H. 1111,1.. NUMBER XI. In all a ,y es governments have been over turned byLnen who made great professions of patriotis.nl and good intentions. The serpent induct’d Eve to eat the forbidden fruit by flattering her, and declaring liis counsel would do her good. He greatly dc sired, he protested, to improve her condi tion. From that day f O this traitors have been unable to find any .better method of accomplishing their purposes. Ignorance is more easily duped than intelligence, and, therefore, knaves have always been advo cates of conferring power oil fools ; and so fools have generally thought knavtS were their best friends. For this very reason commonwealths —free countries —have pro duced more demagogues, and have become more fearfully the prey of anarchy than any other forms of government. The people generally mean well. They think they follow friends when they follow those who llatter them, and they follow with “ cheers and a tiger.” They go, like the fatted ox with pretty ribbons streaming from his horns, frisking to their own .slaughter ! Were not they glorious Southern leaders whb established the right to can’v slaves to Kansas '■ What, if God had decreeCl slavery coilld not prosper there, and our fathers had agreed it should not go V Who eareu for God and our fathers if their decrees and compacts stood in the way of “ our riyhU / Oh how good theories and fair promises have wrecked hopes, destroyed prosperity, and subverted governments! Every com mand in the decalogue has been violated in the name of God, and every precept of the Saviour lias been trampled upon under pre tence of promoting religion. Never, at any period of human history, ii&ve bad men, or traitors, or devils, under taken to accomplish a wicked worth with greater professions of good will or with circumstances more favorable for exciting the confidence of the people in the sincerity of their professions, than those by which and under the influence of which these Radicals have undertaken to destroy the ■Constitution of the United States and the principles of free govei'2 im ® n *; in America. With sincere convictions oi and ne cessily, but in a suicidal way, the Southern Slates and people seemed to place them selves in an attitude of hostility to the Constitution. And these Northern trai tors, who provoked the South to her folly for the very purpose, have ever since been enabled to tickle and divert the iniuds of the Northern people with the flippant cry of “rebel” and “traitor,” and thus, not only unperceived, but in the midst of the wild cheers and mad aid of the giddy, fool ish masses, have given the Constitution a thousand stabs. Anil still the arch-lead urs give out the key-note rebel; and the Jlabel crowd catch up the refrain, and fools in office cry rebel; preachers of lies and haters from pulpits cry rebel; lunatics in school cry rebel; and, foulest of the foul, Southern renegades cry rebel; and the trai tors thank Coil for the (wild distemper of the people, and stab on / And the poor, outraged Constitution, under which our common fathers lived, and loved, and pros pered, and which would gather all, black and white, “ even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings,” bleeds and reels, anil no one will hear her cries or heed her tottering! Equally insane, but equally favorable to the purposes of the Radicals, is the hypo critical pretense of elevating the black race. All vyise or good men everywhere, and more especially those in the South, desire to ele vate the black race, but Radical traitors and their Southern tools alone desire to de grade the white race. By whatever other means the work may lie done, it is certain the black race cannot be secure in privi leges or rights, by taking away from the white race these same privileges and rights. Whether either race, ami which, shall dual ly gain the mastery, or whether both races can live and rule together as equals and in peace, tire questions which good men may discuss, and, about which, possibly, even true men may dilfer, but one thing is very certain, neither race separately, nor both races together, can rule or be ruled wisely or peacefully, or with safety to life, proper ty, or franchise, by v iolating and trampling upon the Constitution—the fundamental law for all. He who would, therefore, be a friend to either race must be a friend to the Constitution. He who violates this Consti tution is an enemy to both races. lie who observes the Constitution is a friend to both races. The very reverse of all this plain reason ing is every prim.ipic which can be adduced to support these military bills. These bills violate the Constitution. These bills de grade the white race. These bills trample on the rights of both races; and all these things these bills do under pretence of eleva tiny the black race! The work is absurd anil impossible. The means proposed can not accomplish the end professed. Both races must go together, or the greater must control the less, or the two must col lide. Ami when the two collide I,he less must perish or be driven away or be brought miller control, however the greater race may suffer by the collision and the strug gle. And the Radicals know this; and, there fore, the means I