Tired Ofthe Ballot.
New York Sun.l

New York SUM-
We are informed by a gentlmsn Of
South Carolina, friend of Wade
Hampton and lifelong Democrat,
that, in view of the frauds at the re-
cent election in that State, many Of
the colored voters have determined 10
call convention of negroes, with the
avowed purpose of petitioning Con-
gress TO take away from them the right
of suffrage. These men despair of
ever giving their ballots the effect
which the Fourteenth Amendment 10
the Constitution was designed to insure.
They say that in the practical working
Of negro suffrage their citizenship
merely adds to the strength of tho
Southern Democracy in Congress and
in the Electoral College, and that they
would rather be unrepresented in the
Government than contribute to the
power of those whom they regard aa
enemies.
Of course the discouraged negroes
have no definite idea how they are to
be relieved of the burden of suffrage,
nor what would be the effect of disfran-
chisement upon their future as a race.
They feel that tn exI eriment has been
Il failure, and in their ignorance OF
constitutional methods they look upon
Congress as a power which can give or
take away at will.
The fact that a considerable party
among the colored voters of South
Carolina has come to such determin-
alton as this, not in order TO afford q
partisan argument for future wavings
of the bloody shirt, but simply in weari
ness and disgust, shows how grave is
the problem which the political condi-
ton of the South presents to the cOun-
try. For years the less intelligent
Republicans of the Northern States
have been taught by their leaders to
believe that the ultimate aim of the
men lately in rebellion against the
Government was to overflow negro
suffrage, if not to restore slavery itself.
What would Charles Sumner or Thad-
deus Stephens have said. twelve years
ago, if they had been told that the
first distinct proposition for the abro-
cation of negro suffrage would come,
not in the shape of a demand from the
whites of the Sonth, but as piteous re-
quest from the blacks themselves
The repeal Of the Fourteenth
Amendment is now as impossible as the
restoration Of the slave system or the
recognition of a States right to Sc
| cede.

The Banks Courting Disaster,

Chicago Tribune.
The New York bankers, led By AEr.
Coe, and acting in the interest Of the.
money lenders, have taken rash step,
and the sooner they recede from it the
better it will befor them. The proposition
to move en- ma@se against the circula-
ton Of the silver dollar is prompted by
the desire to enhance the value of their
money-stock on a gold basis as COM
pared with the value of all other prop
erty They are much deceived in the
intelligence Of the American people rs
they think they can conceal tins fact.
They are equally deceived, in the tenn
per of the American people if they
tAtAk they. can succeed in such a
scheme without exciting resentment.
They will have enough on their hands
TO protect their characters and their
notes of issue, and they are courting
disaster by their imrertiEeRt project Of
defying the law and the people.

STAND BY THE PARTY.
Senator -GOrdOn's Patriotic Appeal
to the Young Men Of the
Country.
SPOKEN AT ATLANTA GA, nov. 81.

You are the coming trustees of
these democratic institutions, and those
institutions rest upon the democratic
principles which I have attempted to
set forth and enforce, and great parties
are the natural and necessary agencies
for the promotion of these principles. In
this connection l wish to repeat the re
mark with which I set out, that in this
country there are only two great par
ties, the Democratic and the Republi
can parties; the one, conceived in pas
sion, born of fanaticism and baptized
in blood, has, from its acces sion to
power, marched with rapid and straight
strides over these principles, over
State governments and the Constitution
to an increase of power in the central
government, the other, beginning its
existence with the Constitution, pro-
claims and defends that instrument as
the fundamental, inviolable, omnipO-
tent character of all rights Of this con-
tinent. One is the party of passion,
power and privilege; the other is the
party of peace, of law and of liberty!
The one Iegislates for classes, for
grasping monoplies, for colossal cor
porations which despoil the people; the
other, confning itself within the limits
of the Constitution, keeps steadily in
view the veal sud safety of all classes,
all communities and all sections Of this
great country.
Where is the room for third party
with such issues as these dividing the
people? 1t would of necessity be
ground to powder between these upper
| and nesher mill-stOnes. 1t would be
but bubble to flash faint and false
hope for time only to burst and van.
/ ish and mingle in the waters of these
great streams.
My young friends, let me say to yo'
with with greater emphasis than
could prior to the Senatorial election
(for having been chosen for six years
seTS,ice no man can charge ne with {
selfish motive), let me say to you tha
! you are not only bringing damage t.
r to this country and destroying the party
: which maintained your principles, bu
you are sapping the foundation Of you
