ing in the present condition of our State

"WE'LL ALL MEET AGAIN1N THE

of a diving child, rs the red rays OF the
sunset streamed through the easement !:
Good-by, papa, good-by Mamma has
come for me tonight. Don't cry, papa,
we'll all meet again in the morning."
1t was as if an angel had spoken to that
father, and his heart grew lighter un-
der his burden; for something assured
him that lis little one had gone to Him
who sail: Suffer little children to
jeome.unto me, for .ofssuch eis:the King
dom of Heaven. There is something
cheerful to all who are in trouble in this
world: We'll all meet again in :the

soul like trumpet-blast, and frightens
away forever the dark shapes throngin!g

may gather upon our path, disar'oint-
ments gather around us like all army

stroy the hopewithin us, if we have this

{" Bait him with a White Woman

The terrible, shocking, .nameless crimes
Of the Southern niggers, are. a matter
for grave reflection, not only of the
leading minds of this country, but Of
all Christendom. Tospeak out plainly,
rapes upon white females by brutal me-
groes are of daily occurrence. Horace
Greeley and Henry Ward Beecher, more
than any .ner two individuals in this
>, are the authors of these rapes;
Not long ago, Ward Beecher said in q
speech, the way to maintain man in
a position is to take one step before
him being crafty, I desire to captreY
him by guile; take black laanS's; III 1t
him with a white woman, and, isss
YOU will catch the black man. Was
there ever more atrocious or horrible
sentiment uttered by human being,
much less q clergyman, and yet this
dcbauched scoundrel calls himself a
Christian teacher Pandering othe an
imal passions of half brute, coyertly
inviting rapes and murders, has had its
fruits. Niger outrages upon white fe-
males are Of weekly occurrence, and
Beecher and Greeley continue to preach
up the doctrine OF batting the black man
with white woman, while Christen-
dom looks on with horror, but nobody
moves to stay the dreadful crimes.
Democratic voters, shrink not from yonr
duty. Let the consequences be what
they may, Mongrelism must be crushed

The ScaiaWag as he Is.

Welay before our readers talr PIC
;;ture of that vile animal, as.seen some-
times lodging round our street corners.
Tie picture is drawn for "a Georgia
paper, but is quite applicable to the
two OF three scalawags living within
the limits of this District:
Our scalawag is the local leper of
the community. Unlike the carpet
Dagger, he is native,swhichis so much
the worse! Once .she was respected in
his circle his head was level, and he
could look his ncighbor in the face.
Now, possessed of the itch of Office and
the suit rheum of Radicalism, he is u
mangv dog, Sinking through the alleys,
haunting the Governors Office, defling
with tobacco juice the steps Of tie House,
stretching his lazy carcass IN the sun,
on Capitol Square, or the benches of
the Mayors Court, or the police station.
He waiteth for the troubling of the
political waters, to the end that he may
step in and be healed of his itch by the
ointment Of office Tor Office he buns
as topper buns for the satisfying dram.
For office, yet in dim prospective, he
hath bartered principle and respecta-
bility; hath abandoned business and
ceased to labor with his hands, but en-
ploys his feet kicking out boot heels
against lamp post and corner curb,
while discussing the question OF office.
The normal condition Of the oficed
scalawags is seedv. Mayhap, there
hangs about him some remnant of grey
cloth. that faunts him reminder of
the Confederate era, before he fell from
political grace, and was changed into
scalawag. His obsequious meekness and
self abasement in the presence Of the
power that confers Office, cause the
gorge to rise in disgust at the recreancy
Of human nature as developed in full
blown scalawag.
Eager to belle the past, that he may
grasp office in the future, he hath curses
handy ior the cause he once espoused,
and lauds the loyalty of himself in sea-
son and outof season. Where half
dozen are gathered in discussion, there
is to be found o,u .scalawag in their
midst conspicuous because Of his. dirty
linen duster and broad brimmed hat.
The vocabulary of his knowledge-box
is very contracted, and he sings but few
tunes, but these are loyal ones. In his
estimation every feature Of reconstruc-
tion is altogetherlovely; the negro emi-
nentlv 65 for voter but not to hold
office. That is reserved for scalawags
like himself.
The scalawag rewarded with office,
blooms into new existence He puts
Oh good clothes, kicks his mildewed
duster to the devil, shaves up, trims his
struggling beard, and oils his matted
shock of hair. If he is boarding, he
moves into hiredhouse, drives hired
horse, and begins to splurge. To the
sneers Of the unrewarded 'bummers'
his only response is the elevation of his
nasal protuberance He is an Office
holder, and provided he can give bond
as required, he sticks; if he cannot, he
is officially kicked, and relapscs into
his original condition of a scalawag
again.
1.-The tribe of scalawags in this State
is not numerous, but it's members are
very pestiferous, like the frogs of Egypt,
that crawled into the ovens and knead-
ing troughs of the people.
