PHILADELPHIA, uly 70. 1905.
Mr.. EDITOR: | was greatly pleased at
the receipt of copy of your Memphis
PUBLIC LEDGER.
We are living in strange times, brother
Democrat. The war with its horrors has
passed. We in the Nerth feel its effects
in heavy taxes, hardly otherwise. Here
and there widows weeds, and an or
phan or two, little bit of Grape, and a
few sad faces, man occasionally hob
bles along on crutches, but beyond this
nothing appears on the face of the great
stream Of society to denote that one of
the most fearful struggles through which
a country has ever passed has just gone
by. May God grant that we may never
see such scenes againl And yet under
meath the comparative quiet the careful
observer must see the effects of the war.
Robberies, murders, and general law
lessness attest the deep influences on our
society from this fight. 1t has put back
civilization one hundred years in the
North.
For you, in the South, / have nothing
to say. / am impressed with feeling
too deep for words. In forcing negro
suffrage upon you, the present Congress
has done the North more harm than the
South. They tell us that Education is
the standard Of qualification for suffrage,
and in the same breath they say that the
negro should govern. Do these Con-
gressmen ever reflect upon the mischief
they are doing to met
Let US see how this niger machine !"
runs. Twenty thousand white men in
the North, with all the advantages of
schools-schools which have cost us mil
lions of dollars-send representative to
Congress. Twenty thousand negroes, as
incapable as the stones on the streets,
send representative. The representa-
tive of the white men from the North
the representative of men who have stud.
led fifty years in order to vote under
standingly-and the white mans repre-
sentative vote one way, and the negroes
representative votes another way. Now,
/ ask you, if our vote. if my vote is not
killed, dead? We had better cast lots
for our Congressman than submit to this.
You must invite foreigners to your
shores Cut up your big farms and sell
small pieces to start Germans, Irishmen
and others. Drive the negro into his
place-we cannot afford to make Hayti
of the fairest part of our country.
You look to the Democratic masses OF
the North to aid you in ridding yourselves
of Beast Butler and his beastly asso-
ciates, Grant, and others. If Grant, who
has promised to do the bidding Of Con-
gress, is elected we will have an ignorant
madman, with sword in his hand, doing
the commands of body of greater mad
men in Congress. The wisest of our
Northern statesmen look with fear ct the
future of our country. Weare doing all
that we can to elect Seymour and Blair.
From all parts of the country encourag-
ing news comes for Seymour and Blair.
We will leave this detested "nigger
party THE knaves, the thieves, the
hypocrites of the present Congress
wrecked high and dry in November.
Keep moving in the South; we will help
you.
Respectfully, Csc. R. WELDISG.

LOST AT SEA.

A piercing wall! sudden splash
A bubble or two around
The headlesS pillows onward dash
Above the unknown drowned.
A moments stiffness settles DER
The mute and gaping throng;
Then all goes gaily as before,
With ribald jest and song.
A single line comes on the eye:
"a stranger lost ut sea"
The merchant lends it not sigh:
For the stranger what cares he.
But he thinks of one who Jamed away
In yonths unthinking days;
When blood is quick. the spirits gay
Aud hopeeall i'll blaze.
Ali now he signs! his splendid hall
Still mOurns its absent hair;
And what are wealth. and pomp, and all,
without the loved one there!
A timid knock upon the door
4 sailor stands within - .....
A hurried tale he muma!es DER,
And then is gone again.
And now the rich man dropped his head
His heart grew cold and bare;
The sweet that oozes from the dead
Rose up to the grayish heir
They laid him in the ground close by
Close by the waves that roll in glee;
That the lost at home might still be nigh
The younget lost at sea. Pc.
