The Journal Gets Scared.

The Journal is alarmed. q This Negro
Suffrage organ, feareth its editor will be
deprived of his right to vote. Hear how
he begs the question:
An enterprising Democratic contemporary
is republishing the lectures in this State,
with the view of demonstrating to the peo-
pie of Ohio that the gorilla is dangerous
ana brutal creature, aud ought not to be al
toooed the right of suffrage There is class
OF politicians-bothR Republican and Demo-
cratie-who hold that everything is fair in
politics. But is it fair to spring this gorilla
question upon us at a time when we are
wholly unprepared for it? We respectfully
submit that it is not. Was it the Intention
of the Legislature, in proposing to strike
the word "white" from the Constitution,
to have the word gorilla inserted in the
blank? Certainly not; for that, it seems to
u.s.. might be construed as limiting the
right Of suffrage to the gori1las alone; and
surely! the legislature never intended any
such thingl
If the gorillas, as general rule, are to be
denied the right to vote, we trust the mill
tary man of the Journal will be the excep-
tion. His vote is needed in, Columbus: for
If his party friends enact few more
Metropolitan Police and Negro Suffrage
laws, there will not be enough Abolition
ism left to say "we."l The General voting
may enable it to do so.

The Death Sentence ON Fenians
-5-,rr 10 be Carried Ont. T1


L Earl DERBY, the Atlantic Cable telegram
says, has officially declared that the Fenian
BURKE will, surely have his sentence OF
death carried out. & + q
While it is possible the Cable dispatches
in this, as in many other instances, tell
that which is not true, still the fact that
Earl DERBY did make the statement is gen
orally credited. ,v.r-r,rDu
To carry out the sentence would be a
suicidal policy. The death of BURKE on
the scaffold, would make him a martyr,
and thousands there are, who would rush
to revenge his death by joining the Feni-
ans who otherwise would remain at home.
Besides this, the taking of his life would
show the alarm of the British Government,
and this would inspire those who seek to
redeem Ireland from English misrule.
The government of Ireland by England,
from the time of the Conquest to the pres
ent moment, has been that of an unnatural
tepmother-cruel, vindictive and unjust
and the more cruelty she exercises towards
her Fenian prisoners, the more attention
will be turned, to the fact, and the more
terrible the censure of the world will be
at the recital of the atrocities which go to
make up the debt which the Irish people
owe to their English rulers. zf

Lately the herds of some of the Western
States have developed fatal disease con-
\traeted from Texas cattle, and serious
losses have ensued therefrom. On this
subject writer in the Southern CdltiUdtor
offers the following observations:
notice that cattle scarcely ever take the
fever II let remain where they were raised,
and am fully convinced 1t Is generally
brought on by a change OF climate. For
instance, you take cattle from the noun
tain country to the low country, and they
will take the fever in a short time and die,
but their disease will hot affect the cattle
raised there; but, on the other hand, take
cattle raised In what we call distemper-
ed part of the country-that is, the low
country, from warm latitudes-up into a
cold one, they will themselves improve
7all the time : but, without being sick
themselves. they will spread the fever, and
kill the cattle in the section of the country
into which they are taken, till they travel
on, stay or have staid, long enough for the
fever to leave the system have been in
the habit of driving cattle from Florida to
Virginia, and found my cattle to improve
and do well; but after passed the line of
"a degrees they began to spread the fever
all along the line Of travel, among the
stock raised in that section of the country,
till struck the line OF Virginia, which is a
distance of about $50 miles-theh itceased,
and all went on well. 1 suppose the reason
for'its stopping was, that my cattle had
been out of the low country long enough
to become aeclimated. HeEce, think the
disease is originated from a change of cli-
mate, either from a colder to a warmer eli
mate, or taking them from warm climate
to more cool and healthy one. How is it
that they carry the disease with them and
give it to others without injury to them
selves, is a mystery am not able to solve,
andwill leave that to be discussed by the
Bureau of Investigation. .Hlns-L Z.

A Charleston, South Carolina, dispatch
says that an order of General SIcKLEs, is
sued on Saturday evening, in view of the
general good conduct of the colored popu-
lation, and trusting to the action of the
authorities for the recognition and enforce
tof their rights and privileges, directs
the release of the negroes in custody for
being concerned in the street-car riots,
except WILLIAM HUGHES and JOHN F.

resisting the police in the discharge of their
duties, who will be tried by military COM

Had these rioters been so unfortunate as
to have been born with white skin, they
would have been punished for that fact, if
not for the crime charged.
