The Negro and the Ballot.

LIE NEGRO anu the ballOI
| Private advices from Nashvill,
assure us that the present Tennes
see Legislature will, in all proba
bility, place the ballot in the hands
Of the negro. It win be done I'M
der the leadership of such men al
William Spence, the 'whilom hon
est q manager of the Exchange
Bank, and James Mullins, the
blatant word-monger-both tur.
pentiners. There is a great deal
of common sense in the idea that,
if unlettered negroes are entitled to
avote, so are our educated and intel
ligent sisters, wives, and daughters.
1t is our belief that good order
and good government depend up
on restricting the elective fran
chise to white men--permitting
all of that class to vote. IF this
restriction, however, is to be bro
ken away, and if the doctrine of
manhood suffrage" is to prevail,
we desire to see the suffrage uni
versal in reality, not in denomina-
ton merely. We do not consider
it advisable to place the ballot in
the hands of the ladies. Neither
do we conceive it judicious to put
it in the hands of the negro. But
if the Legislature decides other
wise, the ladies have a better right,
unquestionably, to voice in the
government, than the stolid col
ored man; for we do enlighten our
fair associates as they grow up, in
order to render them fit compan-
ions in our hours OF domestic ease,
while the great mass of the color
ed men Of this country are still
semi-barbarians in an intellectual
sense, and not one in five hundred
have the faintest conception of the
of popular government.
We are not disposed to see the
aides cleft out in the cold," while
he negro is being treated to such
political endearments. The cry
If disfranchisement applies with
ar more force to our fair country /,
Women than it does to the negro
portion of our population, because
he intelligence of the former pre-
,ents claim not to be disputed
he moment you break down the
standard of dictatorship, 1t is po-
itical hypocrisy of the piainest
Kind, therefore, to demand the bal
ot for the negro on the score of ,
humanity, and turn adeaf ear to ap- 1
oeals for fellow creatures in every ,
respect so much his superior We |
object to the ladies as well as the
at the ballot box; but if
he latter is to have it, give it to
he former. To give it to the ne
,ro alone would be strict iniquity. |
