Thomas Bayard was on tho Custom House In
vestigation Committee in New York, and his
courtesy there drew friends to him. His princi-
pal exploit, however, was to take the platform
at the Baltimore Convention and protest against
the nomination of Greeley. Tlis was done prin-
cipslly in dumb show, but with pluckiness
which attracted the Hunkers, and after the die
aster of the contest it WAS remembered as politi-
cal sagaety Of the intrepid order. It's real OBJ
ject was to enye Delaware from going liepnbll-
can at critical time, when there was TO be a
Legislature soon after TO re-elect or defeat Bay
ard. Delaware did go for Grant, but re.
turned to its beehive in another season and ret
Mr. Bayard back in his place, to the satisfaction
of every Republican, who would rather see MIR.
Bayard there than any of that stripe.
Tho illusion about Bayard is the name. II il
the best name to risen in this country, not be-
cause any OF the Delaware Bayards gave it any
great Significance, but because there was an old
chevalier who died sans peur u sdns ftprocl,e
and he said, rebuked on the battlefield of his
death for the political side he esponsed sit is
not who should fear to die, but thou who art
in arms against thy country and thy king" If
Mr. Bayard can run on this saying, he will run
well
But, except for the Presidency, he has quail
ties worthy of all consideration He ID pure, dig
nified and sweet of nature and life. He has
honor and the desire to keep it, He ia a lawyer
in fair practice. successful in politics early in
life, but under conditions quite unusual
in this country, aud his social accom-
paniments and large family show
that he is in tune as in relation ortho

TIE ACrIvEs--oTHER NOTES.
The first of the second series of games be
tween tho Quicksteps Of this city and the Actiyes

1t was in favor of the Quicksteps until that fa-
tai eighth inning the usual blunderiug spot for
the Quicksteps AT the end of the third inning,
the Quicksteps had rams to the Actives 2, and
at the end of the seventh il stood to 3 iu favor
of tho Qucksteps On the eighth inning errors
of the Qucksteps let the Actlves get five rams.
while their own SIDE scored nothing. Each side
now had runs. and amidst the greatest excite
ment the ninth inning was proceeded with, and
resulted i'll blank for EACH.
1t was now necessary to play another inning,
and in it the Actives scored one run and won the
game.
Ciinch yesterday took Gearys place, tho latter
having u sore hand. Chnch also had Il lame
hand, but not so bad as Geary's The following

The Indians north of Camp McDer-
init are represented as being sullen and
disposed to shun the whites. This con-
duct is interpreted by those familiar
with the Indian character as an indica-
ton of war. A correspondent writing
to the Silver City Avalanche from Sum-
NIT Station, thirty-fve miles north of
McDermit, says that an Indian out
break is imminent in that vicinity this
Spring. A demonstration has already
been made by an attempt to burn the
Station. This is about the season of
the year for Indians to begin their devil
ment, and from what is said of their
actions North it is not improbable that
they may commence depredations in
that vicinity at any time.

The Democratic Senators Gold and
new at Washington discountenance
the agitation of extreme measures and
counsel moderation. They think the
great duty at the present time is, if
possible, to bring the country back to
constitutional government, and to the
prosperity of which 1t has SO long been
deprived. A conservative course on
the part of the Democracy insures the
death of Grantism.

A CoLoRED MANS TESTIMONY.

Major NJ. r. Delaney, a colored
citizen of South Carolina, is lecturing
in New York City on the condition of
the negroes in the South. The lecturer,
who is described as being fluent and
eloquent speaker, was born in Virginia,
brought up slave, and is OF unmixed
descent. At the close of the war he
settled in Charleston, where he has
labored sedulously to harmonic his
race with their old masters, believing
that to be the true and only way of
securing the permanent prosperity OF
whites and negroes. At lecture de-
livered in Irving Hall last week, Major
Delaney was introduced to the audi
ence by William Cullen Bryant, who
said it was his privilege to present one
who had fought with his pen and with
his sword for the freedom and enfran-
chisement of his race. When the APP
plause that greeted the speaker sub
sided he proceeded to tell what he
knew of the social condition and rela-
tions of the two races in the South. He
said that few people in the North
knew anything of those relations, as
their information had come from
and through those that are inter
ested in misrepresenting the facts.
He said there had not been a political
meeting in the South in seven years to
which the colored people did not 60
armed and in organized bands, being
advised to do so by the satchel carriers,
who would be considered unworthy of
holding the most subordinate positions
in decently constituted government.
The result has been legislation by men
who cannot even read or write. The
speaker did not wish to be understood
as advocating the dispossession of the
race of their newly-acquired rights. On
the contrary, he maintained that the
only true reconstruction lay in the
recognition of the two political elements
that exist in the South. What they
want and must have is radiance from
the incubus of rulers and advisers who
have no interest in the South or its
people. No one who is man wishes
to force himself where he is not wanted,
and this is his answer to the objec-
tons to civil rights. Some time ago at
Columbia, Colonel Trenholm, General
Chestnut and many other of the old
aristocrats had participated in meet
ing which the speaker had addressed.
This he considered was evidence of the
feeling of the old masters toward their
late slaves. 1t shows that what the
South now wants is to be let alone to
reconcile its own differences.
The evidence of this man, who has
lived in the South since the war, and
knows the condition of political affairs
in that section, gives the lie direct to
the reports of Grants outrage manu-
facturers, and will do much toward
convincing the people of the North that
the greatest obstacles to the peace and
welfare of the South are Grants officials
and carpet-bag Office seekers.

ATTORNEY GENERAL WILLIAMS, as a
precautionary measure, is going to
"step down and out" Aware that
his official acts as chief of the Depart
ment of Justice will not bear close
scrutiny-in fact will not bear the light
of day at all-he proposes to retire be-
fore the assembling of the next Con-
gress. Beck, of Kentucky, who has
been watching Williams movements
for some time past, is reported by the
telegraph to have said that some of his
acts warrant impeachment, particularly
the Durell case, for he authorized acts
upon which Durells impeachment was
based. 1t will be easy to find better
lawyer for the place than Williams,
though it may be troublesome to Grant
to get so plant tool.

The Jewish Messenger thus fixes the
supreme period of mans life. From
forty to sixty, man who has properly
regulated himself may be considered as
in the prime of life. His natural
strength Of constitution renders him
almost impervious to the attack of
disease, and experience has given his
judgment the soundness of almost in
fallibility. His mind is resolute, firm

highest order; he assumes the mastery
over business; builds up competence
on the foundation he has laid in early
manhood, and passes through period
of life attended by many qualifications.
