gro Equality and Fusion.
Notwithstanding the tendency of black re-
publican doctrines, and the aim Of great ma
ny oil the peculiar friends Of the 'nigger, the
public feeling in Ohio has not yet been suffi-
ciently prepared for complete equality all at
once Knowing this, the leaders prudently
postponed during the last session Of the Legis-
lature, the request that the people should strike
the word "white" from their constitution.
An amusing incident occurred at Canton che
other day which fully illustrates the present
position of the black republican leaders-the
quandary in which they are involved. We
would in the politest way imaginable inquire of
our black republican cotemporary if he thinks
Holiday was served properly by his black re-
publican friends and in conformity to the prn-
ciples and teachings of the party? We are in.
debtcd to that staunch Democratic paper, the
Stark County Democrat for the particulars,
which must have been highly diverting to those
whose sympathy for the negro was not purely
political.
What do the darkies think now,-that they
can ride in black republican coaches and dine
at black republican tables, ank be buried side by
side, as they sit and walk and ride side by side,
with their wltite black republican friends?
When that mulatto prisoner, Fred Douglas
heris of this, he will be very indignant and
knit those woolly eyebrows of his at the ed itor
of the Journal if he does not splinter a lance
in defence of niger equality, and administer
keen rebuke TO Hatcher and UnderhiIl, Letter
and Frease, for cooly and indiferently stand
ing by and permitting the perpatration of such
an outrage, as to expeI an acknowledged black
republican from the public dinner tpble Oh ac-
count of his color; for are We not told by the
poet
| Ills not the dainty texture Of the skin,
But peace of mind and harmony within"

! TROUBLE AMONG THE WOoLY Ds!--FREE-
DOM SUFFERING IN OHIo!-~JUpGE fancy sUs-
TANNED BY REPUBLICANS IN CASrON-An in
cidcnt occurred yesterday in our usually quiet
town, which, for d short time endangered the
earthly existence OF Dlach Republican. Court
being in the first week OF its session, our excel
lent hotels were more than usually crowded
with guests. Our hosts of the Franklin House
while attending yesterday to their hume Gus
friends at the first dinner table, observed a cel-
ored individual about the hue of his satanic ma
jesty safely located among his Republican bre-
thren, and evidently preparing to do justice to
the ample repaSt before him. 1t seems Mr. FL.
lison politely requested his Black republican
friend to wait and eat at the second table,
But the stomach and disposition of Sambo (who
by the way, was genteel enough to all appear
ance, declined to yield to the request thinking,
we presume, that he was safe while among his
Republican friends. Mr.. Ellison however was
disposed to get rid of the "culed gem mani and
took hold of his collar to help hm out--~Juhn
soon came to his assistance, (for Sambo resisted)
two other employees Of the House lent Il hand
and he was elected after quite struggle noens
voIens. Frank, the hostler, became very ear
nest in the scutfle and drew knife on the dar-
kie. The scene, of course, created no little ex-
ctement about the door for few minutes.
The remarks made by the darkie after the
eiectlnent was served on him, were quite inter-
esting He said if this was RepubiicanjsD,, to
drive man from dinner table provided for
the public he wanted no more of it, lie re.
minded our Republican friend, Ellison, that he
electioneered with him last fall at his coal pits
to use his influence for General" Fremont.
We learn that the coored hero of this affair
lives in Lexington township, and his name is
Holiday. The excitement in Lexington among
the Republican masses will be great when they
hear Of this outrage upon "human freedom
We do not wish to be considered as censurnc

table result of those affecting pictures of color
ed sutiering--of those piercing shrieks for "hu
man freedom and "bleeding kansas"-of the
heartless abuse of the people of the South--o
the recent vehement denunciations against the
U. s. Supreme Court for deciding in the Dred
Scott case that negroes are not entitled to po-
litical equality. Holiday was foolish enough tc
suppose that all these loud mouthed expressions
of the Republican leaders were sincere. He
finds however, that even in Canton, Judge Ia.
: ney is sustained by the Kansas shriekers, foI
Hatcher and Underhill, Letter and Frease, and
gro equality, and never opened their mouths in
his behalf
If it had happened in Kansas, what shrieks
would have been heard-how the "border ruff
fam cry would have rung. We do like a test
question like this, and to see dishonesty and hy-
pocricy exposed
Holiday thought he was entitled to respect
He was here as one of committee with white
men, to get the Grand Jury to indict some men
in Lexington township for selling liquor. He
probably thought that coming from Lexington
that banner township of Black Republcanism
in an official capacity, he could circle round free
ly among his brethren with whom he was ac
. quained, and who professed to feel so intensely
for freedom in Kansas" and to have SO mucl
| regard for 'human liberty' and the colored pop
ulation. But Holiday knows by this time, "i
is the easiest thing in the world to be msta,
ken," and that aohite Black Republicans are very
un'artain.
