RADICAL SPEECH-MAKING.
AA'e cannot rn these days of warm
political excitement pick up nn ex
change without seeing something of
Brownlow. Fowler. Fletcher, or some
body else having made a speech some-;
where : and that which is the jpqst rr
marlrtiMe; is. that hf the meetings.
North, in Which ns much vulgarity nnd
m JUtle, honesty,a» po|sSi]£, is prac
ticed, all the big joins arc Southern j
men. First of oil. if the work is right
dirty, comes bull dog Brownlow bath
ing and winning for negro suffrage and
the disfranchisement of the whole
South, as though he was born in the
north-east corner of Maine. Second
on the lists is big Jack Hamilton, of
Texas, who thinks the Southern States
ought to be kept opt and treated as
conquered provinces. Stokes is a sort
of bottle holder for these two worthies. |
while a host of little gad fly hangers on '
attend: laugh when they laugh and
erv when they cry. Now in all this,,
therein Something at" which the mind
revolts, when wc remember that those'
dktsolutioniets, tliesc men who are do-1
ing all they can to injure and im tilt the
Bohtb arc Southern men, and owe to
to Hie South all of gratitude and honor
that a son shonld give liis mother. Sik

there is any less discord and enmity on

Tie. The negro lias been a distiiid I
race for more than four thousand
years : and he lias always been a savage
or a slave. During tllnf long period,
his race has produced no individual ,
who has been remarkable tor anything
loft behind film as a memento of bis,
rapacity or intellectual power. The !
negro lias accomplished no great: work,
save as a slave. The race lias never.
been known to improve in any of the
arts or Science's, when left free. It has
always been savage. It has never been
fco civilized or christianized in any ago
or country, as under tie1 mild rule of,
the American iifarte':-. The negro me- ,
ehanies of the Month yroie never equal
ed by those of any free negro race yet
discovered. Hint when the guiding
hrain of the white man is withdrawn,,
(ill their labor, energy and enterprise
dwindle to the supply of the rudest
wants of nature.
History teaches us that some of the
greatest revolutions . in commercial,!
social and national life were brought!
about suddenly, and by agencies not
before discovered for, known,not to so
great extent. The cotton culture in
tho Southern States, and the gold mine*
of California, illustrate our meaning.
Their destruction would injure millions
of people, and set back the progress of
civilization many years. Among" the
great agent,.- of civilization, the ninmt
thetme ofeotton goods ranks next to
tiie management of steam and electrici
ty. The Southern States produced Hie.
ra w material in greater abundance, and
of r better1 quality, than Any portion
of the globe ; and it serves to clothe
more people titan any other fabric.
Hence, the demand for it may he -aid

a Miss Kate Jhivis, and the alleged
provocation leading to tlm cruel act
being the refusal of the child to sav her
p ravers.
From the evidence elicited at the in
quest on the body of the child, it u?p
pears that on the night in question the
mother had beaten the child with a
rawhide for nearly an hour, apd when
rendered insensible by pain and loss of
blood, thrust it hito a chair ami went
to lied. For awhile the child was
heard to moan as jl’ in intense agony,
hut soon became quiet and nothing
in,ore was heard until near morning,
when a servant, entering the room,
found the child defid, nhd immediately
gave the alarm.
i pon lifting tlio child from the floor,
where it had fallen, a most revolting
sight was lircsente.h The head, fact
and shoulders were sewed and (lfrcol

that a few rlurs previous: to the total
