open aud manly fight by nation Of gentle
men, and subjected to their sway, might not
drive us raying distracted with rage and
shame but the Yankees - tho most con-
and despicable Of Gods creation
the vile wretchcs, whose daily sustensnce
consists in refuse Of all other people-for they
eat nothing that anybody else will buy--for
them TO lord it over US the English language
must be enlarged, new words must be invent
cd to express the extent and depth Of our
feelings Of modification and shame. No, it
is not possible for us to be reduced to a state
which there are no words TO describe.
Instead Of this, VIC must bring these en-
franchiBod slaves back to their true condition.
They have long, very properly, looked upon
themselves as our social interiors as our
serGs-ther mean, niggardly lves--their low,
vulgar and sordid occupation have ground this
conviction into them. But OF a sudden. they
have come to imagine that their numerical
strength gives them power-and they have
burst the bonds OF servitude, and are running
riot with more than the brutal passions Of
liberated wild beast Their uprising has all
the characteristics Of ferocious servile insur-
rection. Their first aim is demoli' ion 20 the
destruction Of everything which has the APP
pearance Of superior virtue, which excltes
their envy and hate, and which. by contrast,
exposes the shameful deformity Of their own
lives.
They have suggested to us the invasion Of
their territory and the robbery Of their banks
and jcwelry stores. We may profit by the
suggestion, so far as the t"Ud''on goes--for
that will enable us to restore them to their
normal condition of vassalage, and teach
them that caP-iR-hand is the proper attitude
Of the servant before his master. A cock for
a sailor, goose for soldier--a Yankee for
a gen.leman-imagcs iucougruous and unna-
tural.-Rieimond Wing.
