gayer moments the sole inspirin and eleva-
TIN performances NV Niger mintrels? Ger.
tainly. On the stage they resembled mig
gers; after the play wuz over, the curtain
dropped. they washed off the cork and went
and took their well-earned nips ez white
men. Precisely so. When this little play
is over, probably we may wash off the cork
and ez caucashens assert our rite to be, as
Nv old, the governin class.
3. Pay. On this head nothing definit kin
be statid. 700 must do ez hev done-hev
faith and take wat comes. | hev had con-
tribOoshens as low as ten cents. and that
even in counterfeit postal currency, witch
wuz no objeckshcn to it down here, ez
among our people it passes eZ well eZ any.

it? Is johnson dead, and does Wade reign in
his stead? Do YOU hev any idea that he
wood let you suffer? Is Their not a sinecoor

the principal sufferers in the late fratrsidal
struggle on the Confedrit side, is it probable
that he wood make VOC an eXcepsheu?
| hev ansered all the objections to the
place witch 700 kin urge, and beg leave to
state some NV the reasons why you should
accept:
A full yeer iutervenes before the meeting
Nv the democratic nashnl convenshen, and
two before you kin be finally inoggarated.
Pending that event you must 20 into digni-
fed retirement. It's the regler thing. For
rest did it and he succeeded so well in mas
term his material proclivities that eff / re-
member ritelv, he heZ killed but two niggers

it and so hcz all NV EN-. Lee has done it bet

successful rebellion" ez the northeners
call our struggle for our rites, tasin the
PRESIDENCY Nv college, in seakin shelter in
academic groves. in trainin noble young
men he led, and in gittin cannon from the
government to teach EN- artillery practis.
! That's the dodge for 700. We hant got the
| academic grove for 700 to walk pensively in
at the twilite hour, musin onto the event
| full past, but we kin easily move that corner
| stun into one. That corner stone Is eZ
| easily shifted cz the democracy.
| There's another reason why 700 shood do
| It. The ediuCashnel interests OF the South
shood be entrusted to them as knows how
| to manage EN-, and to educate. We don't
want it too common. Its too much power.
| | know the power Their is in 1t. I'm about
|
more it would hurt my standin.
| Look at wat miscellaneous educashen has
| done for the North. Moo England Is a
| cloud Dustin with educashen, and that
| cloud heZ swept over the North, ana all
over that country its drops hev fell IN the
| shape NV schools, academies, and colleges
| Consistently, theirs no democracy ther, auc
the heavier shower a locality received Tho
less democracy Their is. In yoor hands i
wood be safe Niggers wooient get 1t, no.
Door whites, but the sons Nv the chivalry
NV the dominent race, they alone wood tree

We hevent the society at the Cross Road
in witch 700 hev been accustomed to move
but wat NV that? Let it be known that VOC
are here, and the democracy NV the Nortl
will make this place NV summer resort anC
Nv winter reCreashen. This will be thel
Mecca-yoors will be the shrine at wict
they will come to worship.
Then come. To 700 the Cross Road
opens her arms, and offers her bosom fol
VOC to rcpose onto. Come! Erect here
yoor alters and yoor fires, until an ashamed
nashen bids 700 take the highest place ii
its gift, in reparashen Nv the wrong they
did 700 two years ago.
