The daily dispatch. [volume] (Richmond [Va.]) 1850-1884, 1876-12-30

A San Francisco clergyman eSpied a
street-car on December 18th less than hall Il
block distant, and quickened his pace i'll
the hope Of overtaking it ut the corner;
but the driver, instead of stopping there,
whipped his horses and sent the car bowl
ing along the track at high speed. The
clergyman broke into run; he swung his
arms, shouted, and made all manner OF mo-
tions to attract the attention of the driver.
A group Of loafers who had watched the
flight OF the white crayat set up the cry OF
"Stop theief!" and dozen men Joined in
the chase, headed by a Jealous policeman.
The runaway clergyman was soon in the
hands of the officer. The crowd called
upon him to surrender the plumber. With
mingled establishment and indignation, the
preacher asserted that he was minister OF
the gospel and not thief, and that he had
been making desperate effort to catch the
car. An acquaintance stepped forward and
identified him, and so the farce came to an
end. From first, to last he neither swore
nor lost his temper, nor committed any
breach whatsoever OF the proprieties Of
ministerial converse. Let honor crown his
name.

Redfeld thus speaks: "Those who talk
war should not count in the negro upon
either side. And this is q mistake the Re-
publicans make. They count 800, 900 black
men on their side, and figure out proportion
ate results. They deceive themselves. They
had as well count out the blacks entirely.
Then what? We find that among the white
voters Tildcn is nearly a million ahead
That is, there are million more white men
for Tilden than Hayes. Should it come
right down to a fight, and every white man
drawn in, Tildcn's army would be about a
million the largest. He would win if any
body did but by the time such fight was
over. doubt ii there would be anything
left OF the United States worth the while OF
anybody to preside over"
