oon,i Wilmington, In said paper these
editors complain against me for the Niece
/ wrote in the, GAZETTE criticisipo tbe
article In the Herald. 1t is right that
the gentlemen who publish the .s,o,day
! Dtspdtch should send me the paper con,
taining their article, or might neve,.
have seen IL. All people Who write
against me, IN whatever baper. sbould
always sendme a copy, with their names
signed and the article marked, so miobt
reply 70 il il 1 saw proper. Now, Messrs
Scheu,, in regard to what said of Messrs.
Bayard and Martins soundness ON the
negro voting question, It is sound and
sensible, as that question ,oyerrides ali
other Questions. Y ou say the law of tins
State and the United States makes the
whites and negroes equal, and that we
should respect the law. Your negro
equality white men are a pretty set to
ASK me to Shield fraudulent law. Did
you respect, in the first place, the old
time-honered Virginia law, when the
leading abolitionists, with tie stallion
Beecher included, sent John Brown 10
Harper's Ferry, Va, In time of profound
peace, to trample on Virginia law bv
committing rapine, murder, burning and
desolatiOn. You are beauties to talk
about observance of the law the aboli-
tionists forced on war, but in their cow :
ardice pretended to be Union-sayiours, /;
they freed thenegroes, then issued green
backs until they were worth only about
30 cents on the dollar, and committed
such long string of villainous acts that
they became alarmed for the hereafter,
and then enfranchised the negro, after
freeing him, In hopes to use him for po-
litical purposes, as follows, for Mr..
Scheu, you must know that when the old
Wing party broke up 1t founded the ma
tive American party, and when the
American party collapsed It reformed as
the negro-equality Republican party
and as Salmon p. Chase told Della
warean at Washington, of high standing
in 1855, the country should not again be-
come united and harmonious until ne-
grees were given the right TO vote, to
balance the Dutch and Irish. Those
were his words. This, sir, was the secret
inside reason for giving negroes the right
TO, vote, as the great body of foreigners
voted the Democratic ticket. For some
reason unknown to us, God made some
people white, and some red, come. yel-
low and some black. If it had been
thonght best they would all probably
have been maze Nones color. u being OF
the white race, and from what / can read
and see, and there being a large majority
of the same white people in this coun-
try, consider the, white people the su-
perior race, and | am honest enough to
say so, and not like some Republicans
carry the lie in the throat by proclaimine
that the negro is the equal of the white
man, and should be treated alike, when
these pretentious, lying Republicans have
not nor do not nominate negroes on then
ticket to be voted for. The negroesknow
| this, and every negro that knows me
knows that l am opposed TO Civ
ing them social and political rights,
but all other just rights, that will protect
them by enabling them to- collect theif
dues for labor and protect them in
their houses, from being entered against
their will, unless by process of law
If negro is distressed and suffering in
lmy neighborhood, try to help him, b,tt
do not lie to him, and promise him
,chdt do not intend to do. You inti-
mateTthat Thomas Jefferson, proclaimed
that all men were born free and equal
andi that ilelndeds llegfoess You, isir,
are not the first niggerite that thought
you said something smart. when you
tindulged in Jefferson's spying, and pre-
| tended TO praiselhinl. What p hyppcrite
you must be, for any man With very
moderate amount OF. sense knows Thorn
as Jefferson was bonn and raised in this
livery Virginia, and owned slaves in that
same State where. John Brown was sent
to murder white people for doing as yoln
great Jefferson had done-owned and
held slaves. And Jefferson, when he
wrote that immortal document wherein
he proclaimed that all men were born
free and equal, could not nor did moi
mean negroes, If he did he would have
been great scoundrel to have kept his
equals in the kitchen,or negro onthouses
or quarters as 1t Is called. You Leaders
of this greenbaek humbug are nothing
but old spawned niggerite Republicans,
tSou are just wanting to get up new
hame.. Why did you not think of tht
greenback party in the time OF the lat'
war, whilst you were flooding the coun
ltry with greenbacks? Negro franchise
was then your ne plus ultra, now green
backs after you have run the nigger fran
