatures of it, st lonat. Undoubtodly the provision of the bill which roquires that all mon, without rogard to race, shall have equal privileges in all publio convoy- endcs, ovor publio highways, whethor by land or water, > 18 FOUNDED IX EQUITY, ¥or, in tho first place, the publis highways + wero mado through tho lands of the people, ‘without the consent of individuals, sometimes through thelr flolds, perhaps °egninst their wielos,. This right of way is fountled on, and #anctioned by, tho notion that tho gonoral wel- fare requires the Individual saerifice. Bo long, thoreforo, as tho railroad compauies maintsin tho exclusive mondpoly of ruuning their awn tratus, thoy must, and ought to, bo required to transport all passangors jwho ean pay their way. In liko mannor as post-routes, estublished, and, “to n certain oxtont, maintained, by tho Govorn~ ment, thoy should bo roquired to accommodate tho puablio, without distinction of race or color. It is oqually cloar that meliu schools, ondowed by tha Btato, or sustained by taxes, should afford oqual facilitics for education to all childron in the State, But it by no menns follows that each school should be open to any and nll the For on this ]:riuca;lo thoro could be uo fornmle achools; Bod childron within the school-district, oso nureorica of reflnod culturo wonld af ouco bo broken up by the intrusion of rudo bo; i:s. o Constitutions, State and National, they hayo no .

Congrosscan only into) pose of securing equal rights and opportunitios ©of cducation, It is not ern Btates have discriminated agalnst tho colored ruce in tho ymvlslon mude by them for publio education. The intorforenco of Congroas is, thoreforo, importiuent, inquisitorial, arid VIOLATIVE OF THE RESERVED CONSTITUSTONAL TIGHTS OF TIE BTATES, Tho Genoral Goyernment glves no aid to the ‘common-school systoms of the Southorn States,— cortaiuly nouo to the olderof thosoBtates, Thero 18, thorefore, no protoxt for Intorference, Thoir systoms linve boon adopted voluntarily, nud do- ond mainly on taxation. In several of them, Enbh’u-school systoms oxistod many years befora he War, for tho education of tho ‘white raco. Roaoutly theso systems hava been rovived, with tho addition of an equal provigion for the edu- ootion of the oolored racey but in soparato schools, But tho Bouthern poople aro not so woddod to the common-school syatem a8 to ad- horo to it at tho u{aunuu of nogial degradation. Jf tho Civil Rights bill becomen’ o Iaw, its effect will bo to break up the common schools for whites aud colored ‘in all tho Btates which havo a pre- . pondoranco of whites,—in all of thom, indocd, excopt Bouth Caroliua and Florids, and, it may bo, Lonisizns. The majority in Congress hnve beon made awaro of this conssquenco of tho mensaro; aud their porsistonce in it arguen either o spirit of reckless demugogism or stupid fanaticlsm. Y TILE MOST INMTATING FEATURE of the bill, howsver, ia_that which requires inn- koopers to entertaln all comers, without rogard torace. 'Thore is no shadow of oxcuso for this #yrannicnl interferonce with domestie affairs, Ioos aro ag strictly private property as tho reai- donces of the farmers, morchants, and othor citizons; and Governments, whethor National or Btate, have no more right to force an unwel- come guost on an innkecper then on any other citizen, Innkoopors onjoy no exclusive privi- Jego, in this country, no Governmont patronage ; thoy occupy no public ground; snd thoir sole distinction consiats in_ being tazed beyond what other citizens are subjected to. ~ What right, then, has Congresa or the Btate Legislaturo to compel them to recoivo into thelr houses a clasy of peoplo, whothor whito or colored, whom thoy fecl it wdegradation to mssociate with? None, Will the American peoplepermit the démagogues fu Congress to supplant porsonal liberty by an enforced equality ? Tho old English common-law obligation im- posed on iunkeepers, to entortain all comers Avho could pay their way, was founded in roason, That rcason was the fact that the innkeeper Liad n monopoly of hig business, Inthat much- Eovemud age when the law originated, inn- keepers woro protected by law against rivalry; and 80 long a8 the inn could accommodato the traveling publio, & man who should st up a rivat catablishment in the town or neighborhood be- cnme ligble to fine and jmprisonment. Honco the obligation imposed on the fortunate proprie- tor of the village-inn to entertain all travelors ‘wlo wore able to pay their fare. In tho courso ©f timo tho monopoly ceased, and the obligation with it. But, 1 spito of the legal moxim tha thio law cearct whon the reason for It oenses, this fmposition on innkeepers has continued in Zorco, The Roman or clvil law was MORR BATIONAL AND JUST, Tt allowed innkeopers to oxoroleo thelr discra- tion ua th thoir g celag and 1t Lold thom to a igid accountability for the goods of their guosts, because thoy had tho option of moolvh‘i‘g‘ into or oxcluding from their houses whom they ploassd, ‘The common law moat unroasonably forces unwelcome guests upon the innkeepor, wnd then is even more rigid than the Roman law 84 rogards rosponibility Tor thetravelor's goods.

At auy rato those rosults may follow its enact- mone, and if those who aro pushing it in Congress uro &0 blind a8 not to sce it, thoy have 1o business in the Council Ialla of the nation. T'o speak plainly and to tho point, if thoy foreses theso results and dofy them, they aro traitors to the peaco of tho uation; if thoy do not foresco them thoy aro either fanatics or fools, and thoy may tako thoir choico of the two appellations, From the Mobile (Ala) Reytater, Tho bill is . utterly sweeping in its character, 1t provides undor hoayy penalties that negroes shall bo admitted to the onjoyment of all priv~ ileges allowed white mon by institntions sup- ported in whole or part at the public oxpense or under public license, It includes ontrance to the dress-circle of thoatres, to the parlors and diniug-rooma of hotels, to the saloons of steam- bonts, and to the sleoping-cars, It provides that nogro children ahall be IIIIEM side by side with whito childron in the publio sohools. Tt breaks down tho publio schools of Mobilo, and turns upon the strests the children of both whites and blaoks, simply booause shoy do not 8it in tho same gohool-room or upon the samo bench, It is tho most infamous bill that ever disgracod a elvilized and enlightencd peoplo, It attocks honorable projudices whiols Elvn their birth in the instincts of Nature, and destroys groat charitablo institutions in order to obtain favor for tho hour with a certain number of votes, Whom the gods would dostroy, they firat make mad, Lrom the Savannah (Ga.)
