>AVANXAH, TUESDAY XOVEMBKR 2-,
THK NEGRO St RKRAUK gt'ESTIOI.
We have been led to the consideration of
this absorbing question again,by the authorita
tive announcement, emanating from an Ameri
can United States Senator, Mr. Doolittle,
that Generals Grant and Sherman agree with
him in the opinion that the process of forc
ing the election franchise on the Freedmen
„f the South by Congressional interference
would inevitably involve a war of races,
which might entail a civil war of wider di
mensions even than the last. The convic
tions of these distinguished Generals must be
sustained by all wise and thoughtful men
acquainted with the subject. They hold,
' says Mr. Doolittle, to the doctrine of Mr.
Jefferson, as announced by himself :
“Tnat nothing is more certainly written
in the book of late than that these people
(the negroes) are to be free ; nor is it less
certain that the two races, aqualty free, can
not live in the same Government—nature,
habit, opinions have drawn indelible lines of
distinction between them. It is still in our
power to direct the process of Emancipa
tion, and in such slow degree as that the
evil will wear off insensibly, and their place
be pan passu filled up by tree white labor
ers. If, on the contrary, it is left to force
itself, our human nature must shudder at the
prospect held up. We should in vain look
for an example in the Spanish deportations
or depletion of the Moors.”
The gentlemen, and South, holding
extreme views on this subject, are, id our
humbld opinion, by the policy they advo
cate bringihg injury rather than benefit tipftQ
■a race they profess an abiding friendship for.
Some of them are undoubtedly honest in
their convictions; but the majority,
. are of opine, unquestionably have polit
ical axes to grind, and the Freedmen shall,
nolens volens turn the grind stone no matter
"how much it wearies his back or tires his
arms. <*
The fortune of war has bestowed freedom
upon three or four millions of human beings
previously held is slavery. This fact is ac
cepted without murmer or question by the
white population of the South, and they, at
least, are honestly striving to do the best
they can with the circumstances that sur
round t'iem, and are working loyally and
truly U> restore the country to a condition of
thrilt and prosperity. Probably not more
than one out of every hundred of the
blacks thus made free are capable
of appreciating either the duties or
meeting the responsibilities of freedom.—
They have not had the opportunity of pas 2
iog through a probationary term—no time
in which to prepare for the great change,
was allowed them. In an instant their poli
tical status was changed, and they were
thrust upon the world to take care of them
selves as best they could, with the vague idea
running through their heads that their em
ancipation meant freedom from labor, free
dom from responsibility, with illimitable
supplies of everything to eat, drink and
wear. How sadly they were disappointed
in their hopes, and how wofully they failed
try meet the expectations of their especial,
self-constituted friends, is well known to, and
generally acknowledged by intelligent and
candid Federal officers who have been in
command in various parts of the Southern
States. Thinking men, and even intelligent
freedmen with whom we have conversed, '
knew how it would be, and grieved over
acts they only anticipated, but they also |
knew that time and experience alone would
settle the question.
