Radical FaIsehood and Deception

Two years ago the Radical party OF
West Virginia declared cmphatically
that they were opposed to negro suf-
frage. and that it never should bc fas-
tened upon the people Of this State
unless by their consent, distinctly ex-
pressed They have since fastened 1t
upon Us in defiance Of orr constitution
and laws by the fraudulent adoption of
the Fifteenth Amendment, and now
their journals and politicians come for
ward with the same cant and falsehood
about SUMMERS infamous bill for in
Quoting the negro into our schools, col
leges, hotels and churches, and deny
that they have any -uch intention. The
Charleston Journal has the following
indignant denial oft
"DISnoNEsTY.-We understand that
the Democracy are engaged in distrib-
uting among the people Of the upper
counties printed circulars Of SUMMERS

embodiment Of the grand moral ideas OF
that party, and i only carrying out to

print and circulate this bill of SUMMERS
broadcast through the land rs u fair in

at is to be hoped that during

keep sober and not disgrace the office
by repetition of his drunken speech
on the verandah of the Herdic House,

The place was crowded with ladies,

himself of the following: GLAD to see

Grants Fading Glory.

The changes which President GRANT
has just made in some Of his New York
officials has raised a storm of indigna-
ton over his head. Especially has the
removal of Moses H. GRINNEIL, as Col
lector of the Port, and the appointment
of THOMAS MURPHY as his successor,
occasioned bitter denunciation. Not a
journal in New York or elsewhere de-
tends the prescription of the President,
for as Mr.. GRINNELL is a merchant OF
great reputation and Republican OF
unquestionable merit, they attribute
his unexpected removal to mere In
trigue on the part of GRANT and a few
of his personal friends. Of course we
care nothing for this change in officers,
for it is simply division of the spoils
among members of the same cor,
rupt party. Indeed, even the
Philadelphia Press, one Of For,
NEY's two dailes, is frank enough TO
admit that the New York Custom
house is regarded as scene Of general
corruption, and it is of very little conse'
quence to the country who fills 1t, ex'
cept in so far As it affects the general
interests Of the party" There will
probably be as much, or more, stealing
under MURPHY than under any ofhis pre-
decessors but we allude to the event
simply as commentary upon GRANTS
total want of the capacity and wisdom
necessary to conduct the affairs either
of a party or of the country. y few
keen rich men, by their gifts and fiat

pleasure around their fingers, and put
him 10 any use that may subserve theil
selfish ends, and he never stops to think
or care whether he is representing thu
interests of his country or not. Blu
