Expelled from the “Loyal League!’
Now, gentlemen, permit me to intro
duce \du into the sanctum san-torum
political humbug. I promised tins,
I’ll do it.
At the first door you give two light
taps am! whisper through a hole there**
in, “Loyal Men.” the door opens. —
You tnoveon t i ascconddoor and give

N <iu whisper “Musi Rule,” and are

and welcomed liy the “(lorn! Chair
man,” m the following words : “The
good and true are always welcomed,
etc.”
You have now marched round the
room and placed before an altar on
which is spread the American I’lag.
Here also lies open a Bible, and a book
with the old original, unaltered Gon
siituiion of the United States, gth ol
our fathers, as it was, is, and ever
should be, unchanged.
There, too, lie cross and two common
swords, such as are wore by army
surgeons. Between the points is a
mysterious looking bronze chalice,
tilled with something, the smell ol
which reminds you ol “Old Robert
son.”
On your right, rt a small altar, stands
long, tank, lean “Forty Acres, behind
you, at another desk or altar, stands a
once Provost Marshal. Around this
long, dark, dirty room, sit the Loyal
Leaguers, some black and some white,
and among them some ol our most
worthy citizens. There arc also not a
few whose “copper” sticks out through
ihe whitewash given by this Loyal
League. T ANARUS,
The gas is now darkened, “forty

opened out towards Heaven, mumbles

looking miller, not “ol Mansfield,
with b.mk and match in hand, and fires
the mysterious looking cup, which darts
up a flickering blue flame, such as is
represented as burning in the “Internal
H ides.” With your right hand on the
book, and tlie left in the air, you now
take the ‘oath of allegiance,’ known to
a'l, and arc most particulaily required
“to defend the Constitution of the
United States,” (uitiltcred), on which
vniir hand re-ts, and the Consti'ution
of the Stale Tennessee. ’»\ hat is the
latter Constitution? Who can tell you?
You are also sworn to keep the secret
of the L-ajruc, “to vote for none but
loyal men." «sec. In that long, dark,
dirty room, oil the right ol which stood

There is a great deal of other “tom

Gentlemen, fellow citizens, freemen
—look at this mummery —this political
humbug, and think that men of rank,
of standing, of fine intellect and kind
hearts are t sere. How c..n you account
for it, in this nineteenth century ? W hat
does it mean ? Has the Lord our God
forsaken us? Are we a people ? Has
he made us blind that our ruin may be
more sure ? Leaguers and madmen,
beware! Like blind Sampson, you
now sit beneath the tower, not ol
oppression, but of human rights.
* You are madly grasping the law and
the ballot box—the sure columns of
liberty. If you bow yourselves as be
d.d, the beautiful structure will fall, and
you and your children will perish
unwept under its ruins. Leaguers,
beware ! A day of retribution is com
ing. Blind guides leading the blind,
how can you escape ! Every act of
your own atul ol your leaders is calcu
lated to provoke blood. You know
this. Do you think to grind the Anglo-
Saxon race beneath the heel of your
deceived colored dupes ? You thrust
them once into the fiery furnace of war
to save your own children. You
emancipated them as a military neces
sity. As the last hope of our tottering
Government to save yourselves, you
and vour party laid violent hands on
the “colored element,” and you say
that it was all for love of that element.
Let us look at Mr. Lincoln’s letter
to A. G. Hodges, Esq., of Frankfort,
Ky., dated April 4th, 1H64 :
“1 believed the indispensable neces
sity for emancipation and arming the
blacks, would come. It came, and l
was, in my best judgment, driven to
the alternative of either surrendering
the Union, and with it the Constitution,
or laving strong hands on the colored
element and arming it. I choose the
latter.”
Further quotation is unnecessary,
comment useless; and now, dear Leagu
ers, remember, when you tell the poor
freed man, that it was your love that
made him free, you speak not the truth;
when you tell him you gave him the
right of suffrage on the same account,
when ’tvvas to save yout bacon, and
that you can do no more for the poor
freed man, than Balaam did for the poor
brute which refused to carry him.
Finally, “Loyal League No. 1,” I
beg leave to say to you, when you are
about to turn a member out without
cause, as Paul said to the jailor, “Do
which merits the
act of “Expulsion.” You kicked a
hole in the wall, and let the world in,
sure of the approbation of honest men,
and regardless of all y r our threats.
i am respectfully yours,
William Driver.
Gen. John C. Breckinridge. — This
distinguished American, now in Paris,
is about to leave with his family for
Canada. We hope the rumor is true
that Prasident Johnson has written a
letter requesting Gen. Breckinridge to
come home, and to lend his powerful
influence in the reconstruction and con
solidation of the Union. We regard
John C. Breckinridge as one of the
first statesmen of the world —a man of
whom any nation may be proud to call
him a citizan —a man whom the United
States can ill afford to keep in exile.
It is not true, as has been recently
stated, that “General Breckinridge was
a powerful advocate of secession,” On
the contrary, he was opposed to seces
sion, and with his ow n hand drew up
the “Crittenden Resolutions,” designed
to prevent si ce: s>ion. These ‘•resolu
tions” would have passed and averted
Ihe war but for the opposition of the
Northern Radicals. We repeat this
statement simply as a fact in history.
Regretting, as we most sincerely do,
to part with so noble a friend, we are
glad to announce the return of Gen.
Breckinridge to America, and we hope
soon to hear that he has not only ar
rived in Canada, but that he is restored
to his “old Kentucky Home,” and to
the thousands of warm hearts that are
anxiously waiting to welcome him.
John C. Breckinridge, who, as Vice
President of the United Stales, presided
so acceptably for four years over the
Federal States, and who subsequently
did and suffered so much for the inde
pendence of the Southern people, is
still in the prime of life, and, as we
believe, with a brilliant future before
him. During bis exile in Europe he
has received the highest honors from
the very highest classes of people, botli
of England and France, and in all cir
cles, social, political and diplomatic,
his very presence has called foi the
most flattering compliments to his
native country that produced so fine a
specimen of manhood. Our parting
w ord for Breckinridge shall be address
ed to the “All hail hereafter!” — Lon
don Cosmopolitan.
Dispatches have been received from
United States officers on the Mexican

