There are a few who say-that to deny or in
any way cripple man in the full use and de-
voopemeni, for his own benefit first, of all his
facuiies-and especially to make laws and bay
onets to prevent him from dong its highly
improper and impoliiic; aud that, il any think
God consented TO or advised any such thing
they are very greatly mistaken. LLOYD Carl

the man who looked on when his wife and the

Whatever be his capacities. am sure the
negro has had no fair chance yet and am so
unfortunate as oflen 10 be on the side of the
minority. When one ofour big boys at school
kicked a small girl, there was an outery and an
uproar, for it was brutal and cowardly thing !;
yet, when all went at him, and scoiTed him. and
hissed him, and were disposed to annihilate and

from the total loss OF self-respect. So, the
way that some Christian men and all black
guards treat niggers, would be enough to make
negrophilisi of me, if there were not other
reasons. They allow them to do any amount
OF dirty work at very cheap rate but to 60
TO school, or 10 ride in cars or omnibuses, or
to sit at meat, or to vote that is presumption;
and in churches two pews, marked B. Nj. and
b. w, contain their souls, while, so far as
know, no black angel is allowed to fly about
loose.
This is eminenily the case in the free states,
more than in the slave states; while any dirty
drrnkafd is allowed free range in all places ex-
cepi, perhaps, Heaven.
Some of my friends live in Connecticut, and
| am sorry for them for they went there re-
membering something Of the Shermans, and
the WOlcotts. and the Winthrops, and the Hill
houses, and thinking to find schools and an en-
lightened community, and sense Of justice
and decency-but they discovered that on some
railroads niggers were forbidden; and last year
