The st. Louis Times Joins our neighbors

A FEW WORDS WITH OUR POLITICAL
FRIENDS.
The political horizon is now perceptibly
Frightening. There are indications on etery
hand that the long night which has en-
shrouded the country is about to dawn ia d
better future; that the party whose domina-
ton Las so rulnously afflicted the people for
many years stands upon the eve Of general
defeat and the verge of hopeless disorgan-
lzatlon, and that the Democratic party, still
strong In principle and unimpaired III vital
lty, Will at 10 distant day, be restored to
q jremacy in the country.
1t is peculiarly fitting occasion, there
fore, to make few practical suggestions 20
our Democratic friends with reference to
our mutual relations The Times, as is well
known, Is now the only morning daily in
81 LOUIS CT Democratic politics printed in
the English language, and so long as it ad
heres faithfully TO principle is clearly entl-
tled To the support of the party which it
represents. Hence our friends will pardon
us for urging them at this time, not only in
st. Louis, but elsewhere throughout Mis-
sour and the adjoining States, to make
united and constant efforts in response to
our iabors IN their behalf There is vast
work to be accomplished, and we depend in
great measure upon the sinews OF strength
furnished by our Democratic supporters for
the efficiency and completeness with which
that work is performed

The VrgInius-Probable Action Of the
| Government.
Little is known in official quarters con.
| eerning the circumstances of the capture of
the Vlrginius by the Spanish man of W ar
! Tornado. and, therefore, the course of the
! administration is not yet defined.
Further information is awaited from our
| consul AT Santiago, who will act in coniunc
| ton with the consul general at Havana,
| upder the Instructions of the Department
| of State. 1t will be recollected that within
| the past two years this vessel was protected
| in several foreign ports from the designs of
| the Spanish men-ofwar and conveyed to
sea, on the ground that her papers as an
American steamer were in perfect and legal
order.
1t was maintained by our minister resi-
dent at Columbia, while the Virginius was
lying at tlfe port of CallaO and was
menaced by the Pizarro that the only
tangible matter capable OF proof appeared
to be that she ran the blockade of Cuba
with an armed party of Cuban revolution
lists and cargo of munitions of war. pro-
| ceeding frem some port in Venezuela, and
making landing in the eastern depart
ment of Cuba. This act has since been re.
peated by that vessel.
The law, as he understood it, being that
although the ship during such voyage was
liable TO capture and could and would not
be reclaimed by the United States, such
liability ceased when the lawful voyage
was completed and no faint attached to
the ship Which would in any way Justify the
forcible seizure and detention by Spanish
cruisers In that state of affairs.
If the ship presented herself in a neutral
port with her papers in regular form, it
could not be permitted that she should be
captured in such neutral waters or upon the
high seas for past act of blockade running.
He did not admit it to De an off-nse against
the neutrality laws Of the United States to
charter steamer for the purpose named
from Venezuela to Cuba. It certainly was
not an offense for which Spain was entitled
to capture the steamer, except in the act
1t does appear from the diplomatic cor
respendence that our government dissented
from these views, and it is therefore prOba-
BILE they will govern in the present case,
and care will be taken to be satisfied on all
the points now involved, the subject being
one which excites the closest interest.

Lieutenant Governor Antoine. ,

Nay, never growl because the fagon is black
| look at the sack within"
Lieutenant Governor Antoine, with all
the disadvantages OF birth, being born at a
time when colored men were simply looked
upon as chattels, did not long remain in OBJ
scurity after the privileges OF his people were
obtained. He came at once to the front in
political life, first to be Senator, and won
his wav to the high position he now holds
with so much credit and honor. Our inter-
course with him in his official capacity has
always been pleasurable. He bears his
honors meekly, and has proved himself a
gentleman of considerable discretion and
ability. During the absence OF Governor
Kellogg. while he was urbane and courteous
to all, he was trm and determined at all
times to do his duty manfuly, in spite of
those who thought by undue pressure and
newspaper ridicule to gain unworthy ends.
He passed unnoticed al attacks upon him,
and in every instance proved himself supe-
rior to his assailers.
Governor Kellogg showed his usual good
Judgment and knowledge Of character when
he left the government in the hands OF Mr..
Antoine, for it gave that gentleman an op-
portunity to show to the ''oldest and best,'
as well as tie community generally
that representative of the colored race
could direct the affairs of State with .iudg-
ment, moderation and urbanity, and that
our popular institutions viii not suffer in
the hands of people who have in few
short years after cruel bondage shown
more ability and forbearance than many of
the so-called ''our people" ever possessed.
The reins Of government are now in the
hands OF OUT esteemed Governor, w. P.
Kellogg, who has returned to US from his
Northern tour in good health and spirits.
The Lieutenant Governor is now relieved
from the anxieties and responsibilities of
the gubernatorial chair, and can now enjoy
the otttsm cum dignitate of his office of Lieu
tenant Governor He has secured host of
friends. who have learned to honor and
respect him in his private as well as his pnb-
lie career.
