desire to say something to intelligent southern white men and women if by chance anything that 1 can say will reach them let me put it as if i were speaking to them per sonally then are men still living in the north who have endured a great deal and sacrificed a great deal for your sakes all through the period when things were culminating hereto more or less encroachment upon or disregard for your constitutional rights these northern men battled in defense of them not because they liked or ap proved of your institution of slavery but because the guarantee which it had received in the constitution were im bedded in the very foundation of the union the conservative men of the north had a common interest with you in the preservation of the principle that all local institutions laws customs and conditions arc exclusively reserved to the control of the several states and their people their adhesion and fidel ity to this principle placed them by your side throughout that long period in which the anti-slavery agitation made your peculiar constitutional rights :> 11 objeci id attack by stand ing forth in your defense they sacrificed individually their chance for political preferment in their respective commu nities true they did not feel this sacrifice or care for it in comparison with the tn .;-■ ndeni importance of de fending the basis of the i nion what ever sacrifices of tins kind any of them may have made they made cheerfully from a sense of public diwy when at length a condition of things came about which you thought you had justifiable cause cor disrupting the union while these men could not join you in affirming tin cause and be lieved n to be their dniy to sustain the general government in its efforts to prevent a severance of the i t ve from the free mate they did hot yet wholly de eri you they insisted that the war in behalf of i lie < ions itution should be confined to its legitimate object - : he reinstatement of the constitution in its just authority over all the people whom it was entitled to govern then again these men exposed themselves to misconception to misrepresentation to obloquy to the loss of influence over public affairs when the war was at last ended and the period of so-called reconstruction followed when sud den emancipation of the slaves was forced upon you as a condition of your restoration to the union and the privi leges of the constitution when negro suffrage was made compulsory upon you when you were cursed with all the evils and disgraces of carpet-bag gov ernment when you were dominated over for a time by the must ignorant and incapable mass thai ever beld po litical power in any civilized region of the earth and civilization itself was exposed to impending destruction the same northern men still stood your friends they uttered their protest in no measured terms although they could do no more von lived through those hyrrors as you best might scarcely foreseeing scarcely daring to hope eor any mode in which relief was to conn ; your friends here counselled you not to despair and you did not having faith themselves in the future adjust ment of the relations between yon and the emancipated nice the < shorted you to have that same faith and vou heed ed tin exhortation you found that the negro after he had been taught to stuff ballot boxes and had practiced it as your and our great friend jeremiah s black expressed it ceased to stuff aiid began to vote you then saw that with all his illiteracy the negro could learn to distinguish between his real friends and those whose object in using him was to plunder him and you you thus began to regain your natural and rightful influence over tiio.-e who had at lasi proved themselves capable of seeing that in political action there should be no race antagonism and that the negro as well as the white man should vote as his judgment applied to public affairs ac cording to hi.s capacity may lead him you have now therefore reached a condition of things in which if you will adhere iiunly to the great principle of exclusive domestic control over that which is exclusively a domestic matter you can manage for yourselves this problem of the education of your peo ple of all races and condil ions just as yon . ht to manage it let me then as one for more than a generation has been your friend entreat you to view problem according to its just di meusions and its inevitable conditions in the first place i pray to see that this matter of popular education is no different affair w;;!i you from what it is in any jforthern state with the sin gle excepi ion of the que ; i n whet her be education of the whites and blacks shall be carried on in the same or in separal e schools > tion maki s this a ven iraportan practical ques i m ! > >; it is the only matter in u inch popular educ il i n requires spe cial treatment in \ ur state ■; and this difference arises mainly from the fact of the greater comparative numbers of the b . mg you and i hi i e in the i stat -. this p ri i if t he problem does not involve any other difference in the education no state in providing for a system or popular education in public schools would think of giving | any but the same education to all the children of both races now it is not only true that the question of co education or separate education is a local question but it ia a question in which it would be specially dangerous for you to admit of any interference from without true the particular hill that is now pending in congress did not as reported propose at present to exercise any interference in this matter but if you accept the bribe that is now held to you of a grant of federal money to aid you in educating your people how long will it be before the question of separate schools or the same school is transferred from vour siate legislatures to the halls of con gress it will not be long and i know enough of the encroaching spir it of most of those who are special ad vocates of educational schemes to foresee how and where the first step will be taken for bringing this particu lar question into discussion in congress the bill that is now offered von con tains a reservation of aright in con gress to repeal alter or amend its pro visions and depend upon it if it goes into operation the first proposition of a change will relate to a question which you and your colored friend should never allow to be taken out of your own hands it is as much the interest and duty of the colored people to keep this question exclusively under the con trol of each separate si ite as it is the interest and dv.iy of the whites for the colored race have their own opin ions and wishes on this subject which they can only give effect by keeping it a domestic question to be governed by their votes as well as by the votes of the whites in the next place let me respectfully exhort you not to embrace the delusive idea that the circumstances attending the einaiicip.it ion i the slaves made the colored race wards of the nation or cast them upon the fostering care or protection of the federal government one whit beyond the force and provis ions of the amendments of the federal constitution adopted after the close of ih civil war i'v the thirteenth amendment slavery was abolished by the fourteenth all persons born or nat uralized in the united states and