Colonization Tbe Tine Solution ot the
Frcedmen Problem.
It would seem that all those defenders and
friends of nogro righti who have been for
years bravely struggling In defense of the
injured African rac, have suddenly ceased
their efforts in behalf of justice, and are
supinely watching their former proteges, now
free, believing that all their duties have been
fulfilled in thus leading them from darkness
into light. William Lloyd Gabbisox dis
continued the organ which he has edited tor
thirty odd years. The convention in favor
ol freedom which has annually met are talk
ing of abandoning their schemes, claiming
that their alms are accomplished ; while the
Colonization Society, which, while it had few
blacks to work for was most active, has sunk
into insignificance since the number of those
who need its aid have increased to millions.
All seem to think that the whole scheme of
freedom and justice has been solved; that
with the breaking of chains comes liberty ;
and that, once without fetters, the blacks can
stand alone. We are afraid there is too much
of the molo-drama in this peroration of old
abolitionists. It savors rather of bombast
than of truth in uttering the declaration that
the end has been accomplished. Like an able
orator who seizes on a favorable incident to
conclude his speech with the clash and climax
of rhetoric, the life-long friends of the blacks
are now putting a period to their sentence in
defense of an injured race.
The fact is plain, however, that there never
was a time at which the blacks needed more
the advice of friends and the protection of
defenders. They are now passing through a
transition period. They will either be
moulded into the lowest strata of society,
from which no convulsion will upheave them,
or else will be so placed as to rise if rise they
can. The whole tendency of Southern feel
ing is to oppress them, the whole feeling at the
North is opposed to giving them their rights
which are the best guarantee of future self
defense against tyranny. Whether rightly or
wrongly, the fact is the same, that there is not
a State in the Union, unless it be Massachu
setts, which is willing to give the privilege of
suffrage to the blacks. There is Dot and pro
bably will not be any opportunity given to
them in this country to rise. The doctrine
that "this is a white man's country and should
be ruled by white men" is now a national one,
and the only opportunity for elevation is
voluntary emigration. In viewing this pro
blem but two lands present themselves to the
blacks either Mexico or Liberia. Whatever
might have been their penchant for the
former, the re-establishment of peonage ren
ders emigration to that land an act of the
wildest folly. They fly lrom a form of freedom
to a form of slavery.
Then there remains Liberia, and it is by
colonization that the race must be improved.
If it remains here it will gradually become ex
tinct, like the Indian, although with not such
great rapidity. The greater will erush the
less. While in Africa, a land whose climate
is peculiarly suited for the blacks, from which
they originally came, and where they will be
the ruling power, affords inducements which
to any high-spirited colored man, would be
irresistible. Compulsory expatriation we do
not favor, but let the question be fairly stated
let the moans of transportation be provided,
and then let such as wish to, go. We do not
intend to repeat the arguments in favor of
the scheme. We mer ely desire to discover
whether the Society once so active is now no
more. Whether its publications has been dis
continued, its efforts relaxed; whether it,
like the Liberator, has died when most
needed. It funds are necessary, an appeal
would secure all that are required. If it yet
lives, it should show its existence by being
seen and heard of. If it is dead, we favor the
establishment of a similar association. The
did one possesses all the elements of success
except vitality, and if that be added to it, we'
doubt not that it would be a most useful and
powerful agent in the solution of the vexed
question of "What shall become oi the freed
men ?" It is through this, or some similar
Society's efforts, that the difficulties of the road
must be smoothed, and, colonization, the
best settlement of the issue presented be suc
cessfully effected.
The Sanitary Commission.
