THE IMPORTANT QUESTION BEFORE
THE COUNTRY AMI ITS SOLUTION.
Under this heading, the New York
Herald very forcibly says:
TuE INFORMANT QUESTION EFORE THE
COUNTRY AND ITS SOLUTION.
Shall this great and proud republic be
Governed by q negro valance of power -?
fThat is the important question now be-
Tore the country. Shall thirty-hye mil
ifonz of the Caucasian rsce-the highest
tyna Of mankind-be ruled by q few mil
lions Of ignorant negroes, who are the
Lowest in the order Of human beings and
v no are scarcely removed from barbar-
ism , Such q proposition would seem In
I-a5H.I e were IL not supported by facts.
$50 nav doubt even whether such q
Gans+rous sdea would be seriously enter
+-fnad nv any party or faction, aud may
tLiIk that we state the case too broadly.
Tbare Is. however, no exaggeration /;
Il ia the well known purpose Of
The Radicals to perpet0ate their
Iowar IN possible, through the votes
~ me Southern negroes. This has been
their policy all along. The reconstTuc-
fion acts Of Congress, DISTINGUISHING a
i0rge number Of whites and enfranchis-
sug the blacks Of the South, were passed
fo- this purpose. Inc bitter feeling TO
- President, the threats OF impeachiug
Nm ne scurTilous abuse Of him, and all
- iegisistion 10 iRtimidRte him and his
nGce snd 20 take away his power, grew
- ~ his opposition TO this atrOcious
,yolicv of the Radicals. The brutal and
baniShted Africans, just emancipeted
NOM slavery, and not knowing their
FONT hands from their left, not knowing
mat = vote meant or what they vote
for have been given power with a view
10 deciding the Presidential election and
NE destiny Of the republic. n intelli-
geut white people Of our " blood and
Tsee 10 the South have e placed un-
der these ~bsrbarians, and the fairest and

n,,sr to desolation, with the prospect Of
fri0htful starvation, Generalization and

Not only so, but the South is given
