To aspiring politicians thus afflicted

STUB PEN LETTER.
THE EVERLASTING NEGRO.


The American Negro, in church
and State, is the most popular Great
ure in the United States. Wherever
the American whites assemble, in
Congress, In Legislatures, in Conven-
tions. in Conferences, in Associations,
in Synods, in prayer meetings, In
churches, in parlors, stores, market
places, travelling conveyances, by
land and water, they talk and write
pro and con, about the Negro. He
is popular among saints and sinners,
Jews and Gentlles.
1t is astonishing how long-from
162O-the Negro has been popular.
1t is not known how long he will
continue so. To him it hath oft been
said
"Avaunt let the earth hide thee. and quit
my sight,
Thy bones are marrowless, thy blood Is cold,
Thou hast no speculation in those eyes

THE ELECTIONS.

The result of the election in the
several States is not such as as is
calculated to gladden. the heart Of a
Republicsa. We have in our own
dear old State, though, such result
as should make every liberal man re.
loice. For, the ballot is free once
more in Virginia, and citizens will be
no more required to pay one dollar
as the price of their privilege to ex-
ercise their right to say who shall
be their rulers. Many of the North
ern States which have been Repub-
llcan for decades of years, have gone
Democratic. This is an off year, but
such result is too bad evanfor an
off year. 1t is supposed that the
next National House of Representa- :
tiyes will be Democratic. 1t has
been Democratic before but it did
not remain SO long. In Virginia, at
the present writing John S. Wise Esq.
is conceded to be elected Congress-
man at large and FIVE of the district
Con gressmen are conceded to the
Liberal party. The Constitutional
amendments, repeating the require
ment of the prepayment of the head
tax as qualification to vote have
been adopted by a large majority.

AN APPEAL 10 THE WHITE PEO>

AN dTThdL ~ III VII - ~
PIE OF THE SOUTH.
In behalf offive millions of colored
people we appeal to the white people
of the South for simple and pure
Justice. And in this is summed up a
concession on their part of all the
rights of man and especially those
conferred upon us by the constitu-
tlons of Virginia and OF the United
States. We ask for proper recog-
nltion of our civil and political rights.
No candid white person in the South
will deny that the colored people
have been denied their civil and po-
litlcal rights. For, are they not as a
class excluded from our juries, from
holding Office, aye, from teaching their
own children in the capacity OF pubn
lie free school teachers And as to
their political rights, volume would
not contain history of all the STRAIT
agems which have been resorted
to to deprive them of them.
We will not name them here. They
are familiar to every one who has ta-
ken any notice of the current history
of his country.
Goo, for some good and sufficient
reason, has cast our lots together in
this country. Neither of us can get
rid of the other If we would, and we
candldly do not believe we would If
we could, Notwithstanding the com.
plant that is made on both sides.
We are here together. This is our
common country. Both races are
proud OF and love his country and
neither will be driven from it. What
then are we to do? Why, simply lei
each other alone, so far as any hostile
feeling is concerned and cultivate Il
feeling of friendship and respect fo1
each other and each others rights
The white people of the South owe
the colored people debt of gratitude
which they will never be able to dis
charge. When they, the white peo'
pie went to war to rivet forever the
shackles OF slavery upon our limbs
they left their wives, children anG
aged fathers at home at the mercy o1
the people they would enslave. What
did these colored people do? If they
committed any outrage upon those
helpless ones we have yet to learn O
it INo, they quietly worked for theil
support, carefully and tenderly cared
for the young and aged; and the maj
white or colored, who had dared tx
90 tothe house of one these helpless
ones to commit outrage wonld no
have been permitted by the brav'
and faithful blacks to escape alive
These facts can be and are testified t.
| by hundreds and thousands of whit
people all ever the South.
| We are no longer slaves and th'
white people are no longer waglnt
war to keep us in slavery. Why thel
can we not live IN peace with eacl
other? Are not our interests tn
same? Are we not alike interested
in the prosperity of the South and Q
the whole Union? Why are we no
the best OF frlenos? Because bad mel
both white and colored, will not pei
nit US to be. We appeal to tn
white people to treat our people wit
that kind consideration due iron
the stronger to the weaker, Civ
: us our rights which belong to US
,, Give us fair and living wages for
fair days work. Treat our wome
with the respect due to their sea

A States Power to Regulate
FreightS Beyond its
Boundaries.

SPRINGFIELD, Ills, Sept. 29.-An
opinion was rendered by the Illinois
Supreme Court yesterday in a case in
vOlving the power of the State Legis-
lature to regulate rates charged by
railroads for points outside of Illinois,
and whether the act prohibiting unjust
discrimination in such rates is not in
contravention of the constitution of the
United States. The case is one where
in &c per cent. larger rate was charged
on haul from Gilman to New York
than on haul from Peoria to New
York, though the distance from Peoria
is greater by eighty-six miles. 1t was
held by the Court that the charge was
unjust, excessive, extortionate and un.
lawful, and in fact the court upholds
the authority of the railroad and ware.
house commissioners to regulate freight
charges from points in Illinois to points
outside of the State.

rOus of making investments in mining,

tendance of gentlemen from the North
ern States who will come for the pur.
pose of comforting face to face with the
citizens of our State, with the view of
making investments and seeking homes
in our midst. Every citizen in the
State, who has inducements to offer or
who wishes to encourage immigration
to, and development of the resources
of Tennessee, is invited to attend and
will be received as a delegate. Mont
Eagle has ample hotel accommodations,
and hall with seating. capacity for
500 persons. 1t is reached by the
Nashville, Chattanooga and St, Louis

convention.
Respectfully.

Commissioner.
