North Branch democrat. [volume] (Tunkhannock, Pa.) 1854-1867, 1865-09-27

Be patient We may not give a full recognition Of
your rights directly but the effort will never be a
bandoned until its success is assured! And We are
NO longer resisted by vast tenacious pecupiary in
terest-an all bat Omnipotent vested right -
Slavery the tree whereof negrohste and white pre-
udice of color are branches, has been cut down.
There is still vitality in the roots but the branches
ar. bound TO wither and decay Yet this 10 not the
work of day; and We must "lesrn to labor, and
Gf need be) 10 scait.
Nov the point in this extract pertinent to
the view we are presenting is, that although
full recognition of the social and political e.
quality Of the negro cannnt be forced at the
present time, slill "the effort will never be a.
bandoned until it's success is assured" They
can 'wait," but they will never abandon RI.
great designs of making the negro equal to
the white man in all pats Of the nation, and
in all situations. .....
Tits thus ma le certain that negro equality
is the real issue in the pending contest. In
all the Northern States the Republican party
are committed to this doctrine; and in the
coming Congress they will oppose the admls
sion of members elected from the Southern
States, unless they will accept the principle
Of the full equality Of all men, white and
blat k, in State organizations. In this man
ner the process of reorga nzation 10 to be dis
turbed aud the sgltalion continued, no mat-
ter what the consequence may be to the peace
repose and prosperity Of the nation. In one
word, the Republicans mean to make this ne
gro question q prominent one in the next
Presidential contest and hence they canaoI
afford to cease agitation now. Bul the people
will take different view Of this subject
They vii! think the Union and the interests
Of millions of white men of more importance
than the idea of negro equality and they
will put stop to further agitation by defeat
ing the Republican party at the polls.-Age

New LAW FIRM.-On reference to our
advertising columns it will be seen that
r. W. KNIoKBRBooKER, Esq, District At
torney, has formed an association with our
old friend, ALBERT ?. CONVERSE, in order
the more fully to expedite and transact his
increasing business.
To the many hereabouts who have
known MIR. CONVERSE well and intimately
during his lifetime residence partly in
this parish and partly in West Feliciana,
we need say nothing by way of advancing
his merits or recommending them to
popular favor. Having recently made
purchase of plantation within conve-
nient distance from Baton Rouge, he in
tends devoting his attention to his two
fold interests of agriculture and the law,
and will be con hand" to practice at either,
as circumstances may require. We wish
our old friend and former contemporary OF
the press an abundant success in his two
branches Of enterprise.

all who would use their position to thWart
the legitimate purposesof the Government,
embarrass It's action, or give encouragement
to its enemies. The oath belongs to war
legislation. It's day has passed. The laws
rendered necessary by the great struggle IN
which We were engaged are among the Gu,
riosities of the past. They have served
their purpose, and they find no place in the
era of peace. The duty of this day Is 70
repair what has been wasted, to recognize
the end.of hostiIities by breaking down the
barriers that were erected between North
and South, between the loyal and the trait

the test oath, and for the suspension Of

already brushed away, or passports across

belong to different order of things, to ar
effete legislation. Will Congress be wise
enough to recognize the new situation, and
show by its acts that harmony is restored
