Mr. Talmage Remarl<s Upon the yteo, and
lmme nsity of Stalwart Lying.
Mr.. Talmagc directed his congrcga-
ton Sunday to sing ":AIy country, its
Of thce," said his tcxt-Judgcs, /, ID.
! and continued as follows: "To meet
engagements in nine Of the Southern
cities and to catch Il glimpse Of the
South land in the spring-timc, made
trip two weeks long below Mason
anu DiXon's line. / went cuiippcd
with questions and for information OH
moral and religious and political sub
jccts. l had grave to visit in Gcor-
gia, that OF my uncle, DR.. Samuel X.
Ialinagc, for twenty years President
OF Oglcthrope University. When the
{ war for slavery broke out he lav down
near the scene Of his usefulness. Hc
was one Of those who arc the adorn-
'ncnt of the Southern pulpit. Such
men as Jas. ii. Thornwcll and Smyth
and Duncan and Pierce arc to be men
. TONED with him. went resolved to
| see and make a report Of what | saw
while South. had no political re-
cord to look after or guard, for the
career OF my usefulness has opened
sincc the war closed. NV admiration
for the Democratic and Republican
parties. as parties, is so great that it
! would take one Of McAliistcr's most
powerful magnifying glasses to catch
4 glimpse OF it.
I AMERICAN POLITICS ARE ROTTEN.
That party steals the most which has
thc pest chance. (Applausc.) I found
Whilc south the most perfect proof
that the bulk Of stories we get here in
the North, distilled by spccial cor; o.
sionutm&, arc sheer tubvica,ions and
most persistent attempts TO n,i.rcurc.
s"n, the real character Of a jar"c Scr
ton oi oar people. There is no more
n"cd ol governmental espionage at
th"l icSton or Savannah and lhc other
Siujh"rn cities than there is in New
York or Boston. Some people have
an idea that the sentiment in the South
lcanS towards the rc-cstablishIncnt OF
negro slavery. All! the people are all
heartily glad TO get rid Of it and the
pains now are placcd under Il better
system OF cultivation because it is
gone. Old planters told me that the
worry and anxiety and the care of
looking after plantation of negroes
is all gone, md now all they have to
90 Is to pay the wages ut the end OF
the month. Put it to ballot in thc
South whether Or not you would have
again the system which prevailed be-
fore the war and you would oct Il
laundering negative. The fight for
slavery closed sixteen years ago and
those Northern politicians who keen
the subject of American slavery still
rolling might as we'll try to make the
Dorr rebellion in Rhode Island or the
attempt of Aaron Burr to found an
empire test for our fall election. The
! whole subject of American slavery is
dead and damned. The negro loves
his work and his South. When we
hear OF rivers dragged and lakes to
fish out colorcd men who have been
hung IN we get but sample stories Of
what the North is expected to believe
Of the South, but they are SO ridicul-
Gus as hardly TO need contradiction.
There is
NO MALTREATMENT OF TIE COIORED
people, and as for American slavery,
look for it in your Northern cities
among tho hrmy Of employees. See
your female clerks. They need vour
sympathy far more than the workers
Of the rice swamp or the sugar plontn-
ton. Find them on Fulton street.
Brooklyn; Broadway. New York:
Washington street, Boston; Cbcs nni
street, philadelphia. We want rcror-
nation in all these places to protect
the weak from tyranMical EMPLOYERS.
and we had better begin our charity
at home.
"Anotllcr Impression is Tint there is-
an hostility to Northern men who
come to the South to settle. The i'm
preston is that they arc to be ku-
EiuXcd or otherwise made uncomiorta-
bic. 1t is lie. They want all the
help they can get from the North.
Ihcy want the. cotton-spindlcs near
the cotton-liclds and Northern mon 70
manage and Northern girls to tend
them. or course there is no more nd
lnlration for fools and braggarts there
than here. a man may go down to a
oouthcrncr as he works in the field
and begin his self-cxultancc, T'm from
BOSTON, an,. Yes, marched through
this very section with my regiments; l
remember killing heiier on your
front stoop. What good thrashing
we gave You, didn't we, now?' Such
a man as that, to say the least, would
not get very hearty welcome. lie
would not be chosen deacon in thc
church and it would not be surprisin"
IT nc moved off on the most mobjIe
section OF fence and came down
without much attention to the landin"-
place. Yes, and should be inclined
to say he deserved it. (Applausc) a
nrookiiyh man is as good as q Mobile
