IL MI Murray opinion the negro qiss'

any previous time, aud be gives hls sicws
oi the present condition oi the citizens Of
African descent who inliablt the recon
stmeted states. lie says that 50 long as
the negroes remain here they viii DO
burden to the country IN a national point
OF view, aud that the burden VIII grow
heavier every year as the old ones die out
and the young ones come 10 fll their
places, since those who have grown up
since emancipation are much more worth
less than those who learned to work as
slaves. Nj Murray argues that the ne
groes are totally deficient IN energy, fore
sight, economyyand mental capacity that
without the direction Or supervision OF
white men they would perish in few
years, so that II would be folly to colonize
them by themselves on territory within the
United States, since they would inevitably
starve TO death under such an arrange
ment, while their presence is curse in
any white community, because their habits
OF larceny are such, and their Incidence is
50 excessive, that 1t Is impossible for either
the blacks or whites to prosper where the
former form large proportion OF the pop
ulation. The best workers among the old
negroes will not do more than sixty per
cent OF the work they did as slaves, while
the young men will not do more thnn forty
per cent. OF what they ought to do. 1t is
impossible Tor either whites or blacks to
RAISE vegetables or chickens or hogs where
there Is large negro population, he says,
come to maturity; an as the consequence
of all these evils, Mr.. Murray declares that
in all sections where the African race
equals, or nearly equals. the whites in
number, the people OF both races must in.
eyitably get poorer and poorer every wear
until they sink down into abicct poyerty.
To remedy this state of things, Mr.. Muir
ray proposes that all the negroes should
be shipped off to Africa, n country which
"God made to suit the negro. where the
spontaneous productions of the earth will
supply him with food, and where the eli.
mate is so warm the year round that the
transported freedmen will have no neces,
sity for buying any clothes. Mr. Murray
says he cordially voted for Grant in 1868
and again in 1872; that no good reason
can be assigned why the President should
not be supported if he runs again; and an.
nounces his solemn determination to vote
for him for third term il he will only
adopt this project Of transporting the ne.
gro population to Africa, as the great issue
of the canvass.
