THE CARPET BAGGER.
And to-day, after three years of peace,
we find the 8QUt(icrn states crushed under
a rule of force—an alien rule—under con
ditions and meu they detest. That rule
is made with one purpose : it is to take
away from the white citizens of the south
all political power, and confer it upon the
enfranchised slave—and upon that meaner
thing, that thing the meanest that ever
crawled upon the footstool of God, that
thing which had no representative among
the crawling reptiles of the ancient world
which found a place in the Ark—that
thing which it was left lor the subsiding
slime of this war to produce—I mean the
carpet-bagger of the south
(The whole audience here burst into
deafening cheers of approbation at this
characterization.)

Gentlemen, in that one word he describ
ed the republican party. It is a revolu
tionary parly. In the spirit of revolution
it was born^in the spirit of revolution it
has its daily life. And it follows the in
exorable law of its being. Progress is the
law of revolutionary organizations, as of
everything else. The republican party
must go on. It never wearies, it never
stops Its leaders cannot stop it; if they
try they are overthrown, and others put in
their places. The spirit of revolution is
insatiable; it forever ories, give, give. If
to-day it accomplishes it objects, to-morrow
it demands a newer and deeper plunge
.So it has ever been, so it will ever bo.
You eanuot turn the needle from its at
traction from the north and have it point
south; the sun cannot be made to rise in
west and set in the cast; the stars, in
their mazy courses making the fabled mu
sic of the spheres, cannot come in colli
sion ; and neither can a revolutionary par
ty change the laws of its existence and
stop in its mad-enreer. It must go on and
on—till the flames it has lighted aro by
themselves extinguished. (Great ap
plause.) The Republican party must go
on and on If it attains its end to day by
means—it niU3t to morrow demand more
extravagant ends, to be attained by more
extravagant means And the feeling
which lies at the bottom of this constant
action is -FEAR. They cannot afford
to give up power 1 It is fear of an out

broken Constitution! It is the lear of
those who have destroyed liberty. It is
the fear which cannot rest. It is the fear
that compels thiit “murder will out.” It
is the blood spot upon the hand. It is
the fear that drove Macbeth to visit the

Protection.
A petition lias been sent here from
prominent and respectable citizens of
Florida, in which it is stated that “We
are in a terrible condition bore, and God
knows what may not happen at any mo
ment. The Legislature passed u bill
empowering the Governor to have a detec
tive and secret police body—to such an
extent as he deems lit—uncontrolled by
tiny one. With thjs potoer ho is enabled
to raise and arm us many negroes as ho
pleases, and front what lias transpired ho
has gone to work extensively.
“Hcsidus this, he is quietly through
agents, organizing the negro militia, who
tire drilling on the plantations privately,
and have orders to mount mules. Sic., and
hurry to town at a given signal The few
United States troops tie had have been
removed to Tamps, Jacksonville, and
Augustine, uud we are left helpless, with
a negro population counting four to one of
the whites.
“We ne.ver have been alarmists, but
really our condition is such that we feel
justified iu apprehending infinite danger
at any moment. Such creatures, united
and headed by very had white men, and
given to know that they are protected by
law, will not hesitate at, any rascality
You see wliat our condition is. Our
families are at their mercy. If we leave
them to concentrate so as to meet the
negroes, they may be sufferers before we
can come to their assistance. If we stay
to defend our households, we are to be
cut off’ in detail.
“Now, more titan at any other moment,
we need the presence of United States
troops, commanded by the right kind of
officers, and should have not less than 250
to 300 hero, where in twelve hours halt
the able-bodied negroes of the State could
be collected ”
The petitioners ask that the attention of
the President, Gen. Grant and Secretary
Schofield be called to this condition of
affairs, and such steps be taken as will
secure peace to the citizens of Florida.

