THE TRUE DEMocRTrc POLICY.

THE TRUE DEMocRTrc POLICY.
Rcnorter. But what would be
your policy towards tho newly en-
tranchisud race of the South 2
Mr.. Adams. The Democratic party

that should be equal and exact justice

GENERAL GRANTS DENOMINATION.
Reporter. 1 suppose you think
General Grant will receive a ronomi-
nation at the hands of tho Republican
party? 80. ~.
Mr.. Adams. Undoubtedly, Mr..
Grant will be rcnominated, and tho
issue Of the next canvass will be up
on his administration. Now the pow.
or of tho patronage Of our govern
mcnt is enormous ut present, and the
discipline offthc Republican :.party is
generally superb. but it can hardly
carry snch n dead weight as that.
The dull incompetence and stolid
ignorance of tho President, his shame
less ncpotism and partiaIity to gifts,
his unblushing negligence Of duty.
may all be glosscd over for we all feel
kindly to tho man who finished the
war; but the disgruceful incompe:
tcnce Of the financial management OF
affairs should be. objectionable by Il
people supposed to bc rs shrewd a.
ours on that head.
TIE ISSUE OF THE CAMPAIGN.
Reporter. The issue yon wonl'l
then is one Of revenue reform and lta
kindred suhjccts?
Mr.. Adams. The Democratic tinan'
cial policy must be squarcly i" the
direction of FREQ trade and, general
raduc,ion of taxation. Tho shame
rIl ignorance which has persisted in
wrillyimr s!ich enormous sums from
the public ut such critical time,
WHEN they needed all their energy to
rally from the cxhaustions OF the
war, is far less purdonabIc ia my eyes
than this negro policy. saw that
General Mcclellan, in his admirable
letter to the Tummany Society. gave
the cuo which ought to be and will bc
followed. That Ictter and the equal
ly admirable letter of Governor 1loff-
man forcshadow the line to be taken.

Within the past few days some important ex-
PcIimeRts have been made at Sandy Hook for
tie purpose Of testing the capacity of steam
foiieTs- A number have been blown up, and it
= stated that the experiments have cOnclusively
demonstrated that explosions OF the most de-
Struciive character can be produced by not only
a moderate pressure, but one very slightly in
excess of what is commonly used. They also
prove that recourse is not necessary TO theories
OF low water, highly supeTheated hypothetical
steam and gases to account for the most terrible
explosions; and further show that an explosion,
which tore large boiler into small fragments
and would have entirely destroyed any vessel in
which It might have occurred, took place with
plenty Of water and steam pressure but little
m exc ssS Of what is frequently used with boilers
IT rs type. The valuable information aimed
iron, fI,s. experiments to the causes OF boiler
,,pIosiops ourr, TO be widely disseminated for
the benefit OF humanity IN general and engineers
in particular.

The demOrahzing utterances of Victoria
Woodruff and her adherents are being severely
characterized by decent people generally. On
Wednesday evening in New York, during an
eloquent address to large congregation, the
Rev. Father Damien, in referring to the large
number of " religions" which spring up now-a-
days on the slightest pretext; said he looked
urOn il as bad omen for the morality of New
York TO see an audience of some thousand Of
men and women sit for two hours and listen to
the vile attacks made 10y such a woman on re-
HgiOn's hottest institutions, and vehemently
applaud when she ridiculed what every Chris
tisn was taught to believe most sacred. New
York society he thought must be in deplOr-
able condition when men and women OF wealth
and genius, moving in the highest circles, paid
homage to a woman who declared that she was
a Free Lover" gloried in the title, and grew
enthusiastic when she called on her female
hearers to pay no attention to what she called
the - hollow unmeaning ceremony ofmaTriage, -
but 10 declare themselves I" Free Lovers" as she
had done, After that the good father NAV look
out for a challenge from Tilton.

Some Of the physicians of the poor in this
District expressed doubts a. to the prOpriety of
physicians going from house to house for the
PuTpose of vaceinating the people. In New
York this is being done in view of the existence
of the small pON, and the health inspectors
working without pay, the health officer regard
ing the health of the city of more importance
than mere pecuniary considerations.

