SF READING MATTER ON EVERY PAGE SEZ OUTSIDE FOR INTERESTING TALE- GRAPHIO AND OTHER MATTER. BECONSTRUCTION AND NEGRO SUFFRAGE Gov. Morton, of Indiana, in a late speech in that State takes position against negro suffrage in a line of powerful argument, based evident- ly upon a thoughtful, comprehensive and statesmanlike view of the whole subject. He points out that the Constitution of the United States has referred the question of suffrage to the séyeral States, and that if, as bas been proposed, we avoid the force of this constitutional provision by declaring the Southern States out of the Union, we involve ourselves in an endless train of evils, amongst which is the impossibility of dealing with the Tebel Government as traitors, they being placed in the attitude of rulers of a Govern- ment de facto. While believing thatin time all men will have the right to vote without dis- tinetion of color or race, he holds that in the case of four millions of slaves just freed from bondage there should be a period of pro- bation and preparation before they are brought to the exercise of political power. Ninety-nine out of ev ery hundred negroes in the South live on the plantations, and we can- | not judge of the condition of the great mass by those who live in the towns. Perhaps not one in five hundred—say one in a thousand—can read, and, pérhaps, not one in five hundred is worth five dollars in property of any kind. | ‘They baye no property, personal orreal. They have just come from bondage, and all they have is their own bodies. Their homes are on the plantations of their late masters, and they must depend for subsistence on the employment they receive from them. Can we conceive that a body of men, white or black, who have been in this condition, and their ancestors before them, afe qualified to be immediately lifted from their present state into the full exercise of political power, not only to govern themselves and their neighbors, but to take part in the government of the United States? Can they be regarded as intelligent or independent voters! The mere statement of the fact furnishes the answer to the question. Mr. Sumner's plan for dealing with the ques- tion is summed up by Gov. Morton in this con- ¢ise proposition, which it must be admitted is fairly stated, i.¢.: That all persons who have been concerned in this rebellion shall be exclu- ded from the right of suffrage and from all po- iitical power for an indefinite time, and that the negroes of the rebel States shall be enfran- chised and have full and equai political powers «conferred upon them. Gov. M. proceeds to show conclusively that the adoption of the Sumner policy of exclud- ing from the right of suffrage every man who has been concerned in the rebellion will, ex- cept, perhaps, in Tennessee and Louisiana, ex- clude twenty out of every twenty-one white men in the Southern States. If all the negroes are enfranchised in those States there will be At least twenty negro votes to one white vote, ‘and in the work of reconstructing the States of South Carolina, Alabama and Florida, even a lJarger proportion—perhaps thirty colored votes to one white vote. The inevitable result would be the election of colored State governments. The further result would be to shut off at once, and effectually, all emigration from the North- ern States, and from Europe, too, whenever that event shall happen. Thus they will remain permanently colored States in the South. The white men whoare now there would remove from them; they would not remain under such dominion. The end not unnaturally would be & war of races. The solution offered by Goy. M. for these difficulties may be summed up as follows.— give these men just emerged from slavery a period of probation and preparation: give them time to acquire a little Property and get @ little education, time to learn something about the simplest forms of business, and pre- pare themselves for the exercise of Political Power. At theend of ten, fifteen, or twenty years let them come into the enjoyment of their political rights. By that time these Southern States will have been so completely filled up by emigration from the North and from Europe that the negroes will be ina per- manent minority. Why! Because the negroes have no emigration—noihing but the natural increase, while we have emigration from all the world, and natural increase besides. Thus, Dy postponing the thing only until such time ‘as the negroes are qualified to enjoy political Fights, the dangers indicated would have fair- ly passed away. The suggestion is also made to so amend the comstitution as to proportion the political powers of the State, not by population, but According to the namber of voters, white or biack. The effect of that will be to drive these Southern men by degrees to enfranchise their negroes for the purpose of increasing their power in Congress. These negroes will not have political rights conferred upon them, and the North will never consent that the white men of the South shall exercise double political power by reason of their disfranchised negroes. ‘Phere must be equality of our political power. Heretofore, three-fifths of the negro population bave been represented in Congress. That clause “Was put into the constitution because of the existence of slavery. Now there is no reason, politica! or otherwise, why representation and political power should not be determined by the number of legal and actual yoters. The outspoken expression of opinion against foreed negro suffrage, made recently by men of such prominence and distinguished patriotism as Gov. Morton, of Indiana; Gen. Cox, Repub- lican candidate for Governor of Ohio, and Sen- Stor Doolittle, of Wisconsin, taken in connec- tion with the defeat of negro suffrage in Colo- rado and Connecticut, shows with sufficient certainty that the people of the country heartily sustain the wise policy enunciated by Presi- dent Johnson in regard to reconstruction and the question of the status of the negro. All the indications now are that the imprac- ticable theorists of the Massachusetts school will have mach less influence in the coming Congress than has been predicted, and that the question of negro suffrage and kindred ques- ons will be dealt with ina practical, states- manlike manner. #7 ¥rom Hudson Taylor. 334 Pennsylvania Avenue, agent for this District for Scott & Co.’s Feprints of foreign magazines, we have the North British Review, September number.
