WHITE MAN TO BLACK THE n
GROES' BOOTS.

A negro speaker. called Uncle
advising them not to leave the land
upon which they had squatted:
"The Indians were the first owners
of this land. The whites took it from
them by force, and we blacks took it
from the whites by force, They have
no right to it, and they shall rot
have ii. We fought for it ard we aro
going to keepi it. We don't care for
the President or the Freelmen's Bu.
reau. Wehave sufrcd long enough
let the whites suffer now. The time
was when the white man said John
black my boots = and john had to do
it. But the times have changed,
and | hope to see the day when l can
say TO the white man, John, black
my boots" and be will have to do it.
| will never be satisfied until the
white man is forced to serve the black
man. as we once were forced to
serve them. II they do not like
that let them 60 away. We do not
intend to allow sccesh or Yankees
to drive us off this land because it
ours. We fought for it, and we will
fight now to defend it,"
Whoever they may be that are
urging the negroes to the utteraace
of such NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Chase,
Underwood or Hunnlcutt-they are
the worst enemies the blacks have,
and will lead them to ruin.

killing one than in killing a dog.

Sad Accident at Long Branch.

ONE LADY KILLED-oTHERS INJURED.
A very sad accident occurred at Long Branch,
between l2 and l O'Clock yesterday morning
Two gentlemen and three ladies were return
ing home from a drive, and when near the
Stetson House the horses took fright and dashed
off In such way as to frighten the ladies. They
jumped from the carriage, and where all quite
seriously injured. The excitement called forth
about the hotel, and soon the injured ladies
were placed on cots In the parlor. Medical
attendance was summoned, and numerous
guests offered their services for the relief OF the
Suffering. One of the ladies' daughter of Mr.
Murphy, the stage man of this city, is not likely
to recover. Miss Mohn, another of the ladies'

The Cabinet Rupture.


The Cabinet Rupture
WASHINGTON, August l3.-Secretary stanton
remains here. He insists that he is only sus-
pended, and that he will be restored to his office
by the Senate
The President will appoint Ex-Governor John
A. Andrew, of Massachusetts,, Secretary of War,
in the hope OF having him confirmed by Con-
gress, as he is a staunch radical.
General Steedman will be appointed Assist
ant Secretary Of War, probably,
1t is generally believed that Generals Sheri-
dan and Pope will be relieved of command in
the South in few days.
The reports that Seward and McCulloch were
at variance with the President is hardly cor
rect. Mr. Seward did not wish to have Stanton
removed on personal grounds. Mr.. McCulloch,
Mr. Weles, and Mr. Randall have been con-
templating resignation for some time past
The Cabinet is now in session. and it is re-
ported that quite exciting controversies are
IN progress. The President remains cool and
determined,

The President has struck a decisive blow
stanton, as Secretary of War, has been super
Seded, and General Grant, tor the present, is
appointed to take charge of the War Depart
ment We presume that before making this
change Mr.. Johnson had full understanding
with General Grant, aud that the latter with :
out hesitation, VIII enter upon his new duties.
We know that his appointment, If accepted,
will command the confidence of the country,
and that thus no apprehensions of any serious
loss to the public service will arise from Mr.
Santon's suspension. Moreover, by the eX-
planatory Reconstruction bill, passed at the
late extraordinary session OF Congress- Grant is
specifically charged with the general manage
Inent of the work of reconstruction In being
advanced to the head OF the War Department.
therefore, he will only have larger discretion
