ANOTHER REBELLION THREATENED. Z
The Democrats threaten another re-
bellon when the Republicans elect the
next President. Brick pomeroy, whose
journal is widely read in Connecticut,
and whose success us a prophet had a
sad proofin the assassination Of Lin
coin, writes.
eve tell you, Radicals and traitors,
your tool shall never enter the PrCsi-
dental mansion, elected by negro votes
If this be treason make the most Of it
but bear in mind that it is treason
held by 100000 OF white men, who
are ready to fight Tor white supremacy
God help you II the struggle comes, for
spite Of the Rnmp, your niggers, and
all the remaining powers of hellat yonr
command, white will win, and there
will be such an outpouring Of Niger
blood, such "a hanging Of Radicals to
sour apple trees AS was never known
since the world emerged from chaos.
In this connection, u hint, Demo
Gratis In 1868 clubs will be formed in
every town and city OF the country
Let those clubs be composed Of men
ready to fight as to vote Let them be
drilled in the manual Of arms, be as
conyersant with the science of military
tactics as with the Democratic princi-
pies They may not be required to dis
play that knowledge, but if niger or
radical killing should be in order they
will be as ready for that business as to
listen TO the inaugural Of u Democratic
President on the 4th OF March, 1869.
