ConrersIOn EXTRAORDINARY.

Prosecuting SAUL, on his way to
Damascus to destroy the Saints, was
not more powerfully convicted and
converted than is the Evansville
Courier on the subject of negro sufq
frage. The fact that the Fifteenth
Amendment is certain of ratification
and that there are from twelve to IF
teen thousand negro voters in Indiana,
aud from two to three hundred in
Vanderburgh County. is the basis on
which its sudden conversion rests.
We copy its profession of faith this
morning, and commend it especially
to the Irish Democracy, most of whose
creed consists in hatred of the
negro. But why should the Courier
consider it necessary to insult the
Irish members of it's party in order
10 conciliate the negro? 1t says:
those lcho look upon The negro as be.
ing naturally stupid and degraded,
governed alone By passion and prJu-
dice, are simply giving rent TO their
ol0n ignorance of human nature and
common sense"
But is not this just what the Demo-
cratic party has been doing in all
the years that ara past. Who has
been opposing negro suffrage, and
who stands committed against the
Fifteenth Amendment? The Demo
cratic party of Vanderburgh County
and Indiana. The resolution Of its
last State Convention placed the party
in direct antagonism to the Fifteenth
Amendment, and We presume the
negroes are not so stupid or de-
graded as not to be aware Of this
fact It is their province to make
the Democracy aware of it the first
time they can lawfully 90 to the polls
and vote, and we doubt not they will
do so. The Courier's extremity is
great, but its want of manliness in re-
fusing to fight the battle oat on the
line selected By the last Democratic
State Convention. is most pitiable.

We have been frequently asked
whether the moderate Democrats were
really disposed to consort with the
moderate Republicans of Evansville
at the Spring Observation-Disclosures
who do not endorse the present city
government. We have uniformly an
swered yes" In turn we ask how
will such men as Christian Wunder-
Itch and Adolph Pfafflin do for city
officers? They are good men; and
moderate Democrats are looking after
that kind Of men.
But let the moderate Republicans
name their own candidates. We are
for theml The men whom we have
named are men of sense, and will
suit Democrats il they suit moderate
Republicans Courier.
We congratulate the Courier on the
progress il is making. 1t is very late
finding out the good qualities Of
Messrs. WUNDRRLIcH and PFAFFLIN.
but its acknowledgment of their
fidelity and efficiency is worth some
thing. Heretofore, when they were
candidates, the Courier editors did
their level best to beat them, but
always failed. We doubt not both
these gentlemen regard themselves as
fully able to get along now without
that papers assistance. We dare say
that they regard it as a most unfor-
tunate circumstance in their career,
that the Courier should praise them.
For the benefit Of the Courier we
will suggest that Mr.. PFAFFLIN's Re-
publican friends think Of supporting
him for 0 most responsible county Of
fec next Fall, and we hope, when
they nominate him for that position,
that the Courier will not go back on
it, present declarations Of respect and
confidence. Doubtless its expression
Of desire to support him for a city
Office this Spring, IS to get him out Of
the way. Messrs. WUNDERLICH and
PFAFFLIN are too old birds to be
caught with chafF. Ii will be some
time before they consent to serve as
cat's-paWs to rake Democratic chest
nuts out Of the fire.
In the meantime We shall copy its
praise of Republican officials with
pleasure, because is unwilling praise
extorted from political opponents
