ARMING THE SLAVES.

| Upon this question, Mr.. Richardson, of the
House of Representatives, spoke as follows, a
few days ago.
,Spect Of .Kr. Richardson on tile Negro Question
| Mr.. Richardson, (dcm) of Illinois believed
the strength of the army sufficient to put down
the rebellion, but the indications were that
another and inferior race were to be armed and
uniformed and placed on an equality with the
whites The legislation of Congress is almost
| exclusively with regard to the negro. They
have abolished slavery here, and to the CONTRA
bands rations arc daily distributed. here is
| the evidence that rations are issued TO poor
white people? Supplies at the rate of $ll4, 700
per annum are distributed among the blacks.
| The White people of Illinois are selling corn at
eight cents per bushel to pay taxes thus imposed
upon them. They were employing negro team
sters, and issuing supplies to negroes, paying in
this district for them alone more than would
support the state government of Iowa, MINES
ota, Michigan, Vermont, Connecticut Maine,
Rhode Island, New Hampshire or New Jersey
Not only here, but elsewhere, are negroes suppor-
ted by order of the government, or through the
Quartermaster's order Besides these and other
things for the benefit of the negro, you propose

make the negroes the equals of whites! He

proved this impossible. All these kindred ques-
tions will have to be discussed before the people

ren, another Democrat, the present sub-treasury
system was instituted.
The Mexican war was favored and fought by
Democrats and opposed by the opponents of

During the Democratic administration of
James X. Polk, we acquired Texas, Utah, New
Mexico, and the Golden State of California.
For nearly every new State that has been adj
mitted, for every territory that has been acquir-
ed, for our foreign, domestic, and financial pol
icy, and for every thing that has made us a great
and happy people, we are indebted, under God,
to the Democratic party. When the United
States achieved their independence the limits did
not exceed 82O,6S square miles. by the wise
policy of the Democratic party our national a.
rea has increased three-fold, Or 2, 447 $50 square
miles.
The country owes its rise, progress, and pros
perity, its free institutions and its glory to the
Democratic party. BY the defeat of that party
the country is now trembling on the verge of de-
struction, and if the people would have peace,
prosperity and freedom again restored, they must
return to that only party that can successfully
administer the affairs of our Government.
