H- The question of suffrage has
taken peculiar form in the South
ern States. The Republicans favor
impartial suffrage, and the Democrats
oppose it with qualification, which
may be put into this formula: "The
negro ls unfit to vote unless he votes
our ticket" In Mississippi negro
suffrage is popular with the Democ-
racy. and the New York Convention
may lose the electoral vote of that
State if it comes out fatfcoted against
negro suffrage. If the Democracy
desire harmony North and South,
East and West, they will incorpor-
ate the above formula into the nation-
al platform. .-Cin. Com.

scoEDING STAKE HeLDER, AND A
BLUE LOT OF SPORTS.
One day last week there was 8
large gathering of the ''fancy" at
point in Kentucky, opposite Ironton,
to witness a race between couple OF
ambitious quarter-horses. Large bets
were made and every fellow who in-
vested, fully expected to realize
handsomely on his superior judg-
ment. But just before the race was
to have come off, man by the name
of Mcintyre undertook to settle an
old grudge he had against Joseph
Fisher, in the course of which he
was severely shot by his plucky an
tagonist. A general row ensued in
the course of which the stakeholder
slipped off with the ''funds," leav-
ing those who had ''invested" to re-
fleet at their leisure on the uncertain
ty of that class of speculations and
the ''pure cusssdness' of the stake.

g- The murder of Nathan Daw-
son, in Simpson County, Kentucky,
was accomplished through the agen-
cy of that innocent organization, the
Ku KluX Klan, which has found its
ablest defenders in the Democratic
press of the country. Nathan had
been guilty of serving in the army OF
the Union. He was one of "the
three hundred thousand more" who
rallied to the flag, and sung "Dewn
with the traitor, up with the stars, +"
and fought as he sung. Having
been engaged in an unconstitutional
war; having assisted in the invasion
of the South; having been, in short
an oppressor or the agent of oppres-
sion, what was there for poor Nathan
but to suffer just retribution at the
hands of Kentucky patriots, and die

Eg Last week we gave an item,
announcing that Hon. ISAAC N. NOR
R1s, of Quincy, Illinois, a life long
democrat, had pronounced in favor
of Gen. GRANT for President, in a
speech in which he declared that the
highest welfare of the nation de-
manded the election of that honest
statesman and General, and asserted
his pre- eminence as the man to save
the country. The speech in full has
been written out and published, and
is a stirring appeal to all patriots to
rally to the standard of GRANT and
CoLFAx. We annex the closing par
agraph, as its words are those of q
patriot who seeks the peace, and
glory of his country, even to the
severance of old party associations:
The ensuing four years will, in my
| Judgment, be the most dangerous
| and eventful in our history, and we
must have one at the head of the
Government who will be equal to the
emergency, or we will sink under the
weight of a crushing revolution. No
tremulous hand must be at the helm;
| no politician who will seek only his
own interest at the expense of the
national security. Ineed hardly add
that, If I live until November, and
can reach the polls, appealing to the
God of Hosts for the rectitude of my
intentions, and believing shall be
serving the best interests of humani-
ty and my country-believing there
is necessity which rises far above
conventional platforms, and party
demands, requiring every patriotic
| citizen to do his duty--I shall cast
my vote, Democrat though 1 have al
ways been, for the incorruptible pat
rist, the best judge Of character, and
the best thinker / know in the United
States--Ulysses S. Grant; "and go
thou and do likewise" counting it a
great privilege.

The Bloody South.

The fendish spirit of slavery RACES
throughout the South. How could 1T be
otherwise2 1t has always taken two or
three generations to wear out the hatred
that defeated nation feels toward its
conqueror. 1t is hatred Of the nation,
not Of the negro himself, that maddens
the South. Time alone can cure it.
Recollect the century needed to burn
out the fierce hate of Scotland and the
Stuart faction toward the House of Han
over. Recolect our own bitterness to-
ward England, engendered by the revo-
luton, refreshed by the war of 1917
buried in the graves of two generations
since, but revived to all its old fierceness
by the cruise of one Alabama.
We are told on the highest official au-
thority in Georgia, that the published
accounts give US no adequate description
of the terrible reality. ALI is anarchy
and bloodshed. From other States we
hear that no negro can get employment
unless he shows a ticket certifying his
membership Of Seymour club. An old
Kansas friend now, as ever, planting
himself on the most exposed point OF the
battle-ground, writes us that if he sue
ceeds in keeping a dozen negroes in his
county true to the Republican ticket, he
shall esteem himself fortunate, so dread
ful are the perils TO life and the risk OF
starvation that hang over them.
If Congress had given the loyal men
either land or guns, they could have de-
Tended themselves Another friend, so

cal service of the war, tells us that on .
plantation of which he aud his friends

Attempt to Murder an Heirsss.
From the Detroit Tribune. Oct. 2s.l

From the Detroit Tribune, Oct. 2S.I
At the present time citizens, living in
the immediate vicinity of the corner of
Michigan avenue and Sixth street, are
greatly agitated lest a murder and pos
sibly other terrible crimes shall be COM
mitted. While one family is the most
excited over the matter, the feeling of in
security is prevalent through the entire
neighborhood. On Monday night last, a
bold and outrageous attempt was made
to murder a young lady, named Mary
Sanford, residing with the family of Mr..
Deering, who is propriei or of dry goods
store on the corner above named. She
was met by some villain in the evening,
and came very near losing her life. The
wretch, whoever he was, made three sepa-
rate attempts to stab the young lady, and
cut her hat in as many pieces, appear
ances would indicate with a razor.
Several days since an anonymous note
was sent to the house of Mr. Deering for
Miss Sanford, in which the writer re-
uuested q private interview with her con-
cerning matters which the person said
interested her only. The writer selected
q locality and 9 time for the meeting.
Mr.. Deering accompanied the young
lady, but as nothing could be seen Of the
mysterious parsonage at the appointed
place they returned home. Another note
was received, which stated that the writer
wished to see Miss Sanford alone, and
appointed Monday evening as the time
and the corner of Eighth and Fort
streets as the place of meeting. On this
occasion Mr.. Deering remained at home,
and another gentleman went as an escort
with Miss Sanford. As they neared the
locality last referred to, the gentleman
walked down one side Of Eighth street,
the better to observe any movements
that might be made, while she walked on
the other side. As she approached a
secluded spot near Richardson's match
factory, an unknown man jumped from
near the fence and struck the young lady
q powerful blow upon the head. She i'm
mediately cried for assistance, when the
gentleman who accompanied her as a
guard rushed 10 her assistance Before
be could reach her, however, the would
