gEMPHIS APPEAL

WHEN the New York IEibUne says
"For the twenty-eight millions o.
whites in this republic to affect q feal
Of " negrosupremacy" from four millions
of just emancipated blacks, with next tc
no education, no property, no social posi-
ton, and not enough land in the aggre-
gate 10 afford each Of them q decent
grave, ia a hypocrisy so base, to cloak a
villainy so detestably faithIess and cruel,
that language fails to express the loath-
ing with which we regard it." It either
proves too 'little or too much 10
this obJurgatory outburst. II there
is no danger of "negro suprem-
acy" from these four millions OF blacks
who have "next to no education" ETC.,
why is he so anxious to clothe them with
political power? To protect themselves
from white rapscity, according to
Radical ideas, they must be clothed with
the right Of suffrage! II they will be
so powerless to make ethemselvessupreme,
how are they to make themselves felt
for their own protection? II they are
10 be in a perpetual minority and are so
ignorant that they cannot understand
how to secure their rights by availing
themselves of the strategy Of party bal
ances, will it be serviceable to themselves
to make them voters, and are they prop
erly qualified persons to sit in judgment
on the rights of white men? Unques-
tionably if these four millions Of blacks
are so imbecile as this, the right to vote
will be Of not the least service to them
selves.
But in point Of fact, the Tribune is cor
rect in some of its premises, and wholly
| in error In its conclusions.
The blacks would indeed be very
harmless but for the alliance with white
Radicals, who have drilled them in
secret OATH bound societies, until they
have formed the purpose to be supreme
at the South. We therefore hear them
expressing the ideas of their Haytien and
Liberian brethren, and perhaps for the
same re&son-that is to say, confession of
weakness and apprehension Of domina-
ton by the whites. They talk of allow
ing no white man to hold Office, where
they can secure it for themselves. This
will be very easy in the South, where 50
large portion Of the white men are dis
franchised, unless the reconstruction acts
are defeated. II we mistake Rot, the
Tribune is ore OF the most blatant advo-
Gates of these acts, Notwithstanding its
professed adherence "of all schemes Of
vengeance upon the discomtited Seces-
sionists.n If the Tribune would really
make q myth of "negro supremacy" J"
let it undo these atroeious acts first, and
afterwards give vent to its simulated
indignation at the imputed injustice
meditated against It's pet Africans.
