Is THERE A SLAVERY PARTY


The Danville (Na.) Times wants to impress
upon the minds of the colored people sthat the
story frequently told them by designing Radi.
cal politicians, that there is Democratic mar.
ty trying to get into power and return them to
slavery, is an unmitigated and unblus hing
LEA lie without the least foundation. In the
first place there is no Democratic party: like
the old Wing psrty, it is deao, and its corpse
Is As cold and stiff as an iceberg" While we
are willing 10 grant that the old parties are
''laid out, The TACT cannot be disguised thar
there are numerous politicians North and
South, formerly identified with the Democratic
party, who still insist upon resurrectipg
slavery, the right of secession, and other dead
and buried questions, and are trying to gall
yanize them into living issues. Thus the OLD
Gard for August, an Intensely Southern
magazine, has labored article TO prove that
slavery Is The normal condition Of the negro"
and one to which he must return, and we find
in Congress and in the Maryland Convention
few politicians OF the old school who take
Substantially the same ground.

THE NEW JAIL.

1t has been stated that the Joint resolution Of
Congress directing the Secretary OF the Late.
rtor TO select site for new Jail is about TO be
carried into effect, and that the choice lies be.
tween site recon- uended by the Mayor
near the AImshouse. and one At the junction
Of New Jersey and Virginia avenues, the lat
ter having the preference. We sincerely trust
mat wherever else it may be located, the Sec
retaIy will not plant the Jail in a position so
utterly unfi: as that last named. The locality
is almost within a stones throw Of the Oap-
itoL and if such q nuisance were placed there
Congress would almost certainly order its re.
moyal 1t is not improbable that the Capito,
grounds may be extended 70 this very locality
In time, but whether this is the case or not, IT.
is manifesily most unfair to this growing
neighborhood, and which is soon destined
under favorable circumstances, to fill UP rap
idly with first-class houses, thus to blast all
its prospects. The great point aimed at in
gettirg the Jail removed rom its present site
was that it might be placed in some suburban
locality, where it would affect the inter-
ests OF the central portion of the city
less injuriously. The main recommends
ton urged in Der alt OF this locality is
that the Jail would thereby have the benefit Of
Carroll Spring. but this is an absurd plea in
Coed, TO call for planting it in the heart of the
city, and in close juxtapostiCn to the Capt.
tol. 1t might as well be recommended to place
it in as populous locality as G street, in the
rear OF the National Hotel, because there is
natural spring there. Fortunately, however,
the city is tolerably well supplied with drink
ing water, and it is not necessary that Jail
shsuld seek q spring, as if it were some oasis
In desert.
The other site proposed, near the almshouse,
seems we'll fitted for its purpose. 1t is imme.
diaiely north Of the aImshouse, and in the
same public reservation. There Is abundance
OF water there, and the drainage into the An
acostia is perfect. 1t is of convenient access
from the city, while at the same time its pres
ence would affect no business interests inju-
riously. There seems, too. to be manifest
propriety in placing kindred institutions OF
this character in the same loo ility. We are.
however, not at all committed to this Site
though we know of none that strikes us alto
eether so favorably; but we are sure we speak
tor the entire community in protesting against
the Jail being placed at the intersection Of New
Jersey and Virginia avenues, and in urging
that il be located in some suburban locality.

JUYENHE SUHRRAGE


The question Of suffrage to woman is not
only being agitated in the New York Consti-
tutionai Convention, but some friends OF
down-trodden youth are making jealous ad-
vocacy for extending the privilege OF voting
to young men, and fixing the legal age OF
voters at eighteen years 1t was argued in
favor of the step, that young men Of this age
are competent to exercise the most important
functions Of a citizen; that they bear arms
and be come husbands and fathers. Hswas
maintained that the impression of q fresh an
corrupted element into our elections. by al
lowing young men to vote between the ages o.
eighteen and twenty lone, as well as after,
would 60 far to purify the ballot-box. The
fact OF the Roman youth having been allowed
to vote at seventeen years, during the early
and better days of the Common wealth. was

however, was lost on div ision, thirty three
members voted IN favor, and eighty-two
