arms, that the carpet-baggers might
despoil the people and rob them Of
their lands and personal effects.
Grants administration did in addition
take all the arms from the whites and
put them in the hands of negroes to
enable the negroes to enslaye their for
mer masters. The negro lacked cour-
age, and hence the failure of the
Northern Radicals to enslaye the white
people of the South and their children
longer than the whites were able to
buy shotguns and pistols which were
found by every white man necessary
to defend the virtue of his wife and
daughters and preserve his own life.
The cupidity of the Northern gun
snith helped the poor whites in the
South to regain their freedom, which
never would have been accorded had
not the Northern bopdholder beheld
in the future another war for free suf-
frage and free speech more terrible
than the world ever beheld, in which
every dollar of the national debt would
have been wiped out.

never OtOned, received, or agreed 10 re
cetue any stock Of the Credit Mo6itter, or o
he linton Pacific Railroad, nor any divf
dends or PROFITS arising from either Of them
From Judge Poiands Report. FEB. is, 1874
-GdrJield's Testimony Pejured.
The facts in regard TO Mr.. Garfield, az
found by the committee, are that he
agreed with Mr.. Ames to take ten shares
OF Credit Mobilier stock, but did not pay
or the same. Mr.. Ames received the
eighty per cent, dividend in bonds and
seld them for ninety seven per cent, and
also received the sixty per cent. cash divl-
dend, which together with the price Of
the stock and interest. left balance ol
$50. This sum was paid over to Mr.. Gar
field by check on the Sergeant-at- Arms
and Mr.. Garfield then understood hi,
sum Wds the balance Of dividends after pdy-
ing for The stock.
From the Net0 York Times, Feb. 10. 1873,
Messrs. Kelley and Garfield present a
most distressing figure. Their partici-
patton in the Credit Mobilier affair IL com.
plicated by The most unfortunate contra
dictions OF testimony.
From the NeW York Times. FEB. ~, 1873.
The character Of the Credit Mobilier was
no secret.Thc source of It's profits was very
well known at the time Congressman
bought 1t. Though Oakes Ames may have
succeeded In concealing his own motive,
which was TO bribe Congressman, thor
acceptance OF the stock was not ON u at
account innocent. The dishonor OF the
act, as n participation in an obvious fraud
still remains.
Some OF them have INDUCED in testi-
mony with reference to the matter which
has been contradicted. The commit ee
distinctly rejects ue testimony Of several o
The members. This can only be done on The
ground that u is untrue. But untrue tesii.
nsony 0iuen under oath Is morally, U mol
legally, perjury.
1t is the clear duty of Congress TO visit
with punishment all who took Credit
Mobilier stock from Oakes Ames.
From he Ne,O York Tribune, Feb. 10, lS7;
James A. Garfield OF Ohio had lei
,hares; never paid "A dollar: received &3 %
which, after the Investigation began, he
was anxious 10 have considered AZ loan
from Mr.. Oakes Ames to himself
Well, the wickedness of all OF IL is that
these men betrayed the trust of the poo
pie, deceived their constituents, and by
evasions and falsehoods confessed the
transaction 10 be disgraceful.
From the NetO York Tribune, Feb. 20, 1873
Mr.. Ames establishes very clearly the
point that he was not alone in this offence
" he Is 10 be expelled for bribery, The men
WlI0 tOere 6ribed should 90 tOith him.

GARFIELD's $329 CoINoIDENT.-
That was a curious colncident in which
three of the gentlemen accused of be-
ing Credit MobilIer bribe-taking were
found to be claiming to be borrowers
of Oakes Ames the precise sum of 1920.
Garfield, Kelly, Logan and Colfax,
each claimed to have been loaned
$329. But none of them ever showed
when Or where they ever repaid cent
of it to Ames, and Ames never claimed
its repayment. On the contrary he
wore it was a dividend.

gro in his politics. This is the correct
position to take for men who were hon
est IN their convictions, but at the time
the Democ -acy took 1t, we knew they
would only stick to 1t SO long as it serv-
ed their selfish purpose, and that II the
opposite position would serve their pur-
pose better they would have no difficulty
In adopting the new w.-Republican, Aug.
4th.
Where is the consistency Of the Re-
publicans claiming free suffrage for the
negro when they deny to him the equal
right to vote as he pleases? Why should
he be killed for voting for Democrats
when the race are indebted to Demo
cratic States for the legal right 10 vote.
In Delaware we admit that the negro
has no status as q voter. Delaware law
makes no provision for q negro's vote;
and We doubt whether an officer could |
be legally convicted before jury in our |
State Courts for refusing to take ne
gro's vote. The constitution and the |
laws onfy recognize free, white, male
citizens as voters. A jury sworn 10 try
the case by the law and the evidence
would have to strain point to reconcile
his oath with verdict.
But if ii is all right to beat a negro
to death for voting the Democratic tick
ct why is it not right for voting the Re-
publican ticket. Or, is it not just as fair
hat the Democrats should drive the Re-
publican negroes from the polls as it is
that the Republicans shall drive the
Democratic negroes from the polls? Is
it not a fact that the negro is courted by
the Republicans aud made companion
of In their secret clubs aud hiding places
for his vote alone? Certainly ii is, and
they are merry over their black con
verts. The Democrats don't care about
the negro vote. But 1t may be set down
as a settled matter. Just as sure as the
negro Harris, or any other negro is
killed in this State for voting the Deuio-
cratic ticket hisislayers, if negroes, will
be made to stretch hemp. So that we
give the negroes fair warning not to be
misled by the Republican papers to get
themselves In trouble.
