one place only, but in every place where
the ignorant negro has been compelled by
force and by fraud to depend upon the
kindness" Of their abolition friends. And
now nothing works more to the disadvan-
tage Of the negro laborers in the South
than the U. 5. banking system, which
gives all the money to the East and the
North and leaves the South and Wesi
with none, and at the same time depriv
ing them of the privilege the consttu
tion of the U. S. always granted prior t
| 1862 to create banks in the States to fur

SALE OF BoSDs.-The City Council
has ordered the sale of bonds 10 the
amount of S145, 900 at per cent, to fund
a floating debt. These bonds ike the
last, we presume, will be snapped up al
once.
Had it not been for the weak opposition
the Deldtcdredn made to converting the
State debt we are convinced that the
State Senate would have considered the
bill for this purpose earlier than it did ;
and in that case the bill would have pass

weeks previous. The government is now
Offering the 40s, (6 per cents.) at per

rapidly The bonds of this State are
just as good, and they would have sold
all the better because of the States ability
and purpose to pay off part OF them, say
fifty thousand dollars worth, every year
The people do not want bonds that are
to run many years. They would preie
bonds that are to be paid in ten years
The Europeans prefer bonds for lon,
period we know but the people consde
that they may have use for their none ?
1t is little curious that since the finan
cial troubles in Europe the English lhre,

The New York World, to the surpri.

The New York World, to the surprise
of everybody, has taken ground in favor
of a coalition between the Democrats,
Greenbackers and Socialists. 1t sees no
reason why they should not form one
party, since the currency question is to a
great extent settled, and the objects of the
three parties are identical, so far as a
reduction OF the national expenses are
concerned. The World is one of those
journals that seem to be ever jumping
from one conclusion to another. There
never was any objection to Greenbacker
or a Socialist voting the Democratic
ticket, and like all other voters these
gentlemen are invited to come into the
Democratic organization at the primaries
and help to make up the ticket and elect
it. In Delaware every man, without re-
gard to aDtecedents, has right to parti'
clpate in Democratic meetings and cleo
tions in fact it is his duty to help make
the government better, as he wishes to
enjoy its benefits.

TIE NEGRO EXODUS, it is said, has al
ready reached its climax, and great num-
bsrs of the poor deluded blacks are en-
deavoring to return to their homes in
Mississippi from which they were induced
to leave by the wild stories of the forty
acres and mule by heartless Northern
schemers in Kansas. They ate. begging
their way back In small companies and
squads. Thousands of them of course
will be unable to procure the means OF
returning, and these will either perish
miserably or exc out precarious livei-
hood by hard and unfamiliar work on
the railways which, oddly enough, hap
pened to be projecting or building in the
regions to which this sudden exodus of
cheap African labor has been SO mysteri-
ously invited.
Fred. Douglass, the negro U. S. Mar
shal and companion of Hayes, in a recent
lecture at Frederick, Nd, attributed the
cause OF this negro emigI alton from their
Southern homes, to the manner in which
the negroes were forced back into con-
dition of slavery. "This," he said, ssis
being done by system of overcharging
through which the blacks are kept al
ways in debt to their employers, who
take advantage OF the ignorance of the
colored people to practice the greatest
extortion upon them ard defraud them
out OF their wages ny furnishing them
with supplies at enormous prices, and
thus forgetful of the truth cont aimed in
Scripture, they grind Gods poor in the
expectation that it would bring to them
Ohe employers) some temporary advanta-
tages." In his advice to the colored peo-
pie, he said: "Remember there is no
royal road to success II this country.
Honesty and Industry are the true means
to excellence. Labor should be honored
Douglass and every other man who has
any sense knows there Is no money
in the South with which to pay
wages. Douglass gets about ten thousand
year out Of his Office, but we don't heal
of his doing anything practical for his
race. He could find fitting theme fol
several interesting lectures to the negroes
If he would illustrate properly, aud a,
he should, how the party he is lecturine
to benefit used the Freedman's Banking
Association, at his place of residence, tc
cheat the negroes out of their earning.
The Radicals have cheated the negroes in
more rascally and heartless manner
than we ever supposed one people could
cheat their race. And this has been

SeaSOnable Hints.

The vitality Of seeds may be tested BY
placing samples of almost any of the lar
ger kind of seeds or kind of grains upon
a hot pan or grddle. When the seeds are
good and the vitality is perfect, the spec
linen will crack or pop open with more
Or less noise on the other hand, if the
seed is not good or the vitality is defect
i've, it will remain still and burn. This
is much quicker and surer way of test
ing seed, than to plant in earth or warm
water To test them in this way il is
not necessary that the seeds be perfectly
dry, although they should not be toe
moist. Seeds should not be kept too dry
an airy but moderately dry quarter gar
ret is the best place to keep them.
