: vo d us firmly that no step forward
"•' 'llld he attempted beyond that point,
' v j particularly ' scouted the idea of
Z-Jequality ever being “tried on.”
‘V ]as » for the fallacy of human judg-
7 fln ts- especially, such miserable judg
-1 ts ’ as mine ! The questions of
y aa) j t y have been swallowed clean out
f shdit by the thousand times more
Momentous one of Supremacy ! Within
H \vook, the poisonous seed of Radicalism,
\vhieli has been so long rotting beneath
lir fret, has burst forth, germinated,
i,-rovvn to a monstrous Upas, and sudden
\x mattered in our midst its legitimate
fruits of Bloodshed and Death.
Notwithstanding the long established
fy.jjgf 0 f all simple-minded people, backed
, ) } y |}, e assertions of the profoundest
philosophers, that the Almighty has
created “no two things equal,” our
modern Optimists of the enlightened
Nineteenth Century insist that all races of
men are equal , and they are now trying
to prove their proposition by force.
We of the South cannot avoid the con
test, and I believe we are ready for it,
,ur chief anxiety being that the issue
should come as quickly as possible, and
the question be settled forever.
So far, the only thing proven, is the
immense superiority of the Negro over
the cowardly race of Puritan Scalawags.
In every encounter, up to this time, the
dusky African hits made, at least, some
show of standing up for his race, while
his white-livered Radical Confederate has
uniformly dodged into his bomb-proof den
at the first show of danger.
The Blacks, conscious of their superi
ority over this class, naturally hope to
establish their control over all white
lolks; but, I am persuaded, if these few
pale-faced mischief-makers were put out
of the way, the Negroes would have sense
enough to “confess judgment,” and sub
side into their proper position. So mote
it be.
All the bloody events in this city and
vicinity, the past week, are believed to
be the well-calculated results of Radical
plots to incite riots, at whatever cost, as an
excuse for re-establishing Martial Law,
and thus pin vent a valid election in the
State. It remains for the people of the
North and West to say whether this out
rage shall be perpetrated, or not; for ice
are, politically, as powerless as ever, ex
cept to the extent of protesting against
tiic wrong. If they permit and counte
nance our continued oppression, they will
learn, when too late, that they have only
Fen strengthening the hands of their
own destroyers.
Oh 1 for a hogshead of sugar, a barrel
of molasses, or anything sweet that I
could dive into, and drive away the
political sourness that pervades my soul.
\\ ill, this week will close the story, one
way or another, and then we’ll turn over
anew leaf, and begin a fresh, and, I hope,
a b 'ighter chapter.
As some compensation for my megrims,
I commend to you the accompanying
sprightly waif from the portfolio of the
late Captain Morehead.
Yours, Ac.,
Southern Radical.
