are glad on own account We believe, as did our
great and good Gaston that African slavery curse to
any peope-that it destroys the energies OF the non
savehoding whites keeps them ignorance and retards
the development Of the resources of the country
and that the a people who have IT get
clear of 1t the better. The negro is free in North
Carolina and If had 1t in power TO ensave him
again would not do 1t. Whether his freedom will
better his condition not problem which he has got
TO work out; but that the white masses
to be elevated-thaa new field Of moral and intel
lectua culture, we'll material prosperity IL to be
opened up to them by the Inauguration OF free labor
that would not restore him to his former status II in
our power to do so. y At present we sure
that there Is not single in the State in favor OF
allowing him TO vote; and any attempt on the part OF
the general government to force 1t upon US would Sc
rously interfere with that fraternal sympathetic afec
tion necessary between the people of the different
States and sections to union of hearts well as
q union Of tates.
