—The following is the last of a series
of resolutions passed by the Union men
of Brooklyn, New York, at a recent
meeting. The dividing line is drawn
just exactly where it should be: Re
solved, That we hold, irrespective of the
past, all men now io be loyal, who are
earest in their endeavors to bring the
States together, distinct like the waves,
but one like the seaand that we hold
all men to he disloyal who, under any
pretext, stand in the way of this, the
consummation of all our efforts and all
our sacrifices.
—The New York Post (Radical),
speaking of Judge Sharkey’s statement
about the mortality of the negroes since
the war, says it they have fair play and
die out naturally, no one need trouble
himself about it. Exactly so. That is
about the amount of your sympathy for
the negro.
