TALK TO THE FEEEDMEN- The manifest incapacity of this class of our population to exercise the elective franchise, which has been thrust upon them by the folly of Radicalism, has caused many to turn with disgust from the entire race as being beyond the reach of proper instruction. Thus left to themselves in abso lute ignorance of what voting means, it is not strange that they have fallen easily into the traps prepared for them by Radical emissaries and designing men of our own section. Many of them are so inflated with ignorance and vanity that they will follow their deceivers to their own destruction regardless of the efforts of their only real friends, the Southern white people, to teach them the right course; but there are some of them who retain enough of reason to wish to learn what is right, and who would be glad to be taught their duty by their friends who have never deceived them. Such should be told honestly that their interest is involved in the prosperity of the white people who live here. The negroes have no friends who will give them employment, but the white residents of the country. Ihe radicals are not going to stay here with the negroes, and in the States where they will go when they have robbed our people all they can, they will not allow the negroes to follow them. They have not fulfilled their promises to give the negroes land and mules; but they have wrested from them the last dime they could, under all manner of false pretenses. They allowed the negroes scats in the Legislature with them until they had used them to secure the offices to their pets ; now they seek to ex pel them. Cannot the negroes sec their dis honesty in this? They hold that negroes are competent to elect them to office, but they do not think negroes should hold office. Yet they were willing to let them sit in the Legislature until they were done using them. l)o the negroes think this shows a kind disposition toward them? The question of conceding the right of ne cro suffrage is not open for discussion. Right or wrong, they have the ballot, and it is no more Jiuwiliating to endeavor to show them what to do with it, than to allow them to be misled by their enemies and ours. We con cede nothing in telling them the truth, that their interests and ours are the same. Tell them it is not our object to reduce them again to slavery. Show them that we must’live in friendship, or their race must give up the country, as the Indians have done. Those who urge them to oppose the white race are therefore urging them to their own ruin.— Prove to them that they must make friends of the owners of the land, if they wish to live here. And particularly assure them protection in doing right; and see that those who are dispos ed to act in concert with us, are not intimidated by base negroes or baser white men, who have left their own race and the path of right, to ele* vate themselves on the ruin of the ignorant negroes. It is useless to reason with them in a strain above their comprehension ; but they can understand every-day facts such as enor mous prices Radicalism makes thorn pay for all they buy, while it reduce* the price of all they sell. Show them these things, and be with them at the polls, and they can be con trolled for tlie right. Greeley Alarmed. In a contribution to the Independent, Horace Greeley says: ‘‘Men and Brethren! We must carry Connecticut, New York, New Jer - sey and Pennsylvania for Grant and Colfax; With these—or even all of them—there can be no mistake as to the result. Without at least least two of them, All is in doubt’' llow innocently Horace talks! lie knows that his party has not the ghost of a chance to carry the States mentioned at tho ballot box ; but he pretends to think that the Radi cals hope to succeed by the vote of the people. The real object is to perpetuate that madness which has enabled them to control the country since 18f>0, but which they know is now rap idl/rljing out. They cannot conceal their foul's, and the victory is almost achieved when the-enemy acknoweledge their terror. A business letter from New Orleans to a gentleman in Atlanta, referring to the political situation, says “I am glad to inform you that I have never known such a change ia the col ored population as has taken place hero in the last month. I don’t think there will be one sixth of the negro voters who will vote the itoaWl ticket in November in Louisiana and Mississippi. Legislative. , The proceedings of the Legislature amount to doing nothing at nine dollars a day. They have been amusing themselves testing the eligibility of the negro members since they havo no further need of their votes to secure the election of white radicals to office. Os course the Honorable negro members object to being ejected, as they find it more agreeable to hold their seats at the wages of Legislators, than to work in the cotton fields. The Speaker decided that the negroes should have unlimited time to speak in their own defense ; as it was manifest that they meant to speak to the end of time they were limited to one hour each. The following is a sample speech in defense of the right of the negroes to hold seats: Mr. Clower, (colored,) took the stump to ‘inaugurate some new ideas.” Mr. Speaker, dis is a oncoustitutional question. I never thought I'd evor be a lawyer, but I'm here etudin law in do Ledislatur hall. I larns law here. You wants to turn us out on de same reason dat you use to turn us outo’de kitchen, Black color is do puttiest color in de world.