"T4E lost cause" is cause that dis
turbs the Republican party considerably
They make it the hobby of their political
fights, and it is the ground Of attack upon
the Southern people, taken advantage of at
every, and the slightest opportunity. 1t
comes up now from the South, Charlotte,
North Carolina, was the scene, where a
doctor of divinity displayed his rebellious
sentiment at the decoration of graves, by
declaring slavery divine institution, and
stating that the South was vanquished, out
not cowed. We will warrant to say that
there are not an hundred men in the whole
South who endorse this sentiment, and it il
only the blatant demagogues of the Repub
lcan party who agtats it solely for politi-
cal purpoe0s.

superior to all other people there in at

one we suppose, is that just de-

human vampires were born and raised in
Boston, shared the same atmosphere, both
moral and otherwise, with the Boston peo-
pie, partaking of the same religious foun-

had passion for murder, and literally tor
tured their victims to death by the most
barbarous punishments. We do not mean
to say that all Boston is wicked, but we
think it very strange that from class of

every respect, there sheuld come out two
of the very worst phases of depraved hui

TIE TITLE OF EMPRESS.

The extension of the title of Empress
seems to have been engineered through by
Ir. Di-raell and number Of other tosdys
TO tn. crown. TO il there are the strong
est feelings Of opposition, and if the Queen
is conferred with the new title, it must
be at the sacrifice Of unanimity among
her subjects. A new and turbulent ele-
mcat will prevail in the British realm, and
th"t happy contentment, 80 peculiar to the
Englishman, whose sole aim seems to be
to get his roast beef and ale every day, lei
the helm of the government be handled by
whomsoever it pleases, will be destroyed
The feeling of bitterness has already beer
generated, and it has been decided that
protest on the subject shall be raised il
the House of Commons. The proclana-
ton is issued from "our Courts at Wind
sor," and declares that it is directed tia
the present coinage of the United King
dom and of its dependencies, shall con
tinue to be current and lawful without tn
addition Of the new title.
The papers Of India are very much op
posed to the extenti0n Of Victorla's title!
and holds that the change will do grea
deal of mischief in unsettling the mind {
the population, and exciting vague hope
and fears especially among the chiefs an
princes, that will increase the arrogar
pretensions of Indian officials. 1t seen
to be the prevailing opinion in Englan
that the extension Of the title to the Quee
has been mistake, and will lead to yer
serious and unhappy results, if the efio
to confer it is carried out by Mr. Disrae
and the other toadys.

.EPUBLrcANIsm IN wlLnlNaToH.

Republican politics IN wilmington mus
be very much debauched, if the evidencs
of the old and reliable members of the
party, upon this subject has any semblance
Of truth. Strategy in politics is deemed
fair, as much as in the handling of troops
in battle. They are both directed against
some opposing body, and leaders are con-
sidered active, brave and vigilant who
carry out strategical movements success
fully. But there is difference between
strategy and low class of trickery which
none but few men; only those who are
deep in the mire of politics, and in the
strait of doubt, would indulge for the small
reward it bring. But it is typical OF that
class of politics which has been introduced
into National politics since the Republi-
can party came into power. 1t is not out
of the common run of events for all par
ties to initiate their high priests, and it
may be that the Republican party of Will
mington comes by this low species of poll
tics they are now exercising, in prepara-
ion for the election to-day, as common
heritage from the great national party?
A distinctive feature of the Republican
party of Wilmington to-day is bribery
and promises made that it is never intended
to keep. We were informed yesterday by
a member of the party that he was
fairly disgusted, and would never
again interfere in politics. He
knew by his own personal knowledge
of colored man in the Seventh Ward
being approached and offered twenty
FIVE dollars, if he would change his base Of
operations, but this colored man, be it said
to his credit, showed more honor than his
wl'ite brothers, and refused the offer.
Another colored man, who has considers
bic influence ameng those of his own color,
was offered fifty dolalrs, if he would desert
the Scott colors, and take up the standard
of Hastings, The special and highly hon
orable return he must make for this, would
be to stand at the polls in his ward, and
hand out Hastings tickets instead Of those
of Scott. Here was another evidence of
the greater honesty in the colored man
than in his white brothers, for he refused
it. Another instance of the terrible effort
being made to gain supremacy in bitter
fight between two rival factions is the one
of the position as janitor in the Postotiice
building being offered to no less than four
persons, if they would use their influence
tor Mr.. Scott, in the election to-day. Five
dollars piece for votes that can command
others, is considered very low price Of
purchase, and if reports be true, and there
is ne reason to doubt them, there has been
considerable money expended in this way
by the Republican party, of Wilmington,
recently. This is an excellent school of
politics, But as we have said before, it is
thoroughly typical of that class which the
great national party (?) introduced and
we can expect nothing but an imitation
from ali who worship at the same shrine

SMALL CHANGE.
FOR PRESIDENT !

