A "UNIos Victory. "A case was
recently tried and decided in Rich.
mond, Virginia, which sheds flood
Of light upon tho manner in which the
Radicals carry on political campaigns.
Il. ID. Ruiiln, negro, brought suit
against Richard A. Ayre, white man,
and an ex Representative in Congress
+ The plaintiff Rufiin, testified ..!.,t that at.
agreement with him to go into that
district to canvass for the Republicans,
Ayre being candidate for re, election.
Ayre agreed TO pay Rufiin stipula.
ted sum, and he now claimed 1878 as
the balance due. Ayre tricd to get
away from bis bargain with Rutlin,
but with no success. Tho Jury said
ho must pay the money claimed
General Howard, the head of the
Frecdman's Bureau, was connected
with the dirty business, and endorsed
the claim of Rufiin. 1t can now be
seen in what manner carpot.baggcrs
and scalawags obtained seats in Con.
gress. Thcy hired negroes to labor
among their dusky brethren ; to bring
them to the polls, and thus secure the
election Of certain men. This was
the Radical mode Of preserving the
purity Of the elective franchise, and
Northern papers heralded the election
of men by such means, as victories
over which frcemcn should shout and
make merry. We do not think they
will do so after reading the case Of
Ruffin VS.. Ayre. .-Age.

Our readers are aware that for tho
last six weeks tho headquarters OF
"tho Government" have been at Long
Branch. About tho first of June,
Grant took up his summer residence
there and We are told that hc will re.
main there until the first of Septem.
her, when he will start on an overland
trip to California. Imagine George
Washington, Thomas Jefferson, James
Madison, or any of our former Prcsi-
dents, turning his back thus upon his
public duties Mt the Capital and loung-
ing in inglorious ease at the seaside
for whole summer And then fancy
the Indignation of the people if any
one Of them had asked for second
term under such circumstances.
Times have changed, however. The
American people have become strange
ly tolerant of the weaknesses and
vices of their rulers. Let US sec.
Tho Washington correspondent Of
the Philadelphia Inquirer, writing
from the National Capital, says: "a
mixed delegation which had come on
from one of tho Southern States to
osS - n---:i-.. loo, ,.-~~i. -.,.l -
irving here too late went to Long
Branch to see him. A portion have
returned, and say they were notified
by tho President that he considered
his house at Long Branch private and
refused 10 hear thom, and informed
them that no would only attend to
them when he came to Washington to
hold Cabinet meeting. . Ii bod.
Heretofore, it has been one of the
boasts of the American people that
their President, being their servant,
was opcn to them at all times. But
the man who now occupies the posi-.
ton of Chief Magistrate absents him.
self from tho place in which his du.
ties are to be discharged, for an entire
summer, and coolly informs his sover.
eigns who call to see him on matters
of great moment TO them, that "hiS
house at Long Branch is pricate."
Verify, "the servant is above his
master" Is it possible that the
American people will submit to this
neglect of official dutyy Will they
sanction this indifference to their
wants and wishes If this is the
manner in which tho machinery OF the
National Government is TO be run,
may we not us well have king to
rule over us ?-Valiey Spirit. lf-

A POLITICAL CAUCUS.

Meeting of Politicians nt Fifth Avenue Hotel
New Candidate FOR the senate.
A large assemblage OF newly elected members OF
the Senate and Assembly met at the Fifth Avenue
Hotel last night. 1t was rumored that they came
together to consider the charter but in reality
they held no regular meeting, and the time was
chiefly spent IN discussing the evens OF the coming
Legislature. 1t was slated that Governor AlvOrd
would be appointed Speaker OF The House; also
that General Sickes Is going TO Albany TO take pre-.
lim,nary steps to secure his nomination for the
United States Senate in place OF Mr.. C0nkling.
