stocks and nigger dorgs wich made it
| lively for EN-, but these were incidental
to a patriarkle system. They were blood
nv our blood, and flesh NV our flesh. No
tSoutherner ever sold his own mulatto
children ceptin when he wuz short NV
means, or he'd more niggers than he
wanted. We still feel the same towards
EN-. Ez no troo Southern gentleman
will ever work with his own hands, and
without their labor the lands nv the South
woodn't perdoos to any alarm:n extent.
The races are highly necessary to each
other, pertickerly to us. There must be
sweatin as well as eatin i'll the world,
and ez long ez we do the eatin we are
willin they shell do the sweatin. In this
way We can adjust the relashons of the
two races on a;basis ny mutual advantage
Eff given wat we he'd before, supreme
control and ascendency, we shell treat
the niggers with kindnis, forbearance,
and iGsiis. Here in Kentucky we hev
never bin DISTINGUISHED, and the nigger
hez never he'd vote, and here the mig

At this pint Nv readin the document,

That seals his fate! Goodbye nigger!
See how gentetly they rig the rope and

Bat said the InJanian, snow that
the mothers branes are nocked out, and
the fathers hung, wat'll the children do

That's nothin to us. They are in an
abnormal eondishn, and they must suffer
for the sins nv thor father Ham witch

that nigger bin content to hev lived ez
God and Nacher intended him to hev
lived, all wood hev ben well. But he
must be free, 'forsooth, and this is the
result. lie must try to control his ak
shens, forgetting that there is a nate
ral antagonism atween the CaucaShen
and Afrikin races, wich kin only result
in sich conficks ez yoo hev witnist.
You heY seen a specimen ofthe teelin
that prevails, wher the nigger is free
wat must it be further South, wher the
black cusses vote? But to rcsoom:
''Fhe Southern people in our opinion
regard the questions nv slavery and sec
cession ez settled by the war, and they
hev no inclinashen to try em over agin.
Slavery ez dead ez Joolius Ceeser-the
nigger is free man and he'll be so for
ever. All the whites ask is that they
shall CONTROL EN-. They insist, and just
ly SO, that they shell hev the rite to man
age the inferior race They want, and
viii hev, the rite to fix their wages, their
hours Of labor, their outgoing and IN
comins. Wv course the Southern idea
must be carried ont. Their must be no
sich nonsense ez skools among EN-, for
wat does labrer want Nv that learnln
wich half NV us, his sooperiors haven't
got? Neither must they own land, tor
that wood onft EN- from dischargin their
material servis But the power must be
in our hands. The people Nv the South
earnestly desire peace, but her people
feel that they can't prosper so long ez
control is in the hands NV the niggers
and the few carpet baggers wich hev IN
vaded u.s. The South will never prosper
SO long ez the naas of the men represen-
tin her intelligence are disiranchlsed-
so long" ''4 1a.
Here wuz another interrupshen. "Please
ParsoE," sung ont Issaker Gavitt's little
brother, sweet boy NV 9, spittin out
his tobacco SO ez to pormit lin to speak
distinctly. 'Issaker wants you to come
over and read for him q letter wich he
hez jist got" ra.- sfi p 1'n- .. 7--
'Tell =Issaker, sonny, that 1 havn't
time jist now. Run up toward the
Ablishen Mishen skool and get eny Mig
ger girl witch may be stardin ther and
she willread it for hlm.' To resoom:
3d Understand We don't want to de-
priye the nigger NY the ballot becoz we
hate EN-, but solely beeuz we do not be-
leeve he hez the intelligence necessary to
make him safe depsitory NV polltlkie
power. He wood inevitably become the
victim Nv demagogues. the very thot NV
wich makes me shudder. Wood John
Morrisey or Fernando Wood accept a
seat in Congress NV sich constitooencyf
&c, ask their intelligent supporters wat
they think aboutit! 1t is for them we
plead. The very idea nv bringing EN-
to level NV the niger is abhorrent.
Ez for secession we hev given that up
also. We can't be expected to rellnqulsh
our CRATE principle NV State rites, nor
kin we give over the rite NV withdraw
al from a government wich don't SCOT
us. Uv coorse we shell not attempt
withdrawal ez long ez Ablishnists con
trolls the bayonets, for we amt strong
enough. But shood we decide to With
draw, and coercion be attempted, we
shell of coorse resist. But we won't do
probably. The organization IN the
South is interspered with maskits and
sich, is simply for selfprotectlon agln
niggers and Northern wites. $685., 5.t-,