— Why do you war black close ? Because yju know, gemmen, its de puttiest color. Talk about color. Didn't you kiss de same Bible what I did, when we took de oaf. Gemmen, yon got to cum up an facede music ; you can’t dance back’ard. I tink de gemmen from Floyd will wifdraw his resolution when I git done here. I'se always been a nigger sharp enough to make a fortune, and you can’t fool dis nig ger. I don’t keer ’bout what your price is hero a day to make laws. (Just here a message from the Senate was received in reference to its action on the Usury bill Glower remarked that he had hoped it was a bill hi “release de niggers.”] He proceeded. I don t keer es I had not been in de New' Nited States but one day ; I’se a citizen, and am ’titled to a seat here. Yar better be makin’ laws to protect us poor people ; de Ku Kluxes is about to git us already. I ripresent two thousand people here, “w ho am de very damsel of de eye.” I done worked in de field and educated all dese white folks' Indies, and now claim a seat here to make laws for de education of de colored ladies, and you say I aint got no right here. Wbv, gemmen, de idea is obstitule. You come up here wid a little ole resolution, dat aint wuss a fly, to try to ’spell us. If you do dat. I’ll git my hat and go to de door, and tell you I'm gwine away to “prepare a way fur my people,” in de language of de postles, I’ll come back agin, shore. Stop, white folks, and take up dat ting off de table, [meaning the resolution] and fro it away. I’se guinc to talk till you wifdraw it. When I go, I don’t want no Dimicrut to take my seat; I want it again. Coming out from Among Them. We clip the following article from the Savan nah News <£• Herald. Speaking of the gentle men who recently declined to have their names published as Radical Electors on the Grant and Colfax ticket, that paper of the 30th ult., says: “Judge E. N. Harden, of Cutlibert, has not only declined to allow the use of his name as a Grant elector, but has come out decidedly in support of Seymour and Blair. A few days ago Hon. W. W. Boyd, of Dahlonega, another nominee on the Grant ticket announced his intention to support the Democratic candidates for President and Vice-President. We have already announced the refusal of Col. Aaron Wilbur to be a candidate for’elector on the Radical ticket. Thus three gentlemen, one third of Ihe whole number of electors on their ticket have repudiated their nomina-* tion. We now call upon tho scalawag organs 'who are pillowing the names of those gentlemen under the editorial heads, in company with such charactersas Bryant, Iligbee, Farrow and others, to do them the simple justice of with drawing them from a position which they re fuse to occupy. If the editors of those papers have no regard for truth they should at least take care not to lay themselves liable to an action for defamation of character. It would be a nice question for a jury, the assessment of a just amount of damages for parading & gentleman’s name in large capitals as the elector on the Radical electoral ticket.” Reconstruction in Arkansas. —We" learn from the Helena (Ark.) Clarion that Phillips county has been thoroughly reconstructed, under the new carpet-bag constitution now in operation in that State. All of the’old incum bents in office have been displaced, and their places filled by the miserable scalawags and carpet-baggers, for whose special benefit the State government has been reorganized. The office of Circuit Judge has been filled by the appointment of one Captaiu Bennett, belong ing to the staff of the commanding General; an officer of the Freodmcn's Bureau is County and Circuit Court Clerk, and the county asses sor is a negro. The representative in the Legislature from the same county, the mem bers of which are elected by the people for five years, is a negro, who, in addition to his legislative honors, heads the State Radical ticket as Elector for the State at large. The free institutions of a country when lost have ever been wrested away after the termi nation of civil war when the party in power began the work of proscribing tho minority and perpetuating its own supremacy. A military leader has ever been, chosen to the highest civil position; and under color of superior patriotism and virtue, the work of self aggrandisement and corruption lia6 gone on until the liberties of the state were overthrown. A Caruet-Bagob* Defined. — A genuine carpet-bagger is thus imam by the Charleston Mercury : “A man with a lank head of dry tour—a lank stomach and long legs, club knees and splay feet, dried legs and lank jaws, with eves like a fish and a mouth like a shark.