NEGRO SUFFRAGE IN NORTH
CAROLINA.

The question of Negro Suffrage is now being
extensively discussed by the press Of North
Carolina. The Salisbury Banner says OH this
subject:
THE question OF Negro Suffrage Is troublesome
not forced upon all the States entertain doubt
1t will certainly Come and We had as well begin to
adapt ourselves TO circumstances and future events
over which we have control. We think it.would be
the hight Of folly to adopt such measure now. The
negro should first be qualified he shoald be required to
read and write and own real estate certain
Of other properv and 1t is the interest Of the Southern
people 10 establish these requisites Thy enactment and
labor to perfect them. The negroes are free They
will more than probably remain among US. Then we
say, it behooyes the Southern people TO inaugurate
measures 10 elevate their condition
A recent number of The Raleigh Sentinel,
edited by the former editor of the Southern
Methodist paper of North Carolina, contains a
long aud ably-written communication in favor
of negro suffrage The editor declares his de-
cided opposition to these views, but says that
the reasons for the discussion of the subject are
very strong. 1t says:
First il is matter ~ deep public concern 10 the
South, aud cannot be blnked If we were 80 disposed
The excessive circulation of Northern and radical
ABOLITION papers in the South forbid s being kent
discuss it would be used with damage TO the South
both in and out of Congress. Thirdly the question
had better be ooolly considered and met promptly be-
fore it is forced upon u.s."
The Raleigh Progress, the well.known Union
paper Of that city, expresses its agreement with
the views of The Salisbury Banner, which. il
thinks, Twill have no disputant on Southern
territory 30 soon as prejudice, excitement,
hatred and malice have been really alayed."
The same paper in an article on the communi-
cation to Tile Raleigh Sentinel above referred to.
says:
4" II is ~ impossible to prevent the agitation of the
suffrage question now as II was that of emancipation
10 years ago and that agitation ended in emancps
ton. it may be well inferred that suffrage in some
shape or form Is only question of time and yet with
the lights before u.s. we could not support the PROPOSE
ton. In our opinion. il the blacks would first by in
dustry energy and solf'improyement show themselves
capable OF the proper exercise of political privileges
the whites among whom they live would not be nm.
generous or uni ust; but for the present, who is
not afraid or ashamed to declare himself their friend
we advise them to lot well enough alone"

SAN DOMINGO.

Later reports from this Republic state that
the recent revolution has been entirely success
full, and that the late President Pimental has
submitted to "Protector" Cabral. Peace be.
gins to reign throughout the Republic, and
many wealthy families, who during the recent
troubles had sought refuge in the Island of
Curacao, had returned. Representatives for a
new legislature were chosen on the 1st of Sep
tember, and they were to assemble in the CAPT.
tai on the oath of the present month.
The Spanish residents of San Domingo have
signed manifesto in which they bear testi-
mony to the kind and peaceful behavior shown
by the authorities of San Domingo toward
everybody.
The Provisional Government of the Republic
has abolished the punishment of death, and also
that of Punishment for political causes.

GEN. SLOCUM.

William II. Slocum was Wing, until, in
$3.50, the Wing party was formally merged in
the Republican; when he went with it, and was
soon after chosen to the Legislature by the Re.
pubcans, acting with them fully and heartily.
As Republican, he supported the election and
reelection of Gov. Morgan and the election of
President Lincoln. As q Republican, he went
into the War at an early day, and has continued
in the service till now; and none Of his old poll.
teal friends are aware Of any change in his
sympathies or his faith. We know that they
have been considering the propriety of present
ing his name for position on the Union State
Ticket. 1t was doubtless in reply to one of
these that he wrote so late as the 9th ult,
from Vicksburg, Miss, where he is now in com.
mand, the letter to Syracuse friend, from
