or the Ethiopian his skin? The
Ethiopian skin is today what it was
when Deucalion's flood swept over the
earth. When he can change his skin,
then he may change his nature also
And this he instinctvely knows; for
deep down i'm every negros heart is
the supremeSt desire 10 change his
skin by miscegenation or inter-mar-
riage with the white race.
Our Yankee friends. in that great
love and Christian charity. which so
much abounded in the North, especial
~ throughout New England until the
recent past, did all they could to aid
in this skin changing. They thought
to accomplish this by eleyating the
negro to power and authority over the
descendants of those mighty men who,
that they might govern themselves,
(for they scorned the government Of
even an ancient race of kings. dared
unknown seas, and feared not the
painless. primeVal forest, and its saw
age beasts and yet more savage
men,. If they feared not savage man
or beast, and if the tomy-hawk and
scalping-knife of the one and the tooth
and claw of the other affrighted not
even the wives of such men, did our
Northern brethren dream that the de-
scendants of these hardy pioneers
were SO degenerate, so lost To their
virtues as 10 stoop to the control of
and the mixing of blood with the
raped spawn of the African jungles?
If the effort or desire of the North
ern Radicals TO elevate by statute law
the negro above the white man of the
South originated in a malicious wish
(and so ii seems) on their part to hui
initiate TO the very dust the Southern
brother. after he had been overpoWer-
ed in battle. and to corrupt his blood,
then Northern vengeance was more
savage Titan that of Pagan Dane,
against heather Saxon or Saxon
against Celt, and another millennium
of years must pass before they can
claim place among civilized men.
If the New England Puritan would
not endure that the Indians should
cumber the ground, because in MS
heart he had resolved that the earth
and the fullness thereof is the heritage
of the saints, and that we are the
saints" and proceeded, as one has
said, ito fall upon their knees and
then on the Aboriginees, with the
war-cry that the only good Indians
is dead Indian. how could his super
latively righteous. advise descendants
imagine, even in the eXaltation of
their glorious wrath that the son of
i
of the saints, would yield his goodly
heritage to the African slave?
The attempt of the New England
Radicals, through Reconstruction leg
islation, TO force negro government,
social equality and final miscegenation
upon the South was the objectionable
sin-equallng in magnitude the
Biblical sin against the Holy Ghost 1t
was SHINING against the blood. These
committed high treason against the
purity of their race. They so greatly
offended thereby that thew shall have
no place in Walhalla; they may not
drink mead from the fair hands of
Brunhild. with the heroes of the race
out of the skull-cups of the enemies
of our ancestors, in the Halls of Odin
Fit only for the company of Loki,
they shall dwell in the hall of Hela.
