THE CIVIL RIGHTS Bill. AND THE
SCHOOLS.

The eolorcd people Of Virginia have to-
day magnificent opportunity to show
their good sense and their real interest in the
permanent welfare of this commonwealth.
Anill-judged measure is now before Con-
gress which may compel the education
of white and colored children. We
do not care to discuss any abstract
principle involved in this measure. The
practical results which are absolutely certain
to follow its adoption alone concern us.
We know as well as any future conse-
quence OF present action can be known
that the attempt to combine the two races
in the schools will result ia breaking up
the schools altogether. We recognize this
fact as caused by prejudices and antipathies
which we have no power to uproot. 1t is
enough that we see great and bene6cent
system, imperiled by an attempt to
reduce an abstraction to immediate prac-
tice. Let us appeal to the practical common
sense Of every Intelligent colored man to
say if he really believes that his people will
get better educational privileges by at
tending the same schools with the whites
Will that state of feeling be engendered
which leads men 10 give generously to the
common cause of education? Will the
contact OF the children thus enforced be
such as to encourage the hope of higher
attainments and more fraternity Of senti-
ment as they grow up?
Let it be considered that the colored
race, though large in numbers, constitute
minority of the whole people. Acting
with the greatest unity possible, they have
no poacer to compel concessions from The
whites. Whatever they get must come a!
the free gift Of the majority. 1t is there
fore wise to be very careful about insist
ing upon that which can do no practica
good to either race, but is sure 10 bring
confusion and RUIN to the most precious
and most truly conservative institution 0
our modern society-the free schools. lie
our colored people at once ask Congress tt
desist from any legislation which enforces
miaed schools, and they will have estab
lshed new claim to respect and conf
dence
