tong ne Embossed in regard to the Ala
bama election. and tells its few readers
wha. it thinks Of IL. OF course accord
ing to its statement there is no truth
whatever in the statement that no fair
cleo lion was held in that State. 1t is
perfec :ly convinced Of that fact since Ii
has fund letter in the New York
Sun from q certain D. R. Hundley,
Moor ssville, Alabama, whoever he is
but G ,nfesssdly an ex-rebel who fought
for the "lost cause" and in this letter
Hun LEY says there was no bull-dcEing
at all by the Democrats; that every
body could vote who had vote, and
who wanted to vote, and that the bull
doing was all on the side Of colored
Republicans who would not let colored
Democrats vote. The letter contains an
extract from q Democratic paper pub
lished at Huntsville, by eOlored editor,
in which said editor extols the kindness
Of thu white Democrats t, the poor
bl,ck,, condemns the reckless extrava-
g!nc, of the rascally Republicans
calls others wicked teachers in politics
and instances one or two cases where
som emphatic language condemnatory
OF blacks who voted the Democratic
ii ,ket. If this colored editor is to be
believed, the sun Of liberty has arise
upon the black men Of Lowndes coub-
ty, Alabama, and more than thousand
colored men voted the Democratic
ticket there two weeks ago aud will
hereafter be protected from the as
saults Of the builders. 1t will
be seen from the foregoing that there
are Dem cratic HAIRLESS down in Ala
bama as well as in Delaware. We have
no doubt whatever that II the Every
Evenings negro friend, Harris, had
been furnished with the material for
starting a paper and the brains for
editing one, the Ignorant and wicked
Republicans of Wilmington would have
been informed through the columns Of
Mr.. Harris organ of the fearful india,
mites and prosecutions to which Demo
Gratis have been subjected in the South
A statement Of that kind made from
Wilmington, Delaware, would sound
easily as plausible to the people Of Ala
lama as the same statements made in
Alabama sounds in Delaware. The Mr..
Hundley referred to does not attempt to
deny that the Republicans if left to
would outvote the Demo-
Gratis, but that would not compart well
with the Bourbon idea Of Democracy.
The Anglo.Saxon must rule in the
South whether in the majority or not,
and hence II any other party, no matter
if it is stronger in number, attempts to
rule 1t must be put down. Everything
In the letter shows that there 10 a per
feet reign OF peace and harmony 80 long
as the negroes will vote the Democratic
ticket, and should they attempt TO vote
any other they are cried down as an
irresponsible rabble to prevent which
from voting is one Of the highest and
most patriotic duties which a chivalric
Alabama Bourbon can show to his
State. 1t is the silliest Of falsehoods to
that the negroes II left to
would vote for the Demo
cratic ticket. They do not do so when
they are given a chance to make a
choice for themselves, and it is nou-
sense to suppose that the negroes OF
Alabama are different from negroes in
other States where they have a perfect
freedom of will. No doubt Democratic
paper edited by a negro receives liberal
support from the Bourbons, for we
know how literally some Of the Demo.
Gratis Of this city contributed to enable
the negro Harris to organize negro
Democratic clubs. The rebel Hudley's
letter 10 the New York Sun, together
with the extract from the negro editors
Democratic paper are alike, being a
tissue of lies and false representations
from beginning to end, and were only
published TO deceive the silly. The
Every Evening is amongst those caught.
