To the questions propounded to us by
the Wheeling Inteiigencey, We respond
that we do not admit that negroes arc the
proper persons to make laws for white
men. At the same time, we would be far
nom blaming the negroes for voting rs
they do-that il, for the party which they
suppose will make most concessions to
Them. The fault is in the men who thus
array them against the rest of the whites Of
fhe community.
Let us illustrate: II the Democrats Of
Virginia would promise to allow negroes
and whites TO intermarry, the negroes
would all. or almost all, support the Demo-
cratic party on that issue. But If in addi-
rlon 10 that induccment the Resdjusters
should offer to divide equally all the Offices
in the State with them, then of course
nhe negroes would act with the Read
busters. II these concessions 10 the ne
aro could he stopped at the point TO which
even the ReadiusterS Of Virginia have
carried them, they would be tOlerable.
The trouble il that one concession leads to
another, and this without limitation so far
az anybody knows. Where shall they be
stopped? How far will the next set OF
dissatisfied boilers 20, 10 secure the negro
vote? They may leave the Readjusters far
behind, these latter having indeed done
more in the way Of promises 1--WE suspect
Than in the way of performance. But we
have no room to discuss these questions
lust now. The Mteuigenoer can see the
point. II is not 80 much what is as what
may be that we fear.

Goloid Coins.

The tclusion that money may be made
nv the mere Cat Of powerful government
fakes protean shapes. II last appears IN
tho form Of the resolution OF Mr.. STEPHENS,
of Georgia, proposing to authorize the
limited States minis 10 coin what he entities
% goloid, and "stela" pieces. Goloid
axe gold coins remind one Of compen-
suttng peudulum-rods, which when they
bngthen In one portion contract In another,
and thus keep the pendulum Of the proper
length. We suppose Mr. STEPHENS Dor
rowed his idea from the clock-makers.
The new coins are TO consist of mixture
or amalgam Of gold and silver, and are i1-
tended. It II to be presumed, to contain
~uch quantity of the precious metals as
win make each piece worth ito face value
But what better will such coins be than
bullion? Is It expected that they will cir
salatc outside Of the United States II 80,
we fear that the expectation will never be
realized. Our fiity-ccnt coins now pass in
British America for only forty cents each.
The fiat OF our Government has maze them
pass at their nominal value in this country
because they are receivable for dues to that
Government, but it has not yet been able
70 make them pass for more than their bul-
hon value in other countries.
We doubt indeed whether goloid coins
win be rs valuable as would the pure bull
Hon. Silver or gold bullion will always
bring its full value according to its weight;
but before Mr.. STgPHESs's new coins could
10 made as valuable az those metals, it may
be that those coins would have to be sepa-
rated into silver and gold. II 80, il il a
clear case TINT "goloid" coin will not be
worth IA much as the same quantity Of the
precious metals in the form Of bullion.

fore Yesterday. It Is stated that he af-
tempted TO get on the train about midway
while In motion, and fell upon the track
between the cars. The body was cut IN
TWAIN NV the wheels OF the several cars that
passed over II, and death Of course was al
most immediate. -Indez-Appedl.
II appears now that the account OF the
shooting OF Leonidas Triplett by Arthur
Davis published yesterday does great in
Justice to the latter. 10 seems that while
Davis and the man were looking after the
turkeys, Colder Davis and brother OF
Triplett got into quarrel, which brought
Leonidas Triplett out OF the house, who
made for Arthur Davis. Davis warned
him IL he advanced upon him he would Kill
him. Tripett put his hand behind him as
IL in the act OF drawing a pistol from his
hip-pocket, when Davis drew his pistol and
shot Triplett dead, the ball entering the
centre OF his forehead. As soon ~ Davis
saw Triplett fall he went TO him and lifted
him up, exclaiming In agonizing tones,
"My God, have killed HIM and his blood
Is upon my hands. | did not intend that
this should happen"

The English Diplomatic Service.

A very interesting lecture on
Diplomacy as a Profession was de-
Iivered recently by Mr.. II. S. North
cote, NJ. p, son Of the ex.chancellor
of the exchequer. The English dip
lomatic body, he said, consisted Of
about 40 members, scattered over
some forty-odd different embassies
and legations, viz: six ambassadors
at Paris, Vienna, st. Petersburg, Ber-
lin, Rome and Constsntinople; as
many principal secretaries, Y minis
ters. 10 secretaries of legation, 60 or
20 junior secretaries and seven or
eight naval and military attaches.
The annual cost of the service is about
81, 000, 900. The charge has often
been made that the service is a close
preserve for the younger members Of
the a~ristocracy, but in reality only
men Of very considerable private
means can afford to enter on a diplO-
matte career. A junior secretary works
without pay for two years, then re-
ceives Gl50 $500 a year. After four
or five years additional service he be-
comes a second secretary, with 9300
($l50O)a year, and it is not likely that
he will reach the rank Of secretary of
legation before he has been twenty
years in the service, and receives a
salary Of e7OO ($35OO) a year. Prob
ably, after ten years further service
he will become a minister, with G3)00
or $4,000 ($l5,000 or 100000 a year
not too great a salary for a man who
has lived in exile for thirty years,
especially as he has to keep open
house for his countrymen. AT the
same time, it can easily be understood
that a diplomatic career offers an allur-
ing prospect for a younger son, with a
moderate private income, even if he
does not pass beyond the rank ofsecre-
tary of legation, since it gives him one
of the surest of occupation, where the
work is light and agreeable, and a most
enviable social position.