Th«se who are truly and conscientiously
desirious to promote the well-being of the
Freedmen of the South, as we are, know that
the first thing to be done is to
educate them in the arts ot labor and the
•various occupations—to train them up to
habits of industry and self-reliance—so that
they uiay hereafter be able to take care of
themselves and their families. Heretofore
everything has been provided for them and
their families, which has, necessarily, begot
ten a teeling of dependence and precluded
that free thought and action so essential for
success in the departments of industry. Here
after they must support, by their labor, under
self direct ion, hot only themselves, but all
•who are dependent upon tbem. This is a
fearful responsibility to devolve all at once,
upon the uneducated, inexperienced Freed
man —a man in years and strength, but an,
infant so far as knowledge of the ways ot the
world is concerned ; and uqjess he is taught
by those in authority as well as the people,
and aided in many ways and at all seasons,
the boon of freedom which has been conferred
upon him will become a direful aud tremen-
dous curse, not only to bimselt and his pos
terity, but to the whole country. Yet in the
face of indisputable facts like these —in the
face of the great truth demonstrated at hun
dreds ot military posts throughout the coun
try, and at thousands of other places, that
the Freedmen as a mass, are as yet, incom
petent, from a lack of knowledge, to support
themselves honestly by their own labor;
that thousands are yet supported by the Gov
ernment aod scores ot thousands by private
individuals; that notwithstanding all this
public and private aid, an immense amount
of suffering exists among them, which is de
pleting their numbers at a frightful rate , and
in lace of the incontrovertible truth that
■while in the transition state they are now
passing through, they need and are entitled
to the sympathy of ail true philanthropists
to enable tbem to surmount the difficulties
. and responsibilities of their new position to
meet which they ate comparatively feeble
and helpleS3, it is gravely proposed toim
pose new burdens, additional responsibilities,
t and serious duties upon them, by compelling
! them to accept the right of suffrage. To this
ad thoughtful and patriotic men should be
opposed, tor the present at least. It will lie
time enough to discuss this part of the ques
lion years hence, when the improving iu
tlneoces of experience have demonstrated
l. that the Freedman have become sufficiently
l advanced uud educated in the various avocu-
tious us industry to enable tbem to cam an
H honest living by tbuir own hands, just as

LITKHARY
Commercial Periodicals — Commercial ami
Financial Chronicle.—We have before called
attention to this able Periodical published
weekly in New York, by Wm. B. Dana &
Cos. The number before us issued on the
18th, is highly interesting in its remarks on
financial topics. The articles on “I’he De
cline in Government Securities,” on “Cur
leney Depreciation and the Gold Notes and
on the Southern States' Debts” are marked
!>y sound knowledge of principles and ample
information. The variety of statistical de
tails must recommend it to the general reader
while the view presented of the slate of the
New York markets must give it special value
to mercantile men in all parts of the country.
Merchant's Marfa tine for November. —This
Periodical well sustains the reputation it en
joyed under the Editorship of Freeman Hunt,
both tor the fullness of its fiuancial and com
mercial information, and the general pertin
ence and propriety ol its original remarks on
the phenomena of finance and trade.
the hew EMUASSV to MEXICO.
Recent events, such as the late appoint
ment of a full Minister to the “Republic of
Mexico,” in the person of General Logan—
the forthcoming of certain military and naval
orders that are said to be in process of exe
cution—the emphatic public endorsement by
General Grant in New York, a few days
since, of the remark that “ fouler wroDgs
never outraged human rights than the pre
sent occupatiou of Mexico by the French,”
seems to make it certain that the Adminis
tration is determined to assume a positive
attitude upon the subject ot the Monroe doc
trine.
If we may judge from the late utterances
of the new Minister he is likely to prove a
troublesome envoy for Maximillian. He is
not accredited to the Emperor's Government
but to that of Juarez. Yet in his capacity
of American Minister be may claim the right
of transit through anv part of the country,
and should Maximilian interfere to prevent
an interview with the Republican Chief he
will thus provoke a declaraton of hostilities 1
by the American Government, which would
make the latter the active ally of the former
and his Republicans.
Maximilian has lately declared that oppo
sition to his government is practically at an
end; that the leaders ot the “rebels” has
abandoned Mexican soil, and that the small
and scattered bands still in arms, are rob
bers, who are not entitled to the rights of
war, and are to be executed, on the instant
when captured.
In view of these facts the appointment of
Geu. Logan is highly significant. He, in his
Brooklyn speech on the 3d inslant, said if he
were President “be would order the Fremch
out of Mexico in a hurry, and he believed
they would go.” Immediately after this
speech was made the speaker found himself
gazetted a Minister resident to Mexico.
The President evidently made the appoint
ment because be approved the sentiments
uttered by Gen. Logan. Very likely it is ex
pected that the takiug of this attitude will of
itself work out the desired result; but every
fact indicates tbqt tbe Washington Govern
ment means to enforce tbe Mouroe Doctrine
in the case of Mexico, no matter what may
be the consequences.
—The Charleston Courier has returned
into the hands of its old owners, Messrs. A.
8. Willington & Cos. Iu a card to the pub
lic the proprietors express their “deep sense
of the high tone and honorable conduct of
Mr. Geo. Wbittemore, under whose more
immediate supervision the paper has for
some rime been. Olten occupying' an em
barrassing and delicate position, it is but
simple justice to say that he has acted with
fidelity and regard for the interests of its
proprietors which command our acknowl
edgements.”
