BEAD!-The Chicago
Eaening 'Post, a fair specimen of thc
Grant and Colfax press, thus de?
scribes an Irishman :
"Ho has hair on his teeth. Ho
never know an hour in civilized, soci?
ety. Ho never stepped on anything
more solid than a dirt floor all his
life, until ho stood on the deok of an
emigrant ship. He is a born savage
as brutal a ruffian as an untamed
Indian of tho North American tribes.
Of coarse, he can't read. He can't
-write. Ail books to him. are sealed.
He only believes in the priest; and
the priest is only a little less a barba?
rian than he. "Be Jasus, I'm a Dem
rnecrat," is his shibboleth. Break?
ing-heads for ' opinion's sake is his
practice. The . porn criminal and
pauper of the civilized world, and, |
withal, the innocent victim of the,
state-craft of England and of the]
priest-oraf fc of Homo-a wronged,
abased and pitiful spectacle of a man
oapable of better things pushed
straight to hell by that abomination
against common-sense called the
Catholic religion, and that outrage
apon political decency falsely known
as American Democraoy-what else
does he know? To oompare him
with aa intelligent freedman would
be an insult to tho latter."
Aud yet there are some Irishmen
base eaough to support the infamous
party of which the Evening Post is
one of the orgaus. They are few,
indeed, but they will be remembered.
They are a disgrace to the laud that |
gave them hirth, and deserve all 'the
denunciation which is heaped apon
them by their indignant countrymen.
Ninety-nine-hundredths of tho Iriab
of America are zealous supporters of
Seymour and Blair, and this accounts |
for the foul-mouth abuse of tho Even?
ing Post and its coadjutors.
The Chicago Tribune contains a
communication, with reference to the
above, from an Irish Presbyterian,
who says:
"Such articles as that which ap?
peared in the Post will do moro to
convert honest Republicans and to
place them in tho ranks of tho De?
mocracy than all tho speeches that
could be delivered. I, for one,
intended to support the Republican
tioket nt the coming election. As an
Irishman, I cannot allow my coun?
trymen io be slandered and hold
myself aloof. Henceforth, I shall bo
found in the conservative ranks-an
advocate of toleration, which my re?
ligion teaches, and a supporter of
Irish manhood abroad, and of Irish
right to national independence
the Irish soil."
ACCIDENT TO THE KINO OF ITALY.
King Victor Emmanuel recenly had a
narrow escape from death whilst fol?
lowing a chevreuil in a mountain
pass. Suddenly tho king found his
progress impeded by a mass of rook
which appeared impassable. Unde?
terred by its formidable aspect,
Victor Emmanuel put his foot on it,
but tho snow" with which it was
covered, rested on a m..ss of ice,
which his weight gradually displaoed.
A shepherd a few yards below him,
perceiving the sportsman's imminent
danger, scrambled np the rock, aud
caught him by the back of his shoot?
ing coat, aud thas saved his life
from certain destruction. His Ma?
jesty took off his hat to the poor!
shepherd, and on the spot banded
him 1,000 Bcudi. He has einco then
settled a pension on him for life.
A young lady, near Hampton, Vir?
ginia, was held by one negro aud
outraged by another, on Thursday
last. Th? miscreants ara confined ia
the military prison. Judgo Lynch
will be forcea to open his court, as
these outrages are bocomiag frequent
throughout the country.
SOUND ADVICE TO NEG KO VOTERS.
?en'eral J. B. Gordon, of Georgia,
?n a recent speeoh at Charleston,
thus addressed the negro voters pre?
sent:
In the few words I shall say to
you, my friends, if you will listen to
me, I hope to deni with you candidly
and honestly. The radicals havo
told you that the Southern people
wero your enemies; but, believe me,
this is not co. I was opposed to
your freedom. [Laughter.] Wo
were all opposed to your freedom.
Now, that's honest, isn't it? ["Yes;
that's so," from tho crowd.] And
why was this so? I'll tell you. Wo
did not do this because we were
your enemies, but because wo had
bought you ?nd paid our money for
you. [Great laughter*] You be?
longed to the Northern people once,
and some people think you belong to
them now, in the Loyal League. It
was the Northern States that sent to
the shores of Africa and captured
and brought your fnthers to the
North; and, when your labor be?
came unprofitable, they sold you to
the Southern people. The carpet?
baggers will tell you that the North
brought on the war to free you. Lot
me ask why didn't they fri o you
when they owned you? You might
then have been born free, and might
now bavo owned the forty acres
which the lying Tasc?is promised
you. I say that they did not wage
tho war to free you, and no honest
soldier who participated in it will
say so. The idea never was enter?
tained. General Grant himself at
ono time threatened to quit the ser?
vice if you wero freed. Thoy set
you free because they wanted to uso
you-not from any love they boro
you. And now they tell you that we
are your enemies. Havo wo not
been born on the same soil? Aro
