Oplysninger fra den engelske Almen Viden Redigér teksten, så den bliver dansk. This unfortunate blunder must now be retrieved, and the emasculated citizenship given to the negro be supplanted by that contemplated in the Constitution of the United States, which declares that the citizens of each State shall enjoy all the rights and immunities of citizens of the several States, --so that a legal voter in any State shall be a legal voter in all the States.
