During the celebration Monday
Hon. 0. II. Scott in his speech , re
marked "that the colorca people of
this country , since the government
gave them their freedom , had not
shown themselves men , " tlmt , aa n
class they were indolent ; that they
were not a productive people , but
were shiftless nnd lazy , and unless
they changed their course they would
find themselves worse off than they
were before they were made free , Ho
charged them Finally with
selling their votes at every election ,
from 50 cents to § 2. To the latter
declaration n big darkoy preacher , Mr.
Rickets , from Omaha , took exceptions.
Ho said that aa n clasa the negroes in
; his country had moro brains than the
whites , lie did not know whether
the colored people over hero sold their
% otcs or not , nor did ho care , so long
aa they put n good price upon thorn
Ho declared that they should ask
enough to enable them in a few years
io purchase a piece of land for thonv
solves. As for the charges pro
ferrcd by Mr. Scott , ho
claimed that that gentleman waa
untair. That ho could not have given
much attention to the nffuira of this
country. Christophor'Columbua , who
discovered America , might have de
scended from the African rnco nnd
been just aa good n man for nil that.
