The Nashnel Central Committee, hevir
notified me that Good either pay an as
sessment Nv thirty dollars toward detrayir
the expenses NV the campane, or go South
and organize colored Seymour and Blair
clubs, desided to do the latter for obvus
reasons, witch are:
l. The entire community in witch | re-
side amt got thirty dollars, ceptin Bascom
and Pennibacker, wich, bein distillers and
grocery keepers, hev materially absorbed
all the capital Nv the place.
| 2. L am fond Nv travel, for elsewhere
find ungleaned fields and pastors fresh. !

and whose nachers hev never bin soured

For these reasons went. Ny first stop

Every man Nv EN- put on his gray uniform,
as they alluz do when they embark into a
pOlitikie enterprise, that Their Democrisy
may not be questioned, and sailed ont with
me to electioneer the niggers witch were
employed onto their plantashens. Their
method wuz short, decisive, and effective.
The niggers wuz mildly but firmly given
the choice between jInin Seemore and
Blare club, and attendin it to heer me
speak, or being discharged from their en-
ployment. liz the planters hev a jokeler
way Nv shootin at site all the niggers who
heevnt any employment, the alternative
mite be considered equivalent to deth, and
wi h an alacrity which didn't expect, they
all lined and all come to the meetin in the
evenin. One niger, when l WIZ half thro
speakin got up and left, sayin ez ne went
that he wanted to work, had lined the club,

merely throw this hint out by the way.
The next pint struck wuz q cheerful
village NV perhaps a thousand people.
Here found better sperit prevailin than
| Good hev hoped for. The druggist and
groceIs were all Democrats of the straight

in the Confedrit army, They were delight

disease, witch they take, omitlin the quinine.
