July IL, 1867,
In castin my eye carelessly over the
polittikle field, wich Seward and me
do every sixty days, | thiuk l kin spy
into the horizon a bud wieh is swollin
into most hopeful flower. l IL u
spredin itself iuto hurricane, wich
threatens to sweep away the fabric NV
Ablishnism and purity the politikle
atmosphere. The Radikle party hev
bin at last forced to adopt the legiti-
init endin NV their sooicidlO princi-
pies, nigger suffrage, and from that
the Dimockrisy, eff they are wise, will
snatch triumph litrally from the
jaws NV deth. WEHEv EN- NOW. In
Ohio that question is to be voted on.

Wat the Demokrisy want now ia to so
handle this delikit subjick eI to make
the most nv it.
The great trouble with the party is
that there is no uniform style NV meet.
in this question. On the main ques.
tion VIC are all agreed-we all oppose
Niger Suffrage. Its a part and par.
eel NV o Dimokrat's nacher to oppose
nigger suffrage. The leaders Nv the
party opposed II at the beginnin. for
seein how the ballot wuE abused by
ther followers they trembled for the
Republic of it wuE entrusted to the
hands Nv any more of ekal capassily,
and the masses Of the organization
opposed givin it to the niger, becol
that one privilege, and color, wuE all
that distinguished 'em. It's pecool
yarity NV unregenerated human ma
cher that it must alluz beat down oil
sumbody. The poot see:
EVEN the lice hev smaller ones to bite 'om,
And they still other ones, nd innnitum."
Fortunately, the Dimokrisy bov the
the niggor for heir smaller lice. The
sturdy yoemanry felt it to be a sooth.
in thing TO find, wunst each year, that
in wun thing at least he wuE sooper--
Tor to sumboddy, and SO il will be so
long ez there is Demokraoy. The
troo Demokrat promotes hisself, not
by liftin hisself above the level onto
wich he finds hisself, but by shown
sum one down to lower level, and
ez ther wuzn't anybody else on the
Continent wish they Good get holt NV
the niger wuz, long ago, selected
fur that purpose.
The great trouble is, We oppose
nigger suffrage now from too many
stand-pints Some oppose it on the
skore Nv the inferiority NV the Afri-
kin, but that never wuE a popler idea
with our people. They may hev as.
sented to it outwardly, but in the
own minds they objected. "Ef" ses
a reliable Demokrat to hissclf, "ef
that's the rool, WAT IN THUNDER Is
TO BECOME Nv ME2"
Likewise the idea NV on6tness, wich
others Nv our apossels ADVANCE
They can't read nor rite " shreeks
a injoodishus cuss, speekin to a au-
dience tWo-thirds Nv wich go to him
reglerly TO reed ther ballots to 'em,
and who, when they sign promissory
notes, put an u atWeen ther first aud
last names.
Anuther spceker quotes Noah to
'em, and boldly asserts that the mig
ger is the descendant NV Ham, and
that he is the identikle indiyijjil wich
wuz Gust by Noah but he runs agin
the fact that the rest Nv 'em, wich is
in Afrika yet, hev managed to dodge
the cuss, ez they ain't servin their
white brethren, aud them wich wuz
brot here to be ehrischiniEed hev bust
ed their bonds, and are jest about ez
free, so far ez servitood goes, ez any
body.
There is, ez hev showed, all these
conflicting ideas that work agin US.
Therefore, / want NashnelI Conven-
shun. / want a convocashen NV the
lights Nv the party to set forth au-
thoritivley Why we oppose nigger
sufrage-to give a reeson for il, that
all our people may act together, ez
do other we'll reglated machines. Let
us cum together aud ishoo our mani
festo, that we may know percisely the
Pertikler line Nv argument to pursoo.
1 shel be at that convenshun, aud
hev made up my mind wot platform
to lay down, Ishel 20 back on Ham,
Hager and 0uesimus--I shell turn
from the inferiOrity idea and take the
broad ground that THE NIaaER IS A
