Democratic Argument.

A GOOD illustration of the fact that the
Southern Democrats will use force, wher-
ever practicable, to compel the negroes to
vote the Democratic ticket, is afforded in
the following card, signed Albert Pike,
which is published in the Memphis Appeal::
"The members of the Democratic Club
of colored men can obtain from the Presi-
dent of the Central Club cards that cannot
be counterfeited, recommending them for
employment to conservatives. No others
need apply. We hope that hereafter,
when any Democrat desires to employ a
colored man in any capacity, he will ask
to see has card, and If none IS produced acilJ
refuse to employ him. To employ those who
have none will be to gj0e aid and comfort
to the eaaenaY. Members of the club desir-
ing cards will please procure certificates of
membership from the Secretary. The
committee of the Central Club, appointed
to register the names of colored men need
ing employment or relief, and to procure
either for them, consists of Martin Kelly,
D. Danbury and Thomas Smith. To the
committee, which is permanent one, col
ored men holding cards, and needing work
or relief, will apply and be registered
To the same committee it is hoped that
those Democrats who want to employ
colored men will apply. =
