Mr.. Sumner evidently feels the force
of Speaker Blaine's letter, and has
made reply reiterating his first letter,
but does not allude to the democratic
record which Mr.. Blaine holds up SO
squarely to view. against his position.
BY slip, probably, Mr.. Sumner lets
out an important confession. In case
there should be democratic Congress,
then he will depend upon The republican
members to act with the liberal repub-
licans who he says, Il trust will not
betray the cause I'll So Mr.. Sumner
confesses that the republicans are true
to the cause now and hopes they will not
"betray" it hereafter, while he goes off to
fight Grant on pure personal animosity
How many republicans propose to fol-
low to aid him on such an errand How
many propose to take the risk of DEM
ocratie Congress, when they all know
that Congress will have more power over
the country than the president, for proof
of which see history of Andrew John.

MIR. Summers Letter.

Mr.. Sumner came out in letter last
week, urging the colored people and re-
publicans to support Horace Greeley.
His letrer would almost fill this entire
page, and SO of course we can't print it
with the present amount Of political mat
ter pressing upon our limited space.
We shall therefore have to state It's sub
stance and tenor in the strongest manner
because we print elsewhere the more brief
reply of Speaker Blaine.
Mr.. Sumner again holds up to view
the San Domingo scheme same as in his
speech against Grant just before the
Philadelphia convention, and all just
as though somebody was advocating that
measure, and as though the president
had not honorably carried out his pledge
not to attempt to enforce any policy
against the will of the people.
The main point of Mr.. Summers letter
however is that the election of Mr.. Gree
ley is simply a perpetuation of republi.
can principles, absolute and entire
much more so than it would be to elect
Grant that Horace Greeley is the same
republican now that he ever was and
that in all respects the colored people
would receive full and ample protection
from his administration, and that
at is also idle to say the election
of Horace Greeley as president, with
Gratz Brown as vice president, both un
changable. republicans, will be the re
turn of the democratic party to power
On the contrary it will be the inaugura
ton of republican principles under the
safeguard of republican president anc
a republican vice president, with the
democrats as avowed supporters.
Mr.. Sumner goes further and urge
the most radical republican views, ant
so strongly does he urge this point tina
many of Mr.. Greeley's friends are fear
full it will drive off some of his demo
cratic supporters. In fine Mr.. Sumne
claims that the election of Mr.. Creole,
will be no return of rebels or democrat
TO power but purely republican. He al
so rehearses the democratic cry Q
" nepotism." This will be found ar
swered in full in Senator Conkling'
speech on first page.
y
Having thus stated the strongest point
of Mr.. Summers letter, it will be hardl
necessary to call attention to the briefel
but most complete response of SpeaKe
Blaine.

Campaign Personalities.

We have two or three communica-
tions on our table which impel us to say
a word as to the manner of conducting
the present presidential campaign. We
do not propose to attack Horace Greeley
ersonally. Calling him all sorts of
bad names will do no good and would
prove injurious to the Union republican
cause. Our cause is so strong that it
has great abundance of reason, facts,
history, truth and common sense, as a
source from which to draw aud increase
its strength and usefulness. But, strong
as it is, it is not strong enough to stand
the strain of attacking its opponents with
coarse abuse and personal defamation
Now, then, let good nature AMI good
temper prevail, and all hands to the
front for constant and untiring work fol
the grand old Union and Liberty cause
which we all so much desire to continue
in the hands Of its friends, and not tC
place in those OF its life long enemies.

The August Elections.

NORTH CAROLINA IN DoUBT--A REPUB-
LIoAN GAIN OF OVER 1000.
At the last State election in North
Carolina the democrats swept the State
by over 5000 majority. The first returns
of the election held on Thursday of last
week indicated that the State had gone
democratic by from 5000to 10000 major
ity. Later returns, however, have chang
ed all this, showing that the republicans
have gained over 1000, and that if the
democrats have carried the State it is
by very small majority. On recep-
ton of first reports the democrats over
the country burnt considerable saltpetre
but later, have made more distinct allu
sions to sulphur.

Greeley state Conventions.

