Hr. Greeley's Mistake.
"I was iu the days of slavery, an ene
my of slavery, because I thought slavery
inconsistent with the rights, tho dignity,
the highest well-being of free labor.
Tint mi'nht have been a mistake.'"
Mr. Greeley's speech at Jeffcrsoniille,
hid., September 23, 1S72.
So Eaid Horace Greeley only a little
over one month siuco, when on his
electioneering tour through the States
of Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, and
Kentucky. Greeley once thought that
slavery was "inconsistent with the rights,
the dignity, the highest well-being of
free labor." For that reason he was the
eneniv of slavery, for that reason Mr.
Greeley opposed slavery, but now thinks
he was mistaken. This is an instance
of truckling rarely to be met wi'.h, not
; oan.liflafps for the minor offices
t VU tu
within the gift of the people. Scarcely
would a candidate for the most trifling
offica in any township in the United
States stoop to so low a process to secure
1m rnt of his town: vet Horace Gree-
iaw - if
lev candidate of the Lib-Rcp-Deuis,
for President of the United States, will
wollow in the dirtiest slime pit of so
r,;.rtr sppnip. the rorjukr vote. It
' will be remembered

Jcffersonville In

True to the life, "murder will out,"
there is no me of talking) the Pemo
tcralio party, and their allies tho Lib-
Rep's hate, nnd love to hate neurons.
True it is, that this strange alliance
does now affect to have great interest in
the welfare of the negro race in the
United States but it is as clear as sun
shine that this great interest lies in the
fact that the former slave, now wields
the power of the ballot, and niny to day
vote for or against his enemy nnd hater
as he may see fit withaut let or hinder
encc. Hut for this right he owes noth
ing to the Democratic party.
In Congress, out of Congress, in Coun
ty, district, State and national canvesses
Democratic organs and leaders opposed
this right to the negro, adhering tena
ciously to their old doctrine that in t'tiis
country, this land of freedom "th negro
has no right that a white man is boutid
to respect' so the party ouco from a
high place officially announced, and so
many of its leaders to day believe. The
amendments to our national constitution
securing to tho uegro, these rigets are
pronounced, "unconstitutional, insurrec
tionary, and revolutionary." Leading
spirits and teachers in their political Is
rael, still pronounce these amendments
"patches and frauds." The sentiments
expressed by the M'dfurd Ilern'd are
as wicked as they are unjust, an 1 might
perhaps Qud their counterpart iu the
Fiji Islands, or among tlie more Savage
Tribes of our Indian riorjulation. hat
kind of a heart must a man have withiu
him that cau utter approval ot murder
and the execution of the murderer, all
that '-the world will be happily rid tit
two niggers."
We can scarcely conceive ot one
less qualified for the high behests of
citizenship than tho nun who could gie
utteauee to the acutimeut exprossel i u
the above paragraph. ''Tin: Mn'oni
Herald" nnd its rradeis iu Pike conn y
may regard this effusion a- the seutiment
of a very rehue l uwl higu touts 1 uijr.ui-
ty; but no where else wiil it be so received.
There are Democrats in this State, iu
tho South, all over the United States,
aud their name is legion, who spurn
with conteuiDt the barbarous and mur
derous seutiments contained in the a-
bove quoted paragraph. Tho Saw abid

and nation irrespective of party it.clitiu-

heart. They are louging for a return to
the Sonth, to the South as it was, not to
the South as it is. They have no idea
of a negro only as a S!a7c.
To talk of the negro as a citizen of
the United States is to them the one
thing, the only thing repulsive and to be
abhored, and yet hundreds ot these very
men could not tell what is meant by be
iDg a citizen either as to duty, privilige, or
responsibility. A majority of the peo.
pie in the bottom of this Indiana "pock
et" were bitterly opposed to the encamp
menr of Indiana troops about their city
and arrogantly talked about neutrality
of territory in the days of rebellion.
Yet here in the bottom of the "pocket"
and to this people, Greeley says, "I was
n the days of slavery, au enemy ot sia
very, because I thought slavery incon
sistent with the ngnts, the dignity, tno
ill Imincr of free labor. That
minht have leen a mistake."
Now is it possible to conceive of a low.

when, where, aud at what time iu our
political history has any poitician, or
yen the merest Demagogue, East, West,
North, or South stooped so low for office
na this man Greeley?
Most assuredly is it true that Greeley
will do any thiug, say any thing, or be
any thing to be Presidont of ihe United
States.
Is it to wondered at that. Pennsylva
nia, Ohio, Indiana, Nebraska, and the
District of Columbia have administered
bo severe a rebuke as that given on the
