The MEMPHIS AUalanche Gays: Every
dollar which has been spent for the educa'
ton of the negro has been SO much worse
than thrown away" The way the negro
preachers and the other negroes in Virginia
who can read and write are now going, tends
greatly to suhstantiate the truth of what the
Avalanche saya. The difference between
educated white people md educated negroes
Is that whereas the former try to teach their
race to be better and to be contented with
the position in which it has pleased God to
nut them, the latter try 10 teach theirs to be
worse and to be discontinued. And yet ninety
two per ct. of the money spent on the negro
schools in Virginia is raised by taxes e1-
acted of white people.
