A Northern Republican Writer on
Negro Suffrage.

NNsAo
A Northern correspondent Of the
Chicago Republican writes a long letter
from Macon, Georgia, on "the state of
the negro question in the South He
says:
to interfere in this matter NEGRO suf-
fraCe) at all, l have no hesitation in
saving that the bestowal of suffrage up
on the negro at this time would result
in an unmitigated evil 10 Southern So
ciety and the country at large. The
assertion of General Schurz that IL
would result in a war of races is no eK-
aggeration, and would be a sufficient
reason for withholding it, even if the
negroes, as a class, could be depended
upon to vote intelligently and indepen-
IDENTIFY"
This accords with the opinion ex-
| pressed by the President, who said, in
a conversation with Mr.. Stesrns, that
negro suffrage at this time would have
the effect Of causing q war OF races in
the South. The writer continues
The ballot is q poor mans remedy
for ignorance, vice, and prejudice, even
in the hands of enlightened men; IN
the hands of the negroes it could
scarcely overwhelm three such dragons,
defended by double their numbers.
Under the present aspect of affairs, 1t
would be ANYTHING but kindness 20 give
II 10 them by national interference.
| Aside from the increased jealousy and
/ violence which would be engendered
on the part Of the whites, and a ne
/ cessity which would at once arse for
the increase of the national armed
| force 10 preserve order and repress out
| breaks, It is almost certain that a few
shrewd men with plenty of money,
could not control every negro vote,
even in the interest OF the Southern
policy. No ignorant farm negro, work
ing for ten dollars per month, would
fail 70 sell his vote for two dollars and
a whole days froic
The writer here again touches a
poipt on which the President, IN one
of his conversations, EXPIRE ssed nearly
the same opinion. They we're that the
negro voter would be more likely to be
Influenced by his employer IA by
strangers who were at q distance rom
him.
The Richmond Wing says of all this.
We have been inclined 10 think from
the first that in their attempt to force
negro suffrage upon she South, the
radical politicians Of the Sumner
school were setting = trap IN which
thew themselves would ultimately be
caught They would be in the posi-
ton Of the engineer "hoisted by his
own petArd
