Negro stiff rae was the eventual, logical c nse quence of negro citizenship ; as'last as the f lack man became tilted by p,rtuuity, oliservatinn, and educst on, and, inn rest, to tote, that piivllege would have bi en i Uuded to bira without Congressional in teHerence, or tbe applicstion ni lawless toice,' Tbe negro, as everybody knows, lias not had opportuniiies to biin lelf for a legislator ; this is true, wheth er It was right or wrong ; he was not fitttd to vote by leaaon of education, observation or expeiience, or in any other w.ey. This was his misfortune, not his crime. The white peopl wanted to tit biui f ir all the privileges of citizenship and then invest him witb them; tufa was hot. est and pru-. dent.

It is stateal that the Wheeling lit4ligttr, the loading Kadical paper of West Vir ginia, advocates the removal of suffrage restrictions trom ex Contcderales. To do this, an aitlendmect of the Constitution of ibis mals to-order Ktate is nicessarj4, said restriction being a, part of thefundainoutal law. and tbns reading! 'No person, whor atone the first day ol June, lSol.has given or shall give voluntary aid or assistance to tlie rebellion sgatrrst tbe United StAfi-s, shall be a citizen of this mate, or lie allowed to vote at any election held therein, unless be has volunteered into the military or naval seiVees of the I nilid Slates, and has been or ihall l.e houoratjly discharged tha n from." I uder this provision, (he voting popula tion of West Virginia is, as may lie readily imagined, highly loil ; so loil, in fact, that we are led to fancy (bat it will be a matter of sonre difficulty for the Wheeling lnUUi gmetr to have Hs Mieralmttg pro;isition meet aici pisncu. Under the West Virginia constitution, it ia nioeasary, in order to have a constitutional convention, tbat the Legis lature should first pae a law, "by the atUrmati ve votes of a majority of the mem bers elected to each branch, that the polls be opened lor tbe Mipte to vote, wbutVr they deal re suets eonventloa or DO. Iff ecu v co trim, then, second ehciion lor dele gales thereto is to be bold ; and then, OB tli adjournment thereof, still a third popu lar election it to lie had lo deter mine whether the action ot the convention ia to be ratified or r iucted.
