But will it be seriously contended, that because licen tiousness exists, and some married men even have illegitimate children, that, therefore, polygamy and concubinage should be legalized ? And, if they are so 3: K o ccs ol.chmate, brought out their own sys " i terns of society.

But if ho be really thocnual of the white man, why shall ho not become a brother i in-law or a son-in-law ? To say that lie is our equal, and yet deny him thene privi- w ! leges, is indeed a prejutlicn such ns no ab fei olitionist ought to bo guilty of. The fact S ; of his inequality has lately been decided in the most emphatic manner. A great, pro- grcssive, dominant party, Hushed with re ' cent successes, sought to advanco the ne- gro to equality with tho Caucasian race. j Tho forco of party power is well under : stood in this couutry.

C, ) January 1, 18C8. f Oentlimkn : Your favor has just reached me, and I greatly regret that pressing busi ness eluewhere will prevent my being pres ent with you on the interesting celebration of tho 8th instant. There are some passa ges in your letter painfully interesting to every patriotic mind, as contrasting the present with tho past of 1815. We must distinguish between the questions settled j by the late civil War and those left for decis- j ion. The result of the war determined that the negroes should all bo free, but it has not decided that they are capable of becoming the political and social equals of tho white race. If, for instance, it be true that the negro has a brain eleven cubio inches less than that of the white man, will any one pretend that the result of tho war has enlarged his brain 7 A Roman empe ror once made his horso a consul, but though that decree was potent to invett the quadruped with the insigtii of office, Jet was it ever supposed that the nature of lorees was thereby so changed as to fit them to dischargo the duties of civil ma gistrates? So, the question still remains for the American people to decido : Are the negroes qualified as equals of the white men to form a political nnion and social amalgamation with them? Prominent advocates of negro equality have lately declared, in view of the recent popular verdicts, that tho white people were prejudiced against the negro. How singular and extraordinary a mistake they make 1 Tho people of tho United States have less prejudice against the negro than any other portion of tho civilized world. A juror, before he had heard the evidence in a case, if ho should form an opinion, might prejudge the case, or be prejudiced. After he had investigated it, his opinion would be ft conviction, not a prejudice. The people of ihe United States know the ne gro better than any other civilized race does, and their opinion of him is not a prejudice, but a well-settled conviction. There is a prejudice on the subject of tho negro, for example, in England. The people there have formed their opinions on tho mbject from the reading of such novels as the "Uncle Tom's Cabin" of Mrs Stowe ; and such opinions, being formed in entire ignorance of the facts, are properly to bo termed prejudices. The friends of the negro havo dono all in their power to keep up these delusions by exclaiming against tho injustice of pro scribing a man on account of his color. If that were in fact tho only difference be tween the negro and tho white man, they would be in tho right! No flaxen-haired and blue-eyed Saxon over objected to tho raven locks and black eyes of tho French, Italians, or Spaniards, j Marriages are just as likely to occur between persons of oppo site complexions as among those alike in these respects. It is well understood that all these varieties of the Caucasian race are substantially similar in 1 mind, heart, and body, and, therefore, these several shades of complexions are known to be immate rial. So, if the negro wore intellectually and morally the equal of the Caucasian, his complexion would bo of no more conse quence than t e color ! of tho coat a man might wear. A black skin and woolly head, however, are indications of a mental, mor al, and bodily organization which charac terizes a certain variety of the human race. In like manner, the long ear of tho mulo indicates a quadruped different from the horse; but no one supposes that if tho cars of tho mule were trimmed down to the sizo of the horse's, his speed would thereby be increased. The prayer of Wendell Phil lips, that the negroes might all turn white some ono of these nights, is as absurd as would be a wish that the ears of all mules ahould suddenly bcoome small, in the hopo that thereby they might prove the equals H racers oi me blood horse. It is true that the color of the nogro'g . ikin was regarded as inherent in his na ture when the fables of iEsop were pub lished, when the Book of Jobe was written, and when the carvings and pictures on the Egyptian monuments were made, and his complexion and form are thoro, as depict ed, invariably associated with a servile con dition. The Caucasian and the negro were