Tho mawkish philanthropy "tliat makes him just now the object' of interest, arises mainly from & eelfhh political aim. Tliis purpose gives not a moment's thought to tho welfareor advancement of the tiegro. Its only aim is to use him as a tool to gain or maintain power. This will bo transitory and evanescent. When the occasion shaH hayo passed, the- negro will be-lett as ho is now, to work and strive alone against his adverse and inexorable fate. With these facta certainly existing, and these prospects awaiting Jiira In the future, stirelv it cannot ho for tho best interest of the colored ;uan to remain here and encounter them for ever; at leafct, when ho Is offered a home and a country wher none of these deeradiiwr conditions await him; a home where every advantage that the white man en joys will he freely bestowed upon-hira"; where every -civil and political right that you and I noseciw, will be his in as full and perfect a manner as thmost fayprd of our race; a home where all the art and appli ances that render life .happy, mav be ob tained with equal, if not greater 'facility than they can be, procured in this coontrv; where abundant harvests crown the labor (jf $5 husbandman, and where aU the riches pf the tropica are emptied, alavoat upsanght, into the lap of the laborer, (jfj this country and those advantages, I propose to speak hereafter; at present I desire to show you that it is, also, to the interest of the white race that the negro should be separated from amongst us.
