NEGRO SUFFRAGE.--The vote in New York,
at the recent election, on the constitutional
amendment comforting upon the coored popu
lation equal rights of suffrage with white citi
zens is an emphatic refutation of the slander
that Republicans are in favor of "negro equal
ity." Said amendment was defeated by ma
jority of more than 1000, notwithstanding a
very light vote in the aggregate-a large pro-
portion Of the people having failed to vote at
all on that question.

platforms, the gist of which was that they
would have no platform but the Constitution
and the laws. All they wanted was the right
man. Hopkins, of Georgia, expressed the
rather extravagant opinion that Houston
was platform on which three millions of
people could stand. Their doctrine seems
to be to put forward candidate without en-
barrassing him or themselves with any prin-

platform, "the Union, the Consultation, and
sao enforcement or the laws.' This was
done IN great harmony and applause. They
esche~ed all platforms as having the effect
to mlsiead and cause political divisions by
encouraging geographical and sectional par.

There 10 a man in So. Louis who ought to
be the Democratic candidate for the Presi-

some OF the great Southern institutions. He
has taken that much abused book of Genesis
in hand, and has proved TO his entire salts
faction that the progenitor Of the negroes
was created before Adam. and at about the
same time as the cattle. He has also discov.
cred that it was this ancient negro and not
his satanic snakeship, who tempted tho wo-
man TO eat "the fruit of that forbidden tree.''
OF course il follows that he has been con.
demned to servitude ever since. Here now, il

ANOTHER DESTRUCTIgE FIRE In HANNIBAL
FoRTY.FIvE HOUSES BURNED.
100000 worth Of Property DE
ssrGyeG.

We are informed by Harry w. Brolaski,
Clerk Of the Warsaw, that last Wednesday
morning, about o'clock, FIRE broke out in
Hannibal, near the Market, and swept over
two entire blocks to the river. The Nesse,a-
ger printing Office, Richards banking house,
VIM. Shoots carpet store, VIM. r. Kerche-
Walls dry goods store, and fine new row Of
briek business houses, in all As houses, we're
burned. The loss is supposed to be about
Si0O, 200, which for place Of the size of
Hannibal, is enormous.
The lire commenced in carpenter shop.
No doubt 10 entertained OF its being the
work Of an incendiary.
The citizens yesterday went over to the
island opposite the depot, about 9 O'Clock,
and burnt up the infamous wharf boat that
used to lie OPP osite this city, and it was said
they we're going to burn house in or near
Hannibal. Some time ago some Of the citi-
gens washed out q house OF i'll fame in the
city, and it 10 supposed thereby aroused the
vengeance of that class, as since that time,
and within ten days, there have been four or
i've fires, ait apparently the work of incendi-
aries. First, Mr. Moss livery stable wa,
burned down; then thirteen houses then a
hemp factory and rope walk; and now this
fire. If we are correctly informed as to the
loss by this last FIRE, property must have been
destroyed in Hannibal, by incendiaries, with
in the last ten days, to the amount of nearly
half million of dollars.
Hannibal has had very bad class amongst
her, We are informed that the worst char.
acters travel on the boat between Hanniba
and Quincy, that arctic be found on the riv.
er, between here and st. Louis.
