The negro population Of the sea coast
districts is more fixed than that Of the
interior. Il is very averse 70 removal.
the s0ftest atmosphere, the alluvial and
teemlug nature Of the soil, and the
abundance Of fish, oysters, wild fowl
ana game, greatly attract il. There.
too, the African race is far les liable 10
the malsri0us diseases than the white,
aud for that reason can indulge their de-
sire for the gregari0us seclusion and in
dOlent quiet of their kind. The
negroes along the Atlantic shore are
more ignorant and primitive, less self
reliant and enterprising than those OF
the interior. They lose but little by
emigration; but there the natural in
crease is less than elsewhere. Their
character, habits and food are not liked
Uy the interior mass Of their race, and
they gain little by immigration.
The negro population is, ia general,
sto-idly Indifferent to any system or
means Of improved culture, and to
manurlng or any mode Of restoring
land. This, with the slOthfulness and
negligence Of their work, renders their
labor unsuited T. much OF the compare
lively exhausted soil Of parts Of the
Older Southern states, or 10 the naturally
poor portions Of any OF all OF them, OF 70
districts where climate requires more
strenuous and skilled tillsge. As the
newer states are more sOutherlv and
westward, they add new attractions and
force 70 the flow Of that population in
their direction. This largely counter
balances the inducements Of political
influence 10 retain the negroes in the
states where they have at present the
majority and the political CONTROLS in
South Carolina, Mississippi and Louis
lana.
The next following table shows the
change in the gain, and the relation Of
gain, Of the negro population Of the same
States for the decade from 1850 10 1870:
Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1872-10-03

The increase in the negro population
OF the United States IN the decade from
1850 70 1850 was nineteen per cent, anC
IN the decade from 1850 70 1870 wa
twelve per cent, and but for the wal
during the latter period would have beer
at least niteen per cent. Those States
whose peE cent. Of gain has been less
than these average rates have oompAra-
lively decreased in that population by
emigration, and those where the gain
has been greater than the natural in
crease have enlarged il by Immigration.
From the geographical position of these
respective States it IS evident that
the flow Of emigration has been
uniformly South and partly west.
II this continues, as it probably
will, the negroes viii m0noDolise Flor
ida aud Southwestern Texas, and as the
white population presses on their heels.
and to their exclusion from their pre-
sent field Of labor, they will eventually
pour into Mexico and Central America.
This pressure Of the white race, TO the
displacement OF the black, viii proba-
bly ever and at least be in proportion to
the urepOnderance Of the former over
the latter, and which, in 1870, by the
census Of the above States and Territory,
exclusive Of Missouri and Delaware
was seven millions seven hundred and
sixtv thousand nine hundred and eighty
eight whites to four million three hum
dred and uinety-eight thousand and sew
enteen blacks. II will be increased by
white immigration.
south Carolina would promptly throw
off the preponderaDce Of her negro pop
ulation but for the mass which clings TO
her sea shore and rice district. She wiz
