A Note of Warning.

the "great radical victory in
Tennessee, has the honesty to
confess that this triumph is the
work of despotism. This journal
thinks it a matter of congratuIa-
ton that all the unconstructed
states viii follow in the wake of
Tennessee, but honesty being up
.permost, acknowledges that 'the
sray in which this is to happen
gives thoughtful men some anc-
ieties for the future" We quote a
very remarkable passage from
this candid paper: -..,
1.-THE foresight that the negro
vote is to control everything is
not having a favorable influence
upon the white people of the
South, and we cannot forget that
the whites constitute two-thirds
of the population of the states
that are to be surrendered to the
control of q mass Of ignorant
blacks, and that these whites
must inevitably become the domi-
nant class very soon, whatever
happens this year. y
''H our statesmen could have
taken a glance into the future
they would have seen that "uni,
versal suffrage" was the true So
luton. This would have averted
the peril which is now so obvious
reconstruction by a minority
incapable of governing wisely or
holding a power permanently,
except by continued support of
the general government. 1a
"When the whole people of the
South come to be again enfran-
chised, as they must be, what
have we gained by the temporary
ostfacism of the largest and most
intelligent portion but their fixed
dislike 2 We might have done
infinitely better than this.",
1t would be we'll for the few
craven-spirited, cloven footed rem,
egades in this parish, who have
deserted the post of decency and
honor, to serve their niggardly
ambition-at the expense and hui
initiation of the white people of
the parasitic remember the
above walls of warning. "I,he
whites mustinevitably become the
dominant class very soon, what
ever happens this year, prophet
cally howls the Republican editor.
Think of this We perjured knaves
who have damned your names to
everlasting infamy, for the mere
pitance of power and gain, for the
hour only. C;rin-like, You carry
upon yonr worthless carcasses,
brands of disgrace that will cling
to you as did the damned spot
upon Lady Macbeth's hand
throughout your villanous lives:
" Hear the just law, the Judgment of the
skies,
They that hate truth shall be the dupes of
TEs lies; -....-
And If they will be cheated to the last
Delusion strong as hell shall bind them fast"

70 Social hermaphrodites, or
heterogeneous ''neuter genders,"
are a serious nuisance to the So
ciety of any community. When
they don male attire they should
be forced, by public opinion, to
doff their crinoline and chignons.
Modesty and delicacy is, and
should be, woman's only safe
guard. Duty forces a man over a
trough and rugged road"-where
hoops can't well travel with safe
ty. This should be borne in mind
by the over-ambitious.
