South, and that after the next census this
power will be nearly or quite double that
of the latter. What the white Democracy
at the South is aiming at is not simply SUI
premacy on its own soil, but, with that
and through it, and by the aid of its DEM
ocratlc allies at the North, the control of
the General Government. The slave oil
garehy of the South for years before the
war held this control and dictated the
Nations policy and this is the prize. lost
by the war, which is sought to be won
again by solid South, with the help of
Northern Democracy.
And as to this programme, we take the
liberty of telling the Richmond State and
the Democratic party generally, whether
at the South or the North, that Northern
and Western public sentiment is being
rapidly awakened to the peril of the sit
uation, and as rapidly consolidated into a
strong and unyielding purpose that the
solid South shall not gain the national
of the people are not yet prepared to COM
NIT the fortunes of this great country to
those whom they so recently had to con-
quer on the field of battle. One of the
things they are 'Fgoing to do about it'' is
to keep the Government in their own
hands; and for this reason, judging from
present indications, the Republican party
will in 1880 choose the majority in the
House of Representatives and elect the
president. The solid South, with its red
shirted riiemen, its ballOt-box suffers,
and its bulldozing processes, has entirely
overdOne the business; and now a keen,
sharp, and excited public sentiment at the
North declares with emphatic utterance
that this political conspiracy shall be re-
buked by decisive defeat. A solid South
presages and means a solid North.
Yes, gentlemen, that is what we are
''going to do about it, We are going to
think about it. We are going to talk
and write about it. We are going to vote
about it. We are going to keep the Gov
ernment out of your hands, and to keep
you in the minority. We are going to
enact laws within the limits OF the Con-
stitution, if need be, for the protection of
the rights of sll the people; and we are
going to see to it that these laws are en-
forced. We are not going to let any par
ty rule this country that will not deal
justly by the political rights of the Ne
gro. We believe in free discussion and
equal rights, and we mean to have both /;
and we mean to fight the battle for free
dom and justice until victory crowns the
struggle, and every man in this broad
land can vote as he pleases, with no dan
ger of having his brains shot out by a
bulldozer. We are very much in earnest
on this subject; and if you think we are
not you are gravely mistakenly. 7. In

The Conciliated South.

The Richmond (Va.) State, in amswre
to the criticism of the Northern press
upon the Southern mode of carrying cleo
tions and presenting to the country a
solid Democratic South, sneeringly says:
''What are you going to do about it?"
Every State government is now manned
by a Democratic Governor; and not one
of these governors will ask the President
to interfere by any exercise of Federal
power. Congress, at the last session, so
tied his hands that he cannot use the army
of the United States as posse conaitatass.
Prosecution for alleged offenses against
Federal election laws is necessarily slow
process, and mustbe had at the South, if
tall; and Southern juries will see to it
that Southern white men, if Democrats,
will be in no serious jeopardy from this
source. The Ftconciliated Sonth"-name-
ly, white Southern Democracy-having
gotten the whole political power of the
South into its own hands, and hating ev-
erything that bears the name of Republi-
can, whether black or white, salutes the
North and West with the self-complacent
inquiry: "What are you going to do
about it?'' -
There is one thing that the North and
West should not attempt to do,and which
/ they could not successfully do, were they
| to make the attempt. They should not
on the theory of redressing wrongs at the
South and protecting freedmen in theil
civil and political rights, themselves be-
come trespassers upon the constitutions
rights of the Southern States, considered
as members of the Union. These States
have been reconstructed and rehablitateC
into their former position, and, whethe
it be for veal or woe, the political conse
quences of their autonomy, on an equa
| footing with all the other States, must b
accepted as facts accomplished. They ar
States in. the Union and parts of tn
Union, and not territories or subjugate

within thelimits of State power, there

Rheumatism Disease of the Blood.

The blood of this disease is found to contain an
excess of fbrin. VEGETINE acts by converting g
the blood from its diseased condition to healthy
circulation. FEGETINE regulates the bowels, which
is very important in this complaint. One bottle of
Vegetine will give relief; but to effect permanent
several bottles, especially in cases of long stand
ing. VEGETINE is sold by all Druggists. Try it,
and your verdictwill be the same as that of thou
sands before you, who say, II never found much

Many Of our subscribers have availed
themselves OF our offer, and secured our

the business up by the 1st inst, and there
fore fixed that date as q limit to the time
the offer would be open. There have been
numerous delays In carrying out our

so. We desire to favor all with as much
time as possible, and hence we have con-
eluded TO extend the time till the LIST of
February, 1873. All who pay arrearages
