The Leve they Bear.

The Lsve they Bear.
How the colored portion Of the
North can be such fools a. to believe
the strong professions Of love for them
made by the BLACK Republicans. we
cannot conceive, Repeatedly have
they been humbuggsd by thcse mon.
sters in human shape, in all manner
Of ways; we. they still. strange to
say, seem to place implicit confidence
in nll that is poured into their ever
ready ears by that class of men, who
have proven a curse to this country.
They have no other trait beyond
deceit. and rascatity to very great
degree. They will all but embrace
the dear "niggsr," while telling
him that they sacrifice their all for
him--their money. and their precious
lives-but let them once get him in
their clutches, and the adored mig
ger" will learn to bis sorrow, that
''thc hills are green, far away" The
following extract. is part Of ap arti-
Gle published in the Boston 7raeeier.
Of the 18th.
New Orleans should be occu-
pied, and stron z chain of posts es-
tablised along the Mississippi. 4fs
ii Uould be q great sacrifice efIife tc
occupy these positions sriM ,chite men
come accessory to enlist certain nxm-
Der ofLlack regiments far this purpose.
and this enlistment under the cir
cumstances, will be perfectly justi-
fable, and fair retaliation for the
proposed pratt cal expeditions of tho
Confeleraies. There are great num-
bcrs Of free blacks ut the North de-
sirous of Responding to the, call and we
hope now they viii be enlisted. Or
ganizcd,a and prepared to occupy the
:ytlior. tsrcr posts az Ire enemy's cous-
try. during tie SUMNER MONTHS.
If the fcderalists can succeed in
getting Black Regiments, for this
purpose, we are greatly mistaken, for
in the North are to be found persons
of the black ciass, who are we'll edu
Gated. and fully capable to form their
own opinions on the subject; they'll
we mistake not, viii be the very worst
regimqnts 10 coa,role, for in all pro-
liability they viii see into the cum
ming of their pretended fr:ends and
svmpathisers aud revolt thus, in-
stead of being used as tools against
us, they will be ofma,erial benefit to
us of the South. They will corn-
nencc the fight amongst themselves,
rather that be subjected to such
treatment at the hands Of the Adolf
tionists. If the editor of the Ira
ve!er imagines that the free blacks of
the North. do not Ear yelloac jack.
he knows very little about their
character, for they fear it more than
the whites, if We can make use Of the
expression correctly. Further than
this, the North bears no comparison
to that of the South. The Southern
negro is made to understand his place
as such, and loves his master and is
obediept while the negro Of the
North has been lead to understand
that he is the eqeal Of The 'eAi,e-
man. and being differently const!tu-
tuted by the Allwise, forsets his po-
si,ion, and irnnsiaes himself the su-
pe,ior being; he becomes DISCUS
tingly impudent. and intractable.
Any person raised in the South, who
may have travelled through, the Nor
thern cities know this to be the case.
How, then we ask, can the Black
Republicans look TO that source for
suecor. They have spoiled tho. class
of their population, and soon. we
opine, they will rue the day they
ever dabbied in the negro question.
