Colored men from its benefits. Tho Pennsylvania
Democratic Convention recently resolved in favor
of granting the puhlia lands to uhilt malet. Mrs.
Swisshelm, In her lust paper, give these whito
kinncd Democrats a meritod castration.
Frederick Douglass' hist paper contuins tho fol.
lowing lettor from Ucrrit Smith, explanatory of his
course In regard to tho measure :
WASHINGTON, March 6th, 1854.
FaiDiAtc Douoi.ass: My Deak Sin : An hour
ago, I gave my voto against tho Homestead Hill ;
and. that too. notwithstanding I had mado a speech
in favor of it ; and, that too, notwithstanding I
liare, for so many years, lovod, and advocated, and!
acted on, the great essential principles of the Kill.
My apparent incoiismlcncy in this case is ox-
plmiued by tho fact, that, just beforo wo wcro called
vote on the Dill, it was so amended as to limit
its grant of lund to tehile persons.
I? my fellow land reformers, w ith whom I havo,
long, toilod for tho success of our land reform
doctrines, shall bo aggrievod by my vote, I shall be
rry. Aovertnciowi, 1 can never regret my Vole.
I was a man beforo I was a lund rrfurmer. And,
for tho ako of no gains, however great, or
however many, may I concent to ignore tlio claims
and even the fact itself, of a common manhood.
But the advantages which nro (ought, at tho ex
pense of trampling on human rights, nro not gains.
Such gain aro losses oven to those who got them.
Tho lloiiiostead liill would have been purchased at
too dear a rato had it proscribed but one negro, or
l I i : T i . ... - r i 1 . I .
only one Indian. The curso of God is upon the
bill, or there is no God. There is no God. if we
Wa lilmrtv tn insult nml mitrn.m nnv iwv.ii.m uf
his children
To reconcile mo to the Hill as amended. I was
told by one nf the Members of Congress, that the
oolurvtl iivuplo would not bo rtiuk out from tho
public lund ; bnt that they could still buy them '.
That is, the colored people must buy their homes,
whilst tlio whito poojde are to havo freo homes
What a comment this on tho great justifying doc
trine of negro slavery, that thn negroes arc unable
to take oaro of themselves. What a spectacle nf
nierciles cruelly wo present 1 Tho most frightful
Rassages of history furnish no parallel to it. Our
ational Legislature joins our Stnto Legislatures
in holding out to the Irco colored people die hard
alternative of roturning under the yoke of slavery,
-or of being shut out from our broad Continent
And, then, tho excuse for this treatment is no less
unreasonable and insulting than tho treatment is
cruel and murderous. It is. that tho free colored
people nro too ignorant nnd lu.y ami worthless to
iloservo any bettor choico than .lavcry or death.
And this is tho excuse of tlioso, who shut out the
colored children from schools, nnd drive them into
negro pom ; and banish them from society ; and
mark then a physical and moral lepers, to be
every whore shunned, and loathed, nnd hated!
That our free colored brethren should in these
circumstances he no mmo discouraged and deject
ed, no more soll'-dcspaii ing and soll'-dcspising ; no
lovrorin iutolligence, nnd morals, nnd thrift, is to
tnc amazing. That tlio mass of them should, not
withstanding tho depressing, crushing influences
topon them, be still rising nnd bettering their con
dition ; and that thero should be rapidly multiply
ing iustance among thoin of the acquinitum of
wealth, and of distinction in writing nnd oratory,
and general scholarship, U more than 1 had sup
posed possible.
Your friend.

against ino repeal nt mat pBrt ot tho Missouri

that our public men would imitate that exalted
vifttio which so eminently distinguished those
whoso names honor and and adorn our history.
Mas Pennsylvania no honored son, eminent by his
services nnd position, w ho, in this hour of most
imminent peril to liberty, will speak boldly and
mnnfully for his country, for freedom, for human
ity? Will this great nnd free Commonwealth lend
her powerful influence for tho extension ofAfi i
enn slavory over the American continent? Or
will sho stand firm in upport of her early faith
nnd trno to tho mighty interests of tho future ?
Pennsylvania, by her political voice, can givo so-
!"unty to Ircedom, or sho can crush It out lor con-
turics, if not forever. Our HonretieutativM i
Congress hold in their hands the fate of this Ne
braska lull, l.et them ponder well the votes thev
givo upon it. The issues involved in it are vital.
ranching to the very foundations of our institutions

