WILL FIGURES LIE?


Maj Kelly, Of the Fredericksburg Her
a5d, has put on his figuring cap to elect
kemper. The numerals below give the
result, which the Enquirer suggests should
be carefully considered, although that
paper fell in its allowance of white repub-
licans from $4,000 to 5000 in about two
days:
s'There are in the State according to the
last census about 100000 white voters to
about 10000 colored, which gives the
whites an excess Of 40, 1000, which they un-
doubtedly have. Of the white vote the
Radicals will poll about $4,000 out of the
10000 which will probably be cast OF
the colored vote about 5000 will through
the various appliances, be brought to the
polls; which is in exact proportion accord
ing to population as compared with the
white vote. Ninety thousand Of the col
ored vote will go for Hughes and three
thousand for Kemper Add the 1900
colored voters to the 5000 whites, and
we have 10000 in round numbers for
Kemper. Add the $4,000 white to the
10000 colored votes and we give Hughes
lO7 00O-provlded full vote Of each par
ty goes to the polls. It will be seen by
our calculation, which we think fair one,
that the Conservatives have marginal
vote OF 5000 to go upon, and we may safe
ly say General Kemper's majority will not
fall below the figures presented by us, but
will be rather above We'give to Hughes
5000 more whites than voted for Wells
in 1869, which we think will fully cover
the detection in that quarter, and upon
the other hand, we claim 5000 colored
votes for Kemper, which we believe is less
than the number who voted for Walker =
1t will be seen that this calculation gives
the Republicans $4,000 whites, but puts
down the registered colored vote at ITO, )
900, when it should be 10000. If we
are correct in this, and we think we are,
and the proportionate decrease insthe &C.
tually polled vote is kept up, it will give
the Republicans the majority. But the
Herald is mistaken in its supposition that
5000 colored votes will be cast for KEN
per. There wall not be 800. This con-
test is different from the Wells Walker
compaign. It is war upon the colored
race, and they will be driven almost as one
man to vote against the representative Of
the patty that makes the war. Besides,
the Republicans will poll not less than 3d.
600 white votes. It must be remembered
that the Republican party has been grad
ually and surely gaining strength every
day. A large number Of those who voted
for Greeley will vote for Hughes, while
there are not fifty in the State who voted
for Grant that will vote for Kemper, and
the stay -at-home vote last fall, if they come
out, will give a majority for Hughes.
While we ave not much faith in figures
before the election, and no great deal af-
ter, if they don't suit US, it is well enough
to show what may be reasonably said frtm
different stand-points. We think cur cor
lectures will come nearer being realized
than Maj Kelleys.

MAI. ED. MCMAHON.

The impression has been sought to be Gre
ated thas Maj. Ed. Mcmahon, whose name
was unsuccessfully presented to the Lynch
burg Convention FOR the nomination for the
position of Governor, would not support the
Republican ticket as presented by that 'boay.
In conversation with him a few days
ago, he ezpresAsa his purpose to give the
nominees of that Convention an earnest sup
port. His convictions lie de eper than mere
personal cnoice. Lie believes that the pros
perity of Virginia is intimately connected
with the success Of the republican party, and
SO believing, he will do all in his power to
secure its triumph Those who have
thought that Maj. NIcMahon would manifest
indifference in the result Of the election,
because he was not the nominee of the con-
vention, do not know the man. He is no
politician He never held or sought IAN Of
ice. He only gave his consent to the use of
his name before the Lynchburg Convention
after repeated and persistent appeals from
personal friends. He feels relieved that he
was not the nominee. and if the Republican
party can succeed, OF which he has no doubt,
in the coming election, he will be more than
gratiGed that Col. Hughes was nominated.
The conviction grows deeper with him every
day, that the welfare of Virginia lies in a
sincere and undisguised sympathy with the
national government, and the liberalization
Of the declared sentiment Of our people. He
believes the election Of the Republican tick
ct will give assurance of this, and hence his
purpose to give it d warm aed active sap
pOrt.

