An exchange says that colored
. man III Indiana, has been sent to the
penitentiary. for marrying white
woman. We suppose the meaning OF
tins is that the man has been sent to
The penitentiary, for coliabiting with
white woman as his wife. 1t could
hardly be true that according TO Indi.
ana laws, a eolored person could legally
marry white person and at the same
time make it Il penitcntiary oifense for
SO doing. We regard the mixing OF
me TWO races as ahomniable. but think
u II Is wrong for the black man Ia
marry white woman, it is also wrong
on the part OF the white woman, and
II one goes to the penitentiary they
both ought to go.
