about the next President he may or
may not be Grant. We do not know of
man who is better approved by the
American people. But it is by no means
certain that he would consent to run for a
third term, or that he would succeed if
he did. Our present purpose is to assure
the imported writer's for the New York
Herald that we shall endeavor to get up
something original when We do change
our government, and not go back to the
stupid Romans, inferior in every way to
the Americans, to borrow one Of their
very worst examples.

ALLEGED ILL TREATMENT OF F.PATIEETS
AT QUARANTINE.

A gentleman, who gives US his name
and the names of his witnesses, informs
US that there is screw loose at the
Quarantine station. As the story comes
to US, there is frightful mortality among
the patients who are landed from ascend

for the attention Of the Board Of Health,
perhaps fo- the Governor. We will cheer
fully give all the information we have to
those who desire it, SO that justice may
be done, and no one suffer wrongfully,
either in health or reputation.

Charles Z. Thomas. Esq.

On Friday last this young lawyer was en-
gagged as assistant to A. g. Riddle, Esq, in the
case ofSam. Rainey, colored, charged with the
murder Of ]. A. Tucker. While there was
strong probability Of the Guilt Of the priso-
ner, the evidence was wholly circum3tanttal.
Mr. Riddle crosS-examned the witness and
Mr. Thomas closed the case for the defence
in plea which, according to a witness, was
severely legal, able, anl convincing. At the
close District Attorney Harrington consulted
with the Judge and expressed his willingness
to fnraqo the charrp Of murder and agree 10
4 verdict. OF manslaughtcr This was 4 viz
tuai triumph for the defence, and has tic ef-
fee, Of saving the neck Of Raincy.
Mr.. Thomas does not get at tho hands Of
the daily press that recognition for his ability
in handling this case which he deserves. He
is the regular Republican candidate for the
House in the Fifth district, a nomination
whose LEGALITY has been Endorsed By the Cen
trail Committee II Is proposed, however,
we understand, by few men who hate Mr..
Thomas for his manly stand with regard to
school rights, to nominate new man, pro-
cedure at once illegal and totally AT variance
with all sense Of honor
Men who met in secret caucus with
Democrats to sell out the Republican party
are now ready to sacrifice Mr.. Thomas be-
cause he is an educated and rising young
lawyer and because he is a eoIored man. If
the colnred voters of the Fifth district do not
stand by one of their own men, when he is
thoroughly competent, legally nominated and
indorsed, they deserve to he led like lambs to
the political slaughter, and become the will
ing tools Of designing men. Some Charles
&. Hall comes out in letter against Mr..
Thomas, calling him tic candidate Of the
Black Mans party, and says Mr.. Thomas is
not identified with the working man 3 inter-
ests. Mr.. Thomas is not even a member of
the Equal Rights League, (if he were there
would be no doubt of his election, and GER
tainly is as much working man in the best
sense Of the term as this Mr.. Hall. whoever
he may he .
