Colored people don’t seem to scare
much about Cleveland’s election: only
one bad enough in Miss, to cut his
throe* to prevent his being restituted
to slavery.
An epidemic of spitefnlness and ha
tred towards the South seems to per
vade the divine and ministerial cjrc'os
in the North. A bill was recently in
troduced in the Vermont legislature to
have the State represented in the
World’s Exposition, when a reverend
one of its members opposed it with a
hitter tirade against the South. They
all became so disgusted at him, that
the bill was passed, his voice only dis
senting,
The Deinoctacs and endipendent
Itepnblleans are endeavoring to induce
; Prcsedent elect Cleveland and Hen
dricks to visit Chicago between now
and the inaugniation. A grand ban
quet and parde will be given in honor
of their visit.
One very interesting topic in the
political circles will be the formation
ol President-elect Cleveland’s cabinet.

THE CONFEDKMTE BILL.
To the holders of the Confederate
Notes,
Representing nothing on God’s earth
now,
And nothing in the waters below
»L
As the pledge of a nation that’s dead
and gone.
Keep it, dear friends, and show it;
Show to those who will lend an ear
To the tale that the paper can tell,
Of liberty, horn of the patriot’s dream,
Of a storm cradled nation that fell.
Too poor to poscss the priceless ear,
And to much a stranger to borrow.
We issued to-day our promise to pay,
And hoped to redeem on the morrow.
The days rolled by and weeks became
years,
But our coffers were empty still.
Coin was so rare that the treasuryM
quake*
If a do!la.! should drop in the till.
But the 'faith that was in us was
strong indeed;
And our poverty will be discerned,
And these little checks represented
the pay,
Our suffering veterans earned.
We knew it had hardly a value in gold
Yet as gold the soldiers received it.
It gazed in our eyes with a promise to
i» a y.
And each patriot soldier believed it.
But our boys thought little of price
or pay,
Or of hills thnt were over due,
We knew that if it bought us bread
to-day.
’Twas the beet our country could do.
Keep it, it tells of our history o’er,
From the birth of the dream to the last,
Modest, and horn ol the angel Hope,
Like our hope of success it passed.

lUnine’* Augusta Speech.
The following is an extiact fVom
Blaine’s speach delivered in Augurta
It shos-s fu 1 1 y the situation in which
that element of the Rehnhlican party
regard public affairs. Wc might
sympathise with them, but we have
not forgotton the past. They may
cry Union but it will do no good now.
We are in and we are going to stay.
If any body wants to leave, let Blaue
and his followers mako the move, we
will try and let them off as quiet as
possible and with plcasme, In the
name of that sacred Union they de
feated the South but their work is
finished ann to their own hurt. The
South is solid and may she always be
Let the colored race have their suf
frage.
“The cities of Now York and Brook
lyn threw their great strength ami in
fluence with the solid South and were
the decisive element which gave to
that section control of the National
Goverment. Speaking now not at all
as a defeated candidate hut its a loyal
and devoted American, I think the
TRANSFER OF THE POLITICAL POWER OF
the Goverment to the South is a
great National misfortune.
“It is a misfortune because it intro
duces an element which can’t insure
harmony and prosperity to the people
because it introduces into the Republic
the rule of the minority. The first iu
stinot of an f American is equality.

es, equality which says to ever citizen:
•Your vote is just as good, just as po
tential as tho vote of any other citizen’
That cannot be said today in the Unit
ed States. The course of affairs in
(he South has crushed out the political
power ot more than six millions of
Ameican citizens and has transferred
it by voilence to others. Forty-two
Presidential electors assigned to
the Sonth onacount of the colore 1 pop
ulation , and yet mere than 1,100.000
legal votes have been unable to choose
a single elector* Even in those Stale

REBELLION ff.deß
had by the census of 1880, seven and
a half millions of white population

snport the Republican party, hut by p
system of cruel intimidation and by
violence and murder whenever violence
and murder arc thought necessary.

