FUSION FIsHBoNEs.
1t is said that a Yankee once bought
machine designed to separate The
bones OF fish from the meat. He adj
justcd it to his table so that it would
convey the meat to his mouth and
carry the bones in an opposite direc-
ton. He set it in motion but 10 and
behold he had reversed the machine
and was soon as full OF bones as a
Populist is full Of figures.
SO the Fusion party has reversed

figures intended to be carried away,
only stick into its sides. Assertions
and arguments used against patriot
ism and progress only choke its own
candidates. Note FtShbone first

and complaint bounds back, and the
bones it would reject pierce its own
pretentions.
There are ten million colored.. citi

beneath the lash and by their blood
have enriched southern soil, and by
their Drawn have helped TO make this
country great. BY association with
Americans in their homes, and by the
study Of statesmen on the streets they
have learned something OF political
economy and patriotism. At Fort
Pillow and Fort Wagner, at Siboney
and San Juan they followed the flag,
and for four long wears. two hundred
thousand sons OF Ham fought on
