AGAINST MISCEGENATION.

The Morgan City Reriew says: "One
OF the most astonishing things in the
world, and one that most surely strikes
the residents Of other states as being
extremely remarkable, is the fact that
in Louisiana there is no law to pre-
vent the marriages of whites and
blacks. Miscegenation is a crime !;
it is violation of Gods and natures
laws; /; it is hideous blot upon the
escntcheon of our state it attacks the
purity OF the superior race, yet no leg
islature that has ever convened with
in the state house walls has possessed
the moral courage to rise above the
traditions of old Louisiana and pass
laws for the publication of it's people.