— Add to this, a habit of sneaking and dodging about in unknown places—habiting and co habiting with negroes in dark dens and back streets—a look like a honnd and the smell of a skunk. He would rob a dead negro and forge his deed father's name to a draft for five dollars. The Grant Mollification at Council Bluff. In proof of w hat we have said concerning the shabby reception given to Hiram Ulysses by the Black Republicans of Council Bluff, on Tuesday last—in fact no reception at all—wc subjoin the following from the Jacobin organ in this city, of yesterday. The Nonpareil says: " “As they passed through Broadway, Gen. Grant acknowledged the salutes of thqse who had come out to welcome him. THERE WAS NO LOUD CHEERING NOR UNBECOMING BEHAVIOR ON TIIE PART OF THE CROWD. It was known that these Generals were on a tour of business and not of sensation. The characteristic quietness of General Grant, and his desire to escape unnecessary show was respected by our citizens who permitted him to pass among them with the dignity which is peeu liar to him. The profound respect which this genuine man, great leader and prospective President inspires among the people, was shown by them in the salutes and greetings which they gave him as he rode through their midst. Ilad the occasion been proper and hail the heroes of the day courted demonstra tion, our people could have rent the air with cheers for the leveler of Richmond, the explor er of Georgia, and the hero of the Shenandoah.” A correct newspaper account of this affair would scarcely be believed by the people abroad, were it not endorsed as above by a Jacobin organ. When it is considered that prominence was given by the press of the eity concerning the hour of his arrival; that Coun cil Bluffs lias a population of about twelve thousand ; that Grant and his party were in the heart of the city ; that there were not three dozen persons present to welcome him ; that there was no “welcome” either in words or by the raising of hats, except by one individual who bowed to the “genuine man,” a correct idea may be formed elsewhere of the mortifi cation which the General aud his friends felt on the occasion. Grant is dead before the people, and the doom of Black Republicanism is manifest on all sides ! Thank God that its day of infamy is setting in a hopeless sky, never again to dawn!— Council Bluffs Demo crat. “Suppose.” —Suppose Seymour and Blair should be elected. Suppose Seymour should die or be “put out of the way,” rebel fashion. Suppose Frank Blair, the candidate of the rebels, should then, as he would, become Pres ident.—Seneca Falls (N. 17,) Courier. Suppose your grandmother was your grand father. Suppose the big elephant at Albany was a mastodon. Suppose Ben Butler was an honest man. Suppose you were about as smart as Horace Greeley, or knew half as much as you think you know. Suppose the moon was made of green cheese, and you were a skipper and had your home there. Suppose (just for fun) that Grant should join the temperance society, and stop talking horse. Suppose the great “snaik” in Tennessee was a tad pole all covered with chicken feathers. Suppose you were arrested for knowing more than the law allows, or because your ears are too long.— What then, eh?— N Y. Recorder tfe Democrat. Suppose travelers were robbed and murder ed by’ honest men, and thieves and murderers were all*houest and peaceable citizens—sup pose the sun should rise in the West and set in the East —suppose every imaginable impos sibility—and then you may bo prepared to suppose Radicals to be actuated by honest patriotism ; but by no imaginable stretch of credulity can the people suppose that those fifteen hundred millions of dollars they have paid in taxes since the war closed have been honestly applied to the payment of the na tional debt. Do the Radicals suppose the people have any common sense? During the second session of the 40th Con gress there were 2,786 penknives distributed among the members of the House, at a cost of $5,550, or p,t. a cost of over $2 each. There were 194 members of that body, thus making fourteen knives and a fraction to each member, or about S3O for each member in penknives during one session of Congress. A Clean Sweep in the North if the South is Peaceful. —A letter to an influential gen tleman in New Orleans, from a friend in New York, speaks in strong terms of the necessity of preserving the peace under all circumstances throughout the South, and especially in New Orleans, The provocations may be great, but they will only be temporary as to duration or effect. Before the close of November, Radical power will be virtually at an end. The letter goes on ta say: “We are certain of electing Seymour without the vote of a single Southern State, hut with trouble in New Orleans we will be seriously damaged in the North. * * * Pennsylvania will give us a clear majority of 40,000, which will settle Indiana, Illinois and the remainder of the West. Doolittle writes that he is amazed at the change in Wisconsin. Be of good cheer, as day is breaking. Cheer ing news of this nature is brought us from all points of the compass. Grant stock is con stantly going down.” Well Told. —The next morning the judge of the police court sent for me. I went down and he received me very kindly, had heard of the wonderful things I had accomplished by knocking down five persons, said I was a prom ising young man, and all that. Then he offered a toast “ guilty or not guilty.” I responded in a brief but eloquent speech, setting forth the importance of the occasion that had brought us together. Alter the usual ceremonies I was requested to loan the city ten dollars. Congress at its last session voted 1,000 Springfield muskets to each Congressional District. lion. Horatio Seymour wisely and significantly remarks: “Never before in the history the country has Congress thus ta ken a inenwsing attitude toward its electors, and it is thereto** not strange that thoughtful men see in such stetson the proof that the | radicals are actuated by strouger motives than I the mere desire for power, that there is a dread ] of some exposure which drives there to acts i so desperate and so impolitic. ” [From the Atlanta Constitution.] A Letter from Gen. Blair. A RADICAL LIE NAILED TO THE COUNTER. Col. R. A. Alston, wrote to Gen. Blair, en closing a copy of the “Atlanta New Era. and referring the General to the lines at the head of that paper, in which he quotes General Grant as saying “Let us have Peace,” and General Blair as saying “Lotus have Mur. He received the following letter in reply, which will show to the people how unblush ingly the Radical press persists in falsehood, to accomplish its wicked purposes of destroying this Government: Fort Saunders, Wyoming Territory. ) August 18, 1868. j Col. Jl. A. Alston, Atlanta , Ga.