Mr. Geo. Wbittemore is the correspondent
of the New York Times, to whom the paper
was assigned upon the occupation of the
city by the Federal forces.

THE Xltt YORK NfMftPAL ILKC<
TIOS.
The triangular contest for tbe Mayoralty of
the citv of New York, seems to he a matter
of some interest in that vicinity, if we may
judge from the number of candidates already
|in the field. The Democracy glorying in
j their strength, have two distinguished men
' in nomination; Jno. T. Hoffman and the
1 present incumbent, Mr. Gunther. The Ke
publicana hacked by disaffected Democrats,
I hoping to achieve success through the di
( vison of the Democracy, have presented the
| name of Mr. Hccker, who had beeu previ
ously nominated by the Citizen's Association.
The fight is complicated, hut a'tractive, and
the result will he looked for with interest.
Much doubt is expressed as to the ability of
the Democracy to carry the city under any
circumstances, hut if the candidates are nu
merous and the party is sidit up into fac
tions, its deteat is almost certain.
Mr John Van Buren, one of the sachems of
the Tammany organization, made a sjteech on
the occasion of the nomination of Mr. Hoff
man, in which be denounced the Mozart
wing ot the party as traitors in disguise, se
cretly co-operating with the Republicans to
break down the gr eat Democratic party of the
city. The denunciation seem*- to be merited,
as this faction, under tbe direction of Fer
nando Wood, have nominated Mr. Hecker,
a Republican, who receives the support of
the Tribune and the party of which it is the
organ.
A Radical on Reconstruction, —Hon. S.
Colfax made a speech on the 18th, in Wash
ington, which may be regarded as an expo
sition of the policy of the radicals, and in
which he attempted to show by references
to the acts of recent Conventions of the
Southeru States, that those States were not
yet prepared for re-admission to the Union.
He declared, first, that their Conventions
should declare the various ordinances of Se
cession null and void—not, as some have
done, merely repealing them —but absolutely
without any force and effect. Second, that
tbeir Legislatures should ratify the Constitu
tional Amendment abolishing slavery. Third,
that they shall formally repudiate the rebel
debt.
He also stated “the terms upon which,”
he thought, “there was no division among
the loyal men of the Union.” These were :
“ First—That the Declaration of Indepen
dence must be recognized as the law ot the
laud, and every man, alien aud native, white
and black, protected in the inalienable and
God given rights of ‘life, liberty and tbe pur
suit oi „appiuess.’ ”
Second—The amendments of their State
Constitutions, which have been adopted by
many of their Conventions so reluctantly,
under the pressure of dispatches from the
President and Secretary of State, should be
ratified by a majority of .their people. We
all know that but a very small portion of
their voters participated in the election of the
delegates to those Conventions, and nearly,
if not all, the Conventions have declared
them in force without any ratification by the
people. When this crisis has passed, can
they not turn around and say that these
were adopted tender duress by delegates
elected by a meager vote under Provisional
Governors and military authorities, .and
never ratified by a popular vote? And could
thav not turn over the anti-Lccompton argu
ment against us and insist, as we did, that a
Constitution not ratified by the people may
have eftect, but uo moral effect whatever.
Third—The President can on all occa
sions insist that they snould elect Congress
man who could take the oath prescribed by
the act of 1862; but, iu defiance of this, and
insulting the President and the country,
they have, in a large majority of instances,
voted down mercilessly Union men who
could take the oath, and elected those who
boasted that they could not, aud would feel
disgraced if they could.
Fourth—While it must be expected Jhat a
minority ot these States will cherish for years,
perhaps, tbeir feelings of disloyalty, tbe
country has a right to expect that before
their members are admitted to a share iu the
government of this country, a majority of
the people of each State should give evi
dence of their earnest aud cheerful loyalty,
not by such speeches as are so common that
they submitted the issue to the arbitrament
of war, hut that they are willing to stand by
aud fight for the flag of the country against
all ils enemies at home or abroad. The
danger now is in too much precipitation.
