ances deserve the most respectful conside-
ration, and that reflection which the ema-
nations of so WISE and patriotic gentle
man merit As showing that destitution
and decentralization may be avoided by pur
suing the line of policy indicated by Mr..
Burwell, as we'll as an exhibit of the obli-
cations the whole country is under to the
colored laborer, we subjoin the following
additional extract from the letter in ques-
ton, and leave the subject to the conside-
ration of rejecting minds:
'sMuch of the destitution and Decentralization,
with many deplorable collisions between capi-
tai, on the one hand, and labor untaught, un-
protected and disorganized on the other, might
be instigated by employing colored industry,
otherwise unoccupied, for the supply of do
mestic wants. Let, then, those who appreciate
this great object devote themselves to give it
practical effect. Let those who can spare the
capital establish some model industries among
the colored people; let them endow technology
cal or trade schools and polytechnical lnstitu-
tions for their instruction. Has philanthropy
given the freedmen capital? They have re-
ceived back from the banking charter with
which they were presented some ten per cent.
of their own money. Congress Immediately
after the war imposed a special tax on cotton
and tobacco. We may estimate the amount
collected under that law at as many millions
as may seem proper. Nor need we answer the
question here whether the tax was deducted
from the sale or purchase of this product. In
the first place, it would have been the joint
contributions to the Government of capital
and labor. Upon one point there can be no
question-the greatest part of the product was
the result of colored labor. Without the pro-
ductive force of the freedmen the Gotten and
tobacco, sugar and rice could not at that time
have been grown nor the tax collected. In the
event, then, that the laborers, whether white
or colored, were instrumental in producing
this crop, they aided the Government in the
moment of supreme exhaustion. They gave
their aid not merely in the tribute of a special
tax, but in the creation of staples nearly
equivalent TO gold coinage equal to the ma.

THERE can be no doubt that even in the
North the Democracy still adheres to the
infamous anti-war heresies which upheld
them on Southern battle fields as well as at
Northern ballot boxes IN their opposition to
the Republican party. For example, the
New York World of the 2Sth instant prints
the following as one of its most prominent
editorial paragraphs:
Sine best thing in Mr.. EVarts' striking
speech yesterday at the unveiling of the Sew
ard statue was the sentence in which he said
of Mr.. Seward that 'he believed it is the con-
sent of citizens that makes the safety and
greatness ofthe nation, and not the powef that
can coerce citizens Those who remember the
tinkling of that little belI may doubt whether
Mr.. Seward quite deserved this particular
praise. But it is the right of an orator on
such an occasion to idealize his theme, and Mr..
Evarts, we are sure, believes, what certainly
Mr.. Seward ought to have believed upon this
point"
There is great deal of romance in the
tales of the tinkling of that little bell, but
romance TT not, the World takes advantage
of these tales to insinuate that the nation
had not the power during the rebellion to
'coerce citizens" who were in rebellion
against it. And the World is the repre-
sentative paper Of the modern Democracy
the Democracy that wishes bygones to
be bygones, and processes to accept the re-
suits of the war as a final settlement of all
the issues involved in the late sectional

AND now comes Mr.. Willism Bell. jr.,
the standard bearer of the Ohio Democ-
racy, with reminiscence of the past ring
ing in his ears Some one has been ruthless
enough to prove that in October, 1862, he
signed an address to the Democratic voters
of Licking county, Ohio, of which the fol-
lowing is an extract:
"Strike to save yourself from drafts, con-
scription, unrelenting, interminable civil war,
from an impending food of free negroes, from
a corrupt Congress and Administration, from a
mountain of taxes that will crush the Ameri-
can people forever
These words are certainly suggestive to
Mr.. Bell of the name of the county in
which they were uttered.

