Rev. Mr.. BEEcHER delivered q lecture
in Boston recently, in which he went
the whole figure on the suffrage ques-
ton. He held "that the franchise
should be extended to all classes alike;
to Africans, Cinnamon, and all foreign
ers, and to Indians when they become
citizens. In regard to female suffrage,
he thought if woman be a member Of
the human family she had . right to
vote. 1t would give a higher tone to
our election system, and also enlarge
the sphere of woman's thoughts. Give
woman more culture by participation in
public matters, and her mind would be
elevated far above its present level.
Without woman We never shall reach
the high stages of enlightenment" The
next step-assuming Mr.. Beeehers e1-
pertinent to preyail-would be the aban-
donment Of representative government
altogether as farce and failure.

THE BASIS OF SUFFRAGE.
The Sunday Mercury sees fit to say that

The Sunday Mercury sees TT to say that
"THE TRIBUNE is understood to be an advocate OF
universal suffrage and in favor of admitting the dafAe!
TO the polls on the same terms as the white man.
The Mercury has no right to speak oil our
views on this vital matter as understood
when they have been thousand times ex-
pressed as clearly as our mother tongue VIII
allow. THE TRIBUNE does, indeed, believe in
admitting Blacks to vote On equal terms with
Whites but it does not, and never did, believe
in universal suffrage, in the sense when
stuffs our City ballot-boxes with the
votes of thieves, burglars, and oil who
get their living as human beasts of prey. II
any one, White or Black, chooses to live as q
blackleg, as keeper of den of iniamy, or by any
means forbidden by the law of the land, we hoid
that he has no moral right to be voter. II any
one. Black or White, sees fit to crafty his appe-
tites or his avarice by setting snares Tor the ieet
of the weak and unwary, panderng to lewd de-
sires. and leading the thoughtless into the ruin
GUS ways of debauchery and sin, we insist that
lac has no moral right to be voter. In short,
we do not believe that polling our State prisons,
no matter how fairly, would be proper mode
of swelling the Democratic vote. Nor do
we hold, in view of the natural and permanent
alliance between stencil and Sham Democracy,
that the necessary influence of the former in
swelling Democratic majorties affords adequate
reason for keeping our City so foul, unsavory,
pestilential, as it long has been. Hence, you
see our falling out with ex-City Inspector
BOOle.
In our conception, Government is comblna-
ton of the industrious, the provident, the
thrifty, the well-behaved, the quiet-loying, for
mutual protection against robbery and outrage
at the hands of the indolent, the proiigate, the
wasteful, the rowdy, the dissolute In this
combination, the criminal and radically vicious
are not rightfully partners: seeing that its OBJ
jects are at war with the means whereby they
habitually seek their ends.
Now if there be any negro who chooses to
live by pandering to and aggravating others
vices who fanceS THE TRIBUNE anxious for has
reimbursement We beg him TO be undeceiyed.
We cherish no such anxiety, and never did.
We have too many blacklegs, law-breakers and
iail-birds, voting already. But we think every
man who is rational, tolerably intelligent,
habitually aw-abidinc, and who endeayors ia
be a useful member Of society, Ono matter how
humble his sphere ought TO be a legal voter,
and, by the blessing of God, We are resolved
that he shall be.

THE SOUTHERN UNIONIsTs.

II costs something nowadays. in most parts OF
the South, TO have been UDionist in the hey
day of Secession and Rebellion. Not negroes
alone, but whites also, who have openly stood
by the Union and its flag throughout, have to
keep very quiet if they wish to live.
We published, some time since, letter from
Mr.. Frederick W. Sumner, living in Grayson
County, Texas, who was shot in his own house
and his eye destroyed for no reason on earth
but that he had beer a Federal that is, an
answering Unionist, who fled North when he
could no longer live in Texas save as a Rebel.
We have since seen letter to a friend in which
he saws that he is still confined TO his house,
knowing that he is marked for death whenever
the Reconstructed Unionists of that region can
get q shot at his back.
The following letter is from an old subscri-
Der to The TRIBUNE, who, though a Slave
holder, refused to be Rebel. He lives in
Texas, but we dare not expose him TO murder
by printing either bis name or his place of resi-.
dence:
."I have Just read your favor Of the Goth ult.,
and by way Of reply must say in sorrow, that dare
not yet post even your showbilP in this town. The

endeavor to procure subscribers for THE

The Erening Post, few days ago-with its
well-known fondness for pulling notes out of its
neghbors eye, and its equally well-known inability
TO behold the beam that is in its own cye--took
The TRIBUNE TO account for printing the French
word "hauteur,' "haughteur." In its issue OF
Friday, it spells the pretty thoroughly naturaizcd
word " soJriquet," "soubriquet. Now, any one
could see as the editor Of The Post must have seen
that the error in TIE TRIBUNE was printers
mistake; az, indeed, was shown by an examination
Of the copy and the proof. But the error OF The
Post is one Of ignorance. II is a bunder made
every day, by i-informcd people; and The Post,
with that candor and urbanity for which 1t is so
distinguished, will thank us for instructing it in
tho right spelling Of word which, though useless,
is, nowadays, good deal employed.
