Win pnIIunrrropiv rnunucr. rncn the
godly document was labeled "Thc
Massachusetts Emigrant Aid Society"
for which that celebrated divine, Hen.
ry Ward Beecher, took up collections
in Sunday school for the purpose Of
purchasing Sharpe's rifles and putting
them into the hands Of godly persons,
who were willing to "go West" and
shoot "border ruffians" in order to
make Kansas free State 1t still
bleeds But those Puritans are as
full of philanthropy as any ordinary
dog is of feas, and if one scheme OF
imposition wears out, they immedi
ately cast about for another. Instead
Of having the white man-border ruff
fans --on hands now, they have "the
gentleman from Africa" whom they
invited to their doors to help eat up
the fat of the land. But once more
their philanthrophy has yielded toe
large a percentage, remarkable as il
may seem. They have decoyed toe
many lazy negroes from the Southern
States, and now they have conceived
the idea of blackmailing the innocen,
people in the Eastern States, and have
Organized "The Kansas Freedman's
Relief Association" Happy thought
That title alone will cause thousands
of cash to drop into their Treasury, i

FRAUDS MOUNTAIN Hon THE ro-
port of the Glover Committee publish
ed in the New York Star, a few weeks
ago, shows the most astounding frauds
and thefts in the National Treasury
Department and Mint, which has ever
disgraced any civilized nation. These
thefts are directly chargeable to the
Republican party, as its most trusted
leaders aided in covering them up for
years. BY them the Taxpayers have
been robbed of untold millions, the
true amount of which will never be
known until the people decree change
in National Administration which will
overhaul the accounts, and bring tho
criminals, high and low, to justice. We
propose to lay the facts before our
readers at an early day.
