| ourselves by our past actions ? God made the
Indian here, and gave him this continent as an
inheritance. Have we regarded Gods word
and done with him as we would have him do

made the discovery that the Carib could not be
enslaved, and the New Eneia that King
PhlID. and his noble tribe were too proud
warllke and intellectual to be his slaves, and
soon the negro supplied his place, while the
Indians fell arou1 d like the leaves Of autumn,
and he was tracked to his grave by his blood
In the Mississippi Valley Logan and Tecum-
sch displayed a heroism in defence of their
| native land, and eloquence in rousng their
| Grave warriors to battle for their hunting
| grounds, that would shed luotre the highest
| civilization. We professed a desire to civilize
| them, but while We pretended to offer them lie
| religion OF our Saviour, we sold them whisky,
and to extermlnate them supplied them with
| blankets stepped in the deadly poison Of small
| pox. We have driven the Spanlard, the
| Frenchman and the Indian from our valley
what shall we do with the negro? Shall. we
| extcrminate the white man who was so untor-
| tunate as to hold him as a slave, or shall we
| drive HIM, too, from the face of the earth as
we have driven other inferior races. What
we have done we are likely to do again, for
do not imagine the present Or rising generation
are more rego or mercitul than our fathers
| were. Can we live in peace with him? Nt
tions OF different colors and different orglnlzl-
tions. Take Spain for an example. When
the PhHnlcian coonzed tho Peninsula he
| drove the Old Basque to the mountains, where
! TO thus day he remains, speaking a language IN
known to the world, except the Basque.
The Romans conquered it and held possess

Goths overrun and held it down to I'll, and
then the whole population was of the white race

The Saracen, overrun Andalusia aud
conquered Spain with ID dark and
| tawny people, Spain was camp of
| cruel warfare for T75 year, down to the fall of
| the Alhambra in the siege Of Granada, and
Brabdill the Unlucky, delivered up the keys to
Ferdinand and Isabella, 1902. History does
| not record an instance where harmony has cx-
lsted between people Of different colors and
different organizations. Our nature must be
Changed Or the negro change his SKIN; aour

SO sure as is Il maths&sttieal proposition, or
fixed axiom, SO surely will our race do with
the negro what they have done before, and
| may God help the negro. My proposition is to
cry aloud for the establishment Of the Monroe

! whip Maximil!an out of Mexico, and invite the
negroes to colonize there, in u country adap-
ted to their physical organizations, and among
a people resembling them in complexion and
! habits, where they can live easier, work less
and be free to die as they please without our

| this England will join with France and we will

their territories will pay the expenses; and
j while the Southern negroes, backed by the
| whites urged by revenge, rush the French
and Austrlans; send 500, 600 Fenians into Can
ada, and give each home, Of which the Irisi,-
man has been robbed for centuries. During
this russic, and it later,
all tbe liberals Of Europe viii rush 20
| shores, and our ranks swelled by tens Of thou
sands, and the issue will be cert0tn, for all
| Europe cannot whip us, while We fight against
! tyranny.
| L have lifted my voice for the last time
! against European immigration, either German
| or Irish. for now the tyranny Of the Old world
| threatens us; an willing any white man who
has soul, should fly from the rotten totter-
ing Kingdoms Of Europe tc my native valley for
il home, 10 cultivate its soil, to enjoy our free
| dom and defend our constitution. | thirst ia
| soul to see Irishmen avenged for injuries and
insults received from Engiand for five hundred
years. May God grant them all they demand,
| Il broad, deep, lasting and eternal separation
| from England and with liberty and c0nstitu-
tOn like own. In heart and soul | am
Fenan in feeling; were [ an Irshman would
be u Fenian in fact. What Irish blood there
is in my veins boils when [ remember what
ireland has suffered. England las banished
millions from q home and country, while she
has heard the wall Of millions that remained,
crying for bread, and seen them starvc and do
unm ourncd She has heard the song OF the
eXiled Irishman in distant lands, with GOODNESS
and Indifference, as he sung with deepest emo
ton
''The wild deer and elk to their covert fee,
Bot have refuge from famine and danger,
home and = country remain not FOR me-"
May every true-hearted american help the
Irshman to win back his home and his country,
and vow to sleep with E.nme C anl Fitzgerald,
but that it shall be accomplished.
Then will our noble valley do her duty and
| lifting her braH ny arm, rush to the rescue;
| and while we plant our standard on the turrets
| Of Cheputapec, drive Maximil an into the sea
| with Napoleon French and Austrian legions;
then, turning north, untu1l it on the fortress
| of Quebec, and dye the British and
| Irish channels with English blood, but
Mexico anC Ireland shall be free AND indie

| Greece, has struck for liberty: the land where
the harp OF Homer was strung, Siud the rushing
eioqueace OF Demosthenes Was heard with
rapture in her forum; the land Of the glorious
| Leonidas. and the just AristdCs, demanded the
| liberty of her ancient days, but the monarchtes

| banner Of freedom with proilise ct aid from
| France, but the foul birds of prey. Austria and