Theso requests reached Washington, were quietly
shelved, and tho privilego rofused. This shows
the distinction made in tho Indian liurcau bctwocn
Kansas and Xebrn'ka, for it was granted in the
hitter, and refused in the former, without a reason
given, iiut this is not till. About the limo this
course was decided upon, it will bo remembered
that Senator Douglas, under cover of a mcro pro
text that this first bill divides the Cheiol.ce country.
introduced as a substitute, two separate and distinct
bills for Kansas and Nebraska. The dividing line
between these territorie was the fortieth parallel,
which strikes tho Missouri river near the mouth of
the great Nahamu ; and tho southern boundary of
Kansas wa mado the thirty-seventh parallel; that
is, runninc north of the Cherokee country alto
gether, nnd north of tho louthwestern countic of
tin tato. in other words, Kansas territory was
mado to extend from the thirty-seventh to tho forti
eth parallel, or from Holt county to Jasper county,
on our frontier. Nor is tho end yet. in addition
iu wie ni-uimii ui a uiviuiug lino violating geogra
phy as well as topography, tho bill thu framed
were encumbered, nnd that, too, in direct confliut
with tho report of tho Committee on Territories,
with a clause repealing tho Missouri Compromise
of 1820, so as to embarrass their passage with the
delays of a new slavery agitation.
" Thus it will bo seen, thut tho two territories
have been so organized and modelled a to throw
Kansas, with its bulk of Indian reservations, just
athwart tho central portion of Missouri ; that the
privilego of extinguishing Indian titles, without
delay, has been granted in Nebraska and refused
in Kansas; that tho wholo Chcrukcd country has
been purposely led out of tlio latter territory, nnd
tho hopo of whito settlement there indefinitely
postponed for want of a government; nnd that lo
tho tail of tho whole is tacked a new fanaticism.
And can any citizen of Missouri fail to apprehend
in an instant, the drift of this dovetailed, system
atic, contemporaneous movement 7 Doc it not
flash upon tlio intolligonco of every one, that it is
a blow aiinesl at the odvnno ef the growing West r
that it is a fraudulent attempt to deprive tho oiti
xens of this slnto of all tho advantages of entering
at onco upon the rich vallies of tho Missouri, the
(vnnsas, the Aoosho and that it is a deliberate
design to defeat every pussiblo chanco of centering
the Pacific railroad through any part of Missouri.
A rival statu is to be speedily peopled in the north,
by tho oarly extension of the sottlcinont of Ne
braska, which is to competo with Kansas and with
Missouri for tltt route to the ocean, nnd thus that
prominence we have ulready acquired by our libe
ral policy of iutoruul improvement is to be uagativod.
Tho Indians who now occupy the richest lands on
our border nnd far into the interior, will, if suffer
ed to remain any length of time, a is now the
foreshadowed pjlicy, cli'cetually prevent tho exten
sion of the Saint Joseph and Hannibal, as nlso tho
Kansas branch of the Pacific railroad, nnd tho ob

themes upon tho following subject;
'Is it posoiblo to replace slave labor by froo la

if so, what can bo suggested as tlio best means to

The themes must havo tho initials of tho author
or any other sign (but not the nnmc), and nro to

prior to the Oth of May, accompanied by another
letter sealed, bearing on tho ouuido tho initials or

selected as tho best, and thoso who shall obtain nn

letters opened, and then tho names of their authors
will be nflixed to tho several composition. The
author of that one which shall bo selected a the

DEMOCRATIC GALLANTRY.
It is the long established policy of American
politician tn class thoir wives, mothers, nnd color
ed hoot black in the sumo list, and dispose of the
claims of all in a single sentonce.
Thus, the clause, "white mnlo citizens" In our
constitution, serves to protect tho ballot box from
"Nogroes, Women and Indians." It now appears
that this policy is not only to bo carried out, but
like slavery, is to bo extended nf infinitum at lonst
so the Democrats of Pennsylvania have resolved.
