At no pHl, lnc the organisation of
th government of the SUM, has t General
Assembly Biet, burdened with so great a
responsibility, aor mm whose duties required
so much ability, wimtotn aad virtue, is the
one wbteh assemble st thecal! of "Governor

" ' tntlligeiicct -bseaaac Cia"-'w mm&itm
sod virtuous and iotelllgep't, have gone he
lore there, but (be work belore the incoming
Legislature is, nevertheless, onerous and of
the highest responsibility.
It ii no affectation, when we say, that we
would rejoice ii tboM elected, and to whom
seat will be allowed, Were eminently capa
ble ol discharging their obligation, Hut
wo remember that the ablest and most fit
roes to perioral the work of legUlation, at
this period, are among tbe disfranchised
class, whom partixau malignity may not
admit lo the seats tor which I hey hare been
chosen.
Tbe revision and proper modification ol
the laws admitted to be in existence, lt
which will require arrangement, Ac., will
demand a very able committee, aiul oue
every way industrious and capable, but
which the material of tbe body will find it
difficult to supply from tinier claimed to lie
"truly loil."
Tbe untoVtunate, ana, m wrbWUTC, the
very unnecessary and vexatioua, cbstige ef
fected in the rule and practice of tbe t'onrts,
destroying at distinction between the
Courts of Law and Equity, will require great
lIr and cause much difficulty. So tar as
we hav heard tbe opinion ol the ablest
lawyers and jurists in the 8latt. there is on
noaaliBOU' Vapprival of ttii (V ature nt

fitber the bet book lor, fputhscn tourists

how to go, aud bow much the going will
cost yon. Person coming Worth snd wish
ing to nwke trips, out ot New York, "should
first of all procure tbi hook.
But my chief object In writing is tn take
npon myself, in advance, any blame that
belong to tb North Carolina portion ol
the book. At a time when a great pressure
WM ttpea at M4 mf-'kMUU w ftaat, Mt,
Swaetser nrged me to prepare something;
about my own State. It wa done hastily
and could not be mad so full m 1 desire,
but it may induce some Northern tourist lo
go over the line indicated, and I am sure
that it require only a few Intelligent trav
eler to create n Interest in North Carotin
to render it a great resort. Bo msiiy changes
bsve been wrought by the war, that much
which I should have written has been omit
ted, bscause I tied no certs! iL.knowlediL
For Instance, I knew nothing id tthoccn

to contest the rulership with tb African.
Tbe contest ranitot last many year ; and
the darker and inferior race must go the
wall. This point has already bad ll influ
iticu uin the negroes In some parts ol the
State, eM-cil!y within twenty miles ot tbla
Oermautown. In thoM localltie, negroes
are joining political leagues with the white,

The radical sclieme of subjecting the
Southern States to the control ot black tote
ha the double iniquity ol heaping instant
wrong on one race and prepaying , ultimate
ruin lor the other. This is seen and admit
ted by every Intelligent snd esndid North
ere te who rtlmrrree t he exeesMre tength
to which the negroes, under radical Incite
mint, are doposed to earry tbe exercise of
political righta. and it begins to be seen by
every well mlvrnicd colored man who re
flects on tile numerical relation, present end
prospective, Iwtween the whit end black
populations. Tbe average preponderance,
in the aliol South, of white over blacks,
is nt this time hardly lea than the broouf
tM.ofJmri'4jift
at large the number of negroes doe not ex
ccsjd tour millions, while there I a total
population o! about forty millions. Assum
ing tliu uxtrcinely doutftiul prepoei tion that
the natural Increase of the two race will be
cijual, the ratio nl blaokt to white must re
latively decrease from year to year under
the etlcct of immigration which will bring
accession to the white and none to tbe
blacks. And alter no great lapee of time,
thia relative decrees must reduce the negro
element from one-tenth ia the entire country
to about one-twentieth, and from ooc
tbird iu the entire South to Uout on fifth or
sixth. Now, ll tt Southern negroe ahould
an tiereaftet 1 afieordahcl wltfi the politi
cal tuition which they hav already received
lioin the radical, they will toaiat on offaot
ting the larger lucre ot th white by
disfranchising a corresponding number of
the Utter population. Dislranchisemect
for tbe purpot putting the tdaefcs ia po
tifloal ascendency, is precisely what radical
legislation has done st tbe outset, end It I
need not be surprising If th American pu
pil of radicalism extend' that example Into
a ttled policy which they will" purs at
all hazards to the bitter sequel The fart
is, they cannot accept the radical theory of
negro suffrage without declaring a political
wai against race, snd that to the utterance.
For this theory aasuuiks that there 1 aa

the white to the rights ami tntcreete nf tb
