I Wish > hi thr -Suit (iv Kentucky.) |
October .10, 1 SO" I
I wuz Hitliu in the I'ost Oflis, day before j
yesterday, a cogitatin over the glorious re
sults uv the Ohio and Peunsylvauy election#, i
and hopin for an ekally good report from i
Noo York: thinkia the while that perhaps ef j
my hopes wuz realized, and such a Constoo- i
shnel Demokrntez Pendleton or Seymour'
shood be elected, I mite, in cmsidcrushen ;
uv my long and 1 beleeve valuable services. J
aspire to suthin higher, and better, and more •
profitable than a l'ost Oflis, siclt ez I am at j
present holdiu. Ido not complain, for the i
position has been the means uv establishen a j
credit upou wich I Uev lived tiius far com j
foitable, but yet 1 shood prefer a pi act where i
the salary wood be suftisheut to give me enuti j
so that 1 cood lay up suthin tor old age. Ihe j
time is not far off when mv indmduel ever j
tious will not supply my wants.
I felt good over the victory, and ii seemed ;
to me ez tho tve oglit to speak ez Kentucky j
:tus, to our brethren North, instructin uv em i
how to hold the States wich they iiez wen for j
us. When 1 decide upon a pint 1 alius act. j
and so it wuz this time.
I give notis. by Issaker Gavitt, that the j
Corners wood assemble at the toouu ut the!
horn, for the purpose ot sendtn forth the !
voice uv Kentucky to the Struts North. Ihe j
cveniu come, the horn was tooted from the
steps uv the church, and the entire Corners
woz there. Deekin Program woz in his reg
ler seat: Issaker Gavitt wtiz in his sainted
father's place, wich he/ gone bent*. Kernel
McPelter wuz ther. and also the others who
made up the male population uv the Corners,
and their wives. It wuz a glorious meetin,
and 1 wuz a rubbin my hands and feelin good
at the prospeck uv an improvin occasion,
when to my utter disgust, I saw the door open
and Joe. Bigler, who wuz born to he iny pest,
come in, with Pollock. and twenty-five nig
gers, oid and young, male and female, white,
yaller and black, and all uv em took seat.- in
the corner uv the church. 1 kuowed 1 y ihe
meek look uv the niggers, and the egg-streem
cuielood uv lligler hisself. thut suthin wuz
rp, wich would of course develop itself.
Bigler and Pollock generally develop
I opened the rneetiu by remarks that the
times wore an suspishus look. the power
uv the nigger in Amerikan politics lied bin
demonstrated. The nigger bed bin so man
ipulated in Ohio and Pennsylvany, tz to give
up these States, wich we cood hold ef we
choose. But the Dimocrisy uv Ohio and
Pennsylvany bed a work to do, which the;
cannot neglect with safety. They bed de
ciared the nigger inferior to the Caueasben.
wich he undeniably is, and they must keep
him so. The nigger must be kept jist eggs
ackly where he is, to serve as a irritant to De
mocrisy. Ohio gives the niggers uv that
State certain facilities for learnin to read and
write, accomplishments wich no laboriu class
wich is to be guided, controlled and worked
exeloosively by a sooperior class, needs or
hcz any biznis with. So soon ez a man begins
to read he begins to hev a iuquirin mind, and
begins to feel a dissatisfaction with his speer.
Let Ohio repeel there laws to wunst, that the
niggers may uot —
'•Reserve the arrangement." sed Joe Big
ler, riziu, ''and git to be the sooperior nv the
white. Is that it, Professor?"
"Not eggsackly that," returned I—not1 —not
kuowin what he wuz drivin at, "but ez Heviu
ordaiued the niggers to be inferior to us, and
serve us, it looks rather dangerous to us
to —"
"Give him a chance to rise? That's what
yoor gettin at. I see. I ant, and always wuz
a Democrat ez yoo knoo, but I don't shudder
from that cause —not any. I hev faith in the !
Lord, wich yoo appear to lack, wich is
(range, eonsiderin yoor professhttn. Ef my
colored friends here wuz ordained by the Al
mighty to alius okkepy an inferior position to
us, why they'll do it anyhow, onless,' indeed,
we degrade ourselves below ther level. Ef I
understand yoor idea, it is that the proud
Caucashutt is the only favored race, which
fixes its own poaisheu itsself, bat that all tin
other races hed places assigned them, which
Godal mighty hevin fixed they can't pass.
That bein the case, v.at's the yoose, Profes
ser, uvour fooliu away our time a tryin to
strengthen his laws by an act nv ours? Ei
the Almighty fixed it so. kin wc do it any
better than he?"
'•But spesnthe nigger, cf we don't keep
him down by law, shood rise above us?"
