wuz willin to die for his good-that | cared
not how much Of other people money run

| Academy, for the development nv the IN
tellek NV all races, irrespectiv Nv color.
'ReSOlUed, That in making this change,

81. That in this emergency we are Justl-
1 fed in doubtin whether Noer got tite at all,

,. That if he did git tite, he didn' t cuss
Ham at all
SO. That eff he did cuss Ham, the euss
wuznt intended to extend beyond Canaan
at the furthest, and hence his descendants
go scot free.
a. That eff the cuss Wuz really and trooly
intended to attach 20 all NV Ham. S descend
ants, irrespective of color, to the end Nv
time, it haint NV no eheck in Kentucky, ez
that State hez alluz run irrespectiy Nv any
code ceptin sich ez hez bin adopted by her
Legislacher.
IS. That the theory that the Niger, ir-
respective Nv color, is beast, Is deloosion
a snare, Wich we huy alluz practically held
no matter what we may fer effect, sed; eZ
! the number of mulatoes, to say nothln NV
them still farther bleached in Kentucky
abundantly proves.
50. That the Ethiopian, irrespective Nv

| female Ethiopian, also irrespective Nv color,
| trooly woman and q sister.
/ 'ResolCed That this Institoot whose

Gin it, really. onto US, we bile with indigna-
shuu towards EN- and kin hardly restrane
! ourselves.
| 'Pcsoircd, That at the tables, in the
choice Nv room, and in ali matters where
there is q choice, the African man aud
| brother, irrespective NV color, shel hcT the
/ precedence.
"ResDlced, That Oberlin College, by not
giyin thesons Nv Ham. irrespective Nv color,
| the precedence, shows clearly that it is ac-
| tooated by narrer-mindcd peiudice wich de-
I serves the reprobashcn Nv every luver Nv

i his eder, ct he hez any. IS rather pleasant
! than otherwise.
''Resolred, That we look with lJathin
upon the States north, wich, alluz proiessin
/ friendship for the noble black man Nv the
! Cotton fields, refooze to take him to their

Resolrsd, That eff Massachusetts and
/ Vermont and Northern Illinois, and the
| Western Reserve, in Ohio, are honest IN
/ their profession NV love for the negro, they
will come down with donashuns to assist in
/ the completion NV this Academy.
/ Deekin Pogram didn't know about all
| this He he'd bin edikated in Ham and
/ Hager and wuz a bIeever in 0nesimus. He
/ doubted. Sposen after all this concession
| the niger shood play off onto US? Sposen
| he shondent vote with US after all, but cling
1 to his Northern friends? Or spose he shood
vote with us and we shood thro bis vote git
control, what then? How Good We redoose
EN- to ther normal condition agin after all
| this palavrln.
Bascom replied that he wuz surprised at
/ the Deekin's obtoosnis. First, ef they did
vote with the Ablishonist we yuZ no worse
/ off, ez that wuz what they proposed to do
any how. Ef, on the other hand, they
! didn't what then? The trouble with EN-
now is, they know too much Let EN-,
sed Basc0m, warmin up, let EN- associate
and in twelve months they re presisely fitted
! agin to be servance unto ther brethren.
/ Look, said he, "at the Northern Dino
Grassy and see to what we may hope to bring
! these men in time.
But little more bizness wuz transacted.
| Beverly Nash, Of South Carolina, was
unanimously called to a Professorship, and
a young gentleman Nv color, who, from his
/ strong resemblance to Elder Gavitt, ought
| to hev biZnis capacity, wuz unanimously
elected a member of the Board. The
yoonyun is perfect. Ham and Japheth
hev shaken hands and arc embracin each
| other.
May prosperity attend the nupchels, and
may the issue be fortunate. / hev got over
the disgust attendant upon the fust chill,
and am consekently feelin well.