not our interests identical? Have
we not grown up together, and havo
not our fathers been buried under
tho same sod? Why then, are we
your enemies?
You have been told to arm your?
selves against the whites. J Cries of
''No.no. "J Well, I am glad to hear
it. What would bo the result of ar?
raying tho two races? A contest will
come which will bo a war of races;
then, which race must triumph?
You are in the majority, on the sea?
board, and could destroy many peo?
ple. But, my friends, lot me tell you
the moment the war of race* is inau?
gurated, that moment the death war?
rant of tho black man, on this conti?
nent, is signed. There are 3.000.0?C
of your race and 40,000,000 of white
men. Now, I ask you, in all reasoD,
what raco must go down?
The speaker then alluded to the as
Bertion of Helper, who said that be
foro tho year 1872 no black man wil;
have a habitation on this continent.
lu quoting this, tho speaker said:
Ho says so because of speculation,
Lands aro scarce in tho North, thej
have a surplus of labor, and they de
siro to blot out your race, in ordei
that they might come hero, take pos
session of tho pince and cultivate th<
land. The Indian onco lived when
you now live, but whero is ho now'
Ho couldn't live in peaco with th<
white men, and he went to war. Th?
few scattering mounds that aro lei
in the State speak the result. Now
this ia what Helper says must bi
your fate, and, most singular to re
lato, a largo majority of tho radien
members of Congress are subscriben
to his book and are giving it circula
tion.
Now, I speak plainly. If you an
disposed to livo in peaco with th<
white people, they extend to you thi
hand of friendship. But if you at
tempt to inaugurate a war of races
you will be exterminated. Tho Saxoi
race was never created by Almight;
God to be ruled by tho African
These aro truths. Wo want peao
with you. Wo cannot livo a3 enc
mies. Ono or tho other must g
down. If you turu a deaf ear to th
Southern mon, these green leaves tho
now clotho tho forest will not groi
red with another autumn before the
will be drenched with your blood an
mine.
Whon you hear a radical tullun
I about the people of tho South wantin
to renew the war, just ask him wha
I Gen. Grant meant when he wrot
! this to tho President:
"I am satisfied that the mass' <
thinking men of the South accet.
the present situation of affairs 1
good faith. The questions whio
havo heretofore divided tho sent
monts of tba people of the two se?
tiona-slavery and State rights, c
the right of States to seoede from tl
TTni<vn-they 7?g??? aa having bee
settled forever-by the highest tribi
nal-arms-that man can resort to.
_ SPECIAL^NOTICES.^
BITTERS.?THIS HUMAN STO?
MACH Bcciria to require a tonio stimulant.
From timo, whereof tho memory of man
runneth not to the contrary, tonic bitters
havo been used. Formerly, men made
their own bitters, and few thought of eat?
ing breakfast without first taking their
"tansy." Thoso were days, however,
when prohibitory lawBwero unknown, and,
in consequence, liquors wero pure. Deal?
ers could then afford to ho honest and eoll
nothing but tho unadulterated; Now,
however, what with Government ifcax and
court flues, poko-berry juico and alcohol
must pase mustor for "old ryo" and "puro
Bourbon." People havo como to fear
poisoning moro than malarial diseases,
and dropped thoir "tansy." Bight hore is
where HOSTETTER & SMITH, of Pitts?
burgh, havo proven benefactors. Years
ago, they commenced tho manufacturo ol
HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS,
laying it down as a rulo (that has Bince
been conscientiously followed) to uso no?
thing but the purest liquor?, manufac?
tured expressly for them. By strict adhe?
rence to thiB rulo, they havo won public
confidence and reaped their reward in s
large, profitable and steady business,
Their BITTERS is known all over thc
country. Thoy aro tho pioneers of thc
business, and havo tho largest manufac?
tory in tho world. Nor has success, in
their case, (as in too many instances,
rondered them careless; their BITTERS

THE WEEKLY GLEANER-Devoted to
tho rehabilitation of tho South in its former

Tho annals of tho American Republic
show no political campaign comparable in
th? magnitude of its issues and tho mo?
mentousness of its results to that for the
Presidency, now pending. Indeed, tho
very life of freo government is on trial,
and it will bo a sad commentary on tho
capacity of tho peoplo for tho exerciso of
that high trust if they, thc jurors who aro
to try tho issue, prononnco a verdict of
self-condomuation. If tho South has any
hope it is in the BUCCCSS of tho Democratic
party In tho coming Presidential election;
and every citizen ia vitally interested in
tho progress of tho battle, and cannot
afford to be without a sound and reliable
newspaper.
AB an organ, not only of sound Demo?

an organ to disabuso tho Northern mind
of tho falsehoods in relation to Southern

industrious vocation of certain parties to
poison the springH of Northern feeling on
Southern subjects. In this View of thc
