Of slavery, far more than was imagined
of an uneducated race recently enfran-
chised from bondage. They have en-
tered almost all professions and indus
tries, they have advanced yearly in
wealth and accumulation. The rest
must come in time. Compared with the
American Indian, the P0lynesian and
other peoples, the negro has stood his IN

any Of them. His development cannot
be sudden, as was hoped for. but will be
gradual and satisfactory. The colored
race can here become, il properly led
and taught, Of valuable assistance to the
south in its development.
As for immigration the negroes cannot
long prevent it. The white people have
poured into the border States in incress-
ing majorities: they are coming south,
filling up the waste places Of the cutton
States. With no negro immigration
from Africa, but plenty of white immi-
grants from Europe and the north. the
negro question must become Of less and
