furnish few paragraphs from the Pre-

coal-back and copper colored caitiffs are, with

On page 81 is the following language

in cities and towns-paces where not one of
them should ever DO permitted to reside at all

and arguments will demonstrate the propriety
Of removing them al into the country (if far and

complete, that these lines have been judiciously
penned."
On page 65 we find the following
"Negroos are, in truth, so far inferior to white
people, that for many reasons consequent on that
inferiorty the two races should never inha1it the
same community, city, nor State"
On page 217 will be found the following
language:
Yet this (the negro) is the fatuous and filthy
fellow whom, by certain degraded and very con-
temptible white persons, are advised to recog-
niZe as equal and as brother Fhis is the
incorrigible and groyeling igDoramus upon whom
it is proposed 10 confer at once the privilege of
voting-the right of universal suffrage! This is
the loathsome and most execrable wretch Crank
smelling and hideous arch criminal that he isl
who has been mentioned one tit to have voice
in the enactment OF laws for the government ofthe
American people.
On page 282 will be found the following
language
depart, therefore, ye wicked and abandoned
blacks, into the regions of darkness and deep des-
pair and oblivion prepared for you, and for all
akin to you, from the foundation of the world and
let the radiant and gem-ke gates of glory afix-
ed to pillars OF gold, be opened wide for the re-
ceptiOn OF the righteous and heaven blessed
whites, who, while inetfably happy, amidst the
damOnd-fenced fields Of superb fruits and flowers
shall, with constantly increasing JOY, bask tor
ever in floods Of richly perfumed and svery-
sparkling light
Such are a few of the principles enuncia-
ted-the policy developed-the blasphe-
nous irreverence OF a work which is burn
ing shame upon the civilization of the age,
a whitening curse upon the "progress " of
the times. This is the policy of man who
was. just previous to the war, hailed by the
slave as his peculiar friend, endorsed
and recommended by the leaders of the
Republican party, lionized by the strong
minded" women of New England, and
adored by those evangelical politicians
whose sacerdotal robes were reeking with
the pollution and filth of the hastings, and
whose missionary labors now are convert
ing not few Southern pulpits into politi-
Cal rostrums, and the Houses of God into
loyal League rooms.
Such, then, is the policy of lead
ing Republican in regard to the ultimate
destiny of the negro, and such as it is he
will have many endorsers among his party
longer be used for political purposes 1t
may be we'll enough for men who have no
other hopes of promotion than by means of
the ignorant masses lately enfranchised, to
declaim to their passions and foment discord,
but when the hour of their trial comes, as
come it must, those among whom the colored
people have always lived, and between
whom and themselves there is and always
must be reciprocal duties and mutual in
terests, will alone be found standing by
them. Let the colored voter be careful of
the man who hopes to derive political pro-
motion by catering to the prejudices and
panGering to the vanity of the uniformed, |
and above all beware of him who seeks to
create dissensions between the races, |
whether he has black heart or merely |
black face.
Bishop Atkinson.
It is with pleasure we lay before our
readers the most interesting letter of Bishop |
ATKINSON. His account of Irish life, man
ners and scenery is most graphic and in
structive, and cannot fail to claim the at |
tention of all.
We expect to receive other letters from |
this distinguished divine. embracing IN
account of the more interesting proceed
ings of the Pan-Anglican Convention, to |
