TIE CoLoRED PEOPLE IN PoLITIcs.-W e
yield to no man in kindness of feeling toward
the colored population; we cannot find it in
ourselves to feel harshly towards them, and We
express in that the feeling of the entire South !;
but when they come To be set up as regulators
of the affairs of government the matter is some
what changed, and we most earnestly desire
that the white people should show them that
they cannot rule this State. But as long as
they can tamper with any disafected wing Of
the whites, their leaders always have ground
to deceive them. There is but one way to
drive wedge into their compact organization,
and that is to beat them if possible for every.
thing at every election; ask thcm no favors,
and make no concessions, but beat them, and
disappointment will do what reason and pur
suasion never will.-CIarE,e Courier.

The ELECTION IN LoUDoUN. THE result OF
the election in this county is not as the Con-
servatives anticipated, and shows want OF or
ganization and concert OF action to give the
party the benefit OF the strength its numbers
entitIe it to. The result shows Conservative
majority in the county OF over six hundred, and
vet two of the nominees are beaten in the coun'
tv by independent candidates of the other par
ty, demonstrating that individual preference
was stronger with many of the Conservatives
than devotion to the principles of the party to
which they profess to adhere. Such lack OF
organization and indifference may in time place
the large dominant Conservative majority here
completely at the mercy and control OF the radl-
cal minority. Those Conservatives who are too
independent to support the nominees OF the
party will only have to pursue this course at
few more elections. and they will find til emselves
DEFENDANTS OF the Radicalminority; A minor
ity party, properly drilled, and uoited 10
action, can soon defeat Is party largely in the
majority, when distracted by those who must

D EUROPEAN AFFAIRs.-Gen. De Palladlnes,
commanding the French army of the Loire.
has made report to Government at Tours
concerning the recent battles in the vicinity of
Orleans. He claims that the city was captur.
ed after two days fighting, that the Prussians
lost largely in killed, wounded and prisoners
two cannon and much stores and ammunition.
He has issued an order to his troops congatu.
lating them on their victory. A telegram from
the headquarters of King William at Versail
les acknowledges the evacuation Of Orleans,
but makes no mention Of the reported engage
nents. and says that the French did not pur.
sue tho retreaiing army.
We published yesterday an account of the
surrender of Breisach to the Prussians, 1t Is
thought that Prussia will prefer the annexa-
ton Of AIsace and Lorraine to any guarantee
that neutral powers may see tit to make. A
Brussels despatch says that weinformed
political circles are impressed with the belief
that new arrangement for an arbitration has
been effected by four OF the neutral Powers.
and the initiative has been taken by Prussia for
the assembling of Congress.

The New York Independent, speaking OF
the dry goods market says that "the market
is altogether falling one A fall in cotton
and fall in gold necessitates a fall in the artl-
Gle which these great staples represent. Cot
ton has fallen ten cents pound since last year
at this time. and gold twenty-five per cent
Labor has not fallen, nor provisions, in pro-
portion; hence the fall in the cost OF production
is not equal to che fall Of the prime material,
and it would be unreasonable to expect cor
responding fall in the prices of the manu-
featured articles. Still there is large and
tempting decline in standard cotton fabrics,
which has stimulated purchases to certain
extent, but not in so great degree as might be
expected"
