fully appreciate the extraordinary character OF
the financial difficulties through which the

inevitable that able and patriotic representa-
tives should have differed like their constituen-

saving, as ii does the people directly and indi-
rectly many millions of dollars annually over
the old State bank system, in exchange and dis

lion Congress shall keep steadily In view the re-
sumption of specie payment, to the end that at

We would not forget the claims OF the colored
people Of the South to the nations fostering
care and protection, wrested from their mas

them by the government as war measure and
in aid Of the Union cause, given the elective
franchise as q means not alone Of protection
to themselves, but Of protection to the nation,
it is now the high duty of the government,
from which il cannot shrink without mourning
and deserving the execration Of mankind for
all time, TO protect them in the rights and
privileges OF their enforced citizenship. Their
ignorance is their fault errors OF theory and
mistakes in conduct are but the legitimate fruits
OF their former enslaved condition. The gov
eminent assumed the responsibility for evils
resulting from these when 1t clothed them with
the full rights and privileges OF citizens. We
appeal to the National Government, as the
good name and fair fame OF the nation is dear
to 1t, to protect these people in their human
and political rights, and in their persons prop
erty. and homes, and to provide and secure
them IN the enjoyment Of al educational ad-