— Dear Sir : Your note in regard to the misrepresentations of the carpet-bag editor at Atlanta received. This is the business for which he is paid and by which he makes his living. I would not advise you or any other gentleman to notice him in any manner, except to correct, through the press, any falsehood which you may con sider injurious to our cause. I have never made any such statement as ho attributes to me. On the contrary, lam for that policy whtch alone can gice peace to the country; and although Gen. Grant says “let us have peace,” ho seeks to achieve it only by the military power and actual war on the principles of the Government. Yours truly, Frank P, Blair. Choose Between them. Seymour and the regulation of the suffrage by the people of the States; Grant and Con gressional enforcement of negro suffrage. Which will you have ? Seymour and the abolition of the Internal Revenue swindle; Grant and Wasbburne's swarms of office-holders. Seymour and civil liberty; Grant and des potism. Seymourand restoration ; Grant and destruc tion. Seymour and white supremacy ; Grant and negro domination in ten States of the Union. Seymour and economy ; Grant and Wash burne's hands in the Treasury. Seymour and the abolition of the Freed men's bureau ; Grant and the maintenance of four millions of blacks at the expense of the North. Make your choice ! How to Entertain Guests. —I pray von, O excellent wife, not to cumber yourself arid me to get a rich dinner for this man or this woman, who has alighted at our gate nor a bed chamber made ready at too great a cost.— These things, if they are curious in, they can get for a dollar at any village. But lot this stranger see, if he will, in your looks, in your accent and behavior, your heart and earnestness, your thought and will, what he cannot buy at any price, at any village or city and whieh he may well travel fifty miles, nnd dine sparely, and sleep hard, in order to behold. Certainly, let the buard bo spread and the bed be dressed for the traveler; but let the emphasis of hospitality be in these things.— Honor to the house where they are simple to the verge of hardship, so that the intellect is awake nnd sees the laws of the universe, the soul worships truth and love ; honor and cour tesy flow into all deeds. The Rads give it up that, of the Cabinet at least, Randall, Browning McCulloch and Welles are in favor of Seymour, while Seward and Schofield are against Grant and Colfax.— It cost them many tears to see an old leader like Seward deserting them, and they have a queer way of chronicling his departure. [ Richmond Enquirer. Best Book for Everybody. —The new illus trated edition of Webster’s Dictions) y, con taining three thousand engravings, is the best book for everybody that the press lias pro duced in the present century, nnd should be regarded as indispensable to the well-regula ted home, reading-room, library, and place of business.— San Francisco Golden Era. Look at the Radical humbug. That party does not claim that the reconstruction acts are constitutional. It did not dare to have the question decided by the Supreme Court, with Chief-Justice Chase at its head. The party leader, Thad Stevens, boldly announced that the whole reconstruction legislation was “outside the Constitution.” Congress admit ted the same when it tried to intimidate the Supreme Court. These acts were revolution ary. This ground has been taken by the De mocratic party, and by a large share of the Radical party. And now the Radical organs are whining about this. The question will be decided in December, and the Democratic par ty will follow that. If reconstruction is uncon stitutional, it will be wiped out as it should be. Let the Supreme Court decide. A Southern gentleman told us the other day the reason the Southern people loved Beast Butler—“ Where their treasure is, there shall the heart he also.” An old darkey in Alabama while watching the monkeys in a menagerie spoke thusly : “Dem children got too much sense to couie out dat cage ; white folks cut their tails off, and set ’em to votin' and makin’ Constitewtions.” "When a Radical is asked what is the cause of the prostration of trade, the derangement of commerce, the high price of gold, and the general decline of the national credit, ho» ex claims: “Let us have peace.” In order to se cure this inestimable blessing, his party places loaded muskets in the hands of a negro mili tary company and tells its members, in march ing along a crowded thoroughfare, if anything occurs to displease the colored brethren, to lire at once into the throng on the sidewalks, and kill any honest pedestrians whS may ho fool ishly exposing thoir persons. This is Radical “peace.”