WILKINS & BERRIEN,

SL&r Wo have been informed
that the editor of Tim True Citi
zen has not had a square meal of
backbones for years. This is real
ly lamentable—and we should
judge that he is in search of a mess
on account of the fact that we have
not received an issue of the paper for
several weeks. If this is the cause of
tin* delay, he remembers the time of
year well, but wo would suggest to
him it has been rather warm yet
for those luxuries.—Statesboro Ea
gle.
Taking the last first, we are sur
prised to learn that brother Griiior
does not received The Citizen,
and we assure him each issue is
regularly and promptly mailed to
tin 1 Eagle. We can credit the fail
ure to come to hand to nothing
except the intelligence (?) and
prompt discharge of official duties
of Mr. Arthur’s pet route agents.—
As touching the “backbone” ques
tion, judging from brother Griner’s
anatomical conformation, it is to be
supposed ho carries about with him
the capacity for housing a majority
of the “backbones" raised in Bulloch
county, to say nothing of the jowls
and turnips with a quantity of old
bacon and collards, with extended
bread privileges, during a season.—
Of course, with these facts in view,
we do not design visiting hi* sec
tion on a “backbone” hunt. If
however, brother Griner has had
any “backbone” to spare, it is a
great pity he did not send Govern
or McDaniel a supply before he
“fell from grace” and joined the
Joe Brown ring.

The future of the negro has been
extensively discussed by the news
papers both North and South to lit
tle or no purpose, and all prophecies
concerning the colored race of the
South have failed. Our business is
to deal with the negro as he now is,
and to do so intelligently we must
turn hack a page or two of history,
and learn how he became a factor
in the politics of the nation.
When the slaves of the South
were emancipated, the Southern
people—those who knew the negro
best—insisted that his ingnorance
and long condition of slavery,
which operated to destroy all the
finer sensibilities, rendered him un
lit to exercise the privilege of the
franchise either intelligently or
honestly. These arguments acted
to confirmed the Radical politi
cians, who then and ever since
have had possession of the govern
ment, in rheir determination to
clothe the colored man with the
power and privilege of the ballot.
It is lolly even to suppose that
the astute Radical politician did
this ignorantly or with any feeling
of liberality or justice to the newly
emancipated slave. We must look
for the reason of this Radical move-
nient’in a different direction, and
we find it rooted in the very objec
tions which the Southern statesman
made to the hasty enfranchisement
of the negro. They supposed that
his ignorance would render him an
easy prey to Radical machinations,
ami that his hatred for his former
master would hand the whole race
over en masse to the Radical party,
and the deed was done. Under
the power of the bayonet, the
scheme worked well fora few years,
and the negro was fooled and swin
dled without mercy. Slowly the
more intelligent of the colored vo
ters began to have their eves forced

open to these Radical schemes, and
to discern that all the interest they
had in them was their votes and
their money, and they began to de
sert tlu> Radicals and join the Dem-
crats. This has nutralized the force
of the colored vote to such tin ex
tent that in all State or national
elections it is merely a side issflo—
being felt only in county turn local
elections.
All this lias forced the reluctant
admission from the Republican pol
iticians and journals that they com
mitted a great party blunder in
so hastily clothing the newly
emancipated slave with the fran
chise, and they would to-day take
it from him if they could. Wo can
see no reason why the colored vote
should enhance in value, but many
why it will decrease, and it must
eventually he entirely lost as a po
