Iu his Po.ston speech he said this: " He thought tho degradation of white men at the South could not bo overstated, and spoke of the educated higher classes as ruling the masses with a despotic hand. Had he known how degraded a portion of the people of this country were, it might have prevented his ever becoming u citizen. Men had sat iu the halls of state, nnd taken oaths year nfter year, w ho were false to them all the time! There were regiments at the South where nine hundred of the mill had to sign their iianiewith a cross. It is easy to make such people believe any thing, und by falsifying facts and practic ing upon iiieir ignorance, llie men who hail been traitors for thirty years had led them into this rebellion.''