followed by part of the Wilcox delegates, and
was nominated by that gang In 1874, when
the largest vote was cast, Dallas and Wilcox
gave II, ,45S Republican votes. Hale, Lowndes
and Perry gave IL ,473. Sothstif Jere gets every
vote represented by his boiling crowd Rapier
would beat him l ,020 votes. We think that
the colored people of this district have had
enough of Rsdicalism. They have found out
there is no money in it for them, and we De-
ieve there are thousands Of them in this coun-
ty and in the district who will come out and
vote for the honest, able and reliable gentle
man who heads our ticket.
GAS between the two African candidates, Is
unquestionSbly our policy to throw all the
colored votes that we can't get for our own
candidate to Jere Haralson. Rapier is an edu-
Gated negro of some ability; he is thorough
Radical; is vindictive and mean and has the
ear and confidence of Gen. Grant and the Radt-
cal crew in Washington. Jere has no influence
with Grant; don't bother himself about stay
ing in Washington; is ignorant and corrupt.
His presence in Washington is real benefit to
US, as he is a good example of the worst OF his
race. He is mean, malicious, cowardly scamp;
but he is in opposition to the regular candi-
date; and it is, of course, our policy to aid In
breaking down the Radical organization. So
long as the Radicals stand by their party nomt-
nations we have no chance to accomplish any
thing; but wherever they begin to elect boilers
we shall be able to overcome them. If we can
succeed in getting the Radicals in Dallas and
Wilcox to vote for Jere we can surely elect
Gen. Shelly. Every vote given for the African
statesman is a vote for Shelly"

THE New York Herald says the Repub-
lican party seems to think the Southern
States are ''the prize Of the war, to give
cup which is to give up the result of the
"war" Never were truer words uttered.
To give up the Southern States to the
DemoCracy-as the most of them have
been given up-is to abandon the war
amendments to the Constitution, and to
ignore the rights of millions of people who
were made citizens by those amendments.
If the Government, or the Republican
party while it is in control Of the Govern
ment has any stamina or honesty, the
rights of those vino became citizens by the
result of the war will be protected. Better
far that they should have remained in un-
doubted slavery than that they should
have tasted the sweets of liberty only to
become virtual slaves again, or targets for
the merciless rifles Of those who fought to
keep them IN slavery.

Notwithstanding the stormy weather on
Tuesday, the first days registration in
Brooklyn, n. Y, amounted to 1868 names,
against 1G, ,S96 last year. This shows that the
people are aroused to the importance of the
issues before the country. The Democrats
always register in full force, so that the in
crease must be taken as nearly all Republican,
and an indication that all classes mean to
take part in the coming election. There will
tie full vote polled, and full vote is always
Republican victory.

termined to make great man of Captain 8.

reply to the ISLANDERS of the Gazette. 1t is
worth reading. 1t may be added that dozen
or more of the most reliable men engaged at
the Capitol corroborate the Captains denial
of the GGzette'S charges. The ISLANDERS which
the Gazette has given currency to have been
hawked about the Washington press for some
weeks past without finding any one to print
them. They were set on foot by some
youngsters, who were ambitious of becoming
guides to strangers about the Capitol build
ing, but who were restrained by the Capitol
police because of the irresponsible character
of some of them and the extortionate practices
of others. One of these brilliant youths ac-
costed the late Speaker pro tempore, Hon.
Milton ]. Sayler, the last time he was here
and offered his services to escort him through
the Capitol, (mistaking him for a Centennial
Strangely The Speaker quizzed the young
man little while and then told him who he
was, and advised him to seek other business,
and leave "guiding" to the Capitol officials.
He also told Captain Blackford of his expe-
rience, and charged him to see that visiting
strangers were not imposed upon by self
appointed guides in the Capitol of the nation.
In pursuance of these instructions, Captain
Blackford has had occasion once or twice to
interfere with the little enterprises of several
would be guides "for whatever you choose to
give" and they are taking their revenge by
attempts at SANDER through the columns of
the Gazette. That's all.

The Two Statues.

