The Superintendent of the Great Western
road also came in for share Of work in the
removal, and was called on to provide an
extra train of eight large passenger coaches
for the accommodation of the patients.
While the train was making up tho people
were held ON board the boat, or the most
feasonable allowed to wander up and down
the dock for q short distance.
None of them seemed to remember that
thew had seen q locomotive before, and the
puf3ine monster was an amazing sight to

their destruction az the result Of the jour

had been obtained against them from the
internal regions. At length, about ten
O'Clock, the train was ready, and the trans
fer commenced. Some Of the patients re.
fused to walk, and were carried in, and
coaxing and gentle force soon filed up the
coaches. One man came near being left be.

the boat, but sharp eye brought him oat,
and he went into o coach with his head
down, az if realizing that he had played the
game and lost. When all was ready, the
locomotive gave the usual ''off brakes" and
the train moved away, carrying of the most
curious lot Of shouting, screaming mortals
that one ever saw collected together.

Reading Matter on Every Page.

When Mr.. Bowen was elected, two years ago,
several distinct promises and pledges were
made, not one Of which has been redeemed.
An outcry was raised against the eStravagance
of his predecessor, and reform and retrench-
nent were shouted to gain votes.
What IS the result? In less than two wears
the debt Of the city Is increased from one million
TO two millions; its credit Is fallen its treasury
Is empty; its laborers are unpaid, and it's bonds
are hawked about without purchasers. Nobody
Is satisfied but the cormorants and contractors
who infest the "buzzard's roost, and who live
by public plumber.
What have we to show for this doubled debt !?
Streets opened upon the outskirts to benefit
favorites, mnd-holes and man-traps throughout
the city, and hardly q sign of substantial
Improvement.
Instead Of seeking to improve, beautify, and
render this capital attractive, the "Ring" have
converted il into sort OF experimental garden.
where low politics have been propagated to the
exclusion Of every practical interest. With the
million hlched from the taxpayers and fobbed
by yenal sycophants, much might have been
done for the city; whereas the streets are worse
than they ever were before, while the paving
and jobbing have cost twice as much. Thus
the candle has been burnt at both ends.
instead OF encouraging the colored people to
$500 ~ AAaN4Sag anu every e0Ort has
been made to degrade and enslaye them, by
1dleness, vice, and politics; 30 that while thou
sands have gone to new fields from Virginia. as
The eastern men 60 to the West to carve out
future for themselves by honest toll, this city
has been overrun with strong men who were
discouraged from taking work, and who have
been fed by Congress and our people, in order
that they might be kept here voters for the
City Hall crowd OF yuftures m June
In the last two years large number of people
have quit Washington on account of its misman-
sgement, and property has suffered seriously.
With two years more Of such ruinous rule, il is
easy to predict the future.
Tax payers care nothing about the politica,
antecedents Of Mr.. Bowen, or the costly crew,
headed by his henchman, w. A. Cook What
the good citizens OF all colors-for all are equally
interested-want is an efficient, upright, ca
pable and yigilsnt chief magistrate, who will
strive to redeem the capital Of the nation from
its present disgraceful position, and give a new
impulse to its material development
The colored people have no interest distinct
from the white population, and there ought to
be no antagonism of any sort. The scurvy pol
iticians who strive to run a dividing line of
prejudice between them are the worst enemies
of the city, and, in fact, they have no stake
here, except what adventurers may claim
wherever they go to prey upon tax-ridden
people.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1870-05-02

The eolOredyote in various doubtful States is
an element of sufficient importance to be An
object Just now Of no little solicftude to the
politicians. In Virginia the Democrats have
had the tact to utilize this vote for their own
advantage, and the Maryland Democracy are
moving in the same direction. In Delaware
pretty vigorous effort is to be made BY the Re-
Publcans TO secure the negro vote, or a sufficient
proportion Of IT to wrest the State from their
opponents, and at the same time to displace the
salisbury dynasty. As there are some four
thousand eolored voters in the State, and as
the Democratic majority ranges from twelve to
thuty-fve hundred only, the Republicans have
a pretty good show for success. 1t is under
stood that Sella Martin, editor OF the Era John
Nj. Langston. Professor of Howard Uniyer-
sity, Charles III. Peters. Collins Cursor. and
other eolOred speakers of this District, will
canvass the State of Delaware, and address
themselves more especially to voters of their
own race. Also, that Postmaster G eneraI Cres-
well, and Mr.. Richard Harrington OF the Wash
ington bar, will take part in the canvass in that
State. One result of the overthrow of the De-
mocracy in Delaware will probably be the dis
placement of Mr.. Salisbury in the u. s. Senate
by Judge Fisher. And should Judge Fisher 90
TO the Senate, Mr. Harrington may perhaps
succeedhim As our District Attorney.
1t is probable that Messrs. Martin and Langs-
ton, and some of the others named will also
canvass the State of Maryland. That State
gave Seymour $1,000 majority, bat the negro
vote is estimated at from 10000 to 8, 900; and
the white Republican vote will receive consd-
cradle increase from the Conservatives, disaf-
fected with Democratic rule. should Mary
land go Republican, Mr.. Creswell's chances of
political preferment will loom up prominently
In Kentucky, the eolored vote of 5000,
though not enough 10 overbalance the heavy
Democratic majority Of So 900 given for Sey-
mour, is still formidable enough to enable the
Republicans TO count upon carrying several of
the Congressional districts.
In some half dozen other States where the
vote is close, the colored vote, though small, is
a decisive element. In Connecticut the negro
vote Is about 900, enough to carry it either
Republican or Democratic, as the colored
voters may choose; and as both parties in that
State refused them suffrage, they are in a posi-
ton to act impartially. But the bulk of the
colored vote there will, elsewhere doubtless
be secured by the Republicans, their natural
allies.
Indiana is another close State and there the
two or three thousand colored voters will very
likely turn the scale, as will the ten thousand in
Pennsylvania, the FIVE thousand in New jersey
the seven thousand in Ohio, the twenty thou
sand in Missouri, and the twelve thousand in New
York.

Word comes to US from England that Mr.. JEFF
ferson Davis Is engaged in writing novel,
which Is to be completed before the year is out,
and TO be first published In London. Ii 10 added
that 1t Is to relate to the Mexican war, and will
not touch upon recent politics. We take leave
to doubt the statement In the first place, the
Information reaches us from roundabout and
unreliable source, and In the second place, Mr..
Davis knows very well that he Is not q success
ful romancer. He tried his hand at it i'm writing
proclamations while playing President of the
''late so-called," and failed hopelessly. He Is
not likely to try 1t again.
