TIE OPPOSITION.

a meeting Of tho Campaign Ward Committees
was held at Opposition headquarters yesterday.
It proved to be stormy soason, and charges Of
bsd faith on tho part Of several in their work
woro freely made. Tho Secretary waa uut-
spoken md gave Boyoral such reprimantlB as to
da1npon their enthusiasm. Some Of tho charges
wore OF SERIOUS typo. and led to tho dlsplacc-
lnent of the accused, and tho appointment OF
substitutes.
Tho roports from the several districts and
wards wore OF tho most satisfactory character,
aud, dcspito the little "onpicaaantnoss in tho
carly part Of tho sosaion, good fecling appeared
to provail
Tho attendance Of colorot people around tho
headquarters is increasing oyory day, which
King, WHO claims to po King OF tho tribe, says
means TINT tho colorod troops will fight brayoy
when tho time comes. Politics make strange
associations. II tho Opposition receives tho
colored vote of the city and county, as they
cnfcnato, it will bo no moan accession to the ir
ranks.
In tho Twelfth Ward tile place Of voting in
the Fourth Precinct has been changed from IS
Kanana to DO Nebraska street.
In tho Fiftcenth Ward the yoting-plac has
been changed from 2o7 Ailwauko avenue to tho
Engine-uousa.

The trouble in the Third Ward over Alderman
assumed now phase yesterday. Some Of tho
Opposition and opponents OF tho regular nomi-
noe aee thinking Of bringing ont Nh independents

circles NJ trick OF tho enemy.
Many who heretofore have loafed nround
Republican headquarters were 1ninglng with tho
Opposition yesterday. No roal sgniiioancos il

REPUBLICAN HEADQUARTERS.
Notwithstanding tho iuclomonoy OF tho weather
yesterday morning, the Republican headquarters
presented lively appearance. Tho attendance
Of candidates WAS large. and tho army Of familiar
faces identified with Baloon-politcs in tho soy
oral wanls WAS erodtable In nu1nLora ut least.
THO Executive Committee commenced its daily
Boasion, with small attendance, at 10 o'clock,
under lock aud key The mcagre representation
waH attributable more to tho arduous lauora OF
many membors on Sunday ratbor than want OF
enthusiasm or Interest in tho cauee.
A largo portion Of tho Commi!teo's timo was
absorbod in arranging tho

aud In appointing tho necessary Dlsison and
Ward Committees. An examination Of tho Cona-

that the public expenditure of the
colony is excessive: yet by a wise econ
omy ditojs probable that the needful
expenditure could be met. Other sug-
g~estions present themselves, but must
be rejected, either because they lack the
quality OF justice, because they would
inflict too heavy a burden for the backs
IN their present weak condition, to bear,
or because they would be too despotic
for Englishmen to submit to. It might
be urged that the possessors of mountain
land unsuited for cane cultivation should
be compelled to plant it. Such would
IN effect be robbing the mountain pro-
p%rietors for the benefit Of planters on
the plains. 1t might be urged that for
each acre of canes cultivated a certain
portion should be devoted to wood. This
would infict a needless burden on some
OF the estates composed only of cane
land. 1t might be enacted that as
abandoned estates, when covered with
grass are more clou~d-repelIent than
cane fields, that the possessors of oil
abandoned estates should be compelled
to plant a portion of them under penalty
OF sale tor the cost ofsuch planting. Such
a course seems needIessly harsh, at any
rate at first.
The writer has written plainly, with
the hope of drawing the attention to this
subject, of persons of greater experience
and more local knowledge than he pos
sesses. The general adoption of rain
gauges in the island is an indication that
the question of the rainfall is now con-
sidered important but the registration
Of the rainfall taken alone resembles the
action of an invalid who should employ
his time in feeling his pulse, whilst ne
gIecting all means of curing the disease,
which left unchecked, will result in
CERTAIN DEATH.

CLASS JOURNALISM.
from the Dcmerora Royal Gazette

1t is stated that our defunct contempt
Tary the Creole is about to take a new lease
OF life. So far as we are concerned we are
quite ready to welcome back our old op-
ponent. Although this is not much of a
reading community there is room, we think,
Tor three newspapers, and no doubt the
Creole may look for a fair amount of sup
port provided it starts upon a proper basis,
and looks for support to the only reliable
portion OF the community, the educated
classes. The paper was originally started
by the late Mr.. Brathwaite, and protested
to be, and was the exponent of the wants
and wishes of the coloured population.
Himself a man of colour, Mr.. Brathwaite
fought with singular ability for the people
OF his own race. But long before he died
he was compelled to own that he had been
treated generously by all save them, whilst
from them he got nothing but empty COM
pIlments, and promises never intended to
be fulfilled. Those who are now endea-
vourlng to revive the paper have no doubt
profited by experience, and may be sup
posed to look to the respectable portion
OF the community for support rather than
to noisy villagers and .talkative blacks,
whose aversion to work is only equalled
by their desire to talk, and who, were they
halt as willing to "put their shoulder to
the Wheel" as they are to grumble, might
be prosperous, happy, and contented.
