1t would appear from what Republican
3OuFnaIs have to say on the subject, that
there was a great mistake committed in
the creation of the White man. AGAssz

descended from the same common parent
age. ADAM and EVE, who are looked upOn
as the progenitors OF the White race, could
not be satisfied with the plenty, luxury
and ease with which they had been sur
rounded in the garden of Eden. But they

ure. At least since that time the
race has mot improved much; for we
arez,, told by Republican journals that
the Black race in this country is the
more thrifty and industrious race, and
even go so far as to say that in point of ed
ucation and intelligence the Blacks in Ohio
are, if anything, the superior of the mass,
ofthe Whites They dosay without hesi-
tation, that iu the South it is The Whites,
and not the Blacks who are suffering so
fearfully from 6estitution. This is said to
be owing to the circumstance that the
Blacks are given to Industrious habits,
while the Whites, from hitherto having
been dependent upon slave labor for sus-
teuance, are not now in condition to la
bor and to live independently. From this
showing of Republican Journalists and pol
iticians, it seems pretty clear, taken in
with their antecedents, that the
White race is a failures while the Black
race is a success, and, therefore, entitled to
be not only the ruling race in this country,
but throughoutDthe world. n aFa T. 7esiS
/ We know that scientific men take an al
together different view; but they belong
to the White race, and are prejudiced infa-
yor of that race; nor do they have as much
Intelligence and enlarged Judgment and
liberal feelings as have the Republican edi-
tors on this subject. Their great learning
has not afflicted them with madness, as it
was thought PAUL's learning had afflicted /
him; but it has opened their eyes to- facts
relating to the races, and these facts, as
they see them, tell them that they belong To-
The inferior race, and they have no hesita-
don telling their readers that this is so.
Democratic editors and politicians have not
yet advanced to this point. They cannot
their minds to the belief that the
White'is the inferior of the Black race
md twill require great many Constitu-l
;ional Amendments to make them believe it. |
