with previous announcement, the Friend

II The I" Friend and Hero" ut the time Of
our arrival was harping upon the conduct
bof the committee which had gone to- Wash
ington to request Mr. Mcpherson to giveth !
lpublic printing to the State Journal, to be
established in Richmond He understood
that Messrs. Bond, Whittlesey,a and Lysan-
tder Hill, Mr.. Miller, and Mrs White, were
on this committee that had gone to Wash
| ington for the purpose of undermining
hirn-of breaking up the first organ Of the
colored people, the first to claim for them
their rights, and the first to- advocate the
claims Of free American citizens. The
| action was mean, and he would have suf-
| fered his throat to be cut before he would
have gone to Washington to undermine MIR.

! Committee which were gobbling up the
power Of the State and dispensing its pa
ttrunage as best suited them. Any one who
wanted to get his disabilities removed, or
to be recommended, must walk themselves
| to your Mr.. Bond, or your Mr.. Dudley, or
your Mr.. Washburne. The colored people
could not be too careful in guarding against
such men, who had always been opposed to
| negro suffrage, and yet were Republicans.
Voice 81 don't see how dat can be. -
| Hunnicutt: You don'tS Then III explain
| it to you. Not one of these men believed
in negro suffrage or favored it until the act
of Congress declared it's existence. These
| demagogues are the creatures of circum-
stances, and when they say they came here
to protect your rights, they say that which is
| false. When they say they came to fight for
your freedom, they do not speak truly.
General stoneman will not say that he
fought for your freedom. General Soho
| field will not nor will General Grant say
30. They fought for the perpetuation Of
the Union and the good of this great coun-
| try. This war vas not brought for your
| freedom. Lincoln's call for $4,000 men
| was not made for that purpose. Had Abe
Lincoln worded his proclamation 30 as to
call for men to whip out Virginia and free
the niger he could not have raised regl-
| ment. God Almighty gave you your free
dom, and no one else. ("Ay, ay; dat's So
Now he hit. it."D 1t has been said that l

against the people of the North. l deny
this. I know as high-toned and honorable
people in the North as God ever made.
But l do speak against those who
come down here for nothing but to med
| de with other peoples business and
break it up. Those men are not respecta-
| BILE. If they were, would they leave their
homes where they enjoyed respect and con-
| fdence to come down here to be eternally
boring and fishing for little thousand dollar
and fifteen hundred-do oficesf C"No!
OATS so!") If the people of the North
knew how the political affairs in this State
is manipulated by tricksters and dema-
gogues, their anathemas would fall upon
| their heads as heavily IS upon the rebels
of Virginia. These men down here are
not the flower of the North. know there
are come Of the flower of the North here
engaged in business and substantial pur-
suits, but these chaps were merely left here
the creatures of circumstances, adventures

life, without employment, without money,

| vantage, and their only cry and motive Is

boys, look here, because exposed them in

I am not mistaken, he told me that he was

war. Hemade money during the war, and
now he comes here and makes his hundred
thousand dollars more. Then he pretends
to control the whole political machinery OF
the State, and tells us if we want our disa-
bilities removed we must come to him.
