steals a inarch on heaven.
It is a safer thing ermy tini'e to fol
low a man’s ad vice than his example.
When we are more anxius tew
ploazo than tew bo pleased, then we
are in love in good arnest.
Hunting after health iz like I unt
ing after fleas—the more you hunt
them, the more they flea.
If virtu did not so often manage to
make herself repulsive, vice would not
be half so attractive.
Love is like the tneazles ; we kant
have it but wunst, an 1 the later in life
we have it the tougher it goes with
us.
es men are honest they will tell yn
that their sucksess in life iz more ova
wonder tow them than it is to yu.
The man who kant find Puny virtu
in the human heart, has probably
given a faithful sinopsis ov his own.
It don t show good judgment to be
surprised at ennything iu this world,
for there iz nothing more cortuin than
uncertainty.
I havo notissed one thing—that the
most virtowous and dis ,reet folks we
have amongst üb, are those who havo
either no pashuns ut all, or very tame

about outrages at the .South to influ
ence party- prejudices at the North. It
is mostly false; but supposing it true,
what then ?
What does it prove ? Only this, that
if you will violato the law of freu
government, you must bike the conse
quences If you will trample on men’s
pride and sentiment —yes, on tho cher
ished prejudices, to say nothing of
their rights —yo may look tor “out
rages.” Why, gentlemen, 1 have road
ol these outrages before now; and
where do you think they occur? Why
Ireland has been famous for outrages
for centuries. Poland has been a land
of outrages. Hungary was for many
years a vory nest and hot bed of out
rages, and indeed she became so out
rageous that Austria had to finally
find a cure And she found one, nty
friends, a perfect cure; not an out
rage now to be heard of. Ami what
was it? Why, site restored to Hunga
ry her constitutional rights; that is
all. And as soon as we restore to the
South hor rights under tho Constitu
tion we shall hear no m. oof the out
rages. 1 Wonder theft' are not more.
1 am sure we should not be as quiet
if the cases were reversed. I know
we were not at all quiet one hundred
fears ago When it was tried here. I
fear if you should put the Asiatics to
rule over us, as we have put the Afri
can to rule over them, there would he
some trifling outrages going on. But
there is very little need of political vi
olence done there, though certainly
there are some “outrages. ’ S know
6f one myself, a plain; manifest, fla
grant, intolerable outrage upon tree
government and constitutional law,
and that is “reconstruction” itself.
