EQUALITY.
Whs said that all mankind are freei
The father Of Democracy.
Jefferson declared for equal rights
For all mankind, both black and white.
In New York State ID came to pass,
If Sambo had large iackass,
MARX this fact well, and pray take note,)
The "Dem's" gave him right to vote.
Dollars and dimes gave equal rights
For blacks to vote as well as whites;
Property in houses, land or logs,
In horses asses, or fat hogs.
Adopt their plan in New York wards,
FroDs "Etunkers" safe to "Sotts" and "Hardss"
Not one in City taxes pay, a-
And ret they carry all the sway.
Who sat in the New York Conventioni
Martin Van Buren, must mention,
He filed the Presidential chair.
The niggers helped to send him there.
Vice President a man became.
Who took niger for his dame;
Had Martin died then Johnson's Niger
Must in the White House cut figure.
Who raised the colored man to famc7
Democrats in the State OF Maine.
Overwhelming the majority Tr =
That declared them citizens and free.
Who in New Hampshire did the samel
Democrats, as they did in Maine,
In Massachusetts, gave the right. - ~
The blacks to vote as well as whites.
Who in Ohio's laws mlde void7
Threw sure ties and bonds aside;
The Democrats they did decide
Black men should in the State reside.
Who passed law and gave the right, 80 ss'
Black men in court as well as white,
Should witness in trial case2 r - 80
The Democrats, sir, il you please.
Who voted to repeal all laws, isfss
Declaring that there was no cause;
That color should no difference maker
The Democrats throughout the State.
George E. Pugh voted for this bill = -
Because he had place to fill,
So to reward this champion bold
They made him Senator I'm told.
Who voted that both black and white g = 50
In the same schools had equal rights7
No difference should be made with any!
A Democrat-Rufus p. Ranney.
In ffy nine one Rufus came, IA = . 4
His rights as Governor to claim.
The Democrats stumped every place,
But he got whipped by Salmon Chase.
Who decided in the Supreme Court
Muatto's had right to vote2
Reuben Wood--gOed Democrat.
When on the bench he stately sat-. =
So after this had been effected,
Reuben for Governor was elected,
Then did the Democrats rejoice
That Mulatso Wood had been their choice.
Who with these facts brought to their view
Can still support this motely crewl
Why this is sham Democracy,
The climax OF hypocracy. e
Now see them wheel and turn aroundS
Are they honest, are they soundl
Southern sympathising traitors,
Copperheaded biting creatures.
Hear them bawl out abolition,
Yelpipg out their own decsionss
Disappointed, fawning creatures -
Insolent, disloyal traitors.
How they howl throughout the nation
Against Abe Lincoln's proclamation,
Niger equality, anna lgamation,
Constitution broken, devastation.
Universal ruin, dcsolation,
Greenback shinplasters in circulation;
Arbitrary arrests and usurpation,
A horrid, corrupt administration.
Down with Lincoln, Seward, Chase, III
And all the black abolition race
Up with vallaHdy and jeff. Davis,
They alone, alone, can save US.
Not a word against Buchanan,
Who let them steal our guns and cannon;
Or, of thievish Floyd, you know,
Who robbed the Indian bureau. rl 80
Not word against gucrrirlas,
Who shoot and hang our brave fellows
Strip our wounded and dead heroes,
Are they not as bad as Nero7
Stop at homo and will not fight, .s.s :
Though they know our cause is right;
CRY out peace and Compromise
Throwing dust in peoples eyes,
Allied with our Southern foe,
Our ceuntry's rights to overthrow,
Dissolve the Union through vcxation,
Ruin this once happy nation. 'fr =
Rouse We freemen. Pat them down;
On their Vaccinations frown;
Hurl them out of place and favor,
On them your maledictions shower.
We have long been cursed with slavery.
And with Democratic knavery,
These men for sordid gain you know,
Our country's rights would overthrow.
Shall this once great, happy land <.lsf te'
BE ruined by slavish band; .FfYf
Ye men so brave with homes 50 free, >v.r
Destroy this black Democracy. ~ Is
