The love which Republicans have
for the colored men is exern plified by
the testimony OF q Wiley Wells, Re
publican member of Congress from
Mississippi before Congressional
Investigating committee on Southern
outrages. In 1874, at the Tins of the

for the negroes to get mp the iiots, and
when it was represented to him that
the colored men would be mnssacred.
replied, that he knew il, "but the
blood of fifteen or twenty negroes
would do the party good.
This is the secret of tho Southern
outrages. which are confined sxcln.
siyely to States where Republicans
have control of every office from Gov
amor down. The outrages are melted
by officers of the Ames stripe for psrti-
san purposes, because their bleed
arouses the north, aud does the party
good. OF all the false issnes introduced

The returns FROM Arkansas and Yer
mont show that those two States offset
each other, and it will be very difficult
for either party to make capital out OF
the result. The vote in Vermont is
very full. and shows gains f,r both par

20 the polls, and the Republicans State
and Congressional tickets are elected by
large majoriiies. In 1872. Grant car

AYourhful Incendlary

Warren johnson, a lad IL years old,
an adopted son of Charles Coleman, of
Newfane, has been arrested and taken
to Jail for an attempt to burn house
and barn belonging to Coleman, Sunday
afternoon. The barn and contents were
completely destroyed, but the house was
saved. 1t was evidently the design of
the boy to burn both buildings, as they
were fred in several places and almost
at the same moment. He confessed his
guilt, though, singular enough, his father
believes him innocent.
