THE REASON WW.-The Demo
Gratis are opposed to dlsrranchising
persons who deserted from the Ar,
my or Navy during the late war for
the Union The reason why, is,
that this fleet footed class Of their
fellow citizens are Of their party
and will, if permitted to vote, vote
the Buttcnut ticket. Do you think
these pretended Democrats would
not be for DISTINGUISHING descrters
if they were in the habit Of voting
the Union tickctY Most assurclly
they would. Circumstances have n
wonderfully different effect in diff
erent cases. That's what's the mat,

The question of amending oul
State Constitution so as to extend
the right of franchise to persons OF
African descent, is now fairly be
fore the people; the people have il
10 decide for themselves. 1t is,
perhaps, the nearest to a purely
democratic mode of Legislation
that can be had. If the sovereign
people Of this State think it is jus
tice to the colorcd man, dctracts
nothing from the rights, the digni-
ty, and the moral stamina Of the
white race, they have the right and
power, through that democratic me-
dium of which we Americans boast
so much, the BALLOT BOX, to
legislate and grant to the colorcd
male population Of this State, the
right to vote at our elections. If,
on the other hand, they are oppos-
ed to extending this right, tits their
privilege to say so by casting their
votes against the change Of our
State Constitution.
The power to change our Consti-
tuition, is not delegated to others,
but is rightly guaranteed to the pco-
pie themselves; the Legislature has
nothing further to do with the qucs-
ton of changing the Constitution
they had nothing to do with it
further than to provide for the ta-
king of the sense Of the people on
the question, and their decision at
the polls on the second Tuesday in
October mex. will be the law Of the
State.
The resolution in the Lcgisla-
ture submitting the question Of
to the people, was
adopted by strictly party vote
The Democratic confidence in the
people to do right was put to Sc
we're test, after all their loud pro
fcssions of mbomdcd confidence
in the sovereign people, and their !
assertions that the people will do 5
right, gave the lie to their proirs- !
sions of confidence in the cpcoplc by
voting against trusting them to de +
eide on the suffrage question. The t
Union men having full confidence t
in the people, and acknowledging t
heir right to determine this qucs- ,
ion for themselves, voted for the /
resolution That is the difference &
between the two parties; the Union t
men in the Legislature were willing |
% trust the people, and the party =,
to DO Democratic, were y
IfrNid to trust them. II
