The REASON WHY NEGRO Sur
fRAGE is TO BE PAssED.-Mack,
the Washington correspondent Of
the Commercial, writes:
"Sumner says he has positive as
suranee Of votes enough to pass his
universal suffrage bill next winter.
lie says it must be passed before
the Presidential election, to- secure
the negro vote of Pennsylvania,
New York a'ld Connecticut; other
wise these States will go democrat.
ic.' .r...
SO, the reason why negro suf-
trage is to be forced upon the coun-
try, is to prevent eastern States
from going Democratic and to re-
tain the radical party in power.
This is frank confession, and
shows the motive of the radical lead
crs. 1t is not the NEGRO, but
themselves. they are trying to take
care Of Well, that is just what
we have been thinking for some
time. 1t is to keep power that they
may rob and tax the labor of tho
country. Stark County Democrat.

The Milwaukee Sentinel of yes
tcrday lets us know that, in the alb.
sence of Raymond, the New York
Times is edited by radical repub,

no possible objection to the follow.
ing editorial reflections on the Ten
nessee election, published in The
Times of Saturday:
The triumph of the Brownlow fac,
tion proves only the success with
which it has manipulated the regis
tration of vot ers. AS an indica-
tion of state feeling or policy it
amounts to nothing. Whena a man
in office possesses the power of dis
franchising his opponents his cleo
tion or re- election can be considered
only sign of thorough, unscrupu-
lous work-not of moral strength OF
personal or political popularity.
And when he outrages propriety by
appointing candidates as registers,
and so enabling them to adapt the
lists to their own convenience, the
fact of their election follows as reg.
ularly as night follows day. In.
deed, the Tennessee election was on
the whole, a meaningless formality.
With four fifths of the whites dis.
franchised, and with the rcgistra
tion altogether in the hands Of
Brownlow and his men, what signi-
fes the vote Of Thursday last

teers who preserved order, nor the
superior strength of the victors, mol
the peaceful disposition of the peo-
pie. TO United States troops be,
long the praise. Gen. Thomas act
ing under instructions from Gen
Grant was the great peace-make
of the day. His arrangements re
strained the i'll blood which exist
on both sides, and rendered orderl
what would otherwise have bee
scenes of violence and strife. Th

dispcnsable auxiliaries Of. an elcc-
tion in state supposed to be re-
constructed But so it is, and we
may as we'll recognize it frankly.
The election ordered by Napole-
on in France and the election now
going on in Mexico are precisely
parallel in all their circumstances
to the election held by Brownlow in
Tennessee. In all three instances
the result is prejudged, and the
whole proceeding an insulting mock
cry. Such elections are always
held in the name Of freedom, but
are distinguished in no manner from
any ordinary and direct usurpation
of despotic authority except by the
cowardice and poltroonery Of those
who conduct them.

