OF course he had something to say of the
extent and resources Of the tolerably live
and active nation he had been visiting
and Of the honors paid him, and he did
not lose the opportunity to give his own
people some good advice. He said
"If We take view Of the past we shall
plainly perceive that failure to put oul
hands and our faculties to proper ust
has been one of the causes Of the decline
Of our nation. Incidence, while it de-
grades the individual, saps the life of thu

The conservative men of the North tell
us that they do not desire to force upon
us the social equality Of races. The
people Of the South can never submit to
the wild and impracticable theories which
would destroy the very structure Of So
ciety. Nc law that man can enact, no
measure that human ingenuity can devise,
can compel the races to dwell together
upon terms Of social equality. We can
accept no compromise, and We attempt no
DISCUSSES upon this subject. At the same
time, let us demonstrate by kindness and
iorbearance, rather than by anger and
violence, the principles which we hold
dear. Let the negro keep his place, and
we will prove that we are his friends, by
aiding his mental and moral elevation,
but when, under cover Of "civil rights, "
he introduced himself where his presence
is not wanted, he should know that he will
not only forfeit our friendship, but will
provoke collisions which can only termi-
nate in his own ruin.-Rer. d.. Harri.

additional instances Of the determination
