OUR esteemed contemporary, the
Philadelphia Times, suggests that the
Republican ''ticket had better be
made Grant and Washburne. The
former can be credited to Pennsylva-
mia, which is in distressing need OF
q favorite son, and the latter to
Illinois, which seems to have so many
favorite sons that they are treading on
are another's toes" We think the
suggestion an an admirable one but
would like the handsome Colonel of
the Times to tell us why the Keystone
is without ''favorite son." 1t seems
odd when there are so many able and
popular editors there, that no flavor
ite son" should be found. Why would
it not do to let the mantle fall upon
the! eloquent Forney; the sturdy
Freeze or the gallant Mcclure? Had
it not been for Cameronism which is
the synonym for corruption the first
named would long ago have graced
the Senate, in which he would have
become a power, and shed lustie
upon his great Slate where Pennsyl-
vania Republicanism has only served
to drunken council.

CREswELL's Tutor IN DELAWARE.
The Cecil Democrat contains an item
from which we cut the following
"'Mr. Mills is an oldMaryland politi-
clan, who years ago taught Creswell
politics in Cecil county, and always ,as
Chairman in that county, led his par
ty to success. Mr.. Mills once elected
the Congressman from his district by
one Of the shrewdest devices | ever
heard of in politics. He is cool, saga.
cious and able manager Personally
he is gentleman esteemed and re-
spected by those who know him.
And 30 this old Maryland party
hack, is to defeat the free Democracy
Of Delaware. He is to get up some of
the ''shrewdest devices" in this State,
whatever that is. We have no doubt
of it and the old saw that the mills
grind slowly" is to be reversed SO far
as Mills, the political railroader is con-
cerned. Doub less he has an extern
sive acquaintance in Maryland, and it
may be there are thousands of idle ne
groes who might be furnished with
work in Delaware along the line of
that railroad by which SO many of the
race seek the northern cities. Well,
we do not fear his "shrewdest devi-
ces," confident that Mr.. Mills knows
that the GAZETTE is watchful of Cres-
wells tutor, and that "the eyes Of Del
dUGre are upon him."

The Right Sort Of Reconstruc-
ffn1l

According to the Charleston Is. C.l
Nescs and Courd,r, what are known a.
the Sea islands furnish an example of
the right sort OF Southern reo0ustruc-
ton. These islands, lying close to the
coast, were once famous for the guam
uty and quality vi their cotton product
and for the large and rich plantations
devoted To this business. The war viz
tually destroyed tber. The planters
were ruined and their former slaves ut
terly demorahzed and reduced to pau
perism and vagAbondage. THIS wretch
ed condition ofaffairs continued until
the carpet-ba Governments was over
thrown. Then whites and blacks had
courage 10 undertake the redemption Of
the old estates, and went to work intelh-
gently and indlstri0usly. The plauta-
lions, were divided and subdivided into
small farms; suhsoiling, drsiuing, heavy
manuring and all other modern i'm
pro, ements we're introduced and vigor-
ously utilized. and very soon light came
out OF th3 darkness, prosperity out OF
adversitv. Under the ante-war ystem
the average yield Of cotton was from 80
to 100 pounds per acre. Now, on farms
cultivated by whites, II Is from 200 TO
250 pounds. Nor is the gain confined to
the whites. The blacks are de,ng well
and promise TO do o great deal better.
On one Of the islands theyNlready own
1000 acres, and Id 1879 purchased 5O6
horses and mulet, 800 carts and 100 bug
gies. 1wo-thirds a the eutire crop was
made by them. One ex slave has money
to leni, being a papi:alfst to the extent
Of $50 ,000-his accumulated savings.
Land which few years sgo could hard
ly be sold at any price now sells readily
it from $40 to $7B per acre. In o.her
words the Sea islands are ION their
feet" again, stronger and richer than
ever.
Here is an example which the exodus
preachers may ptofitably discourse upon,
(which they will take good care To
say nothing about. Ii shows what can
be done by the united effort Of blanks
AMI whites, and that such effort is not
only possible, but comparatively easy.

