The Newark (N. J.) advertiser protests against
our denunciatiOn of the thirteen Republicans
in the New-Jersey Legislature who recently
voted against Impartial Suffrage 1t admits
that their vote was wrong yet adds

their principles. branded towards and tmeseryers
ON the contrary, we nothing wrong about them
cept that they slow coaches, and lag little in the
march OF progress But they are pretty sure ana VIII
come numbering in when they are really needed
Here is exactly our ground OF difference:
We think their votes on the right side were
"really needed nOw-more than they can ever
again be. If the Dixons, Winchesters, Bah
cocks, and Cleayelands of Connecticut had voted
for Impartial Suffrage in 1866, their going over
to the Coppcrheads in 1867 would have been OF
no consequence. But they first helped to deprive
the good cause of 1000 steadfast votes and
then turned against us just when, lacking those
votes we could not spare them. SO it Will be
in other States The AdrertiSer will bear witness
that we denounced the Connecticut twaddlers
in 1855 as heartily as we do their New-Jersey
imitators now.
Half Million Blacks have just been en-
franchised by the Reconstruction act. The
shrewdest and ablest politicians on earth are
hard at work to secure at least part OF their
Those politicians are educated, strong men; +;
they have social prestige and the habit
of command; and their chief weapon
is the alleged insincerity and selfish
ness of Republican championship of the
rights of the Blacks: "The Radicals enfran-

"cause they want your votes against us; but
"they keep you down in the North because

course this is false; but all such Republicans
as the thirteen "sl0w coaches do their very
worst to make it seem true. We can't af-
ford to be mealy -mouthed with these
fellows even if we were inclined
to. Whatever they may mean, they are
doinq their utmost to exclude the Republican
party from thirteen States, and thus ensure It's
speedy overthrow and dissolution. Men who
hold that none but Whites should vote may he
well enough in their place; but there is no
room for them in the Republican party Every
one who stays i'll it keeps at least ten voters
ont of it. Just look at this extract from our
last Norfolk Journal:

comparatively small number OF black men at the North.
