which they would not be slow to take ,dT,S'

suppose that no provision should b ma.
for these children, but by the simple oD-,.,so''

ty-hve years Of age, they should, il female. 4.
obliged TO leave their children in the sam. -,
or even should they be born free, but r,,,inss

such separation Of parent and child. for tu.n'
ty years, as would result from either Of tb-..
plans, would be nearly, and in MANY case. aui,..
equivalent to separation for life, ana wouls
not be tolerated for moment by any friend az
the negro.
Another proposition is, that the children AZ
those born after certain date, shall lmms6i.
ately be free To this there are many ob,ectioD.
90 obvious that need not snumeraie them
Again il Is proposed, and this appear to m.
to be much better than either Of the above. tb.,
children follow the fortunes Of the mother h
coming free when she does, she being hired On,
for sufficient length Of time To paw the en-
Pense Of the transportation Of her chill or chill
dren with herself This appears 10 be mora
humane, and do not well see what objection
could be made to il, except, that with ons or
| two young children about her, a woman = in
such health, and her time Is so taken I'd viii
-
value, she is nearly worthless. And this b,tog.
me 10 tbs main proposition. which Is, ih,t n
any plan for emancipation and eOlOni .,tiop. |,
distinction should be made between 81 -
the male becoming free at the sg,, Of twenty.
i've, or whereabouts, and the fem .ales Al 6fs.p