Tins institution, born of the necessities of the
time, has closed its active career, and now
lives only in history. It was an earnest and
most active adjunct of the Government in
carrying out the projects of the Administra
tion. It was primarily intended to look after
the healthful condition of our soldiers in the
field, but its sphere of action extended so
rapidly that before the conclusion of the war
It became a national department, endorsed by
all who were truly loyal at heart. It is some
what creditable to tho city of Philadelphia
that she has provided for the wants ot the
soldier by the tree gift of over a million and a
hall of dollars ; and it will be observed that'
this is its contribution to one single organi
zation. The various other benevolent schemes have
bt'pn nobly supported, and we do not exagge
rate when we say that Philadelphia alone has
TIIH DAILY KVENiNG TKLFXJRAPII. PHILADELPHIA, SATURDAY,
furnished $0,000,000 by private subscilplion
to the carrj logon ot the war. Our Refresh
ment Saloons, erected for the purpose of giv
ing aid and comfort to the tired and war-worn
veterans, are of Philadelphia origin, and we
believe are peculiar to our city. Immense
sums of money have been expended in this
behalf. Our hospitals are acknowledged to
exceed any in the nation in completeness and
adaptability to the purposes lor which they
were designed. The Christian Commission
was not behind its competitors in its errands
of mercy. The Sanitary Commission his led
the van in all the charitable objects connected
with the war, and Its success may be measured
by the succinct statement of its operations,
published on our third page to day.
Our Relations with France -The Sewaril-
Bigolow Correspondence.
True charges which have been industriously
circulated by certain Democratic journals,
that Secretary Sewabd has been, and still is,
opposed to the inculcation of the Monroe doc
trine, have been completely refuted by the
publication of the correspondence between
the Secretary of State and our Minister to the
Ccurt of France. As all official communica
tions are lumbered with technicalities, we will
give the substance of the correspondence.
Ihe first despatch, under date of the 6th of
last November, plainly tells the Government
of tbe Emperor that the United States Gov
ernment always has, and "still does regard
tbe effort to establish permanently a foreign
and Imperial Government in Mexico as dls
allowablt and impracticable." This despatch
was read by Mr. Bigelow to Drouyn de
Lhuys, who frankly stated that he '"was
obliged to say that he derived neitberpleasure
nor satisfaction from its contents."
Mr. Sewabd, in reply to the letter of the
Minister of the 30th of November, in which
he communicated M. Dk Lhuys' report, at
the time of the first despatch, states that,
while desiring to preserve the most cordial
relations between the United States and
France, yet "that his policy would be brought
in immediate jeopardy unless France could
deem it consistent with her interests and
honor to desist from the attempt" to establish
a monarchy in Mexico. The French Minis
ter in reply states that should the United
States adopt an amicable attitude towards
Maximilian, the French would deem it "not
inexpedient" to withdraw their troops; or, as
Mr. Sew abb sums up the terms offered by
the Maiquis de Montholon, "lhat France
is willing to retire from Mexico as soon as she
may, but that it would be inconvenient for
her, w itbout first receiving from the United
States an assurance of a friendly or tolerant
disposition to tbe power which has assumed
to itself an imperial form in the capital city
of Mexico. I regret, however, to be obliged
to say that the condition the Emperor sug
gests is one which seems qmite impracticable."
With this last assurance terminates the
correspondence. Its whole tone is most
satisfactory to the people of the United States.
The utterances 'of the able Secretary of State
are but an echo of tbe popular desire, toned
down with diplomatic skill. The Govern
ment stands uncommitted to any compromise,
and pledged to a continued maintenance of
the doctrine of Monroe. The French evi
dently desire to withdraw their troops, but
are seeking to seize on some pretext, in the
shape of a conciliatory movement on the part
of our nation. If the State Department re
mains firm, of which there can be no doubt,
the troops which support the throne of Mexico
will have to leave, with or without an excuse.
There can be no question but that, before any
great length of time is passed, the European
armies will leave the shores of America, and
Maxim;lian . seek in his Austrian home a
less pomp, and smaller, but safer power, than
that achieved in the halls of the Montezu-
mas.
The " SnENANDOAu" Correspondence.
