As usual. the negro women were tho most
Objectionable OF the savage crowds. No one
could have believed that either sex was any,

them have grown up since the war. and most
were what they call educated.
It Is a sad fact that they are growing more
and more like their savage ancestors-sad for
them. but far moro sad for the white people
who are obliged to live among them: and it is

| Around her tramp the negro bands.
| Her throat is grasprh by murders hands
| And pains impress 10 on her brow.
| Her perl deep. tongue can toll;
| Oar few. brave men. with bated breath.

| Where violence and on rage meet
| Aud all tho evils are allied.

| You fastened on this sunny land
| Has outgrown all you hoped or planned.

| But we viii stamp the monster down,
| And DO in spite OF fear or frown.
