Whv are They Allies Z?

why are the negroes the faithful allies OF
the boilers? Does anybody pretend to be-
lieve that these negroes desire the election
OF General HANCOCK? Does anybody pre-
tend 10 believe that they prefer the national
Democratic party to the Republican party !?
No. Then why are they acting with the
MALONE party? Because they think that
they can by aiding that party destroy the
Democratic party OF Virginia and Of the
country. We do not for moment credit
the story that the negroes acting with the
boilers desire the success OF General
HANCOCK, nor that they wish the tri-
umph OF his party. oh, no. Their mo-
tives are very different. They are actuated
bv hatred OF the Democrats, not by love for
General HANCOCK. The only objection that
any negro has to cooperating with the bolt
ers is that he must thereby vote for electors
who have been recommended TO support
HANCOCK. Our Democratic orators can
easily prove what we have herein said by
the negroes Themselves whenever they find
crowd OF them listening to speeches. Ask
them il they are Democrats. They will
never say eyes" Ask them il they de-
sire the triumph OF the national Democratic
party. They will never reply affirratively.
They might possibly claim to be for HAM,
COCK, having heard bis name called in this
connection, but unless so instructed by their
new masters they will not declare them
selves in favor of the Democratic party.

Maine.

The election Of PLAIsTEp by fsaraIity
seems At last 20 be settled beyond any rea-
sousbie DOUBT. II seems also TO be UNDER
stood that his right to take oace will not
be contested by the Republicans. as they
have all along contended that the constitu-
t,oaM amendment providing that plurality
shall 'eec. would take effect on this election
II ratified by the voters, as it has been.
The next question Is as to PLAisrEDs
preference for President. He has been re.
presented to be Republican, or very
new convert to Democracy. How this may
The It il not important TO know, since ne
lrfslitjes himself that he Is HANCOCK man.
Here is portion Of telegram from under
tiIs own hand:
"BsNeeR, Me-, September 20.
"Dear Siy,--I am engaged here on the
23d. when our Hancock legions celebrate
the glorious results OF our campaign.
..HARRIs NJ. PLAIsTED."
That settles it that he is a HANCOCK man.
And Is there any reason 10 hope that the
Democrats will carry Maine for HANCOCK /?
We have not thought so. Neither did we
hope for their success in the late election In
that State. Yet the Fusionists did succeed
In that election, and they may succeed in
the presidential election. We quote from
the Washington Post extracts from tele-
gram on the subject:
new YORK, September %, 1880.
Among the visitors at the Democratic
headquarters tonight was William A. Crom.
well, one OF the candidates for presidential
elector on the Uuion ticket in Maine. Mr..
Cromwell said as 10 Maine that in all pro-
liability no bolters' ticket will be run; IL II
is, it will not affect the result. There can
be no doubt that the Union electors will
carry Maine. The opposition to Garfield in
the whole State is much stronger than was
that to Davis. Many Republicans who voted
for Davis will support the Union electoral
ticket, and, with the impetus OF the Sep
TENDER victory, am confident that our ma
jority will be over 5000, probably nearly

Address OF James Barron Hope.

Captain Hope, editor OF the Norfolk
Landmarks, has issued an able and elaborate
address TO the voters Of the Second district
In favor Of Hancock and English and Goode,
and in concluding it says:
In this address to you, my fellow-citizens,
have made no appeal to your preiudices
or to your passions. have tried Mr..
Goode by severe standard, and had the
space to embeIlsh tins letter by extracts
from the press and from his published
speeches you would see on the one hand
that he has not only State but national
reputation, and on the other that he
ranks among the foremost debaters OF
the American Congress. Pure and spot
less in lie, able and sagaciOus in council,
faithful and diligent in the public service,
he deserves your support, and | trust on
the day Of election that each patriotic Vir-
gilman ia this district will give his vote for
the regular Democratic electoral ticket,
with John Ecbols, OF Augusta, at its head,
and for John Goode, OF Norfolk, who has
no superior in The Congress which he
adorns by his virtues and abilities. And
now, with the assurance OF my profound
conviction that the heroic Hancock will be
our next President, and that John Goode
is the man of all others to represent this
district in the Congress OF the United States,
| have the honor 10 subscribe myself, with
great respect,
Your friend and felow-citizeD.

