i'THE PROSPERITY of the South Depend
ent upon the Elevation of the Negro" is the
title Of new book by Mr.. Lewis Il. Blair
of Richmond, author of "Unwise Laws"
Mr.. Blair very properly puts no reliance IN
certain newspaper reports concerning tne
great prosperity OF the South, for any man.
old enough to draw comparison in the CASE
knows that the present condition OF the
South, 10 point of general prosperity ooeS
not compare with that it enjoyed before tne
war. But if Mr.. Blair be right in the opinion
that the sole hope ofthe South lies in the eie-
walton of the negro, then her future prospect
is poor indeed for theexperience OF quarter
Of century of freedom and free schools
proves that such conditions are not factors
in the problem of the elevation OF the negro.
The negro, to be elevated, must be treated
as child. In his case, suffrage and eleVa-
ton are incompatible.

ing In Chicago and that s650,000 of tie
81 900, proposed had already been sub
scribed, has aroused the liveliest interest
among the Chicago Baptists. "Mr. Rock

Church, land though his gift is a gen.
erous one, it is rumored that he will make
the amount something like 50 600 900 be.

Greet to say that the University Place ia the
most favorably looked on by the committee
as it would likely increase the price. Since
the Baptist people Lost that property which
was bequeathed them by Stephen a. Doug.
las, they have felt desire to regain
possession of it. 1t is now in the
hands of the Home Insurance Company and
is bound up some way by litigation. With
this present donation, and if fair price is
asked think the committee will take back
their old ground and on it erect the new

THE RICHMOND Dispatch says the pay
meut of the State debt is an utter impossi.
blity as it amounts to 20 or SO million dol
lars. Leaving out of view the fact that no
matter what the amount of the debt may
he, the creditors agree to accept in full pay
ment of the annual interest thereon only
such portion of the States revenue, at the
present rate of taxation, as may remain after
all her other expenses shall have been pro-
vided fer according to her own estimates,
the other foct, that Sir Edward Thornton's
offer was for principal of 81 Coz, SCI for
the tax receivable coupon bonds, and that
all the States other liabilities added thereto
would not amount to $25, 600 ,000, shows that
the Dispatch is now so intent upon repudi-
atirg debt which few years ago it was in
favor OF paying, that it has lost sight of what
is apparent 10 every body else.
