DEMAND FOR Corn IN NEW ORLEANS
From the New Orleans Times, November
18th. las an evidence OF the immensely OF
business now being transacted in this State,
it is worthy OF note that the supply OF cur
rency has run short, and that the people,
whether they like or dislike it, are com.
pelted DO receive gold and silver Four
weeks ago the authorities at the mint were
deeply concerned as 10 whether or not they
would be able to get rid of their immense
stock of gold and silver coin this season;
for they recognized that unless they should
succeed in doing sol. e., in making
New Orleans distributing point for silver
the Mint would have to be closed as use
less financial machine. The question now
is not how to get rid of the coin, but how
to supply the demand being made upon
their vaults. The banks are daily sending
to the Esplanade-Strect establishment for
coin, and cabs heavily loaded with wealth
may at all times be seen securing through
the streets. The same thing is true with re-
gard to the Sub-Treasury. Gold is there
being paid ont at the rate Of S350.000 per
week, and silver coin in sums Of from SlO,-
600 to $4,000 per day.

The subject Of the negro vote at the re-
cent election in Virginia is still being dis
cussea in some Of the newspapers not only
within but without the States borders.
There is no doubt that some OF the vote was
cast for the debt-paving candidates. All
the intelligent negroes-those who properly
appreciate the Importance Of complying
with obligations, and all with material in
tereSts to preserye-voted for the support
ers of the McCull0ch bill, as did the Conser-
natives, not because that bill was entirely
satisfactory, but because it was the best
that could be obtained under the circum-
stances. and would accomplish what all the
true friends of the State desired-the settle
ment of the debt auestion-an let the capt.
tai and immigration know what they might
expect ii they came to Virginia. But it; is
no less true that the number so voting

The two men to whom the Democracy OF
the South look with eager and earnest eX-
pectation are Horatio Seymour and Thomas
F. Bayard. No man who has risen to emf
nepce in the State OF New York ever held
the confidence OF the people more firmll
than Horatio Seymour. His name is the
ralIyin. cry for the Democracy, and were
he to accept the nomination he would carry
that State and be elected President by an
overwhelming majority. 1t is to be re-
GREETED that Mr.. Seymour underestimate
his own physical strength, and steadfastly
refuses to be considered any longer in the
political arena. He is in far better condi-
ton than Tilden, who, bis friends insist, is
simply holding out against the inevitable

ing his funeral expenses" II Mr.. Sey-
mour maintains his present attitude, we

and intrepid leader in Thomas f. Bayard.

or private, beyond reproach in his social
and political life, a man against whom even

Democratic vote throughout the South,
and carry without doubt New York, New

The Negro Vote.

The New York Times does not under
stand much about Virginia elections. AS
an instance OF its INSTRUMENTATION, we quote
the following:
"The Dispatch asserts that one third OF
the Readiusters' vote was cast by the ne
groes. This, we suspect, Is an eXaggera-
ton, as that would imply vote OF about
10000 negroes directly with the Democratic
party, and would make fully one third Of
the negroes Democrats, which conflicts with
reports from other sources equally trust
worthy. But that the negro vote was very
generally cast for reputation is too true,
and is not creditable to the political educa-
ton that they have received from the party
With which they have heretofore generally
acted.'
The votes cast by the negroes for Re-
adiusters were cast either for Republican
Rcadiusters, or else for Readiusters proper
in counties and districts wherein there
were no Republican candidates.
But the negroes, as we have said over
and over again, did not, except in lew To-
calities, vote for reputation. They voted
against the regular Conservative party, as
they supposed.
We claim no negroes as Democrats. we
don't think there are thousand sucn IN the
Stale OF Virginia.

the real evil is. These South Carolina tax

cause they are black. They would do the
same to the "poor whites" il they, having
the numerical force, should enact: the