hey propose are not intended to accomplish the end they profess. The real end is to secure these ten States to keep the Radical party in power in the ap proaching Presidential election, and this t hey seek to do reckless of consequences to black or white, to the Constitution or Gov ernment. The traitors are seeking to re tain, by this fraud and force at the South, the power they are losing by the detection of their treason at the North. They annul the Constitution in the name of loyalty; they exterminate the black race in the name of philanthropy; they disfranchise white men in the name of equality; they pull down all the defenses for file and pro perty In the name of liberty; and in blas phemous hosannas to the union they are rushing all sections and all races into wild, chaotic anarchy; and all, all, that traitors may hold the seats of power they desecrate, and riot, in the wreck of the prosperity they destroy! And will the Southern peo pie, whom they have so long slandered and oppressed, take them up, as the Northern people, whom they have so long flattered and deceived, are casting them away. It was my purpose to discuss at length the questions of civil rights and political trusts, and l>v what means the first could be safely secured, and in and by whom the last could be wisely reposed and exercised; with the view of showing how illogical and contrary to human nature anil experience and safety is the dogma that political equal ity is a right of citizenship, or necessary to the enjoyment, of civil equality. But why labor and worry the printer anil weary the reader by proving that untrue which none but fanatics are unblushing enough to pre tend is true. Why labor to prove these .military bills will not work good to the negro, when they do not intend good to the negro—are not adapted as means to secure good to the negro; but arc intended simply to add ten States to party power ! The ne groes are enfranchised because it is believed they will vote for the Radical party, and the whites are disfranchised because it is believed they will not vote for the Radical party. If the belief were reversed the rule would be reversed. The object is not to punish disloyalty, and the proof is found in the fact that the most bitter original seces sionists are at once received into Radical favor by agreeing to support the Radical party, and the most unscrupulous is always received with the greatest marks of favor, because such are the most congenial and best suited for the work of destroying the Constitution under pretence of preserving the Union; and preserving the Radical par ty under pretence-of loving the dear people. It is proper, without fully elaborating the argument, to suggest a few elementary principles which all our people ought, iii these times, to keep constantly before them. In all society or government are rights to he enjoyed, burdens to be borne, and trusts to be discharged. Among the rights are the right of prop erty ; the right of locomotion ; the right to appropriate and dispose of the proceeds of our own labor; the right to worship ac cording to conscience; and the right to protection from society in the enjoyment of all these rights, and the right to have all the legal processes and remedies provided to make this protection effectual. These are called civil rights, and when we speak of civil equality we mean that these rights belong alike and equally to all citizens, to all classes, to all colors, to all sexes, to all ages anil to all grades of intellect, society and worth. These rights necessarily attach to and become conditions -of free citizen ship. The negro is entitled to all these rights. And being now deprived of the protection which, as a slave he received from his owner, all good men ought to re joice that lie can still be safe under the pror tection of the law; and, being unaccustom ed to assert his rights, a work which was performed by Ids master, all true men ought to be ready to aid him in that asser tion. And all bul Radicals and renegades are willing to aid him, but they seek tou se him under pretense of aiding lain. Among the burdens of society and gov ernment, I may mention, working the pub lic highways, providing public buildings, paying the public taxes, defending the pub lic safety, &c., &c. These burdens ought to l>e borne by all according to fitness and capacity, for these burdens constitute the consideration we pay for the protection we get. Women and children, lunatics and idiots do not work the highways or defend the .society with arms, because their posi tions or capacity forbid, but they are all citizens—or members of the society—and pay taxes. These are called burdens be cause'they are borne, not for ourselves only, but for others —for the public. Lastly, in every society or government, they are trusts to be discharged; offices are to be filled; laws are to be made, executed and administered, else there could be no rules or process for protection, and agents are to be selected for all tlies# purposes. The whole business of selecting agents to discharge duties, as well as the discharge of the duties themselves, comes under the head of trusts. They are called trusts lie cause they are powers exercised not for Squares. 