More Filibustering.
It seems, from all accounts, that
another Filibustering expedition is fit
ting out. upon an extensive scale, in
the city of New York, with a view, it
is said, of displacing Juarez ; and sub
sequently installing Ortega, as the
permanent President of Mexico. Now
that Maximilian has been disposed of,
another war is about to be, if not al
ready, iuaugerated between factions
even among the Liberals. One faction
to be headed by Juarez, the party now
in power, and the other by Ortega,
who claims, wo believe, to bo the
rightful heir to the chief magistracy of
that Republic. Thii is done, it is
hinted, for some ulterior purpose in
which “Uncle Sam” has an interest,
judging from the following “scrap"
which w-e find floating around in the
papers of recent date :
“It is stated that a formidable filli
buster organization exists in New Y ork
city, with ramifications at New Or
leans, having for its purpose an invasion
of Mexico, »viP> a view to the displace
ment of Juarez by Ortega, in order to
advance certain ulterior schemes look
ing to the endorsement by this Gov
ernment of some £25.000,000 or
£30,000,000 Mexican bonds.
It appears that, in Mexico, one great
cricis, only gives way to another of
moregigantic proportions, which proves
the incapacity of that hybrid race of
people to govern themselves. How
could it be otherwise w ith a mongrel
set of Indians, negroes, and Spaniards,
none of whom have the least distant
idea of the liberties of a freeman, or ol
what constitutes a Republican Govern
ment. As well might so many striped
hyenas undertake to bring order out of
confusion, as for the present population
of Mexico to undertake to establish a
stable Government, founded upon the
nrincinles of “ius<L*<\i,wl mn-i
ivugubu iaw can exist a day among a
people possessing such bloou-thirsty
and rulc-or-ruin-principles as these
Mexican people have ever evinced since
they emerged from beneath the yoke
of monarehial oppression. It would
be a god-send to that country if some
great man who is aecquainted with the
principles of republican government,
would rise up and place himself at the
helm of the ship of State and direct it
to a port of peace and security. There
is no peace nor security for a citizen of
I that mock republic, as it is, ncr likely
I to be, as long as Mexicans rule Mexi
co. It is a burlesque upon republican
! Governments, and it would be far bet-
I ter for the future peace and prosperity
of that country that it should be placed
under the'‘direction of the one man
power or that they get someone to run
the rnacheen who is acquainted with the
kind of government they are trying to
mimic. But from present indications,
it would seem that, in regard to Mexi
co, somebody intends to make a spoon
or spoil a horn , if the following proc
lamation signitiss anything: —
New Orleans, July 13. —The fol
lowing proclamation is being circultat
ed on the Rio Grande border: Ameri
cans, shall a civilized people of a great
nation stand passive and by their silence
assent to the most barbarous act of the
19th century —the butchery in cold
blood, by a mongrel race of God-for
saken wretches, of a man, who, by
treachery. became a prisoner of war?
For what else was Maximilian but a
prisoner of war? He was certainly not
a fillibuster. He would not become
Emperor until a large and powerful
delegation of the representatives of the
Mexican government waited on him in
Europe and pressed his acceptance of
the Mexican crown, which he only ac
cepted after much reluctance. History
teaches that the Mexican people, for
nearly half a century, have been in
capable of self-government, while Max
imilian has shown to the world that he
was the best ruler they ever had. and
was doing all that a wise man could
do to develope the resources of that
country until betrayed by a Judas
Iscariot, in whom he had trusted. —
Maximilian was one of nature’s noble
men. because lie was an educated
gentleman, and ail his acts were
hightoned and chivalrous, and becoming
the brother of an Emperor. He was a
brave man, and died as a brave man
should die, but his life was the most i
beautiful pearl, sacrificed to beastly
avarice. The civilized world will
honor a lid revere his memory for his j
massv virtues, for ages to ceiiic, whfic
j ii will -brink with hori;or and uetesta- j
’ tion from the perpetrations of this most I
! dastardly outrage of- modern" history.

