The Register and the Black Republicans.

The Register ana the blaCk NepuDucdnSs
The Register exults over the defeat of the Demo-
Gratis in the free States and consequently, the
triumph of the Black Republicans for it is notori-
GUS that whatever may be the nature of the Opposi
ton in the free States whatever its names, the
Black Republican organization is paramount to all
others and is the controlling organization. The
Register asks
'sHow can the South lose by the Democracy los
ing power: Certain men may lose office and money,
but how the South can make a mistake in ejecting
the Democracy from power, is too hard problem to
be solved by ordinary men,
We answer the Register with the following extract
from the recent speech of William H. Seward, the
leader of the Black Republicans delivered at Roches
ter on the 25th of last month:
In 1885, when the people of Kansas had organ
lied new State within the region thus abandoned
to slavery and applied to be admitted free State
into the Union, the Democratic party contemptuous
" rejected their petition, and drove them, with me-
and intmidations, from the halls OF Congress-
and armed the President with military power to en-
force their submission to slave CODE established
over them by fraud and usurpation. At every sub
sequent stage of the long contest which has since
ragged in Kansas the Democratic party has lent its
sympathies its aid and all the powers OF the Gov
ernment which it controlled to enforce slacery upon
that unoolling and injured people. And now, even
to this day, while it mocks with the assurance
that Kansas is Free the Democratic party keeps the
State excluded from her just and proper place in the
Union under the hope that she may get be dragooned
into the acceptance Of stdue'y."
Mr. Seward then goes on to say that " the Demo-
cratic party must be permanently dislodged from the
government" The reason why this should be done
he says is "hat the Democratic party is inertrica
bly, committed to the designs of the shareholders" -
Mr. Seward thinks that the free States would gain
every thing they DESIRE and that the South would
lose slavery by the prostration of the national Dem
ocratic party He exults quite as much as the Reg
lister does over their in the free States
And yet the Register asks chow can the South lose
by the Democracy losing power"
Again, Mr.. E. D. Morgan, the Black Republican
Governor elect of New York, in a speech delivered
by him on Saturday evening last in New York City,
said "By the little paper ballot the choice Of State
and national officers has been determined and heavy
mnistration New York has spoken in voice strong
enough to be heard even in Washington"
We congratulate our cotemporary upon the COM
pany in which he finds himself How does he feel =?
