JoIiiisoh'h policy 1ms cnuscd mnny
good men North and South to uncon
ciotibly join tho reliuls. Tliey nou- cry
out persecution louder than genuine,
figlitiiig coiitcdorntrp, and they nrc
more to lio dtended tlinn rvpentnnt
traitors. Thcv now propono Leo for
t).:, t .... ti, ,,. . , .. ,
, re8"''t r ' I'ifHident; and foiii.
f of them are hold enough to propose to
run Lee nnd Grant on the same ticket,
, aud unhhiKhingly hid defiance in the
I same sentence to the loyal North alter
tliis style: " You nro going to take the
" white man's hotuu and laud mid give
" it to tho negro. lint woo
"to tho Radicals if they continue to
" persecute eight millions of a race of
"high-iiiiiided and proud people, who
''did not believe that aholitionUts
" wore fit to keen company with a de-
"cent negro."
General Lee is n truo exponent of
tho Democratic principles mid spirit ;
and if they should run him, it will only
show their truo colors. Rut Giant has
no affiliation with any such spirits or
principles; hence, wo must enter our
solemn protest against any such com
binations. Water nnd fire do not flour
ish together; neither can loyalty nnd
treason. Lee, running on tho same
tickot, would beat tho most popular
man in America. No leader in tho re
bellion will twer be allowed to hold
any office under tho Government which
ho fought to destroy. Any other gov
ernment on earth would lmvo founded
military courts all over tho South, nnd
long sinco hung or banished fiom tho
country all such men as I.ce, Davis &
Co.; but our Government has deter
mined, temporarily, to disfranchise nnd
render them incapable of holding office
for lifo. This is tho punishment which
will bo substituted for hanging. On
theso principles it is thought (with the
assistance of tho loyal negro votes),
tho rebel spirit will bo overpowered,
and a republican form of government
can bo established and maintained
without hanging any ono for treason.
It is an experiment, nnd wo hopo and
trust it will b'o a success. God grant
that there may bo no necessity to shed
any more blood, and that confiscation
may not bo necessary to subdue the
apparent defiant, rebel spirit. If Davis
is convicted, he will probably not bo
hung. His conviction is doubtful, not
withstanding every sensible man knows
ho is guilty. Ho will, in all human
probability, get a jury in iticiimoml
who sympathize witn roDois; who are
so debased as to disregard their oaths
and the charge of the court: if ho is
JL
not acquitted, somo wretch may hang
the jury. .Moral perjury is a small
crime to treason. There nro thousands
in and around Richmond who would
act tho part of perjured villains a thou
sand times to savo tho neck of Davis.
If tho South didn't wish to be abused
in northern papers, let them stop their
abuso of loyal men North and Souths
and except the natural results of the
war. Lot their citizens stop their false
accusations against a loyal Congress.
How do thoy know wo are going to
?.?Jl,'IatL.l.ni1 X9 .tho lands nnd
houses of rebels to the negroes ?" This
was proposed to last Congress, which
was intensely radical, yet it was voted
down by a large majority. The only.
ining that will produce confiscation is
the defiant spirit and impudenco of tho
Southern rebel or conservative leaders.
If they had accepted tho terms proposed
by Congress two yearn ago, there
would have been no hooto auii'mi
without their consent. If they will
accept, in good faith, tho terms now
proposed by Congress, no lands or
houses belonging to rebels will ever be
given to negroes. If tho terms now
proposed are rejected confiscation inny
follow; and in tho diversion tho ne
groes niny come in for their full share
of tho spoils. One thing is certain:
tho loyal North havo determined that
rebels shall tako " back seats," and tho
country shall be ruled by men who
have not borno nrms against tho best
government on earth.
Pusi-philanthropist defy tho North,
and claim in tho sentence they have
eight millions of high-minded nnd per
secuted citizens. If rebel journals
havo any truth in them, tho South
never had much over half this num
ber of high-minded nnti-abolitionists.
Nearly four millions of tho population
of tho South nro colored persons, nnd
there were only 6,147,222 whites in
tho whole Southern Confederacy in
1600. Tim Dimiocrntiu papers North
and tho Conservative papers South say
our colored population nro u low, de
graded, inferior race, unfit to vote.
