RECONSTRUCTION.
VOICES FROM THE SOUTH
WHAT OUR EXCHANGES SAY.
VIRGINIA.
[Ftom The Richmond Times Of Aonday.l

| ATTENTION, "FREEDaiEN l'-The fact may be
considered as demonstrated by recent official and
statistical publications that there are in the neigh.
| borhood Of one hundred and twenty thousand
white suffragans in Virginia and more than seven
| ty-fve thousand black voters.
] Alter deducting the disfranchised whites and
the demoralized renegades who arrayed against
their race and color, the white majority in Virginia
will not fall short Of thirty thousand votes ii our
people do not fall to register and exercise tho
| right Of suffrage. We direct the attention OF the
leading and controlling men Of both p rites TO
this statement as pregnant with political interest
and importance. It will teach the rejecting freed
men that those who have advised them to organ.
| ize party hostile to their white employers, Will
doom them to the modification Of perpetual and
hopeless minority.
1t is far more to their interests than il is to that
of the whites, that they should unite with their
employers in electing the bsst men to Office, re-
gardless Of the appeals Of Radical demagogues.
Whatever may be the power and strength OF Ine
negro in some Of The States further South, here
the Caucasian occupies the natural and proper re-
lation of the dominant and superior race in num-
bers as well as in intelligence. 1t is fortunate,
however for the freedmen, that the feelings of the
dominant race are of the kindest character to their
Late slaves. They have no disposition to WELD
their power to the injury Of the weaker race, but
are sincerely and honestly desirous to mature
system Of organic law calculated for the perfect
and permanent protection of all their recently &C
qured rights. Il is not at all probable that in To-
calities where the majority OF white voters for
members Of the Convention will be largest that
any candidate will be elected who is not willing to
give to the freedman all which is essential for tho
protection Of his rights Of person and property.
Unless the negroes shall yield to the advice OF
designing knayes, and organize black mans
party, there is no probability OF the large white
majority in Virginia being cast as a unit against
them. ,
As there is no conflict Of interest between the
whites and the blacks there should be no such po.
htical organizations as those which mercenary and
rascally itinerant hirelings are advocating. Inc
emissaries Of the Northern Radicals, for purely
selfish purposes, attempting to place the black
minority in this State in false position, and which
will prove suicidal to their own interests. We are
too familiar with the nature OF the negro to at
tempt to win him by fattery. We wish to tell him
in tho plainest possible language that neither his
emancipat on, nor the proscriptive legislation OF
Congress have made him stronger In Virginia than
his present employer and late master: Keeping
this undenlabe fact before hum, we wish him also
to understand that he can best promote his inter
ests, political and individual, by refusing to be
made the tool Of the bad men who are seeking to
array him in causeless hostility toward the white
race in this State.
RroHMoND NRaRoEs.--A Richmond correspon-
dent Of the Boston Adoertase- says that the ne
groes Of that city are somewhat demorslized. The
bad Influences, it observes, proceed from WASH
