Indians by hostile Sioux their strength being variousy

Mississippi nigger, who was sent to
Washington TO represent that State
in the character of Senator, has been
admitted This IL all en- reqie. We
have nothing to say against il, If
Mississippi is satisfied. IL is to be
hoped this debauchery will 90 on. 1t
is TO bc hoped that every State in the
Union will send niger to Congress !;
niggers to both branches Of the
National Legislature; niggers every
where, as officials, high and low; as
law dispensers, and as lawmakers.
Let them wear tho erminc of the
Supreme Court for if they are quail
fed for tho Senate, they certainly are
for the Bench, and give Sambo a
chance on tho Mongrcl Presidential
ticket for 1879. Do not stop short Of
a practical demonstration of the idea
that a nigger is n white. black man.
Only keep on with this application of
the doctrine Of the equality Of races
long enough, and IL will cure itself.
We have no fear that the great, COM
sense masses will not take the
question up and solve it mighty sud.
denly and correctly one Of these days
When they do rise, the leaders OF the
damnable party who have plunged the
nation into this slough Of political and
social infamy, will have to say their
prayers in great haste. We Dide the
hour with due patience.
