TRANSPORTATION impossible; p

Notwithstanding the general agreement
that the transportation of the negro to
Africa is a visionary scheme, some south
erners Of both races, continue to urge
its adoption. The Charleston News and
Courier maintains that there is nos such
thing as a satisfactory settlement OF the
race problem unless the negroes are seq
regated, and the best ways it. thinks, to
bring that about is to send them back to
Africa and let them there have their own
nation. Another scheme that is intended
as a substitute for transportation, is the
creation Of a negro state; where only
negroes shall,b allowed to vote. This plan
does not involve forced emigration, but
provides for the exclusion of the negro
from voting in other states than the ne
