turn. The Bible, experience and G* d
in universal nature,' are all pronounced
against the amalgamation of the races.
I have never k own a Scotch-Irishman,
Dutchman or Englishman, not even a
cold blooded Yankee to improve thr-ir
i O<t- rity bv mixing with negroes and
Indians. Nor have I ever known the
n^gro or Indian much improve! by mix
ing with them. The real facts are the
negro has no more affinities for the
white and yellow races, than they have
for him. W
Dr. Talmage s«ys: “There was a
»ime w h» n I entertained race prejudices,
but thinks to Go! that prejudice is gone
and i! I set in a church on one side a
black roan and on the other side an In-
Han and before me a Chinaman and be
hind me a Tu-k, I would be as happy as
l »m now standing in the presence of
this brilliant audience. The sooner we
re t' is corpse of race prejudice buried
the healthier wi'l be (notour Northern)
but Arneiican atmosphere. 7 ' This is
the most pronounced social equality and
amalgamation IJiave ever heard from
my mail. I have denied that the North
ern churches held any such views, and
hat it was only a ghost of Southern
imagination. Dr. Talmage is a repre
i sentative mm, and knows the mind and
feelings of the North.
Dr. Talmage ought to be a good
Presbyterian and let God’s divine de
crees alone. Did God not ordain the
races? The Doctor ought to be trie-*
for heresy and put out of the church
for trying to violate the divine decrees
by making mulattoes out of people
which God has made white and black.
I would suggest to the good Doctor and
his brilliant congregation, to make the
experiment of mixirg the races on a
-mailer scale, and not have so large a
f«nera\ all at once. Let one of the Doc
tor's daughters marry a negro, and an-
o ht r a Chinamen, and another a Hotten
tot, and then let his Eiders follow his
example, and take time and see if, on a
sin ill scale, they can produce a race 95
per cent, above anything the world has
ever se- n.

Jester, the horse swapper, is closing
up his trading season. He is highly grat
ified with his swaps of the past six
weeks, being sttonger of body and
heavier of purse. He has a double mo
tive in horse trading. First, he is a
good trader and makes money ; second,
it affords him diversion and relaxation
from the confining duties of bis restau

Jester is unique among horse swap

bis horses’ ailments. S**me time ago
he bought a mule that he thought 'per
fectly sound, but he soon found other

had to be helped to her feet, which is
no great recommendation. Soon a fel

just take one thing, “the blood.” A'l

If all the races are one when put into

one when he takes them out? If the

caldron, wi h all their diflere' t colors
and odors,would malic them all Scotch-
Irish, it might be well to put them in,
but s-o far as the experiment lias been

exact proportion as you put in white,
black, or yellow, it comes out white,
black or yellow in the very same pro

why he wanted to get rid of bin mule.
Tbe trader looked at the mule and as
he saw no serious objection replied:
“$20 boot.! 7
“Remember,” replied Jester ‘‘you’ll
have to help her up when she gets
down.’’
“Twenty dollars will help her up”
quickly, responded the other, and the
trade was ch sed.
Another trader soon came up when
the mule of difficult rising, changed
tion. As her owner was riding her
home that night she fell down in the tan
yard branch, and after much whipping
and twisting, being unable to get her to
her feet, the disgusted trader came back
into the city and borrowed one of Jes

NOTICE
weakened and none are benefitted. All
All the different families of the same
race may be benefitted by mixing, like
the Scotch and the Irish, but never by
mixing the races. If God had intended
the amalgamation of all the races, why
did He, by creation, or miraculous in
terposition separate the races, and ap
point them bounds, and give to each the
place of his habitation. The negro is
not a human invention, nor is the whi e
or yellow man, but a divine appoint
ment. The three colors are primordial,
and ate not radically changed by food,
or climate. The negro was black four
thousand years ago, as he is now. God
says hejeannot cliange'his skin any more
than the leopard can change his spots,
and yet the Doctor would change God’s
decree. •
Europe and the North brought the
negro from- his God-given home, and
j sold 1 im to the South, then becoming
dissatisfied with what they had done,
destroyed a half million of Southern
white people to set the four million of
negroes free. In their modes of war
fare they showed that they were capa
ble of the deepest depravity, and really
acted worse than common Savages. Now
they are dissatisfied with the freedom
ot the negro, and their most popular
and sensational preacher sounded the
burie note on the 3d of March in Brook-
lyi° N. Y., to rig up a big caldron into
which be proposes to cast both negroes
and whites, and stew them both down
to a common mulatto, and destroy both
the white and black races, and substi
tute them with a race of mulattoes, a
type of humanity God never made.
There is not a mulatto or mule in the

“Ob, they seemed to take it pretty

Bum Childers, one of the number,

In the course ot conversation some one
asked him if he liked the idea of going
