Whites. S5s: colored. 3.l5s. In 1876 the Re-
turning Board reported 3207 votes for Presi-
dent HAYES and AGA for Mr.. Tilden. The
democratic count was the same. Thus, in a
parish where the negroes outnumber the
whites by more than twelve to one, and where
their voting strength is nearly nine times as
large as that of the whites, the democrats
claim gain of :, ,33s votes in two years, and
credit the republicans with a loss of 3,ll1

Ex-Governor Hoffman made speech
at Albany on the subject of Andrew
Jackson which does not dovetail with the
speeches of Thurman and Ewing. While
they declared war on the banks and ad-
vocated making the government bank
of issue. he declared that the immortal
Jackson, were he alive now, ''would be
most open in his condemnation of every
proposition which aimed to convert the
federal government into a great banking
institution with sower to issue unlimited,
irredeemable paper money-a bank, the
directors Of which would be the members
Of Congress, and the officers of which
would be the mere appointees of political
conventions and committees The har-
mony of the glorious democracy is becom-
ing prodigious.
The national hanks have never monopo-
lized the business of banking. They do
not monopolize it now. The Comptroller
of the currency in his latest report says ::
Son May 31st of this year, there were in
existence more than 300 State bank and
private banking houses, having an aggre-
gate capital of 202 millions of dollars,
and deposits of i13 millions. These bank
ing establishments are located in all the
principal cities and villages of the coun-
try, and it is to be presumed that if the
privilege of issuing circulating notes were
50 great as it is persstently claimed to be,
these associations and individuals, who
are already engaged in the business of
banking, and who are free to enter the ma
tional system, would hasten to organize
under that system" Let the villifiers of
national banks make note of this.

The democratic Governor of Delaware
speaks in his message in favor of "those
institutions and dinstrumentalities which are
necessary adjuncts to every complete and
well-ordered governmental organization,
such as State work-house for the profita-
BILE employment and wholesome correction
of criminals, especially those of youth
full age; a State asylum for the insane,
with suitable provision for the blind. deaf
and dumb and the like; thorough pub
lie school system; an efficient militia force
adequate to the maintenance OF the su-
premacy of the civil power in every emer-
gency, and all other useful and proper
public agencies which may not be incom-
patible with sound policy and the public
welfare"