One Train Runs Into Another.

tCharlotte IN. e. Observer, Yesterday
The truth OF the oit-quOted remark Of
some railroad man that accidents on the rail-
roads never occur singly has Just received
another illustration. Day before yesterday
the collision on the Richmond and Danvlle
road near China Grove, and at IL O'Clock
the same night the second section OF a
freight train on the Carolina Central railway
ran into the first, considerably damaging the
engine OF the second section and several
box-cars OF the first. 1t appears that the
engineer OF the first section stopped TO get
wood near Lilesville, and 1t was while bis
train was standing there that the other ran
into it. The question as to which OF the
two engineers was to blame rests upon whe-
Their OF not the place where the first stopped
was a regular place for taking on wood.
The one claims that II was not, and the other
that 1t was, and that therefore the engineer
OF the second section ought to have known
that he would stop there. One train was
twenty minutes behind the other. As IL
was, no one was hurt except the engineer
OF the first section, who was thrown from
bis seat and received a few bruises. The
accident delayed the arrival OF the pasSen-
ger train several hours.

-
Msior Nelson, army paylnaster, charged
with being defoulter, and whose sudden
disappearance a few days since formed q
leading basis OF the charge, was late Wed"
nesday evening taken prisoner TO Gov
ernor's Island. He was brought here by
Lieutenant Knight from Kansas City. and
on the arrival OF the train ut Jersey City
was transferred TO the custody OF Captain
Van Andrus, who took him TO the island to
await an examination by the military au-
tborities.
"Have you any explanation you wish to
make in the case 2" tue Herald reporter
asked him after his arrival.

"It certainly is" said the Lieutenant.

and had no difficulty in finding me-"
Nothing further was said Of any i'm
portsnce. The Major looked little weary
after his long journey, but seemed in no
way disquieted on account OF his position
or apprehensiye as to the result. Ii is eX-
pected on the island that a court-martial
will be speedily ordered to try him on a
charge OF being defaulter. Some are OF
the opinion that the matter will be settled
without trial; that he will be able to give
a satisfactory account OF himself, and that
he will retain his position as plymaster.

about six years ago. His family is one OF
the oldest and most wealthy in New Orleans.

Now as HAYEs's majority in the whole
State of Ohio was only 1916 over TIL
DEN, and only 2.747 over all the candi-
dates, 1t is easy to see that II GARFIELD runs
as far behind his party's strength this year
all over Ohio as he did in 1876 in his
own congressional district, he will lack
fifty thousand votes Of carrying the State,
there being twenty congressional districts
in Ohio. There does not seem to be much
delusion about that sort OF calculation.

A SISTERHOOD OF NURSES. baltimore
San. l-During his visit to Paris Archbishop
Gibbons called on the Bon Secours, chart
table order Of nurses in that city, for the
purpose OF making himself thoroughly ac-
quainted with the management OF that in
stitutIOn, with view TO establing like
order in Baltimore at some future day. The
Archbishop states that negotiations have
been opened with the Sisters, with every
Indication OF success, and that it is probable
some OF them will come here when the
project is once fairly started. The Sisters
have house to themselves. and are subject
to the order Of a superior, but instead Of
taking The sick to their house and making a
hospital OF it, they go 10 the bones Of those
in need of nursing, and remain there, watch
ing and caring for them. The Archbishop
intends to do all he can to establish the
order in this city.

Locomotives for Australia.

A bark j. loading at Philadelphia with
nine locomotives, built to order for the
South Australian Government, and an
other vessel is loading at the same port with
new railroad turntables for the same Gov
ernment. 1t is remarked that in Canada
American locomotive builders are having
things pretty much their own way. AL
most their entire railway materials now
come from this country, and there Is strong
tendency in the same direction throughout
Australia and New Zealand. An English
manager OF a foundry at Lancashire writes
that "American houses possess an i'm
mense advantage over us, from the simple
fact OF their being able to supply standard
types, for which special appliances may
economically be provided. whereas In this
country every locomotive engineer II guided
by and follows his own sweet WILL" The
economy thus secured appears In the OFF,
cial report OF the colony Of Victoria, which
says that American locomotives built for the
Government railway cost In Melbourne
60, 1872 each, whereas those built in Eogland
cost from E2,352 to E3.032 each, and those
built iu the colony itself cost from E2,939
to c3,571 each.
