Negro Suffrage.

The question of Negro suffrage in this State
is exciting good deal of discussion. The
Democratic papers and takers. believing Ne
gro Suffrage TO be unpopular, are untiring IN
their assertions that il is a principle of the
Union Party and the leading idea of that or
gsnization. -l
The fact is, it il a principle Of no party
row. 1t viii be supported by many. We
think majority, of the Union party. and by
good many strong Democrats, and it will
be opposed BY the majority of the Democrat
ic party and by good many Republicans
The Union State Convention may adopt II as
aparty tenent and may not. ..--.-
We are not called to decide the question Of
negro suffrage at the South. That questions
is a very serious''0 and most Of the talk on
it IS yet. has been crude and unsatisfactory.
1t needs more time and knowledge to decide
that question. e4n- 81
But in this State there is no need of hesi-
fancy or doubt. The negrs bears all. the bur-
dehsof Government, and it is simple justice to
confer on him its privileges. Are they igno-
rant 2 We will show you white voters more

names stood on the enrolment list with yours,
and you made no objection. The cOmpan-
iOnship of the poll list is no closer than that.
Letus do justice. Give the oolored man his
right to vote. and then If you do not like it,
when his right Of suffrage is taken away, re-
lieTe him of all the burdens of Government,
except such as other aliens living here raust
bear.
