CARDS -. st.a

FLoRESuEr Ala, October II, 1857. +
To the Editor OF the Louisville Courier:
l was surprised to see in the Cincinnati
Enquirer a statement that a gentleman
who pr0fessed TO represent that the
South was willing to compromise on
'' universal suffrage.D Now 1 am salts
fed that nine white men out OF ten in
the South much prefer military govern
ment to negro suffrage; to prove this 1
state the following facts: In Lauderdale
county, Alabama, there are 1900 white
voters, and 800 black voters registered,
yet when the election for Convention
was held, only about 1000 votes
were polled, and some OF these
were against the Convention. No
white men voted except office-hold-
ers and Office seekers, and a few
white men who were frightened into be-
lieving that unless they voted for the
Convention, their property would be
confiscated. In LaudeTdale county there
are four hundred white men who were
Union men during the war--these men
were the most disgusted at negro slIf-
frage. -
This very day, if the truth was known
and every man bad nerve 10 speak his
true feelings, there are not five thousand
white men in the State Of Alabama who
are in favor Of negro suffrage on any
terms. -
know what say to be true, as I was
born and raised In the South, and knoy
her people, and cannot LET her be SLAM
dered If can help it. hope you win
put the Enquirer right on this subject.
