Coming Back,

The New York EUeaing Post, in days long
gone by good democratic paper, but for
the past dozen years a disciple of black re-
publicanism, now answers rs follows II
charge that it is again seeking democratic
panionship
lit is true that we do not wish to make
the grant of the franchise, by the late in
surgent States to their emancipated slaves,
Il condition of their being allowed to re-
sumo their political relation in the union,
for these reasons: First,sstha the terms OF
suffrage are LETT by the constitution exclu-
sively in the control of the States secondly,
because before we grant the right to vote
to any new elements we require certain
probation: of natives, twenty years OF
age, of adult foreigners, five years resi-
dence and we ought to require some SINH
lar probation of the ignorant mass of late
slaves and thirdly, because 1t would seem
to us an intense meanness to impose upon
the Southern communities conditions which
our Northern communities refuse them
selves to accept.
"As to returning TO the Democratic party,
we have this to say: that unless wiser,
iustcr and more liberal counsels prevail at
Washington, there will soon be no Republi-
can party to hold to. If the Union, for
which we have spent SO much money and
poured out so much blood, be not fully re
stored before the close of the present ses-
sion of Congress, the people-whose in
1 stincts discern only grand general results
will sweep the party that has the power
out of sight. The Union, in all its length
and breadth, they will have, and political
| differences they viii adjust afterWard; and
such impracticable schemes as Summers
and Stevens's aud others will only succeed
in separating the dominant party from the
popular sympathy both South and North

In truth, if they who receive Che misera-

Treasury Department is continually flood
ing the country, would repudiate it alto
gcther, and take only the counterfeit, which
is mostly superior in engraving, paper and

wouldn't have the better currency. They
are both on the same standard of respecta-
bility and responsibility. .#.

The Jamaica RebeIs---What was
their Condition..

One of the military officers who, at the
head of his command, aided efficiently In
suppressing the laterebellion of the ',freed-
mem OF jamaica thus writes to the press
at Kingston from a alocality called somer-
set IrHni r.if
"This seems to have been the Tyre or
SidOn of rebelliOns. In Ross Island the
rebels lived in comfort Mount Lebanus in
ailluenee, but in Somerset it was downright
luxury; boarded houses, cedar tables and
chairs quantities, of beautiful glass and
china, carved mahogany bedsteads, &C.,
displayed an amount of comfort unknown
in England even, and when to this we add
the horses, mules, pigs poultry, and exten
sive provision grounds, it makes 1t all the
more remarkable that people like this
should rebel. know something of coffee.
and who ever wants TO see crop go to
Somerset and Mount Lebanus. We passed
through this beautiful spot, firing every
house in it exceptthree, and destroying the
crop of that man-eater, Arthur Welling-
ton, afterward shotby the SIXTH r.
This, then, may be taken, if the condition
of the blacks is truthfilly represented, as
conclusive proof that the civil war there,
bloody and terrible, was simply Var Of

First Installment Of n egro Suffrage

The House Of Representatives has passed
the bill, by a large majority forcing negro
suffrage upon the people of the District of
Columbia, in direct opposition to their
wishes as expressed at the ballot-box. The
Cincinnati EaQViter thus briefly and truth
fully disposes Of the outrage:
The first installment of negro equality is
assuming a practical shape. The House of
Representatives, by the vote of its large
Republican majority, has passed bill
thrusting negro Suffrage upon the District
of Columbia, the Capital of the Federal
system. 1t has done so against the unani-
nous vote OF the white residents of the
District who, at a formal election, to the
number of 1900, expressed their hostility
to it, and begged Congress not to impose it
upon them.
The House. however, did so, although all
the States in the Union with three or four
exceptions, from which the members come,
refuse it at home. The members vote to
impose on others what their own constitu-
ents reuse to submit to.
Well, we expected it. Before the. cleo
| ton last fall we were told that the Repub-
licans were not for negro suffrage, and
thousands of honest and well-meaning
voters acted with them upon this lamenta-
BILE assumption. They will now see theii
error. The aim and object of the party Is
steadily and rapidly to inaugurate negro
equality with the whites in all political,
civil and social rights. f
The negroes constitute a majority in the
