In our last, under this head, we referred
among other things to the following dis.
graceful remark uttered by his Mightincss,
Marcus Aurclius Augustus Julius Cesar
Orlando Packard, the Pompous. 'Gradu-
ate Of Ann Arbor College, and also .
Graduate of the Michigan Bari. -

Admitting. for she sake Of argument, that
the latter quotation was the expression he
used. although Mr.. PnILlIrs is positive
that the first is the substance, if not the
very exact words he employed. what is the
difference. There is none really. when
viewed from the stand point occupied by
his Mightiness. Does he not, with all the
leaders Of the Shamocratic party, declare
that the "Harper's Ferry insurrcction was
the legitimate and logical result of Black
Republican doctrines ard teaching?"-
II he believes this proposition. cnunciated
generally. we believe. by the leaders Of
Shamocracy. there is no difference wha'cv-
cr, in meaning. between his own and Mr..
Phillips version of the remark. One is
as comprehensive as the other. Then it
follows as a logical consequence that his
Mightincss would LIKE TO SEE THE
Black REPUBLICANS SHOT DOWN,

Do you think, reader, this does his Nigh
,iness Injustice? Do you say that he is
certainly not the narrow-minded bigot we
show him to be by his own admissions
What else can you make Of him?
When a poor crazy man,--made so by
the brutal murder Of his sons.--with less
than a score Of followers attempts to re-
taliate upon his oppressors and prosecutors,
and slays few wealthy slave-owners. the
Indignation of his Migtiness knows no
bounds.-nothing less than the ntter dcs-
trnction of the whole "Blaek-Republican"
party will satisfy him--he would "LIKE
TO SEE" them all "SHOT DOWN"!!
But. do we hear the faintest note Of disap-
probation from him when "Black Repub-
licans." as well as Democrats who are not
willing exactly to bow down and sing the
glories of slavery. are mobbed, lynched.
