Our readers would know, without any credit being
given, that the following was taken from the New
York Tribune. After having labored for years to
bring all the disasters he could upon the coored po
pulaon Of the South free and slave the arch end of
abolitionism thus unblushingly remarks:
Attempts were made the past winter in the legisla-
lures OF almost all the savehoding States to acts
for the vexation and harassment of the free coored
inhabitants Of those States with the object OF driving
them OIL We had occasion, some time ago, 10 point
out the difficulty of getting such enactments passed.
Helpless and defenseless as the free colored people
are they yet found too convenient to be readily
! dispensed with This is equally true Of the best and
| the worst of them The useful virtues OF the one
class, and the convenient and accommodating vices
of the other give to both classes quite tenacious
hold upon the toeration if not upon the affections
the justice Of their white neighbors Accordingly all
these attempts at presenting legislation failed OF
| effect except only in Florida where an act was
passed deprying the free coored people of the power
to manage their own pecuniary affairs and forbdding
any person to buy of them, or sell to them, except
| with the written consent of white guardian to be
| appointed for them. s.s-.
The above starts out with a palpable falsehood.
We not aware Of any Southern legislatures having
sought to vex and harrass the free people Of color in
their respective States with the exception of Florida
ii the Legislature of that State is justly amen
able to such terms. We are not apprsed Of the

wealth. We agree with the Chronicle that I" it is
time for the public to elect men to office who both
know their duties and have the virtue to perform
them"
Now for the observations of the Chronicle
II the people will take pains to look over the Jour
nails OF the Senate and the House of Representatives
of the State they will find that often but bare quo
rum of either House is present at the daily sessions
The New Orleans election bill, sometimes called the
Army bill, passed the House when not two-thrds of
the members were present; yet this bill has given
rise to more acrimonious feeling, and really involves
more important considerations than any measure that
has been before the Legislature during the session.
So of other measures Of immense importance.
Could the people know and fully appreciate the
state of things at Baton Ronge they would apply the
corrective by Withholding their confidence hereafter
from men who so scandalously neglect their duties
or they would deserve the of having to submit
to unwsc or illconsidered legislation. 1t is time for
the public to elect men to office who both know their
duties and have the virtue to perform them.
