saved them 1t passed the Civil Rights
bill. 1t nullifsd the Johnsonian recon-
struction and replaced it by one in
which the blacks had voice. 1t rem
dered Slavery henceforth impossible
under our Federal Constitution. And
finally, it crowned the edifce, by imbed-
ding in that Constitution a provision
that every political right and franchise
should be enjoyed by Colored alike with
White citizens throughout every State
and Territory of our Union. 1t is by
virtue of this XVIII Amendment that
Blacks have just voted in most of the
States of our Union.
From first to last, Democracy aud
Conservatism have fought against every
step taken in this long and arduOus strug
gle for Justice and Equal Rights. They
insisted that Blacks should not be al
lowed to fight for the Union, but should
be returned to the Rebel masters from
whom they had escaped into the Union
lines. They fought against Emancipa.
ton, Civil Rights, Reconstruction, En-
franchisement, Everything that tended
to unfstter the Blacks. They raised
formidable riots in this City, and hunt
ed every Black to death, as though he
were predacious wolf. They burned
the Colored Orphan Asylum, throwing
hundreds of Black children into the
street for no offense but their color.
1t seems but yesterday that Democ.
racy insisted that Blacks should not
ride in our street cars, compelling a
poor woman TO walk and carry her in
fant through driving storm to Har.
lem, instead of riding thither for seven
cents. 1t still excludes them from oV.
cry omnibus. To-day, Democracy de-
MES to every Black man the privilege
of driving his own cab or his own cart
and gaining a livelihood by carrying
for such as may choose to employ him.
1t will not let him work at his trade of
carpenter, mason, &c, but constrains
him to be servant an then taunts him
with his servility.
In short, democracy and conserva-
tism (selfstyled) always and every
where degrade, insult, aud fetter the
the Blacks to the extent of their power,
and then affect to wonder that they vote
for the only party that ever treated
them as men. Would not even The
Express despise and loathe them more
intsntIy if they could vote for the party
that has always regarded them as bruteS
and treated them accordingly.

This gentleman was appointed by
Gen. Grant as Secretary of the interior.
Last week he resigned. And then
came a rumpus from the Don Piatt kind
of politicians, and it was charged that
Cox was forced TO resign because he
was honest. The facts are that be, re-
signed because he wanted to, and the
President accepted of his resignation,
because he was willing. Gov. Cox il
a good man but kind of an old maid,
and probably realizes it and resigned
because he was out of his element. He
goes TO Cincinnati to practice at the
bar, while his new found friends are
practicing at all the bars. s.--Loga" RPub-

ONLY A WORD.

A frivolous word, a sharp retort,
a parting In angry haste, i
The sun that rose on bower OF bliss,
The loving look and the tender kiss,
Has set on q barren waste, sl
Where pilgrims tread with weary feet
Paths destined never more to meet.
A frivolous word, sharp retort,
A moment that blOts out years,
Two lives are wrecked on n stormy shore, 500.
Where billows Of passion surge and roar
To break In q spray Of tears; .H.-IH
Tears shed to blind the severed pair
Drifting seaward and drowning there.
frivolous word, sharp retort, ..
A flash from passing cloud,
TWO hearts are scathed TO their Utmost core,
Are ashes and dust for evermore
Two faces are turned to the crowd
Masked by pride with q lifelong lie,
To hide the scars Of that agony.
I
A frivolous word, sharp retOrt,
An arrow at random sped,
1t has cut in twain the mystic tie
That had bound two souls in harmony,
Sweet love lies bleeding or dead.
A poisoned shaft with scarce an aim
Has done mischief sad as shame.
A frivolous word, sharp retort,
Alas for the loves and lives .e. f..
So little cause has rent apart;
Tearing the fondest heart from heart
AS a whiTlwind rends and rives. ~
Never to reunite again,
But live and die In secret pain.
A frivolous word, sharp retort,
Alasi that 1t should be so! H,
The petulent speech, the careless tongue,
Have wrought more evil, and done more wronI
Have brought to the world more woe
Than all the armies age to age

Accident and Loss of Life iR
Ames.

Calvin Johnson, residing near New
England, and his brother-in-law, Geo.
Mckinley, started last Saturday to visit
their mother-in-law North of Ames-
town. At Amestown they procured
some whisky and under its influence,
when within a short distance of their
destination, began whipping their hors-
es. hitched to an express wagon, aud
put them to the top of their speed. As
the horses were flying over the ground
the wheel of the wagon struck a stone
and both the men were thrown violent
ly against fence by the side of the road.
Johnson's head struck the end of rail
and his skull was badly fractured, from
the effects of which he died in about
three hours afterwards. Mckinley was
not very badly hurt.-Mr. johnson
leaves a family to mourn his untimely
loss. Neither of the men we're addict
ed to drinking and their conduct on
this occasion is a surprise to all who
knew them. II is a sad warning, but
one, it is hoped, that will not be lost
upon the community, Athens Journal.

One of the stump orators whom Tam

One of the stump orators whom Tam
many lets loose upon this sinful City
just before an election, thus developed
at recent Ratification meeting:
at is for the Democratic party to
deetrmine whether the American Un-
ion shall be broke in pieces aud perish
or shall endure and extend till she Ri
walls Rome in her palmiest days"
begging this greenhorn's pardon,
the question which he fancies about to
be determined was settled several years
ago. Fifteen Democratic Governors
tried to lead their several States into
secession and disunion, and did seduce
most OF them into treason, hut the I'm.
ion was maintained in spite of their