Again : thero never wero much over
two-thirds of the whites South who
sanctioned tho rebellion; thoso who
did rebel didn't generally comphiin of
persecution. Tho loyal whites do not
complain of being peiseccted by radi
cals. Tho only class that claim they
aro persecuted is tho rebels and their
sympathizers. No colored person
claims ho is persecuted by radicals.
The truth is the radicals haw perse
cuted no one. Their whole efforts
havo been directed towards saving our
nationality; protecting tho loyal whites
and blacks, aud freeing tliu slaves.
Tins is the sum totnl of their offence.
It is truo that (comparatively speak
ing), tho colored race nro uneducated
and ignorant. They know enough to
iiudci stand that they have not been
persccutcu uy tno railicals. All nie
not uneducated. Thero aro now eight
newspapers in this country owned and
edited by colored persons; seven of
them nro weekly, with an average cir
culation of three thousand. Thoy aro
located in Rultiiuore, riiilndclphlu,
Now York, Brooklyn, Cineiniiatti and
San Francisco. Tho 7WAft in Now
Orleans is issued daily, and it has a
circulation of eighteen thousand copies.
Ueforo tho war they weio prohibited
from being educated. Now they aro
making greater exertions than tho
whites. Tho coloied ruco know tho
radicals fought to frco them, and that
tho rebels fought to keep them in bond-
ago. Thoy know tho rebels nnd their
sympathizers aro their persecutors, and
that tho radicals aro their truo friends.
A largo majority of them know enough
to vote for their friends nnd against
their persecutors. They know enough
to voto tho radical ticket and against
the Quasi rebel ticket, under the as
sumed names of Conservative and De
mocratic. Abput nine-tenths of their
race who havo voted, havo Joined the
republicans ; tho rebels nnd democrats
expect the balance to do llkowjso. This
is tho causo of the great hue and cry
of rebels and copperheads against " ne
gro suffrage." Thoy know and feel
their political power; nnd tho rebel,
dictatorial spirit will bo broken down
with the assistance- of the negro voto.
It may be profitable to mention a few
i
NO. 45
instances whoro theso proud nnd high
minded conservatives hnvo persecuted
tho loyal whites and negroes, since tho
bravo rebels who could " whip three
Yankees" have ceased to fight openly
for their supposed rights. Among the
most conspicuous is the shooting of tin
tinned colored persons in Texas; tho
Mobile and New Orleans riots, nnd tho
miming of churches nnd negro school
houses in Memphis, without cause nnd
without any provocation I
To show theso bravo conservatives
have not ceased their )emcoutons, Uyo
of recent dnto may be cited! John C.
Kefler, 'chairman o tho Republican
Stato committco of Alabamn, lived in
Pennsylvania before tho war, nnd tip
to the war, was n leading member of
tho Dcmocrntio party nnd no Abolition
ist. Uusiness having, sinco tho wnr.
called him to Alabama, when ho has
since resided, ho soon nnilrmtrwul
thnt modern Democracy, or tho brave
conservatives, was simply the agent
and apologist of slavery, nnd that tho
principles of tho Republican parly cgn
tallied the only truo remedies for the
restoration of tho Union. When tho
Reconstruction bill passed Congress,
ho entered the work of organizing tho
Republican pnity in Alabama.
Duriutr
the into campaign ho made speeches!
in nearly every county m tho Statu ,
in favor of a convention, and thetindy-
ing pneiples of freedom. Uo met al
most tho entire voting colored popula
tion of that State f.ico to face. Ho ox-
plained to them their now relations to'
tho (loverumeiit, uud tho necessity of
ndherjng to tho Republican party,
i-'or theso services, .Mr. Kefler encoun
tered the bitter hate of tho secessionist.
Ho has been repeatedly attuuked and
persecuted by their allies, tho ronser
nttves. Only n few weeks ngo, ho was
followed by an nrmed rulllan, nflerono
of his groat speeches, and idler a des
pernio struggle ho was shot in tho head,
tlio ball by almost n miracle gluneed
nnd only just grared tho bruin. Tho
ballled murderer is still nt largo un
punished. .Mr. Keller still lives to en
joy tho success of his labors. Tho Re
publicans carried Alabama for n con
vention by 1072 majority uud elected
all tho convention Repulicniis, ox
cept Mr. Howard of Crenshaw, and .Mr.
Dykes of Cherokee.
Tho caso ol Alexander Webb, n col
ored man, is still morn nggmvnUd.
