Republished After ~ Years.

In tremor nv ioy. The principal
biznis citizens Is again about the
streets clappin their hands and hollsr-
ing "Hsllelujier." The order of the
crate and good Hancock he's restored
oontidenz in the biznis nv our friends
and CONSERVATION In the breasts NV our
enimies, Juries, thank God, are NO
more polluted with nigRsrs onto 'em.
They are now drawd from the old
citizens, many nv witch served under
Borepard in the late onplessantress.
lBizness therefore goes on without de-
llsy. Ez a sample Nv how much biznis
IL facilitated, l may menshun that in
one court there wuz A cases in wich
niggers wuz plaintiffs, and As in wich
niggsrs wuz defendants. The tryin'
| nv all these cases okepied 8 hours and
10 minutes, the verdics in the A cases
being invariably fur the defends ts
and In the other As cases fur the plain
lifts. Nv the time spsciied, 2 hours
and % minutes wuz consumed BY the
nipgers in pawn costs. II IL singular
thing how wrong the niger allus IL.
In addishun 10 this boon the citizens

Ipot back their habis corpuses. Gineral
Hancock, with courage which can't
too highly commend, ashoored the peo-
pie that 50 long as he had power here
they should never agin be deprived nv
'em.
In Texas affairs are going on ez we'll

order fur holdin elections give general
sstisfacshun to our friends. The cleo
shuns are to 10 held only at county
seats, witch, OWN to the size nv the
counties, will probably prevent many
nv the niggers from attendin. Then
wher 3 Judge OF elecshun can't SIT, the
civil authorities appint another In his
stead, instead Of the military comman-
der, wioh our friends think Will give
us majority on the elecshun boards;
and, finally, that wioh pertickerlerly
binds Gineral Hancock to us is that
part nv his order wich prohibits the
military from bein at the polls. IL Is
eggstremely probable that the Etheo-
peans Nv Amerlkln descent Will De
