Fellow .CwnutNe; To forget past dia'crenecs, to unite iu averting present erneiKeni'ies, with a vieY of swuring futnre advantages, is the duty of all people, the »nm of all wise steresmnn ehip. When the Jute vsnr ended, bo people never eo much needed the exer fi?e of three virtues ue the Southern people. Difficulties surrounded u«, trial, enveloped ue, doubts arose on every hand ; yet, our patience was such ee uo people, in any previous history of die world, ever exhibited. Wo were inipoyerisheoi to a very large degree; our tnaiiim were exhausted ; our pride was humiliated ; our cause was gODc ; our properly was g rne ; and even hope tfisolf was almost gon*. We, had, then, to gather up ffur wasted energies, to. cupcrate our exhausted .'.length, and esUibiis|i govermnen l again l h»« re quired of us he most .trihing forbear ance and conciliation, with all the wisdom and firmness front the people which they eould ever be expected to ebisal ametAt vrj* IN > tlt . There was one circumstance which occurred, indeed siiniuhaneyusly with tlie misfortune of bur sum nder, which Was well etilcufaled to inspire us with hope —if anything could ir spire hope —and that was the marmot and the terms of trie surrender. After four yets of war, the struggle wassett'ed in tMfieoFdanoe with the stipnlatio s agieed spoti between ihe Generals cotmiiandh'g the arraiea. These terms we e noble were magnanimous •they w ere tiian.y ; and permit me to scv here tonight, and I f»y it with pieaaure. could the terms granted by Get). Grant to Gen Lee, at Appomat tox £o»rt Housu, and by Gun Slicr mau to Gen. Johnston tn North Caro lina, hrfe beeti fairly complied with, there would have f'eeu a very differ ent state of things. Tneae people wcr» to Jay down theirarms and Ui take them up against the United States Government again; to obey the hs«fc, and fb live in j>e:ice and quiet, which wat so ranch xleeired by ihe country jadter the grvious warfare thiougb which it had just passed. Jf ’.bene terras had beer, cotnplb and witli,Tt miglit have restored the Union intact, it would have Ifelt thr» people in the sane condition as they went into the war, with simply, their Josses the hss. But • beta was a certain clasa whom these terms did riot suit. Congress, the Fn« dent and the Judiciaiy would not en dorse them as the tevirls which ehou’d he exacted 4d “rebellious Slates ” Onr people thought diey wwo restored to the Unjon and to thoil rights; but 'hey were m etak n. Still, tbere w ere the terms given by Gen. Grant - o Gen Lee and by Gen Sherman to General Johnston; and it must ever remain an iyontir to the commander-* of la>th ano mies, that they were bo quickly and !>o kindly adjusted. But, unfortunate y, thoy were not approved ; unfortunate ly the honor which was displayed in the field did not exist witn the politi cians in the Cabinet; and they Look upon themselves the revision of thsse term*. And, fir-t, they exacted terms which had never bien exacted before, terms which were contrary to nil pre cedent, Neverthelcs, these terras were plausible enough, and wull calcnlated to commend themselves to the South ern people. These were the terms ex acted by the Executive, Andrew John son, who bad uorae into the Brosiden* cy upon the death of Lincoln, lie was not satisfied w;tth the stipulations agreed upon between Get). Grant and Gen Lee, aud between GeD. Sherman and Gen. Johnston. 1 would remark here that the tsrins to Gen. Lee Vere limited to .Lee’enrmy; but tboee to Gen. Joboston applied to the whole country oust ol the Chattahoochee, and “onn attei ward to all east of the Mia- HSWH at Mmal luKU Andy Johnaon, succeeding Mr. Lin coln, was, as L have already said, not au iaiisd with ibase ternta, and, there fore, r quired otb-rs What wore ? He rcqu.red that the various .State conventions must assemble and frame tew eons iiutions; and at the s.uit time he advised the einancipatiuU ot our sluv s The first condition was the calling «f the conventions and the framing of new constitutions. W ell, ihe South very r nudity yielded to that. And hero I waqt thp colored people particularly to unders and what lam about to say. They have \ieeu in and that they owe their Iroed tn to Lrn co n’s Emaneipntion T’ro.jamution. Jt (a not true. Even Mr Lincolu himself did not ol tin this. Tliat was timp y a war measure, »nd of eff.