Effect of the Southern Victories.

The Washington City Radical Commission
crs who now run the government of the Fed
eral city, it is said, in order to appease Fred.
Douglas and the ten or fifteen thousand negro
voters there, were about to proclaim the pub
lie schools free alike to all children, and thrs
establish mixed schools or make the poor
whites go without education.
Since the elections in North Carolina and
Tennessee, however, the Commissioner have
announced that the report is wholly sensa-
tional; and it is telegraphed over the country
that
General Ketchum, one of the District
Commissioners, says that there is no intention
on the part of the Commissioners to adopt
the mixed school system in the District Of
Columbia.
None of the Commissioners are in favor of
such system, and, indeed, all are opposed to
it, and there is not any possibility Of such a
course.
Gen. Ketchum says the report has its origin
among some of the opponents of the Commits
sioners, and is wholly sensational"
What would the negro say to this? Let Fred.
Douglass answer. This pampered and much
huded Radical representative of the coming
man, - in his paper, printed in Washington, on
the defeat of the Civil Rights bill, has the
following, which, although we have heretofore
published in the GAZETTE, We take occasion
TO reproduce it
by the treachery of Republican members
OF Congress, elected in large part by colored
votes, the negro is continued an outlaw. For
tunately the negro has the ballot He owes
it to himself to use that ballot in furnishing
the treachery of the men whose treason to
professed principles leaves him victim to
negro hate. Every ballot that shall be cast
by the colored men for the so-called Re-
publican who on Saturday night last voted
against the Civil Rights bill will be regarded
as SO many Endorsements of their treason.
Our people are not the towards to kiss the
hand that smites them. They must not be
led into the support of pretended friends by
sophistry nor by intimidation. Defeat every
pretended Republican who voted against the
Civil Rights Bill
OF course Mr.. Lohands political friends
will not be so careful as to read what Freder-
lex says to the negroes whose tax receipts Mr..
Lofand holds in his safe.
Unfortunately for Mr. Fred. Douglass and
fortunately for General Ketchum and the rest
OF the Commissioners, the negroes Of Wash
ington City have been deprived of their bal
lots" and no negro has a right to vote in the
capital The Commissioners are as autocratic
IN ther powers as the Gar of all the Russas

The Democratic majority in North Carolina
has been ascertained to be about 10000. This
news does not seem agreeable to our cotem-
poraries and hence it is not found in their
columns. Delaware will emulate the cold
North State" and give correspondence
overwhelming majority for a government by
white men, and reject the sentiment of the
Radicals that special laws should be made 10
elevate the negroes above the whites. For
TINS Is what Summers Civil Rights bill means.
1t forces the negro into the ladies' cars and
INTO the ladies' parlors, and he can only be
put out at the risk of suit in the United
States Court and a penalty. And we believe
the United States Attorney is made to prose
cute the case under penalty for not doing
so' And these same provisions apply to the
public schools and Sunday schools, in our
STATE. In fact, according to our Radical law
makers at Washington, a white man "has no
rights that negro is bound to respect"
