The judge should have called the jury 8 attention to the evidence as to the place where the alleged rape was com mitted, and the presence of persons near the house who heard no outcry from the girl; and the fact that atter- wards she joined her companions with out telling them that she had been out ragged.

It did not appear why the preponderance of thought should be be- slowed upon the descendant of the African. 1t had cost the Government millions to settle the race question with the Indian, and still it was not settled. The Chinese branch of the racc question had lcen summarily set tied; settled, too. ill defiance of treaty stipulations, humanity and justice. The Chinaman had to go or die. Cupidity brought the African and the Chinamen here; Cupidity dro,e the Chinamen out. The Indian would not be reduced 10 slavery, and so he was hunted and corralled. Tho Indian was here before the white man. the African, or the MunCVlian.
 Nr. Butler quoted from Rev. Edward w. Blyden, Rev. J. S Lee and Rev. E. | Gaston. all colored. in support Of his | statement hat emigration was the only | solution of the race problem. lie also read extracts from the political deba tes | between Abraham Lincoln and stephen | A. Douglas in l>5s. in which both of them favored the separation of tin @ black and white races. also an eXtrac t from a speech ofeX-loStmaSter-ticn [ | David Mckay. holding that but little | of the spirit of SC, tionaliSm remained among the southern people.
 | Mr. Butler said that a fear existed | that if tho negroes cmigrated there would be no other labor to till the soil | He thought not What the South needed and what sho would get if re lieved ofhe superabundanco of choa p labor, was an immigration of thrifty. intelligent citizens, [reo-holderS and wealth producers. With this accession the progress in the development of the south during the past decade would be Insignificant when compared with its future progress.
 Mr. IIoar replying to Mir. Butler ex- pressed his qualification al the tone and temper: as well as the ability and elo- lqurnce with which the Senator from South Carolina had presented his owr view. but it seemed to him that the proposition was the most astonishing that had ever been heard in the legis Native history of the Senate or in the Legislative history of any free civilized land pros porous people. Tho United States was at this moment growing ir wealth, strength and prosperity; ant Istill the demand for labor kept more
 than abreast with the general growth O
 the country. And yet in the Senate : the United States proposition Wa
