This is only a fair specimen of a number of other tommunications which we have on our table, but which a want of apace forbide our printing: s S Epiror Baxypr: Allow megu share a ; amsﬂgwap §q ”ur Q?t excellent paper, fbou,"{"iﬁ have Jonly read it through the kindness of an old Demoecaatic friend, sgainst whom [ bave often sinned, when he told me what the negro-loving republi- , cans.were abopt to do. Now sir, I come to my confessian—because practical demstrations lg)avé gaused me to say to my republigan reuére‘n, gtop, and see where you‘hove drif'tc,d to,s.‘m'l what ig our pres‘ent condition, Now, my republicasi brotho, Jg‘p,.gqcogding to your: ballot: and acts upoht izthe“‘Fiﬂéenth Amendment, believe . that the negro is the equal of the white man; and of course that he is entitled to rall the rights, social and’ political, of the white man. Now, apy.man of Saxon or Celtic descent, whether he be College President or Puritan Doctor of Divinity, or & pettifoging demagogue, who proclaims that the negrois his equal, or by cultivation or amalgamation, can he.made his équal, is simply a lanatic; this is a harsh word to use, but there iz no other one in the American Language =o suita_ble. The negro is known to have existed * with all hig physical peculiaritics precisely ‘aB he‘now is from the first ages of the

historic world, and always when living with Cw‘ucnsiaga: dffjslove. The records of F,gypt proye dhat Lo existed ns enrly as the days Gf‘mﬁhﬁﬁccord ing to “popular /¢hronology was nct far from 60 yoars of age when Noah died. No matter what he may be or what he, may have been called—whether slave, peon, servant ur:fqeedmuu,‘he'ie and ever has been simpl_J,v a slave~not: bécause he has been degraded from his original state, but because God Almighty made him so. To attempt to elevite the negro (o the white man’s level lis ‘an insult to manhood, ‘a crime against society, and a sin against God, Cultivation cannot produce whales from sharks, nor hemlocks from pines, or lions from skunks. The ordinances of the Almighty Creator cannot be revised or set aside by bis creatures. One inspired asks, **Can the Ethiopian change his skin?"— No, mor! his. nature cither, for God las marked hi_m'f’os‘ a ‘di_slinct'race, and has imposed the most awful penalties upon the union or ama_lgamatié’ﬁ of the two races. ‘The attempt to blend the two races in equality is simply the physical, mental, moral and’ political ruin of both. Bat sirs, if you, my republicanfriends, wish' to fry this abominable Fifteenth Auniendment experjment{any further at the expenge of the country, I propose that' this Congress purchase the most salubrious Gusno Islands, and let the man that sounded the ‘key note”’ for republicans at our conyention, at Indianapolis, and Sumner, W!lsdn, and many others, select _any number of hlack wenches, which so suits their }aste,‘ and take them (o this happy island and make the experiment to their hearts!content, dnd let the world have the benefit of the result.

: ' Scurrilous Artieles. ‘ Mt is,with much trepidation that [ attempt to .write on, the above subject. I feel my inability (o handle it with the force and skill which it demands. The country is flooded withnewspapers ; they are'to ‘be found everywhere ; they are ~ the_daily: compations of all.classes and all - ages, Everybody from grandfather down to litle Eddie and Minnie, read “‘the paper ;”’ yet, it 1s 4 rare thing to take up & paper withont ceting some seurrilous article, so low:that-it is unfit to be read by any one. ~ ‘But, says some editor, ready to attempt a defence, most newspapers are political — i They are for men. We don’t expect you ladies are going to read thoke articles.— " Whelher we read them ‘or not, one thing is gertain, the young people do read them. We are so constituted that - association with vularity in'any form, blunts the sensibilities, and especially is this true of the young, whose caracters are being formed. A Tittle in¢ident which illusirates this, occuered inany presence: not long ; since.— - S ome half dozen young’ givr‘lé, weére grouped aﬁout a 3 comlisnion who was reading -aloud to them from of our weckly papers. Merry peals of laughter interrupted ‘the reader. /Attracted by their merriment; I drew ' near. ' The article which amused Ay R Y gl L e el them 8o ,much, was a low, vulgar story, and should have called forth:blushes rather ‘than merriment ; yot they were modest, - prettily behaved young girls. ‘Said 1, gitls, ' 'm sorry to learn that your tastes are such that yoh 'are pleased with a story like that.. #tOh, that isn’tso very bad; not nearﬁfog*([’-foq#’ve ‘Been;. Why, I’ve seen . ‘wotde ohes in this very paper,” was the’ reply of the yming reader. . Thus we see LhM.mtlfxze;fr_‘eqpe,t perusal of like n;qclee had'it some mensure destroyed thav purity of tbon'g‘hgwh«ic!h i 3 essential to true refinement. [ know that one argument which publishers use in defense of their course in this respect, is that spicy articles, even if they are of a low character, suit-the majority of readers. Even if such be the fact, which I doubt, would it not be better to cultivate a more refined taste by publishing only articles. of a high, nbi'ﬁﬁéi#'ﬁ%n to pacder toa vitiated " taste? If the mewspapers would give to the Pﬂ%ﬂt‘mm‘l,@% instruotive ~ reading matter, the effect would very soon “be apparent, it(‘l-‘l do not think that publishers would lose by it pecuniarily.

- Grant is eulogized as the author of the Quaker policy towards Indians, which i the policy of extreme leniency -and maral saasion.

A Vermont paper msserts that a ligtle daughter of John Keenan, of Bennington, was recently carried down under the ice for about five rods, went overa seven foot dam, and passed through an underground raceway for adistance of fifteen rods to another dam, and was then rescued slive, but in a very exhausted condition. . e e e “Thank God, my constituents can’t read!” was the devout ejaculation of the Reverend Representative Whittemore, when the report of the committee, in his case, was laid before the House. : ot ol The asylunis of the South are crowded with crazy negroes.
