man in Richland District who does not know
me, and they know have never deceived one
Of their race, and never will. Congress pass
ed an act-I have it in my pocket. [GeE. Hamp-
ton here read section l. article 3 OF the act
abolishing slavery. This was only the act OF
Congress. It couli have no force until ratified
by three-fourths of the States. Which was the
first State to ratify it? Was it Massachusetts
or Ohio? No, it was South Carolina. Ala
bama, Arkansas, and the other Southern States
followed and when enough Northern States
had ioined in the ratification, and not till then,
the thirteenth amendment became part OF
the constitution and law of the land. But the
Radical Congress passed another amendment
to the constitution, and wanted the South to
ratifyit. An amendment to disfranchise every
man who had taken an oath to support the
Constitution of the United States, and
then taken part in the wal. We
wanted peace. We wanted quiet and a
restored union, but not this amendment. We
would none of it. South Carolina refused to
adopt il. I would rather the State, and every
man woman an and child N 1t hSe haa SUM- into me ne
such infamy. But che did not consent, and
the rest of the South refused to consent, and
thereupon the Radical Congress declared the
Southern State governments illegal, and all the
acts of their Legislatures void. Have you not
sense to see nov that the act approving the
amendment aboll5hlnG slavery IS, accOrulnS 10
Radical docrine, void with the rest, and that
you have no guarantee from the Radicals that
they will not themselves again reduce you to
slavery? The Democratic platform, on the
other hand, declares that the questions OF
slavery and secession are settled forever, and
the party is pledged to the support Of this doc
trine, aud the Democracy, North and South,
are pledged, and intend to carly it out. The
Radicals may say that this is not so, but to
those of you who eau read, say there are the
documents, read for yourselves. Therefore, l
advise you to vote the Democratic ticket, for as
I have said everywhere, I b. lieve that not only
the welfare, but the safety Of tho negroes de-
pends upon the success of the Democra-
cy If the Radicals are successful. their
fate must be that Of the Indians. II
YOU do not wish to vote the Dem
ocratic ticket, if you do not think you
understand the question, stay away from the
polls. Trust the matter to the white man
whom YOU know. We will see that you are Sc
cure in ell your rigEts. You shall be equal to
the white man before the law. For that we
are willing; but we will never consent that you
shall be superior to the white man. We will
give YOU your rights; but we have some rights
of our own, and we intend to maintain them.
I will tell these colored people how much 1t is
to their interest to go with the Democrats. We
know that if the Radicals succeed we will be
ruined, and we will not be able to hire the ne
groes. Ii you want to vote the Radical ticket
YOU must 60 to the scalawags and carpet-bag-

THE FINE ARTS.
Church,s "Niagarn.,

Messrs. James s.. Earle & Sons have just
placed on view In their gallery painting by
Mr.. #. e. Church. illustrating his fayorite
theme, Niagara. This picture is one of the few
works OF American art that excited decidedly
favorable criticism at the Paris Exposition of
last year, and IL obtained for the artist the
highest prize awarded on this side OF tho At
lantic. Mr.. Church has painted Niagara so
often that 1t would seem difficult for him
to develop any new ideas on the sub
iect, and yet his own Dissatisfaction
with previous efforts has led him to study the
Falls from new point OF view, and TO repro

COLONEL JAMES PAGE retires from Select
Council to-day, followed by the regrets of all
the better class of our citizens, without any
regard to party lines. Although we have been
unable to indorse his political views, we are
forced to acknowledge that his public record
has been manly and unimpeachable, and his
service in our city Legislature one of rare use
fulness. The Fifth Ward Democracy made a
Rad mistake in ignoring his claims to reelec-
tiOn. If his successor achieves half as much
for the good OF the city, our disappointment
will be less than we anticipate.
The evening telegraph. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1864-1918, 1868-12-31

their adherents exceeded their opponents
almost 350, 900 in numbers.
With this great and solemn verdict Of the
American people recorded on the page Of his
tory, the New Year opens full Of promise
"Let us have Peace I" was the motto Of our
standard bearer. The victory at the polls
gives us peace, and with peace come justice
to all men and prosperity, harmony, and good
fellowship at the North and at the South.
The dying year has been marked by events
Of almost equal Importance abroad. In Eng
land, the Tory government, defe ated in the
House Of Commons again and again, has ap.
pealed to the people, and by the people 1t has
been repudiated in the most emphatic manner.
The direct result of the Liberal triumph will
be the complete disestsblishment of the Irish
Church, the further extension of the fran
chise, and the uprooting Of many burdensome
abuses. In France, the chronic disoon-
tent OF the people with the
MAJ oleonic idea of government has
heen made more manifest than ever in COM
plicated series of events, the leading one Of
which was the prosecution of the press for its
publication of the Baudin subscription lists,
In Spain, the people have risen in their might
and hurled the rotten Bourbon dynasty from
power. In Germany the great work of con-
solidation and reform has made long strides.
And the year closes with a war cloud lowering
over the East which must sooner or later break
in ruin and disaster to "the Sick Man" who
has so long impsded the onward march of the
progressive spirit of the age.