NEW YORK, sept. q, 1870.
The unveiling of the statue of William H.
Seward to-day was a significant event. A few
days ago witnessed similar ceremony when
the statue of Lafayette was unveiled. Both
of these works of art stand in the most con-
spicuous and the most favorable positions in
New York-the Seward in Madison square, at
the intersection of Broadway and Fifth avenue.
In passing up either of these great thorough
fares the statue faces you and is sure to catch
your eye. 1t is the same when you pass up or
down Twenty third street or when you stand
on the steps of the Fifth Avenue hotel. The
Lafayette is placed in like commanding stu
alton in Union square, looking directly down
Broadway, fanked on either side by Washing
ton and Lincoln. The statue of Lafayette by
Bartholdi is fine piece of work, partaking
somewhat in style of its French origin.
1t seems fitting that statues of Lafayette and
Seward should be raised almost simultaneously
in this Centennial year. Both, in their own
lands, were apostles of Liberty. Mr.. Seward
visited Lafayette in September, 1888, at his
home iu France. After the death of Lafayette
Mr.. Seward lai II an eloquent Grafton on
the virtue z. ua lat patriot.
NJ Hva.l mis- Grafton, and in one of his
ls.,r-s s.ol. Europe, describes the hospitality
~ . ,'t' .Isiasm with which Lafayette and his
y received him as an American citizen.
-afayette's love for America never abated.
We hope the time is not far distant when the
statues of Lafayette and Seward will grace
the capital of the nation as they low do the
metropolis. Washington should be the city
of statues. Besides these two named we miss
at the capital any memorial of John Adams,
one of the greatest of American patriots. His
statue should be placed by the side of Jefier-
sons before our Centennial ardor dies away.
You will copy, no doubt, from the New York
papers the details Of the ceremonies to-day,
and hope find room for Mr.. Eyarts' Grafton in
your paper. 1t is impossible to do justice to
him by any description of his great effort. 1t
must be thoughtfully read or heard. The
whirligig of time brings round great changes.
Twenty-Five years ago Mr.. Evarts was making
speeches antagonistic to Mr.. Seward, and the
city of New York was more ready to lynch the
apostle of the Higher Law than to build him
q monument. Indeed, the city at that time
would not tolerate so moderate an auti-slavery
man as Hamilton Fish, who was to have pre-
sided to-day.
/ regret to learn that Mr.. Evarts did not
write out his splendid Grafton, and that the
reporters but imperfectly heard him. If SO, it
will be public loss.
The statue is one of the best in America,
both as work of art and as a likeness. 1t
should be duplicated for Washington. B.

.. .- Us - -.-S.a InCeTes
This political force Is yet to form and ex-
press its own theory upon the subject. Sup
pose 1t shall appear that this industry will in
sure here an adequate reward for both the
capital ard labor invested. We may not only
anticipate the cordial cooperation of the two
races in the common interest, but also that
success in the manufacture of any purple
fabric will become the example of other Incl
dental and kindred Industries among US. Sup
pose the friends Of home manufactures appeal
to this political power, Ieither insignificant nor
unworthy to be inviLPL into alliance with the
manufacturing interest. Remember, that at
the present rate the colored people are entitled
tc more than thirty members of Congress and
of the Electoral College. This is about one
sixth of either body. Remember that they are
not, as formerly, endowed like women and
children with mere right to be represented,
but that they now have the power to express
their opinion in the choice of their representa-
tives.
''The most practical means of testing and Of
appealing to this vote would be /: 1. To include
the staple products of sugar, rice and tobacco
among the standard articles of American pro-
duction; 2. To afford the colored people an op-
portunity of proving how competent they are
of manufacturing fabrics of ordinary use and
rendering services as mariners. Special aid
should be extended them in the manufacture
of cotton yarns, cloths and prints. The en-
ployment Of colored operatives in mills separate
from those which employ white labor would
prevent collision of races and insure the ex-
pertinent of capacity. 1t was published last
year that at one place at least in ireland there
is Protestant cotton mill and Catholic cot
ton mill. The proprietors propose, no doubt,
to keep yarn and theology apart. Why not
the races be separated industriously as well
1t must not be forgotten that grave responsi-
bilty rests with those who have assumed
voluntary guardianship over the emancipated
millions. 1t would be a dereliction of that
responsibility to disband this phIlanthropic Or
ganization before the results of its action shall
have been determined. 1t will not be proper
to assume to emancipation that which had
been solely the result of slavery"
This, be it remembered, is the language
of native Soutberner, and one who has
given to the subject of political economy,
especially as it bears upon the material de-
veIopment of the industries of the country,
lifetime of vigorous thought. The ap-
peal is made for aid in the direction of
utilizing the colored element of the South
and more particularly the rising genera
tOn-to those who have the best interests
Of those people at heart, viz: those who
have persistently advocated their freedom,
and who are now trying to solve the
problem with regard to their future. As
we endeavored TO show in former

become, after years of reflection, con-
vert TO the doctrines of protection, as
well as of Republicanism, of which party

country is cardinal tenet His utter