American continent. I.Pt us meet in
our strength, that we may give public

Christian world, are morally responsible

though it fall upon a Secretary of

men that ever lived. Honor to whom

The Last Blow. —Not content to
await the result of the elections, it
will be seen that the House has amen
ded the Senate bill by requiring State
officers to take the iron-clad. Senate
agrees, says the Macon Telegraph,
nine-tenths of the State officers in the
South, from the govenors down, will
be driven from office, and their places
filled by radical appointees. As there
isjio resisting these outrages, we can
only say, “lay on, Macduff.” The
more violent the storm, the sooner it
will end.
The Reconstruction Bill ha3 passed
both Houses of Congress, and been sent
to the President, who will probably
veto it, and then it will, it is asserted,
be passed over his head.
This bill is a modification of ibe
House bill, as published in this paper
of the 12th.
It is thought that just as soon as the
President sends in his veto of the re
cent supplemental bill passed by Con"
gress, that body will pass it over his
veto and then adjourn.

The SaMe America.
The “irrepressible nigger” hits not
only become a bye-word in the United
States, but a very troublesome fact.
These transplanted sorts of Africa,
whom the Creator lias clothed in per
petual mourning (some think as a mark
of punishment tor the sin of Cain, but
we believe as a coat of mail to rt sist
the arrows ol a vertical sun), having
recently been made “free men” in
America, have become a burthen to
themselves and an obstacle to the State.
We have no objection to giving the
privilege of the franchise to a negro,
provided he has the same qualifications
that are imposed on the white man.—
The color of his skin should be no bar
to citizenship. But universal suffrage
for either whit? or black is more than
anv populous Republic can bear ; and
therefore we would resiriotthe franchise
in all countries to men qualified by
certain conditions —age. property, ed
ucation, and innocence of lelony. —
This is just and It-ir, and leaves the
path of political promotion and honor
equally free and open to all. The
United States in allowing over} male
of the age of twenty-one —black or
white —to vote, is venturing on a dan
gerous experiment. The radicals pro
pose to go still further, and with Stuart
Mill and other “advanced tinkers'" in
the British House of Commons, are
now agitating the question of striking
the word “male” as well as the word
“white” from the Constitution. Under
the new regime it will be among the
political posibilities to elect a negro
President and a woman Vice Presi
dent —to send both negroes and women
to the State Legislatures, or to Con
gress —to place them on the benches of
the Judiciary, or to send them abroad
as foreign ministers. We do not pre
sume to write history in advance, but
we venture 10 put on record our belief
that no government can long endure
upon so precarious a foundation as
that ol universal suffrage. Ignorance,
vice, and poverty have no right to a
voice in the councils of nations. Out
of the four or five millions of negroes
in the United States we do not believe
there are ten thousand who deserve to
be rewarded with the sacred privilege
of voting for legislators or for rulers.
When they have learned to read and
write, and by industry have acquired
property on which they pay taxes, by
all means let them vote ; but not other
wise. The negrophilists may senti
mentalize, as much as they please about
the negro, and call him “a man and a
brother,” we deny that the African
race is equal to the English race; and
Mr. Philosopher Huxley, to the con
trary notwithstanding, we most dis