t (uilincil Corpse calls lor it
Jllat Julep.
Piather a ludicrous event occurred on
Saturday last. It having been reported
that a certain geutlemiri had died, who
was to have been buried on Saturday
evening, quite a number of his old friends
and acquaintances repaired to his house,
to pay the last sad tribute of respect by
following his remains to the grave.
As the death had been sudden, the
Coroner had been summoned, and when
his dutieshad been performed the remains
were placed in an extemporized hearse,
and the procession formed.
Before moving, the hospitalities of the
deceased’s house wero extended to those
present, in the shape of a good, stiff bran
dy julep to each, so as the better to enable
them to undergo tbo fatigue of the long
march to the new burying ground.
While tlio pall bearers, who wore stand
ing by the hearse, wero slowly sipping
their juleps, and now and again giving
their goblets a slight shake to srttie the
ice in them, a noise was heard in the i
coffin, which turned some faces whiter
than they had been for years before.
FiuuHy. the undertaker for the occasion
mustered up courage to unscrew the oof
tin-lid, when, horrible to behold, up sat
the supposed corpse, and coolly asked for
his julep. Having quenohed bis thirst,
he got down, and stated to the gaping
crowd that he had been in a sort of a
truneo, and knew all that was going on
around him, but was unable to rouse him
self until his ears wore greeted with the
familiar jingle of the ice, and his nose
with the delicious smell of the brandy and ;
mint in the goblets round the hearse, the
thoughts called forth by which infused
new life into his system, and the desire to
partake became so stroug that he was able
to break the trance which had come near 1
consigning him to a premature crave.

in. H> Hill’s Advice to tbe Se
jrves.
Hon. lianjarnlu H. Hill delivered a
long speech al the City Hall in Augusta,
Georgia, ou Friday evening, 21st ult.
After discussing the reconstruction
measures in the usuul line of argument,
lie talked for a long time to the negroes,
in the course of his remarks saying:
‘Tt is my duty to warn you to-night
that if you turn a deaf ear to what I
have spoken to you ; if you will be de
ceived ; if you will hate tiie white peo
ple : if you youi’selves will provoke a
war of races—1 warn you that deslruc
tion is in store for you. When such a
war comes, if unhappily it should, the
whites, North and South, will unite
against you. I see letters from the
North almost every day, saying let the
Contest come; wo will light it out.
Oil, my colored friends, that a voice
from heaven could tell you that the
best friends you have ou earth are these
Southern people—these people who
have been raised with you. It is
strango to me that you can he made to
believe anything else. The radicals
have tried the white poople and failed
with them ; and now they nrw failing
with the colored people. 1 have
studied the history of your race for
four thousand years. During your
slavery you enjoyed more advantages
and happiness than any of your race
elsewhere, If you want to preserve
your advantages and happiness iu free
dom, you must preserve your kindly
and natural relations with the white
peoplo. You are now as free us I am ;
but do not let the future historian say
that as soou as you got your freedom
you began to deteriorate. Preserve
your characters, improve your lace, be
honest and just, and freedom will prove
a blessing to you. If you turn your
hack on your friends, ou men who
made this country, what will be your
fate? We want peace—wo intend to
iiave peace—it is to our interest to liuVe
peace; but if you will wugo war, if you
will follow strangers, it you will hate
our peoplo at the instigation of carpet
baggers, wo lie unto you. These are
words that should strike deep into
your hearts, as I utter them—woo.!
woe! unto you will he the words from
all parts of the world. These are not
threats, my colored friends: they are
words of counsel, and warning, and
wisdom to you. 1 do not know what
is to become of the country. There
never were so many whites and blacks
assembled together in one government,
ns freemen, before. Whether it will
stand or fail I do not know. Philoso
phers say that it cannot, stand. I won’t
dispute with them, Well, what then?
Do you expect white peoplo to quit it?
Do you expect them to follow the car
not-liHO'droi'H in tlx* >
of intelligent people? That they won't
do. Never I Jt'you would prosper and
ho happy, then you must come to us ; j
come together; it is your interest to
come. Wo understand this question
better than you do—we know our
rights, and we know yours.'1

Anotliei* Terrible lieielatlon.

