Repudiation and Extortion.

Senator John Sherman, who lSnow
defending with great zeal the bond
holder and his bonds, and who after
ward voted in 1869 that the five
twenty bonds should be paid in gold,
wrote from his seat in the United
States Senate, March 20, 1868, as fol
lows:
Ithink the bondholder violates
his promise when he refused to take
the same kind of money he paid for
the bonds. If the case is to be tested
bv the law, | am right; if it is to be
tested by Jay Cookies advertisements,
l am wrong. hate reputation, Or
ANYTHING like it, but we ought not to
be deferred from doing what is right
by fear of undeserred epithcts; If,
under the law as it stands, the hold
ers of the fiye-twenties can only be
paid in gold, then we are regulators
# we propose to pay otherwise. If
the bondholder can legally demand
only the kind of money he paid, then
he is 4 repudiator and cxtortioner to
demand money more valued than he
gives. Truly yours,
JOIN SHERMAN"

School Election.

This important election will occur
on Friday, august 18th. But little
interest seems to be manifested in
regard to it. This is all wrong, be-
cause it is an election, that every vo-
ter is deeply interestedin. We have
a County Superintendent of Schools
to elect, Boards of Education to Sc
lect for the several Districts of the
county, and Trustees to elect for each
school sub-district; and to vote for
Power to Levy" We trust that
every voter in Lewis District, and
throughout the whole county, will
comsaeskDn the day of election and
east his vote for @Power to Levy"
and.for none but good men to Eli the
various. school offices. The whole
matter is with the people, and it is
for them to say whether our schools
shall be a success, by putting intelli-
gent, upright and honest, enterpris-
ing men in Office, and men who are
known to be avowcd and firm friends
to Free Schools. If bad men, who
have no interest in our schools, are
selected, it is unreasonable to expect
that any good can come out of their
election.
In Lewis District, we appcal to the
voter to elect men to fill the Board,
who can rise above their petty polit-
ical feelings, inthc selection Of teach
crs for our schools.

Another step has been taken in
the legal controversy between the
Government of the United statesand
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
Company for the possession Of the
Harper's Ferry property. It may be
remembered that about a year and q
half ago the government filed bill
to eject the Baltimore & Ohio Rail
road from the property. Mr.. Garret
demurred to the Bill, and hearing
took place before Unitedstates Judge
jackson, at Clarksburg, W. Va, about
two months ago. The demurrer was
overruled and the defendant, the Bal
timore & Ohio Railroad Company,
given sixty days in which to put
in its answer. That answer has just
been filed in the Office Of the Attorn-
ey General. It is very long docu-
ment, covering nearly twenty pages
ofclosely written legal-cap paper.

The Colored Declaration OfInde.
ncNIcncC.

Fred Douglass and Professor Lanss-
ton. at the Fourth of July celebration
at Hillsdale, near Washington City,
went in, both of them, for cutting off
the horns of the wicked. They
wanted, hereafter, the white man to
let them alone. Douglass gave the
following description OF some Of their
professed white friends:
"Thcy are lawyers without clients,
broken-down ministers without
churches, wandering teachers with
out schools. They are great begsars.
They have the gift of begging down
10 a nicely. They are great in get
ting out circulars. They scatter
them broadcast over the land as leaves
before autumnal gales"
OF course these white bcggars are
after money, and what they get is
thus accounted for by Fred: "if it is
a hundred dollars, it is reduced to
about a hundred cents when it gets
to the poor black people," and he
protests against such ''second-rate
men" any longer begging for them.
Referring to the Freedman's Savings
Bank, be said:
"Our white friends tolds us that il
We had cents to bring them to them,
and they would take care of them,
and if we had dollars, or hundreds,
or thousands, also to bring them
They told US they had a goose and a
! golden egg. Yes, We put our mil.
lions there, but where are they now?
The men who went into that bank a
few years ago, poor men, are now
domiciled in beautiful homes, and
drive their fine turn-outs."
In conclusion he gave notice OF 4
dissolution of the old partnership
He said:
ave now bid an affcctionatc fare
well to all these plundcrcrs,and in the
future. if We need 4 Moses, we will
find him in our own tribes"
Professor Langston was equally
plain and severe in his remarks. He
asked: care We prepared to govern
ourselves, or do we need to be flank
ed by white men, the sclf-constituted
guardians Of the negro?' He had
small respect for the Atlanta, Georgia,
Convention of Republicans and Con-
gregationalists, which declared the
black man TO be failure as 4 Chris
tian, as citizen, as student, as a
teacher" He said the blacks had
'.plaved the second fiddle a little too
long" and he, that day, declared the
independence of himself and those
who thought with him Of such would
be-masterS:
THE hour has come when We must
throw off this yoke Of oppression, and
stand up for our rights as freemen.-
The signs Of the times demand that
we shall prove our fitness for all the
duties Of citizenship"
So the Fourth of July, 1875, gave
to the world another Declaration OF
Independence. Time must deter
mine whether it, too, shall be his
toric.

The New York Sun SAYS: after all
the resolutions of the Republican
party in favor of civil service reform,
and the public declaration Of the
President that the practice of levy
ing assessments on employees OF the
Governmentfor political purposes has
been entirely abolished; the clerks in
the departments and oflice-holders all
over the country arc being black
mailed as usual for the benefit Of the
Administration party, or for that of
political bummcrs who are in favor
at the White House. Not only this,
but the kitchen organ Of the Presi-
dent has the offrontcry to defend the
practice as perfectly proper, and says
that no good Republican who desires
the continued success of the party
will object to the circular ofEdmunds
now circulating for the object of Sc
curing contributions in the several
departments. 1t is pretended that
these contributions are voluntary;
but it is very well known that those
who receive the Edmunds circular do
not dare to withhold their tribute
Not only the men in the departments,
but the women also are compelled to
respond to the demand for black
mail. Some of these are poor widows
with the children of dead soldiers to
support; but that makes no differ
cnce, and if one is in the receipt of a
salary of 500 a month, twenty-five
dollars are seized by these political
sharks, while if even look ofdissat-
isfaction accompanies the forced con-
tribution, she knows that she is La
bic to be instantly discharged. Il
the salary these women receive is less
than 500 month, they are compell-
ed to deliver their money to the Sec
rotary of the Union Congressional
Republican Executive Committee in
the same proportion, no matter how
urgent their own needs may be-
Surely this is a dignifed business for
man to engage in who is styled
Judge," and represents a committee
with such pompous appcllation.

1t looks as if the hand OF retribu'
tive Justice was being laid with fear,
full effect upon the despoilers Of South
Carolina. The men who few years
ago were reveling in a sea of pillage
and plumber are now with scarcely an
exception being sold out by the sher,
if. A correspondent writing to the
New York Sun, from Columbia, S. c.,
gives the following list Of victims,
which the whirlgig of time has hurl-
ed from the pinnacle of ill-gotten
wealth to poverty and rags: John J.
Patterson, United States Senator
All his property, even to the costly
furniture Of his house is in the hands
of the Sheriff for sale. Elliott, color
ed, late NJ. C. and at present Speaker
of the House of Delegates. Every
thing even to his library is under at
tachment. Andrews, 4 State Sena-
tor; Charley Minert, colored, colonel
of militia; Purvis, colorcd, Adiutant
General, and J. L. Neagle, all have
the sheriff-s flag flying from their
Premises. All these men have been
instrumental in bankrupting South
Carolinaand impoverishing her peo-
pie. They each retain a home which
they made overin time to theirwives.
