the two are in vigorous contrast, yet in a

The condition Of the negro, Immediately

wildly portrayed by the author In the fol.

II the New York Herald has any dis
tinctiye characteristic whatever, it is to
scent the winning side in political con.
test, and to desert the losing side as rapidly
as possible. 1t is now Topping over to
Garfield as fast as even remote regard
for consistency will permit. In Thurs
days issue it bounces the "solid South"
as follows:
A considerable number OF eminent Dem.
ocratic statesmen have been sitting for the
last lwenty.four hours with their heads in
their hands wondering what 1t was that
struck them on Tuesday.
II they will give US their attention for a
few minutes we will try to tell them.
In the first place the "Solid South"
struck them. There is, as the Herald has
repeatedly urged in the last three months,
no excuse for q "Soltd South" II 10 an
absurd and offensive anomaly. In 1873
the Southern men had q grievance, and
the sensible public made no complaint OF
their solidity. In 1850 they have no
grievance whatever, and the Northern
public, which has not much patience with
mere stupidity, concludes that people who
act as the Southern men are acting In
politics may as well remain In the
minority. That the Northern voters do
not "baie" or fear the South wassufticient-
" shown by the very general Republican
protest against Senator OonkliDg's fierce
attack. Hisspeech for momentimpertlled
The Republican canvass, and caused
such q revulsion as made u imme-
diotely necessary for the Republicans to
'change The subisct" in the West aud talk
about The tariff. But the Northern voter
dislikes mere mulishness; be despises
shsms, and he believes, and Justly, that
the "solid South" 10 sham, without the
least excuse. "What Is it solid for? he
asks. "For tariff reform? No. For free
ships2 No. For economy In public ex.
penditures2 Not at all, but the contrary.
It Ia solid for the Democratic party, that's
oil, aud thereupon the Northern voter
says to himself, "Guess we'd better wait
till those fellows get little common
sense"
In another editorial headed, "Come In
out OF the rain," the Herald gives the fol.
lowing advice to the South:
Isit not time for some OF the Southern
brethren to get in out Of the rain?
They have been following the Demo.

A FAULTY BUILDING.
The "Globe" Prediction Relative to tin
Capitol Verified.

The "Globe" Prediction Relative to the
Capitol Verified.
The GLOBE at the time of its construction,
had frequent occasion to criticise the cheap
and faulty construction OF the new wing of
the State capitol. A visit to Representative
Hall at the present time will convince the most
obtuse and prejudiced observer that the GLOBE
criticisms have been fully justified by results.
The wing was rooted with slate but SO infe-
rior was the material or so bunglingy was the
work of laying the slate. that the roof forms a
most admirable seive, through which with each
rain the water filters with dis
tressing ease. The result is that the
hashy frescoing of the ceiling of Representative
hall presents most demoralized appearance,
the gaudy lines of the frescoer being stained
or entirely wiped out over large portion of
the surface.
If we are not mistaken the State secured q
bond in $4,000, guaranteeing this portion of
the work-as well as others of the cheap con-
struction-for a period of five years. If we
are correct the authorities had better call
time on the contractor, or his bondsmen. The
people when they come to know of the fraud
will demand an accounting.
