TO provide for She pSstponement of said Con-
vention until after the August elections.
The Avalanche and appeal both join in
this request. The editor of the Brown or

his innocent white readers to marry their
daughters to "niggers," The old saying

aged at the prospects of triumph over Re-
publicanism. Well, one thing is very GER
tain, and that is, that whoever wins in
1872, Democracy aUiU not. If Democrats
can humble themselves enough to tramp
their old flag in the dirt and follow Oh
neekIy and upitedly after a few liberal
Republicans, joining heartily in singing
" John Browns body" &C., they stand a
slim chance of putting some Republican
in the White House next November.
This would be victory through deep
abasement and humiliation, and it may
seem something to rejoice over to some
Democrats. 1t wouldn't to us, if we were
one. We know, however, that some Demo
cratic editors will do this, for their meas
ure of victory in most eases seems to be in
proportion to the depth of their humilia-

THAT PACKED COURT.

The enemies of the President have per-
sistently charged that the Supreme Court of
the United States was packed by the APP
pOintment of Justices Strong and Bradley
for the purpose reversing the first decision
of that Court in what is popularity known
as the " Legal Tender Case" The charge
was serious one, and doubtless awakened
serious thoughts in many minds. The
New York Nation anti-administratiOn
dwelt upon it recently with great force.
IN it's last issue, however, it contains an
important correction, coming from eX-At-
tOrney General Hoar, of Massachusetts,,
who tells the editor that his charge is I'M
Just, as he has good cause to know for after
considerable consultation the appoint
ment of Justices Strong and Bradley was
decided upon by the President and Cabi
net before the Legal Tender decision was
made or its import known. Thus is author
itatively disposed of another serious charge
that has long stood. 1t shows how content
the President is, to leave the general re
suits of his administration to speak for him.
The thousand ISLANDERS that are hurled
against him one by one fall as the truth
becomes known.
THE NEW ORLEANS CoLoRED CONVENTION.
The resolutions adopted by the colored
men of the nation in their recent Conven-
tion at New Orleans, as part of the po-
litical history of the day, are worthy of
more attention than is usually given to
political platforms. They show that the
colored men of this country are honest
enough and intelligent enough to speak
out fearlessly and ably in behalf of their
race They admire President Grant for
his consistent devotion to their cause and
for the practical evidence he has given
that he believes in their right to share in
the administration of Il government for
which they have fought and labored, and
they, therefore, endorse his Administra-
ton.
1t has been the custom with many po-
litical writers to consider the colored
voters of the nation as an element
without reason or principle. Politicians
have dealt with them as voters for sale to
the highest bidder, and men having no
intelligent convictions ON public questions,
This class will have trouble, we think, in
reconciling such Judgment of them with
their manly and earnest endorsement of
Charles Sumner, who by some of his recent
public acts has placed himself in opposi-
ton to the great majority of his party.
They have the consistency and courage
TO endorse him nevertheless. We honor
them for it. Whatever differences we may
have with Senator Sumner, we can never
shut our eyes to his lifelong and able
service in behalf of Republican principles.
We would think the colored people of this
country unworthy of political rights if
they were unmindful of the debt they owe
Charles Sumner.

THE POWER OF INTEREST.

Philosophizing upon the tendency Of the
high rate of interest to concentrate in few
hands the money power OF the land. aud to
show that lending money is the most profta-
BILE business n the world, the Boston Travet-
Ter makes this easily understood illustration,
which may be advantageously studied by
young men who are thinking of getting rich
1.-Two mechanics just come Of age are good
workmeu and DESTROYS of becoming rich.
Each is able to earn a dollar day over and
above his expenses. Every six months they
invest the money thus earned at seven per
cent. interest, the interest payable half year
". These men earn an average of dollar
day besides their expenses 300 days in each
year during forty years and iouc months.
Each earns by labor $500 per year for forty
yea1s, OF, for the whole period, $l2,l20-to-
gether $4,000. But the interest on their
returns, loaned half yearly, for the period OF
forty years aud four months, doubling at sew
en- per cent. paid and reinvested half yearly,
in ten years and four months amounts to
S1O4 $50, 10, which added to the amount Of
S24 200 earned by their labor makes the ag
SreEato SIZC, loU,1U. i He ihlefeSt ou the
sum s24 200 earned by their labor is Sl04,-
$50 ,70-more than four and quarter times
greater than the amount they have earned by
their labor.
"Suppose the two men to live twenty
years aud two mouths longer, that is to the
age Of eighty-one years and six months, and
continue to loan their money. During this
period it would double twice, making the to-
tai accumulation in sixty years and six mouths
s315 002,80 The two men do not labor du-
ring the hast twenty years, aud two months
and expend of tn lr income for living during
th9t period SIS 002, 80, leaving to their heirs
100000 In forty years and four months
they earn by their labor $24, 200 and live
twenty years aud two months on their money
without labor. Subtract the money earned
| BY labo, 81 200, aud the remainder aecu-
muated by interest is S475 800. Now not
one dollar of this S475 800 is earned by the
labor Of these men. 1t is the legal interest
upon $4,000. These men live laborously
aud work for a worry moderate compensation.
They take only the legal rate of interest.
Neither do they enter into any speculations.
