BETTER THAN WHITE TROOPS

BETTER THAN WHITE TROOPS
A grave Senator, a few days ago.
was discussing the comparative mer-
its of white and black soldiers, while
the army bill was pending. He con-
cluded, that as to fighting, the two
races were about equal-"the negro
troops fought nobly"-but as re-
CARDS the morale of the army, the
negroes were incomparabIy ahead of
their less reliable white comrades"
Senator Wade, of Ohio, said:
"Experience had shown that col
ored troops made good soldiers, and
that they never deserted in the late
war. Colored troops fought just as
well as white, and both feught well,
Since the close of the war the white
troops had deserted in large num-
bers, bat the colored troops had
stood faithfully by their posts"
Thus negro troops are in all re-
spects as good as white ones, and in
some things they are better. They
fight equally as well, but when it
comes to regard for the flag and hon
or Of the service, they are immeas-
urably the superiors of the whites.
The "white troops deserted in large
numbers" while the "colored troops
had faithfully stood at their posts"
Hence we judge that colored troops,
in the estimation of Ben. Wade, are
the exclusive patriots.
We do not recOllect to have seen a
baser slander on the white soldiers
uttered by any person. The reason
for this is obvious. The soldiers are
opposed to the pet scheme of making
negroes their equals, which Wade
and his coadjutOrs are engaged in
putting through" They believe
in, and will vote for, the principle
that a white soldier or a white man
is as good as a negro anywhere.
This is why these revolutionists just
now are engaged in lauding the ne.
groes at the expense of the honor
and good name of those brave men
who fought and bled for their coun-
try. Soldiers with a white skin will
be likely TO remehpr those who thus
detame them-they will remember
Ben. Wade and his party.

ACTIVE OLD MEN.-Lord Brough-
am has always been famous for his
intense activity and for his capacity
for the endurance of lOng-cOntinued
labor. He has just arrived in Paris,
from Cannes; on his way to England,
in excellent health, and capable of
bodily eXertiOn quite extraordinary
at his advanced age. For instance,
he left Cannes in the afternoon, trav-
eled all night and the next day, ar
rived in Paris in the evening, then,
after rapid toilet, went to a soiree
to meet some of his French scientific
friends, not retiring to rest until
nearly midnight. Lord Denman,
who was associated with Brougham
in the celebrated defence of Queen
Caroline, wife OF George ", was
once complimented on his incessant
labor. "Pooh pooh !" said he, do
not talk to me about that l never
was able to get along without at least
four hours sleep in the twenty four.
But THERE is my brother Brougham,
he has no such trouble, but goes
from one thing to another all day
and all night, aad never seems to
care for sleep at all"
