Negro Suffrage' at the North
Warned by tlitsresults ollast year's
eleotions, a piirtion'"of the Radical party
now disolaitwany - intehlion to interfere,
b s y. Pongreleional aitthority. with the
right_of suffrage at the North. It may.
be well to remind those gentlemen and
the . people generally, of
,the views
Sumner and Stereos,. who have or er
• .trol the .olio of their .ar-
ty Leas than a year ago Mr. Sumner
ivrote to Theodore Tilton of Liao New
York hidependent on the aubjaot, in the
following terms: •
SIONATZ CHAMBIta. 20th April, 'G'l,
MY DRAR SIR : YOR Ifillit to hale the
North "reconstructed," so at least that
it Shan &see to deny the elective fran
chise on siooount of color. But you
postpone the day by insisting on the
preliminary of a constitutional amend
ment.- I now your rows-to the
,good
cause ; but ask you to mate lone. We
cannot wait, , * * 1 * This
question musiletattled without. delay
In other words, it must be settledi before'
~,
the Presidential electi n, which is at
hand. Our Colored to low-cititens at
the Booth are already-4e era. They will
P
vote at the. residenti {lino tio n, But
why should they vote at the South and
not atThe North' The. role of Jostles
is the same for both - Their . otem are
needed at. the North 1111 well as the
South. There are Northern States
where their votes sun 'iliac the good
cause safe beyond queptitin There are
other States where tlr ir votes will be like
the last preponderant weight in the
nicely balanced scales. Let our colored
fellow-eiiitens vote to Maryland, and
that State, how en severely tried, -•1111
be flied or human rights forever - Let
them vote in Pensytvania, and you witi
give mare than 20,0110 votes to the Re
publican cnusa. Get them vote in New
York, and the Pltrieg which bang so doubt
fully will incline to the Republican
isinse. It will be the same in Connecti
cut. * * * * Enfranchisement,
which Rs the corollary coil 0 Hilpleflnylllt
of emancipation, ulna he IlL,R111101:1R1 act
also proceeding from the National (3o•-
ernment and applicable to all the States
CIIARLLII ,thI)IN Kit._
And within the past mouth Thaddeus
Stevens has introduced into Congres4 a
bill to extend -universal suffi age" over
the whole country.
We do not believe any serious elTurt
will be made to-acoeniplish this dewign
before the Pree'dential election. The
Radicals have learned that any access
, ton of strength they might gain from
the votes of negroes to the Nerd" would
be more than counterbalanced by ,tbe
votes of disguated whiles in the same
section. That Mo dispassionate o bserver
who has studied the progressive n istury
of the Radical party fur the last seven
years can doubt that they-will make the
attempt isflerthe Presidential election
If they succeed in that election, they'
inevitably proceed by act 01 Con
gress, to regulate the qualthcations el
voters in the North Their twenty new
Senators and fifty-six new Representa
tives will insist upon hits course, ad a
protection to themselves and their color
ed constituents And led by Sumner
and Stevens, lor his glio I. ) and hacked
by popular majorities at the North,
which they will again conetruct to have
endorsed their schemes in advance, they
will assuredly llCCOmpheti the sr purpose
No sane mansan doubt that It 01..0 Pile
, ess at the next l'revolenit.tl eleT.tion
will mean Negro Atari-age thronghont
the North In that event the Northern
people will be fortunate if they are not
required ti swear tb an - 'pt the civil and

As Art or CRI , III,TY - \lr Bonner, of
the New ork Ledyrr, to certainly ez'ou
•able for turning an honomt penny by
setting Mr Grant, the father or the qett
oral of that name, at work, to puff into
eminence his eon But Bonner has
much to answer for. in beguiling from a
respectable obso_trity an innocent old
gentleman, and inducing 11111 to display
his egotism and garrulity in the futile
attempt to make a / Wreat man out of a
very ordinary boy
If the father had sufficient power of dis
cernment to see in his son Ulysses, the
germs of greatness, why did he nu. give
him a better situation than I hat of a por
ter in his leather store in Galena, at a
salary of forty dollars a month---a small
pittance for a man'with a family ! -The
elder Grant boasts of having been able
to give each of his children $25,000, af
ter retaining enough to support himself
and family in at least comfortable cir
cumstances. Why, then, did he not,
out of that abundance, give to the great
and brilliant Ulysses, the small sum of
three hundred dollar., to enable him to
purchase an outfit, when he was offered
the commission of a lieutenant colbuel
Why was it that It wag left fur a former
partner of the elder Griint, E. A. Collins,
Beg , to tarnish the means for procuring
that outfit, after the positive refusal of
the father and brother to advanote.bita a
dollar for that purp6se? We would res
pectfully suggest that the least said on a
subject like this by the relatives of Vein
eral Grant, with a vies+ to impnwre
chances for the Presidency, will be the
most easily mendiad. A judicious "reti
cence" is a vary good thing in,lts place.