'I shood unanimously coucloode that there
lied bin a mistake in the figgers, and that we
wuz, after all, the sons uv Ham, and they the
-oits uv Japbeth. How wood you like that ?
But that aiu't wat ails us. There, Professor,
ain't where our dauger is. Dimocrisy, like a
man with a tapeworm, carries the elements
uv his own distrnckshen. Missegenasheti is
wat's sappin the foundushcu of the party, i
Agreein with jm ,hot thr. nigger's place i 3
fixed, and that the Dimocrisy coodent git
aloug a minit without the nigger, J here utter
my solemn warnin agin the continyooal les
-enin nvthe race, becoz that race is ourroc'r,
and onto that we stand- Wat sense is there
in wastin our capital, or rutber dilutin it?"
"Wat do you mean?" askt I, not gettin at
the drift uv wat he wuz drivin at.
"Mean! My nteauiu is plain. The blacker
the nigger is the farther be is below us—the
whiter he is the nearer our equal he is.
"In this calculation we don't take intelli
gence or virchoo, or anything uv the kind
into account, but perceed upou the hypothe
sis that a devilish mean white man is consid
erable better than a smart and honest nigger.
Iherefore, any drop uv white blood in a nig
ger s veins makes him just one drop less ob
jectionable. Look at the specimens which I
iiev brought with me to illustrate my pint.
The light colored niggers will rise."
And every cussed one uv em got up ez ef
by magic, and I saw to wunst what he wuz
goin for.
"Yoo see, Perfcsser, I hev here twenty
two spiled niggers. Every one uv them ought
to hev bin the son or daughter uv two pure
niggers, but they aint. This one's mother
for instance, and he laid his band upon the
shoulders uv a likely quadroon uv eighteen
years, "wnz wunst the property uv Deekin
J'ogram, wich circumstance accounts for her
hevin the I'ogram nose and general cast av
countenance to an alarmin degree, and "
Ther was a piercin shreak heard, and Mrs.
Pogram was carried out faintin, and the
Deekin turned ez red ez a lobster, while Big
ler. ez solemn ez & Judge, went on —
"This girl wnz onst the property uu Deekin ;
McGrath. who is, 1 notis, here to nite. Me
i lissy stand up," sed he, and a likely mulatto
woman ariz. "You will notis," sed he, that
Melissey is rather dark, while her girl wieh
you see afore yoo, is quite a half lighter.
The race bleached out considerable ou Dee
kin McGrath's place. 1 hev in my recollec
tions ten or fifteen more uv varum shades,
who hev the McGrath face; but—"
Mrs. Deekin McGrath, utterin a shreek uv j
rage, swung out of the church, while the Dee
kin to wunst assootned the color uv his fel
low Deekin, Pograra.
"I mite go 011, but wherefore? You all see
the pint. I can show you in this colleckshun
wieh 1 hev picked up, thepecoolyer feachers
. uv the Dingesses, the McPelters, the Bas
coras, and every family around these parts—
| that is. the feechers uv the male members uv
em. But sence the emancipation, 1 hev no
tist that this thing hez come to a sudden eu
din. [ hev notist that sence the niggers hev
; owned themselves* there aint no more uv this
mixter. Yoo purpose, I suppose, agin re
; doosin uv em to their normal condition' and
makin uvem men servants aud maid servauts.
Ef this is done, let me entreat yoo brethreu
to stop the bleacbin process. Ef yoo hev
any regard for the Dimocrasy don't tolerate
iit no more. The moment a half-white nig
ger is born, yoo can't enslave only half uv
i him,for only halfcomes under the cuss, atnTon
ly half under the laws agin niggers. The one
! half keeps down to the 11am level, but tothev
, half sores to the Japheth place iu nachor.
, Yen can't whale a mulatto with only half the
intensity yoo kin a clear-blooded nigger, aud
when they keep bleachin out, and out, until
they are almost white, what then? When anig
ger is nine-tenths Pogram and only one-tenth
nigger, what then? Kin thee Deekin be so
deaf to the voice of nacber—so bare uv im
pulse ez to oppress so muck Pogram for the
sake of gcttiu his foot on so little uigger? 1
can't believe it. Besides, when it's all ruu
out—when the uigger don't show at all—then
ivat is to prevent em from walkin off' alone
and settin up in bizuess for themselves ez
white men? Wat will become uv the Dimo
crasy then?
All this time the niggers wuz titterin, and
the white women wuz gaspiu for breath, and
the ineu wuz tumin red and white by turns,
i arose to reduke him, when Bigler remarkt
he guest enuff bed bin sed, and thus probably
the meeting had better be adjourned. And
the audacious cuss give us two minutes and a
half to get out uv the buildin.
I wood give my next quarter's salary ef
the yellow fever wood come to the Corners,
pervided I cood be ashoored that Bigler and
Pollock wood be victims.
