BLOOD WILL Tell. Wherever there
IS even the least Southern blood in
the veins of the people, as in
Delaware and Maryland, the radi-
calls are unsuccessful. The same
cause will eventually bring the North
ern people over to the Soythc crn side
of the negro question-that is, if the
Government is to last for any consi-
dcrable length of time ''Blood is
thicker than water" White men
will stand by white men. Fanaticism
rules the present hour. But the cleo
ton of a negro in Boston, where a
white laborer would be beaten out of
sight, indicates that even in Massa-
chusetts the day for change is not
far distant.

MASTERS OF THE SITUATIoN.-We
find this paragraph in the New York
Day Book:
"Amid all the efforts OF the politi-
cal quack doctors to compromise,
bridge over or cajole the Southern
States into yielding to the demands
of Congress, let them remember that
they are masters Of Tie situation. They
have only to stand still. Do nothing.
The mongrels are already coaxng,
begging them to yield; and the great
crowd of trimmers are perfectly
frantlc to have them do something.
But we say, stand still. Don't stir
an inch. You are masters of the
situation, if you did but know"

In some parts of the old free States,
the people do not have altogether so
pleasant a time of it with the freed
men as they were led to expect. For
instance, the other night, three ne
groes effected an entrance int6 the
house of Daniel Hammond, near
Smithheld, Jefferson County, Ohio,
while all the members of the family
were absent except two daughters,
and gratified their brutal passions by
repeatedly outrasing the persons of
the two young ladies. They entered
the house about 9 o'clock in the even
ing, and did not leave till near 4
O'Clock in the morning. One of the
young ladies is not expected to live.

Rev. Charles B. Smyth, Of New
York, the great pioneer Of clerical
reform, after paying visit to the
model artists, is preaching discourses
upon ''the naked truth, " in which he
gives glowing descriptions of the at
tire, postures and conversation of
dancing girls. His sermons draw, :"
and the congregation laugh and clap
their hands. Vanity of vainties,
saith the preacher
