fools in the world would not
make the different .
negro in nix
character or change his l-"l*
lion ,* Dolit-ically orsoclallv in Ihe
south. All . the , ducalion , .. that , .
'
may be heaped upon him would
leave him a negro sfill in the
eyes Of e .t those ...i who | know ,,, him
bggk
Congreiemdn Livingston ha«
recove:ed sufficiently to give
out a very interesting inter¬
view relative to the possible
future complexion of southern
politics. Flo thinks the bank¬
ers, manufacturer and capital¬
ists will go to the republican
ranks when the negro question
is settled. The Congressman
usually looks well ahead.
The express car on a Central
train was robbed near Macon
last Thursday night about 12
o’clock. .The messenger wa«
bound and gagged and then the
two highwaymen proceeded to
take what they could find. Two
hundred dollars was secured by
the robbers ?nd they left the
ti’iiiti near Gordou. The mes¬
senger was still bound securely
when found by oue of the crew.
Now the cheei ful tidings come
to us from Porto Rica that un¬
der nncle Sam’s regime the na
tave girls of the Island are be
lug sold by tbeir
fathers to prevent their starva¬
tion. Nothing is said of the
boys of the island so we judge
that they are not hungry
else there is no market, for tnern.
Uncle Sam should look after
Its adopted daughters.
How long roust le sout lern
people submit to slanderous m
suits such as Dr. Parkin, rs. of
the Ogden party, is uov\ r iui ing
at us? Phis constant, evetiast*
ing 'dogging’ at the aeuthein
white people, and fondling the
negro, by those who have more
money than brain, is becoming
tiresome, to say the least." Dr.
Parkkurst may be a philanthn
pist, but he needs some one
tO teach him discreetness and
at iu. the „„nut same time point out, to
him that the SOUth LS not a CUkS
