a Dastardly Attempt.

The intelligence that O. second
attempt in three weeks has been
made to assassinate tho Emperor Of
Germany, has caused q shock. No
sovereign in Europe is moro uni-
versally respected and admired than
Kaiser Wilhelm, while by his own
people he is revercd rs father. tits
gratifying to learn that despite his
great ago Of oighty-two years he is
an fair way to recover. This
would-be assassin cannot be hanged
too speedily as warning to other
murderous villains. This is the
fourth attempt on the life Of Etnpe~
ror William, tho two first occurring
many years ago.

promised Office if they "stood by the
party" Yielding to these promises
he forged the proper papers. Be-
coming angry with his confedcratcs,
he. offered the Democrats for 81, 900
to reveal tho whole conspiracy.
While they were considering the
proposition, the news of the Oregon
vote was received, and Anderson
received the cold shoulder. He
then stuck to his crime, and after
the inauguration of Huyes claimed
his reward. Failing to receive it,
ho now confesses. He produces
the copy of Il letter purpoting to be
from Sherman, in which he is prom.
ised protection and Office. Sher-
man on being questioned about tho
latter made evasive replies, Of the
following import:
1 can only say this, that I believe
upon my responsibility and the outh
l have taken that I never wrote
snch letter I have no recollec-
tion OF ever writing such letter {;
if this letter was written, it must
have been, if I am not mistaken
about the dates, on the day when
the returning officers first convened
to open the returns I think it was
On the goth ; at that time 1 knew
but little about the transaction the
papers had not been opened T do
not believe ever wrote that letter;
at the same time there are things
in this letter that I would have
said to these or any other men who
were engaged in the performance of
what ] believed to be their duty, if
J. had been asked, but I 10 not
believe I wrote that letter.
This shifting and quibbling by
the Secretary was a great disap-
pointment to tho Republicans, while
the Democrats believe they can
prove the guilt of the Visiting
Statesmen even more clearly. A
letter from Hayes has been pro-
duced, recommending Anaersons S
appointment as special case. All
this has an ug'y look, even to the
conservative correspondent of the
New Yocls Herald.

After Sherman with a Sharp Stick.

facts about Secretary Sherman and

that the Radicals purposely re-
trained from voting in the Fell
ciana and other Democratic parishes
in order to cry fraud and thus
throw out these counties. He was

zion was perfectly fair, the blacks in

Colored Democrats.

Considerable discussion has been
evoked by the query whether col i,
ored membership TO the Democratic
clubs should be solicited or not
The Ne,os and Courier, after re-
viewing the discussion, continues as
follows
If the colored people are willing,
however, to become Democrats in
good faith, it will require grave
deliberation to determine whether it
is not wiser to let them in, and give
them voice in the party, than to
leave them outside as bait for
Independent Democrats. The In
dependent, not the colored Demo-
erat, is the rock ahead in South
Carolina politics, and tho more
colored Democrats there are the less
voters will there be to appeal to the
ambition of the Independent and
make him hope that, with their help,
he can defeat tho regular candi-
dates.
That this is matter Of grave de-
liberation mono can gainsay, nor will
many contend thai sincere colored
Democrats should be excluded from
our party organization. But the
question of sincerity is very per-
picking. When colored mon voted
for Hampton in the teeth Of count
less obstacles an:l despite the most
outrageous bulldozing, from the
Federal administration and from
fome Influences alike, they should
be received into full membership
But these eleventh hour colored
Democrats who want to get aboard
now that the ship is in full motion,
should be viewed with suspicion.
Their adDittanco will do moro to
destroy tho party than all the Inde-
pendent moves that can be devise |.
An Independent is obliged to get
outside Of party lines and party
fealty, where all enrolled Democrats
are above suspicion, will mash out
all opposition. But admit M influx
of wolves in sleeps clothing, and
the very men who in tho other al.
ternative would be Independents,
will pander to the prejudices of the
worst elements of tho party, and
thus become the party nominees,
good Democrats being compelled to
support them or to organize bolt,
the latter alternative being impossi-
BILE. New recruits to the Democrat
'cy should be compelled to undergo
the baptism of a general election
before being received into full COM
munion. AS general rule it is
much safer to reject applications
from newly pledged colored Demo-
Gratis, especially those who have
have heretofore been blatant
Radicals. Let us beware of the
Greeks bringing gifts.