By the steatnsh'p Canada comes to us the
latest passages-at arms between Mr. Minister
Adams and Eail Clarendon. There is no
new feature developed in the correspondence,
and nothing worthy of note, with the excep
tion of a remarkably cool sentence from the
pen of his lordship. He states that the "two
nations should desire to be knit together by
bonds of the closest friendship. Such a desire
is felt by the Government and the people of
this country, and hjsr Majesty's Government
and the people of the United States." For
apy English Minister to attempt to instruct
an American Envoy in regard to the feelings
ol tbe American people is extraordinary.
That such is Lord Clarendon's design must
be interred from his language, although we
are at a loss to understand where " her
Majesty's Government" is located in the
United States. The whole correspondence on
Clarendon's side does not possess that per-
spicuitv which was so characteristic of Lord
Russell's despatches when Palmkrston
dictated them. Several sentences are deci
dedly ambiguous and in bad English, and
will compare most unfavorably with the clear
ness and force displayed by Mr. Adams.
Pollard and Pugilism. The penchant
existing in the South for the bowie-knife, but
which was latent during the six months suc
ceeding the war, has again become manifest
in a virulent form, in the person of Pollard,
of Richmond. While one Pollabd is directing
his energies to perpetuating the gallant deeds
of the chivalry, the other Is endeavoring to
secure immortality bv performing deeds of
which his kinsman can write. It will be re
membered that IIinky R. Pollard, editor of
the Richmond Examiner, a few days since
amused himself by firing half-a-dozen shots at
another member of the newspaper fraternity,
in the rotunda of the Virginia Capitol. It is a
remarkable coincidence that neither party
was injured. . ,
Ills effort for fame seems only to have
whetted bis love of blood, and according to a
later dispatch be has abandoned the Der
rlnger.Jand taken to the bowle-knite. He
yesterday attacked the correspondent of the
New York Times, in the Spottswood House,
but again did no evil. In both these assaults
there is a remarkable harmonv. Each was
performed in a conspicuous position, which
would sound well, and in each the desperate
efforts of Pollabd resulted in nothing.
The question is naturally asked, Why. when
such lury possesses the assailant, he Inflicts no
punishment on his insulter ? In fact, the "chi
valry" is returning to its old habit of creating
an excitement to secure a name for valor which
is unmerited. The mantle of the Illustrious
Pbyob has descended upon Pollabd, and he
will probably do a? much damage as his pro
totype.
Gfneral Grant's Order vs. the
Southern Civil Authority.-The order
from the Lieutenant-General, addressed to
District Commanders in the Southern States,
commanding them to protect agaiast persecu
tion in the Southern civil courts all soldiers
of the United States service, all loyalists
charged with crimes against Rebels whilst the
Rebellion was in force, and all blacks accused
of offenses lor which whites are exempt
lrom suits, reveals to us the want of confi
dence felt even by Mr. Johnson in the loyalty
of the Southern people. If the Judges ep-
pointed to fill the posts of disinterested ex
pounders of United States laws were indeed
trustworthy, what is the necessity for com
manding military officers to protect from the
judgment of the members of the bench those
whose only crime has been devotion to the
Union? The issuing of such an order shows
the utter inconsistency of endeavoring
to secure the re-establishment of civil
authority in the '' late insurgent States.
It this force of arms is necessary to
protect the faithful and true from the decision
of those appointed to administer the laws, the
dclense of which is the only offense oi
which they stand accused, why not
leave the military supreme, and not
establish the farce of a civil trial, when, if the
decision be adverse, it will be annulled ? If
these judges need watcbing and restraining,
then they are not fit to hold their positions-
If they are worthy of confidence, why
place them in abeyance to the military?
Either the order is right, or the appslntment of
civil courts is right, but boih cannot be so.
We approve most highly of the tone of the
mandate ot the Lieutenant-General, and
earnestly hope that ere long a perfect consist
ency will be secured by the removal of these
Southern judicators, the great majority ot
whom cannotbe trusted without a military
surveillance.
