From the New York Herald
F.r the Governor Of each State to follow
the example OF Governor Holden, Of North
Carolina, and issue prOclamations for
political effect, showing the shocking con-
dition of society there, garnished with
frightful lists of alleged KU-KlUX assas-
sinations, robberies, hOuse-burnings and
dlabOlical OUtrages Of nearly every des-
cription. The true condition of the South
may be bad enough in some localities, but
it is manifestly a mistaken policy to ran
sack the country over and present 70 the
world in exaggerated colors every misde-
Hneanor that occurs, and no dOubt many

The Cholera in India and its Dangers.

From the New 1Ork deFdlu.I
The last dispatches from India state that
the Asiatic cholera is making dreadful
rayages in all parts of that country.
Bombay dispatches report that the dis
ease is particularly virulent in Madras.
The pestilent demon is far way of from
Us, it is true, but at the same time it
would be well for our government TO OBJ
tain all possible information as to its pro-
gress. The Navy Department, for in
stance, might make inquiries, through
the officers in command OF our ships in
that direction, and the State Department
should inform itself, through our consuls,
upon the subject. We know that Ia the
cholera years Of 1882 and lS49 the disease
was brought TO this country in ships from
Europe. We should remember that the
communication, even With remote India,
Is much closer now, by means Of railroads
and steamships, that cover the land and
the sea, than Il was twenty years ago,
and therefore there is more necessity Tor
foresight and precaution on the part Of
the government. II will do no harm to
be a little ahead OF danger.

Not the least interesting Of the fall
elections viii be that INVEST Virginia. II is
stated that there are as many as 5000
white men disff3nchised in this State,
and the removal of their disabilities is a
prime issue in the canvass. Even should
It not be carried, the figures can hardly
tail TO point to hopeful future from the
very rapid manner in which the Demo-
cratic vote gains upon the Radical. In
1864 the Radical vote was 5000 to the
Democratic 10000, and In 1888 but 5000
Radical to 20,OOO DemOcratic-shOWing q
Democratic increase Of 100 per cent. to q

We believe the present work 10 be most
valuable and important contribution to the
history of American parties and politics.
In that history, at critical period. Mr,
Webster played prominent and active part.
- Not only was he one of the foremost men
OF his time, both at the bar and in the Sen
ate, but he was the recognized leader, and
one OF the chief organizers, Of the party
which, after many vicissitudes Of fortune
and many material changes Of principle,
afier being apparently broken up and dis
comited, has In our own time revived,
gained a complete ascendancy within the
Northern States, and directed, for the last
ten years, the policy and legislation Of the
Federal Government
The life OF such & man belongs to the his
tory Of his country; and that history must be
incomplete and liable to misapprehension In
the absence Of the light thrown upon It by
his personal biography"