AS it seems to be settled that the
Southern States will soon be repre-
sentcd in the Halls of Congress by
gentlemen of African descent, we
have taken pains to obtain some
particulars respecting the first mcm-
Der elect from South Carolina. We
commend this information to the
compiler Of the Dictionary of Com
gress. .~-........-.........
HON sAMBo STEVENS SUMNER.
My grandfather came from Guin-
ca, and my father was boss niger
on Gen. Ashmore's plantation in
South Carolina. On that place
was born, in cabin number twenty
four, near the. big. swamp. My
chief business when a boy, was to
black Massa's boots, but as / crew
up he put nae in the stable to take
care of his pet horses. l did not
have much education, but was one
Of the six boys ON the plantation
who used to hear the Massa S daugh.
ter read the Testament on Sunday
morning. l was the blackcst man
on the plantation, and great fa-
vorite with the girls. 1 never had
but one real lrard licking from the
overseer, and that was because I
smashed my daddy's mouth in
small row. [ was great at coon
hunting in my time, but after the
Rebellion commenced, coon became
scarce. After Massa Linkin's proc
lamation came ont, my Massa felt
so bad / couldn't bear to see him,
and so [ ran away. l went to Hill
ton Head, where after the war, I
didn't have anything to do in par
ticular, but attended a school kept
by Mrs. Chusetts, of New England.
l was pretty smart and in about
two years could say my letters clear
through. After that [ took an in
terest in politics, and began to corr
respond with big people in the
North, but Mrs. Chusetts and Other
friends did my writing for me then
as other kind friends do now. Be
fore the war, I hadn't any na1se
but that of Sambo, hut Mrs. Cha
sets thought | ought to have one,
and she called me Stephens Sumner.
I've been registered, and when I
went up to enjoy the privilege, there
was big crowd, and that rascal,
Gen Orr's body niger, stole a lot
of sweet apples out my pocket. H'he
election in our country was big
thing, and when they told me us,at
[ had been elected to Congress, T
was so .ticklcd that T yelled all the
forenoon like u wild cat. 7 shalt 90
to Washington just as soon as : can
get off, and I hope they Will rplacc
me on what they call the committees
on Foreign Affairs, whore 1 can
have Il good time eating fruits and
other good things from over the sea.
Like whites generally, have never
received a common school educa~
ton but [ am not a. commons
drnnkard, and when l take my seat
in Congress, | shall try and not
make beast Of myself, My first
vote will be for double MILEAGE
my second will be to have our pay
increased; and after that, according

DEAR PLAIN DEALER:
In accordance with my promise

count of my travels since | left you
The journey east was as dull as sucf
a journey could be. Even the inter.
esting subject of politics did not
augment the pleasure of the trip.
After my arrival in the east l con,
GUIDED to make my proposed trip
across in sailing vessel and not in
steamship. Accordingly I secured
passage in good sailing vessel, a
friend being the Captain of her, and
after trip of a little over three
weeks I find myself in the Old World.
We had favorable winds coming
across but rather a rough passage.
| We came the northern passage. One
day when not far from the grand
banks we saw an iceberg but it was
SO far to the leeward that there was
not enough danger to create an ex-
citement. After my arrival in Eng
land [ concluded to proceed at once
to Paris the Exposition being the
great attraction. So for the present
[ shall say nothing about England
but reserve everything until my re-
turn when shall observe things
more carefaHy and will try and write
you what l see worthy of note.

have been laying over' day for

my journey to-day and hope to arrive

There is great deal to interst
the traveller hcre-the break-water
is a grand work, it was begun by
Napoleon the first and finished by
Napoleon the third. 1t is three
miles long and sixty feet high two
thirds being under water, at each
end and in the middle there are strong
castles, and at intervals along the
top heavy guns are mounted. The
ends are connected with the fortifi-
cations on shore by other strong
forts built up in the bay. The bar-
Dor whi eh is now an excellent one
is entirely artificial; were it not for
the break water it would be an open
road-stcaa. Cherbuorg was fortified
to watch England and is generally
considered impregnable.

Cox WINGED BY "PKooE OF Holy
WRIr.-An old Dutch farmer had
handsome daughter named Minnie,
who recently joined the Methodist
church, against which the old far
mer was some what prejudived.
The young minister under whose in
strumentality Miss Minnie was con-
verted, visiting her frequently, ex-
cited his suspicion that all was not
right. Accordingly he visited the
church on Sunday night, and seated
himself, unobserved among the con-
gregation.
Soon after taking his seat, the
minister, who was preaching from
Daniel, 6ftH chapter and twenty
fifth verse, repeated in loud voice
the words ofhis text, "MENE, MEME,
TEKEL uruARsIN, upon which the
old farmer sprang to his feet, seized
the affrightcd girl by the arm, and
hurried her out of the meeting
house. Having reached the church
porch he gave vent to his feelings
in these words:
II knows dare was something's
wrong, and now 1 schwares to 'em."
''Why, father. what DO you
mean?" replied the bewildered and
innocent girl.
Didn't T." shouted the old man
striking his fists together, and stamp
ing with his foot, didn't I hear de
parson call out to you, Minnie,
Minnie, tickle de parson?' -
