10 The Ell,tor Of the Dispatch:

| TO the Editor OF me DiSpdtW;
We don't think you have said one word
too much about the great Outrage commit
fed by Cameron, Farr, and Blair " III ap-
noinfinp certain negroes as school trustees
/ In Richmond. That it was ordered as a
matter Of spite BY the Boss we have not The
| shadow OF a doubt. TO humble and de-
Grade your people, rs far as 1t could DE
done. no doubt was precious sweet NOR
I sci TO him. especially as his doing so would
/ tend TO strengthen him rs the great Joshua
Of the negro race. The acts OF the white Ma
hone oflice-holders and oficc-seekcrs, With
Mr.. Fred. Douglass's ideas and the circular
of one Rev. Mr.. Weaver, seem 10 be bring
ING forth quickly the fruit which might
have been expected. Permit us 10 call
your attention 10 some remarks in the Nal
to-day on certain extracts given from q
negro paper published in the city OF Pc
tersburg. [See bclow.l Bear in mind. II
YOU please. that the great bulk OF the Ma
hone party in Virginia is made up OF ne
grocs. Now. il any white man other than
an oflice-hOlder or oliicc-seekcr IN Virginia
can read the extracts quoted and still con-
tinue TO act with the party made up prin-
cipally by negroes, then we suggest that
as early rs possible he will black his face.
The extracts given show the rapid growth
Of the acts OF the leader Of the Malone
party, and the teachings OF some OF the
shining lights among the negroes. III pow
erty and sore trials have not caused the
white people OF the State TO lose all SEM
blancc of true manhood, ii is TO be
hoped that they will rise as one man
and by their votes declare thar Virginia
shall not be ruled by Malone and the me
grocs OF the State. Let the white people OF
the State sink for the present such issues
as the tariff ana ciyil-seryIce reform, and
strike TO crush ont the humbling Of them
selves, their wives. daughters. and sons.
oh. how we wish that Henry \. Wise
could rise from the dead. for ii such thing
was possible he would make, we feel sure,
more hateful TO the white people OF Viz
ginia the present Coalition party than he
did the old KnOw-Nothing party.
MAY 10. 1883. b. y.
from the Petersburg NALL
Brady's circulars sent from this city seem
TO work WELL For instance, the negro or
gan in this city has the following in its last
issue, which must be gratifying TO the
white men who have given in their allcgi-
ance TO the Republican party.
The Readiusters are beginning 70 remove
all barriers in the way OF "ciyil inter-
course" according to the esteemed prOpa-
gandists who pervert the Government Office
in this city to the circulation Of their de-
grading literature. IL is 4 remarkably dan
gerous way they are beginning" as wit
ness the following from the negro organ in
question:
.'The dirtiest, the filthiest, the lowest,
and most degraded pale-face wretch can 20
INTO any OF the saloons in this city and pur-
chase q glass Of soda or ice-cream. This
vile prescription and foul corruption can
be stopped and should be stopped. Show
your race pride, and don't a negro buy one
cents worth Of anything from those places
who refuse You accommodation. In plain
words, don't buy even stick Of candy
from a confectioner who won't sell you II
glass OF soda or a plate OF cream. Don't
be 30 foolish and humiliate your manhood
as to cringe and fawn to these devils, and
we think the colored ministers would do
well 10 call attention 10 this subject and
urge upon the people the necessity OF MAIN
tanning race pride and a preservation OF
manhood.
Every time this question is raised tits
by these barnacles OF society and broken
down southern aristocracy. Who Of these
constant agitators is free from such fool
and Iicentious acts? Let him cast the first
stone. 1t is one thing certain that a negro
cannot marry a white woman without her
consent; and if the Anglo-SaXon were SO
pure, why was il necessary for the white
people Of this state to enact a law prevent
ing white women from marrying negro
men?"
