Tba Races in the South. ; .
A. Charleston (?.G) correspotdent
of a Boston paper writes that 'the
wQrpt sign her?, in Charleston, is the
growth ot a bitter and hostile spirit
between blacks and whites-a gap
opening between the races which, it
would .seem, may at some time result
seriously." The blarqe for this state of
things is attributed by some to the
whites, by others to the negroes, by
others to Boston busybodies, who have
gone South and stirred" up animosities
of race.
There in no doubt whatever that
there is very* great danger in the
future to the blacks of the Southern
States from the antagonism of the two
races which inhabit* them. In every
respect the whites are the dominant
race, and would remain so though the
negroes had the ballot to-morrow.
They urns dominant as regards numbers,
.being more than twice a? numerous as.
the blacks throughout the late slave
-States. In consequence of this" they
will be dominant as reg?rds political
power; they will be dominant also as
regards the possession* of real estate
and capital. So far as controlling
intellect, nervous energy, ambition,
education, self-possession and self*
dependence constitute elemeuts of
dominancy, they will be with the
whites. So far as tbe power of a
dominant race is increased by the
exercise ot power, rmd by the posses?
sion of hereditary -and historical free?
dom, in opposition to inherited and
inherent servility, by so much also
will the continued supremacy of the
white race in the South be guaran?
teed. Some of these features of char?
acter and condition may be changed iii
the cours? of ages; but the ages come
.around slowly.
Under these circumstances, or under
any circumstances whatever, it ^ma?
lignant and criminal on the part of
anybody, and especially on the part of
those who claim to be the exclusive
advocates and admirers of the negro
race, to stir up such feelings, or inau?
gurate such courses of action aftd
policy, as will increase the growth of
the 'bitter and hostile spirit between
the blacks and whites,' which, we are
- told, is showing itself in the South.
The negroes of the South, who were
lately slaves, are very credulous, and
can easily be made to believe that the
whites are their enemies, and that |
everything they do, or attempt to do, ?
with reference to the blacks is done
for the purpose of injuring them. They j
will be made thievish, if perpetually
told that "their late masters lived by
plundering them; will be made indo*
lent if daily, told that their waojes are
too little; will become insolent if taught
to be so; aiyl will be transformed into
a vast body of worthlessness, degrada- \
tion and wretchedness, unless they are ;
/aught the duties of their new po- j
sitiot;, and unless these duties are
sternly enforced.
Nothing would be easier than to
increase and extend the antagonism of
race in tb? Sooth. It is strong enough
already; but it is still within bounds.
By the efforts of good 'men, and by t he
continued labors of the Christian
*"pulpit and the patriotic press, it might
be transformed and improved until
permanent relations of good will be?
tween the two races were established.
If it is to be otherwise-if hatreds are
to be engendered-it will take much
less than a century to produce a war
of races* in which the doom of the
unfortunate blacks need not be forecast.
[New York Times, July ll.
Charles Lamb was in the habit of
wearing a white cravat,' and in conse?
quence was sometimes taken for |a
clergyman. Once at a dinner table,
among a large' number - of guests, his
white cravat caused such a mistake to
he made, and he was called on to j
say graces. Looking up and down
the table he asked, in his inimitable,
lisping manner, MIs there no clergy?
man present "No, ?ir," answered a
"guest. "Tb-then," said Lamb, bow
ng his head, "let us thank God.*'
Hon. Pierre Soule, late of Louisiana,
has opened a law office in the City of
. Mexico. He has lived, the past year,
on a plantation near Puebla, but
found retirement unsuited to his active
nature, and moved to the Capital,
where he will bo likely to take part in
YIt,vimilis;i\. Government
- Th? Negro Population.
' The Black Republican, a paper
very well edited by a black clergyman
at New Orleans, contains a-correspon?
dence between a committee of the
freedmen and the editor, on the pros?
pects of the black, population of the
South. From the reply of the editor
we copy tho following paragraphs:
The colored man and the white man
cannot live together in this country;
they must and will have to separate,
unless the Congress of the Nation
shall give them a place to themselves,
for as it was wirh Abraham and Lot,
so it is with us, the sooner we seek a
home for our rising generation, the
better it will be for us.
Our final destin}', as far as I can
dimly see. is that in three huudred
years it will be"a rare thing to see a
colored man in this country. Like
the Indian, our race in this country is
destined to become extinct, unless we
move to ourselves. And alter we
sha1! have obtained the right of suf?
frage, 1 shall strongly advocate a
treaty stipulation between the United
States and our race, whereby we may
live under the LTnited States flag, but
be apart to ourselves, and even then
we become dissatisfied, for there is no
historian that can point out an instance
where two nations have ever lived
together happily.
One power must rule, and the other
will not be pleased; and if we don't
separate, iu less than three hundred
years the colored man in this country
will be a color between the Canadian
Indian and the inhabitants of India.
This country, gentlemen, is not ours, in
my opinion, and as the question hat
been asked by a party of freedmen,
the above is my answer to the same.
I could write a work upon this ques?
tion, had I the means to put it in
circulation.
The immigration of the white race
from Europe must increase, whilst tb?
immigration of the black race musl
decease, as the slave trade has beer,
stopped, and the result is the A fricar
race in this couutry will finally rut
out, and all the property wo mai
accumulate for our rising generatior
will avail us nothing unless we obtair
a resting-p.lace of our own. Moreover
experience teaches that no two race?
car^ live together happily under om
flag when they both are properly edu
caled. Therefore, gentlemen, my im
partial opinion is, that this country it
not our home.
