The Administration is threatened with q
new embarrassment by delegation from
the South Carolina colored people, This
deputation is instructed to protest against
the exclusion of negroes from Office. It is
asserted that the cOlored people already sp-
pointed to Federal positions in South Car
olina are mulattoes, or, at best, of mixed
blood, and that this marks an invidious
distinction against the tull-blooded negro.
Our colored friends, using the adjective in
its most restricted sense, will involve them
selves in difficulties if they persist in rais-
ing so nice point. If their representa-
tiYes in Office must show clear negro ped
igree they viii make physiological exam
instien necessary, as it was in certain
States in which eolored persons were not
allowed to testify against white persons &C.
cused Of crime, or cast vote. The reader
viii call to mind the Democratic legislation
Of this State, that voted out any admix-
ture Of Congo blood from the polls, and
gave especial force to the restriction-that
this was a white mems government. This
brings to mind an instance where a micro
seopie examination Of eyes and hair discov-
cred African traces and excluded the wit
ness. Our Southern brethren have always
been keen in guarding against African de-
scent, except in the propagation of planta-
ton stock. To fully satisfy the South Car
plina discomfort, en- chronological bureau
would have to be attached to the depart,
ment Of appointments.