sub ject to the jurisdiction i hereof became citizens of the united states and of the state wherein they reside by the fif teenth the states in granting the right of suffrage were prohibited from deny ing or abridging it on account of race color or previous condition of servitude this is the whole sum and substance of the new relation assumed by the people of the united states toward those who were once slaves or their descendants this new relation comprehends no duty poaver or obligation of the fed eral government to look after the per : onal welfare of t lie colored v..i in your states or in any of the states and nothing could be worse for you and for the colored people among you than it would be to have n admitted that the federal government is in any way bound or empowered to meddle in any form or for i\y purpose with the condition of the colored people excepting to see to it that in regulating the right of suffrage the states shall grant ii equal ly to all men sv'ho were born on ameri can soil or have become naturalized cii izens let it once be ackno\n 1 dgi 1 that there i.s any power lodged in the general government or any obligation imposed upon it to deal in any manner with the subject of education in the several states and there will be no limit to the schemes for controlling the relations of the two races to each other marriage divorce labor con tracts pauperism insanity and hosts of oilier tilings are just as much with in the constitutional function and duty of congressional interference as . luc it ion be warned in time lest you fiud yourselves making admissions fatal to your peace and to the welfare wf your fellow citizens of every race resist i\i'vy encroachment upon the reserved rights of the states and their people m whatever guise it first pre ' nts itself finally there has occurred some thing during the past week which will show you that your people of all clas es would do well to be on their guard an amendment has been moved which will require a state receiving its quota of the federal money in case the col ored children are educ ited in sep rate school , to disi ribui i the funds to i he colored schools in the proportion which illiteracy among the colon d children as shown by the census bears to illit eracy among the white childn n if the blair bill becomes a law with this amendment in it the first step will have be •!! taken for a direct federal control over the internal administra tion of the school system in every state which d [ suds on federal aim in ing the young v v star an exciting scene in the united stales senate baltimore sun washington march 10 1880 — the hundreds of sped ltord who thr senate galleries to-day were treat one of the most exciting scenes that has been witnessed at the capitol dur ing the pn sent ■ essii n the principal actors were senators riddleberger of virginia and logan of illinois the occasion of this legislative emeuti was a letter from jam 3 13 eads to the senate yesterday and which to-day ap peared in the oongra . nal record mr riddleberger in a loud tone of j voice demanded to know upon what authority a personal letter addressed to john a logan denying certain state ments made by i brother senator should l>e spread upon the pities of the record growing more and more ex cited as he proceeded mr riddleber ger intimated that lie would hold gen logan responsible for the publication in the record while mr riddleber ger was gesticulating the spectators in the galleries ie;uit'tl forward to take iii every word and senators upon the floor looked at fuch other in consterna tion and wondered what the junior senator from virginia would next say or do a.s soon as senator logan found opportunity to speak lie arose and turning to mr kiddleberger said he was utterty astounded at the statements just made !!»• said he intended to cast no reflection upon the virginia sena tor when he submitted mr eads's let ter and had simply presented it as a statement from an honorable american citizen mr logan who is also high strung appeared to be laboring under excitement which he was struggling to repress he said the senator from virginia could have no personal con troversy with him and was proceeding to move the reference of the matter to a committee when mr riddleber ger replied that he did not seek a con troversy with gen logan but he would defend himself from such attacks as appeared in the letter from oapt eads which had been slipped into the he cord by gen logan in the mean time the feeling on the floor of the senate and in the galleries was intense and as the colloquy proceeded mr riddleberger seemed to be almost wild ! with excitement and mr logan to have no less difficulty in restraining himself mr riddleberger proclaimed that he did not care what committee the resolution was referred to he would not appear before anv committee but i would say all he had to say on the subject in open senate he then char acterized gen logan as the representa tive of mr eads and warned him to take care of his hum on the floor of the senate this last remark was too much for the fiery senator from illinois he jumped to his feet and at the top of his voice declared that the statement that hs was the representative of mr kails was untrue a buzz of apprehen sion went around the chamber and all present moved uneasily in their seats itkldleberger till maintained that lo gan was responsible for the appearance of the letter in the record which res ponsibility he said might have been avoided by endorsing upon the back by request lust as the excitement reached its highest pitch the president pro tern announced that the hour of 2 o'clock had arrived and the subject went over until tomorrow the forces of the confederacy in a letterin the richmond dispatch the rev .!. williams jones secretary of hip southern historical society states that all the ablest writer on the subject of the strength of the confed erate armies agrees that the available confederate force capable of active service in the field did not during the entire war exceedsix hundred thousand 600.000 men of this number not more than four hundred thousand 400,000 were enrolled at any one time and the confederate states never had in the field more than two hun dred thousand i 2l 0 00 men capable of bearing anus at any one time exclu sive of sick wounded and disabled ' as opposed to this we have very nearly the exact figures of the number enrolled on the federal side which amount in the aggregate according to the records of the adjutant generals office to the enormous total of 2.859 132 men it appears again therefore that the united states put into the field nearly five times as many men as the ( lonfederacy could must r if then mr jones reasonably con cludes with these immense odds in their favor certain writers in the cen tury mr rossiter johnson in new york examiner and other historians ( ?) of that ilk are to be believed and the federal forces were beaten b overwhelming numbers wherever we gained a victory then there was an amount of blundering stupidity on the part of the federal authorities and their generals with which their harsh est critics have never yet charged them the better explanation of the fre quent defeats sustained by the federals is perhaps that given by gen early our nun in gray had a habit of so multiplying