both placed by Providence in the climate best suited to their respective natnrn nd while the career of the former is known to nutory, the condition oz the latter in his native country bos not been materially i he ought to bo permitted to vote, the reply ! would bo that boys of fifteen years of age were not generally intelligent enough to be trusted with the right of suffrage. But does any ono disputo the fact that tho white boys of fifteen years of age aro as intelli gent and quite as moral as arc tho general ity of negroes ? It is often said, however, that th ne groes aided ho armies of the United States in suppressing the rebellion, and, there fore, they ought to be rewarded with the right of suffrage. It is true that they ren dered Borne aid in this way, butjit is unde niable that they afforded much greater aid to tho cause of the Confederates. They not only worked patiently in the fields, but also served faithfully as laborers in camp, rejoiced over victories and when prisoners came in, and never in a singlo instance, in niy knowledgo, deserted to tho opposite Bido. It is true, that as horses w hich were rampant rebels under John Morgan became loyal to tho Union under Ueneral btono- man, bo negroes, whenever they came into ttie possession oi me uuiicu siaios armies, showed themselves loyal. The conduct of the negro race during the entire war show ed most strikingly the difference between it and the Caucasian. In many localities they outnumbered tho white men ten, per haps twenty, to one, and by rising could have made themseives most lormidabie. They did not, however, ever march off in j large bodies, as they might have done, to join those who invited them to become free. What would bo the result if a trium phant liberating army like that of Grant or Sherman were to march through Ireland or Poland ? Would not the able-bodied men rise en masse to welcome and aid them ? The contrary conduct of tho negroes show ed conclusively the difference between the races. Tho negroes themselves are full con scious of their inferiority, and hence, where they have the control, deny the the white man not only political privileges, but even the right to hold property. A paper devo ted to the negro cause, published in New York, justifies this exclusion, saying that it was because the white man was arrogant and domineering in his disposition. But does not this admission destroy the case made for the negro entirely ? The fact that the lion is rapacious and tyrannical is doubtless a good reason why the deer should not wish him to come among them ; but is it not an equally valid objection to the pro ject of making a community of deer and lions ? All observation goes to show that tho mental and moral endowments of tho nggro aro not such as enable him to com pete with the white man. The small brained Hindoo established iuj India a 6tato of civilization immensely superior to anything shown by the negro ; and yet a comparatively small number of Englishmen hold them in absolute subjection. Less than ono hundred thousand Britons have subjugated and hold in slavery more than ono hundred millions of Hindoos. In other words, each Englishman conquers more than one thousand East Indians. Does any ono doubt that one hundred thousand white Americana could subjugate all tho negroes on the globe, if they inhabited a country not more unhealthy for tho Cauca sian than Hindostan i ? Nor can tho negro raco bo preserved by amalgamation with tho white. Though tho mulatto is moro intelligent, he has lets con stitution thau the negro, and becomes ex tinct in a few generations ; for nature in this, as in other instances, forbids hybiid ity. Why should the superior white race corrupt its blood and cripple itself, while the inferior raco is thus annihilated ? Even if tho Caucasians here aro too nnmcrous to bo destroyed, why should tho race be thus weakened ? On the other hand, if tho ne groes be constituted into a separate com munity, is thero is any certainty that they would exist outsido oi the tropics 7 ill they produco in summer enough to sustain however, why not let people decide these matters for themselves, and do as they pleaso ? But people are not allowed even to gamble or get drunk at will, and yet these are f-mall evils compared with such misccgenage. Christian nations do not allow near'blood relations, such as broth ers and Bisters, parents and children, to in termarry, and yet there is more evidence against tho mischiefs of such connections than there is of the destructiveness io both races of a mixture of blood between the whites and blacks ? And if social equality bo wrong, and mitscegenage ruinous, why should there be an effort to produce them by bringing the parties in contact in hotels, sehoojsfand elsewhere ? Would the honest white people of the North consent to legis lation which compelled them to ktep their children in contact with thiev3 and pros titutes ? And would not the tendency of such contact be demoralizing ? If, then, social equality and