To THE EDITOR OF THE SENTINEL
On the 18th ultimo I wrote you
letter giving my idea as to the treat
ment which intelligent and deserving
colored men will receive at the hands
of the Republican legislature. l was
sorry to see that you were so welded
to the idol of Republicanism; that in
commenting upon it, you sacrificed
much Of the sturdy independence for
which you are noted in the treatment
of other questions, and publicly an
nounced that you, and the rest of the
colored people who amount to any,
thing, would again be willing to stand
aside, or take a back seat as your
friends (?) of the Throckmorton and
Place order, should determine. You
swallow the platitudes of Mr.. Place
and gulp down the sophistry of Mr..
Throckmorton, pat yourself on the
stomach and say that you have had a
good meal.
Mr. Throckmorton says a good
many pleasant things. Are they true
He is such lover of the colored man
and SO earnestly DESTROYS of giving
him every political recognition
(when he is talking to colored men, y
what will he do toward it? What has
he ever done toward it? Remember
what | say, when Throckmorton and
Place come down here to urge the
claims of their Senatorial favorites, not
word will they say in favor of this
recognition of colored men they talk
to you about SO nicely not a colored
man will they urge for any position,
and you and your fellows will be put
aside without even the " crumbs" that
Throckmorton talks so disdainfully
about, but which he was perfectly
willing to take himself. What your
people should ask of Mr.. Throckmor-
ton is, what will he do? not, what will
he say If Mr.. Throckmorton means
what he says, let him speak out and
say what he will do. My word for it,
he will do n0thtng.

A Positive Danger.

General Beatty of Ohio was a brave
Union soldier during the war, and since
the fighting in the field closed he has
been brave defender of the principles
that have been credited with triumph
in that conflict. In a recent speech he
truthfully and plainly spoke of the is
sues of the present contest, and of the
results that are almost certain to fol-
low Democratic victory, as follows:
The south is stronger to-day, politi-
cally, than it was before the war. The
white people of that section have lost
the slaves indeed, bnt they have gained
by that loss 30 additional votes in the
National Congress, and the same num-
Der in the electoral college, and al
though they have disfranchised the
freedmen, they yet cling to their increas-
ed representation. With full control
of Congress and the Executive, what
would they dof First, cut up Texas
into five States, and thus gain eight
additional Senators and virtually Sc
cure the South for all time full control
of the United States Senate. Second,
they would reOrganize tile supreme
court, and then sweep away the later
amendments to the constitution. Third.
they would put the Confederate SOL
diers on the pension rolls, provide for
payment of the rebel debt and of
Southern claims. Fourth, they would
declare the emancipation proclamation
and the reconstruction acts of Congress
unconstitutional, revolutionary and
void, and demand payment for slaves.
But some Democratic friend thinks
this would be mpOssible-that if a
Democratic administration were to do
all this the Democratic party, so-called,
would be hurled from power at the
next election. How, my friends II
you trust the Democratic party now
you will trust it once too often. The
joint resolution by which Texas was
annexed, provides that Congress may
divide the territory embraced within
its present limits into five States-it

INTERESTING CAREER OF BRILLIANT
ROGUE.


ROGUE.
From the Washington Capital
In the Vermont state-prison, and un
der a sentence of IA years, is man of
criminal leisure, who was at one time
as well known in Washington circles of
the crooked order as in New York,
where he especially shOne us a wealthy
man of luxurious tastes. For years he
piled his business with marked success,
but was overtaken eventually, and en-
joys at present the imprisonment of a
felon and the anxiety of an applicant
for pardon. George Miles, confidence
man, fOrger, burglar and cOnspirator-
it was his connection with the famous
safe burglary that brought him into
District prominence-was fashioned by
nature for the line of work he improved
upon by art. He is Vermonter by
birth, and early in life distinguished
himself by obtaining insurances upon
his various properties, which he had an
untamed, fiery impulse to burn down.
Toward the close of the war his shrewd-
ness and dexterity as fOrger COM
mended him to the notice of Mark Shin
burn, the notorious bank rObber, who
now lives in swell style in Germany,
and the worthy couple started out III
partnership that panned out well until
their robbery of a savings bank in New
Hampshire. Both were arrested, but
Miles escaped conviction his elder as
sociate was sentenced to the peniten-
tiaIy in Concord, but was rescued by
the keen witted young man, who saw
ed hole through the prison walls and,
Disgusting Shinburn as woman, drove
off with him, landing safely in Canada.
About Ia years ago Miles originated
a small but select order of burglars,
and began a systematic series of rob
berries. Their largest work was to rob
a Maine bank of 100000. They were
pursued and all captured except Miles.
1t was about this time that he invented
and introduced the bold plan of captur-
ing cashiers, tying and Handwriting
them and procuring from them the
com mbinatiOns and means of entrance to
the safes this saved the trouble and
danger incident to the use and carrying
of burglars tools. On the proceeds of
his rebberies Miles lived in excellent
ease for few years, when he and his
associate hinburn, again made bold
dash upon the Ocean national bank of
New York, securing as the reward of
their villainy $500,000, and a few
months later they levied toll on a
Maryland bank for 100000.
In addition to his burglar business
this rising young man was partner in
several restaurants, notably the New
York dive, run by Sharkey, the mur-
derer. His wealth was largely useful
| in obtaining fre0uent immunity from
punishment; it was generally his for
tune to escape where his associates fell
