NEGROES IN THE SoUTH.-The southern
negroes are beginning to see into the greedy
and deceitful characters of the carpet-bag-
gers. They find that all the work OF CO.
operating with these knaves ends in their
bagging everything that is worth having {;
and BAYNE has had his skull cracked for
daring to demand share of the plumber.
It's all the time the game of the white man
with the Indian when they hunted together
and killed crow and turkey. The white
man proposed to divide thus with the In
dian You may take the crow and the
turkey, or I'll take the turkey and you
"may take the crow, just as you please"
The Indian considered awhile-for it was o
matter to be considered just as is to the
negro the question of o fair division between
himself and carpet-baggers. Seeing at last
how the proposition stood, the Indian ex-
claimed, "You no say turkey to me
once!" Of course not-and SO it is be-
tween the carpet-bagger and the negro.
Who on earth but the negro did not know
who would get all in the trade between these
two? The dolphin had as well 60 in bust
ness with the shark, or the fawn with the
tiger, or the goat with the leopard, or the
kid with the fox
But experience is beginning to tell. Fur
Their South the negroes are making amends
for their gullibility in determining to trust
their deceivers no more. This appears In
Mississippi, in Georgia, and in South Caro-
lima. In the latter State prominent ne
gro in the Legislature declared that "they
I" (the negroes) had filled offices with igno-
Grant, irresponsible white men, always
"yielding to the cry of expediency; but
they would be deceived no longer"

BAYNE AND FRIENDS on THE RAMPAGE
The Norfolk Journal of Friday has the fol-
lowing:
Pursuant to call issued on yesterday a
large audience of the friends of DR.. Baync
assembled in the courthouse last night to
express their indignation ut the cowardly
attack made on the Doctor by the Chandler
and Platte ruffians at City Point.
Speeches were made by the Doctor, l..
W. Smith, and others, denouncing the au-
thors of the outrage in the most unmea-
sured terms, and breathing with vengeance
upon all who either took part in it or
planned it.
In speaking of Platte, the Doctor said
that he would reiterate what he had told
him to his face: that he would not believe
him (Platte) on his oath that he was a
common falsifer, and could not he trusted.
No decent man would associate with him,
because natural instinct would teach him
otherwise.
Smith denounced Chandler and his party
as fraud from the start, and gave L. l.. K.
Baker a scoring. He called him q liar, q
scoundrel, q thief, and a vagabond.
Resolutions were passed, in accordance
with the spirit of the meeting, denouncing
Chandler, Platte, and all who had a hand
in the dastardly attack, and providing for
committees to 60 throughout the district and
show the people of what low, contemplate
set of scoundrels this Chandler and Platte
party is constructed,
The meeting was conducted in good order,
and at q late hour adjourned.

REMOVAL OF NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
naper 1.-THE North Carolina Standard is de-
cidedly opposed to the removal OF dlsapili-
ties from the "rebels ~" if there ever
was a time when" it "was safe and ex-
pedient, that time has passed." says the
Standard. OF course HOLDEN is perfectly
content for things to stand just where they
are. lie wants no elections and no changes
of any kind. He is in the Governors
seattle and his friends have all the Of
fees, and their arms are deeply thrust into
the treasury of course, "thus circum-
stanced," removal of disabilities or any
change whatever is out of the question! AS
vel! expect swindlers and robbers to pro-
claim that every man should give up what
didn't belong to him.
But this suggestion of HoLDEN's points
to his danger. 1t proceeds from the fears
of q guilty conscience. The disabilities
will be removed, and then there will be
knocking at the Governors mansion that
will strike terror to its occupant like that
which filed the heart of MACBETH when he
heard the thunders at the castle-gate the
morning after the murders. Those who
know the crimes and depravities Of HOLDEN
may well forget the horrors of his rule in
the pleasing anticipations of the not very
distant retribution that is to burst upon
him

WANTS HIS FEEs.-PoRTER-oneo OF the
most imam ous, probably the meanest' OF
Radical interlopers-has had his salary cut
off by the Common Council of Norfolk. he
is indignant at it. Carpet-baggers are
always indignant when their income is
diminished. He held the office Of attorney
for the city, to which he was elevated by
the negroes; but getting in rather bad
"odor" even with the negroes, he came
up to Manchester, and deluded the poor ne
groes of that place and Chesterfield into
electing him to the Convention (ate mon
greD, in which body he sat during the
winter and most of the spring, getting about
a thousand dollars therefor. Next he De-
comes, by corrupt caucus nomination. a
candidate for Congress from this (klchmondl
district. Proceeding to look after his inte-
rests here after this fashion, he in effect
changes his domicil, and neglects the office
to which he was elected in Norfolk. The
Council cut off his salary after waiting with
unexampled patience, and the carpet-bag-
ger rails as though he were martyr.
HUNNIcUTT helped to put PORTER in the
Convention, and he is one of those who,
being indebted to HUNNICUTT's power for
promotion to the first landing, have since
been enabled to advance still higher, while
HUNNIcUTT is doomed to labor on unre-
warded; and what's worse, is derided by
those whom he absolutely made.