1 Week. 2 Weeks. I 3 Weeks. 1 Month. 2 Month*. 3 Montiih. 4 Month*. 6 Month*. ts Month* Svi-tDcckli) (Constitutionalist one’s own good, but for the good of others — for the public. The authority to vote is, therefore, a trust reposed, and the exercise of the authority is the exercise of a trust —the trust of selecting agents to provide and execute the laws by which rights £re to be protected. All men are born to rights—which are personal—affecting each person only; but no man is born to a trust to a power which affects all other uiempers of society. You had as well say a man is born to an office as to say he is born to a vote for that office. So, again, all trusts imply capacity and integrity. No man has a right to be entrusted to discharge a duty affecting others who do not understand that duty, or who has not integrity to be trust ed witli its faithful exercise. How can the rights of the members of society be safe if the protection for those rights is to be provided orapplieil by ignor ant or vicious agents ? And how can ignorant or vicious agents be avoided if i norant and vicious persons are born to tile right to select them V Rights are personal—born with jjersons —belong to the person, and affect the per son ; but trusts are relative—and born with society—belong to society—and are for the good and under the control of society. How is any man liorn with a right to take my rights, or to select anothar to take my rights ? Suffrage, then, is not a right —it is not a privilege—it is a trust, and a most solemn and sacred trust. It is the trust of preserv ing society,of securing rights,of protecting persons. Would you select an ignorant, or vicious, or untrustworthy man as your trustee, or the trustee for your wife or your child in Hie smaUest concerns of life ? How, then, would you make a trustee of an ignorant or vicious man to discharge these great duties, on the wise and faithful discharge of which all rights, and all protection, and all things depend ? The burden« of society are light or heavy according as the trusts of society are wisely or unwisely, faithfully or unfaith fully discharged. The heavy taxes under which America groans spring alone from the unfaithful and wicked execution of the trusts of our people in selecting agents, and of the agents in discharging their duties. Universal, indiscriminate, ignorant, vi ious white suffrage has buried a million of victims slain by eacli other’s hands, de stroyed the peace and prosperity of the country, and saddled an innocent and un born posterity with burdens too grievous to be borne. Will it be wise to extend the sacreil but desecrated trust of suffrage to more ignor ance, to more vice, and at the same time withdraw those trusts from intelligence and worth ? Men born with the right to vote, as they are born to breathe the air; or enjoy the proceeds of their own labor. Then, why is it that women and children and lunatics and idiots are not allowed to vote i* They breathe and cat anil pay taxes. It is, therefore, the right of society to de cide upon whom shall be devolved the trust of preserving society and administering protection to rights. And it is the duty of society to withhold these trusts from the ignorant and vicious—since the ignorant and vicious should never be intrusted, and have no right to be intrusted with the ex ercise of power by which they may roll or kill or torture others. Ami it follows that every society must determine this matter for itself, for it alone is to be affected by the exercise of the trusts created. It is flagitious, it is mean, it is cowardly, it is treason to the very frame-work of society to say that Massa chusetts or a fragementnry conclave of per jured Congressional traitors from other States shall determine who shall be en trusted with the great, duty of preserving society in Georgia ; and language breaks in the vain effort to express the contempt and scorn I l’eel for the dastard Georgian who would consent for Massachusetts or that fragmentary conclave to so determine. The negroes in Georgia are citizens of Georgia. They are free and have equal rights, and shall enjoy them. They will be required to bear the burdens only in pro portion to their capacity. They will be empowered to discharge the trusts when time and experience shall show they “are capable and worthy ” and the good of so ciety will be promoted thereby; and thus Georgia will determine for herself, and not to please enemies or to keep traitors in par ty power. Ashiwarin, one of the Japanese students at the Academy in Monson, Mass., hung himself to a tree on Sunday night, and was not discov ered until twenty-four hours afterwards. His age was thirty, and he leaves a wife in Yoko hama. The cause of his suicide was melan choly, resulting from an incurable chronic dis ease of a private nature.

Should any purchase, and, after a full trial, not feel benefitted, they may write to us, describing their case in full, and we will willingly instruct them how to use the remedy to cure them. Properly used, it will cure, yet, some few cases may prove unusually stubborn and require a little varied treatment, and that sucli (if there should he any) may also he cured, we offer this instruction.
