SUFFRAGE AGAINST EXTINCTION. We have a word more to say to those reconatructed gentlemen who are prophesying ill of the freedmen. Mr. Sharkey ** expects™ the extinction of the blacks, +beyond a doubt”—not because they can be spared, not because they are thriftless (for ho says ** they are ambitious to acquire real estate”), not because they aro enfranchised, but bocauso they are simply free. We infer that as freedom, in the very nature of the fact, contains the standing menace of suffrage to thoze who are hostils to the blacks, tho blacks will fare badly as long as their condition is uncertain and un- protected. Are they to be killed off merely because they deserve to live—because they are not slaves, and dosire intelligence, suffrage, and real estate? Wretched indeed must be the fathers and mothers who send their children to school only to have them edu- catod for the extinguisher, and sweet to these well- Dohavod miserablos must ho the patriarchal benison— “Bless you, my children, be virtuous, and be slaugh- lfl'ed." Wo should guarantee to the freedmen respectability —such a life-insurance as, while making their lives less cheap, must enhance and perpetuate their labor; a consideration of economy which will not strike our Sonthorn friends if they bother themselves withput- ting their laborers ont of the way. If freedom dis- oounts a freedman’s lifo so much below a slave's (according to Sharkey), franchisement is suroly poeded to bring it above par. Slavery was always insocure; disfranchisement is similarly precarious. If it should be allowed to cost us tho lives of the blacks, what sort of friends are we to bavo in their red-banded oxtinguishers? But we heartily disagres with the false prophet Sharkey. Honest labor has its integral right to tho soil—a claim above the poor privilegs of being put to death, and far higher than that of the uscless savage, be he whife or copper-colored. Tho experience of mankind shows that industrial races are long-suffering and enduring. Hence,we cannot **expect” the extinc- tion of 4,000,000 of useful people ambitions to own real estate,” oxcept by & murderous indifforence, the parent to injustice and cruelty, without parallel. We, who have abolished Slavery, cannot afford to blot out fresdom with tho negro. If thero is a question here, let there be no delay in granting impartial suffrage. —_— Whathor any changes have bean made since Saturday we do not know, but the publication will put dealors on their guard in case of any specalation in any of the articles enumerated House bill to facilitate postal and railway com- munication among the States was called 1p in the Senate yesterday mada the special order for Fri day noxt. Isit too much to ask that Senators in fa- vor of this just and necessary measure will be in their seats on that day and press the bill to a vote? ————— Tl MEXIC The diplomatic correspondence concerning the with- drawal of the French treops from Mexico canot fail to bo read with profound interest. France, it will be soen, at length yields without obtaining whatshe has all the time insisted on as a condition of the evacua- tion of Mexico. No promise Las been Leld ou: to Ler that the Government of Maximilian will be ¢cknow- lodged. Only the assurance, oft before giver, i3 re- peated, that the chief principle of the policy of the United States is non-intervention, and that this prin- ciple will be adhered to in the future relations of the United States to Mexico. Tho correspondence containa some interesting dis- patches concerning the intended enlistment of Aus- trians for the army of Maximilian, Mr. Motley is informed that ho cannot make his protest agaizst any act of this kind on the part of the Austrian Govern- ment too emphatic. Ho is instructed to represent to Austria that such an act would be one of hostility to- ward the Mexican Republic, and that the United States in such a case could not engago to remain a neutral observer. WITHOUT NEWSPAPERS. A printers' strike lately reduced Richmond to that state of moral blessedness and social security which Mr. Henry A. Wise once complacently claimed for his own Congressional District. Fora little while there wore no newspapers in Richmond; and, strange to say, the deficiency does not seem to have been relished, even by the most low-spirited admirers of that by-gone age which both created and consoled Mr. Wise. Inthe absence of definite information, rumor hsd it all its own wild way. Canards flew as thickly as Homer's flies around a milking-pail; the rural districts were feverish with falsehoods for which nobody was responsible; tho city swarmed with petipatetic retailers of quite ideal intelligence, and he who could talk the loudest and the longest, and tell the toughest story, became the great man of the groggery and the revered prophet of the barbe shop. To a bewildered people, it was as if printing bad never been invented; and, whatever may have heretofore been the sublime indifference of Richmond to the oxistence of the nineteenth century, it was not a little embarrasaed by this sudden revival of middle- age wants and monkish expedients; justment of their difficulties enabled the n once more o appear, we may be sure that they brought a sense of relief and a palpable promotion of | the public serenity. And this little event reminds us | of what would be the cond n b d | ity and its environs if me ng i should come toa & the clatter of Mr. Hoe' eard in Printing-House cal geatlemon who the literary execution of newspapera (of the difficul- ties attending which they v aud can know noth- ing), but who go further, and insinuate solema doul of their moral influence—who regard them as at best | a necessary evil; but who, nevertholess,take them, for them and read thom, who are unhappy with the but would be still more unhappy without them. is only the man who pleases to divest himself of all social relations and responsibilities who woull wish | to remain in ignorance of events.

Davis contiuges to be tonsted ag n patriot, and the ministers of the Gospe! foster untriendliness to the Govermmout of the Unloa. It is io the powor of the Christian people and the ministera of the Gospel to maks a chauge in this public sentiment. Not merely by acceptiug the lssus of war, not by submission to the Inevitable only, but by rallying around the flag of our common country, sustaining, heart and hand, the Union of tho States as tho greatest clvil Llossiog, aud striving to perpetuato this Unioa to the and of time, We seo littlo of this apirit yot; but we watch for it more than they who watoh for the morniog. For its coming will bo the morning of the brightest day that roundabout achievements, 8o, too, if a man pleases to accept relations to a government, and to put himself, and his family, and his property, uuder its protection, he is as directly interested in the omis- sions and commissions of that government as in the outgoings and incomings of Lis household-servants or of his jowrneymen. He shogld be ashamed not to vote; but he should he still more ashamed to vote ignorantly or blindly, or as the mero tool of a sharper-eyed man than himself. Voting pre-supposes the making-up of one's mind; and that in turn pre-supposes a basis of facts for the decision. This it is tho business of the newspaper to furnish. But this is not all. Newspa- pers are naturally advocates, The statement and the defense of opinion necessarily follow the widest pos- session of facts and the largest survey of public affairs.
