j Republican party, and compel them either *o
reject your Constitution when it goes before
Congress, or to admit you upon a basis al

j Tt is certainly no time- to push forward to
extremes which have already been condemned
i in advance. Your attempt to do so causes
; failure, and protracts our present ills for vears

state of things for both rao s. If, then, you
are true Republicans, you should stop where
the Republican party in Congress has stopped,
and not embarrass them by attempting to lead
off in advance where they have refused to go.
If you are colored men, you had better be
content to take what Congress has given you

Then, I care not whether you are white Re

They have given to the black man all the pro
tection of life, person and property which the
white man has, wit 11 merit 1 rights, and the
full right to sue and be sued, and testify in
i the courts. And for his further protection
against oppression, they have given him the

more justly by !»iin and treat him more kindly
to get his vote than they would if he had no
i vote. But, my black friend, when you look
; for more rights and privileges than I have just
mentioned, you searcli the records of Congress,
i in reference to these States and your status, in
vain. Be careful, then, in your first efforts,

given you. Do not set me down as an enemy

present, may not be agreeable to your feelings.
It }’Oii do, and disregard my advice, you may
live to see that I am a better friend than those
who flatter you at present by appeals to your
prejudices and your pride. You have nothing
to gain by making issues with the white race.

I ho rates of tuition at the Temple are now Ioyv-
than at anv Female College in the South—
j Upon the subject of disfranchisement and
| the question of office-holding, he says:
A few words here on the subject of disfran-
| cbisement. The constitutional amendment
! disqualifies a certain class of us to hold office
! till relieved by two-thiids of Congress, but
| docs not prohibit us from voting. The Sher
man b-ll disf'anehises us. ami denies us the
light to vote pending the reconstruction, or in
its own language, we are excluded from voting
j “ in all elections to any office under such pro-
! visional governments.” Under this act of
Ci ngrvso, Finn, we cannot vote so long as the
1 government is provisional. And it remains
; provisional until we are admitted to represen-
' let ion in Congress. '
Here the disfranchisement from voting, im
posed by tiie act of Congress, stops, and any
: provision in any State constitution which dis
franchises any white man for connection with
the rebellion, beyond that period, is outside of
the acts of Congress, and not required by Con
gress or the government of the conqueror.—-
And 1 do not hesitate ’to say, and 1 believe I
speak the sentiments of a large number of the
members of this Convention, when-1 sav I will
support no State constitution which disfran
chises any white man in Georgia, not a con
victed felon, or an idiot, or lunatic, for any
indefinite or unreasonable period after that
time. Fix upon a dav by which we may rea
sonably calculate the State will be re-admitted, 1
(I will not quibble about a few weeks if the
time is reasonable,! and after that day give
every white man the ballot. If we must have
universal suffrage, let it be so in fact—plain
and simple. If every black man over twenty-
one years of ago must vote, the same privilege '
must be allowed to every white man. I will
never consent to the disfranchisement of a
portion of my race by the constitution of my
State, and I warn yoij^ now. that any constitu- ;
lion which attempts it will be defeated, and
defeated by the votes of a large wing of the
reconstruction party, who are as sincerelv the
friends of reconstruction as the most Radical
member of this body. ° ° 0
You act unwisely, therefore, when you go a
step beyond what Congress has required ; and
you have no assurance that you will be admitted
with a constitution which exceeds the limits
prescribed by Congress.
Why should you wish to go beyond the point
where Congress has gone ? Are the terms die- '
tated by Congress, in the opinion of the Con
vention. too-lenient to the South? He who
thinks so, not only reflects upon the wisdom of
Congress, but misrepresents the people of Geor
gia. Has Congress failed to disfianchise as '
many persons, or for as long a time, as the
i people of. Georgia, whom you profess to repre- ,
j sent, require? M ill you, in the face of Con-
: gross and in defiance of the wishes of your
constituents, take the responsibility to extend
; the disfranchisement beyond
j by Congress?
Are you to be more radical than Congress ?—
Do you accuse the Republican party, now in
Dower, of having failed to give the black race
i in Georgia all the rights to which they aro en
titled ? Congress, at the commencement of the
war. found the negroes slaves. They have
made them free, and given them all the civil
, rights which the white men have, with tlie
political right to vote added. But Congress
has not, by any act, conferred upon them the
j right to hold office in Georgia, with the single
| exemption that they may be registrars of voters,
i Do you, who j r >fess to be Radicals, arraign
j Congress or the Republican party for having
i hose who shall have been convicted of trea
son embezzlement of public funds, mal.ea-
sance in office, crime punishable by law with
imprisonment in the Penitentiary, or bribery.
