Fred. Douglass.

WARRINGTON, H. T., March ~.
To he Ediior Of the NniiDun Rrpubiirnn:
SIR 1t may be proper for me to say | am
very much Obliged to THE REPTRLICAS for
considering my political views and wants as
worthy of public notice aud consideration, and
may add, not to speak dsrcsprrlfulv, !
should be UNNECESSARILY moro Obliged If my
views aud wants were stated u litllc more
truly or not stated at all. | clip the following
from THE REPCBIICAS this morning, which
suppose was copied from some other paper, as
an instance of the thing of which have u
right to complain:
FRED DOrGL\SS wants GRAST In 1889 but DOuG-
Lass never hal any Office under GRANrI>M. Are
negroes, like other Republicans, unSratc-
Any one reading that ofi.hand. free and. easy
statcmc~t would suppose was derived from
and based upon some uttcrance ofmmc, but such
u suppOsitiOn would be wholly wrong. | have
made no such declaration lS-O Is yet atar or
aud am too much an admirer of ABRAHAM
LINCOLN to cross II stream before | come to it.
| am willing to wait. The Republican party
has in 1t too many able and true men from
whom 1t may be wise to select u candidate
when the time arrives to make it proper now
l., select one to the exclusion of all others.
Times change, and men sometimes change
with them. 4 nomination quite fit to be
made to-day may be quite unit to be made
| three years hence. Sufficient unto the day."
&C. When ! shall have occasion to publish
my iTtslE'H'ldi pTticicHc'S SHhil NOT neeu u
! prOmptcr or an interpreter, and nothing will
be left To inference or conjecture. Very re-
spectfully yours,
FREDERICK DOUGLASS.
As the case stands Ostensibly Mr.. DOUu-
LASS has a right 90 complain; but when
the real truth and intentions connected
with the matter are understood he will all
solve The REPUBLICAN from being even u
"prompter, much less an interferer," with
his Presidential preferences. The paragraph
in question involves one of those mex plica-
bic bluudcrs which arc incident to the Use
OF types. The paragraph got into the pOlit-
ical notes Of the paper in its present shape
inadvertently. II was clipped from another
journal with the intention of correcting its
statements relating to Mr.. DOUGLASS and
General GRANTS administration, but UNI
fortunately it found place in the paper in
an incomplete shape and without the in
tended correction.
We give Mr.. DOUGLAss this assurance
aud he ought to know that he is held in too
high respect by the editor of this journal
to allow its columns to be used Intentionally
| in way TO make him and the paper both
appear US ridiculou>ly as this item III its
present shape represents them. We com
mend his discretion in waiting for the fit
time when Presidential preferences can be
properly expressed, That psriOd has not Us
vet arrived

MR.. 1IowE's speech, expected next Mon
day in the Senate will undoubtedly be
worth listening to as he never fails to say
something worthy of attention when he
takes hold of an important subject, such,
Tor instance, as the one he has chosen as the
text for his remarks on that occasion. Al
though the Louisiana muddio has been
talked of almost intorminably, its later lca-
lures, including the incarceration of Colonel
Ton ANDERSON, have not been discussed
except incidentally in the newspapers. SEN
ator HOWE will, therefore have the advnn-
tagc of an opportunity to talk about fresh
developments in conspiracy which has
not had its equal in the violation of citi-
zcns' rights Since the beginning OF our Gov
eminent.

THE German Prime Minister knows some
things, and knows them well. lie knows that
the Bosphorus is full of Russian torpedo boats,
that, like the Quaker guns at Manassas
though frightful in appearance, are harm

An examination of the list Of the imme-

thirty are Republicans. Verify this IL a

NOT one-half the delinqucncics irregular
itics, "Rawness in Position" or violations Of
law, or whatever you call it or them, Of
which Doorkcepcr POLK has been guilty
have been made public, nor has the press of
the country teemed with denunciations and
criticisms of this generous and yielding
official as it would have teemed and tcemed
and kept on teeming If the offender had
been Republican and had put to shame,
as POLK has, the loltiest ambition for the
use Of political patronage in defiance of Re-
form. The sum of several thousand dollars
was expended in investigating him-a mere
bagatelle by comparison with the
cost Of other similar Investigations
and. somehow the result has fallen
fiat on the country. But it should be
remembered that the people have become
used to such things under Democratic rule
-satiatcd, so to speak, so that this exposure
is robbed of the racy attractiveness of nov.
