This is q White Mans Gov
ernment.

The white men of the coun,
try must now move for "W hite
Supremacy They must take
the preliminaries NOW. The
Fifteenth Amendment outrage
is fastened upon the people,
The ignorant and inferior ne
gro is to have a voice in the
government of the Caucasian
race Of the United States, and
the fruits of this is the destruc-
tion of society. This Fifteenth
Amendment must be crushed
out. The heel of the white
man must be set upon it. The
white mans party versus the
Mongrel party must be tried
before the bar Of un-
fettered pupblic opinion. There
is no fear of the verdict. II
the trial is an unfettered one,
the white man gets the verdict,
The negro can permanently
hold no power in this country;
for the instincts of the masses
declare this, Move for your
white mems clubs all over the
Union, that the white mans
party may loom up in 1872,
Taxpayers, do you not know
what it costs to sustain the Fif
teenth Amendment? Thirty
SIX millions OF collars per year,
the price of a standing army to
back up the niger suffrage
idea. The niggers pay nothing
of this tax. The white mer
pay it all-pay it to shacklt
themselves, politically, poison
themselves, socially. Away
with it. Let the white man,
party arise in its might and
majesty, and crush this mon
ster, niger suffrage, forever
out.

Death and Taxes are Sure.

The Assessors Of personal
property will assemble at the
Comfy Auditors Office to-
morrow to receive blanks and
instructions preparatory to en-
teling upon the work of taking
an inventory Of all the proper
tyin the severaltownships fthe
county. 1t is said that there is
nothing sure on this Emundane
sphere but death and taxes. 1t
is a true saying. Useless to
deny it. A man caf hardly
get his taxes paid for one year
before another is tumbled 1ght
upon him, bigger and bigger
every time-and this present
loyal and honest (!?) Legisla-
ture piled on the taxes without
mercy. But we suppose it has
got to be endorsed until the
people become wider awake.

The Coercion Bill for Ire
land.

The so.called liberal govern
ment Of Great Britain has pass
ed an oppressive measure for
the pacification of Ireland. 1t
is much like the ukases Of the
Gar in reference to Poland
Here are some Of its provisions:
No arms can be carried with
out license, Penalty, two
years. imprisonment. There
can be a search made in dwell
ings for arms within three
months from the issuance of
the warrant, the search to be
renewed as often as the officer
pleases. A man can be made
to testify against himself, and,
if he refuses, can be sent to Jail
for six months. Any person
who is out of his own dwelling
one hour after sunset or one
hour before sunrise, may be ar
rested, and, if he can't give &
good account of himself, sent to
Jail for six months. The jury
trial in certain specified cases is
abolished, the Magistrates hav-
ing the sole determination Of
the matter The press of the
country is put under such a
State of censorship as to yir-
tually amount to its suppress
lou, anu Lllsh pdpels "I0 pun
ting their papers in mourning
over the death of the liberty
of the press. The bill is per,
fectly monstrous, and is dis
grace to the age in which we
live. That it will compose
and pacify Ireland no one can
believe who is conversant with
that people. The British Min
istry have evidently modelled
it upon the reconstruction acts
of the present Congress for the
South.

The four individuals Of the
female persuasion, who remain.
ed out four nights on a jury in
Wyoming Territory lately, are
likely to get into trouble with
their liege loro&, who had to
remain at home and mind the
babies. They had no idea
when they advocated W woman's
rights that it meant their wives
should camp out with strange
men for an underlined period,
and be deprived of the oppor-
tunity of even suggesting a
warning as to the character Of
their associates. Both parties
now appreciate the important
fact that political rights involve
duties which cannot be evaded,
and include responsibilities
which may not be shirked.-
And as it is an absolute law Of
the family that somebody must
keep house and boil the pota-
toes, it follows with certainty
that when the woman is out
the man must be in, and who
knows but that is right if he
claims to be the head Of the
house. We do not object to
woman suffrage if they enjoyed
it alone. They can have our
share Of jury duty and the 9th.

The Niger Senator Wants
Tzaws.

Some niggeys, black and
white, recently serenaded the
black Senator Revels, and he
came out and said u think
Congress must, in a short time,
give to the rebel States such
laws as will set them upon a
permanent basis, and we know
from experience that the peo-
in that section will never be
satisfied with anything that is
mild. Nothing but strong laws
will bring them where they
ought to be. And while I am
in the Congress of the United
States, I will do my best to
see that those laws are form.
ed" The laws which these
n;egers wsnt to pass will be as
strong as the suffocating odors
of their bodies.

The General Assembly O.

The General Assembly Of
Ohio refuse to take any action
looking to the payment OF the
farmers of Southern Ohio for
the horses and other property
which they let the Government
have in the pursuit of the
Morgain raiders in 1868. They
repudiate the claim in toto.-
Of course the farmers will un-
derstand that the Government
don't pay for the horses it takes.
1t only pays its bonds. A
bond is far more sacred than
the lost horse of the country
man. That proposition, of
course, will be plain to the
people.

Trial of Daniel Mcfarland.

The trial of Daniel McFar-
land for the murder of the
wicked wife seducer, Albert d.
Richardson, commenced in New
York City on Monday week.
Three days were occupied in an
attempt to procure a jury,
nearly two hundred'persons be-
ing examined before q jury
could be obteined. The exam.
ination of witnesses commenc-
ed on Thursday. Partial pro-
ceedings are published in the
Cincinnati Daily papers. The
trial will terminate as all other
such trials have ended in the
United States. Mcfarland will
be acquitted, on the ground Of
temporary insanity, This legal
fictice has become a part of the
unwritten law of the land, and
judges and jurors are not supe-
rior TO its influence. The man
who seduces wife, sister, or
daughter, deserves death at the
hands of husband, brother or
father. This is the code the
American people have estab-
lished for their social govern
ment, and a failure to execute
it, carries more disgrace than
the enforcement of the penal
ty. 1t has not been written
down on the statute books, yet
tits deep in every mans mind;
public opinion endorses it, and
courts and juries sanction it.
This is the truth, however
much it may be inconsistent
with the precepts of religion
or the provisions of the crimi.
nal code.

Realf, a partner OF old John
Brown in his horse-stealing
