the Charleston _News and
Courier_ utters this salutary and emphatic protest:

"It appals thinking men to know and see that the present
generation and the rising generation of white men in the South
are taught in practice that republican institutions are a
failure, and that elections are to be carried, not by the honest
vote of a fair majority, but by campaigning, which begins with
rank intimidation and ends with subterfuge and evasion. The
white people suffer more by the trickery and malfeasance by
which they score victory than the colored people suffer. The
supremacy of what, for convenience, is called Anglo-Saxon
civilization, though there is little of the Anglo-Saxon manner
or of civilization in the mode of securing it, must and will be
maintained, but it can be maintained without sectional divisions
in politics and without the maintenance of radical lines at
elections."

As these old methods are beginning to find little favor with the South
itself, a multitude of other schemes are brought to the front.

The _Age-Herald_, of Birmingham, Ala., claims a patent (which it says
others are infringing) for the scheme which it thus sets forth:

"The Negroes could be induced to emigrate to a Western Territory, if it
were set apart for their especial use without any force being used to
compel them to go."

A writer in the Richmond _Dispatch_ proposes that the Negroes in the
South be induced to voluntarily emigrate to Brazil, Mexico or other
countries where they are wanted, and even the old plan of fifty years
ago, to return them to Africa is again brought forward. To this last
suggestion, the _Yonkers Statesman_ replies:

The notion that the black can be successfully re-shipped to
Africa dies hard; but there are few things plainer than that he
has no desire and no purpose to be thus disposed of, but regards
this land as being as much his as it is the white man's. It
would be hard to dispute his title, grounded as it is in age and
effective service. The Negro believes he belongs here, and here
he means to remain; and the prospect that his mind can be
changed is certainly not very cheering.

The _Times-Democrat_ of New Orleans thinks that the true solution is
white immigration, but the _Daily Express_ of San Antonio, Texas,
replies: "The principal objection to this scheme is that the Negro will
not go till the
