Now we learn from the Democratic eau
Gus resolutions that the fifteenth amend
ment did not confer the right of suffrage
upon the blacks of the South. 1t did not
even create u new class of voters in that
section or elsewhere. This knowledge, it
will be remarked, has been held back from
the people Of the North, aud has never been
disclosed even to the authors of that amend
ment for years and years, during which it
rested securely and exclusively in the states
manlike brains of the Bourbon Democracy.
Now, however, it is given to the country
with all the yicarious power Of series of
caucus resolutions as the fixed platform of
the Democracy, and, what makes it more
authentic, those resolutions are indorsed by
X-Brigadier- General JOHS I. MORGAN, of
the Confederate States. We live and learn.

dent, Hancock for Vice President, the
military subordinate to the civil power, in
accordance with Gen. Haneock's ayowal
at New Orleans. This ticket, its friends
profess to believe, would carry the States
Of New York, New Jersey, Connecticut,
aud Indiana; which, with a solid South,
would be more than sufficient to elect a
president. OF course, such ticket would
not suit the Tilden.or.nothing men, aud
the Democratic party seems unable to
concentrate its choice upon any one, as yet,
The ensuing session of Congress may pos

The Washington correspondent Of the
Baltimore Sun, under date Of November
18th, says;
In none Of the calculations which have been
made as 10 the probabilities Of the republicans
regaining control Of the Senate in 1881 has
there been taken into consideration the con.
tingeney Of q democratic Senator from Cali.
fornia, to succeed Governor Booth. Il has
been assumed as matter Of course that the
republicans would have control Of the Cali.
fornia Legislature, but the democrats have a
much better chance TO carry California than
the republicans have TO carry New Jersey and
Indiana, both Of which States they are con-
iidently claiming. The straight.out republi-
cans in the California Legislature chosen in
September last are in q minority, and the re-
publicans were IN minority Of more than
zo,O00 on the popular vote. Next year the
opposition will almost certainly be united, and
the prospects, therefore, for democratic or
an anti-republicau Senator may Be looked
upon as very good
The Democratic advocate., 1879-11-15

Under the above caption the Baltimone
-AmeTicaa, Of Tuesday, has an article Of
mingledabase and advice -sbuse Of former
legislatures and advice to the next Al
the oaiset Of the article, almost, the Amer-
ican says "The Democratic majority in the
Legislature has never been accustomed to
show much respect to the rights Of the
minority" aud to this part only we pur-
pose to allude, If the Amer;can will look
back few years, ii win observe that when
the Republican party--a minority party
propped up by prOscriptiye laws and fed
eral bayonets-held power in this State,
the Democratic mgority had no rights the
Radical minority respected; aud if it win
turn to It's own files ii viii observe how
strenuOusly it supported the proscriptive
policy of the Radical party. They never
gave Democrats any rights. When their
Republican governor proposed to have the
elections a little more fair and honest, his
appOintees Of judges Of election were i'm
prisoned upon false charges 50 that they
could not act. When their legislature
was petitioned for q change in the regis
tration laws, so that Democrats could vote,
that body not only refused to make any
change but passed resolutions eulogizing
the AmericaR for its stand against any al
terations in the law. When the Repub-
lican party governed in Maryland, every
school commissioner, every registrar, every
judge aud clerk Of election was of their own
political faith, and every other Office under
the control of the Radical government was
similarly filed. Yet, the american COM
plains that the Democratic majority is not
accustomed to show much respect to the
rights of the minority.
What have the Democrats done toward
giving the Radicals q recognition? ? A
Democratic legislature has given their
party representation in the school boards.
A Democratic legislature has given their
party judge of election at every voting
precinct. a Democratic Legislature has
given the State registration law which
entities every man to register and vote,
Republican as well as Democrat.
This is but part Of the record, yet it is
sufficient to show the magnanimity Of the
Democratic party as compared with the
Radical. 1t is sufficient, also, to show the
brazen effrontery of the american in its
complaint against Democratic legislatures,
and its impudencc in suggesting to the
legislature what it should do in what it
terms respecting the rights of the minority.
