Ifr Nasby, at the Instance of the National
Central Committee, Goes South to Organ
ize Colored Seymour and Blair Clubs.
Post torts, Confedrit X Hoads, |
(VVich is in vhe State uv u-etiiuCayy, »
August 27, 1368. j
The Nashnel Central Committee, hevin
notified me that I cood -either pay an assess
ment uv S3O toward defrayin the expenses
uv the campain, or go South and organize
colored Seymour and Blair Clubs, I desided
to do the latter for obvus reasons, wich are:
1. The entire community in wich 1 reside
ain’t got S3O, ceptin Bascom and Pinni
backer, wich, bein distillers and grocery
keepers, hev naterally absorbed all the cap
ital uv the place.
2. I am fond uv travel, for elsewhere I
find uugleaned fields and pasters fresh. I
find men uv wich I hev never borrored, and
whose nachers hev never bin soured by un
forchnit lendins. I hev notist that 1 hev
alluz done better wher I ain’t so well
known. My zeal rather wears out my
friends.
For the reasons I went. My first stoppin
place wuz in Western Tennessee, and my
success wuz glorious. 1 made known my
biznis to the leading Demokrats, and they
took hold uv the idea with alacrity. Every
tnau uv them put on his gray uniform, as
they alluz do when they embark into a po
litikle enterprise that ther Dimocrisy may
not be questioned, and sallied out with me
to electioneer the niggers wich were em
ployed onto their plantashens. Their method
wuz short, decisive and effective. The nig
gers wuz mildly but firmly given the choice
between jining a Seemore and Blare Club,
and attendin it to hear me speak, or being
discharged from their employment.
Ez the planters hev a jokeler way uv
shooting at site all the niggers who hevent
any employment, the alternative mite be
considered equivalent to deth, and with an
alacrity wich I didn’t expect they all jined
and all came to the meetin in the evenin.
One nigger, when I wcz half thro speakin,
gut up and left, Bayin ez he went that he
wanted to work, that he jined the club, and
wuz willing to be a conservative nigger to
hold his place, but cz for heariu me clean
thro, he’d be— —. They wood hev finisht
him on the spot, but I bade em forber.—
That nigger’s vote cz shoor, and I don’t
mind the insult he put onto me. “Let em
go,” I sed, “we hev no votes to spare, and
since Bookannon s time we hevn’t bin able
to vote ded men to any extent.” Let Ho
rasho Seemore, es he is elected, remember
this thoughtful nis and self-sacrifis. Sich
qualities wood shine at the head of the Post
Office Department. 1 merely throw this
hint out by the way.
The next pint 1 struck wuz a cheerful
village uv perhaps a thousand people. Here
1 found a better spirit prcvalin than I cood
hev hoped for. The druggists and grocers
were all Democrats uv the straigbtest sect,
hevin every one uv them served in the Con
fident army. They were delighted at the
movement. Not five minits after I hed made
known my bisnessa nigger come into a drug
store uv wich the likker (wich wuz kept for
mcdissinel purposes only) sootid me, askin
for some calomel and quinine, wich is the
•standard remedy among the niggers here
for ague the same disease, wich they take,
omittin the quinine.
“She'i yoo vote for Seemore and Blare ?
quoth the patriotic druggist. ‘‘Are you
willing to become u conservative nigger
and jine a conservative nigger Seemore
and Blare Club?”
“No, sah !” replied the obtoose Ethio
pian.
“Then, my buck, you can't hev no medi
cine at this shop."
“But my children must hev it,” replied
the nigger.
“It makes no difference. We can’t
furnish (medicines to Radikels. We can’t
furnish niggers who ain’t willin to vote
with us, who protected them in their in
fancy, and workt em for their own good in
their matoorer years, either vogitable or
mineral. Jine the club or no quinine.”
Ez a matter uv course the nigger listened
to reason. He wuz to-wunst convinced
that the Radikels wuz opposed to his inter
ests in all respex, and he jined. They
were thoro in ther Democrasy in that place.
They determined to hev perfeck yoonani
mity in ther vote at the polls, and the three
or four niggers wich positively refoozed to
jine they hung, together with two white
Ohio farmers and one white Pennsylvany
blacksmith, wich persisted in ther “loyal,”
ez they called it, principles. It hed an
excellent persuasive effeck upon the re
maining ones. They come in handsome
and jined without a murmur.
