the loyal and the dlslOyal Every Demo-
GRAFT or Conservative, it matters not whether
he has served in the army of Grant or IN
the army of Lee, is put down by those
owls. those scratch-cats of darkness as
plotting for the overthrow of rights consul
tational. Was there ever such mlslnter-
pretation of right and wrong Was there
ever such farce enacted on the platform
of politics ? Satan sat upon his throne ana
said 81 am greater than God Ihaa.
Stevens sits upon his throne, and from 1t
rules Radical representatives, saying II
am greater than the Constitution
The terriers South echo the words of this
zanv. and grin, and growl, and show their
teeth and gibber that nobody is here loyal
except he takes to his bosom the darling
ideas of the whole monstrous system OF
Radical dia6le2Te. To be Holden is to
be a loyal man. To wear weathercock IN
ones hat is to be loyal man, and, Ike
the bomb-proof, Southside, greedy, bonn
bastic X. P. G. W. W. change sides when
five thousand dollars and eight dollars per
diem are to be gained-certainly this is
"trooly loil."
To blast the Constitution, the trainers OF
the Constitution, the President OF the ma
ton and his Cabinet, and all that are III
any way opposed to Radical Innovations
and the political economy of Radicalism-
is certainly "too muchLy IoL"
Come to my arms you ebony critters,
you are black but beautiful; we now want
YOUR votes; when we have got them you
can go where they say Cain has gone-O,
very "ZoA" We shall be masters of the
"rebels" and the Northern men who
come here and do not side with
US. A question of loyalty you white
men of the South, and of the North.
Stamp them down as vile ealumniators
of your race stamp them down as
men untitled for your respect, and who III
no way can injure your reputation or your
present business pursuits. Come out, and
fear not their power; lend your aid i'll de-
feating their mad designs. Topple the
monster fabrication of Radicalism. Win
now the wheat; cause the smut to be picked,
gathered and scattered on the fields OF Rad
cal rotten ness, to feed Radical worms; to
increase Radical filth and Radical corrup
ton.
You men that have come here from New
York, Ohio and Pennsylvania; believe not
the ISLANDERS which the enemies of the white
man disseminate. You are strangers
here; but being so, does not initiate
against the convictions of your heart, those
cherished political opinions and creeds of
the masses of your native States. The
place should not change the man, The
true mar will remain true under whatever
sun, and will never prove recreant to the
sacred dust of his forefathers. The idea
Will you suffer to be incorporated IN negro
regiments to be marshalled by negro Off
GERS 4? Ponder the question, and decide.
Are cliques of ruffian men, with no other
claim than that which gives them the sup
port of the emancipated slaves, to make
your laws, to browbeat you, to threaten
"Be We men and suffer such dishonor ?"
Look to the past. Do you see anything
there to advise such unheard-of proceed
ings? Remember the present will affect
us but little. Alas the future Of our chill
dren will be dark They will grow up to
curse, and never to bless, the men that
were at all instrumental i'll bringing about
such moral degradation.