IRELAND.-Before Mr.. Bright went to Ire
land he paid visit to Liverpool, and there
made speech, in which he assumed that
"there has never been any real union between
Great Britain and Ireland" and that Gun
til lately there has been no approach to
good government in Ireland" the rule Of
England being ga rule Of Protestant and
political ascendancy, with which the Irish
people have no sympathy, and against which
the Irish nation has perpetually protested"
The history of Ireland for three hundred
years has been history "of misery, Of
discomfort, OF conspiracy, and of insurrec-
tion," and although of late some ameliora-
tons have been attempted, "still the gu
premacy continued, and the sign and the
symbol Of it has been the Protestant Estab-
lishment in Ireland.n
And these assertions he maintained and
elucidated in his peculiar and powerful
manner. Before he concluded he declared
that, in his opinion, Tory triumph at the
approaching elections would be the separs-

Grand Meeting Tonight.

A meeting of Conservatives at the cal OF
Mt the Theatre tonight. 1t is to be q grand
SEYMOUR and BLAIR ratification meeting
Speeches are expected from leading citi-
zcns of the State who were members of the
New York Convention. Messrs. BALDWIN,
TUCKER, and GooDE are amongst those ex-
pccted, and possibly General WADE HAMr-
Ton and Ex-Governor VANCE, Of North Ca
rolina.
This will be the opening of the campaign
in Virginia. 1t will be the first opportunity
the people of Richmond have had to take
part in national politics for some eight
years, and they now have them presented
in the most exciting form, that of the Pre-
sidential campaign. That they will with
alacrity seize this opportunity we are sure.
The disposition would be strong at any time !;
but we have presented to us a ticket for the
Presidency that rests entirely for its success
upon questions involving our own rights as
well as the peace and prosperity Of the ma
ton. The nominees upon that ticket are
gentlemen who will uphold the Constitution
and the equality of the States as indispen-
sable to the preservation Of republican 60
vernment and civil liberty in this country.
They are no temporizcrs. They are open
and frank-clcar and decided in the ex-
preston of their opinions. To sustain
such men, and such principles as they stand
upon, will be most agreeable to the people
of Richmond, as we shall see tonight by
their assembling en- masSe in the Theatre,
and with heart, hand, and voice applauding
and. ratifying the work of the Democratic
Convention and the nominees they have
placed before the nation.

The recent Democratic Convention was
the tenth national convention of the Demo-
cratic party. The five Presidents before
1924 were nominated by congressional eau
cuses at Washington. In that year the
caucus nominee, William H. Crawford, had
to contend with three Independent candi-
dates, Adams, jackson, and Clay, who sue
ceeded in carrying the election into the
House, where MIR. Adams was elected. In
1923 Adams and Jackson were nominated
by conventions of their respective parties in
the several States, and Jackson was sue
cessful. The first national convention was
held in 1882, at which Andrew Jackson was
renominated by reclamation. Of the eight
subsequent Democratic conventions the
candidates of only four were elected-viz.,
Van Buren, in 1886, Polk in 1914, Pierce in
1852, and Buchanan in 1856.

The Election in Virginia Soon to take
Place.

A bill has passed the lower House OF
Congress ordering the elections in this State
on the Constitution and for State officers,
Legislature, and Congress, on the 18TH,
i4th, end 18th Of August. We arc happy
to state that it does not prohibit the re-
opening of the registry to permit the regis
tration Of those who ere entitled to vote
who have not registered.

the right to do so {; thus showing h1s Pc

sinia, hadst thou this governor for o ruler

they infcrentially confessed that there were
not men enough in the State who were ca

oath to fill the pmblic Offices; but
they thought that difficulty most easily
removed, as the Constitution authorized
three-ffths of the Legislature to re-
move disabilities 1t seemed to satisfy
Boutwell, & Co. So in case the Constitu-
ton is adopted the Offices will be sold to
men who degrade themselves by turning
Radicals to get them. We think we will
save them the necessity or opportunity for
any such degradation.

and Old Virginia will, in her turn, run the
gauntlet prepared for her by the Washing
