Formerly it was a current speculation that the blacks would drift toward certain states in the south, which would pass under col ored control in all respects, to the exclusion of the whites. This, however, is not likely to take place, except by interference of the general government.

Under the continu ance of such a policy, if it could be main tained, certain states might becom exclu sively colored in society therein sink toward a form of semi-barbarism. The whites would eventually be driven out by political corruption, ministration and evie bankruptcy. And let no man be de ne ; if the native whites are com ued and on certain southern localities bee of uninstructed colored edorai nance in local administration, the Yankee, or any others who be shodogs of, thrift, will not take their a few sharpers and vultures in ee of political car rion, will be found there.
