1t will be seen that the important Chairmanships
have been pretty equally divided BY Mr.. Speaker
Pennington between the black Republicans and
Southern Know Nothings. 1t will also be seen that

tees. This of itself shows who the black Repubi-
cans regard as their great antagonist. They are
very willing to have the services in important posi-
tions, Of Southern Know. Nothings but they are
poses: Let the people reflect on these things. They
are facts, which every one may see and understand
for himself: - ' f's-.sr -7-.--..
