EDUCATION OI< , 2J1K K&uuy
THE
The education of “Our Brother in
Black” is now tile leafing topic of the
day. It is claimed by some, of our
prominent men that, t isthe duty of the
govern men t to educate tltem. Many
reasons may lie given why the financial
liunlen of then education should not

the country. For eighteen yeais Liny
have been free and have during
long period failed to provide. proper ed
ncatioiial facilities for themselves.
Their opportunities for accumulating
Wealth since the emancipation iiave
been as great and as favorable as those
oi the op|KJ8ite race. There in no couu*

can they have any excuse for thru •
liilil''to educate themselves V If they
hud been interested in education,would
they not have by this time made more
progress towards it V 8o long as tlieii
education depends upon tlwii '>»« ‘ *'
ertioiis, they care but very little atiout
it it, but luit Just inst so so soon soon iib the burden is
placed upon others they snow some am
bition or desire to bo educated, Tins
, is evidenced ,, by the vast, tinmhnrH nuumws that
attend school during the free term.
v, >Iotwithstanding iwiihuiunitirii/ their ttietl wonderful vuniuuiui facil- i.u
ittes they have HeffTtfnuluted but very
mu,, little iveultli vvuuui sinco tliev 3 were freed.
Now utid then you find one unit mu
made s uae propeny, but a large mu
jority own nothing nml are in a worse
condition, financially speaking, than
they were tlm day they were set »t lib¬
erty. They own, wo believe, only about
live million dollars worth of property
in Georgia. The truth is. they ju,
improvident |ample, and me Ittcaplq of
self government. Throw them 'I|h>ii
their own resource-, and they ootnoteiwe
at once to retrograde. Their history as
freed men proves tliis lieyottd nil contro¬
versy. For instiinee, tlm negro slaves in
Lngland were set free in 1833 und in¬
stead of increasing and advancing they
have absolutely become extinct. In the
same year about 0,000,000 wore freed
In Englandt* East and West India pos
sesMtons and in a few years they dimin
tshed U) less than one half their num¬
ber when set free. This seems to have
been their Lite In every country in
which they Iv.wo been given their liber¬
ty. Th«b’ possess imitative faculties and
can learn to Imitate but they are void
of inventive genius or originality In
any degree. ,As to whether slavery is
right or wrong wo do not propose to
discuss at all. lb' that as il may, none
will deny their inferiority as a race.
Nature made the distinction audit is
not for us lo change it. The weaker
elements in till of God’s creations must
yield to and lie governed by the strong¬
er elements. Just as the stars in the
physical world which shine so bright
by night yield to the greater and more
brilliant light of lira sun by day, just
so the weaker race must be subordinate
to and controled by the stronger race.
Nat urn no doubt assigned the negro to
the humble sphere in which he moves,
aud any tfor, to elevate him is simply
to demoralize and unlit him for the du¬
ties allotted to him. None would ob¬
ject to their building schools and col¬
leges and educating themselves. Rut
It is very manifest that they do not
wish to do so. I.et Dr. Haygood there*