political powor.
So completely have the colored men
in the South been already deprived by
the Demociatic party of their constitu
tional and legal rights as citizens ot
the United States, that they regard
the advent of that party to Nationa]
power as a signal of their ro-enslave
menfc and are affrighted because they
think all the legal protection for thfem
is gone. A few persons in the North
realize how completely the chiefs of re
bellion wield the political powor which
has triumphed in the late election.
It is a portentous fact that the Demo
cratic Senators who come from the
States of the late confederacy, all, and
I, mean all, without a single exception
personally participated in the rebellion
against the National Government,
It is still a significant fact that in
these States noman who was loyal to
the Union, no matter how strong a
Democrat he may be tc-day,*has the
slightest chai.cc of political promotion.
One great avenue to honor in that sec
tion is a record of zealous service in
the war against the government. Ii is
certainly an astonding fact that in
the section in which f.iiendship for the
Union in the day of its trial and ago
ny is still, -til l that political disquali
fication vhonld be called now to rule
over the Union-
All this takes place during the life

OUR WASHING l LETTER.
[From the correspondent of tip Times]
Washington, Nov. 21, 1884.
The„speech of M.t. Blaine at Augus
ta is still the absorbing topic of con
versation, and variously commented
upon by both friends and iocs. All
’ook upon it as an outlining of a policy
by and through which he proposes to
fire the Northern heart, keep up the
agitation of solid South and bloody
shirt ideas, and so fix matters that
four years hence he will again be plac
ed in nomination by the Republican
party, which lie and his fiieuds say
will then be invincible, If it pleases
Mr. Blaine to make infiamitory speech
es, and to keep the business interests
of the country in a feverish state of
unrest and uneasiness, no one will in
terfere, and certainly not the victors
in the late contest, for by such speech
es he is weakening his own cause and
adding thousands to the cause of peace
conciliation and good will. The doc
trine of eternal hate was long since bn
tied by the soldieiS of the Nortli and
South fraternizing on every occasion
where opportunity offered, an attempt
to resmrect it will only bring distinc
tion on the head of the would-be res
urrectionist.
The twin relic of eternal hate, pro
tection has also jnvt tecieved a set
back from which it will not recover in
this generation, if ever again. If there
vas one question that was clearly set
tled and that al| beyond peidventure
it was that the American jeop'c ajt
ill lavoo (.! ti:r i ..•’ vi’voiii'. •>?<! ..
lyr ie<hieing tun <>i the u .-
ermert to the lowest minimum amout
nece sary to support the Govermeut in
com radistinetion to that policy of pro
tection advocated by Mr, Blaine and
his followers, which is intended to j
make the rich Holier and the poor I
poorer, while the burdens of the latter
are piled up to keep a surplus in the
Treasury which should le utilized to
lighten the burdens of all.
The contrast between Mr. Blanc’s
inflammatory speech and the kindly
words of Governor Cleaveland to an
Associated Press reporter yesterday it
is remarked by every one, is anything
but credible to the former. Governoi
Cleveland puts a quietus on all the ab
surd statement that under his admin
titration as President any action in
imical to the colored race will be tol
erated- For fear you may overlook
his words we insert them licie: “Ho
tar as the adminstftion is related to
the subject the whole country may be
sure that the lawful power and jur
'isdktion oßtic excutive will he so ex
ercised that the rghts of all citizens—
white or blacky-under tho constitu
tion and the lands* will be preserved
and ] nrtvcledv/srid all the advantages
to which they are entitledby leason of
their citizenship will be secured to
them. There need he no fear that
either the democratic pa.ity or its
newly elected administrative officer
proposes to oppress or enslave any
pu t of our population nor distroy the
business interests ot our country bVe
hope on the other hand to do some
thing to beuht the people.”
S. B.
Some of the Republicans have been
venting their rage on President Ar
thur for appointing a general thanks
giving da}. They seem to be impress
ed with the conviction thar its time for
mourning.