The next place I visited wuz a smaller
village, one wich reely gladdened me to ap
proach. In this class uv towns there is less
uv that cold formality which characterize
more densely populated secshuns. In sich
places you find the troo gushing child of
nacher. It is a splendid corn-growin seck
shun, wich is perkoolyerly favorable to De
mocrasy. In feci, corn and Democracy is
inseparable, and our largest majorities is
alius where there is the best and most luxu
riant corn. The distillers convert the corn
into whiskey and the whiskey converts origi
nal men into Democrats, ans! then its plane
sailing. It takes three generations at least
to bring a people out uv whiskey, and the
state of towhs shoes, pants busted in the seat,
and winders stufft with old hats, wich alluz
marks a strickly Democratic community. Its
a singler fact that we never flourish in a soil
wapted to wheat wich het ralerodes thro it.
)' heat will make whiskey, but its too fine
flavored, and the facilities for gettin it to
market makes it too high in price. The
IDa, ‘ inrented ralerodes struck a blow
at the hart uv the party. For our purposes
we want a little of the fiery whiskev wich
corn produces, and want that little strong,
out Up is a digression.
As-this pint the enthoosiwn was ,nr.-
wunded. The Democrisy wnz al! alive, but
«re wasn’t that docility among the nigger,
that I expected. These cusses, ez soon ez
they sow. me, and learned my bizniss
took to the woods, and we hed to go after
em tu electioneer em, wich the Democrisy
did, takin their dorgs with em. It wuz a
cheerin site to see em follerin the black
cusses thro the swamps, the moosic uv the
yelpyt uv the dorgs cheerin us on to our
work. Two or three refoozed to, and their
bodies, like John Brown’s, wuz left a danglin
in the air, while their soles went a marchin
on. We beleeve in every man a choosin for
hisself, and in the greatest freedom uv speech
and opinion, providin alluz ther aint nothin
incenjary in it. Ez everythin that’s sed agin
us we count incenjary it simplifies matters
wonderfly.
I got one good meetin uv em, however,
for wich I wuz indebted to a Noo York dry
goods merchant, who is here makin a
strenuous effort to red tablish his trade,
wickedly and crooelly broken up by the
wicked oupleasantness which Linkin inau
gerated by resistin the South in 1861. He
is a conservative who is after trade, and
consekenlly is willin to do anythin. He
told me uv a nigger funeral to take place
in the afternoon, and suggested that a score
uv us arm ourselves, surround em, and
keep em in whether or no, onlil I hed
made my speech. “So aukshus mn I,” he
sed to a retailer uv dry goods (it wuz dry
goods be wuz sellin, by a singler coinci
dence), “for the success uv correct princi
ples, that 1 will guard one of the doors my
self.”- Arid he did it, swearin at Yankees
all the time, and pronouncing cow, “caow,”
the while. I notist it, but it mattered not to
me. Why shood we be pertikler ez to the
tools we yooze ? When we shake hands
with sich, can’t we put on gloves ?
We surrounded the church and notified em
that they coodn’t pass till we wuz thro, and
I commenced my speech aud spoke it thro,
I insisted that theb interests lay with ther
kind,'good masters—that they had bin gre
vously deceved in sposin that there wuz any
antagouism between the races. Who, I
askt, gave the colored man the right to vote
in Noo York? The Democrasy. Who gave,
the colored man the right to stay in Ohio ?
The Democrasy. What Vice President hed
a nig—or rather a colored woman for a wife,
wich wood hev bin mistress uv the White
House, hed the President been a Republikin,
and consekenlly worth our while to assassi
nate him ? Richard M. Johnson, a Dinio
krat. Who hev bin—
At this pint » pert mulatto remarked that
he hed a word to say, and I gave place to
him. Lie wuz himself a conservative nigger
uv the most conservatest kind. He shood
vote with his white brothers cheerfully, but
not for tlie reasons wich tbe speaker (mean
ing me) hed given. He shood do it from a
higher, holier motive than any advanced.
He shood do it from motives uv consanguin
ity. He hed alluz bin a humble nigger, be
leeviu himself to be one uv an inferior race,
but since he hed bin free he bed bin search
in his pedigree. He hed bin agreeably sur
prised. He found he hed tbe best blood uv
Virginny coursin thro his veins. The Con
fedrit candidate for Congris wuz his half
brother, halleloogy, and he wuz closely re
lated to two-th rds uv all sed candidate’s sup
porters, bless de Lord, and uv course he’d
vote for him, for the man that woodn’t take
care uv his own blood is wuss nor an infidel.