Two Greeley State conventions assem-
bled at Burlington on Thursday of last
week. The Liberal" wing numbered
about 100 and the old democracy had
few more.
The liberals were called to order by
Charles Clement OF Rutland. an er Y. s.
Assessor, who was chosen temporary pres
ident, and j. X. Mclean of Rutland and
E. III. Wiley were elected secretaries.
Daniel Roberts of Burlington was cho-
sen permanent president, w. III. Albee
of Springfield, vice president.
After the organization, a dispatch was
read that North Carolina was going
democratic by 10000 majority. [Alas
for human calculations
The following were elected

The CoIored Mans Response.

Fred. Douglas, the greatest colored
orator of America, made strong speech
for Grant and Wilson, at Raleigh, just
before the North Carolina election, from
which we make the following extract:
Now, after ten years of passion, of
fire, wrath and fury, ten years of fierce
sanguinary rebellion, what we want is
peace-peace, security, quiet. How shall
we have it? How can we have it, unless
we have firm, steady, quiet, unimpassion-
ed clear headed, clear-sighted men at the
helm of the State. Such man we have
in Ulysses S. Grant. tremendous APP
plause) a man who can say, with our
martyred President, that he has !" malice
toward none and charity toward all. !"
| know Ulysesses S. Grant. 1t may
seem TO you boast on my part that /,
negro-that |, with fiat nose, distend-
ed nostrils-should be an acquaintance
of the President of the United States.
Yet | am. And let me tell you another
thing; never was received by any gen.
tleman in the United States with more
conhdence-never felt more at home in
the presence of any gentleman-than |
have in the presence of Ulysses S. Grant,
He is good man, true man, steady
man. You know what he is to-day,
what he was yesterday, and what he will
be tomorrow, for he does not turn with
wind of doctrine, and for that reason we
want him. For that reason / am going
for him, and for that every colored man
and every white man in this glorious
old North State should go for him, by
going for the regular republican ticket
without bolts, without splits, without
erasures by going for it unitedly and
strong, and on the LIST of August you
will assure the country and assure your
selves of the continuance of steady i'm
provement in our national affairs a
points where they have been most troub
led. But it is said you won't go bach
on your old friend Greeley. You won
desert HIM, can't desert Horace Greeley
Our answer is, that Horace Greeley ha
deserted us; has deserted the part,
which has made the country what it is
and is making it what it ought to be
No, 1 am no deserter. When a maj
leaves you, it is your duty to stick t,
principle, instead of to the man."

Politics at Brat,leboro.

Politics at Brattleboro is raging warm
er than at any previous time since 1904.
The Greeley folks had flag raising on
Saturday evening. 1t was not very
much of a success. They got up some
very good cheers-considering the num-
Der they had to make them. They then
formed procession six feet long land
a gentleman informs us that by actual
count there were fifteen in it besides the
band They did better in the Hall,
where they were addressed by very ex-
cellent elderly gentleman from Whining
ton, who began his speech in the mid
die and worked both ways-fnally de-
claring that Henry Wilson was the best
man on either ticket A liberal re-
publican left the hall late Saturday
evening and on Monday afternoon was
under the impression that the speech
had not been concluded.
The Grant and Wilson men organized
a club Monday evening and on Tuesday
evening had a rousing meeting and were
addressed by Judge Poland.
During the day of Saturday the Brat
tleboro Greeley club sent to a democrat
of Greenfield, Mass, for speaker, to
which he responded that no one could 60
on so short notice. They then tele-
graphed to " Send Hopkins" to which
the Greeley man replied =" Can't-Col-
onel is for Grant"

KENTUCKY.

At the city election in Louisville on
Monday, the democratic and Greeley
ticket was defeated by a large majority,
and in Lexington the republican ticket
was carried on the same day by $40 ma
jority. This is pretty good for Kentucky,
though of course no one expects that the
State will go republican.

You cannot forget, Mr.. Sumner, how

you conferred with me in regard to the
possibility of having your Civil Rights
Bill passed by the House. 1t was intro

and faetious hostility of the Democrat

it to come to a vote. Two intelligent
colored members from South Carolina.