This is the kind Of trsaSpareEt demagoguery
that the Conservative press is forced to re-
sort to, to sustain their cause. Every intel
ligent man knows that, as a "class," Or race
the negro is the only labo7ing element this
country has ever had. He had been recog-
nizcd and utilized as peculiarly labor ele-
ment in the South, previous to his emancipa-
ton. From the foundation of our govern
ment he was regarded as suited to nothing
else. Although endowed by his Creator With
mind and soul, it was criminal offence tc
open up to his intellect the lights Of civilza
ton and christianity. u was crime in Vir-
GINA to teach him to read or write. He was
regarded asa chattel, beast Of burden, and
as much an instrument for labor alone, as the
mule, the oxen, the horse Or the wagon. 1t
was IN this regard that the 'aegso vas cousid
cred the "labosing class No other race OF
people were doomed 10 be "hewers of wood
and drawers Of water" in Virginia and the
South and it is a fragrant perverzion of the
meaning Of Col Hughes address to institute
comparison between the negro and the Ger
man and Irish races. Nothing Of the kind
was intended and no man who is DESTROYS OF
aiming at fair presentation Of the issues Of
this canvass, unless he is lamentably ignor-
ant, can place such construction on the Ian
guage above quoted. The truth Of the SEN
tence uttered by Col. Hughes is clear to the
most superficial understanding, for the negro
is the only "laboring class" we have ever
known, interpreted by race usage, and tradi-
tional occupation.

Free Schools in Virginia.

A late number Of the estate Journal said Of
the Conservative platform adopted by their gu
barnatorial convention recently in session in this
city
''There IS nothing noticeable in the platform
except the resolutions in favor of the canal and
Tree schools, Which are taken at second hand from
the Lynchoufg platform OF the Republican par
ty."
The Lynehburg slrgnian thereupon proceeds
in its own style to dispose of what it politely
characterizes as "a favorite and impudent asser-
ton Of the Radical press and speakers in this state
by asserting.
'sThis is slight error. The Radical platform
fails to say single word on the subject of edu-
cation. Virginia is indebted to the Conservative
party for system Of free schools which is far in
advance OF any in the south, especially in those
states which groan under the curse of Radical
manacles."
We now proceed to put the Virginian right on
the matter of the s'Radieal platform" failing to
''say single word on the subject of education"
The Republican platform, unanimously adopted
by the Republican state convention at LynehbaTg,
July 80, 1873, comm thus:
''rhe Republicans of Virginia, in state conven-
ton assembled, do now formally announce their
principles to the voters Of the commonw wealth.
They reafirm and reiterate their latform of1872
They endorse and approve the administration Of
President Grant in the past, and pledge it their
support for the future.
ssThey re-atirm and reiterate their platform Of
1872" and we iud the 9Th, 9th and 7th articles
of faith enunciated by the Republican party at
that time to be as follows:
IS. That well conducted and faithfully adj
minlstered system of free schools in pursuance of
the state constitution, whereby the children of
the people shall be universally educated, is
cardlal policy of the Republican party, and nee
essary to the well being of society; aud
means of securing an efficient management of the
free schools OF Vii ginia, favor the election of
school trustees by the people in such manner
that the minority we'll the majority may be
represented in the school boards"
70. That it is due to the superintendent of pub
lie instruction of Virginia that this convention
should express their approvalsof his late able re-
port, as giving earnest of his competency and fl
deity Of intention inthe discharge ofhis impor-
tant duties
THAT the so-caled conservative party of this
state, by its unjust laws and proscriptive spirit,
by Its attempts to hold the mass of the people in
ignorance, by its pernicous financial legislation
AID It's oppressive taxation, has forfeited al claim
TO the support of the people of Virginia and
has shown that party is unfit to exist which,
like it, Is organized on the principle Of political
and social prescription, and held together by no
common bond but that of hatred towards the ma
uonal government and its supporters

the truth of the old saying that to be

To vote for Greeley was to be a simon
pure Virginian, according to Conservative
logic, although Greeley was out-lawed by
Virginia as an iacendiary To vote for Grant,
according to the same authority, was to be a
scalawag, carpet-bagger, or negrophilist,
although Grant was true friend of Virginia,
when she needed one, and was so publicly
proclaimed by the present conservative can
didate for Attorre y-General representing
the Walker Committee of nine True Re.
publican- servative-Democratic party.
Common sense people will conclude that
it comes with bad grace from men who vo-
ted for Horace Greeley, with his record, to
stigmatize Virginans with the terms scala
wag and negrophilst for voting for Robert W
Hughes-one Of the abest native Virginians.
In the State Those who supported Greeley
ought to hang their heads 10 very shame.
when they want to defame men for voting for
Hughes.

