A Letter from G?*n. Hampton.
\ To the Editor of the CoiiimUft Phrv,,;,:.
?Sir: Ntimeious communications having boco
j aadressed to me, proposing to form a colony
i to emigtaic, I take this method of answering
i them, not only on account of their number,
i but because of tho want of alljpail facilities.
: ?'hu .lo.Mro Ca Jx..t-o-w??4^.^ ',i .rfl'ili'l?LT TJ?CTT
i reduced lo such a deplorable condition as
ours, and whose future bas so little of hope,
I '8 doubtless aa wide-spread aa it. is natural.
But ? r'oubt the propriety of this expatriation
of so many of our best men. The very tact
that our State is passing through so terrible
an ordeal ??? tbe present, should cause her
sons to cling the more closely to her. My ad
vice to all of myfeilow-cilirena ir-, thal they
should devote their whole energies to the re
st?nation of law and onter, the re-establish
ment ol" agriculture and commerce, tite pro
motion of education and the rebuilding of
our cities and dwellings which have bsen laid
in ashes. To accomplish these objects--Ibo
highest that patriotism can conceive-I re
commend, that ail who can do so should take
j the oath of allegiance to the United .States
Government, so that they may participate
in the restoration cf Civil Government to our
State.
War, atter four years of heroic, but unsuc
cessful struggle, has failed to secure to us thc
rights for which we engaged in it. To save
any of our rights-to rescue anything more
from the general min-will require all the
' statesmanship and ail the patriotism of our
uitizens. It ttiO IteM men of our country
- those who for years past have risked their
?ives in her delrnve- rtfusc to toke tho oath,
they will be excluded from thecouncil.s of the
State, and i's destiny will. be committed of
necessity le those who forso'k her in ber
lion* of need,, cr to iboso who, would gladly
pull her down lo irretrievable ruin. To guard
against such a calamity, le; al! true patriots
devote themselves, with zeal and honesty of
! purpose, to tbe rcstoratiou of Taw, the ble?6
! ings ofpence and to. the rescue of whatever
j of liberty may be. saved from the general
j wreck. If, after an heutest effort to effect
! these objects,yve fail, we can.tben seek a home,
j in another country. .
A distinguished citizen of ?ur State-an
houeat mon.aqd a true pat:int-has been ap
I pointed Goyenor. II--, will soon call a Con
vention ol the per-pb, which will bc charged

.Nc-?ro Equality.
We aro surprised to' find ia the recent is
sue of a New Ybtk daily phper, which has
j heretofore- been regarded as siium'iy -Demo
j eratic, an article advocating the doctrino ol
negro iMlBrage. Experience b?3 taught us
that extremely few of the metropolitan jour
nab; arc to bo relied upon in cases where the
promise of making a momentary sensation is
reasonably good; and it is prohable wc should
Dot iiave been surprised in this case bad not
the journal alluded to been regarded as an
exception to the rule. That a State bas the
right to confer the elective -franchise upon
the negro is indisputable, just, as they have
ilia light to emf. r it upon women and 'chil
dren if they choose; but, that they should do
?SQ, : even fur the purpose of correcting the
representation in Congress, is not on Iv -,0
.part of the-Democratic creed, but revoltt.ig j
contrary toit. The negro is not thc eqcai ol
the white man. God nt-ver -made, hun so,
and thirty centuries have borne testimony
to thc fact that no human effort can make
him so. The u.itive condition of the negrc
race is.that of bartjar.sm; it-has been 6uch
fur thousands of years, and will contin?ese
to the end of redlining. Civilization bas pro
gressed everywhere but among the Africans;
revolutions have effected some good to every
race hut tbafuf the negro ; there they have
halted because progress was impossible; re
forniatipns~hav? boen instituted,.but nevei
one that-coold elevate t?c African, or makt
the " Ethiopian change his skin." The high
est degree of civilization ever attained was ir
the condition of warranteeism in the south
ern States, where'his inferiority and subordi
nation were recognized, and the governmenl
to which be was subjected was made in ac
cordance with these lace?. In this conditfoi
three hundred thousand pagan, savage ne
groes, progressed to faur millions of usefu
domestic laborers. No race can increase li
aa abnormal condition; the fact that thc ne
groes rapidly increase in a slate of servitud)
in the South and decrease in a state of free
dom in. the . North, proves that which m
amount of maudlin'philanlhropy and sentimei
tal sophistry cnn overthrow? Tais fact was uni
varsally recognizedln the country until with
in a few 3*enrs: and then was only denied a
the instigation of British Abolitionists. Tin
framers of the Declaration of Independent
recognize the inferiority of the regro. Ti
say that they did not is lo accuse thom of Un
most con tom pti Ide and disgraceful ir.consrs
tency aud falsehood. Any other construetioi
of their Declaration isa perversion and i
* I slander. This government- wa? formed bj
* ? white men and for white men, else the African
and the Indian would have been invited t.
participate in ifs formation. ?
Thc idea of conferring thc elective franchis
Upon the negro, is .1 moder? notion, a* ahearn
as it. is wicked and revolting, lt is tho fri ii
ot a besotted and zrzzy fanaticism and not 0
political, foveidghl-or gen ui?fir ' philarrthropy
The equality of the white man and the ncgn
involves their social equality, amalgamation
a mongrel race and a hybrid government, 1
monstrosity, revolting to men and offcnaivi
to God. Upon this one subject tiVro can br
00 possible quibble by which the Democrat i<
I '\ party could or should seek lo evade the rnggec
1 \ issue. It hrs be?n thc custom bf tho Aboli
J j ticu revolutionists to attempt to justify ai
5 j their usurpations and errors by some Demo
I ; eratic precedent, but upon this quest ion then
is no hook or crook in the Democratic rccotv
upon which to hang such a precedent. To bi
opposed to negro snffrsge in Ohio is to bt
opposed to enforcing it upon the people of th?
Southern States for what would be disgusting
to us would be revolting tn them. The Dem
ocratic party, being the oldest' and pures
' political organization i?u the country, is op
! posed to negro sullirtge und negro equality ir
j Ohio, in ihe Southern and in all the Stat*?,
I on the principle ol' recognizing thc dUtinc
j tion and thc difference which' nature aud Gee
I have made between men. *

incident of the disasters occasione'd by the
recent flood in Michigan, U .the"drowning of
live eliildrcu in one family, and thc al?no-<t
superhuman efforts of thu ^mother to save

Tuc father, Uutluiel Draper, living on thc ,
west shle of the Ontonagon, near the crossing i
of tho Wisconsin road, was out ou the L'Anse
railroad survey, aud his Lwo eldest chiidee?
were away; the mother, an Judian woman, ,
and her five youngest chilJr.ui being at .home,
and asleep when the watp? came into 1
their shanty. One of th* children it is said, .
was drowned b$fure the toi l ilied mother could
get them out, mt,site lashed its bony aud-f
three oftho others 0- her back and 'o ber;
'sides, .and took tho fifth' .in her' arms, aita'
strack out fora tree near by, to which she '
managed to tie thacdrpsf*, 'in the vain hop? '
of preserving it for burial; but the tree soon j
gave way and swept down the resistless tor- j
rent, and in her maternal efforts to save ib? [
rest by swimming to a second place of s-uVty
the franti' mother felt tue child in ber b-;,^ ?tn
expire am. saw thc uthers swept under by .
the foaming billowsand buried from her sight ;
forever. The mother climbed a small tree, !
where she remained over two days for tho i
riv^r to subside, and finally reached thc For
