Extract jrojn Greeley s Speech
at Poughkeepsie N Y
We publish below, at the request
of a prominent Grant Republican of
this place, an extract from Horace
Greeley's speech made to the negroes
of Poughkeepsie, IN Y., on May 16.
The motive, we presume, that prompt
ed the gentlemen to request the publi
cation of this part of Greeley’s speech
is to prejudice Democrats, against
Greeley, since he is very much
troubled, we think, for fear they will
support him, in preference to his favor
ite Grant. This desire to render
Greeley odious, at this time, comes, we
think, in rather bad grace from him,
since he has been busy for the last
few gears, in promulgating Greeley’s
ideas’ all over Carroll county, by ex
erting himself in extending the circu
lation of the New York Tribune. Now
however, he drops Greeley, seeing
Horace has somewhat repented of lips
ains, and has split off from the Grant
wing of the Republican party, on ac
count of their persecutions of the
South and centralization ideas, and
shows a desire to cement the bonds of
Union, between the different sections
ofthe country, by magnanimous treat
ment of the Southern people. This
looks a little strange to us, from our
stand point, but strange things will oc
cur in this wide world of ours, and in
stead of impugning the gentleman’s
motives, we give him credit for hon
esty in the stand he has taken for
Grant vs. Greeley.
As to the extract from Greeley’s
speech, which the gentleman thinks
such a great, “bugaboo,” to the South
ern people, we do not see anything
very horrible about it We do not
think it commits Greeley, to social
equality with the negro, and even if
it did, we do noj, care the snap of our
finger, what his individual opinions
may be, upon this subject, if he is not
in favor of legislation upon it, like the
Grant Republicans in Congress arc,
and thrusting it upon the people,
whether they desire it or not. That
he is not in favor of this thing, we
would infer from this very extract,
since he tells them plaiuly, that if
even the public opinion of the whites
are for making a distinction against
them, they should accept it, and not
attempt to thrust themselves, where
they are not wanted, and where the
Grant Republicans would put them
any way.
Now we do not put ourselves forward
as the apologisf of Horace Greeley,
or any other Repqblican. If we
should support him in the coming
Presidential contest, it will not be as
our choice, but because we can not
have that, and of two evils wo choose
to take the least. He is infinitely
preferable, in our opinion, ip Grant
and if the contest is narrowed down
to the two, and we have to support
a Republican, we shall most certainly
go for Greeley, unless there should be
quite a change from Grant’s policy,
from what it is now.
But here is the extract to which
the attention of all are invitee}..
A PECULIAR PEOPLE.
“ the next place, we must con
sider the fact that the African people
in our couutry will remain for an in
definite period a peculiar people -
Certainly I trust, that with the outgo
ing of Slavery, and the political
changes necessarily resulting there
from, there will be less antagonism,
less repulsion, between men of differ -
ent races than there formerly was. I
trust the day is not far distant when
the common rights of Blacks in public
conveyances and in public meetings
and institutions will be recognized as
they were not recoguized oj old, and
as they are but imperfectly recogniz
ed still. I trust that their political
equality, lately established, will lead
to a recognition of their equality in
other respects than this; but, after all,
while I desire and expect that invidi
ous and galling distinctions will
gradually fall into disuse, I still be
lifeye that there are differences of race
which political equality will not efface,
but which will remain long after the
memory of Slavery has faded to a
taint tradition.
“Blood is thicker than water,” and
the time will probably never come
when men ot laces so diverse as ours
and theirs will mingle socially with
the same freedom that men oh either
race mingle with fheir people.—
There will always be recognized a de
eded difference, which heed not be
disparity heed not be inequality, but
still a difference. I hope the time
will come when our educational insti
tutions and seminaries will be open to
men of all races with p, freedom, with
a hospitality, which has never yet been
enjoyed. 1 trust the time will come
when no man’s color will exclude him
from any church or any religious or
ganization whatever/ But though
that time should come, I am not at all
sure that the colored race will not, as
they now do as a rule, prefer their
own society, and prefer to have church
es and seminarids and colleges of their
owrt. Nor am i clear jhat this would
not be a >j iee choice. So then, I say
with regard'to our common schools,
where a rural district' conthifiS but" I>3
or 30 families, it is simply impossible
where two or three of those are color
ed, to have separate schools ; and in
jhose cases, to say that Black children
shall not go to school ~with White
children is to sav they shall not have
any schooling whatever. Rut in com
munities such as this, while if I were
a Black man, I should not ask a sepa
rate school, yet I should sti}} say if the
Whites chose to'have separate schools
I should not object to it. I should on
ly ask that the schools for my children
should be made as good, as efficient,
as the schools provided for other men’s
children. Then, if the 'majority
should chose that the minority be
educated in separate schools, I
would say, “Gentlemen, be it as you
please ; I have no choice in the mat
ter.” A gentleman and lady never
discusses the question, Was it prop
er to refuse me an invitation to. my
party? He or she accepts
the tact, and lets the reason take care
of it self. Precisely so with regard
to religious fraternity or associations
for the maintenanceof divine worship.
I would advise the colored race never
to make a distinction, and never to re
fuse one. If the Whites chose that
the Blacks shall not be members oh
equal terms of general congregations
I would accept exclusive congrega
lions, not as iny choice, but as the
choice of the dominant race.
B&if BrotherW illingham of the Ia
Grange Reporter is making a gallant
fight tor a straight out Democratic
nomination by the Baltimore Conven
tion, We admire his spunk, and ap
predate his motives, as we know
they spring from patriotic impulses,
but he will please excuse us, for say
ing that we honestly think that his
judgment is in error in the present in
stance.
UiSt" General A. li. Wright, editor
ofthe Chronicle & Sentinel of Augusta
in a speech in reply to one of Jrinton
Stephens before the county
Democratic Convention, said “that he
had no war to make upon the -red
hots’ oi the Democracy. He liked
the seed. They were good to have
about tile house. He only wanted to
hold them back until the Baltimore
j Convention met.” These are our
! sentiments exactly. Party unity by
| all means should be preserved if we
| expect to achieve success upon any
I line of y.oliev.
J&tSf We have seep the proceeding
of but few of the Democratic county
Conventions at thij writing. The
tenor of the resolutions of these few
however, is pretty much the same,
and points put the only safe and poli
tic course so; the Democratic party to
pursue, in the present political situa
tion, viz; by acting harmoniously and
refraining from committing,' them
selves to any particular policy or can
didate, until they have received all
the lights to be thrown upon the politi
cal situation, between now and the
meeting of the I>aUiipo,'e Convention.
And then by abiding by die action of
that Convention, whether it points to
separate action, or union with other
liberal parties who may be striving to
roach the same end.
