Secretary.
We regret we have not space for the
whole of Judge Fulkerson's very able
letter. The following extacts shows its
purport:-
1.-The sufferers of our nation are a
hel ,,less, unassuming. defenceless class,
and need the sympathy of wise heads
and great hearts. All reforms are small
in the beginning Let US not '.despise
the day OF small things" Shall we turn
our backs on the oppressed. close our ear
to the cry of the afflicted, and shut our
eyes to the suffering condition of our
brethren? Better, tar better for US to
lend our aid to wipe out the foul blot of
corruption that has stained this dearly
bought national independence. and labor
to bring about the much needed reform,
even it our course is sharply criticised.
The wrongs of the people must be
met and corrected. This muttering and
movement of the people will find an ou:>
let somewhere. 1t is true the masses
can scarcely assign reason for their
aff1cton, but we have few papers that
will enlighten them. God has always
been on the side OF the oppressed, and
our rulers and principal actors are greedy
dogs, who care more tor the mess of
pottage than they care for the nations
birth-right, and will be overthrown as
directly as American slavery was, and
every man that stands in the way of true
reform will perish.
There are two ways in which the rul-
ers take advantage Of the people. lst,
Their ignorance. End. Their necessities.
In country of schools and privileges
like ours, the first will be overcome and
where class Legislation and money rules,
the later will be hard to overcome.
This is what we have on our hands now,
May we succeed.
