WHITE AND BLACK NEHROES.


We took occasion not long since to call
attention to the fact that the slum gullions
who consiituts the left wing OF the negro
brigade, had lodged the "brother" in their
State Convention resolutions. Moved by IN
.ersst alone, as they are in their struggle
for power, and having found by the late
elections that white people are> Nting tired
Of being heavily taxed to feed cIathe, edu-
cate, incarcerate, and prolect-ln ldeness and
vagabondage four millions of the dark COM
plected persuasion, while able-bodied white
men arc begging bread in northern cities
because they cannot get employment, these
pap patriots are wriggling to get out from
where we said last fall they should surely
come, when they would call upon the rocks
to fall upon them and hide them from the
wrath of an offended and outraged people
They see now that their heads only were
hid, that really their plans to overthrow
constitutional liberty, and to sutjugate
northern white men by means Of Southern
negroes have been we'll fathomed, and those
who SO nsolsn,ly talked last year about the
brotherhood Of man. and the imam and
brother" are now trying to crawfish, and BY
their sneers, the only kind of arguments
they deal in, would like to make everybody
believe that negro equality was igment of
The D. mocra,ic Imagination. But we intend
to bold them to their mongrel creed. Upon
that they made war, and continue TO make
war upon the South, that while public at
tention is called away from them they may
continue to pilIaee national and State treas.
uries. Bat we can tell these piebald gentry
that neithe their lodging, nor beating the
Southern drum as a blind, can draw off the
public gaze from their insane efforts to de-
grade unfortunate white men to the level of
the inferior races, and the infatuated leaders
Of their party furnish the best proof of their
unnatural designs. Listen to the rawlings of
that arch fanatic and traitor, Thad Stevens,
who boasts that he intends to reconstruct
the Southern States "outside the Constitu.
ton" He says:
FoRrIETH CONGRESS- UNITED STATES,
Washington, Cd. CO. March IL, 1868.
DEAR SIR Il have long, and with such ability
as could command, reflected on the subject OF
the Declaration of Independence, and finally
have come to the sincere conclusion that univer'
sal suffrage was one of the inalicnable rights in
| tended to be embraced in that instrument by our
fathers at the time of the Declaration and that
| they were prevented from inserting it into the
Constitution by slavery alone They had no in
tcnton to abandon it rs one of the finally emu
merated rights. but simply to postpone it. The
Committee on Reconstruction have inserted that
provision with great unannity in the bill adj
hitting the State of Alabama in the Union
They have finally resolved that no State shall
be admitted into the Union unless under that
condition. l have deemed this notice necessary
that the States now in process OF construction
may be advised thereof. Yours etc,
TnADDEUs STEVENS
For this nauseous doctrine, notwthstand
ing enormous taxation, the public debt grows;
the Union is kept dissolved; Legislation is
delayed by wicked attempts to overthrow the
Executive branch Of the government; and
the whole country brought almost to state
of anarchy; even the Indians are rising
everywhere on our borders, and in Florida
because their annuites cannot b. paid while
they s,arve on reservations.
Well may these California Radicals shirk
the main issues, and try to hide the negro
and the china brother. The negro made
them what they are, gave them the place
and power they otherwise could not have
got, and we mean that he shall stink in
their nostrils as he does not in those Of 9th
er people.

that is being enacted in the Senate Chamber
at Washington. We hope what is now
shameful folly will not eliminate in wicked
crime, the crime Of perjury, by those who
have sworn impartially to try President
johnson upon the fimsy charges, preferred
by partisan enemies. We are not sure that
