The rivalry between the owners Of

The Public Schools.

ing schools and acquiring education.
ana have, therefore, heretofore paid
or moIicum cf school lax as cheer
fuily As any other tax we pay; and
Wc have been particularly anxious
;hal, since Tie co!orcd race has been
granted the privilege Of citizenship,
their children should enjoy The icic-
its Of 40 education which WoIid
render thrp capable If exercising that
privilege in an Intelligent maunc- and
in such way a. would not cnGaDgcr

for their welfare is not 80 elastic as
to stretch over aud include in the bcnp-
fits of education that Of social
equality, which is implied in their
silly demand for mixed schools, and i
that feature i 10 he incorporated iuto
he free school system; il the priHci-
pal bpncir.aric. Of that system are to
dictate a. 10 how tie schools are 10 BE-
conducted, then We. or one, are in
favor of abo!i>hing it at once and
forever, and leaving ,hcse arrogant
fools to educate themselves and their
own children. II they are deer
mined to force the white people, who
ID not wish to do 80, to send their
children TO the same school vita
theirs, or be refused tie benefit Of tie
public schools, then we are opposed
to bring taxed 20 educate their chill
drcn, while the poor willie children
20 uneducatot, il their parents are
unable 10 send them to private schools;
for that would be The result Of mixing
the school.
The negro, Instead # a?roganl'y
demanding mixed schools, should be
thankful 10 the taXpaye-s for support
irg separate schools for their benefit;
and they would be were it not for
those smart Aicck,' who have
acquired just enough knowledge to
think they should ill HE Offices aud to
make them appear ridiculous to persons
Of Intelligence ani refinement. And
they do not care a cent whether the
children az their race aye educated or
not, just 80 they iiGd Il hoLby to ride
into Office on; bu, We can inform
them this hobby will never take then
there. TIE rule Of LeSottcd ignorance
and corruption will never Le reinatatcd
in this country without Il terrible
struggle.
These remarks DO not apply to the
country ncgroes-at least in North
Loui~iana-for they have taken no
part ia this not only absurd bet
suicidal demand, but seem to he con
tent to let "wcil enough alone" aud
allow the white people to educate their
children in their own WY bUs they
do apply TO those ;hick->ku.lcd fools
Of New Orleans who are inst fools
enough 10 think they are statesmen
Gad thar they can ride Ills mixed
public school hobby into official posi-
lions. They are sadly mistaken, aud
if they lad the good 0! their race at
heart they would cease their silly
demands at once, for, although tie
taxpayers are wiling 10 do everything
in reason to make good citizens Of
their race, they DO not propose to be
dictated to by them in the matter
They Will abandon The project Of
educating them before they will con.
tinue ii at the expense Of their own
seIf-respeet and pr!de aud race.

Ar THE evening services of the Fort Street Con-

| a very instructive Sermon which was delivered by
the Pastor, Rev. Mr.. Frear, wherein the Preacher
dwelt upon the mercy of Jesus in enduring iniquity,
while we Ourselves. at the same time that we pre-
tend to belong to the good, are inclined to crush

God does no. visit them with his visible judg-