Let us rather make haste slowly, aud we can
then hope that the foundations of our gov
ernment when thus reconstructed on the
basis of indisputable loyalty, will be as eter
nal as the stars.
Commenting on the above speech the Na
tional Intelligencer says—
It declares that, “translated into simple
words, it means no admission to the South
ern members during the next session of
Congress. If a man lias aided or given com
fort to a rebel soldier, he cannot take the
oath. The South must be- put on
probation and kept on probation. It is
not enough that Congress shall exert its
power to expel any member of treasonable
stamp and utieratices since the war, but the
oath must be insisted on. This, iu effect,
however sugared over is the theory of hold
ing the South with an armed hand on the
basis of reconstruction, as opposed to the
theory of restoration. The adroit attempt
at effecting a compromise between conserva
tism and ultra radicalism is one of Mr. Col
fax’s failures. There is in it more of the
politician than the statesman.”
The Washington correspondent of the
Charleston Courier characterizes the speech
aa a bid for the Speakership, and says it will
most likely be accepted by Congress uotwith
standing the fact that its tone is well under
stood to be more radical than the President's
well-known position. The same writer says:
“There is a little inside history to this
speech, which is regarded as the opening
ball of the campaign, that should be repeat
ed. The remarks which Mr. Colfax deliver
ed, are very different from those which were
subsequently published. The latter were
far less radical than the former. The ver
sion which appears in print was written out
after the delivery of the speech by its author,
and the discrepancy is very marked indeed.
Why there should have been such a sudden
change, is not kuown ; but those who heard
it, and then read the speech in print, are
very capable of commenting upon it. Mr.
Colfax endeavored to see tbe President ou
the day the*epeeeli was to be delivered, but
did not succeed, though, on yesterday, be
had quite an audience witli his Excellency.
There is no defubt but what tbe President
regarded tbe speech as a doubtful approval
of the reconstruction policy of the Adminis
tration, mid that he did not hesitate to tell
the ex-Syenker so.”

***** “This is said to be one of
the strongest seceslt towns in the State. The

ly say they cordially hate northern men —as
much, at any rate, as they ever did. The

We have learned not to be astonished at anything.
Years of experience and a correspondence extending
throughout all nationalities of the habitable globe
have turned theories into facts and established a basis
from which we need not err. We are not surprised
at such fiicts as the following—although the persona
who write them are. We know the persons and cir
cumstances, hence feel at liberty to indorse their
statements;
“Nxw Bedford, Mass., Nov. 24,1563
Dear Sir,—l have been afflicted many years %ith
severe prostrating cramps in my limbs, cold feet and
hands, and a general disordered system. Physicians
and medicines failed to relieve me. While visiting
some friends in New York who were using Plantation
Bitters, they prevailed upon me to try them. I .com
menced with a small wine-glassful after dinner. Feel
ing better by degrees, in a few days I was astonished
to find the coldness and cramps had entirely left me,
and I could sleep the night, through, which l have uot
done for years. I feel like another being. My ajjpe
tite and strength have also greatly improved by the
use of the Plantation Bitters.
Respectfully, Judith Russel.”
Rkedsuury, Wis., Sept 16, 1863.
• * * I have been in the army hospitals for four
teen months—speechless and nearly dead. At Alton,
111., they gave me a bottle of Plantation Bitters. • *
Three bottles restored my speech and cared me. * *
C. A. Flaute."
The following is from the Manager of the Union
Home School lor the Children of Volunteers:
‘•Havemeyeb Mansion, 57th St, |
New York, August 2,1?(63. j
Db. Drake Your wonderiul Plantation Bitters
have been given to some of our little children Battering
from weakness and weak with most happy
effect. One little girl in particular, with pains in her
head, loss of appelite, and daily wasting consumption,
on whom all medical skill had been exhausted, has
been entirely restored. We commenced with but a
teaspoonful ol Bitters a day. Her appetite and
strength rapidly increased, and she is now- well.
Respectfully, Mrs O. M. Dkvoe.”
“• * * I owe much to you, for I verily believe
the Plantation Bitters have saved my life.

Persons of sedentary habits, trqhbled with weak
