The Colored Man end the Democracy.

On a number OF occasions We stated
that the Democracy will, as soon as it
can without displaying toe much ircon-
s;stency, counsel securement of the
eolored vote for that party. In an edi-
torial in the Harrisburg Patriot, under
date of May 9Th, the following may be
read. which is just to the point: " Now
that the negro has been endowed with
the suffrage, it is right and the duty of
the Democracy to see that it is executed
With as much wisdom as possible. The
ballot is not a mere pledge of equality,
but is an implement of political power,
and the Democrats should use all Just
means to secure it."

The next relay Of men brought up George
Gull, dead. and .hortly after a report
was brought from below stating that the
barricade had been broken through, and
a dozen men were lying insensible across
the tract, some groaning heavily, others
foaming at the mouth, and most OF them
with life extinct. From the hour of one
o'clock last night until twelve to day the
work of raising the unfortunate men,
dead and living, has been going on slowly
but with unremitting energy. Despair
and hope, sadness and joy, have alter
nately swayed the anxious crowd. When
THE LAsT MAN
was brought out the people fingered
around the scene, unwilling to depart
from the field of death.
AN INTERVIEW WITH SOME OF THE
SAVED
The Press reporter called on Thomas
and George Edwards this afternoon.
These men were among those shut up in
the mines, aud are the least injured Of all
They are father and son. George said:
"We found ont about three o'clock that
the shaft was on fire, anl We thought at
once of Avondale. Fifteen or more of
US had come near the bottom of the shaft,
and saw some fire falling. We ran back
about two hundred yards and built bar
ricade across the east gangway. John
Burroughs was the man who wrote with
chalk. After shutting ourselves in we
sat down together all anxious, some de-
spairing and some hoping we should see
daylight again More of them would
have died if | had not kept up their cour-
age. About six o'clock some of them
went to sleep, and l tried to wake them
up, but they would sleep Again We
shook hands with each other, kissed
each other. and we all prayed. Some of
the men were crying We who were
awake were anxious to hear some sign Of
salvation coming to us. | opened the
door and went through to the bottom of
the shaft. but almost failed to come back.
Since then | remember nothing-it seems
as if had been dreaming.
Late dispatches state that most of the
miners rescued from the burning shaft
have either since died or are rapidly
sinking. 1t is feared they will all die.

LAST Thursday Vice President Colfax,
while presiding over the Senate in its de-
lberations on the present treaty framed
by the Joint High Commission, sudden
ly took i'll, and his life for time was de-
paired of He is slowly recovering. He
had presided continuously four or five
hours that day. The close attention re-
quired of him in the sitting atmosphere
of the Senate Chamber. which had every
door aud window closed for fear that
some enterprising newspaper correspon-
dent might learn something of the Senate
on the treaty, caused rush of blood to
the lead, which nearly deprived him OF

READING MATTER ON EVERY PAGE,
The End OF the Paris Insurrection.

Within the past ter days the Paris in
eurrcctinn. which at first seemed to have
a sound Republican or Democratic prin-
ciple for basis, has come TO an end
amidst scenes of fire, pillage. murder and
hcodshrd If we understand it. the III
suirvctionis;s first asked that the Theirs
government should not appoint the mayor
or mayors of Paris. but that the people
should be allowed to elect the city Off
cials. The right asked for was not
siauted. Rebellion against the regular
government Immediately followed. The
savage character of the insurgents aud
she utter incompctency of their leaders
xt the same tune was revealed in excesses
of tine most atrocious character. The
first generals Of the government that fell
into their hands they shot. with as little
treliug as though they been so many
dogs; and this was but the beginning of
a rule that had no reason in its manage
ment.
Ten days ago the troops of the rcsu-
Ear government, fought their way into the
city. The insurrectionists thcreupon
commenced to rob and burn, and the net
ter the building the more attention was
extended to them. Great works of art
were burned and tumbed to the ground.
Palaces and other public buildings, and
churches, the pride of Paris and the ad-
niration of the world were wantonlv de-
stroyed, as though they had been 70
many heaps of noxious truck. The in
surectionists all the time kept up a fierce
and bloody fight against the regular
troops. Women participated in the fight,
and one despatch refers to a whole COM
pany of women that was taken prisoners,
and another states that the troops "sur
prised and shot on the spot large COM

The government troops. it is reported,
have shot a number of the leaders of the
insurrect:oni,ts without trial. Archbish-
op Darboy and sixty-nine priests were
shot in one night by the insurgents.
One-third of the city has been destroy
ed. There are fifty thousand dead and
wounded lying in differents parts of the
city, number of them children. The
London fire department was asked for
aid to put ont the fire. A brigade re-
sponded, and foreign firemen saved the
city from burning up Late dispatches
state that Americans and American prop
erty in Paris was respected, and received
little or no injury.
