fore you will be called upon to vote.
By appeals TO your passions and
false promises, most of you have been
induced to join the Loyal League So
cieties The secrets of these associa
tions are now in our possession, and
shall be exposed 30 the werld. They
are criminal ordinations iginating
with bad, Inscriptions men, in order
to control your actions for their own
benefit. They are at war with the
true Republlcanism. BY means of
blasphemous oaths, and terrible
threats, they are intended to bind the
consciences af men, and to prevent the
free exercise ofjudgment in matters
of election.
You must know that men who rely
upon these expedients to carry them
into office, are afraid to place their
trust in the merits of the measures
they advocate. Will you longer re
main in these secret associations, de-
structive as they are to your own
liberties, and forbidden by the laws of
your country9 We appeal to you to
follow the good example of your col
ored brethren in other parts of the
State, and abandon them at once and
forever, and put the seal Of your con
demnation upon the wicked men, most
of whom are strangers, who have
sought to mislead you.
Be assured, colored men, that the
Democratic party of the United States
is the party of victory, as it is the
party of constitutional freedom. 1t is
establishing itself as the governing
power of the government, and right
speedily. For the past eighteen
months, in the Northern States, the
Democracy have carried the elections
that have been held. Next November
those States will elect a Democrat to
the Presidency of the United States,
and the same party WILL ere long, OBJ
tain control of Congress. 1t was be-
cause Of their loss of power in the
Northern States that the Radical
, leaders endeavored to force upon the
Southern States, Constitutions depriv-
ing nearly one-half Of their permanent
citizens of the political rights they had
always enjoyed; and the Leagues were
the agencies with which they have en-
deavored to effect this object. But
even the colored men Of the Southern
States that have thus been outraged
are deserving the base men who have
| deceived and mislead them. In special
elections, which were held in South
Carolina few days ago, the large ne
gro districts gave overwhelming ma
joriUies for the Democratic party
And so it will be in all the Southern
States. The wicked schemes of the
carpet-Dag knaves and plunderers will
return to plague them.
CoLoRED PEOPLE OF JACKSON =
The returns which have been received
show that the Democracy have car
ried the State by sweeping majority.
If you ask how the fact is known, we
reply that the Democrats, white and
colored-not ashamed or afraid of
what they were doing-by request of
the Executive Commit ee, have voted
with open tickets, which have been cor
rectly recorded and reported. With
the rejection of this iniquitous Consti-
tuition, which was designed to Cypress
the people of both races for the ag-
grandisement of its guilty authors,
they will take their departure from
your midst, and leave you with the
permanent white citizens, who will
control the legislation of the State
Eggleston, Barry, Railsback, and their
associates, are all mere Adventures,
who have no interests here, except the
use they have expected to make of your
votes; and now, since the State has
been lost to them, they will take their
departure, to return no more Will
you not, then, come out from the I'M
lawful Leagues, as one man, and join
the white and colored hosts who are
marching to victory for equal rights
and justice to all men, under the De
mocratic banner? 1t is not vet too
late to take this step. Your votes are
not needed to save the State for the
Democracy. That result is already
an assured fact, but nevertheless, we
invite you to come, and with good
will for all, and pledge of mutual
protection and friendship in the future,
we bid you, while it is yet time, cor
dial welcome.
