ly creeping along, and in oil prob
ability, the declaration of the
Indiana negro that, in the TWEEN.
tieth century the negro would be
the ruling race Of Amrrica, is moi
without possibility. Mr.. Sumner
has sounded the key note. He
has been called upon TO associate
intimately with the Honorable
Reverend Hiram r. Revels in the
Senate, and he wishes TO meet him
and all Of his race in complete
social equality in all public places.
He not alone desires it for himself,
but he is determined that
all Of his brother of the
white race shall also be
compelled so to do. II these
agrarians could he forced to ac.

iquitous legislation, we would not

ner in his negro worship we think
It high time the decent, respect
able portion Of the white race
should rise indignant and put it
down. But we have no conf
dence in the people Of the North.
They know such legislation does
not seriously affect them, and
they do not care enough for the
South 10 interfere. There are
many Northern men in the South
who will be justly indignant at
this proposed legislation, but 1t
will amount to nothing. Their
relatives aud friends at the North
having no sympathy or love for
the people Of the South are indif-
ferent what amount Of degrade
ton and indignity is put up
on us. Hence they will give
themselves no concern about the
matter whatever and the result
will be, before we comprehend it
and are aware Of it, the negroes
throughout the whole country
will be invested with this right.
Our churches, schools, theatres,
hotels, cars and steamboats, will
be invaded by this black horde,
and there will be no relief from it.

ment Of taxes there would be
some shadow Of right in making
these demands, but instead they
are national paupers. In this
county where they can and do
elect all officers, the whites having
no representation whatever We
venture the declaration that there
are not Eve hundred negroes who
pay taxes, and of that number, the
entire tax receipts do not reach
five thousand dollars. Notwith-
standing this, they make the laws
for the county, receive all the
benefits to be derived from gov
ernment. Yet not satisfied with
