Towauda, Thursday, March 1, 1866. ;
THE COWDCCT OF THE SOITII TOWAHDS
THE BLACKS.
It appears to us that the Southern pen- j
pie are extremely unwise in their conduct j
towards the blacks. We speak of the peo-j
pie of the South in general, for there are, j
we are glad to say, some noble exceptions j
ito the general rule. It is now a settled fact
that slavery is abolished, and it is hardly
possible for any contingency to arise that
will change the results. The States which
combined under the Constitution, t<> put
down the rebellion, will never again allow
this fearful danger, and horrid evil, to grow
up. Whatever aggression in ay be neces- i
sary to arrest its growth—and no matter !
what is thought of tins -the peop e of the
free States will not hesitate to accomplish
it : and the sooner the old slave-holders see ;
this clearly, the better for all concerned.
So that whatever hopes are indulged, or
whatever schemes are afloat for the re-es- j
tablishment of slavery. Let it be under
stood. once for all. that these hopes will he j
disappointed, and the scheme frustrated.
There is an amazing unwillingness mani- j
fested by the majority in the late rebellious
: States, to recognise the freedom of the'
blacks ; and a still greater unwillingness
to do justice to them in matters partaining
to their civil rights, and social comforts. ;
Aside front the flagrant injustice of all this, I
there is an absence of good sense, or prac- j
tical wisdom about it. that should alarm j
their statesmen. The more a race, or class I
lof people are oppressed, the more degra-j
ded they become ; and the more degraded !
they are, the worse for society. This is I
i reason, and it is the experience of the hti-1
man family since the world began. What \
then do the legislators of .South Carolina
I expect to gain from their laws denying to
the negro laborer the same rights which i
, the wlnte laborer enjoys ? If the former is ;
I not allowed to make contracts for work
I when and where lie pleases, he will likely
1 do just as the latter does ; and that is. go |
i where he can have these privileges ; or
| else, not work at all, and if they go off, er 1
1 do not work, they will steal their living or
ibe come paupers. So that, in any event,
! they will inflict injury upon the community,
i What the Southern States now want is la
bor. They need this more than all else, to
; restore their wasted fields, their ruined
homes, and their wonted prosperity. Will
| labor remain, or come there, and exert it
sell when the laws discriminate against it?
Why, the reverse of this invaribly holds
good ; i ibor will only go where it is want
! Ed, where it is appreciated, and where the
1 remuneration is good. Then, willing hands
are more profitable, than unwilling ones
Besides, laws enacted by capital to oppress
; labor begets antagonism, and this is fatal
to the interests of both 1 tics • proposi
tions arc all plain truths, long since *nvolv
ed by the experience of society. Indeed,
the whole totality of facts, and tendencies,
on this question, lead but one way, and
that is in the opposite direction from the
policy of the Southern States ; and while
we can make full allowance lot the preju
dices which former conditions, and customs,
engendered, it is, nevertheless, marvelous
to us, that trie .Southern people arc so short
sighted.
Never lias the .sun dawned on a section
i of the globe more abounding in the mater
ials ot wealth than the States lately in hos
tility to the government. All that is nec
! easary for the conversion of these materials
j into wealth, is the well directed industry of
man. The South, too. lias laborers of the
! character required by her climate and pro
: ductions : and in such numbers as to meet
: her necessities All site needs to n store
her waste, and make her latter glory great
' er than the former is to secure the applica
tion ot Iter labor to her material resources
1 The problem, in its general and specific
character, is the simplest problem of social
i science Her practical question is, what
shall we do to make the negroes a content
ed, virtuous and industrious peasantry?
j This is not a question of politics but a so
• cial one. And we have a case in hand
which aptly enough points the South in the
right direction in her present problem of
, the re organization ot her political system,
and her social requirements We refer to
the < levelopments which have been made in
the Island of Jamaica, during the last quar
ter ot a century. There, after the blacks
were freed, the policy of keeping them
down, politiealy and socially,"}' forcing them
to labor for starvation prices, and ot inau""-
eiating generally, a system of tyranny
hardly surpassed in modern tunes, was per
sistently adhered t Besides reducing
their wages far below a living point, and
then defrauding them out of the little agreed
upon, the tax laws were made to discrimi
nate heavily against them, and they were
denied land for homes All this the blacks
bore with commendable patience, though
their oppressor filled the world with villain
ous falsehoods concerning their depravity
and indolence. The recent struggle of the
blacks to throw oil this thraldom has dear
ly developed the fact, that the oppression
policy of which they were the subjects has
injured both whites and blacks, and the for
mer ntorc than the latter For, it is now
known that the one has advanced some lit
tle in civilization,while the other lias grown
weaker. Were this not the ease, the blacks
would not have been successful in the fear
ful odds which were arrayed against them
in the horrible struggle. From the begin
ning their cry was for land for homes. It
was denied, and every 'possible barrier,
which meanness and crime could devise,
was raised against them ; but patiently
the blacks toiled, and begged for land, un
til at last, seeing no hope front this curse,
they struck for it. and now 70,000 of them !
have homes.
In the South, as in Jamaica, the blacks
ask lor land for homes, and as in Jamaica,
the South is making the terrible mistake of
refusing to sell The freednten prefers the I
! South, and, order to live, must have la-'
I bor there. If they live there as small free
holders, they give the best pledge to eo
| ciety of good conduct. This is a funda
| mental truth, and it is a wonder the South
j does not see it. It would pay the employer,
and the State, ten-fold, to (jive to each
freedman a small patch for a homestead in
his vicinage. But if they will not he lib
, eral, let theui be just at least, and sell to
; each black laborer as much land as he can
j pay for by his work. //<* will hav<• it, in the
i end. He will clamor, as did his race in Ja
maica, lor it, until he gets it. There is no i
I
future event more certain th in this ; and
the wisest way is to yield to his just de
mands at once. Its denial was a source of
great trouble in Jamaica, and it will be in
, ...
the South, l ite negro lias found out, some
way or other, (it must have been through
: instinct, tor he is not allowed an\ brains,)
that to own in fee a patch of ground with a
cabin on it. is well calculated to add to his
material comfort ; and that tin white man
j does not know that :m orderly, docile and
i laborious peasantry does niititate to the
happiness and prosperity of society, public
i security and wealth, is because he is hlind
j ed by a ueep, dark prejudice that could or
iginate in slavery only. Let the rebels
| take heed that they fall not into the eirors
which have so long atllicted Jamaica.

