WHY COPRERHEADs OPPOSE Me-
GRO SUFFRAGE.

colored men tue ballot and there vii he7cxt
ter exist two great parties in the South, Q
not very Unequal strength, Just we have then
in the North but the Union party there, a
| here, would be In the ascendant. One pa1t,
would be composed Of thrce elements: d1st
radical Southern white Unlonists; second
radical Southern colorcd Enionfsts; third
radical Northern Enionists who migrate te
the South-the whole constituting the Re
publican Union party Of the South, as ths
correlativc Of the Republican Union party ol
the North. .
The other party In the South would consist
Of, first, the great mass Of the late elaye held
els, who were active rebels second the bulk
ofthe "poor while trash" who also were
Il bclr, and are controlled By the arlstocracy
In consequence Of their dense and hopeless
ignorance; third Northern Copprrhe.ds liy-
rg IN the South, who symp2thized with the
1ebels, voted against raising any more men
OF money to prosecute the war, and declared
that the rebellion could never be put down
BY force Of a'ms; fourth, q small sprinklng
Of blacks OF the baser eort-pampered house
servants and the like, but, all told, numbering
tnly lev thtu=and in the entire South
the whole constituting the rebel-copperhead
parry ct the South, and acting in concert and
unity will the Copp=iheads Of the North.
F,om this survey 1t is obv.ous why Nor,h.
e'n Ceppt1teads are opposed to comforting
the franchise on tic colorcd men OF the
South. They perceive very clearly how that
Glass would cast their votes. If they could
be assured that the blacks would support
the Southern Coppethead ticket their hos
tiity to colo1ed suffrage would instantly
undergo a modification. Many of them
would clamor rs loudly for At universal suf.
ftage" ss they nov do against It. The oppo-
s:t:on Ct The coppefheads therefore is not
to nffro voting In the abstract, but 10 ne
g1t tes sot.ng for The Republican ticket Tie
poor white traEh'' in The Sou!h ocpose
colotcd futIisee on different grounds, They
have asen taught BY the crafty slaveholders
to believe that their own rights ard position
In flc scale Of society would be impcsilled or
snbverted By letting tie negroes up, and
that their assumed superiority to the blacks
depended On keeping them down. Therefore
they are hostile to the blacks being allowed
TO better their condition, by acquiring wealth
OF knowledge or political prlvilesee. They
are too lazy, shltt1ess and degraded to move
forward Themselves On the read OF I'm.
plortment, and they can't bear to SEQ the
uesp'5eu plaehs passing ns them. Hence
"eu p'I.e1 It hstance 10 any measure or
pohcy Which tends to giving the colored
people :air chance, to rise from their pros
t1atlon and join cEeu the rear Of the column