GenernlHwaynn appointed him to act as
register under tho Reconstruction ucts
in ono of the districts of Alabama. Ho
was nn exemplary man, nnd had se
cured tho confidence of the community;
out when lie wns selected, n rulliiii
named Orrick, ono ol Mosby's mint:.
said he never would allow himself to ho
registered by n negro; so when the
day came, Orrick entered tho nflli-o of
legistralion, ami, approaching Webb,
with a smilo and a hourly welcome,
drew his pistol nnd (Irod threo balls,
which entered Webb'rt heait, pro-due-lug
instant death. Tho murder
er escaped and Is still nt largounpun
ished. Webb died n martyr to the
causo of his race, but his State will soon
form her now constitution, nhiili will
guarantee freedom ami eipial rights to
all, without regard to race or nolor.
Slavery is forever dead. With it must
die tho distinctions of color, tho prin
ciples of secession uud robel aristocracy.
Tho day is not far distant, when this
" high-minded and proud people" will
not bo ashnmed to desire tho nssocia
lion with those who nssisted to abolish
slavery, who thoy "onco thought unfit j
to keep company with tho most decent t0 " something wrong nbout their
negro." Reconstruction will go on, marriage, and suggested that thoy oo
Yankees will go south nnd demonstrate! copy sepurato chambers until tho facta
to this proud race, that thoy nro their! should bo investigated. Tho bride ro

tho Southern States will soon form fieot'ippointcd clergyman retired without

and when thoy do this, thoy will he'. ,.,, Tl,n..i. .. .'
welcome to their vacant seats, side by
side with tho loyal north. I a few .
telligent colored persons should bo
found among tho number, they will
persecute or disgrace no one. All thoy
can ever do, is to hold tho balance ofl
power in n closely contested voto be
tween the two great parties of tho
country. Then thov will bo found
guarding freedom and equal rights, and
protecting their race from persecu
tion and destruction.
A Legend er the Great stcnfei
(From Cassell'a Magazine.
There is a wild legend In connection
with tho Great Kastctn stenmship, tho
origin of which I do not know, but tho
shipwrights firmly believe in it. So
much has been written nbout tho con;
structlon of this famoui vessel thnt tho
slightest nlluslon to it hero will sufllcc.
She i9 a ship of two cases, or skins, an
they nro called ; that is, sho is almost
like one ship fitted Insldo of another.
Retweon the inner nnd tho otitcr skins
tho workmen can crawl for repairs.
Dreadfully dark and sepulchral, of
course, it is in thero ; for, from the na
ture of the space, tho workman must
I bo completely closed in, excepting at
the spot nt which ho enters. Very few
smiths or shipwrights would card to
work in hero alone, for two terrible
spectres nro supposed to haunt tho
place. Almost all tho men who wero
engaged in tho construction of tho ves
sel bellevo that, somewhere there in
the darkness and thick air Ho two skol
etons whiclicnn tiovVr lio'lotind'iill tho
vessel Is broken up. Theso nro tho re
mains of n smith nnd his riveter, tho
latter being a lad. During tho con
struction of tho vessel these two worked
nil through tho week, keeping full
tifne, nnd their work lay in between
tho skins. The smith was nn eldorly
man of n moody temper, who mndo no
friends, nnd was not popular with his
mates. Xo ono had seen htm leaving
work; nobody was interested nbout
him. Hut ono pay day both ho nnd
his lad failed to appear nl tho pay tn
bio to draw their money. They never
wero heard of any mora by nny ona
who worked on the Great Knsteni. Of
' 00irso their absence wni noticed by
tno timekeeper und other officials; but
tnu "i'lg men being, ns I have said,
""I'opnlnr with their comrades, thero
nan neon very little inquiry nbout
them until it was found that their money
wns not claimed. It was then soon
noticed thnt tho last tlino they had
been seen they wero nt work in tho
"caso" of thu ship, nnd before long It
becnino n fixed notion thnt by n fall,
or by the ell'ect of some vnpor, tho two
men hnd been killed, or stunned until
closed In, nnd nil tho host of men who
worked nt tint grtat ship beliovcd that
somewhere in the vnst hulk there lay
two skeletons which, for some reason
could never bo found ; thu prosalo Idea
thnt thu old fellow and his helper had
left without warning for a better Job,
finding, ol course, no favor.
Tiia.vui'kk ok Alaska. Tho lormul
transfer of Alaska was made on tho 18th
of October, with appropriate ceremo
