The Late President Liucoln's Views
on Negro SUFFRAGE Universal Sui.
frnKe Must DO Exactcd for Universal
Amnesty."
New York, Sept. 25.-The Southern
Advocate says the following extract, which
has Just been published, is from the late
President Lincoln's letter to Gen. Wads:
worth, who fell in the battle of the VIII
derness:
"You desire to know, in the event Of
your complete success in the Eeld, the
same being followed by loyal and cheer
full submission on the part of the South,
if universal amnesty should not be accom-
panied with universal suffrage. Now,
since you know my private views as to
what terms should be granted to the
| South in the contingency mentioned, I
will here add that, if our success should
thus be realized and followed by such de-
sired results, I cannot see, if universal
amnesty is granted, how, under the cir
cumstances, we can avoid exacting in re-
turn universal suffrage on the basis of in
telligence and military service. How to
better the condition of the colored race
has long been a study which has attracted
my serious and careful attention. I think
1 am clear and decided as to what course
I shall pursue in the premises. Regard
ing ourselves religiously as the nations
guardians of these people who have so he
roically indicated their manhood on the
battle field. and where, in assisting, the
slave public have demonstrated in blood

humane protection of the flag they have
