GARFIELD ANDDUHSEY.
ICincinna;i Times Star.

Nlntln otlI
The letters written by Garfield to
Dorsey during the campaign of 1880
form an interesting chapter of political
history. They not only furnish addi-
tional evidence that Dorsey was the
trusted friend and adviser of the Re
publican candidate for President, but
throw light upon II phase of the cam
paign which it is anything but pleas
ant to contemplate. The intimate per-
sonal relations of Garfield and Dorsey
have all along been we'll understood.
1t was not known, however, that the
late President priced the services of his
friend quite so highly as these letters
indicate.
1t must be said in justice to Garfield
that there is nothing in the correspon-
dence which can be construed into Il
promise of favor or reward; nothing
which directly tends to strengthen the
story recently published that President
Garfield recognized his obligations to
Dorsey and promised to save him from
conviction in the Star Route cases.
The letters have their greatest inter
est, perhaps, in the illustration they
afford of political methods and man.
agement. Money, secrecy and sharp
practice these appear to be regarded
even by great Statement as the essential
elements of success in political strug-
giles.

NEGRO SUPERSTITION

In the police court yesterday was
case peculiarly illustrative of the SUI
perstition of the Southern negro.
There were about a half dozen negro
woman and men arraigned for attempt
ing to conjure one Minerva Dalsler.
one witness testified that some one
had been prowling around the house
scattering grave yard dust. Prominent
in the crowd of witnesses was the
"Doctor," an old nappy headed negro
who had brouGh Minerva. some
"Bcarsfoot" to dispel the charm. The
s'Doctor'' gave in his testimony in a
very concise and impressive manner.
lie said he sshad came up when the
furs arrived.' One old woman was
accused of entering the house of the
complainant at night, and passing her
hand over her caused her to have
plains. The Mayor discharged the
entire party, with the promise that
they should be severely punished if he
heard any more of this ridiculous
affair. Such superstition carries us
back to the days of witchcraft, and is
good evidence of the fact that If the
negro in the very midst of refinement
and intelligence can be guilty OF such
ignorance and barbarity, would, If left
to themselves, drift back into canni
halism, and the rude state Of savagery
