They Calculate"

Yes, they do! We have never known
stronger instances of fanciful fguration
than those now resorted to for the purpose
of keeping up the hopes of the WELLS
party. The capital prize in a lottery,
$25, 200 in q horseback, two bags Of gold at
the end of a rainbow to o man in o straight,
is nothing to the poetical desperation Of the
followers of the great General WELLS. The
facility with which they summon thousands
of men in buckram to fill up the awful gaps
made by the Republicans and Conservatives
is wonderful. The young giant Of this
new party widens the gap as a reaper with
manly stride fells the golden harvest be-
fore him ; but the "calculators for WELLS
fill up the open spaces instanter with such
hordes of imaginary voters as were never
heard Of before. They talk of thousands
of white men just as though, they, too
were owned by WELLS. They make no
bones whatever of $4,000 of whites. These
men will figure away until Tuesday noon,
and then their vast armies will dissolve
like frost before the sun. 1t will be seen
that their. thousands of whites are only
hundreds. u .r.T..l.

The Barbecue.

To-day on Vauxhall Island will be a re-
markable instance of the coming together
of the white people of Virginia and the
colored people who have been estranged
through the agencies of the devil. Speeches
will be made by white and black. 1t will
be the first unalloyed celebration by the
colored people. They viii be with their
own people of Virginia, and will feel that
at last they are advancing their true inte-
rests and happiness. They will not be con-
ferring with men whose habits and tastes
they do not understand, whose parsimony
they despise, and with whom they have no
sympathy in this world. They never have
been and never can be happy with these
people. Hence, when they meet in counsel
with carpet-baggers thoir gentle natures are
perverted to violent dispositions, to unjust
suspicious, and hatred towards their white
fellow-citizens Of Virgins, and they want to
knock somebody for differing with them,
and want to .shackle the liberties of the
whites, who are their onlyfriends. In this
way those who have been educated as kind
and generous people, are by evil influences
converted into sayages. a1soa'. (,
But the worthy colored people who have
seen these evils and meet to-day on the
Island to rejoice over their liberation from
them viii experience more true happiness
than can eger.be dreamed of by the IN
happy men who are under the influence Of
carpet-baggery. oEF a&E2aA@%

A Good Sign.

A meeting of the colored people who see
the right, and dare pursue, takes place to-
day on Vauxhall's Island. Their numbers
are large and their purpose firm. They
meet not only to confer as to the cause, but
to rejoice in their convictions of right and
Justice, and in the bright prospect of the
triumph near OF hand. Two years ago
such a movement would have been nextto
impossible. But time has shed light upon
the situation, and those intelligent free
colored men who see where their duty and
their interests lie can NO longer be intimi-
dated by q brutal tyranny inaugurated by
designing and dishonora BILE strangers.
These colored people have no idea of ex-
changing one slavery for another. They
are right, and they viii prevail. Terror
ism has lost its terrors for them. In q few
months the whole colored population will
declare their independence Of all the clap
trap-set up for them by the hateful men
who schemed alone for their own selfish
ends. A

Shrewd Suggestion.

N.ft
In view of the inevitable fate of WELLS,
Mr.. HUNNIcUTT suggests that an ordsf'
might be.issued just about the close of the
campaign to the scalawags, carpet-baggers,
and colored men of the WELLS party to
vote against the UNDERWOOD constitution.
1t would not be OF all surprising. 1t seer
tain that WELLS will be defeated but if
the constitution is also, defeated, WELLS
is still Governor, md, whateyerbe the judg-
ment of the people upon him, will continue
to be as long as General GRANT tolerates
him. HuNSIoUrF's suggestion is not with
out probability to back it. Therefore, the
Conservatives should by all means carry
the constitution. sYEY"iT5a ~ 9ttwG-

himself in favor of equal rights for al

Last night, Whittlesey, the carpet-bae
candidate for Congress, addressed a Grove
in the courthouse, composed. mostly Of
blacks, though there were some whites pre-
sent. lie harangued the audience for about
two hours in a speech which would at once
denote that be is q carpet-bagger Of the
lowest order. Most of his speech was en-
tirely irrelevant as regards the main issues
of the day, and he failed to touch upon the
separate clauses of the constitution. He
abused Mckenzie and Walker, and told
about them lies of such q kind as only a
carpet-bagger could have the face to do.
After speaking until after IL o'clock he
took his hat and started for the door, when
F. y. Winston, Esq, rushed quickly to the
stand, and, fully aroused with indignation
at q speech which was scraped from the
dust Of infamy, wanted to know how the
gentleman was going TO vote on the separate
clauses. Whittlesey answered that heswas
aboutth separate clauses as the whites
were about voting for the expurgated con-
stitution-that is, do as each one thought

There can be no peace or prosperity as

each other. They cannot meet except on
the platform of equality and freedom for
all. AS long as the blacks stand upon the
Petersburg and WELLS platform there must
be war and hate, and there can be no bar

plsyed. 1t is not mere difference about

Just OF this time the chairman raped and
stated that kr. Hunters time had expired,
but, Hunter like, he continues his remarks
until he had completely skinned Lester,
confused Joe Cox, and forced Mansfield to
declare publicly that Governor Wells would
not vote for the expurgsted constitution,
but :zote. for it just as hpis.~aMansfeld
claimed to have the Michigan joker's Owl
words for the truth and support of his as
sertion.
After Mansfield had harangued the au-
dience for O short time, Abram Hall, OF
Henrico, was introduced, and without any
circumlocution, opened heavily on the OBJ
iectionable clauses in the constitution. To
prevent him from finishing his speech,
Lester made two or three attempts to inter-
rupt him, which caused the audience to
crowd closely around the speaker, who,
during the slight excitement that then ex-
listed, asked the audience If they intended
to vote for the disfranchisement of their
white employers and neighbors. The an
swer was again, unanimously, No! After
which the chairman declared that tue time
for the meeting to adjourn had arrived, and
Mr.. Hall was compelled to retire. Another
man named Patterson then took the stand
to advocate the adoption of the constitution
as. it is, but became so excited that his
whole speech consisted of declaring to his
audience that 81 is mad, I is mad, to see
