we Desire the Special Attention, of
the Colored Peupfe. ~

The Radical who did more towards emancipa-
ting the negroes than any other man North or
South is the notorious and immaculate Hinton
Rowan Helper now, if VIC mistakonot resident
and citizen of North Carolina. This man began
his work by writing and publishing that famous
and effective pamphlet, "The Impending Crisis"
Since then, he has written q huge volume entitled
=" Mi que" in which he very clearly intimates
that he looks upon the negro IA afsIecies Of the
brute creation, aud believes that he shoullnot
be allowed tolive.nmong the Anglo Saxon:race:
"Nojoque" mas attracted much attention and
been much admired-principally among Rad'cafs.
But Mr.. HINTON Rowan HELPER is so impatient
for the removal or determination Of the negro
that he cauIot wait for tho word Of command (;
that word of command which will most assuredlyy
be given if the Radical party coptinues in power
in this country. And consequently he hasissued
still another book which he. calls "Negroland."
We have not seen this latest production of the
friendly Helper, but VIC hear that its great object
is the removal of the negroes from this country.
Helper is mighty man in his way; and from
his big book, Ncjoque," we make the following
extract, and call the special attention Of the COL
ored people to the same. And We desire them,
further, to understand that these are notthe SD
timents. Of the people of the SOUTH, but Of their
Radical friends in a.e North. 60

and auxiuus to SEQ tho negroes, like the indians
and all other efete and dingy races, gradually
exterinnated FROM the face Of the whole earth.
"On The premises Of no respectable white per.

zen; in no lawfully convened public assembly;
in io rational, moral Or religious society; in no
decenty kept hotel; in no restaurant worth the
patronage Of tho white people. in no reputable
store or shop; in no place whatever where nny
occupant or visitor is of Caucasian blood a-should
the.oa,hsope presence OF any negro or negroes
ever be tolerated"
And this beautiful extract is endorsed, in their
hearts, if not upon their lips. by nine out of every
ten of tho Radical party. Yarmouth, Radical
Governor of Louisiana, boldly vetoed, few days
ago, Just such un Equality Bill as was sought to
be passed lately by tho su-callcd South Carolina
Legislature. And while the Radical Yarmouth
turns up his nose at the idea of negro equality in
Louisiana, Gov. Holden, the great Radical light
Of North Carolina, openly AYERS that after his
party is done with using the negroes 5for political
purposcs, they will he removed out Of ccountry.
And still this is the party to which the inlatua-
ted negroes are go blindly and fatally clinging.
We would say to them; Fling away your ,ambi-
,ous pr, j.cts andfalse hopes Of woa-h, grandeur,
politics and power. Something to eat and to
wenr is what you aJl wantuuw and it is certain
thu, neither outrage, nor political honora, nor
membership in the Union League, will supply it.
You arc running after false gods, ami arc the vic
tins of fnlse tcnchers and designing knaves-
Cast ihess behind you, and shun them as you
would IL louthsome pestilence. Hunt employment;
get.iu out of the storn; 60 to work. and make
fast friends Of tho people among whom you were
born and raised, d,-the only people in all world whp
