Col. Leonidas Metcslf. who. it will be
recollected. was challenged short time
since by rampant seeessionist To- mortal
combat, and sent him to "the undiscovered
country" lately made speech to the Un-
ion men of Carlisle, Nicholas county,
Kentucky. In which be paid his respects TO
the negro-lovers Of the secession Democrat
stripe. We commend the extract to that
sheet and those who read il. Says Col.

had started to pay my respects TO the
Niger lovers Of the South. There has
been no election since can remember but
the cry Of nigger was raised. A consta-
BILE. coroner, Judge or president could not
be nominated but the same old tune was
ground. Law after law was passed to
tighten the tenure By which we held them.
State laws. fugitive laws, territorial legis-
latures might legislate man to the devil
If they choose. il he had no Niger; but
laws were passed to prevent them from
legislating on the subject of niggers. A
Republican Congress passed laws to pre-
vent themselves from legislating on negroes
In the territories, still the cry was more Sc
curity. more concessions. until they require
all to knecl TO Gesler's cap, or else they
sre not the Simon Buckner pure. They

trader to the pious calling of catching and
chaining the wild African In the hold Of

the glory of God and the increase of his
kingdom; that their pursuits and pleasure
in Africa are loathsome to God; but when
they are transported to the cotton fields

great is his reward. for he now pleaseth
the Lord and shall have seat in heaven;
while the traitors who have SO long been
protected in making black angles, quietly
pocket the proceeds of the cotton: To all
this you must solemnly promise. or you
are an abolitionist. And some Of these
traitors are helping to populate Heaven
with angels only half black. This is no
joke; all this has been preached from the
pulpit by the said satellites. They do not
stop at insulting men. but blaspheme God
with their obsequious dallying and pander-
ing to set of corrupt. fy-blown jackass-
es, who cannot see any other aim or OBJ
ject on earth through which pleasure on
happiness can be secured but niger; no
other road to Heaven but on q nigger's
back. They must have the Missouri COM
promise or they will break up the govern
ment. Then the Missouri compromise
must be resealed. il amt fair. or they will
knock all the underpinnings from under
Uncle Samuel.


The cry of abolitionist is the whip that
is continually held up to scare the ignorant
into the Democratic, and now the seces-
sion ranks. If you look at things with
common sense. you are an. abolitionist.-
If you are for country and for the majority
ruling. you are an abolitionist. 1t is time
that we put stop to these insults. They
cannot listen to reason. The only thing
that you can beat common sense into them
with is green sycamore club that will
not bounce, or q bullet. A few whole
some truths may be bitter. but nevertheless
true. The accusation is very common
that the North favors smalgamation.-
Now. to tell the truth. and shame old
Nick, it is practised to fearful extent
throughout the South and Kentucky. Go
into any of our towns aAd see the different
shades and colors.

Mongrel, puppy. whelP, and hound.


But we will not speak loud on this
Somebody might be listening. You can
know every traitor in the land as plainly
as you can your hogs. BY the ear marks.
They have pass word By which you can
know them as well in the night ss in the
day -time-that word is "abolitionist.
That is the sum total Of all their argu-
ments.So
