Editorial Notes From Exchanges
With Comments.
From the Delawarean

While there may have been instan-
ces of crimes by individuals this charge
OF wholesale and organized deprivation
of political rights to negroes, or others
in any southern State is known to be
false, and a base perversion of facts
zan purposes. The Forty sixth Con-
gress will see that Mr.. Hayes and his
subordinates will exercise no authority
not conferred by the Constitution and
laws. The country shall have peace.
We would like our able contem porary
to tell US how Charleston polled $4,000
votes out of population Of so, 900, and
how South Carolina, with 10000 more
Republican voters in it than Democrats,
sent solid Democratic delegation to
Congress also why there was no Re
publican State ticket run in the State
President Hayes will not overstep the
bpunds of his duty, and whatever pow
or is needed will be conferred by the
Congress Of 1881, if not by the presen,
Congress. The Republicans will con
troll Congress yet, so don't be alarmed
The Republicans should see that the
members of their party, whi.e and
black, pay their taxes, and they will
be entitled to vote. Not otherwise.
This is just what the Republicans Of
Kent county wanted to do, but the
Democratic assessors of Kent county
would not assess the Republicans. A
Democratic Levy Court of that county
adjourned night previous to the time
they had promised to assess the colored
people. Only assess all the Republi-
;ans and their taxes will be paid.
From the MiddIetown Transcript
1t is highly probable that in the CON
test of 1880 party lines will be tightly
drawn between the two great political
DO odies that have so veil fought each
other for the past twenty years, and,
whether there may be but two parties
or half score, the Democratic and Re-
publican ranks will be solid, and be.
tween them will come the tug Of war.
Those who have leisure can amuse
themselves figuring on the next Presi-
dental contest in the House, but the
people will elect the man at the ballov
box and what is more, this time they
will see that he gets his seat.
We think our friend Transcript is
correct. 1t will be as it has been for
'wenty years past, the man that Is
elected vii take his seat. There has
been no deviation from this rule since
1850, and from present appearances
there will be no change of politics in
the next Presidency.

suggestion don't seem to strike the
Kent Ne,os as a good idea. We are sorry

The MORNING Herald has given notice
Of the editorial change which has taken
place, the former editor, John O'Byrns,
Esq, retiring with bow, and DR.. g.
Tronp Maxwell coming upon the edi-
torial arena, wreathed in smiles. We
shall miss the terse, pungent editorials
to which We have been accustomed from
the Herald, but the new editor, DR..
Maxwell, has already shown that he
wields sharp, trenchant pen. The
Doctors editorial on the Hull Bisbee
election in Florida, shows that he in
tends to be fair, and tnis propossesses
US strongly in his favor. While bid
ding farewell to the old editor of the

kind to us, we extend to the new edi,
tor hearty welcome and a friendly
hand. The closing paragraph Of his
salulatory we publish
The HERALD will undergo no chang,
in its political principles and afilia'
tiens. A Democrat from conviction, and
against the long traditions Of family
and the potent influence Of the associa
tions of early lite, it will be labor o
love for us to advocate principles which
we believe to be only reflection of tn,
Constitution, and the success Of party
whose supremacy is essential to tht
welfare and permanenSe Of the Govern
ment. But We know that all parties
are composed Of men and We do no
believe that al the reprobates

The nomination OF Gen. Matt Head
as candidate for Governor by the Repub
Leans OF New Hampshire. recalls the
scandal which disgraced tho Democratic
party OF that State in 1875. Gen. Heads
Christian name was Nathaniel. OF his
own motion. he changed il to Matt, and
for more than twenty years he had no
other signature, in Office and in business,
than Matt II ad." BY this name he was
voted for as State Senator in 1874. and
By this name he was returned on the list
revised by the Moderators OF the election,
as provided by law. But q Democratic
Governor, Weston. with his Council,
usurped the functions OF a returning
board. and decided that Gen. Head
name was Nathaniel, and that the ballots
cast for Matt Head" wero blanks. This
gave the district TO his Democratic com
petitor, and. by illegally counting out
another Republican Senator, Arthur
Deering, the Democrats secured ma
jority in the State Senate, 1t was costly
trick Tor the Democrats. Gen. Head,
whose change OF name had meantime
been legslized by act of Legislature. was
elected To the next Legislature by very
large majority His great popularity in
the State WAS increased by the outrageous
conduct Of Weston and his party. and he
will undo Ib!edly make stirring canvass

The officers OF the law in Portland,
the other day, in making search for ille-
climate liquor in certain saloon in that
city, by the merest accident discovered an
ingenious tank Tor conceaing the liquor,
which had successfully defed detection
for two years. An archwsy over d flight
OF stairs had boen filed in with wide
tin tank, thick at the top and thin at the
bottom. This tank was divided into two
equal parts, one-hslf filed with gin and
the other with rum. The top of the tank
was made thick, so that when anybody
trod on the floor above it would not
break. From either end Of the archwsy
rubber pipes passed through the wall TO
a room below, and there met in a casing
in the wall. A spring in the casing
opened small door where two little
faucets were revealed, from which the
rum and gin could be drawn off. The
casing and wall were lsthed, plastered,
whitened and painted. SO as to conceal
the contrabaud arrangements.
