Coon FATH-During the canvass, which
has now come to brilliant close, an attempt
was made by the Radical wire-pullers to
persuade the colored people that the whites
had determined to scratch all the colored
candidates from the Wagner ticket They
we're told that their names were used as u
blind, and that not colorcd Alderman would
be elected although the Citizens Party were
successful That there was no truth in the
infamous charge is shown by. count of the
vote taken ON yesterday. The colored can.
didates Oh the Citizens tickt ran we'll, and
are all elected. They will doubtless make
excellent Aldermen, for they arc responsible
men who have at heart the good OF the city.
From the beginning of the canvass the
Citizens party have kept filth with the col
orcd people who wero invited to join in the
brave work of giving to Charleston an honest
and economical government. And the Citi-
zens' Party stand pledged to secure to the
colored people their every privilege and their
just share of whatever patronage the city
may have to bestow. This is what was an
nounced before we went to the polls We
repeat it when flushed with victory.
In n few months Charleston will have a
Municipal government at once impartial, in
tclligent and sagacious; which will protect
the humbest as we'll as the wealthiest citizen,
which will know one object alone-the
restoration of the city credit, the curtailmcnt
of expenditures, the promotion Of individual
and general prosperity, and the securing to
all conditions of men the blessings of good
will, progress and,peace. And every citizen
who voted for Wagencr on Wednesday last
may pride himself upon being one of the
gallant band who pcaceably defeated the
common enemy, and restored to our homes
the tranquility and security 50 long denied
our pcoplc-UarlestCn Mcrs.

If all manufacturing corporations were like
those Of Lewiston there would be less chill
there are. The accomplished master of the
High School in that city informs us that no boy
or girl can obtain employment in any of the
factories or shops without first exhibiting a
certificate from the proper authorities stating
that the person presenting it has attended
school atleast three months within the year.
In Massachusetts, though special care is taken
to prevent the employment of uninstructed
children in factories, there being law forbid
ding it and an officer appointed especially to en-
force it, little success has as yet been obtained
in securing a large average of attendance in
the schools of manufacturing towns.

A WRITER in the World propounds what he
calls the active policy as the best scheme for
Cheating Grant" The leading points of his
scheme are, that there shall be no nominat-
ing convention and no platform of principles ;
but that the Democrats and Republican sore
heads in each State should vote for the most
popular man in their respective localities, leav-
ing the Presidential electors of each State at
liberty to cast their votes for either of the
candidates, as they shall see fit, after the cleo
ton. Although he would dispense with any
thing in the shape of platform, yet he says
it should ''tacitly understood" that in the
event of Grants defeat every man in the
country now holding Office should be removed
to make way for the victors. This, he thinks,
would enlist the active sympathy and support
of all the ''outs," and would make success all
but certain. 1t may be observed that neither
the 'passive' nor this new 'actiye policy
aims any higher than to secure the aid of dis
appointed office-seekers and is urged only by
those who rally under the slogan: ''To the
victors belong the spoils.''

Political Notes.

Many papers misled by the political alma
macs, have stated that the term for which
Gov. Bullock was elected in Georgia termi-
mates January, 1872. The term for which
he was elected does not expire until January,
1873.
The leading Democrats of South Carolina
are making strenuous efforts to pay the ex-

A bottle of whiskey was found on Rev J. S.

The friends of the claimant to the Tichborne
estate in England raised money to carry on the
plaintiff case on bonds, which were issued at
thirty-fve per cent on their face value. Some
time ago these bonds were worth about $40 per
$100 in the market, but recent testimony has
brought them up to $50, which shows the i'm
preston regarding the result of the litigation
