THE GAZETTE FOR 1870.

The Baltimore Gazette Is daily newspaper
which appea.s TO the public solely on its merits
as journal Of the day. IL Is compendium OF
news nj home and abroad, each event being writ
ten prepared and edited according 20 its relative
Importance. Not a line appears in the Gazette
which Is not useful or instructive. IL essays to
give the news in a nutshell and at price IN
Keeping with the economical demands OF the
times.
The Gazette has opinions and IL expresses them
daily in terse and pointed English. u is thor
oughly Democratic in its teachings and ienden-
ces but independent ofall corrupt rings, cliques,
or faetious Oligarchies. The Gazette believes
that the principles Of the Democratic party should
prevail. To that end il will labor TO place the
Democratic party in power AMI thereby bring
about much-needed change in the adminisira-
ton Of the Government In Municipal, state,
and National politics, The Gazette will lend its
aid TO the representatives Of Democratic princi-
pies. A great struggle for political mastery Is
coming on. In hs8O another battle for the Pres
ideney will be fought. The importance Of such
a newspaper as The Gazette in educating, organ
izing and preparing the people for this contest
cannot be over estimated. The News, Editorial,
and Local features Of The Gazette will be thor
oughly maintained and improved during the
year. The department. Of Foreign CorresPon-
dence has attained a standard uneqnaIed in Bal
tiHore journalism, and as a whole there Is no
daiIy journal In the country which contains 50
many popular features furnished at such popular
prices.
The Baltimore Weekly Gazette Is a folio jour
nal, same size as the Daily, which contains eve
nv week an epitome Of Home and Foreign News,
Charming stories, Entertaining Miscellany, Com
pIete Market Reports, Correspondence, Editorials
and Family Reading, all selected with care and
with especial reference 20 the needs Of people who
are unable By reason Of location or circumstances
20 take a daily paper.
The Baltimore Daily Gazette Is furnished At
Sc Der year 10 mail subscribers postageincluded.
Il Is delivered by carriers at ~ cents per week
and il sold in single copies for cents.
The Weekly Gazette il mailed 10 Subscribers
at the rate Of 81 per year; six months, 80 cents.
Price and all things considered, The Daily and
Weekly Gazette are the best papers printed on
the South Atlantic SeaboaTd, and we hope dur
ing the coming year 10 add thousands Of names
70 our lists in Baltimore and contiguous sections.

"THg Solid SoUTH.''-The cry OF
intimidation and "solid South" has long
been known among intelligent men Of
both parties b be . mi, erabie cheat in-
tended TO revive sectional hate among
the ignorant classes al the North and
float worthless radical politicians awhile
longer. 1t is still kept up, however,
and the late Congressional election ap-
pears TO have furnished il additional
pabuIum. AtIeasttbe republican news
paper organs are ringing the changes
upon Il at this writing and are trying to
make believe that there is no free bal
lot for the black man al the South nor
even for white republicans. In the
first place, we never heard anything ol
the "soIid South" when the South un-
der The reconstruction laws sent 'sol-
id" delegation oi carpet.baggers TO Con-
gress and the cOlored people Ofthis sec-
tios acted en- masse with the'Tadical
Togues and plunderers who have since
been sent to the penitentiary. IL is
only since The Llack race IN the Caro-
linas and Gull States commenced voting
with the democrats and turned the tide
in favor Of the native whites that in
tImidation and solid South have become
calamities not TO be borne, and il Is
only since this time also that certain
Northern Lights Of Republicanism have
made the discovery that the power OF the
South in Congress should be curtailed
even il suffrage should have TO be taken
from the blacks. Instead of becoming
as had been expected, an element Ol
strength TO Northern capitalists, cOrpO-
Tations and money-chsngers, the color
ed vote has become a great Southern
force which threatens all Eastern monop.
olies. Hence the knavish cry Of in
tImidation from republican newspapers
and the real anxiety Of Blaine and other
Northern republican leaders. We dc
not, OF course, approve OF intimidation
II the ballot is not free, il is worse than
worthless, and is dangerous TO free insti'
tuiions, but this we say, admittingintim'
idation to be as complete and reckless a
the South as charged, il is certainly no
worse there than Butler represents II Il
have been in Massachusetts at the late
election. He says "that the intimida
ton of white voters in Massachuset
during the recent election was as fla
grant as ever the intimidation Of colorcC
voters in the South was charged to be,
and that "the interference with tht
'-s-----4--A--.- tTS
saw fit, though more cunningly man
aged IN Massachusetts, than in the South
was based on the same theory in poll
tics" From all this IL will be seen
that the "solid South is only abomina
bic when il is solid against carpet-bag
gers and scallawags and that "intimida.
ton" is not to be tolerated, except wher
applied to poor, defenceless white mer
in Massachusetts, and in the interest o.
republican monopolists

ored man is not so dull that ne does not
see this; and in all matters IN which
sectional interest is involved, as soon
as he sees his interest, he Is bound to
be the hottest kind oi SoUtherner.-
He will be more sectional than the
white man, because many whites are
connected by ties Of kindred and by
participation of infqsest. Northern with
Southern and Southern with Northern
men. Not so the colored man; all has
race and his kin are in the South. He
owns no stock nor bonds in Northern
ventures. He does not care whether
Massachusetts, mills run, or New York
ships sail, whether railroads make pro-
| fits or banks declare dividends or
not. The North is not his country,
but the South is; and eventually he
is sure to identify himself with his own
section and ignore all the rest. The
sure perception of interest will pre-
dominate over has sentimental tIe el
gratitude for the freedom which the Re-
publicans claim to have conferred on
him, and which debt Of gratitude he
thinks is pretty well cancelled already
by the way they robbed him Of bis
earnings through the instrumentality ol
the Freedman's Bank.
Ii is because the Republicans see that
the colored people are becoming strong
and important auxilaries OF the Demo.
Gratis that they are moving to deprive
them of their votes. They put it on
the plea of ofintimidation and interference
by the white people; but they care little
for The truth or justice of the plea
The colored man does not vote with
them any longer. He will vote with
them less and less every year, and
so the Republicans are making up
their minds to take away the colored
mans vote.
Every colored man who, in The face
of this fact, aids TO bring into Powe'
the Republican candidates is strength
ening a movement the object Of which
is his political extinction.
