cOlOrod the bucket-lul. Inefe are
only two parties now, the abolition,
which is, in effect, the party of misce-
genation; and, behind them, that con-
temptable crowd who fear the South,
and have no policy for the North but
expediency. Why did abolitionism
swallow republicanism? Because it
was founded on principles that ap-
proach nearer the truth"
Tho doctrine of Miscegenation thus
having been formally made part of
the republican creed, let us examine
few of its beauties, as given by the
author.
In the first place in order to meet
progressive wants Of the party, it was
necessary to hunt up some new words.
Thus we have miscegonation"---'
meaning the mixture of two races
'Miscegen," is the offspring of oppo-
site races. "Mclalenkation" is tho
union Of white and black. Melalen-
kon is tho result Of the mixture Of
these two colors. Thus we have no
moro amalgation in the vocabulary Of
the republicans, but, instead, misce-
genation, or melalenkation and in-
stead Of the offspring Of a niggar and
white woman being, as heretofore,a a
mule or mulato, he is henceforth
more. elegantly known as miscegen
or melalenkon, So much for ths
nomenclature of tho new biology Of
republicanism.
We learn that we are a great peo-
pie, but we lack one thing to secure
our pre-eminent greatness
.'All that is needed to make us the
finest race on earth, is to engraft upon
our. stock the negro element, which
Providence has placed by our side on
this continent. OF all the rich treas
ures of blood vouchsafcd to us, that
of the negro is the most precious, be-
cause it is the most unlike any other
that enters into tho composition of
our national life."
Without miscegenation we will
never accomplish anything.
"1fwe will not heed the demands Of
! justice, let US, at least, respect tho
law Of self-preservation. Providence
has kindly placed on the American
soil, for his own wise purposes, four
millions of colored people. They are
our brothers, our sisters. BY ming
ling with them we become powerful,
prosperous, and progressive; by refus-
ing to do so we become feeble un-
healthy, minded, until for the
nobler Offices OF freedom, and certain
of early decay"
The following we will not dispute,
lin fact we are rather inclined to en-
dorse it:
''rhe white race which settled in
New England will be unable to main
tain its vitality as q blonde people.
"They need the intermingling of
the rich tropic temperament Of tho
negro to give warmth and fulness to
their natures. They feel the yearning,
and do not know how to interpret it."
If there are any people in the Uni
ted States who would not be damaged
by "melalenkation, they are not the
descendants of Plymouth Rock. It
might do them good--it certainly
would not do them any hurt. Anoth-
er truth is found in the assertion
''that Mr.. Horace Greeley is known
for his devotion to the negro" We
do not dispute this-nobody does.
We have not space for more ex-
tracts. Suffice that in snbstunce we
are told that all religions came from
the dark races; that the "type" man
and woman is a miscegen, that the
negro is superior to the Irish; that
the Anglo-American can only become
strong and comely by becoming q
semi-nigger; that the southren virgins
adore and worship the young darkeys
on their plantations, and are only pre-
vented from marrying them by the
prejudices Of caste; that we have not
won single battle in this war where
we have been unaided by negro sol
diers; that the plantation Of the, slave
holder should be given to the negro
that "Honest Old Abe" guided by
Providence, is taking the right course
to aid most efiectually i'll the great
work of melalenkation; and finally,
that glorious future awits this coun-
try, in which thero will be no whites
and no blacks, but a miscengenetic
! yellow, or, in other words:
"That in tho milleniaf future, the
most perfect and highest type of man.
hood will not be white or black, but
brown, or colored, and that Whoever
helps to unite the varions races of men
helps TO mike the human family the
sooner realize its great destiny"
All this shows us where we are go
ing under the lead of rcpublicanism.
