" The black man freed, and his re-enslavement rendered impos- sible by fundamental law, then comes the last step in the pro- gramme to answer safely, correctly, and forever, the question : What is olir duty as legislators legislating for posterity? What is our duty toward this disfranchised race ? Uneducated, depend- ent, they look to us as helpless infancy, requiring direction, pro- tection, and to a great extent subsistence, and at this time instruc- tion how to obtain it. Emancipation leaves... them in the midst of unfriendly influences, and an unfriendly people, who, being forced to accept the emancijoation of their slaves, will by all means in their power seek to undo what you and your armies have done. It is proposed by some to settle them down on the old estates of tlie South ; this in view of the well-knovv^n temper of the Southern masses, is of doubtful propriety, and will, in my opinion, result in a second civil commotion in the course of a few generations ; nor will justice to the black man permit us to hide from our eyes the fact that his quiet requires removal from the scene of his former servitude and degradation.
