To the Editor of the National Era:
never heard Senator Butler of South Caro-
lima speak, but, from remark or two Of his,
which have just read in his Nebraska speech,
| guess he is a very fast speaker. He asks:
"Who ever heard Of the African astronomer,
statesman, general, poet?"
In reply, ask Who has not heard of Ben
jamin Bannaker, the Maryland negro, who,
towards the close Of the last century, with q
very Indifferent education, no instruction, and
no guide but the works of Ferguson, raised
himself to an elevated position among the as
tronomers Of his day. For long time he
made all the calculations for the Baltimore
and other Maryland Almanacs.
Who has net read with admiration the deeds
Of Hannibal, the African? OF Touissaint and
Christophe, the negroes whose statesmanship
as we'll as their almost unrivalled skill and
valor in the field, has been the admiration Of
oil unprejudioed personsl What South Caro-
inian has not heard Of Gabriel, the negro,
whose memory under other circumstances
would doubtless have been celebrated rs that
Of hero and statesman, instead OF bearing the
stigma Of an insurrectionist and malefactor
Who has not heard Of Terence, the African
and slave, whose name will be cherished while
Roman poetry and literature shall find ad-
mirers
Asa living illustration, | would point TO Rob-
erts, Of Liberia, whose statesmanship would do
credit to any white man in America or in Eu-
rope.
The Judge has not asked for On ccclesiastic,
or would direct his attention to Cyprian, the
African, who fourished about the second cen.
tury, and was one Of the most eloquent, as well
as learned and pious, Fathers Of the Christian
Church.
Il seems, however, that Judge Butler has
never heard of these; or, If he has, he believes
the testimony of all the world respecting them
is false, bscause they ,Oere africans.
Again he says:
oWhy, sir, Miriam even regarded il az a
reproach TO her brother Moses that he married
an Ethiopian"
Yee, Miriam did reproaoh her brother thus
but how did the Lord Jshopah regard CHS re-
. proach? Why sir, he struck her scifh the kp-
rosu that she became "white as snow," and
was only relieved from this terrible Judgment
at the earnest intercession Of him she had de-
rided, nor even then without q marked chas-
tisement. (See the 10Th chapter Of Numbers
Thus we see that prejudice can make even
Senator disingsnuous.
Before concluding, allow me TO express my
regret that no one has proposed proviso TO
the Nebraska bill, that al persons born on the
territory Of the United States shall be frss-born.
Yours, 60, X.
