A few excellent Republicans, of great ability and worth,-some of whose names may be found in the foregoing list, are also in that assemblage; and to these, and to those who will faithfully and unswervingly cooperative with them, must we look for the final and complete salvation of America.

Black Republicans, banded together cheek by jole in a Black Congress, are the shameless advocates and enactors of Negro Bureau Bills, Negro Suffrage Bills, and numerous other bills of most abominable blackness and infamy. They are also the unblushing and despotic framers of military establishments in times of peace. The very least that can be truthfully said of them is, that they are a frenzied faction of rough-shod overriders of the Constitution. White Republicans, on the other hand, are the hearty supporters of such measures as have for their object the rightful recognition of nature's laws; and for this reason they are always careful to keep themselves placed in a position of uncompromising opposition to the base efforts of the Black Republicans, whose detestable and atrocious policy, if successfully carried out, would have a tendency to degrade the heaven-born and high-souled Caucasian down to the low level of the African. If, therefore, we are to be additionally disgraced in the United States by the continued existence, intrigues and wrangling of a Black Republican party, we should at once thoroughly organize (for the irretrievable discomfiture and prostration of these and all other negrophilists) a White Republican party. During many years past, much have we heard of Red Republicans in Paris, and also of Black Republicans in Boston. More things and better things than it was possible for us ever to hear of either or both of these, are we soon to hear of White Republicans in and throughout every State and Territory of the American Union.

Why is Massachusetts a greater State than South Carolina? Because, while Massachusetts is inhabited chiefly by industrious and enterprising white people, South Carolina is burdened by a large and lazy commonalty of mean-spirited and good-for-nothing blacks. Why is New York a greater State than Virginia? Because, while New York is white with Anglo-Saxons and Anglo-Americans, Virginia is black with Congo negroes and Guinea niggers. Why is Pennsylvania a greater State than North Carolina? Because, while Pennsylvania is blessed with a population of heaven-descended and heaven-destined Caucasians, North Carolina is cursed with a tenantry of hell-hatched and hell-doomed Ethiopians. How may Kentucky become as great a State as Ohio? By waiting until Nature shall have shown all the Kentucky Quashees and Dinahs the way into the Mammoth Cave, or into some other vast subterranean cavity, or into the whirlpools of the Mississippi, or into the labyrinthian wilderness of some foreign country, and then by being very particular not to show any of them the way out again, and by filling their places with a race of mankind, —a white race,-fit to live longer upon the earth.

Great States are made up only of white men, white women and white children; and nations generally are powerful and important only in proportion to their freedom from admixture with swarth-complexioned bipeds. Would we of the South, in emulation of the bright and noble examples set us by our White Republican brothers of the North, foster the development of great commonwealths, great cities, and great enterprises? To white emigrants, then, from every part of the known world, but more especially from the eastern and northern sections of our own country, must we open wide our entrance-gates and front-doors, and give to the new comers

warm and sincere salutations and welcome. In the first place, however, it behooves us to open at once, for the speedy and pell-mell exit of all the negroes, Indians, and bi-colored hybrids, every back-door in our land; and to assist them to retire, totally and forever, to some appropriate nook or corner, where, if, indeed, there be such a nook or corner in any part of the universe, their presence may not be generally and justly considered a most consummate and unmitigated nuisance.

Less than ten thousand miles from the place where these lines are penned, a lady and gentleman were recently wedded. Prior to their marriage, certain rules and regulations, by which they were to be more or less governed in all the future of their earthly existence, were well defined, understood, and agreed upon. Among these matters of mutual agreement was one that, under no circumstances whatever, was any negro, Indian, nor bi-colored hybrid, whether bond or free, old or young, male or female, ever to find either service or welcome within any house or other building, or upon any foot of land, or on or about any ship or other vessel or thing whatsoever, whether at sea or elsewhere, over which it might be their prerogative to exercise control. These rules and regulations, as adopted by the couple in question, have been, and will always continue to be, rigidly observed.

As a matter of high and sacred duty to their own supremely blessed race, not as an act of harsh dealing toward those upon whom Nature has been pleased to fasten the curse of foul and fatal blackness, every white man and every white woman in the world, whether married or unmarried, ought at once to subscribe to rules and regulations similar to those above mentioned, and to be always and undeviatingly governed by them. Under such

an efficacious and salutary White Republican policy as is thus faintly foreshadowed, we may soon look for the ignominious finale of Black Republican folly. Faithful adherence to the same policy will also soon rid us of the negroes themselves, and likewise of all the other base-colored, base-blooded and base-minded species of mankind, whose pernicious presence, in any place inhabited by white people, is a thousand times worse than a threefold pestilence.

Particular portions of the subsoils of America are known to possess special affinities for coal-black materials; and other portions for copper-colored substances. These respective subterranean localities are also remarkable for possessing certain attrahent and fossilizing properties, which, with a power far greater than that of the loadstone, manifest a nature-implanted destiny to attract and overclod all jet-black and killow-colored bipeds. Fossilization then-speedy and complete fossilization— is alike the doom of the negro, the Indian, and the bi-colored hybrid. If, in his great mercy and kindness, God wills it, let every one of these reprobate creatures be fossilized to-morrow-in which case, the delectable dawn of the millennium will be less than two days distant!

CHAPTER II.

BLACK; A THING OF UGLINESS, DISEASE, AND DEATH.

Black is the badge of hell, the hue of

Dungeons, and the scowl of night.-SHAKSPEARE.

If the world were intended for a house of mourning, every flower would be painted black; every bird would be a crow or a buzzard; the ocean would be one vast ink pot; a black veil would be drawn over the face of heaven, and an everlasting string of crape hung around the borders of creation.-Eclectic Magazine. July, 1863.

Of the negro race, it may fairly be said, that it is the one most likely to have had an independent origin: seeing that it is a type so peculiar in an inveterate black color, and so mean in development.- Vestiges of Creation, page 145.

To men of acute and well-balanced perceptive faculties, no fact in nature can be more obvious than that Black is a thing of universal ill-omen and detestation. Everywhere, also, is it plainly observable, that the displeasing and repulsive characteristics of blackness are affixed to faulty and effete things in general, and to the negroes in particular. These black persons and things (all of them, without any manner of exception) have been irrevocably foredoomed to utter destruction. Why is this? For the same reason that anything is as it is-simply because God himself, in his infinite wisdom and power and justice, has so decreed it.

Black, indeed, is a most hatable thing; and it is quite as natural and right, for white people at least, to hate black, as it is for the angels in heaven to abhor hideous Satan, or for bachelors on the earth to love pretty maids.

He who is the Creator and the Ruler, the Upholder and the Disposer, of the heavens and the earth and the seas, and of all the things that therein are—of every thing in the universe, both great and small-will be exact in requiring of us perfect fulfillment of all the conditions