mixture of blood be tween tiio white and biacK races Do mis chievous, ought the forco of legislation to bejised to promote them ? Even tho " so-called while men" who be lieve in negro superiority ought not to wish that Buperiority lost by a mixture with an inferior white race. Is it not clear, how ever, that whichever of the two races is to be considered the superior, they are at leait so tlmerent that they cannot constitute jointly a prosperous community ? It may be a matter of doubt whether the hog or the sheep is the superior animal, but no farmer would attempt to herd and feed them to gether. . -It is idlo to say that in some of the States negroes havo had equal privileges with the white race. They are not there numerous enough to make a contest or affect sensibly the community. If all the insane persons in the United States were allowed to vote, their numbers are not sufficient to make any appreciable change in the political or social condition of the country. But if one-half the population of Massachusetts were negroes, with equal rights, society comu not exist tnere, except oy such a mixture of the two races as would in- a few generations destroy tho community. If, then, it bo impracticable to constitute a community jointly of whito and black men as equals, we aro brought to the great question : Which is to give way to the other in the United Stated? Tho whito race voluntarily came . hero from a love of liberty, and established their own political 1 l i mi ana social system. i.ne negroes were brought here without their own consent, They havo merely a right to expect and re quire, npon principles of justice, that those who brought them hero should not leave them in a worse condition than they were found in. Granting this, does any one doubt that tho whole negro race within the United States is, physically and intellec tually, in a much better condition than they wouiu have boen u never removed from their own country ? Are tho whito citizens of the United States under obligations to go further than this ? Especially, are they under obligations to cripple themselves as a nation, ana aestroy lor an nseiul pur poses a largo section of as valcablo territory as is containoi within the limits of the Union ? Let it bo remembered, that to liberate these negroes tho people of the United . States, both North and South- when we consider tho debts created, the property destroyed, the time lost, and a million of able-bodied men killed or dis abled, so as to havo become non-producers have thus sacrificed value to the extent of not less, probably, than ten thousand million dollars. Is it necessary further than this that our political and social sys tem should be destroyed, or even seriously endangered ? Is the rich valley ' of the Lower Mississippi, whioh Jefferson acquired and Jackson defended, to be converted into a second Hayti, to the lasting disap pointment of the people of the whole Mis sissippi vauey, who were once so anxious for its acquisition ? Even now. within sight of the. Capitol, the legislative and military power of tho Republic is being most strenuously exerted to Africanize the State which gave to the country Washing ton, Jefferson, Madison, Marshall, Clay, Taylor, and Scott. Whila all the other civilized nations of tho earth; are doing their utmost to rise m the scale ot pros perity, intelligence, and morality, this mighty Republic is devoting its vast powers earnestly and vigorously to the task of de grading a large portion of its territory to the condition oi Lngo and Guinea. It is said, however, that if suffrage is not generally conferred on tho negroes their rights of property and person will not be protected. Widows and minors often have suits in our courts, out was it ever snp- poeed they could not obtain justice because half the jurors were not women or boys ? a - it m iuy own ODservanons oi tne course oi our courts in North Carolina formerly, does not allow me to doubt that the white jurors of the country would deal fairly with the negro. If suffrage should be given to the negroes, based on such a property qualification as i3 established in the State of Nw York, it would present two important considerations. In the hrst place, tho voters would probably bo the most industrious und intelligent of their nice ; and, secondly, their numbers would not be so large as to prevent tho whito race from controlling tho legislation and shaping the destiny of tho country. It seems almost needless for mo to say that I entertain no feelings of hostility to the negro. Having been kindly nursed by them in childhood, in sicknees, and when suner ing from wounds, wore the power given me, I would make them in all things Cuucas- lans. Juut as tuo ways oi x'rovidence are wiser than the imaginations of men, so His laws aro too mignty to oo set aside or changed by human efforts, and true wisdom consists in acting in accordance with them I have thus, gentlemen, I fear at perhaps too creat length, discussed that ouestion AN IMPORTANT ORDER.