— J’hil. Age, lladiculs Bead. The white men of the Southern States have said to the negroes that, if they should vote for the carpet-baggers in the coming eioctions, they must look to the carpet-baggers for em ployment. In other words, that a difference in political opinions, and an expression of it at the ballot-box, would be hold as a good rea son for refusing to give them work by their old masters. For this the planters have been severely denounced by the Jacobin press. Such tactics to control the votes of workingmen cannot be justified in an ordinary state of society. It is a matter for debate whether the crimes of the reconstruction infamy will justify them. However this may be, there arc a few ques tions bearing on this point which are respect fully submitted to the black-nnd-tau party. Did Edwin M. Stanton, when Secretary of War, furnish transportation to wounded Re publican soldiers to return home and vote, and did he refuse transportation to wounded Dem ocratic soldiers unless they would pledge themselves to vote the Republican ticket ? Wero the operatives in New England mills having contracts with the government, threat ened by government agents with discharge unless they should vote the Republican ticket? Did Jacobin newspapers at that time protest against such proscription and cruelty ?—Chi cago Times. The Radical papers spend a great deal of ink aud try to make a great deal of capital about what such Southern men as Hampton, Cobb, Toombs, &c., said down South. That is till “played out.” YVhat have you Radicals done, and what do you propose to keep on doing, is the question now before the poeple ! As to what men say, whose hands are fet tered and “life’s light lied away,” makes no difference. We are after what men have done who have been free to do what they would. Louisville Democrat Advantage of Years. — You are getting into years. Yes, but the years aro getting into yon* the ripe, rich years, the genial mellow years, the lusty, luscious years. One by one of the crudities of your youth are falling off from you—the vanity, the uncertainty. Nearer and nearer you are approaching yourself. You are consolidating your forces. You are becom - ing master of jouj situation. Or the ruins of shattered plans you find your vantage ground. Your broken hones, your thwarted purposes, your defeated aspirations, become a staff of strength by which you mount to subliiner heights. With self-possession and self-com mand of all things, the title deed of creation, forfeited, is reclaimed. The king has come to his own again. Earth and sea and sky pour out their largess of love. All the clouds pass down to lay their treasure at your feet. ’l'iie Radical Press Repudiating the Car pet-Baggers.—There aro large delegations to the House from large Southern States that do not contain one man reputable in private life, or reputable in ability. “God only knows what we are to do with these creatures,” ex claimed one of the leading members of the Republican party, and one of the most promi nent Congressmen. “They seem to me with out character at home ; they havo not very much hope of retaining their hold on their districts after their first election ; and a good many of them are sure to go in for making the most they can out of their positions while they have them.” We certainly have got a very large elephant upon our hands.— Cincin nati Gazette (Had.) Tiif, Devil to Pay in the Radical Camp. —The Atlanta Constitution says a certain indi vidual now in Atlanta, than whom no one has played a more prominent part in the Negro- Radical usurpation scheme, threatens to ex pose the enormities of his party. He claims to have it in bjack and white, that Gordon beat Bullock 6,000 votes for Governor ; that he has sacrificed his honor and self-respect in the service of the Radical party ; that instead of being rewarded according to his deserts, by those whom he lifted to power, he.has been given the cold shoulder and incontinently shelved ; that he is determined to stand it no longer, and finally, that if the Ile-eow docs not do something for him, and do it “right quick,” lie intends to throw such a bombshell into his pen as will turn his horns tailwards. —Columbus Sun. Democratic Enthusiasm. —From all quar ters of the Union comes the intelligence of the popular enthusiasm for the Democratic nomi nees. Everything is hopeful; but action, ac tion, is necessary to success, and should be the watchword and rallying cry of the De mocracy everywhere.— Banner of the South. Rumored Defalcation by a Southern Col lector.—The Washington correspondent of the New York Herald says: “There is a large defalcation, anuunting to many thousands, has been discovered in the accounts of a Collector of a Southern port who has recently been superseded. The discovery was made by the officer who succeeded him. The amount is fixed at $200,000, but this is evidently much exaggerated.” Those Illesseil Kesnlts. The great argument of the Radicals seems to be this: Grant is not elected the results of the late war will be lost. The results which these precious patriots are so anxious to keep, may be catalogued as fol lows : Negro outrages in tho South. Stealing and defaulting by Government offi cers. Enormous taxation. An overwhclnming public debt. High prices for all the necessaries of life. A depreciated currency. A general stagnation in business. A total lack of confidence in Government. And a Pandora’s box fifll of social and polit ical evils, all growing out of the .'ate war. Those who wish to preserve these results, and multiply thorn year by year, will vote for Grant. — Ex.
