THE NEGRO AND HIS HYPOCRIT-
ICAL FRIENDS

The civil rights business is coming
home to plague its inventors. The
Radical Saturns are devouring their
children-''the wards Of the nation. !"
4 few days ago the body Of a c0lored
man was refused sepulture in the Mount
Morish cemetery, near Philadelphia.
This refusal caused much Indignation
among the cOlOred people. The mana
gers Of the cemetery make an explana.
ton for the refusal to admit the body of
Henry Jones, in which they say:
Are there not coIored schools, a colored
Masonic Institution, aud even cOlOred Gene

other cemetery OF which the Mount Moriah
managers have knowledge, and this has not
heretofore been considered any hardship, for

causes IN lhelr chariers prohibiting COlOred
ownership, and some OF them even c0lored in
-elIuent. There are over eleven thousand LOT
holders, and about nifty thousand people
directly and indirectly concerned in Mount
Mor-ah cemetery, and as a great majority OF
tLelh are opposed to the use OF the cemetery
- N'LpleN people Llt management, since this
LooOle has commenced, has had TO deal with

you are a dog unfit to be buried be-

Radicals have invited the negro? The
south complained st the passage Of the
civil rights bill. The whites remon-
=Jrated, expOstulsted, deprecated and
clamored against the passage OF this in
-quitous bin. But the fanatics OF the
north were ineX0Table. So long as the

II is asserted that thousands of emil

Of the hard times and scarcity OF work

Liberal State Convention Kidnapping
Government Suit.

ALBANY, Sept. 22.-Thc Liberal
State Convention is in session with
three hundred delegates present Gen.
John Cochran, permanent chairman.
Resolutions were offered and re-
ferred endorsing 1ilden's reform
measures, and recommending the part V
vote for persons who are personally
and politically IN sympathy with him
and the reform measures which he has
inaugurated, and We hereby recon-
mend the Liberal Republicans to vote
the Democratic ticket.
The following platform was unani-
mously adopted
There can be no sound currency but
coin or paper convertible into com ON
demand, without speedy resumption
on specie basis.
Dtpricates the forcible interference
with States rights.
Condemns the present Administra-
ton.
Endorses Tilden's action against the
Canal Ring.
Recommends the Liberal and indie
pendent voters to support those caudi-
dates already in nomination Of whom
they most approve, and who in their
Judgment will cooperate with Gov.
Tilden in his work of administrative
reform.
New YORK, Sept. 22-Fcur negroes
were arrested here yesterday, charged
with numbering a peddlar at West
Farms A quantity of the murdered
mans goods were found in their pos
possession.
The inquest on the men killed by
the aerial ladder accident, was held to-
day.
The Chief Engineer attributes the
break to an extended leverage and too
many men ascending at once. He con-
siders the ladder safe, but more than
one man cannot ascend the top section
with security.
Five hundred dollars reward has
been offered for the child Joseph Sui
livan, whose disappearance was re
ported a week ago.
Suit has been commenced against
r. 8. Allen, clothier, who! charged

clothes which he never furnished.

A DiORl w. EOurXec

The discussion of grave questions of
constitutional reform shOnld be kept
free from partisan rancOur aud We had
hoped that the Convention would devote
itself to the work before it without vast
ing its time In personal attacks or self
vindications. Especially had the Demo-
Gratis of North Carolina a right to eX-
pect that from their Radical opponents,
who had from every stump shrieked
for economy, and inveighed against the
RECKLESS waste of the PEG ule's money"
involved in calling the Convention.
Aud yec upon Thursday. Mr.. Tourgee,
of Guilford, ill discussing the question
of the number of Judges of the Su-
preme Court, delayed tine operations of
the Convention aud wasted much valu-
able time in a set speech in vindication
of the carpet-bagger. 1t is to be re-
GREETED that the white men of Guilford
county, who deliberately elected this
man in preference to John A. Gilmer
and Nereus Mendenhall, could not
have been present. How the blush of
shame would have mantled in their
cheeks at the recollection of their stu
pendous crime and folly. By affecting
stupidity which cannot justly be i'm
puted to him, Mr.. Tourgee refused to
admit that there was any distinction
between the honest men of the North
who have settled among us, and for
veal or woe have linked their fortunes
with the State, and the adventures
who core to North Carolina to prey
upon the misfortunes of the people,
and to achieve a prominence denied
them at home, by maligning the white
race of the SOuth and Wandering tn
the gressest prejudices of the negroes.
But far worse than this attend We
luke-warm Democrats of Guilford-he
went into an historical defence of the
carpet-baggr in which he had the
brazen effrontery with his God
defying blasphemy, to call our blessed
Saviour =" carpet-bagger. Jesus of
Nazareth the prototype of the Latin
and LITTLE fields, the Devices and Tour
gees! The subj. ct defies comment or
denunciation. It's naked, foul bias
phemy is it's sufficient condemnation.

SAYS the Ne1U York Tribune: If any
proof were needed that the North is
thoroughly sick of the "bloody out
rage" business it could be found in the
treatment given to Governor Ames' in
coherent demands for troops. Aside
from the organs at Washington, only
one or two Republican journals have
shown any sympathy for Ames. The
general sentiment toward him appears
to be fairly expressed by this para
graph from the Utica Herald. "There
is growing Impotence over the efforts
of such men as Ames to involve the
General Government in local troubles
that concern it last of all. There is a
gathering conviction that under such a
policy the Southern question will never
be eliminated from our politics, but
grow more complicated with the years.
Governor Ames' dispatches beighten
this impotence and deepen this con-
yiction."

Ny DEAR JOURNAL-If Mr., Richard
Badger was as devoted to political
principles as he is to his clients, it
would doubtless be much better for
the State and for his own reputation
as a public man. But SO he has not
proved. for while he has abandoned
political principles anG political affilia-
ton, with a reckless disregard both of
appearances and of consequences, he
has never yet wavered in his allegiance
to his clients, at least to that noted and
notorious client whose crimes have oc-
cupled SO much of public attention
since the war; We confess to some
admlration for courage and buldness,
even though we may detest the cause
III which it is displayed. It has not,
therefore, lowered Mr.. Badger in our
opinion. that he has boldly stood by
MS client Governor Holden, through
"thick and thin," as the saying is.
But it required something beside
courage and boldness, pure unadulter-
ated 'cheek," too, it required to stand
by such a client. Holden is no ordi-
Diary criminal, no common client. He
is, perhaps, to-day the most conspicu-

THE president has appointed Judge
Alexander White, of Alabama, chef
justice of the supreme court of Utah.
This is the MIR. White. who in the con
vention of 1865 argued against the
abolition of slavery, and desired Gods
thunders to blast him if ever he proved
recreant to the lost cause, and in 1867
urged the people of Alabama to spit
upon the reconstruction acts, imme
diately afterwards going over to the
Radical party. Last year this man
was defeated by 5000 votes when he
sought a reelection to Congress, and
this, coupled with the facts that he
voted for the force bill. made the last
speech for it, and was its author, suf-
feed to commend him to Mr.. Grants
gratitude. So promptly have Messrs.
Hazleton, Duell and White receive d
their wages during the past month,
that such of their fellows as remain
unpaid will do well to call on the Pres
ident while he has anything to give.
THE late Mr.. Ralstons two sons are
at school in West Newton, Mass.

The Convention on Monday passed
their third and final readings the bills
reducing the number of Superior
Court Judges to nine. changing the
converting Of the Legislature to
Wednesday after the first Monday in
January, nd empowering the Legis-
latu~e to establish intermediate or
Courts inferior to the Superior Courts.
These measures will meet the appro-
baton of the North Carolina public.
