lie Opposes Colonization, and Says
the South Will Reap as She Has
sown a Great Race War Predicted
Decided Sensation in che Gallery.

WESTINGHOUSE January Ex-senator
Ingalls, today delivered an address
before the senate that will easily be
looked upon as the greatest event Of
the session, his subject being the
Morgan bill. for the migration OF the
negroes of the South for colonization
in Africa. His opepin remarks were
upon the history Of the Caucasian
race which, he said, would never min
gle with any other race, in which re-
spect it would maintain it's past
record. During his talk of two hours
he quoted numerous instances of in
timidation of negro voters in the
South, especially in Mississippi, and
says that there is now no question
that negroes have not tie suffrage
that was supposed to be given them
by the war The inevitable result, he
said OF this condition would he that as
the South had sown. 80 shall she reap.
As they had dealt with the negroes SO
would the negroes in turn deal
with them. AS enligh 5ment increases
their power, they will learn the use
of d, Mantle and the shot gun to en-
force their rights when the time shall
come and the negroes of the South
are dominant. The North will look
on silently, though a great race war
between the. whites and blacks OF the
entire country would enlist Caucas-
sions in the defensive rs unit. The
contest between the whites and blacks
of The South, will not be interfered
with outside of that section. He dep
recated the catastrophy but saw it
coming as the inevitable outcome OF
the present political practices of the
South. In considering methods to
he ID of this calamity, he discredlted
schemes of colonization and suggested
that the democratic party OF the
South practice simple justice toward
the uegro voters as the only means OF
preventing the uprising of imitators
oi John Brown. The remarks
Of The senator produced decided
sensation in the galleries where sew

WASHINGTON, January 23.-The
secretary Of agriculture has nego-
tiated with the secretary of war
touching q transfer of some 300 acres
Of the Arlington reservation to the
control Of the agricultural depart
ment. That department is not, how
ever, willing to take this land. with
its present occupants, a collection of
colored people. The secretary wishes
the property to be delivered to him
clear and without incumberance, and
on such transfer, which will be made
with the assent Of congress, it is pro-
posed to make Arlington bloom as
a rose, by transferring thither
several Of the most impor-
tant divisions OF the agri-
cultural department. The bureau of
animal industry will go first, as there
is ample space at Arlington for this
work. The forestry division will
establish there its headquarters, and
efforts will be made to rear on its
grounds specimens Of every American
tree which can be made to grow in the
latitude OF Washington. An expert
mental station for the cultivation Of
grasses will also find a location at
Arlington, and, in time, all the divi-
sions Of the department which require
large areas of ground for their service
will be transferred there. 1t is expected
that az soon as the season allows the
removal of the negroes from the
grounds, the change will be made and
the Agricultural department will
begin ifs work.
