The Voice of the Bully is Heard
in the Land.

General Chalmers advises theGov-
ernor of Mississippi to arrest the
officers and crew of any steamboat
which may venture upon the "father
Of waters" for the purpose of carry
ing up the river such colored citi-
zens as desire to leave the State.
The liberty to go where he pleases
is denied the colored citizen and no
one is allowed to help him if his
master does not desire that he should
90. We understand that President
Hayes has intimated that any parties
cbarteriDg steamers for the purpose
of carrying legitimate e%migrants up
the Mississippi river will be protect
ed, and if he does not see that this
is done he deserves to be ~impeached.
The role of bully which the eX-slave-
holder has assumed, and the swagger
which he affects about this business
brighten no one. There was a time
when timid people trembled at his
frown but that time has passed by.
We ali know that he is only a bully,
and a bully is always a coward, and
be vii not be allowed to deprive
any citizen of these United States of
their rights whether the exercise of
these tights be pleasing to him or
not. There is little fear, we opine,
that the bulldozer viii be able to ac-
complish, by force, what he desires.
He has driven the colored laborer
to leave him by his dishonesty, his
fraudulent dealing, his IS stem Of
telror.2ing and his refusal to grant
bin the tights which belong to ev-
cry citizen and which the Govern
ment Is bound to see fairly secured.
He cannot by force change the icel
ing which he has thus engendered
and turn his unwilling laborer into a
happy and contented laborer, and so
long as that discontented feeling Y
lists the colored laborer will be worth
nothing to him and he will find that
out sooner or later. la the mean
time, he may swagger and flourish
his bowie-kniGe, his revolver, to
brighten negro men and children,
but he will hardly make wal upon
the United States, or openly break
the avs TO prevent the emigration
of colored men from the land Of
bondage which he has made for
them.-Hq"biicaa Stamford

or ordered each one Of the accused
to receive thirty-nine lashes at the
whipping-post, and the sentence was
carried out. The general opinion is
that the mayor exceeded his author
ity in ordering this penalty to be in
flicted. But then "the Southerners
are the negroes best friends" # they
may be believed.

The emigration fever has seized the mi

of them started for Leadville last V eek,
and more are to follow. The coal ccnpa-
mics are making an especial point of Civ

west, in order that they may accumulate
money enough for the trip and to make

An Astonishing Fact.-A large
proportion of the American people are to-
day d ying from the effects of Dyspepsia or

eases upon the masses of intelligent and
valuable people is most alarming, making
life actually a burden instead of pleasant
existence of enjoyment and usefulness as
it ought to be. There is no good reason

judce and skepticism, take the advice of
Druggists and your friends. and try one

speedy relief is certain. Millions of bot
ties of this medicine have been given away
to try its virtues, with satisfactory results
in every case. You can buy a sample bot
tie for ten cents to try. Three doses will
