THE GUyERNoRsHIP.-Thea attack in Eeery
Eoening on Saturday upon Di. Jump is one Of
the meanest that has come uIder our notice tor
a long time. The TRADE in regard to Messrs.
Pickles and Gallagher is the merest nonsense;
the representation in regard to the feeling in
Sussex is wholly nnwarrantcd and the reference
10 the importation of foreign labors is not only
mean but libell,us The movement to import
iaborers originated in desire TO procure add-
tional help on the farm and In the house, the
supply at that time being unequal to the de-
maud, aud no one desired 'to turn the blacks
out to staIve," as that paper asserts. On the
contrary Dir. Jump has contributed at all times
to improve the condition of the colored people
as well as the condition of the white laborers
For years be has given his time and also medi
cine in many cases without reward or hope OF
reward, and many of the poor of both races
have reason to bless him for his liberality and
kindness. Few men stand higher 10 the esli.
nation of the cou munity In which he resides
and this attempt TO injure him must recoil on
the Leads Of those making it.

A DEFENDER OF IGNORANCE. The Gazette
Is opposed to making any provision for the oil
ucation of the colored children of our State
This is in keeping with the refusal Of the Leg
islature to enact a law taxing colored persons
to Iaise funds for school purposes. To prove
that ignorance is not SO greatly disadvantageous
to the community, 1t cites the various defalca-
tions and robberies perpetrated by educated
men, leading TO the impression that education
was the cause of their delinquency. 1t also re-
fers to New York prisons to show that only q
small proport ion OF the convcts cannot read
aud write Such all effort 10 depreciate the ad-
vantlges of education we have rarely seen, and
we had not the least idea that any one In this
community could be so stupid as 10 thus cham
pon and defend tine perpetuation of ignorance
and barbarism. The next step we suppose will
be an attack ON The churches as a useless tax
upon the "toiling farmer and scantily paid
white laborcr," on the ground that the posses
sion of a few dollars is more important than
religious as well as educational training.

In commenting on the successes of the Demo-
cratic party In the late election, and the present
posture OF that party, the New York Nation
makes the following observations
I'm judging the Democrats we are willing
to make all possible allowances for them, but
trust that men like Messrs. Tilden and Thurman
and Bayard see what and how great these allow
ances have to be- and how heavy is the task
before them. Undoubtedly, the alliance
OF ub cDleIs VIII uen ilhe moIiiseey anu
OBrien, and the appearance OF men like
Jimmy Hayes on it's tickets. are great
scandals; but they are inevitable scandals 30
long as the voting population OF New York re-
mains what it ID. John Kelley had to take
Hayes in order to prevent his whole organiza-
ton from going to pieces, and probably took
him after getting rid Of half-a-dozen others
just as bad. Any party which gets the vote Of
this city must do these things. Murphy, Bliss
and Davenport would do exactly these things
il they could gain anything by them. In fact,
they had all but agreed to nominate Jimmy
O'Brien for the Mayoralty in 1872, and the
difference between O'Brien and Hayes is one
not visible to human eye. The people in
New York, in short, is largely led by criminals

roughs share OF the patronage"
