i LINCOLN'S VIEWS OS NEGRO SUFFRAGE.
The most important expression ' of
j President Lincoln's views on the question
'of negro suffrage' has just been' given to
j the public in a letter which he wrote to
Governor Ilaha of Louiiaai. It is ti
' follows :
hstcCTlTE Mansion,
WAsiiixTON, March 13, '54 j
Him. MirJtarF Iluhn :
ly dear Sir : I congratulate you cn
having fixed your name in history as the
first ftce State Governor of Louisiana,
now you are thoit to have a convention
which, among either tilings, will probably
define the elective franchise.
1 barely fctlrT5'.- 'or your private con
sideration, whether some of the oolorei
people may net be let in, aa, for instance,
the very intelligent, and especially those
who have fought truliantly in our ranks
They would probably kelp in some trying
time to come to keep the- jewell of Lib
erty In tfcs farSily dl' rsed-jm. But this
is only a suggestion, not to the public,
but to you alone.
Yours Truly,
A. LINCOLN.
. -THREE VIEWS-
That wo may know what dependence
hereafter to placet iu the oracular utter
ances of tne great Cockney Thunderer,
let us here quote some of its fulmioations
at three periods of the war :
tom the London Times, Kot . 2$t '60.
' It is evident on the smallest reflection
that tlia South, evea if united, could nev
er resist for three months tbe greatly
prepondering strength of the North."
From th. London Timet, Spt. 14, '64
"The publio will admit that they have
not been misguided by our comments.
Wc said that the North could never sub
due the South and the North has now
proclaimed the sathe coneluvion."
Prom the London timtt, April 10, '15.
"The catastrophe seems complete, and
i n all its accessories calculated to impress
people with a feeling that toe work is 10
eomplished: and that the civil war is really
at an end."
la the beautiful consiatcucy of thesg
prophetic orucles is there not food enough
for an immense laueh?
