Dreasier on Negro Suffrage.

Our friend Solomon Of Susquehazuz
asks Us ,o comment on bis letter and w
viii do so briefly. BY no law humane o'
divine DO civil rights depend on color
al our citizens do or ought to stand or
tIle same footing before the law. Moth
ing but crime aud character should dis
qualify OF distinguish A red OF black
0. yellow skiu is no crime.
II the right Of suffrage is to depend on
Intelligence, one half Of the democracy
would be disfrauchiscd with The negroes.
Il IL not fact tia; whites are more inteili-
ssa: withcu. education thar negroes, 9TH
er things being equal. Tbs history OF
shis war proves tina. even 1neducated ne
zross have had a better conception Of
their duties as citizens than the democrats,
snd hence are better qualified TO exercise
the elective franchise than rebels or cop
rerhsads Ii there is any virtue in hav-
ing sense enough to be loyal, over having
e.upidity enough to be traitor, the ne
groes of the South are better than its
white traitors. In this state it has not
been an issue, but in the rebel States it
viii yet come to this: The rebel states
can not be reconstructed on loyal basis
By eefrancsising anrepcntam traitors ard
aiJranchising leyal men. Negro suffrage
10 the south will yet become necessity
as well as a right. As BY rebellion they
made Emancipation military necessity
20 By :her persistence they will render
negro suffrage d political necessity 10y
atty rust rule. 1t will be no remunera-
tiou to the colored people for their loyal
,y or their services tina. they are declared
free if they are to be kept under such
lave As their cruel ard unrelcating eaem-
les may enact Their condition will be
worse than slavery if they are left to the
mercy of their embittered would-be mas
ters. Neither Solomon, IN his wisdom,
Who acknowledges that he was black and
yet comley, nor Solomon, al Susquehsuna,
who can not "afford' TO grant the African
anything more than "liberty," would be
content TO live under red.hot and blood
red rebels without any civil protection
but what those rebels would grant.
Colonization lis played out. 1t is i'm
practicable even if the negroes were viii
ing. 1t is really astonishing TO see what
an amount OF miseonception and negro
hate adheres to even professed Republi-
cans! What an immense amount o! ig-
norauce, prejudice aud groundless ennaity
must yet be rem owed before Christ viii
reign King Of Nations IS he now is King
o. Saints.

Are the Orphans Properly Cared Fort

As we we're accompanying lot Of the
Soldiers Orphans westward the other
week, we got in conversation with q lady
Istcr We left Lewistown station, who ~as
anxious to know who and what the chill
dren were uuder our care, ard was much
surprised to hear that they were the pu-
pills of the Soldiers Orphans School at
McAlistersville, as she said that lady ~
from Miilin county had taken down her
children and brought back such bad re.
ports, that the children were dirty, ragged
and not half attended TO, that she brough,
back her children hothc again and hcf
stories had thrown a damper" on the
whole project ofSoldiers' Orpaan Schools
throughout Miffiin county. And she was
astouished after hearing her stories to
see 10: Of pretty, tidy, happy, bright.
eyed boys and girls, and said he could
hardly realize it, but that if the citizens
Of Miff1in county could only see these
children i, would charge their minds,
and more remarks to the same effect.
We merely al!ude to this matter to
show the mischief one person Of ill;judg-
ment can dc. 4 woman did once come
to McAlistersville and xanted a nice
room, separate bed, wash stand, bowl and
pitcher, &c. for her daughters and thea
left because her nice little ladies' could
not je titus ACCOMMODATED. She ;hodght
it would be "hoggish" to let her children
cat and sleep as others did. and above all
the prospects OF her children having to
wash dishes was awful beyoHd federation.
She left and passed through this town,
abusing the school at round rate. We
do moi. know who or wha. she is, NOT do we
care. but We hope the people Of Miflin
county will not deprive their destitute
Soldiers Orphans Of the blessings of
these schools because of the rawlings Of
one naughty woman, who, if she is able to
keep her children better than the State
ought never to have represented them as
destitute. II lie very gratifying that the
school did net collapse when the woman
and her pretty, weety, TINY" girls went
home-and the sun still shines on Nc
Alistersville.

4 1--we REBEL IN TowN.-It may
and ought to astonish our readers when
we tell them that we have genuine live
rebel in our towu-not rebe! syrnpathi-
Ter, for they have been here all the time,
but QUE, who boasts that he was in the
rebel army and helped to lick the Yam
KEGS on severa! occasions, and that he was
not a couscript bu, volunteer, and that
although glad that the war is over is sor-
ry that it ended as Ii did, fo- be had al
ways believed and hoped that JEFF Davis
would be victorious. We have not seer
the little impertiueut rebel, but the above
is the substance Of what he is reported to
have said to several persons in town. He
was born in Milford township and his
mother is said to be living in this town.
He went to Virginia some years ago with
his brother, aud has now returned to get
the money due from his fathers estate.
After doing all he could to murder our
citizen soldiers he has the impudence to
insult Cur loyal people whose brothers,
sons, aud fathers he helped to murder,
by intrudins his blood-staiued Carcass be.
fore their eyes aud boasting cf hi. love
Of treason aud labors in treasou's cause -
Why such things are permitted We can
not tell, for certainly It is m ore than any
community oush. to put up with. Those
who have heard him talk would have been
justified in slappiug his chops A coat Of
tar and feathers or ride on sharp rail
Gu, Of town, might increase his respect
Tor our loyal people and returned soldiers.
We have men here just returned from
the army, whose brave comrades, who
went out with them, will nerer return, fer
they have fallen victims to hellish re-
belion, and these soldiers ought not be
insulted by the presence of rebel SOL
der Let him leave this town as soon as
he car pack his traps aud depart. If be
does not, and persists in his talk it will
get hotter here than in tho South. One
word more and ~e are done-there are q
number of men in town who are whining
about the poor boy, saying it would be
shame to disturb him, &C.. who by their
consummate copperhsad sympathy have
shown that they are not whit better
than this rebel and traitCr-for their
hands which they offer our citizens in
friendship are alike red with the blood Of
our brothers .9
