Mr.. Nasby gives his Views on the
Subject.

November 20, 1866
The papers Nv the country are very gen.
orally discussin the question: "Shel the
Democratic party live or die7" wich. when
we take into considerashen tho fact that
the corpse is aiorc US, seems to mo holler
mockery, and heartless trifiin with tho
feelins Nv the friends OF the deceast. Ther
aint no yoosc ny talkin NV It's fucher. coz
its in its fiicher now, and tomb stun mite
ez will be put up, regardlis Of expense,
commonwealth its virchoos.
The Chicago Times and various other
pupers are advocatin the idee Nv foppin
over to nigger suffrage. hev let my Web.
sterian intellcck lite onto this subeck at
yario,,s times, and the moro ] hev consid.
cred il the more lam satisfied that It wont
do. A naber NV mine wunst he'd STUN.
ick.ake, and applied to me for a remedy
In spirit Nv jockelari,y told him that
s,ricknino wood cure that, ez well ez all
other physicle ills. The poor fellow, not
seein it WIZ a joke, took an ounce or two,
and need state the rcsult' He sleeps in
the Wiley. Niger suffrage, wich is rank
pizen, wood end the troubles Nv the Di.
mocrisy. but wooden It end DiInocrisy al.
so7 We mite die gracefully ez Dimocrnts,
but wood our resurrection ez Ablishnists
he certain !? Woodcn't the people. when
we WIZ wunst entomed, forget to awaken us'
My objections are these
!. We cant gobble Ablishen votes with
niggcr sufimgc, for the reason that ef the
people desire !, they'd probably 60 to the
inventors thereof, that they mite 30 ash.
oorcd NV gcttin the gcnooine article.
2. We cant get the niger after he 10 "a
man and a brother. The Times idee is,
we'd ketcb 'em OF the score that tho trash
naturally gravitates to us. We arc too late
forthis. The niger just now Is lookin up
not down, and cf the tax WIZ taken off Nv
whiskey, SO cz to bring that essenshel to
Dimocrntic success wunst more within our
means, and we shood devote ourselves en-.
enthusiastically to the work, we wouldn't be
able 10 get cm down to our level in twenty
years.
Aforc that time shcl hev gone into that
other world wher pollytix wont trouble me,
anil ir the orthodox reljus belcefs Nv the
iay is correct, In the department Nv that
to,her world in wich shell pull up, there
will be strong Democratic majority. Ez
I lifted up my eyes from thence, II will do
mo no parickcler good. ez know Nv, to
be told that the Dimocrcy hev elected their
President by niger otes-thut intelligence
woodn't supply the place Nv the water !
shood be cnllin for.
Its instan, relief we need, and ef life Is
ever pumped INTO the carcass afore Us, Il
must be done to wunst. hev an lice fur
the salvation NV the part, which, Of acted
on will give us lease Nv power for years
Mexico. ....... ..,.
Here Is s,lnthin feasible. Let the South
udop, the Constooshnel Amendment to
wnnst, providin Congress will knock out
the ,hirl section wich disfranchises tho heft
Nv us who are fit for Congress, and also re-
peel the test oath, aud immejitly let John.
son annex Mexico. How will Il stand,
then 7 We hev ten States out, wich we
kin depend upon. Kentucky, Delaware,
and Maryland make thirteen. and Mexico
kin he cut up into twenty moro. or thirty
for that matter, giving ms clean majority In
the SENT, House aud Electoral College. !
hev let my intelek out onto this subject and
ain, mistaken. IN Mexico Is tho precise
populeshcn we kin best work upon. I. They
can ;, understand our speakers" sez ono
objector. Very good, ] admit Il, and what
do we want Of voters who kin understand
us! The downfall NV Democrisy COM
ncnst the mint :hc people begun to IN.
derstand us. SO long ez they took things
on trust, 1t WIZ all right, but when, they
beg,n to question. the jg WIZ up. In,el-
LICENSE is good thing In tho ahstnck, but
you must be modrit in its yoose.
