held out to them OF having numberless
native slaves .c 90 their work tor them
and Of boring holes IN the bark Of the

II was freely announced at a recent
meeting that mo Democratic nisger

designed for the beneft Of the faithful
Radicals" whose Yankee friends had
gotten up the affair as a re ward for their

Democratic negroes arr ii likely to
apply. They generally have too much
good sehse to be fooled BY such ridicu-

ten the stories Of the ''forty actes and a

were deluded few Sesrs ago, and are
content to remain where Providence has
cast their lot, aid to seek BY Industry,
economy and good citizenship TO make
themselves independent, respected ard
