wrong, but We eay it is the fact. It is
useless to deny it, or to argue against

certain. The introduction of negroes

nounce what is, as being what ought

justified in doleful lamentation that

like to stick to facts) that will retard
for awhile at least this Chinese immi-
grafton. 1t is that universal suffrage
is now the settled policy Of our
consolidated majority-governmcnt.
If there wero q negroo majority in
every Southern State, it would not
long remain 80. A reaction in favor
of tho white race in federal politics
would surely como. AS it is, we
think tho man who believes in suoh
reaction, while there is so evidently a

fact therefore, which is not going to
be ovorthrown except by revolution.
Ten millions of Chinese would give. q
new phase to tho matter, and compel
that worry revolution by making tho
question of race national question.
But until that number como, univor-
sal suffrage will continu, tho form of
government, whatever may bo tho
reality, and to tho full cxtont of the
influence Of the tremendously powor-
full idea of natural equality underlying

lively recognize the prcsenso and in

opposition now manifesting itself

philosophical phenomenon in the
world. But it can only retard, it
cannot prevent the Immigration.

Mr.. Editor q:

A'Af' SS"et"
Tho discussion into which l am
drawn by "Common Sensc," is, to say
the least, quite premature, and pru-
dence would have oounselled its post
ponement. But having begun, it may
we'll continue. I shall, therefore,
fling out few suggestions, and allow
Common Sense" to close the discus
sion, according to courtesy, by his re-
joinder.
The force of the argument of "Com-
mon Sense" consists chiefly in tho
boldness of his assertions /; c. Q. sa
mixed government is fixod fact" ssa
large body of respectable whites, if
compromise views be rejected, will, at
the next election, act with the radi-
GALS" ''the do nothing policy is con-
trary to tho practice and principles of
human nature" &c. In reply, Mr..
Editor, will try dogmatio assertion
on my side also. !. A mixed govern
ment is so abhorrent to the feelings
and character ofthe white race, that
though it may exist as temporary
enormity, it is by no means fixed
fact, but will be sooner or later prao.
tically overthrown.2 9. Whatever
body Of whites give in thoir adhesion
to radical villainies, will certainly
lose their respectability.i q. No
people ever becomes thoroughly en-
shaved except Ivy their own consent,
and if they can edo nothing" except
protest, it is wisdom to tsdo nothing"
and await tho developments of Proyi-
donco. Remember Hungary. Look
at France. Count the vote of Ohio
and Pennsylvaniathis coming fall.
Ii seems to me that I have replied
to "Common Sousc, in his own favor
ito and peculiar style, most complete.
ly. But let me again warn him, and
those like him, against chasing an
ignis Jatuus for it is unwise to ex-.
pect that, the negroo majority being
what it is, any other course than a
most complete and absolute surrender
to radicalism in South Carolina, can
ever restore to !, the white minority
any share in the Offices or, manage
ment of the government. Yield the
pointof universal suffrage, and tho ne.
groes will laugh at you. 'Yield {!

you offices already, and will give you
Offices Of still greater dignity now"
The, negro will listen to them, and the
question being which party will grant
mose to the nogroe, the negroe will
vote with tho radicals. Thus will
the course recommended by "common