During Tuesday, lule these scenes were being

: atre of a still more exciting struggle over a r. solu
. tion offered early in the day by Fhaddeus Stewus,
of Ph.. intended as a clincher, against the doctrine
j laid down l>v President Johnson in his veto. The
j resolution is concurrent, requiring the action of
both Houses, and goes upon tin journals as the
sense of the majority when passed, yet does not
partake of the nature of a joint resolution, because
it does not require the signature of the President.
It is merely declaratory, and intended to commit
its friends to a certain line of policy. It is as fol
lows: " lieiHilvril, by the House of Representa
" lives (the Senate e.incurring). That in order to
•• close agitation upon a question which seems lik.-
"ly to disturb the notion of the Government, as

'• which have been declared to he in insurrection,
"no Senator or Rrpresentativc, shall lie admitted
"into either branch of Congress from any of said
" States until Congress shall have declared such'
"States entitled to sncli representation." The
resolution being before the House, he Democrats,
determined to stave off action upon it as long as
possible, aid to effect this, resorted to all sorts of
dilatory motions, and every possible pretext within
the rules, for delay, and the majority steadily re
fusing to adjourn until the final vote should W ta
ken, the House was kept in session from noon tin-
I til eight o'clock, evening, when the ininnritv were 1

i Senate, hut has not yet been acted upon there.
< When a vote is reached upon it in the Senate, it !
- will be about the same as upon sustaining the I
• veto.
Thus we have in the outset of the administration, j
a direct and bitter political conflict, between the
President and the party to whom he owes his elec- 1
lion. This has animated the enemies of the Re- ,
public with a new enthusiasm, and to my mind it
presents the most melancholy prospect in politi
cal affairs we have yet witnessed. Having expe
rienced the Tvlerizing of Harrison's administra
tion. and the treachery to his party of Filmore af
ter the death of Taylor, 1 cannot contemplate the
| result of the present rupture, in view of the orit
i ical condition of the country, without forebodings
of evil to the cause of justice and humanity. The
lessons of a four years bittet and devastating war,
waged in the interc st of Slavery, for the overthrow
of the Government. but which lias proved an utter
failure to the conspirators, seems to be lost upon
tlios. of tlieiu who have been permitted to survive.
Having been ovorpowered by the force of arms,
and standing before the country in the attitude of
defeated traitors, they seek to become the defiant
dictators of the political policy which shall govern
the country. Can any true friend of good govern
ment join with these men in bringing into power
and control, the worst political elements in the
Country ? If successful, it must prove a very dan
gerous experiment, and every friend of the coun
try,before determining where be will stand, should
consider well what is to be the effect of bis action.
1 do not cast censure either upon the President
or upon the dominant party, and hope that both
are acting oonsciencionsly : yet, when 1 witness
the rejoicings of the rebel element in and about
Washington,over the rupture betwixt the President
and the party who have stood by the country in
her peril, I cannot but deplore the condition of
things, and I feel that it should be the desire of
every patriotic heart, to so act as to heal the breach,
if it can be done consistent with the best interest s
of the Government.
A call is posted here for a mass meeting to be
held to-morrow at (Hover's Tlieatrf, in this city, to
endorse the President ; and among the signers, I
observed the name of Ex-Mayor Uerrett, who was
imprisoned in Fort Lafayette, for his complicity
with treason, and many others who were out-spo
ken traitors during the rebellion. This indicate,
unmistakably tin tendency ot political affairs.
Shall it be arrested by the (rue men of ih- coun
try? COM WE
