1t is interesting to study the table Of

has taken place during the past year.
We can thus see now the financial de-
pression has contracted business oper-
ations II different kinds.

1875 TO S,903. 900 lbs. in 1876.
These things indicate how tie mui-

Ga the other hand the importations OF
silk goods, used by the wealthy, only

THE RADICAL SOLID SOUTH.
Republican papers with Mr.. Hayes at
their head seem to be dreadfully alarmed
about solid South-that is the solid
white men voting together in the South
but they are themselves responsible for
it. So long as they could keep the ne
groes from voting any other ticket than
the Radical ticket they did so. They
held the negro through taking advantage
of his ignorance, and by the use of the
army.
With the money which by legislation
they stole from the public treasury in
various States they supported newspapers
in which they pr inted all manner of lies.
And such of these political lies as suited
their purposes best they had their ennis
saries and office-holders read to the ne
groes.
In Delawawe this was and is the case.
The GAzETTE has not single negro
subscriber and is read entirely by white
men, while the Republican papers are
largely taken by the negroes, and those
from this city the Republican and Tri
blme, circulated so freely with the negroe!
in the lower counties as tn disgust many
of the white Republicans who abandon
ed them and looked more to papers tha
had some regard for their own race They
become so exceedingly liberal that mar
rage notices of negroes were frequently
published, without designating the color
and as it is the custom of the negroes tO
assume the names of the whites, an EN-
barrassment was created that was ex-
tremely unpleasant. On one occasion
gentleman had to write to his friends a
home to know whether his intended hat
Tilted him or not OF course these thing
disgusted the whites and they had resor
to the Democratic papers.
But the negroes were never allowed b
the Radicals to read the Democratic pa
pers; and thus the Republican papers, ian
with Mr. Hayes assent, tried to keep q
solid negro South. When they coul
not do this then solid South becam
very dangerous indeed.
But what are the results? A solid Den
cratic South is now the most peacefl
