es at everything they do. Of
themselves they do nothiug we'll.
The best and wisest among them
are miserable bOtches in every
thing. They have nothing to re-

This is their present status, and
the pictureisnot overdrawn. These
are the people that the Congress
Of the United States say must
govern the South, must make our
laws, do our voting, try our cases

These things natural stir up our
wrath, but let us not unite them
upon the deluded victim of Con
gress, the negro. He is among us,
and it is our duty to humane and
civilize him, as much as in our
power. He has just immerged
from slavery, and his vices are
perhaps greater than they other
wise would have been. He is ig-
norant and does not see his own
deformity. We must give him a
chance to learn and get wisdom,
so that his ignorance be not laid
at our door. No foolish prejudice
should deny him the rights of
schools and church privileges.
He is a human being, and capable
of improvement. The world is
advancing acknowledge, the white
race lead the advance, and there
is no fear that the other races will
Overtake us.

to say he holds the power, that
the Republican party has been
led in a wrong direction, and that
he has always been opposed to
impeachment; he has not aban-
doned those principles which he
claims to be Republican; he be-
lieves in impartial suffrage and in
universal amnesty. Within the
last few days Mr.. Chase has said,
if the Republican party should
persist in its present course, a
new party must inevitable be Or
ganized.
The Times special has the fol-
lowing 'The stories about Chief
Justice Chase and the Presidency
are finally coming into some tan
gible shape. He has formally
thrown himself into the hands of
the Presidents friends, and said
that he was a candidate he can
not object to the use of his name
and will run if nominated by the
Conservatives.
The Worlds special says: "If
it had not been for the excitement
of impeachment yesterday, the
President would have almost i'm
mediately reorgannized his Cabi-
net. The State Treasury War
and Interior departments were,
as the report says, to be first put
into other hands. The following
are the persons named as those
WHO were to assume the several
secretaryships: State, VIM. M.
Evarts; Treasury, Mr.. Groesbeck;
War, Ex-Gov. Cox, of Ohio; In
terror, Mr.. Catron, of Illinois.
Mr.. Stanberry would probably be
returned to the position OF Attor-
ney General. No name is men
toned for the new head of the
Post Office department. AS the
impeachment stands, none of these
changes can be expected to be
made; and the administration of
the Government viii probably
continue for an indefinite period,
in the present hands,"

The Impeachment Humbug.

The Impeachment farce, which
has been under the control of the
cock-eyed spoon thief, is evidently
drawing to very inglorious close,
and probably before this meets the
eye of half Of our readers, vote
will have been taken upon the
question of the Presidents guilt
or innocence. Like everything
else the beast ever attempted to
conduct, this trial has gone on in
a ruffianly and lawless character,
and is disgrace in the eyes of
every civilized nation on the face
of the earth. Why the other
managers" permitted this low
butfoon to conduct the entire
proceedings, is almost beyond
comprehension. We suppose they
had either to submit to his ego
tism and impudence, and yield to
his demands, to do SO, or quarrel
with him. Butler, it is we'll
known, is a man of unblushing
effrontery and egotistical ambi-
ton; he is fair type of the Rad
ical destructive party mean,
low, dishonest, cowardly. His in
sulting manner towards witnesses,
his partisan appeals in his speech
es before the s'high COURT his
attempts to say something that
would create applause Or a
'laugh," in the galleries, all go to
prove him demagogue, who is
ready to tyrannize when he can
do SO with impunity, and without
danger to his own person. He is
as arrant coward, as he is an
accomplished and successful pill
ferer of ladies' jewelry and silver
spoons. The Supreme Being, for
a wise purpose, has stamped the
character of this man in his face,
that honest men and unprotected
women might be warned, and
avoid him as they would one af-
fected with the smallpox. But
yet the Radicals worship this
"beast," smile complacentIy at his
brutalities, apologize for his crimes.
Butler is certainly in his right
place-a leader in the Radical
ranks-there let him remain I'm
til the Devil calls him. ~a

Morality Amongthe Negroes.


kept them out of sight of the pub
lie. Freedom to the negro has
brought all his vices to the public
view. He no longer fears the lash,
and public opinion has no terrors
for him. He has no character. to
lose, and has no ASPIRATIONS to gain
a character. ia social equality is
forced upon the South, it degrades
the white race to the level with
the black race. 1t does not ele-
waite the black race to the level of
the whites. The separations of
the races must be perpetual. If
the strong arm of the Government
of the United States forces a legal
equality between the races; the
good sense of the white race must
forever draw the line of desperation
between themselves and the black
race, law to the contrary notwith-
standing. We have ever been law
abiding, but when a law'violating
morality and nature itself is forced
upon us, we cannot lend ourself to
its enforcement. Miscegnation
must not, and will not, be tOlerat-
ed among us. If no law of the
statute book should forbid it, pub
lie opinion must put it down.
These are times more terrible to
us, than the darkest period of the
war just past. We must think
and act. .. 40
So long as we are thrown in
contact with the negroes, their
vices must in some measure have
a. communicating influence upon
the white race. Our children be-
come familiar with these vices.
and consequently do not see their
deformity. Aunt Francis is very
kind to BODY, and therefore he
thinks her good, although he daily
hears her bilingsgate and bawdy
talk; witnesses her amours with
her many lovers, and daily sees
her petty thefts. Is BODY any
better for this education? Is not
his life contaminated? From this,
we argue that it is the duty of the
white people to elevate and moral
ize the black race. In elevating
them we elevate ourselves, and
thus keep UP a line of moral sepe-
ration. We think in order to eff.
feet this, their education should
be encouraged. This is the opin-
ion of our wisest statesmen. tits
not true, that education puts the
negro on an equality with the
white race. To admit this fact is
to deny that they are an inferior
race. If the white race are supe-
rior, the same amount of educa-
ton will keep them always supe-
rior. Because the black race is
educated, is no reason why the
white race should neglect educa-
ton.
To return from this depression,
what are the fostering vices of the
negroes? Their gratest moral de-
pravity is in their disregard of the
marriage union. They marry for
the sake of the wedding. Bigamy
is not regarded as a crime among
them. A pair marries and in a
very short time they seperate, and
both parties are again the subjects
of another wedding in another
neighborhood, and often in the
same neighborhood. A great many
OF the men live openly with two or
more wives. Not one in a thou
sand is faithful to the marriage
bed. Chastity is unknown among
them. The women quarrel and
fight over the men. A man will
take a wife with bastard in her
arms aS ouioLIv % ;f che bod 1900

WHO DIDIFc

The National Mtclligencer, which
contributed its share to defeat Seymour
and Blair, by clamoring for a change OF
the ticket after the October elections
had shown that the Democrats did not
swepe EVERY thing before them as they
had been led to believe they would, now
blames the New York politicians entire.
" for the defeat Of the Democrats, and
threatens to make what it calls some
damaging exposures. 1t declares that
the fact that Hoffman ran ahead OF Sey-
mour, shows the treachery of the New
York managers, and concludes as
follows: We shall not, however,
allow this contest, and the defeat Of the
Democratic party, to pass from the minds
of our readers, but shall place upon re-
cord such evidences of betrayal of trust
as will enable the party represented at
the New York Convention to profit by
the experience so dearly bought. 1t was
with no disposition to find fault or to
question the sincerity of those who DIFF
fered with us in the selection Of our can
didate that we felt called upon to eX-
press our want of confidence but when
we witnessed such total, wantOn and in
excusablc want Of capacity for conduct
ing campaign Of this magnitude, we
deemed it our duty to expose it."
