The Bernhardt as II Social Problem.
Washington Post.

Sara Bernhardt who arrived in this coun-
try Wednesday, will in all probability repeat
in the metropolis of the United States the
splendid triumphs which she won in the
British metropolis. New York will not be
behind London in doing honor to great
artistic. The best society of the city will
crowd the house during her season at
Booths She Will be the great sensation
of the year, not only in New York, but in
all the cities which she visits. For months
people will go wild over her. In London
Mile Bernhardt was invited to the homes of
society leaders, and noble ladies wed with
each other in paying her honOrs We sup
pose the same thing will happen in this
country. Good people will ignore the fact
that although she is the mother of two fine
children, she has never been a wife.
1t is not worth while to condemn the fash
iOnable womenwho lionize Mile. Bernhardt
She has won brilliant reputation on the
stage by the display of phenomenal ability
and she has shown good deal of talent in
other directions. She is an artist in rather
broad sense of the word. But isn't it worthy
of more than passing comment that thou
sands of ladies who have wOrshiped and will
worship at her shrine, would turn in
naughty scorn and cold disdain from their
dearest friend, if that dearest friend being
unmarried, should be called mother?

bank cashier coming down in the morning
would find no evidence of the fraud prac-

left in the drawer. He once attempted to
enlist the United States Treasury authori-
ties in a scheme for his release by offering to
betray the secrets of the chemical compo-
sitions used for extracting the numbers
from bonds and bank checks, but the propo-
sition was declined. He is said to have In
structed some of the principal convicts in
the Eastern Penitenti6ry in the use of the
Morse telegraphic alphabet, and by this
means they were enabled TO carry on cor
respondence at night with each other for
long time before the officials discovered the
purpose of the tapping noise upon the steam
pipes, which were used as telegraph tine.

ton" to another Canter has about two

the young lady declined to repeat the last.

He Considered How Dependent She Was.
fHome JonruaI


In explanation of advocacy of woman's
rights by Alexander Dumas in his latest
book the following reason is given: He is
the father of two daughters. 1t appears
that the eldest was married some months
ago, and happily. But on her wedding day
the fathers heart WAS stirred TO its pro-
foundest depths as the state of legal infer
iority to which she descended was forced
home upon him by the sentences from the
code read by the Mayor. Tears started to
his eyes, although he is not weeping man,
when he considered how dependent she was
made by the law for her happiness upon
her husband, and how debarred she was
from obtaining redress for possible, though
improbable conjugal wrongs. Law, he ar
CUES, must first establish certain rights as
the woman's; then as she gradually comes
to assert them, men would treat them with
a respect that can not now be compelled.
"Men," argues M Dumas, would shrink
from gallant adventures in which they now
glory. As consequence infanticide would
be nipped in the bud; the criminal popula-
ton would be notably diminished and pu bic
morality increased" Dumas is not q
pnblicist nor philosopher-not even, per-
haps, man of practical common sense. But
he and his works form one ofthe most potent
social influences in France, and his work in
the right direetion-sgsinst the one great

Ex-Governor Smythe, of New HAMPSHIRE
says: 81 am for Grant because think he is the
only man who can be seated We are going to
elect our nominee, whoever he may be, but
the Democrats will count him out unless they
are afraid of him. Grant is the only man in
the United States they are afraid of. They
know that he could call half million of men
around him by raising his little finger. If
we don't elect Grant not one of us will live to
see another Republican President in the
White House."
There is little doubt in our mind that could
the nomination of the Chicago Convention be
made by the free and manipulated vote of
the Republican party General Grant would be
selected by large majority. We believe that
he has more and warmer friends in the party,
and also among the people generally, than any
other man in the country. The iron.willed

tourist of the world, has a wonderful hold

WHAT THEY PROPOSE TO DO.

The Democrats of South Carolina have
declared their intentions on the colored.
vote question with considerable emphasis.
There is no misunderstanding it. They
have concluded to do no more killing of
negroes at present but to change their
policy so as to "kill " the negro vote, and
suffer the negro to live. The Charleston
Netos and Courier makes proclamation of
the present purpose of that party in its
issue of the 4th instant under the following
significant caption THE Negro Vote in
South Carolina-l<ill or Cure" In the
outset the Neics and Courier graciously adj
mits that Z" the colOred people are still the
majority, and they can elect their candi-
" dates in 1880 as they elected them in
" 1868 TO 1874; !" but it continues n is the
settled purpose in South Carolina that The
" Intelligent and responsible citizens shat
"rule, whethor they are nOuliaqHy the majority
"or not" The italics are those of the Nc,cs
1t then proceeds in its own way to solve
the problem of killing off this con-
coded majority. 1t admits that
the colored voters cannot be con-
verted to the Democracy. Some other
methods must therefore be adopted to sup
press the colored vote by law, ms it has be-
come a little unpleasant TO longer do it in
violation of law, rs it creates much talk
throughout the North, and "the moral
sense of the South revolts against it."
Stick pin there. 1t proceeds to develop
its plan of suppression" by claiming that
1t "can be done in accordance with law, and
in such way as to command the acquies-
cence and encouragement of Democrats,
"of honest, upright, God-fearing men in
"every part of the I'm ion" 1t proposes to
impose an educational test as n condition
to an exercise of suffrage. This is not feas-
the passage of an immediate law requiring
every voter to register his name in his own
handwriting before he can exercise the
suffrage. A bill has been already framed
bearing this provision, which will be pressed
upon the extra session which commences
| tomorrow. This measure substantially
DISTINGUISHES large majority of the colored
voters, and it woul d be far more honorable
to deal the blow directly from the shoulder,
and prohibit this vote squarely, than to
erect an unjust subterfuge, under which 10
perpetatc gypss wrong by indirection
But it is "the settled purpose" of the Dem
ocrats, and will be done. Such law may
contribute largely to the exodus.

the measure. To use n common phrase the
people have kicked over their own dish in
this matter, unless Democratic Congress
shall have discovered the flct that Demo-
cratic methods and agencies are becoming
so predominant in this city that its political
power under suffrage may be easily secured
to that side. Such a consideration may lead
to the Acknowledgement of this District, for
tho argument which has been furnished in
this political muss is strongly tincturcd
with Democratic methods and practices,
and may win suffrage This is our only re-
naming hope now for it in the District of
Columbia until there are some funerals and
considerable emigration.