He felt grateful to the conservative candi
date’s family. ,
Troo, he wuz half nigger, but he prided
hisself on the tother half. He felt all the
pride uv race uv wich he hed he-erd so
much. His ancestors (on his ladder’s side)
bed bin probably the comrades uv
ton, and he woodent degrade hisself by
rnixen with men uv no family from the
North. He wuz poor but bis projeniiors
(on his fadder’s side) wuz gentlemen, bless
de Lord, and he stood on blood.
And the niggers, bustin with laster at the
rage wich they saw depicted onto the coun
tenances uv ther white frends, got up to
leave. We tried to stop em, so that I cood
speek further, but ez they hed more revolv
ers than we hed, and didn’t appear to be
disinclined to yoose em, we didn’t attempt
force. The most uv these niggers bed bin
in tbe servis, and yoo can’t make men
docile who hev borne arms. I shel con
tinyoo my work, however, never mindin
these temporary backsets.

Official
Proclamation by the Governor.
Whereas, Law-abiding citizens from many
sections of the State unite in communications to
this Department, setting forth that misguided
persons are stirring up strife among the people;
by unlawful acts of violence against the person
aud property of citizens, ou account of political
opinion ; and that persons distinguished for their
hostility to the Government of the United States,
aud of this State, are promoting said acts of vio
lence by publicly denouncing the laws as revolu
tionary, unconstitutional and void, and declaim
ing in a manner tending to excite resistance to the
lawful authority of the State, and to persuade
others to join m a combined resistance to and a
disregard of the civil rights of oitueue; and
whereas, it is further communicated that the inev.
itable result of said acts of violence and insurrec
tionary appeals is already becoming manifest in
the rapid spread of a disposition on the part of
those who maintain the validity of the laws of
Congress, and ot the State Governments estab
lished thereunder, to protect themselves by arms
from said acts of violence, and from said combi
nations against civil rights; and whereas,
the General Assembly has adopted the following
preamble and resolution : “Whereas, it being the

been granted by the Executive for the formation
of armed or unarmed organizations ot any kind'or
character; and that the drilling or exercising Jn

The American, Artisan
UNITED STATES AND FOREIGN
PATENT AGENCY.
189 Broadway, New York.
Messrs. BROWN, COOMBS & CO , Proprie
tors of the AMERICAN ARTISAN, offer their
best services to inventors, as Solicitors of Ameri
canaud Foreign Patents. Mr. Henry T.Browk,
of this firm, has had more than twenty-two years'
experience in ttqp. profession, both in this country
and Europe, and his long practice has made
him personally known to thousands of inven
tors and patentees. The applications for the
patents upon many of tlie greater and more im
portant in ventionsol the present century have been
prepared by him. Messrs. Brown,Coombs & Co.,
are thoroughly familiar with all the rules and re
gulations instituted for the rapid transaction of
business with the United States Patent Office, and
the general practice in the Patent Bureaus of vari
ous European countries; and this knowledge ren
ders them confident that their port experience, with
their present unequaled facilities, enables them to
elaborately aud yet speedily prepare all the docu
ments required by law in applications for patents,
and to promise their clients an absolute certainly
ofsuccess'in theirjelforts to.obtam Letters; Patent, for
inventions that are really new and useful. Parti
cular care is given to the execution of the accurate
Yvh'" 1 ’ alwuvu utwimnanv avo»v
application for a patent , and they employ none but
the most efficient draughtsmen. 'The best evidence
of the manner in which Messrs. Brown, Coombs
& Co.’s business is performed, is, that the “Amer
ican Artisan PateMT Agency,” during the three
years of its existence, has been the most successful
institution of the hind ever established.
The principal offices of Messrs. Brown. Coombs
& Co. are situated at 189 Broadway, opposite John
street, New York, in the most central part of the
city. This location is one of very easy access by
strangers, inasmuch as it, is within a stone's throw
from the City Hall. All inventors temporarily so
jouruiug in the metropolis are invited to visit tliis
establishment. In|the majority of instance no model
or drawing of an invention will be necessary on
the first interview, as a mere oral description by
tlie visitor will ordinarily suffice to convey such
aknowlcdge of his In vention as will enable Messrs.