-et only du ling the war. li the South had ac cepted the t«thns of that proelaumtion, she could have kept you all in slavery to this day Blit they were nut accept, ed ; ami at.tbe close of the war, wo laid down our arms under the terms agreed upon l-y the Generals of the Armies Then came Andy Johnson’s measures. He suid that he ,ih sired that you should be eimonTpated. Weil to this proposition the Southern people very readily yielded; and there were two eonditiorfi which reconciled them to it First: whether tbe measure was right inr wrong, whether it was best l*°r whVte and ei.lorwd or not it wai looked upofi as a natural conclu sion of the war, and as a mea.TUTS of economy. The (ither, and rn my judg rucitt, the strotigebt reason tint recoo cifed us to it Was the way in which you i colored 'people behaved yourselves du-1 ring the war. Yes, the eobnrod people belmved honorably, nobly, bravely and tnfiy. Aownrd us during that struggle; for while our fathers, rone, and broth ers, were absent upon the ixittle-lreld, they guarded our homes, made our bread, and protected our interests.— This conduct l>eg<>4 a feeling of kind ness f*r the colored people w hich roc •neil >d us to thsir em unci pvt With these and some other eondVtions we we oomplied We called oor Htate (Vmventions and framod now f(insti tutions, «n<l in this we declared that slavery should never exist again. New my colored friends, mark the point —- Thut is what secured you your li'«o --dom. In 1865, this emancipation measure was made a part of the (lon sfiftition in the manner and for the reason which I have given you. This emanci'-'stioD wag » new meas ure with u*. Wo had never before en countered it. We had here four mil* lins of colored people as estimated.— Now to all these freed om wa* to be given as once. Why, even the Nor thern people proposed only a gradual cmauoipatinn, but bare, all at once, suddenly, we gave you your freedom.— WJiatwastobe the remilt? No man oou'd tell. We eould not telT bow you would behave yourselves, bow y’ou would guided; whether unprincipled men would tsie charge of you, und mished you.— But these difficulties wore met at tbs threshold. To your credit, colored pegs pie, be it said, you behaved nobly; you remained quirt; you remained true to the country; you went to work quiet ly and peacoabl;; you exhibited a do cile temperaaieut, and a pleating, grat ifying willingness* to war. Ju this you relieved the question of half of its trou bles. The next thing required of us by Ml. Johnson, was the repudia'ion of the Confederate debt. This we abtl com plied with. In addition to these meas ures, be also olaim*d the right tn par don our people. Niw I, claim that tire tonus agreed upon at Appomattox Court H'-u*e settled that question, arid roleivi ed all the people from the necessity of any oardfin, bat Sir. Johnson dawned thn pardoning power—pardoing some ot the rebels, as we were ealled, and leav ing outhers ou', Well, we comolird with this also. We were required to take an noth to support the (3 institution and the emancipation of the slaves. — The people took this oath reftdi’y and in good faith, and they have kept it ia good faith. Here, then wo hal two pets of term*: Ist, the Anuy temi“, and 2-1 the leitn* of the executive Dcpsrtrocnt*. wiih both of which our psopie complied; atnl what was the result? Thus far we had bccoire involved in no Bilious and fli -ul ties—nothing had leea rtqu red of us which was inconsistent with the rights and honor ts an overpowered peopl«- We bad tnsnagtd this question wisely the people aid statenaien bad proved themselves equal to the nuiergeucy.— Weil, what was the result? Under the existiug rttte of things we began to pros per. Laud increased iu value, proper ty of all kinds isc tssed in value, while the colored people were getiti g the highest wage, paid to any ctsse of lab-rers on earih. Evt-vythiug sceoicd to grow brighter—the field* to bloom mine beautifully sod all begun to pros peraridto hope. How prospcious we were in I860! When the close or the year carnc and contract* had to be made tor the ensuing year, hand, in South- western Georgia were paid as high as $l5O per year, besides being found.— 1 repeat it, such prices were unheard of before for labor. Why, not a einglo laborer iu the North get aa much; and it was almost double wbat they got in their factories. Everybody locked for ward to the future with faith and hope. Hut suddenly, another class came for ward with new requirements. The po liiicaos, the ltadicals, not satisfied with the terms given us by Grant and Sher man, aud Dy Johnson, must have terms also. They said that IVesident Jubuson had no right to offer terms. Well, at ■once tbe proaperity of the S«.utb com menced tumbling, and the couutry was ruined. The (Jongrera denied us every privilege guaranteed by tbe Uui *n; it imposed taxation and every burden up* on us poselble, yet refused us retrasen. Sutton. Tt imposed a tas, first of three cents per lb on our cotton and then of two and a half cents —a tax which struck at white and black atikff. We soon be came a ruiti«d aud an impoverished peop'c, but we stood these Leary tex es, and readily couip!i and with their terms; and not only did wc tolerate all this; but wc sto'd, abo, tbe robberies of th» tlieives who went about the ditto try stealing all the C ofederate proper, erty they oculd lay their bauds upon.