THE NEW DEPARTURE IN LOUIS
lama

The following frank and sensible
letter from ex-Gov. Manton OF Louis
lana to Gen. B~aauregard, is worthy Of
perusal. 1t indicate, n wholesome re-
cognition OF the rights Of the colored
population, and is a very good addi-
tion to the proofs fast accommodating,
that the recent movement In New Or
leans against the political plunderers
who have so long sucked the life blood
Of Louisiana, was both an honest and
thorough outgrowth Of popular sentl-
ment. Regarding the social equality"
dodge, Gov. Manton Is especially con-
else and sensible:
My DEAR Sm:-My first impulse
when I read the proceedings having In
view the reconciliation Of the two races
now existing In our State, was to write
you giving you my thanks for the frank
and manly part you took In 1t. one
you my humble but sincere approba-
tiou for the movement. 1t Is a pity we
did mol do so previous to the last NO
vember election, instead Of fighting
| with bad men. The colored people are
not our enemies. the freedmen particu-
larry. and II they do not act with us to
redeem Louisiana from ruin aud shame
lt will be our fault. Let us In good
faith allow them all the rights OF cltl.
zenship. Including a fair proportion OF
public Offices. according to their merit
and capacity. AS to this thing social
equality it Il but q scarecrow. No
law can regulate. much less control II.
It must be left t seek Its wi level.
Every man Is responsible for his ASSOC
Citations, but his neiShbor will always
do MS he pleases aud judge for himself.
I hope you will ~persevere In Your
efforts to bring about the cooperation
of the two races. to save our State from
thieves aud plunderers who nave nus
far taken our property from us. This
movement will do much to secure us
our rights. No II suspects you OF be.
Ing actuated by improper motives, and
[ am happy to associate with you.
Very respectfully yours,
A. MANroN.