The Piedmont and Potomac Rail.
rOad-SO-t allied.

Tie Washington correspondent of the Balti-
more Sun, speaks of lOoseness exhibited at
the late election in the fact
% That over half million of dollars were
voted To corporation called the Potomac and
Piedmont railroad, which il turns out barely
has corporation existence under an old act of
the Virginia IL gislature to which not a dollar
ct stock has been subscribed or bonds negoti
atCd, and not even the right of way secured.
be road has no corporate existence whatever
IL The District OF Columbia. This subsidy was
3 . ned 10y imposing on intelligent white voters
that the Pennsylvania Central Railroad Com
pduy intended TO build the road, while cOlOTed
voters who could not read the tickets they voted
were used 10y hundreds in its favor. The repre-
sentatives Of the PennSy lvanis road deny all
Know edge of the Piedmont and Potomac road,
and iCok upon il as mythical. Steps have al

IL l. quite time the Legislature Overhauled
this Piedmont railroad business. II would be
Interesting TO ascertain just who the parties are
who arc lobbying for this $500 600; what portion
will go TO build the road and what to the lobby
lists, how much will be absorbed for election
expenses" the printing of g. 900 tickets, the
employ ment Of canvaSsers, issuing posters, send
ing out advertising wagons, with bands, and all
the various appliances freely used in behalf of
the subsidy on election day? Not a ticket was
prOcurable in opposition to the subsidy and the
idea was industriOusly circulated by the lobby
lists that the scheme was a feature of the policy
OF the District government. and that to CD
pose it was to oppose the District government.
This representation a bare-faced false
hood, as the District government took no part
in the matter. Yet despite these lobby appIi-
snces the suspicion amongst the voters that all
was not right exhibited itself in the fact that
the vote in favor of the subsidy fell many thous-
ands short of that for the loan. The project has
now TO go to Congress for endorsement, and il is
to be trusted that il will not get through that
body until the status of the company is investi-
gated, and it is compelled 10 give proper liens

LAWLESSNESS IN MISSISSIPPI.
BrutaI AssassinatiOn. A


[From the New Orleans Republican, March 81
Some weeks ago we reported the condition OF az
fairs in Summit, Miss, ana the lawlessness
existing there. The challenge of DR.. Ferguson by
young Pryor Hurst and the shooting and danger
ously wounding OF the former by the latter in q
street rencOntre was embraced in the report. DR..
Ferguson was seriously wounded that he has not
yet recovered, but young Hurst was thirsting for
somebody's blood ana that insane thirst has been
appeased, as we learn by passengers who arrived
on the jackson railroad train from Summit yester-
day.
it appears, according to the information from the
parties referred TO, that Prusslan laborer named
Unlacke was an active sympathlzer with DR.. Fer
guson at the time OF the street conflict between the
Hursts and Ferguson, mis- sympathies extending SO
Last Monday Unlacke was working as gardener
for Colonel Garland, but requiring the advice OF the
latter on some matter left his work and went after
the Colonel. Not succeeding In finding him, Unlacke
Hurst, who accOsted Uniacke and asked him II he
was armed Unlacke replied that he was not,
whereupon Hurst struck him blow in the face
with cane, ard then, before Unlacke could re-
revolver and shot him through the head.
Unacke fell dead, but even after that Hurst fired
and lodged four balls In the body of the man already
weltering in his blood. Hurst, whose reputation
for bravado and desperation had previously over
awed the single policeman OF the town, quietly
walked away, nourlshlng his pistol and defying ar
rest, and thus he escaped. With the mark OF q
cowardy murderer on his brow he has departed
from Summit but is hoped that he may yet be
rested, brought justice and be compelled to suffer
for his offences IL Is lawlessnesS like this which
furnishes the good name not only OF summit but Of
other towns in Mississippi and the South. 1t Is q
arrest murderer but all permit him to escape
alive.
