The Corners demands Nv the Gen.

come up afterward. Wat hev

The South wants nuasin, and won't
be passified without it. How are
we goin TO enter upon q career Nv
PROSPERITY oness the Government
furnishes the means? We are an
high-splrited bu. an improverisht
people, and want to be cared for.
The war took away our laber, and
left US helplis. GO into Bascom's
any day, or any mite, and you will
see ther a hundred helpls men,
whose fields are untitled and all Nv
EN- groanin over the oondishn Nv
things. Our Railroads are not built,
our slack waterin amt done, and
everything IS at stand-still. The
niggers witch wuz wnnst ourn, are
labrin for themselves, and spendin
ther earnins on themselves. They
are prosperous Troo. But they
amt the ones to be prosperous. We,
the sooperior class, are the ones
which must have the fosteriu keer
Nv a paternal and maternal Govern
ment.
Let the Government do this for US,
and Their will be peece.
Deny US these modrit rekests, aud
there will continyoo to DO that sui
len feelin which alluz exists 10
proud tho conkered people. May the
yooserper and his SENT be wise.
