The blacks set great store, now. by education!.
They think their ignorance is bad t n them, and

bad too, particularly, on the better-classes of

some great wrong to a black, the negroes, I must
do them justice, are apt to forget that ' there
are many good white people, and fall to abusing
the whoU xchite mce. And when some mean
black commits 'an outrage on a white, if the
negroes hear white men abue the whole negro
race without exception, they conclude at once
that those white men would not act so unreason
ably if they were not the enemies of the whole
black race. The negro would be found to vote
for Southern men, for men of propertyand in
telligence, but at the aame'tne the negro feels
that his right to vote is Ms 'greatest security
against oppression,; and he Js more apt to vote
for a mean white man who pledges himself to
defend the suffrage, than; for the best .white
citizen in the State, who refuses to promise that
he will oppose the taking away of a right so dear
