HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,,

Dear Cashin ~ ours of the 18th inst.
to hand, and contents noted. | expected
before | voted to hear howl from those
hell-hounds below, but say to them all
that. God being my help, | shall meet
them at Phillippi. My explanation for
voting for general amnesty is: az
Because it is right above all, (2) Because
I was elected on that principle; our plat
form adopted at the Republican conven
ton at Montgomery, 1874, says that the
Republicans of Alabama demand the
equal civil and political right of all men
before the law" 81 Because | am Grant
man. and Grant recommended general
amesty. IA Because the colored man
in the south wants peace and good will to
all, and hatred to none, and asks for others
what he desires for himseif-an equal
chance in the race of life. We, as race,
cannot afford to aid in any manner in keep
Ing up strife for the benefit of office
hunters Allow me to ask your attention
to few questions which | hope you will
put to Coon Ia carpet-bagger OF the
Spencer stripe Rapier. Curtis, and others.
Is it better for US colored men to forget
and forgive, and have the good will of the
orld, or is it better for US to stir up the
uelties of the past, aud ourselves suffer
liz order that Coon Il Co., may profit
thereby? Do l represent the true prln-
ciples of Republicanism and our party
when I strive to put the seal of peat e
and goodwill upon animosity? Is 1t net
better for US 10 general, especially in the
south, that there be good feeling between
both white and black? Is it not better
that the leading colored men take this
thing in hand and build up our race, build
up our party, upon the true principles Of
right and justice, of republieanism, and
drive those who are striving to ride into
office on prejudice into the blacklist poll
cal hell? Is it not the truth that such mer
as Rapier, Coon, and others, are the sole
cause of our party being defeated in Ala
bama, to-day? Don't you think that there
are thousands of white men in Alabam;
who would gladly join the ranks of thu
Republican party and help build up thu
party upon the strong principles of RICH
aud justice to all, and evil for none? w
must drive out these hell-hounds, and 60 il
for peace between the two races south.
Truly yours,
