The negroes of Georgia, in convention
assembled, resolved on Friday last that they
"heartiy approve OF every honorable effort
that Is being made to inaugurate move
ment whose object is the overthrow Of the
Bourbon Democracy" SAMDO is an imita'
tive ANIMAL lie hasn't any idea what q
Bourbon" is. but he has heard that that
epithet was freely used in Virginia last year
by the men who defeated the Democrats,
and so ne puts il into his Georgia platform.
The negroes OF Georgia have just as much
right to denounce the Democrats as "Bour-
bons" as have the Mahoneites of Virginia,
and we have no doubt they know as well
what they mean by the epithet as do their
allies i'm Virginia.
The Georgia negroes also adopted reso-
buttons demanding repeal or modification
OF the penitentiary system Of tle State and
larger appropriation for educational pur-
poses, and declare that poll-taX ought not
10 be made a prerequisite to voting.
From all of which it is evident that the
Georgia negroes have taken lesson from
the late Readiuster party of Virginia.
The daily dispatch. [volume] (Richmond [Va.]) 1850-1884, 1882-04-30

"Our army swore terribly in Flanders"
said My Uncle Toby. Our South Carolina
friends have emotional natures, and can
speak feelingly and eloquently when they
get to swearing at degenerate Carol;nians,
During one OF the recent trials the Attor-
ney-General of the State, Y0UNANs, openly
denounced the United States District At
torney. He said:
al speak the prayer Of South Carolina
when l say, Withered be the arm that
strikes her, cursed be the tongue that ma
ligns her, hated be the foe that invades her
but withered, thrice withered-cursed
thrice cursed-thrce hated be the son OF
hers, native and TO the manner born, who
would raise his slanderous tongue to de-
fame her or his matricidal arm to strike
her."
Whereat some OF our northern brethren,
who countenance iury-packing, are greatly
scandalized.
The reader can at least infer from that
language what the people OF South Caro-
lima think Of Judge BoND and his court.