We have recently had some experience
with that class of money which the col
ored man denominated as something dogs
can't chaw." The novelty of handling
silver makes it all the more appreciable,
and its convenience is much greater than
the dilapidated fractional notes. which, in
the course of wear, become greasy and
ragged. The silver is really not worth as
much as the fractional notes, the Govern
ment calling them in by the issue Of the
subsidiary coin, as rapidly as possible, with
all preference for the notes. This we would
readily think suggestive of holding on to
the notes, but the desire for silver appears
to have come as much from its convenience
in handling, and the suggestiveness it
always gives of ante-bellum days, when
every man had his pockets filled with gold
and silver. The patience of the American
has been very much taxed by the fractional
note. In its handling as medium Of
change considerable time is lost, and, with
the care required in handling, it was tiring.
Therefore the new issue is much well
coined. In Wilmington the banks have
circulated small quantities, and not 50
much as there is demand for, which can
not be satisfied Immediately, as the flow
upon the market has to be regulated by
the Treasury Departmentti.rough the sub
treasures.
In Philadelphia and New York, the
demands for the new issue have been una.
suaIly large, and since is first issue the
sub-Treasurv in the latter city has crcu'
lated 81, ,404 ,Sl4. With gr4at many, it i:
valued fer a0otier purpose, other than / a
of its usefulness in making change. III,
have known lis value as a precious ner
so long that they cannot ALLEVIATE this oi'
thought from s association with money
We are told that great deal of the silve
issued has fallen into the hands OF th
farmers and hard working men, who AZ
ignorant as to the intentions of its issues
and are boarding it up, as they were won
to do in the old days. and because as tn
old darkey remarked, " 1t is somethingNh
dogs can't chaw." This would necessarll
cause scarcity until the flow from tn
treasury to fill up these leaks from the az
tive channels can be arranged, and regu
late tho small change facilities of our cul
rency.
Philadelphia has received over half
million Of dollars in silver coin, circuls
ted through the National banks ther
But Wilmington seems to have fare
worse than any in the distributions mad
Altogether the amount circulated throu2
the National banks here has not reache
three thousand dollars. Of this, the Fir
National Bank received 81 900, the Ban
Of Delaware $500 and the Union Natior
al Bank $500. OF this there is none lie
on hand, and tie bankers here, as in Il
larger cities account for this in the hes
tation Of the Government to release
a great deal at present, for fear that it m;
be bought up for speculative purpose
and it may be as long as two years befo
the full amount to cover all fraction
currency out, $40,000,OO0, is released.

CLUB MEETING.

The Tilden Club met on Saturday
night and had a good attendance in
Guiding a few eolored voters. The
FIRST speech was made by Judge Man
ming, who called attention to! the fact
that while there was marked enthu
siasm in other parts of the State,
here apathy seemed to have taken
posses ion of our party. He warned
his hearers that the continuance OF
this feeling would lose the Parish,
and inevitably affect the District
and State ticket. All would deplore
this. He paid glowing tribute to
Gen. Nichols, and remarked the
circumstance shat wherever our can
didate had appeared, his presence
alone had inspired men of all colors
and Ill parties with confidence and a
feeling Of security. The Judge then
argued shat She recent Parish and
District Convention had been more
fully attended than usual. and more
interest was displayed at the Ward
meetings than ever before, and there.
fore it was more probable that they
expressed the popular will. Wheth.
er that was so or not, the nominees
were now before the people and
should be supported. He called on
them to vote the whole ticket if they
would dc their whole duty, and pre-
vents trouble in the future and avoid
defeat in the present election.
Capt. J. G. White next spoke, en-
dorsing every word that had been
uttered by the previous speaker, and
warned the Club that lethargy would
not promote success, and if we did
not 60 20 work energetically, the con-
sequence would be defeat,
Mr.. R, P. Hunter next spoke, and
said be had been all day looking on
at che Radical Convention, and he
could assure the Club that II we had
dissatisfaction in our party with our
Parish and District tickets, the Rad
icals had a good deal more Of it than
we had, and that he heard many of
them declare they would not support
the tickets nominated that day. He
said that outspoken fault-6nding
with our ticket by our own friends
would do great harm. that IL any of
our party could not in their con-
science vote for particular names on
our ticket, let them scratch the OBJ.
jectionable names and vote the 9th.
ers, and not 60 round the Town and
Parish talking their dissatisfaction
and injecting others with it.
The meeting was altogether a
success.
