ResoLved, That the people of the States
lately in rebellion, and now s~ubjugated, re-
quire q season of probation TO fit them 10
participate in the government of the coun-
try; that neither the spirit manifested BY
that people, nor the circumstances by
which they are surrounded, warrant their
being entrusted, st present. with any of
the powers of the government
RESOLVED, That before those States shall
again be admitted to equality in the Union,
tho right of suffrage should be extended to
the colored population. They are entitled
to that privilege as men and it should be
given them as q reward for their loyalty in
the past, and as q guaranty for the loyalty
of those States in the future.
Resogued, That an attempt to compel the
people Of color to congregste in particular
localities under the penalty of disfran-
chisement, would be manifestly unjust, and
but q renewal of the old scheme of coloni-
cation, which has long been exploded and,
therefore, while we recognize the ability
and patriotism of our candidate for Gov.
ernor, and u obligation to give him our
undivided support, we emphsiically dissent
from the views expressed in his recent
Oberlin letter.
ResoEvea, That we are in favor of 50
amending our Constitution snd laws that
no distinction shall be made on account of
color by our legislation.
Resolved, That it is expected By this
Convention that whoever shall receive its
nomination will support no man for United
States Senator who is not unyieldingly OPP
posed to any policy of reconstruction which
does not recognize as essential the prinei-
Piles embodied in the foregoing resolu-
tons. -
