The Neoro Vote in the Last Election,

1t is to be noted also that this election marks
ap epoch OF no small Significance In the history OF
coiored outrage in Kentucky. The manner III
which that vote was split up and scattered, the
animas with which 1t YVES cast, and the pslpable
efects 1t has had on the results on Fayette,
franklin Jessamine, ana other counties of Central
Kentucky, plainly presage that the Republican
party eau never again colcu'ate with any certainty
upon welding it US unit, as they have done
hitherto. On the contrary, the dumb, driven cat
tie seem to have broken away from their kespers,
and having tasted the sweets in politics and III
political action, II not be likely again to sub
NIT themselvt body and soul to such ignoble and
utterly selfish tyrants as have ruled them for the
last four years. Jn fact, it may we'll be hoped,
from present appearances hereabouts, that many
more Intelligent colored people are at last
beginning to tind Gut that their real and best
friends nre their former owaers and present pro.
prietors OF the soil, the Democratic, who tell the
