is really wonderful that elections nave been
so pcaccahlc.
Does negro srer harrah for anybody
or 0nythingH
Never In the sense OF an intelligent or
enthusiastic hurrah. They shout and APP
plaud when listening TO speeches, and IN
their professions are sometimes noisy; but
they are not susceptible OF enthusiasm,
and ale not intelligent enough to know
what to be enthusiastic about.
s'Are their uoteS bought? mean at the
bauot-bo1 ?"
No. That is, not rs rulc-not so much,
T think, as are the votes OF white men.
Often before an election they Will receive
the pricc and promise to vote accordingly,
but almost ALWAYS they fail to keep the pro-
mise. They vote solidly, or used to do so.
Sometimes they could be cheated, some
times frightened into voting in a particular
wav: but as a whole they were very sure to
vote Republican.
"Do theyhaue recognized black leaders at
primary eleciions?"
There are black, or generally mulatto,
men among them whom they recognize, not
as leaders exactly, but as men OF marx ana
influence, and these men can do good
deal with them when acting in concert with
white leaders or under their directions; but
whenever there is an isSue-yerv rare-be-
tween the white and the negro leader the
white takes the precedence. The black
leaders are no doubt very active and effi-
cient in the ddrh in getting up meetings,
going among them in their cabins and fields,
in carving out the orders OF the white
men; but in Tennessee there has been no
decided negro leadership, and very little
in Mississippi. The carpet-baggcr has
been the power But Ior him both
negroes and white folks would have
been far better off. Shrewd, unscru.
pulous, cruel, grasping, selfish, he has
used the negro. lie has excited his preju-
diccs, told him the white folks intended Ia
reGnSlave him, tainted him upon his social
inferiority and exclusion from the cars. the
atrcs, &C.. taken advantage OF his isno-
rance; exposed him, when necessary TO
make capital, to violence and death and,
in short, by constant and designed manipu-
lation OF his fears and all the qualities OF
his low estate, made him mere tool. The
negroes have not been allowed to share
very largely in the plunder or the offices.
The carpet-baggers have taken the lions
share. and, 0 Lord, they hare plum
dered! They have been ovcrawed So
cially by the native whites, and they
have felt sore and revengeful. Bold,
bad, coarse, smart, they have been remark
able set OF men. no man knows the south
crn situation until he knows the carpet-baS-
ger. Filling the United States offices, the
negroes looked to them as representing the
Government, and as their friends, those
upon whom they must depend for per-
petuation OF their freedom and the ne
groes have yielded them an obedience. blind,
absolute, abject. The carpct-bagger is dis
appearing now, and there is no trouble. 1t
is wonderful how they have managed to
escape personal harm, hateful and hated AS
they have been.

We Must Tpke Mexico.

The alternative to the perpetual malnte-
nance OF large standing army on the Rio
Grande is either the perpetual recurrence
OF hostile incursons by Mexican bandltti,
or the removal OF the Mexican boundary to
the Sierra Madra, and the colonization OF
the intervening country with a people more
capable OF maintaining a civilized Govern
ment than are its present Inhabitants. The
true policy Of this country is not tie main
tenance Of standing armies to guard its bor'
lers against outside barbarians. 1t is to put
before the barharians the alternative OF be-
having themselves civi!ly or OF being
swiftly and relentlessy eXtermnated. This
is our true course toward the people OF
Mexico. 1t is high time for the Washing
ton Government to stop iooling on the Mex
ican question, and take effective measures
to bring that question TO an end. " =.
II the Washing gton Government is disin-
cined to pursue the annexation" policy
the American people are not. Mr.. Hayes's
Government could not do anything that
would so certainly command the favor
and support of an immense majority OF
Americans as would the Seizure by military
force of the infested region between the
Rio Grande and the Sierra Madra. What il a
war should follow? 1t would at least en-
able the Government to legitimately give
employment to q large number OF unem-
ployed workingmen, who would gladly en-
BRACE the opportunity to emigrate with
muskets to Tanaulipas, New Leon, Goa
hula, and chihuahua, and who would lind
in the fertile acres and rich mines OF that
region the solution of the " labor problem"
which they will never discover in the crazy
notions OF the knaves of La Commune
ChiCuqO Times.
