The New York Sun say 1t is not
probable that there will be many illega
arrests during the pending campaign.
The enforcement act, by decision of
Chief Justice Waite of the United States
Supreme Court, delivered in October,
1875, has virtually been declared uncon-
stitutional, and United States Commits
sioners and United States Marshals, if
they have any sense of regard for their
own interests, will be careful how they
exceed their authority. Wherever they
attempt to do SO, sworn evidence should
at once be taken and authenticated, to
be used against them hereafter.
The mere presence Of troops in the
Southern States during the pending can
vass can do no harm, except that it may
intimidate colored voters who are tired
of being used as tools of the thieving car
pet-baggers. The officers of the army
as a rule, have no disposition to infringe
upon the right of the citizen to vote as
he pleases, and even if they had, they
are not fools-they can see the quite
revolution in political sentiment which
is going on, and they cannot be expected
to exhibit much enthusiasm in the Work
OF unlawfully interfering to prevent the
election Of the man who will probably be
the next President, no matter how this
or that special community may vote.
We have no doubt that our Southern
friends and the troops sent to overawe
them will get along very pleasantly to-
gether.

We understand that question is now
mootted among the negroes of this
county, in their! secret night meetings
thai may give some annoyance to their
white leaders. 1t is known that the
negroes constitute large majority of
the Republican party in several of the
Hundreds. We believe this is so in St.
Georges and Pencader, especially. The
negroes have demanded to tie placed on
the juries of the County Courts-.hey
expected this as it had been done in
Maryland and some other States. But
they were not gratified although they
cast about one-half the Republican
votes. The Democratic Sheriff and Dem
ocratic Levy Court was not expected to
do this. But they expected it from Re-
publicans who were elected. They also
claim that as they cast so large a vote
in Wilmington their party ought to have
given them representative on the Coun-
ell ticket. These neglects have annoyed
some of the negro buc ks, and they have
been trying to settle down upon plan
Of their own. 1t is simply to fix upon
two of their own race in st. Georges,
Pencader or Appoquinimink and nomi-
nate one for the Levy Court and the
other for the Legislature. There is no
appeal from the nominations made by
the Republican party, since they hold no
County Convention, and hence the Re
publican colored peoples scheme could
be fully and successfully carried out.
This would put their white leaders to
the test. The Commercial is very anx.
ious to stop the discussion of the mat
ter. But the most clamorous OF its
colored brethren can't see the harm
there is in the scheme, and much less see
harm in the discussion OF it.

1t is matter of general comment IN
