LOAN AssocIATIoNs-A NEw AND IMPORTANT
FEATURE IN THE FuTuRE OF WiLMINGToN.-The
great increase in the number and pecuniary
amount of Loan Associations within few months
in the city is indicative Of steady and stable pro-
grcss in the true elements of prosperity. As yet,
so quiet have been their operations that they are
only imperfectly understood by those not imme-
diately interested in them.
Their foundation is the principle so generally
conceded that every man should own his home
stead, or the house in which he lives, and that
this can be better accomplished by association
than by individual efforts. For example, COM
pany of one hundred men, each paying ten dol
lars monthly into general fund, will be able to
loan during term Of about ten years an average
amount, including interest and premiums, of
about $1,000. each month to its members fol the
purchase of houses, and will return TO each of
them at the end Of about ten years two thousand
dollars Us the result OF their monthly investment.
A judiqtpus use of the fund borrowed will enable
them 10 live in their own houses, at cost, in
Guiding their monthly payments on stocks and
interest, of little oyer the ordinary rent of the
same description Of house, and at the termination
of the association, the house will be their own

On Saturday next the Democrats OF
this county, according to the rules OF
the party, will be called upon to nom
mate, by ballot, candidates for the
several county offices. Wehope there
will be a general turnout Of the old
"Unlon- Savers" and that they will
nominate the very best men for the
respective Offices. 1t would be well
Tor tho Return Judges to be prompt
lin making their returns on Tuesday
following. 1t nearly always occurs,
that one or two detain the whole Con-
vention for half a day. This should
be avoided in the future; let all be at
the Court House an hour before the
time, rather than an hour after.

The ANDERsoNvILLE PRISONERS. -
the Washington IntelligcHccr, which
was always war paper, thus alludes
TO the charge of the Jacobin press,
that jefferson Davis was responsible
for the i'll treatment of our prisoners
at Andersonville. 1t says:
"lt was not Jefferson Davis that
starved Union prisoners but the
Government Of Abraham Lincoln
Davis did the best he could for them
in the exhausted condition Of his
country, and warned their government
over and over again that they were
suffering and il could not be helped.
He pleaded for an exchange of the
sick, which he even offered TO send
home without any return Of Southern
prisoners, but all appeals fell lifeless
upon the cold ears Of hoartloss Gov
crnment. IL refused TO come to the
relief of its own suffering and dying
soldiers, and preferred they should re-
main in prison and help cat out the
substance Of the South. These are
facts, unanswerable, damning facts,
and they will rise up in Judgment
against the revilers ofthe South, sooner
or later"

DEAD. - Hon. James NJ. Wayne,
one Of the Judges Of the United States
Supreme Court, died at Washington,
on the 5th instant, in the eighty-sec-
ond year of his age. He was appoint
ed in 1885, by President Jackson.
His death will cause no vacancy, as
the Bumpers have put both the Union
and the Supreme Court on a line of
extinction, by reducing tho number
Of Judges, so as to bring them more
fully under Radical control. The old
and educated Judges viii, in a few
years, be removed by death, and un-
der the new law, the recent appointecs
under Lincoln-who are boreft of both
law and reason-will soon constitute
a majority; after which the Supreme
Court will be run wholly in the inter
est of Black Republicanism, and will
have no more respect for the rights Of
white men than Hollis Bureau of
Military Justice"

Stevens & Co., for the purpose Of ef-

This is no new freak, because Long

ticed what he preached, but the latter
preached one thing and practiced an
other Much as tho Black Republi-
cans have abused and reviled General
Lee, Jefferson Davis, and other load

An INFAMOUS MENAcE.-All loyal
dom seems to be specially engaged
just now for q final overthrow of
Constitutional Liberty in this country
The following grand moral ideal We
have noticed in a number Of black
journals, and clip it from our neigh
boris columns to show how much dis
respect against two branches of the
government can be crouched in a small
space. Hear him:
"When the Attorney General seeks
to give his construction of the law, the
force of the law itself, he is guilty
both Of an impertinence and a crime.
The only law-making power in this
country is Congress, and whatever
the President or the Supreme Court
may say TO the contrary, the will of
Congress ought to stand, and will be
made stand"
The reader will observe that the
Executive and Judicial Departments
Of the Government are to bo swallow
ed up by that miserable fragment ola
Rump Congress. Such doctrines must
be driven from American shores, or
our boasted freedom will soon end in
Dcspotism. How remarkable that
those who have beloved the loudcst
for "freodom, free speech, and a free
press" should be the first to invite us
10 feast of Military Despotism. The
work of knaves, truly.

posed, and threatened TO kill her if
she did not yield TO his boastly passions,
She, however, escaped his grasp and
ran, whilo he pursued. lie picked up
a stono and threw il at her, hitting
her on the side, evidently intending to
knock her down with IT, She iinally

ism is to that portion of the Globe just
what Black Republicanism is to the
late United States an element of
strife and discord. Radicalismis with
out bounds; its leaders and teachers
will jump from extreme Liberty to ex.
treme Despotism, and are as unfit to
control States as his birthstone majesty
would be to run Sunday School. The

Thad. Stevens 4 Co. opened their
crusade against the Union again on
the Bird instant A quorum Of the
Rumpors have resumed their unholy
work, and arenow dovising the means

Tho first act of the Bumpers was to
exclude the Democratic members from
Kentucky, and one from Connecticut.
All members of Congress who fail TO
endorse the reconstruction iniamy Of
Thad. Stevens & Co. are pronounced
disloyal, and hindcred in every ina
ginable way from taking their seats.
The Democrats will yet find it ne
cessary to proceed in army style and
accompany their members to Wash
ington, and furnish them with their
seats. One trip would settle the mat
ter About the time ten thousand
Democrats would enter tho front door
of the Capitol, Thad. Stevens a Co.
would leave by the back window, as
they did at Harrisburg in 1888, when
they treated elections as though they
had not been held, and inaugurated
the "Bucl1 Shot" war Whenever q
goodly number feel willing 10 dis
charge their duty TO their country
and themselves bya trip OF this kind,
. and let us know, we will accompany
them to a "ninety day" festival. We
do not intend to ask others TO go, or
hunt a substitute, like thousands Of
those Of the ~oyal" persuasion did
during "the war for tho Union" as
we intend to practice just what we
preach and should we succeed in
ridding the country Of its tyrants and
political vagabonds, we shall ask neith-
er stamps nor bonds as n recompense
for our patriotism. However while
we are writing the work "gocs bravely
on" at Washington, in the Radical
caucus. The leaders in the crusade
against the Union have about as much
respect for the Constitution and the
people, as buA would have for 4
