persist in thrusting their cloven feet
into every man's pocket, their filthy
slang into bis ears, and their virus in
to his veins. They hang like filthy
parasites on the body politic of the na
tion, or we might say, they are like
vultures only, that the one eats the
filth and otTal of tho earth and then
fliosaway in secret to digest it, while
the other taking in all the nauseating
debris, of sensuality, until every atom
is permeated with their morbid ve
nality, and then they turn their sluices
of iniquity upon society, to corrode if
possible tho very fountains of public
virtue. Their liberty of speech is un
traracled by law, and bounded only by
their inability to get lower. Thus
theirown words an 1 actions give the lie
in the strongest possible terms, tg their
assertion of oppression and tyranny.
They fear to compote with the negro
