They will not thank US for telling them So

practical point of view
What the coored People need is not 50 much
Power as Self -Elevation-not so much better
manners and greater consideration from the
Whites as greater retpect for and confidence IN
themselves, based on substantial grounds. so
long as they remain pretty generally boot-blacks,
tavern-waiters, clothes-scourers &c. from seeming
choice, the Right to Vote will be OF precious little
account to them. But let them as class step
aside from those who insult and degrade them.

those who are of baser spirit though with winter
skins refuse to consider them men and admit
them to the common privileges of manhood We
see no plan of elevating them half so certain or so
feasible as this. There is land enough to be had

They would be awkward at first, and need IN
struction but resolute spirit conquers all ditt-

CONNECTIONS.

Mnen Gen. Jackson voted for the tariff
OF 1874, large and oppressive national
debt was grinding the people, and high
taxes were necessary 10 remove the bur
den. But when, by his wisdom and en-
ergy, he had accomplished his favorite
object OffreeinR the country from this
debt, he took decisive ground for 10 wer.
ing the taxes; and, from the day the
debt was paid TILL this hour, he has advo.
Gated the reduction of the tariff 10 the
revenue standard. What object, then,
have the wings in putting forward his
vote in 1924, but to deceive the people,
and hide their own violated promisesR
When Mr.. Cal houn voted for the tariff
Of 1916, the same Obiect-the extin-
guishment Of the public debt--was aim
ed at; aud il it not hypocrisy and double
dealing for men to hold up Mr.. Calhoun
as authority in their favor, who are, 10

ing too ultra in his advocacy offree trade
and equal lightsf
When Mr.. Van Buren, voted for the
tariffOf 1928, he voted in obedience to
instructions from bis constituents; and
upon bis return home took an active part
in publicly condemning that tariff. 10
like manner, the late Felix Grundy voted
against the sLb- treasury, in obedience TO
instructions: q measure which ne one
DOW need 10. be told he advocated
openly al home and abroad. The wings,
however, suppress these material facts,
which is as culpable as the suggestion
Of falsebood, according TO a theory
which they profess but never Practice
Their object is TO deceive, and they do
il wllfully and knowingly, because lead-
ing men Of their party are elsewhere rep
resenting Mr.. Van Buren as opposed 10
protective tariff, and as having oppos-
ed it during the whole Of his administrs-
tIOn. t
1t was Mr.. Clay's protective system
which Gen. Harrison promised for his
party not to "reVive. II was the prin>
ciple of the compromise which, MI Pres

cry possible obligation TO maintain C.
Andit is this principle which the wings
have violated. They have revived the
old system Of taxing one class for the
