The special correspondent Of the Wash
ington Post sends from Raleigh a long let.
ter, IN which is an account Of sundry inter
views with citizens of our capital, of both
parties. Mr.. Richard C.. Badger gives a
good account of the condition of the colored
people. He says they are as we'll treated as
anywhere in the world, He said among
other things:
| know of no reason why they should leave
this county. | am satisfied that they will
all soon be destitute in North which is diff
ferent from this section. Here they never
work on Saturdays, and two or three days
per week will support anybody. The only
result | can see of exodus is that they are
going to suffer by it.
Ex-Governor Holden gave similar testimo-
ny as to the treatment and condition of the
negroes. We quote:
Ex-Governor Holden, postmaster, had
heard very little of the exodus, but knew
of no oppression of the colored race more
so than poor whites. In nine out of ten cases
where the negro conducts himself d~ecently
and properly. he receives justice from the
courts and magistrates just as promptly as
the white man in this Or any other State.
He had heard of no cases for Il year or two
OF oppression.'
He said they had improved very greatly
and had the same school advantages as the
whites. He saw no reason for any class to
be dissatisfied now. Let it he remembered
that Mr.. Badger and Gov. Holden are pro-
nOurced Republicans.
Col. Ike Young looked at the matter diff
ferentlv. Out of ali the interviews his is
the only one that bears unfriendly upon the
whites. He believe the negroes were leav-
ing because ''of the counting out of the Re
publican Congressional nominee in the Sc
cond District. This made them think their
rights are not secure.' This is extremely
thin. Think of the most ignorant of their
race, without money. fleeing thousands of
miles into a cold and inhOspitable region
lust because Il negro of bad character was
supposed to have been counted out by a
Returning Board. Colonel Ike is shrewd and
smart, and he smiled inwardly y. no doubt,
when he poured that "leetle yarn into the
auricular receptacle of the Washington re-
porter. He told the said reporter, and very
rravelv. no doubt, that Gin our elections
here in North Carolina) the election ma
chinery cheats them out Of thousands Of
votes under the form of law That cruel
and remorseless re~gtstrattoa does this terri
bic work. Well, this is awful. But, come
now, Colonel. is it truel Why, he knows he
can stand in 'front.' Of the Marlborough House
any night and blow his horn and send out
his henchmen, and in an hour he can gath
er the faithful SO Metropolitan Hall shall be
overrun. He knows that nc army was ever
better disciplined than the negroes in cleo
ton times-that they are thoroughly posted
as to what is expected Of them. and that
they are submissive and pliable. The trouble
is. it is not that they do not vote at all, but
that many Of them vote too often Va.
