We Ga not doubt the truth of this picture as II

forty wears done your work for nothing but the
coar,est food aud clothes that they ought to be PAID
for their labor ought not to be hayed with cowhide
at your discretion aud ought to he accounted as good
as you are, so long as they behave as well. We do
not believe the genuine Southron will ever get so
used to this as to Ike it.; aud would Mt have him
such hypocre as to pretend to like it when he
does Mt
We are only vexed that tho Southrons do MT see,
and that their Northern sympathizers Mt try to
make them see, the short. and easy way TO
abatc this nuisance at once and forever. There Is no
excuse for their failure to it, in view OF kindred
deliverance both recent and striking.
For thirty odd years, the South was annoyed ana
convused by the acts and incucations of Northern
Aboli,ionists. These long-haired gaunt-vsaged
canl:ng snufng rascals were as "penpapeuc ana
a, pes,ent" as the friends Of the freedmen now
arc--n fact, far more so. They Kept boIh
the south aud the North in hot water, despite
all the hemp that the former could grow
aud all the rotten eggs that the
latter could discover. There end ofthe "nuis-
ance they created But the South has done for
/ them at last. They may cant and shuttle to their
hearts content, but nobody hears nor heeds them
No Southerner would waste a rope on the lott and
as for stale eggs the boys of the North would grudse
them a bare half.dozen. In short, they are COM

| Now why shouldn't the South extnguish the new
brood of busyb bodies in the same way Why not
block the game of Capt Bryant and his tribe, by ask
ng the colored people Of your respective States to
choose delegates to meet delegates chosen by
the Whites, and let the chosen representatives
Of the two classes or races settle ami
cably all questions that now divide likely in tho
future TO ALLEVIATE them Just extnguish the inter
lopcrs and mischiefmakers by taking away their
trade as you easily and surely do by calling the
Blacks of each County to choose a representative to
meet in State Conference one in Ike manner chosen
by the Whites, and agree on a compact which
shall bo binding on both evermore.
Why isn't this wise feasible, polite beneficent
Why should it not be mutually acceptable Just
agree among yourselves, and professional friends of
the freedman will henceiorth be out of business.
Equal Rights is the true antido,e for equal rights
ourSals; and there isn't a negro in all the South
willing TO give his postal currency for the removal
Of grievances which no longer exit. Why not give
this simple sovereign remedy for the deprecated
" nuisance" fair trial