ference to Confederate prisoners de

narrative made to us several years ago. j
upon the most unquestionable uuthori- :
tv. It is to this effect, that the com- |
tuander of one oftlie large transports j
employed by the Coverinient of the
United sitates proceeded, nuclei'instruc
tion, Fort McAllister, to transfer some i
nine hundred Confederate oUieets and
soldiers to Hilton head ; that upon tak-;
ing tliem on hoard there were not any
two of the number whom lie could not
have carried in his arms, iiko infants, j
suclt was their wasted and miserable
condition; that upon inquiry he was!
informed that they had been fed on i
nothing, for mouths, hut hall'a pint of
raw corn and a small allowance of
water; that the commandant at the!
Fort said such wore his orders. The
lirst Colonel in command, who received
these orders, informed Stanton that he
could not comply, and another was
substituted for him. The humane oili- j
cor at once provided them touts and
necessary food, and did his best to ,
make them as comfortable ns possible,
hut many died on the passage. Oh
arriving at Hilton Head and delivering
up his charge, he was told, to his amaze
ment, that the commander at that fort
had the same orders in regard to
supplying the prisoners with food ; but
stated that if either of them had the
means of purchasing better fare it
eight be done; and a Colonel act' the
party drew for live thousand dollars on
New York, and by this means their
sufferings were alleviated. Tnis Colo
nel told our informant afterwards that
he had thus furnished$12,0:K), and every
cent of it, he knew, would be repaid.
This statement has never, to our
knowledge, appeared in print before;
but the present occasion is a suitable
one to produce it. It can easily he
verified, if disputed. We had leave to
make it known; but wc thought it
would be of no avail in the condition
better opportunity is now ottered, and
wo think the people ought to know by
whoso orders it was that the Con
federate prisoners were kept on half a
pint of raw com and a pint of water a
day.
RadU-al Stupidity.
The late Georgia ejection of negroes
from tho roeonstreted Georgia Legislature
has now its explanation. When the bogus
constitution was under discussion, it was >
proposed to insert therein the following as
a part of the article on franchise^ '•Sec
tion 10. All qualified electors, and none
others, shall be eligible to any office in
this State unless disqualified by (he con
stitution of this State or by the Constitu
tion of this United States”. This was not;
agreed to—nays 126, yeas 12—overy ne
gro in the bogus convention but two
voting a^e. When the enlightened freed
man had time voted away his eligibility .
to office affirmatively, he proceeded to do
the same in a negative manner, every
single negro in the whole body voting for
the X1 tli article of the Vogue constitution,
which article declares ‘'the code or Geor
gia” and ail laws passed '-since the 19th
day of Juuurrr, 1861," of full force, save
as to slaves. This code and these laws, of
course, deny tho right to hold office to free
persons of color. Singularly enough, wlien
the poor, stupid negroes had thus vote I in
favor of their intelligibility, Congress was
stupid enough in turn to confirm the sur
render. declaring the instrument contain
ing it entirely republican in form aud alto
gether so satisfactory that tha Statu was j
immediately admitted to representation |
thereunder. It is bard to say whether j
Cuffee or the Congress has tho thicker
skull.—World.

BULL’S
WORM DESTROYER.
i -
in my IfiHrd and World
wide Readers.
I have received many testimonials from
professional and medical men, as iny alma
nacs and various publications have shown,
all of which are genuine. The following let
ter from a highly educated and popular phy
sician in Georgia, is certainly one of the most
sensible communications l have ever received.
Dr. Clement knoiys exactly what he speaks
of, and his testimony deserves to be written
in letters of gold. Hear what the Doctor
says of BULL’S WORM DESTROYER;
Vill 'now, Walker County, Ga ,
June 29, 1860, /
Dr. Jonx Bull—Dear Sir: 1 have recent- j
ly given your “Whrm Destroyer” Several
trials, and find if wonderfully efficacious. It'
has not failed in a single instance to have the
wished-for effect. I am doing a pretty large
country practice, and have daily use for some !
article of the kind. I am free to confess that !
1 know of no remedy recommended by the j
ablest authors that is so certain and speedy j
in its effects. Ou the contrary they are un- :
certeaiu in the extreme. My object in writ- ;
ing you is to find upon what terms 1 can get ;
the medicine direc tly from yon. If I can get !
it upon easy terms, I shall use a great deal of !
it. i mu aware that Hh» use ot such articles
is contrary to the teachings and practice of a
great majority of the regular line of M. P.’s,
but I sec uoju-d cause or good sense in dis
carding a remedy which we know to lieelll
Vient, simply because we may be ignorant of
its combination. For my part, I shall make
it a rule to use. all and any means to alleviate
suffering humanity which 1 may be able to
command—not*hesitating because Romo one
more ingenious than m\ -elf may have learne 1
its effects first, and secure l the solo right to
secure that knowledge. However, l am by
no means an advocate or supporter of the
thousands of worthless nostrums that flood
tiie country, that purport to cure all manner
id* disease to which human flesh is heir.
Please reply soon, and inform mo of your
best terms. 1 am. sir, most respectfully,
JULIUS P. CLEMENT, M. D.