tinctly assert the inferiority of the
Ethiopian black man to the European
white man. There is a radical differ
ence in the organism of the two races
extending from head to heel. Mr,
Huxley says the heel ol the negro does
O/O L_j.:..o. vre say u does.
The conformation of the African’s loot
is peculiar. lie has no instep. And,
to quote bis own popular burlesque—
When he walk de woods around,
De hollow ob his foot make a holeinde
ground.
Mr. Huxley denies that the skill! of
the negro essentially differs from that
of the white man. We insist that it
differs very widely loth in form and
in structure. In recommending his
“colored brother” to the fastidious
embrace of white men, he says the
negro does not smell half as bad as
has been represented ; and that the pe
culiar “odoi of nationality,” so offen
sive to polite noses, is not caused by
the color of the skin, but by the filthi
ness of the skin. We admit theie is
much truth in this. The body servants
of the South, whose masters and
mistresses compel them to bathe every
day, have very little of the rank odor
wmch makes the presence of an un
washed negro on a hot day as unbear
able as the odor of a skunk. And yet
there' is a peculiar smell about the
African,in his best condition, which is
beyond the power of soap and water
to eradicate. The negroes themselves
recognize their own fragrance, and
glory in it, as in the following popular
lines, sung on the plantations in mid
night “revival meetings” to the pious
and plaintive tune of the “Old llun>
dredth :
De Lord l o lub de nigger well,
He know de nigger by de smell.
Asa general rule they are to lazy to
I wash themselves, which, of course,
greatly aggravates their inherent odors.
As the Dutch girl said to her mistress,
when scolded for her dirty feet, “You
should shine!! zern in ze summer time;”
so we say to Mr. Huxley, and his
brother and sister negrophilists. Go
among a crowd of unwashed negroes,
when the thermometor touches one
hundred and twenty degrees—and
“smeil ’em in the summer lime.” The
strongest advocate of miscegenation
would be overcome by a “knock down
argument”—a blow on the nose. A.nd
these are the “fellow-citizens” upon
whom Radicalism, under the lead of
such demagogues as Thad. Stevens—
who by the way is a practical amalga
mationist—has conferred the privilege
of voting on affairs of State, and of
deciding, perhaps, by the brute force
of numbers, on the men, and the
prir.cples that are to govern the Repub
lic. We have no ill-will against the
negro. On the contrary, we like him
much —but we like him in his place,
and, with rare exceptions, his place in
America is subordinate to the white
man. He is a good servant, but a bad
master, and worst of all a - ? a master to ,
himself. We saw a black man the !
other day veiy much out ol place. A
•■big buck nigger,” black as the ace of
spades, was seated in a lirsl-class rail
; way carriage making love to a very
• pretty white woman whom he was
escorting to the Crystal Palace. But
it was the woman that disgusted us more
than her wooly headed suitor. No
doubt, after being seated by a career of
conquests, the lady in the case took a
fancy to “carry the war into Africa.”
If white and black choose to make love
to each other in the dark, that is their
i business; but to exhibit their unnatural
amours in open daylight is “positively
shocking.” The sudden emancipation
of the negroes in America was a peril ous
experiment— most perilous to the ne
groes themselves. To raise them at
once to political equality with the:
whites involves greater danger still.-
The result will be, sooner or later, a
war between the races, when the black
man, like the red man, must finally
disappear.
