B@The maui that is to split the Solid
South will strike its first blow in Vir-
ginia this fall, aud the echo will be
heard throughout the whole country
The Old Dominion, for the first time in
many years, will be the scene Of fierce
political battle.
Sg-There is a pretty unanimous
protest against David Davis call fora
new party with anew name. The able
Democratic editors declare that the old
name is good enough for the party, and
they are right. Any other name would
be too good for it. agsv .j 6ns
16rlt was once remarked by Horace
Greeley that, while every Democrat was
not thief and murderer, it was an
uncontroverted fact that every thief
and murderer was q Democrat. Sena-
tor Brown seems to have unconscious
ly plagiarized this great truth. &C
S- As an unknown the Georgia
Senator (Brown) was great; as known
he Is unreliable and Insignificant. He
has shrunk in proportions, shriveled up
in the heat of his own volubility. SO
lone by one the roses fall'' under the
wind of too much CAB. Detroit Post and

~ The old Democratic party has
never done aught else but deceive the
South. To it the South owes its great
est wrongs. when the South throws
off its rule It will that day stand forth
with new powers, and enter upon new
career and prouder destiny. Chicago

DW-The Democratic shouts Of q
s.bargain' with Malone sound very
like their ..fraud' yells in 1876, and
spring from o similar cause. Tho
Democrats tried to buy the Presidency
in 1876, and failing. began to shout
fraud. They tried to buy Malone this
year, and failing they shout: He's a
bad man, corrupt man. The Repub-
licans have bought him!' They no
longer fool anybody. -... .-.,.., -.
B1-" Sentimental gush and political
claptrap" is what Mississippi Con-
pressman calls the famous oracular OBJ
seryation of General Hancock concern
ing s.full vote, q tree ballot and .
fair count" Yet the Congressman is
not Republican, but an undiluted
Democrat. This seems to destroy the
last of the issues presented to the De-
mocracy by General Hancock. One by
one they have all been discarded. The
party will have to start in fresh next
time with q new candidate and new
set of principles. Benjamin Franklin
Butler is the man for them. He can
supply all the principles they can ham
die and have big supply left.-M r.

B6rCongressman Manning agrees
with all other Southern statesmen that
the ..niggers' would get along all right
| if they would let politics alone. When
the census is taken these statesmen are
anxious to have oil the ..niggers'
counted, and when the Congressional
apportionment is made they are anxious
to have each '.nigger'' count as much
as white man. But there the count
lug must stop. The .'niggers," have
no right to say who shall represent
them in Congress, who shall govern
them at home, or who shall be Presi-
dent just as soon as they meddle
with any of these questions they get
into politics, and trouble begins.
