The German Socialists.

The Philadelphia Ledge' says the
German Socialists, who are coming to
this country in body, are not likely to
prove much OF an acquisition. Although
they may BE- friends of labor in sentl-
mental sense, they are not personally
inclined to labor themselves. On the
other hand they are not likely to prove
as dangerous as some people imagine,
Tor they will not here be "muzzled mar
tyrs," but will have sach publicity
tiven to their sayings and doings that
their folly will be made appar' Mt to
every body. Nevertheless, a proposl
ton to have a National moral quaran-
tine against them has been widely
published, and the argument has been
lngeniously turned from the question
whether it is desirable to forbid their
coming, to that of whether Congress
has the power to forbid their coming.
1t is argued that such power is implied
in that section of the Constitution
which (without using the word
slayes) denied TO Congress the pow
rr to prohibit the migration or I'M
portation of such persons ''prior to the
year 1905" 1t is necessary to follow
this argument, for, admitting the right
OF Congress to prohibit the migration OF
importation of German Socialists, the
much more important question whether
it should do 30 remains unanswered. A
great deal of Fourth of July eloquenct
about the home of the oppressed would
90 to waste if any such moral quaran
tinen should be adopted, and the etfor'
to keep out foreign Communists would
galvanize into new life those We already
have among US. This is an excellent
country in which to put an end TO the
Socialism bred in Europe under condl
tions favorable to its growth, and there
is no quicker way of killing it than by
allowing It to come out and 60 unno'
ticed, so long az it break no law.

IT Is said in Washington that Mr..
Mcpherson resigned his lucrative Office
there and went to Philadelphia to take
charge of the Press in the interest OF
Mr.. Blaine for the Presidency. But
many things are said in Washington
that are not true and this may be one
OF them.

The VOTE Of South Carolina for Gov
ernor was, for Wade Hampton. ll9, 1853,
for all others 2l2. Hampton persuaded
the Repu licans, with an unquestioned
majority Of the votes Of the State, not
to nominate a candidate in opposition
to himself, and then gave his counte-
nance to the organized frauds on the
ballot box by which Republicans were
deprived of representation in the Leg
islature an in Congress. The colored
men are not far wrong when they call
such trickstars "mean white trash. "

The Norristown Herald condenses a
half dozen first class political speeches
into the following paragraph, and the
nail is struck exactly on the head: "Oul
Democratic cotemporaries say the ad-
ministration has resumed waving the
bloody shirt. II the South has not re-
sumed staining that garment with gore,
its waving would not have been resum-
ed. To wave it seems to be a greater
crime in the eyes ofthe Democracy than
TO shed blood and stain it."

THE TRUSTEES OF THE Poor of New

Thursday, the farm situated near Hare's
Corner, containing about $50 acres, to
James Mccoy, for $l3, 600, being $72.22

intention of erecting the almshouse
upon it, but when the cost of the build
Ings we're computed, and the inconve-
nieAce of the location considered, the
project was abandoned. The farm has
been rented, but under the best man
agement, counting the cost of limeing,
repairing buildings, etc., the expenses
have exceeded the income some $500 or
800 per annum. Under these circun-
stances the trustees can not be cen

THE PHILADELPHIA Ereaing Bulletin,
hardly sees the JOnes-Dodson affair in
the same light as do some of the
Democratic journals, especially the CO.
zette of this city. Here is the way it
talks:
"Nobody supposed that the New Cas-
tie jury in the Dodson case would con-
vict respectabl white people Spon the
testimony of a mere nigger. 1t was
proved apparently that the black wit
ness is fearful liar; but no attempt
vas made to explain how he happened
to b4 shot nearly to pieces unless the
accused persons shot him. 1t may be-
however, that this depraved African
shot himself full of holes expressly fol
the purpose of making out cast
against TIE respectable white people
Nobody knows what infamy very
wicked negro liar will not stoop to-"
The Bulletin, could have added al
the same time, that the negro walked
80 miles that dark dismal night t,
shoot himself in Delaware.

Already read by three generations, now enters
into its sEvENTY.NINTH VOLUME.
Few newspapers in the country have lived so
long; nowhere enjoyed more the confidence of
the people.
The GAZETTE will put forth its utmos en-
deavor to continue model newspaper, and its
success during this entire century in catering to
the wants and meeting the wishes of the people,
guarantees that with this paper promise means
performance
Washington is now the point to which all eyes
look and all ears are directed. Almost at the
base of the Capital, and yet in Virginia town,
amid community which has proved its faith
fulness to Virginia in mora than one fiery trial :
| surrounded by the traditions and hopes of the
Commonwealth, the Gszatte has position
unique among journals and promises to continue
worthy of it. Its contiguity to Washington
gives it an early precedence over all the jour-
nails of the State in intelligence Of the operations
| of the General Government, now of such vital
importance to the people. The proceedings of
Congress will be regularly reported in succinct
form for it's columns, but all matters of special
interest to Virginia will be given in detail. Two
gentlemen connected with the paper are con-
stantly at the Federal capital, and the Wash
ington news Sc :le Gazette has for long time
been the fountain of Washington news for the
State.
As the interests of the people mainly centre at
home no pains will bs spared to chronicle all
matters occurring in the city and neighborhoodl
carefully excluding unseemly expressions or
gross narrative as unfit for journal that is
treasured at many thousand hesrthstones of
Virginia.
From the State Capital il will receive early
and accurate accounts Of the proceedings Of the
General Assembly and of all the operations of
the State government likely to interest the pso-
pie.
Especial attention will be devoted TO present
ing, as we'll from original sources of information
as from its exchanges the news of Virginis
Concisely and completely it will give the news
of the world.
In its Commercial columns the especial fsa-
ture will be promptness and accuracy. The
farmers, drovers and commercial people Of the
State know they MAY DEPEND upon the
Gazette.
Early aud reliable reports of the Grain. Cattle,
| Grocery and other markets will be furnished,
| and the prices and position of the stocks, which

| section of the country. carefully quoted.
The continual favors of thoes who have once

Wsrrsutfor saying that it pays to advertise in its
columns.