Longstreet accepted the situation lmmedl-
atey after Che close of the war, and begged
the people Of Louisiana to join him, so as to
get the control Of their State affairs. They
refused; denounced him as traitor; would
have nothing to do with the national govern
ment, but scornfullJ and defanty stood aloof.
The Offices had to be filed, and Adventures
were the only persons to fill them. Conse-
quently, by their own action, the native whites
lost control. Now they attempt to blame the
government for their misfortunes, and stig-
Matte Longstreet as scalaway
Orr, of South Carolina, did the same thing.
He comprehended the situation at once, APP
pealed to the people to save themselves, Tut
they followed the example Of Louisiana, with
a like result. Those who manifested dis
position to conform their action to the laws,
and support the government, were instantly
recognized by the administration, and placed
in influential positions. Had their wise ac-
ton been followed by others, the federal and
state Offices would have been under their con-
troll. Who then is to blame for the carpet
bag" governments Of these States, bus the
people themselves?
These two examples illustrate the policy Of
the entire South. Whatever harm has be-
fallen them is 10 consequence Of their own
stubborn folly. The recognition Of Long
street and Orr, by the administration, shows
what would have been the disposition Of the
President towards all others, who truly meant
to accept the results of the war 10 good faith.
IF native accepted the situation and was
appointed to Office, he was instantly denoun-
ced as a scalawag and traitor TO his section.
IF no native would accept, and the office was
filed by non native, the administration was
denounced for imposing arpet-baggers
upon the people. Nothing would please
them.
In Virginia, Judge Rives, an accomplish
ed gentleman, and a pure private citizen, ae-
cepted the Judgship of this judicial Dis
trict. lie is denounced as a scaawag. IF
he had not accepted, and non native had
been appointed, the President would have
been held up to public scorn for daring to
Gil The Office and organizing the Courts, for
the appointee would have been ''carpet- bag
GER" Such is the consistency and the COM
mon sense of the far-seeing patriots who con-
stisute the leaders Of the Conservative par
ty.
Whenever white native Of the South has
recognized the results of the war, and decar-
ed his purpose to support the laws and the
government in good faith, the President has
recognized him, but all who are thus reeog-
nized are denounced as scalawags. IF the
logical policy Of these conservative gentlemen
were carried out, the Offices would not be fl-
ed at all, for the President could not be gull
ty Of plaeingiu official truss under the gov
eminent, men Mo at heart despise 1t.

AN IMpRUDENT SPEECH.

The Southern Historical Convention met
at the Montgomery White Sulphur Springs,
on the 18th. lust. The Convention was call
ed to order by Hon. John Letcher. Admi-
raj Semmes introduced Hon. Jefferson Davis
to the President Of the Convention and the
members; Gov Letcher delivered brief
welcome Of Mr.. Davis to the "honors, the
affections, and the hearts of the people of
Virginia" Mr.. Davis responded, compli-
menting Virginia, her men and above all, her
women. He spoke Of the principles of con-
stitutional liberty involved in the late war;
andcontended that they would yet triumph
that we 'had been cheated rather than con-
quered, by the President, the Generals, and
Congress, and could we have fcreseen the re-
suits of the surrender we would have been
free to day. Ills speech is said to have been
warmly applauded'
1t is earnestly toFbe hoped that Mr.. Davis
will make no more speeches. He does harm
to the Southern people every time he ex-
presses al opinion on the late war. The
principle" for which the South .conyended,
was the right of peaceable secession, and the
destruction Of the federal Union. That was
made the primal and controlling idea in the
contest. It was decided against us. The
Constitution Of the United States and the
Constitution Of Virginia have incorporated
in them the principle of national predomi-
nance. This has been recognized and adopt
ed by every State in the Union, and by Vir
GINA by vote Of 100000 to $500. 70 re-
assert what was decided in the late civil strife,
is to inaugurate war again. II MIR. Davis
remarks mean anything, they mean this
The idea is simply preposterous, and the ap-
piause, on the occasion. WIS IN baG taste, to

INDEPENDENT CANDIDATES

LIZ is amusing to notice the nervousness
that is manifested by the so.called conserva..
tlves at the bare mention Of independent
candidates" So much do they fear free
expression of popular sentiment and choice
that the recent State Convention was guilty
of the folly Of adopting the following gag
resolution
Mr. Phlegar, of Montgomery presented reso-
luton declaring that it is much the duty of eve
nv Conservative voter in the State to vote against
all independent canddat es who profess to be Con
servatives for the time being as it is his duty to
vote against the Radical nominees.
Was there ever such petty piece Of par
ty dcspotism before attempted? The idea
that few men assembled in Richmond should
take 1t upon themselves to issue mandate
to control the conscience and Judgment OF
the sovereign people of Virginia, is perfectly
ridiculous. They ought to have had sense
enough to know that such draconiaa law
would repulse from their organization the ;
manly independence Of the State King
caucus has lost his power. The peopls
think Tor themselves now, and will vote for,'
whom they please. We expect to see inde5
pendent candidates out all over the State
aud SO tar as our efforts are concerned we
shall direct them TO the election Of such if
they arc proper men. The people will turn
with contempt upon such miserable tyranny
as this resolution involves
