Jefferson declared that tie Caucaslan and
African races In these United States would not /
happily live togsther. While he granted all
the natural rights Of the African, and deplored
the condition Of slavery IN which the white
1nan had placed him, he yet held that tho
laws Of climate aud temperament, had equally
marked tho dissimilar zones Of tho earth
wherein cacl, race would flourish the best :
The temperate zone for the white mnn; the
tropical xonc for the black and mixed race Of
color-thIs conclusion reached too In the
highest spirit Of rational justice aud states
manshir. ANY ono who will look over the his
tory Of this country since tts first organization,
and at the present tendency In the movements
Of events, will very clearly see the truthfulness
Of Jeflt1son's views. The Anglo.A1ican tends
to the tropics more and more every year,
while The pressure Of the white population
upon The Slavc States within the temperate
zone, is each year being more scnsibly felt.
Missouri succumbs rapidly to its influence
Delaware feels 1t scnsibly. Maryland, North
Carolina, Kentucky, virginia, Tennessee and
Arkansas, will have to submit to its progress,
and the Slave population be forced to the
tropics under the advancing pressure.
Look at the equatorial regions Of these con-
tinente, md what do We see? Nearly tia
whole Of It's vast territory is virtually In the
hands of colorcd race On the main land,
large settlements Of blacks mud mixed bloods
arc established. Ruatan, Honduras, Musqui-
to and Panama arc more or less controlled By
this mixed race Of African origin. So in New
Grcnadn, Guayana, and other States. The Is
lands Of the Caribbean Sea are almost entirely
in their hands The French aud Dutch Colo
MES have but few whites in their midst In
the British West-Indics, the white man sue
cumbs In the constant struggle between his
pride Of caste, and the advancing intelligence
uf the colorcd NAL Already exceptional men
among the latter hold prominent offices under
the crown. Social equality, which in these
cases is exceptional, will soon be instautial to
the mass. In Jamaica, where this struggle is
more clearly seen, there arc In round numbers
three hundred thousand blacks, seventy thou
