Reconstruction. —If, after bestowing suffrage, by com
pulsion, on the negro, we are further required to admit
him to the jury-box, and render him eligible to office, it is
very evident to us that our people w ill prefer remaining
under military rule to all eternity, to accepting any such
Constitution. It is bad enough to bestow the right of
suffrage on a semi-civilized race who, in their best estate,
seldom attain the average capacity of w hite boys fifteen years
old ; and it need not be expected that we shall, by our
own action, admit them to responsible posts —certainly
not, while at the North they cannot even vote without a
property or educational qualification. Why should all
these radical experiments be tried first on us ? Do these
political quacks take their own physic? Why not experi
ment with negro voters and office-holders on a small scale
among themselves, and see how they like it? We were
never famous for possessing more patience and good tem
per, or less pride of race, than the rest of mankind.
23f” We must apologise to several of our advertising
friends, whose favors we have been compelled to let lie
over this month.
