F VOL. XI. v r T * v? v H V >lWi afltHHV ^ | BILL ARP. ! s I A little Brrap from The N?w York World put me to thinking. A certain Kngtishnaan named Honaon lectured Sunday night in Philadelphia on eith'<s ai.ti naked IT it was right to accept charity from ill-gotten gain.- or from such men as Carnegie. ItodnVi'.er find ' Rhodes, who made th ?ir fortunes hy 1 monopolies and trusts and ? rushed out the small dealers. '1 he editor of The World answered, . "If i-hnrlly money is to he . . nunc I aud disinfected where shall tlv* process stop? Shall we boycott Kanuil hall, the cradle of liberty, because it was I hi,Ml fro'M the Pl'ofii-C liie loo! mnmv 1 of i'oter Faneuil'ss slaves? "The Jolly Bachelor :iml from his slav? lrndo anil ! selling heads and \\a* !: .1 nun to the Indians? These were tlx- bases of many Nf\v England fortunes ?.<nv liein^ used for generous purposes. Wp are inclined to say let charity have what it can get. The more sinful tltc channel through which fortunes have eoiuo the better it is that it should now be diverted to good uses. Junior said It ?us folly to let the uevil have all the good tunes. That Is poo 1 doctrine." "God sent it. but. the ilevil brought it." has good foundation, Gut 1 dident know that the cradle of American liberty was built w'ih money made in the cradle of American ;?layi rv. Appleton says that prior to ITTn New England had brought froth Africa over 1100,000 slaves and sold them further south, and for awhile they were in such demand that the negro traders in Massachusetts seized and soi l the young Indians who had strayed too far from their wigwams and they acta ally.-stole and carried away and sold the son of King Philip, an Indian chit f. who was at peace with the whites. But what, would not a people do who would burn or drown women as witches ea they -at Sa'.eru? My friend from Oregon seems anxious to handle my book and sell it, but inists that 1 shall make more proof that General Grant was a slave owner and hired them out until the surrender. I referred him to Grant's biography. written by General James Grant Wilson, who was chosen by Grant to write it. If his people will not believe him, neither would they believe if one rose from the deud. Tht trouble is that most of his people are eltnet foreigners or of foreign birth and don't know anything of American histoi/. The truth is our own people are profoundly ignorant of the history of their fathers and forefathers. Not one in hundred know that Georgia was the' tirst state that prohibited the African slave trade. Pennsylvania sold negro Slices at sheriffs sales as late as 1843. New England abolishes slavery long before but continued the importation I'rotn Africa on the sly until 18GI. Our people bought them because they wero profitable in the cotton llelds and in the culture of rice and sugar cane. For twenty years before the war our bes' people wished to abolish slavery, not as an act of humanity, but because they were increasing so fast and were in tin- way of poor white men anil were demoralizing to the sons of the ricli and their amalgamation with the whites was a visible curse In many families. And so Joseph Henry Lumpkin. our chief justice, began a correspondence with Henry Clay about bis s.-herpc of gradual emancipation. My father and many others eoopern.cd with Hie plan, but the malignant threats of the abilitionists ; mothered il in Its birth. Tin* other day 1 had ft social call from some northern gentle- j men and as the subject of the war incidentally came un a stdid veteran I happened to mention something aiwr.it Fremont and said he knew him very well, for ho was the first man he ever voted for and that lie served under him (hiring tho war. Well, said I. do you know where he was born? No. he did not?up north somewhere. "No." said I "Me was a Georgian?born in Savannah. educated in Charleston. His father was a Frenchman, his mother a Virginia lady. The boy was a tine scholar, but unruly and disobedient. Became a tutor in mathematics, was appointed lieutenant of engineers and with Nicolas Nlrolet made a topographical suro>y of Cherokee. Georgia, in lS.'tk. the iirst that ever was made. My northern friend was amazed. No. wo dent know very much until we get too old to make our knowledge useful. Fremont was a very remarkable man. As an explorer he never had an equal in this continent, not even Lewis and Clark, nor Kearney compassed half the territory nor endured half the perils that he did. When hi-? men died or deserted him he got more. When his Indian guides refused to go farther he went on without then), He was called the Pathfinder because he found new paths. Ho was too restless t<> wait for orders, but,. Hke Andrew Jackson. Ju?l went abend. Ho ascended the highest peak of the Rocky mountains, it is named Fremont's peak and is 15,500 feet high. He quarreled with Phil Kearney and Kearney had him arrested and scut to Washington, where he was tried and found guilty, but President Polk pardoned him. Soon after this numerous friends began to groom him as a candidate for president. lie accepted on tho abolition platform and was beaten. When our civil was came on lie was made a brigadier general ami put in charge of the Missouri territory One of his first acts was ro abolish slavery in that state. Thi3 made General Grant mad and everybody else who lived there and owned slaves, so he was reported to Mr. Lincoln, who annulled his proclamation and ord red FOR him tn Washington, lie was offered other commands, hut rt i'i- >1 th??n and retiied from active serve ul'.- ihe war lit* concluded to hull ' a . tiHroal from Toxarkaua in 1*1 Paso an.1 t the .-date of Texas to give hint a 'thorn I grant of land along .h? er.tiip rout" ci SCO miles.
