A TIRGINT1 FREEDMAN on THE ELEC-
TON


A freedman of Richmond, Va, writes us that
none can regret more than the members OF his
race that they were compelled by their sense
of duty, in the recent election, to vote in solid
phalanx against the whites. But as it seemed
to the blacks that the question on which they
were voting was whether they should ever
have the chance to vote again, 1t was absolutely
imnossibe that they should vote away their
own right to vote. He predicts that as soon
as the question of their right to vote is set
| tied. which will be done by the vote ratifying
the Constitution to be adopted by the Conven-
ton, the black vote Of Virginia will be as di-
versiied as the white ON all questions of State
and National policy. The blacks not only be-
leve but ardently pray that after the Consti-
tuition is formed, securing their rights, the
blacks may never again be obliged to vote as
party together or against the whites. AS to
the candidates, he writes lin better spelling
than two-thirds of our Common Council or
Board of Supervisors would be competent to
MANUFACTURED ms follows: "The men who led
81 the ticket of what was called the COnserva-
" tive party were well known in Richmond, by
"both black and whte-and known as gentle
men of the highest order-and they had and
still have the respect and high appreciation
" of the colored men, as well as of the white /;
but they unfortunately happened to be upon
" the wrong track. Hence the coored men
had TO lore them and leaue them. They looked
like a fine team to q fine coach, but going to
"the wrong hotel. Hence we could not take
"our seats in it. While the men who led
what is known as the Radical party in Rich
| "a tIoty a
" in some respects, was (were) known to ap-
4" prove of the reconstruction acts, and hence
b" they must be supported. They may have
appeared to some as very poor team to an
" old shaclley COACH and travelling in mud and
"mire; but they were going the right way.
Hence we took seats in the old concern, and
nut our shoulders to the wheel, and pushed
" the old thing along till we all reached our
" destination. And the passengers all went
home without saying u word to anybody.
"They did not send up one single shout of joy,
as some people would have done had they had
"the same success. But we thought it was
" best to make no demonstration, as 1t might
hurt some ones feelings. And this is all
{" that has been done by tho cOlored men OF
Richmond
| The only plan by which confscaCion in Vir-
gina could commend itself to our conscience,
would be one by which the land of the late
masters might be distributed so as to give from
an acre TO an acre and half or two acres to
each freedman, while the sense and discretion
of the freedmen should in some way, as COM
pensation therefor, be cOnfscated, divided up
and distributed around, 40 as to furnish from
AN ounce to an ounce and half or two ounces
of brains to each Conservative"

The politicians who have taken charge of the
interests of Gen. Grant in our City did nothing
to elect the Republican State Ticket this Fall,
and openly exulted over its defeat. Now, they
are doing their best to defeat our Mayor and
reflect the regular Tammany incumbent, whom
most of them supported for Governor last year.
Perhaps this is the way to promote Gen.
Grants election, but we do MT see it, Do they
expeet to nominate him in Tammany Hallg

known that of all the European Governments,
only that of Spain shows itself absolutely in
favor of defending the Temporal Power as it
now exists. There is no change in the I'M

Dear Fro Press.-The question Of bond

enabling towns to bond themselves for the

course, are prepared for all the consequences
Of litigation and i'll will Whether it will
be found in conformity with the provision Of
the Constitution which declares that no
mans property shall be taken for public
purposes unless he be paid an equivalent in
money is to be settled.
A resolution was introduced and passed,
declaring that no bill or motion except by q
vote Of two thirds should be entertained
after one week from wednesday. Thus the
people will perceive the end Of the session
If foreseen and we hope it Is not far off.
May the day be FASTENED; above all things
in this matter, may the day be speedily
ushered in, when the people shall demand
such change in their Constitution as to ai-
NIT of a delegation not to exceed so in the
House and 25 in the Senate, aud biennial
sessions. This would save $4,000 annual

worse, and as the evils under which she

We will be thankful for the good enjoyed
and patiently endure the evils. \ bill has

the Office of county commissioner and sub

tons against majority Of the Board, con-
tanned in the Report of Secretary Adams
But IN view of the importance of the matters
involved, and the amount Of attenti n and

seems like rather hasty action. 1.-THE mem
bers of the Board feel strong in the prudence
and purity of their action las we are bound
to suppose they do) We should suppose they
would have preferred to await the yIndica-
ton which fuller discussion and light would
bring, and accept their re-appointment at a
later day as proof, rather than as a fore
stallment, of such vindication.