-* Yes, we bore it a I —tbe Army, the Ex(cutlvs,and tbe Congress,,nal terO's) and, wTsc tbaD all, we bore the t+glies too. Tbe«e were liho the locusts of Egypt, almost as numerous and iufi iite ly meaner. Well, Cougrcss said it must settle the question of reconstrnc- ( tiou. It gave us the Constitution Amendment No. 1-1, and said we must adopt that. That Amendment contain ed four ideas; ore of them was glv’ r g the right of oiiix'nsbip to all the people. Now this was altogether unßteei-sary, fpr it is ever to ba remembered, and it cannot, dare not be disputed, that we had already secured vou colored Eeople your freedom, in 1805, ss 1 have store »aid to you. Yes, tbe B'.ate of Goorgia had granted you your freedom long b.fore Ocugress bad required it of us; aad y*t you will hear people goio g about the country saying Congress gate the coUred people their freedom; ft did no such thing We gave it to you first. Well that requirement was objectionable, because we had already done this. I Th# second requirement," then, MAS 1 fbst all who were exclded Jmki the priv ilege of the bAllot'tHvjfshnuM be exclu ded from representation Weerulffnot secede to this, ihhuglr by some slight Amendment to this, though by aoifre slight Amendment to tbd ©onetifbtioft we might hate met even that ptoinfc The third requirement was that “reb el debt,” as-they enllcd ir, was Hi be repudiated sod fhs United Bft'es tibbt 'to be paid; Why put this in the I Amendment? We had already repndi j sted out debt, and by going back ihta j the Union, we were helping to pay it! ; debt, l»y paying the taxas impoeed tip ‘ on, us and the mos-c ennrmftus taX» es to the roguea j “Now c lorcd people, if you will ]i4<jt> , to me, you will find that I qua your best friend—why, 1 am vtorth a thousapjj such men to you as Bullock, Blodgett, ! and Bryatif; for they wilt drfeelvp yo,u-,- | I never will Very weTl, Tho fourt,lj : and last requireuient.of ffie'Constitution 'al Amendment aDd fliat’ iij why' it wa* 1 ohj otjd and the only reason why the , South made a point bgait)st'n--was tlye | exclusion of almost every entflli geut man in the South even from th* humblest tffite, 'Why' ntldfrr that I Aaieudment, you eould not baVe made that whole-souled, pure ahd iluble patri or, Uhailos J.

Now, remember, colored mow, how pros perous y-u were tu 1866, hew bigh yi*u Were paid for your ialioT. Well, in March, 1867, this wicked, nefarious measure, tmown as the Ucooneiruction 1 Bill wa# adopted by GuugreM. From that <u«merit the country commenced going down. Up to that lime, use col ored people wt m docile, iudusUlDU.*; tiue to Uitir “o and uiaatvr*/* and kind g iod feoiiugt raigued ou ail sides. VV e hegau tu uuagiaiulaLe ourscive# that emancipation Wan the best thing for us. But from this moment -confidence was .truck down, prosperity oeaoud, Nor tlx - urn capital stopped coming hclo y and vary boon attar we were luu-uuuoed tu (bat tneauest, most couiumptaoio of ail earthly thugs, called “carptl bagger* > H'hai do.* this measure pro pus* to do? It excludes tbe truest men ot the BoulL truui holding rllicc, or vo'iug, while iv cloihes, bay fuur millions ul ouiored peo ple, with tho right to vote. VV hat a held was opeuid here for these luonstros iiits, the Freni men’s Bureau aud Wt« carpet-baggers ? These people coaulu ded (hat tiny oould got something ul the ISjuth—the wisest of ihe white yoo ple are excluded, said they, lrotu hold ing office, and the colored people have the right to Vote, bo they became office seeker# and tdliee-bo-duls. Those ca - pot baggers, humuitrt, and spuou-suial ers had noth ng to do with Giant or fchcrmuu ; they never were ou tho bat tle-field; aud never did auy good any where. Bat they saw this lino opening at tho South, aid down they cauic.— And this is one of the first objectu ns to this JTeeoustruotiuu measure, .hat it put such trash upon us. Well, they came here, and then what did they do / They got you colored peo ple into their Loyal Leagues, took you into dark placiH, where (be people who had been your friends, vtkoui you bad been raised with, couldn’t talk lo you ; and where these vile earpetr-baggers taught you a feeling of hatred against tbe {Southern people. Unfortunately, you went >u, many of you, and tiuw sue iho result, liuder their fltwiyy, how property has fulUu; how wages have fallen ; bow ooi.tiJeuee isdestioyed ; how business is ruined I lu a word, the amount of the pecuniary injury sustain ed by the Snuiboru ‘pippin wuuld fiaj’ the debt of every man, WoitU), and child in the JStuificrn 8 ales.
