BLACK MAN GONG TO CONGRESS
"A correspondent Of the Syracus,
Standard, writing from Rochester
says that Fred" Douglass, the negro
is to be brought out forC Congress in tbt
Monroe District, N. Y, and espresso.
the opinion that he will be elected
Well, why not? If there is no white
man good enough to represent the dis
trict. Fred. Douglass will do. His alb
olitlonism, at least, is sincere. He is
neither Hard, nor "Soft." He
is grave"woolly head; and, as such,
he may set up claims for public sup.
port on the ground Of sincerity and can
dor, which nobody would be supposed
to question.
Should the Black Douglass get votes
enough to 60 to Washington, however,
q curious question would arise as to bis
qualifications" for seat among the
pile faces in the capitol. As the
Federal Constitution stipulates that
lsec. 5, art. leach house shall be the
Judge efthe qualifications of its own
members" a nice point would arise the
moment the dusky face of the member
from Monroe was visible among the
assembled wisdom of the nation. -
Gentlemen from the other side Of Ma
son and Dixon, of course, would exer-
c'se their constitutional privilege to
'Judge, so as to exclude the colored
aspirant from seat among them
The White Douglass of illinois, and
sundry Northerners who think with
them, would do likewise, SO that a
pressure would be created, which must
eventually "crush out" the aspiring
Fred, aud send him back to his con-
stituents with the news that this is a
white mans government, as yet-not
a Hayti, a Dahomey, a Timbuctoo, nor
a Liberia even. Aside from all this,
however, we don't see how the Honor
able member from the Monroe District,
if admitted, could. with any sort Of
conscience or decency, swear to support
the Constitution itself-an instrument
which Initiating certain senatorial pre-
cedents) he rather prides himself upou
execrating, denouncing and repudia-
ting, under all circumstances, and on
all occasionally. Y. Express.
