SPECIMENS OF THE LOYALTY.
From Wade Hamptou's Speech as Reported IN

We OF the south feel that she is
leader. She has laugh. us that the path
of duty is the path of glory applause
and | have come here now to adlure you
nv the clories OF the past by the hopes OF
the future, to lead US again rs you have
led US in the past, net always to victory,
hut always To honor. Applause.
Msny OF the dearest Ties bind me to Viz
pluis; one is that which binds comrades
in arms. ICn,ers You know, fellow
soldiers, how strong that Is! Applause
You feel that every soldier who stood by
Won is your friend and you, Nlrglnlahs,
should know thst every soldier, no matter
where from, who stood by you, is leslous
of the fame ard honor OF Virginia, and
feels personal interest in the memories
of Lee and Jackson.

how L. e would have voted. Think what
Jackson would have done before he would

beloved Virginia. ask you to remember
those who have died on our soil and 10
remember that the principles they died
for are again on trial today.

to the white man."
WHAT SOUTHERN SUPREMACY MEANS
[Congessman Blackburn, of Kentucky; In House
OF Representatives, Aprn D. 1873
For the first time in eighteen years the
Democracy is back In power in both
branches Of Congress. We propose TO
celebrate her return to power by wiplng
from the statute book those degrading re
strictions on freemen (the election lawsl,
and by striking away the shackles which
partisan legislation has imposed. We do
not intend to stop until we have stricken
the last ves.ige of your war measures
from the statute book-until we have an
untrsmmelled election and an unsuper-
vised ballot
PAYMENT OF ALL CLAIMS PROMISED.
rspeecb of a Southerner, heard by j. II. Randall,
at Ktzer Hun, Ala, July 81, 1880
The Coulederscy still exists, my friends,
and JET. Davis, the best friend we ever
had. is vet our President and devoted to
our interests, and if Hancock is elected,
and we have no doubt he will be, you will
be paid for all the property you hsve lost
through Radical rule, and you must stand
by the great Democratic party, tor solid
South will give us entire control OF the
general government, and we can redress
all our wrongs.
THE FATE OF THE INDEPENDENTS.
From Senator NJ @. Buffers Recent Speech in
South Carolina
Look at Longsreet He was begged
and implOred not to persevere IN his
course, but he dritted on and on, and
foundered deeper and deeper into the
mire, until be landed hard and fast into
the Republican slough. And what has he
gainedY Scorn, ostracism, Odlum, illwill
worse than oil, the contempt OF the men
who stood by him under the shower OF
death and destruction. He forfeited the
opinion of all honest men for the sake of
an office, and he began by being an indie
pendent
NO NORTHERN TEACHERS WANTED,
from the jackson Miss, Comet, (Dem.O
Several of the newspapers OF this State,
without meaning any harm, have been
rather censOriOus toward Gen. Lee for
employing Northern teachers in order to
fill out his faculty. We believe that be
is doing everything IN his power to build
up first class agricultural college. He
went North for this purpose, IN order TO
understand more properly the organza
ton of college which is new to the
people OF Mississippi. If the curriculum
Of an agricultural college was the same
as all other colleges OF the State, there
would be no use Of establishing one.
LEE AND Jackson THE TRUE PATRIOTS.
From the New Orleans Democrat (Dem.)l
The banner Of the Confe1erscy went
down forever in gloom and disaster, but
1t was eonsecrsed by the blood Of heroes
as dauntess and patriots as pure as any
that ever fought for liberty.
1t lived with Lee, and decked his brow
From FGtes empyreal palm;
1t sleeps the sleep OF jackson now,
As spOtless and as calm.
The men who are now the most active
participants IN political affairs, and who
absolutely control the destiny OF the South,
have grown up and come into power since
the war, and all their efforts and energies
are directed toward healing the wounds
caused by the dreadful strife which made
the South ruin, but which has at least
