We know it may bo doubted whether even the
measure we propose may not be itself an object of
attack. The fiat that the races shall be equal,
may imply that no strictcr laws shall be imposed
than were suited to the higher race and there arc
some, we doubt not, so bent on mischief that the
ruin of the race of blacks and whites would be
taken sooner than the contradiction of their thco-
ry. But we have the charity to believe that in
that feeling tho majority of the North does not
concur, and that, slavery abandoned, they will
not antagonize tho measures necessary to preserve
tho negro race.
But whatever be the feeling this proposition
may inspire, it presents the only solution we can
sec to the problem of our further fortunes. Dis
eliminating penal laws will make us still the VIC
TINS of aggression; but penal laws, severe enough
to keep the negro in his place and compensate the
discipline that slavery gave him, indispcnsa-
bic. We see no other way to save him from the
ruin into which he rushes, and to which he drags
the few remaining interests OF our State.

THE HAYTIAN WAR STEAMER GEFFRARD.-The
Haytian wGr steamer Geffrard, whose arrival off
the Battery has already been reported has been
visited by number of our citizens. The vessel
was built at Bordeaux about six years ago, and is
used for special government service by the Hay
tian republic. She is schooner-riggod side
wheel steamer Of one hundred and fifty tons bur-
then, and measures ono hundred and twenty feet
IN length, thirteen feet breadth Of beam and six
teen feet depth of hold. The engines and ma
chinery We're built at Greenwich, England, by
Penn Son. The average rate of speed of tho
Getfrard on the voyage from Port au Prince was
eight miles an hour, but it is believed that after
repairs have been made she will attain Il much
higher rate Of speed. She is armed with two four
FOUNDERS Of smooth boro, and carries o crew Of
fifty -four men, including the officers. The vessel
sits about eight feet out of water, and draws nine
feet and half; her stern is round, after the
American clipper fashion; the bow is sharp, sur
mounted by fine piece OF gilded scroll-work; the
lines arc graceful. The vessel is painted white,
but presents rather dingy appearance, owing to
her late voyage and the climate from which she
comes.
The Haytian naval uniform consists Of On invis-
bic blue drcss coat, pantaloons of blue cloth or
white duck, heavy bullion epaulets, and cooked
hat decorated with red and blue cockade boar
ing representation in gold of the arms of tho re-
public, viz: palm tree surmounted by liberty
cap, with standards above two crossed cannon.
The Geffrard's visit to this port is for the pur-
pose of having her bottom overhauled and new
copper laid on. It was found almost impossible
to have this work done in Hayti, owing to the
meagre shipbuilding facilities Of the island.

THE NAVAL RAcE.-The long talked of naval
quin and Winoosh, will soon take place. The oh
ject of the race is to develop mechanical princi-
pie between engines of Government construction
and those of civil contract. For long time there
has been considerable rivalry between two eminent
engineers of this country, viz Mr.. IsherwoOd
Chief Engineer Of the United States Navy, and
Mr.. Dickerson. This rivalry has induced much
controversy t., the nature and character of ma
rinc steam engines for the United States Navy
For months the controversy assumed the shape of
al extended newspaper controversy, in which the
public were enlightened to q considerable amount
of mechanical technical terms, the whole affair
ending as it begun, without dispensing with any
of the points in controversy. The present case
however, has been decided upon to determine the
relative merits of the two systems of engineering
and it seems to be the determination of the naval
authorities i'll this city to afford tho public the
largest amount of instruction and amusement in
Witnessing the affair.
The course arranged is around Long Island
The vessels are to sail three times around the Is
land. The first day they are to be limited as to
pressure of steam and the consumption of coal
after which they to coal and steam to the full
est extent and capacity Of each steamer, yet not
to exceed the maximum pressure Of steam usually
carried on board United States vessels.
The two vessels are now moored together Mt the
foot Of Delancey-streot. Admiral Gregory UNITED
States Navy has the charge and direction of tho
whole affair, and has thus far exhibited the utmost
impartiaty in the preparation of tho vcssels

NEGRoEs IN VIRaIN1A.-The freedmen of yir-

s9rt that land will have to be given them, on
Which to make support for their families, and
tns expected domain is looked for about the first
OF January next. Whether this hope is general
or or not, can not be said, but one thing is Rnown,
tnat they refuse to engage work to bo performed
after TINT time. Many persons now in this city
came here to employ laborcrs for their farms, but
the blacks will not live away from the city, and no
not saved neither is the fodder, but the negroes
persistently refuse to work for good wages. The
officers OF the Richmond and Petersburg Railroad
keep standing advertisement In the papers for
"colored laborers," and give all work who apply.
but yet fail to keep fifty hands on whom thoy car,
