OF their danger, Mr.. Cardozo admitted
that the debt Of the State, under the
Scott administration had been incrcas.
cd from "about six millions of doll,rs''

In the same address, (pagc ll,) Mr..
Cardozo discusses The Land commission
law, and says:
81 do not deny that this law has not
been carried out rs well as We could
desire. One among those entrusted
with its execution has seen fit to an.
grand'zc himself at the expense cf tic
people"
Now, Mr.. Cardoso is member of
the Advisory Board OF the Land Com
mission, aud was at one time so disgust.
ed with the whole concern that no
washed his hands Of it, and declined to
attend the meetings OF the Board. As
one who knows, he admits that tho
people have been dcfram.ed, md tho
people have right to demand The
name orthe guilty person. Mr.. Cardo.

'Tl'is clearly comedies what the South
has always nssnrtcd-that The North
gave The suffrage TO the freedmen for
'lhe protection ot the Radical minority

the freedmen. Andit shows that what
the Radicals cail the bitterness and
prejudice Of The Sou,l.ern whites, in