Brows, Coombs A Co. to definitely determine
whether a machine or process is new or old—paten
table or not. The office hours are from Si.M.
to 5 p.m.
Messrs. Browx, Coomhs & Co. are prepared to
furnish to pwraoM residing at a distance from New
York—free of charge— written opinions as to
whether inventions contain any features of paten
table novelty; to do tbi* they simply require a
sketch or rough model of the machine or other in
vention that is supposed to be new, together with
a brief description of tbe same, and as soon as pos
sible thereafter a letter of the best advice is mail
ed to the person desiring the information. These
opinions are formed from their Wn mature exper
ience; but if an inventor desires to know, positively,
whether his incipient idea has ever been embodied
iu a machine or procesa already patented, bis wisest
course will be to have n preliminary examination
made at tho United States Patent office by Messrs.
Brown, Coombs & Co., who will make a special
searclqamong all the records of that institution, and
then promptly forward a foil and carefully written
report as to the patentability ol the invention un
der examination. For this'labor the small lee ot
$5 is payable’in advance; aud the i emit lance
should be accompanied by a sketch of tbe invention
and a few lines of writing describing the same,
and distinctly stating those points of novelty which
the inventor desires to have protected by Letters-
Patent.
Patents for new aud useful inventions are now
granted for the term of seventeen years. Tho
first instalment oftbe Government lee is sls, Which
sum—together with fifty cents revenue stamp-tax
on the power of attorney— is payable in advance,
ou applying for the patent; and S2O additional are
due to the Government when the Letters-Patentare
allowed. The Agency lee is from $25 upward, ac
cording to the labor involved; but m alf cases onr
charges will be as moderate as possible in the pre
paration of drawings and all necessary documents.
This fee is not payable until after the application
Ims been prepared and the case is ready to be sent
to Washington. Messrs. Brown, Coombs A Co.
have a branchin Washington so that all applicit
lions made through them can have every necessary
attention in their passage through tbe Patent office
Inventors applying for patents must furnish
models of their machines, whenever possible, for
the inspection of tho Examiners in the Patent
Office; but if the invention is a chemical composi
tion, samples of all the ingredients will be neces
sary. Each of these should be marked with tbe in
ventor’s name., then carefully boxed, and sent (by
express, prepaid), together wi(h the first instalmeri
of the Goveinment fee, to Messrs Brown, Coombs
& Co. When the model is small a.nd light, it can
be conveniently and cheaply seutby mail The
model must not exceed one foot in any of its dimens
ions, unless it is of such a character that it is im
practicable.
Patents, except those for designs, are granted
on equal-terms to citizens and all foreigners, except
inhabitants of Canada and some others of the
British American Provinces.
Besides patents or new and iisefiu inventione.
there are also granted patents for designs.
Design-patents are not now, as formerly, limited
strictly io ornamental ’ configuration ; but under
Section 11 of the Act of March 2, 1861, any new
/ormof'any article,ornuytm/irettfen orjigure upon
the surface of any article or material, by whatever
means or process produced, can be jiateiited. Un
der this Act, patentees are entitled to the exten
sion of their respective pateuta for the term of seeen
years from the day on which said patents shall ex
pire, upon the same terms und restrictious as are
now provided for the extensions of Letters-Patent.
Among the numerous subjects foi patents of this
class may be particularly mentioned—castings of
all melals, parts of machines, household finniture
and utensils; glassware, hardware of all kinds,
corn ices,aud other interior and exterior decorations
of buildings; also, designs for woven and printed
fabrics, dress and upholstery trimmings, aud har
ness labels and trade mark's for medicines, per
fumery, and all preparations, compositions, or
merclmndi-e, put up in bottles, boxes, or other
packages, are suitable subjects; also, the forms of
such bottles, boxes, or packages themselves, and
envelopes, likewise nil works of art,as statuary,
busts, compositions in alto or basso-relievo. The
Government fee on a design-patent for 3 j years is
slo;i7 years, sls; 14 years, S3O. No models of
designs are required; bnt duplicate drawings or
photographs must be furnished- The specification
to accompany the drawings or photographs re
quires to be prepared with great care. Messrs
Brown, Uuom bb & Co. give very particular at
tention to this branch of their business. Their
chargefor preparing applications for design-patents
is generally aoout sls. Design patents are only
granted to American citizens or to aliens who have
resided one year in the United States and made
oath of their intention to become citizens thereof.