The NEGRO VoTE.-Without the

8lu Oh the ntSrO NOLo INC nduiCni
could hardly elect man to office il
this State. We doubt if they coul,
elect single man to the City Coun
Gil in this city without the votes o
the negroes. Mr.. Rodney, of tn,
Seventh Ward, might possibly b.
elected without negro votes. Blu
he was not, and holds his seat to-day
it is maintained, through the vote
Of the negroes in his Ward. Nov
look at the lower counties. Thes'
counties are largely of one faith bu
they are just as largely averse tc
voting with negroes as are the peo-
pie of this city and county. Every
officer in those counties are elected
by large majorities of votes cast by
white men.
The Republican party claim that by
force of arms, and through the aid Of
laos passed by Congress before the
Union Das ''reconstructed," they ad-
ded 5000 negro votes to their party.
And yet they have been beaten
worse than ever by the white voters
Of Delaware.
Now, let us look at this. What
was the effect of these votesp Ger
tainly it was 10 rob the rightful own
ers of just so many franchises as that
vote disturbed. Fortunately the
white people had the good sense
to see and in time save themselves
from the dreadful effects that might
have followed, by combining and de-
feating the negropholists at the polls.
They saw that the aggregate Of 5000
votes was Of direful consequences
that it could by the aid Of fanatics,
as it did in the South, destroy the
value Of property. 1t was a great
wrong perpetrated upon weak little
Delaware by fanatical and crazy
headed politicians, who did not dare
to attempt such vile act until they
got arms in their hands and had dis
armed the people with armies paid
at the peoples expense. What
would be thought of Of a party of
men who would declare that all the
operatives on a railroad should go
into the stockholders meeting and
have an equal vote with them,
although they held no stock. Yet
this is not far from the same in effect
as forcing 5000 negro voters to the
polls in Delaware by force of armed
soldiers from other States.
On the basis of the Union, 1.-THE
Republican still maintains the South
is in rebellion, and of course not re-
constructed) the Republican party
would be beaten by the old white
voters in Delaware by majority
ranging between 5000 and 1000.
That would have been the state of
tine vote II as In the days OF Clay and
Clayton none but white men voted
in Delaware.
And as to the vote in the United
States, why If only those voted who
voted in the days of Webster, Cal
houn, Fillmore and Jackson, Mr.. Til
den would have been elected by a
majority of over a million white
votes. With the aid of 800 900
negro voters still the Democrats out
voted the Republicans by 1000,
and yet fraud and bayonets sue
ceeded through the aid of Grants
threats.

A Naples Letter.

NAPLES, February 2S.h, 1880.
The Swedish ship Vega, after accomplishing
the Northeast passage, came into Naples Feb
ruary 14th She started from Gothenburg in
July 1878, having thus occupied about twenty
months in her cruise.
The Vega was originally built for, and had
for some years been used as whaler, and
when the idea of circumnavigating the north
ern shores of Siberia was entertained she was
selected as suitable craft for the enterprise.
The project was warmly taken up by Mr..
Oscar Dickson, q gentleman of great wealth
very we'll known in Stockholm, and under his
auspices the whole was organized. His Maj
esty the King of Sweden contributed e24O0
sterling out of his private purse for the under
taking, and the ship was in great measure
fitted out at the expense of the Swedish Gov
ernment, her crew being carefully selected
from men who were well versed in Arctic ex-
ploration and thoroughly accustomed to the
rigours of climate and other perils that in such
an expedition they were certain to encounter.
Having been built as whaler nothing fur
ther was required to render the Vega service
able for her intended work than strengthen
ing of her hull by steel braces running fore
and aft six feet wide at the level of water
mark-she was furnished with a powerful
steel cutwater, and with a rudder which
could in case of necessity be readily
unshipped. She carried provisions for
three years and coal to enable her to
steam eighty thousand miles beside what was
necessary for purposes of heating She carried
steam pinnace which has served for purposes
of photography as we'll as for exploring the es-
tuaries of the rivers which flow from Siberia
into the Arctic ocean.
She is commanded by Capt. Palander of the
Swedish navy who commanded the Polhem in
the Arctic expedition of 1928 and who has
besides had considerable experience in naviga-
tion in high latitudes.
But it is round Professor. .Nordenschiold, the
scientific head of the expedition, that the prin-
cipal interest centres. He has been long well
known as a Sardnt versed in Arctic lore and
has largely contributed to the stock of our
knowledge of Nova Zembla, Greenland and
Spitzberg. BY nationality a Russian, he was
exiled from her territories on account of his
