=, Givins, On intelligent negro from South
Carolina, held forth, in front of the, court
house last night to a large number of me-
groes. Many white people were also present,
drawn. thither by their curiosity. 10 Givins
possesses more than ordinary ability for
one of his race, and is q fluent and correct
speaker but it was'apparent that hisaasso-
citation with the iscallawag carpet-baggers
had not only corrupted his native talents,
but materially injured his good morals.
He stated that not o single reconstructed
State would send negro to Congress, and
he hoped Old Virginia would not send one.
I universal shout from the negroes:
eyes we will, dogh-sure: !" /" How much
you, git for. canyassing Go fo'th, you
black lamb, from the. folds Of your flock. 81
Gipins said he was neither dogmatic,
conceited, or bigoted, but he would devote
all his energies steadily and surely to OPP
pose such Q calamity. To carry, g. black
man into Congress would break the back Of
the Republican party, and cause a uniyer-
sal amen to such damnation = they would
not allow a black man in Congress he was
not eligible, and before he. would ibe al
lowed to 20 there he would be mobbed. ~ ~
! This part OF the speech produced int nse
excitement among the negroes, causing them
to hoot Givins with such expressions as
eve will send Bayne there, and If he sinks
we will sink with him ~" Oh, git ,out,''
etc. -, .. y ' ~. va. ~ = Il , 80

lstiffragans. He said the, Conservatives
liked It 1.-THE Democrats liked it land the
crowd had better go back to their shackles,
as they had been bought 'ss,.s .9l .I 80
Intense excitement was manifested at
this time, and Bayne. appeared and de-
manded that Givins be allowed to proceed,
.Giyins,, with Q, sarcastic, grin, thanked
,Bayne and sprocee ded, reiterating that the
rebels had bought the negroes p body and