The facilities of Messrs. Brown, Coombs & Co
for obtaining patents in the various European
countries are equal if not superior to those of any
other in the United States. With regard to their
qualifications for such business, it need only be
stated that Mr. Brown has had the prepara
tion of more European applications than "any
othei person in this country, Messrs. Brown,
Coombs & Co., besides having a branch office in
Washington, have their own agencies in the
principal capitals of Europe. A circular relating
to foreign patent business will be furnished free
on application personally or by mail.
Messrs. Brown, Ct. Mbs & Co. also attend to in
terferences, the extensions of expiring Letters-
Patent, and all proceedings relating to patents be
fore the United States Patent Office.
All letters, packages, boxes, etc., should be ad
dressed, prepaid,as follows:

Asiatic Cholera ia China.
ALMOST EVERY CASE
CURED WITH
PAIN KILLEN.
■ ■ .0 ' ;
Read the following letter from
Rev. R. Telford, Missionary in China, now
visiting his home in Pennsylvania:
Washikgton, Pa., June 25,1866
Messrs. Perry Davis di Non, Providence, R. I. :
Dear Sirs—During a residence of some ten
years as a Missionary in Siam and China, I found
your vegetable Pa’iu Killer a most valuable
remedy for that fearful scourge, the Cholera.
In administering the medicine, I found it most
effectual to give a teaspoonful of Pain Killer in a
gill of hot water sweetened with sugar; then,
after about fifteen minutes, begin to give a table
spoonful ot the same mixture every minute antil
relief was obtained. Apply hot applications to
the extremities. Bathe the stomach with Pain
Killer, clear aud rub the limbs briskly. Os those
who had the cholera, and took the medicine faith
fully in the way stated above, eight out of ten
recovered. Yours, truly,
rnwT nnnn
A* AAMUCV/MAZ.
If an attack with Diarrhma, Dysentery, Or
Cramp Colic, don’t delay the use of the Pain
Killer. Hold by all modicine dealers Price, 25
cents, 50 cents, and <1 per bottle.
Manhattan, Kansas, April 17,1866.
Oeiitlemen— * • • I want to say a little
more about the Pain Killer. I consider it a very
valuable medicine, and always keen it on hand.
I have travelled a good deal Bince.l have been in
Kansas, and never without taking it with mt,
In my practice I used it freely for the Asiatic
Cholera, in 1842, and with better success than any
other medigino; I also used it here for cholera hr
1855, with the same (food result.
Truly, yours. A. HUNTING, M. D.
SwaTo, China.
Cheleia J * * * I regret to say that the
cholera has prevailed here of late to a fearful
extent. For the last three weeks, from ten to
fifty or sixty fatal cases each day has been re
ported. I should add that the Pain Killer, sent
recently from the Mission House, has been used
with considerable success during this epidemic.
If taken in season is generally effectual in check
ing the disease. .
Rev. CHARLES HA RD! NIG.
Sholapore, India.
[From the Portland Monthly.]
Summer Complaint and Dyaentery.
Bowel complaints seem just now to be the
prevailing clement, and any medicine that is
everywhere acceptable, and that is reliable, is a
very desirable acquisition. From what we have
seen, heard, and experienced. w« believe Davis’
Pain Killer is thia desideratum. For tire best
method of nslng it, we quote from the directions:
“For common bowel complaints, give one tea
spoouf nl in a gill of new milk and molasses, in
equal parts, stirred well together; lessen the dose
for children, (recording to the age., If the pain be
severe, bathe the bowels aud back with the medi
cine. This mode of treatment is good in cases of
the cholera morbus, sudden stoppages, ete. Re
peat the dose every hour.
“The quickest way I ever saw the dysentery
cured was by taking one spoonful of the Pain
Kilter in oue gill of milk and molasses stirred
well together and drank hot, at the same time
bathing the-bowels freely with mcdiciue. Let
the dose be, repeated every hour until the patient
is relieved.”
If every person who lias reason to fear this
•lisease would provide themselves with a bottle
of this medicine, aud use as occasion required, we
believe a great amount of suffering aud sickness
would be saved. je!2—2m