The proprietor of this celebrated medicin j
justly claims for it a superiority over all
remedies tutored to Lhe public for the *
safe, certain, speed;,-, and permanent euro ofl
Ague and Fever, or Thills and Fever, whether |
of short or long standing. He refers to the i
entire Western and South-western country
to bear him testimony to the truth of the as- \
senion, that in no cast* whatever will it fail !
to cure, if the directions are strictly followed '
and carried out. In a great many cases a ■
single dose has been sufficient for a cigp, and j
whole families have been cured by a single j
bottle. With a perfect restoration of the gen
eral health. U is, however, prudent, and in
every vase more certain to cure, if its use is j
continued in smaller doses for a week or two
after the disease has been checked, more es
pecially in difficult and long-standing cases. I
Usually, this medicine will not require an)’
aid to keep the bowels in good order; should
the patient, however, require a cathartic
medicine, after having taken three or four j
doses of the Tonic, a single dost* of HULL S j
VEGETAULC FAMILY PILLS will bo suffi- i
cient.

Having had indubitable dvidened of its
prompt and certain effect* from the testiino-^
ny of a multitude of respectable citizens,
among whom arc classed some of our best
physicians, we do not hesitate to recommend
cli is Preparation in all cases of Fever and
Ague and Thills and Fever; indeed, from the
facts in our possession of its intrinsic value,
it would not be too much for us to state that
when the directions are strictly complied
with, we warrant a cure in every case where
it is tried. It is pleasant to the taste, and
the cheapest medicine in the w orld. There
fore, in truth, it may be declared the day is
not far distant when it must be appreciated
and used in every household where Fever and
Ague or Chills and Fever is found to exist.
The wonderful operation of the Texas Ton
ic Syrup in neutralizing the effects ot mala
rious poison in the human system, euu only
explain its extraordinary agency in the
speedy, thorough and permanent cure of
('hills! and Fever or Fever and Ague, and all
their kindred diseases, in whatever form of
Bilious Complaints they may make their ap
pearance.
As its name imports, it is a Tonic of rare
and medicinal virtues, composed of pure and
harmless ingredients, and are so united as to
form a compound alike skillful in art, beau
tiful in appearance, and can be taken with
safety to the most delicate constitutions. It
i? the re nit of a lifetime of experience and
practice in a Southern climate, and was nev
er know n to fail, even w hero all othe reme
dies had beep tried in vain.
Those who are unacquainted with the ex
traordinary properties of this home produc
tion, manufactured from Boots and Plants
indigenous to the soil of our “%unny South,”
(and hence adapted to the cure of Southern
climatic diseases) are respectfully referred
to the certificates of respectable citizens
whose names are embraced in a pamphlet
which accompanies each bottle: also the en
dorsement.s of the press in all the Southern
States, indicating the many thousand cures
already performed by our justly celebrated
Texas Tonic Syrup.
The reports from hundreds of Druggists,
Merchants and Dealers, from all parts of the
country, are uniform in stating the medicine
is sale, certain and reliable, as a substitute
for Quinine and the poisonous compounds
heretofore generally sold, and is rapidly
supplanting everything of this class.
As a home enterprise it especially com
mends itself to the people of this section of
the country, who are now struggling in an
effort to do away with old prejudices in favor
of foreign produce, and may we not hope
foreign “Quack Nostrums,” the proprietors
of which, in most cases, arc governed by no- I
thing but mercenary motives, know nothing
of the properties of Medicinal Agents, and
care nothing for our interests, except to en- <
tice our people into the use of their vile
mixtures.
The Texas Tonic Syrup is packed in cases
of t wo dozen.

liny other remedy affords.
