Religious bodies should he at least as
careful as secular organizations not 70
sound fllse alarms nor needlessly stir up
strife. In passing resolutions on pub ic
affairs they should feel bound to state facts
and not give loose rein to fancy. And es-
pecially a. time when words of ruth and
soberness are needed to allay groundless
apprehensions, the utterances of religious
conventions ought to be we | considered.
But the reverse of all this was true Of a
body that has been holding its sessions at
Syracuse, n. Y. A press reporter says =
The quadrennial session of the American
Wesleyan conference has passed resolu-
S. Supreme Court, in the civil rights cases
reopens all the questions which were sup
posed to have been se't'ed by the war
We do not suppose that there was an
intention to deceive. 1t is unlikely that
the men who framed and voted for that
resolution really meat to utter an untruth.
But if they had, with all their ingenuity,
striven to get as far as possible from truth
and to put as much of The false into their
declaration as the circumstances would
admit of, they would have said just what
they did say.
The decision opens no question that
was supposed TO have been settled by the
war" 1t could not, of course impair any
of the war amendments, or any act Of Con
gress in harmony with those amendments
The colored people have all the rights that
they had before the decision was handed
downfall the rights that are enjoyed 10y
the whites"
Emancipation, enfranchisement and e.
quality before the law are not in any way
assailed or menanced, and it is altogether
unbecomlng in any respectable organiza-
ton, religious or secular, to play on the
fears or passions of the ignorant 10y such
manifesto rs hat of the Wesleyans of Sy-
racuSe.
The civil rights act was utterly useless
to its intended beneticiaries while it stood
and its fall does not change the status of
the colored peop'e in any respect.-Post.

The Result in the State.

The result of the election in the State is
entirely satisfactory and fully up to the
expectations of al judicious observers of
the campaign. Maryland has not been al
lowed to rank 10y any means among the
doubtful States in next years contest, but
has been kept safely and securely within
McLane's majority in the State is not de
tiniteiy ascertained at this writing We'd
nesday) but the most careful estimates
place il at from 10000 o 10000. In Bal
timore city he receives 1923 majority a
gainst 1878 for Hamilton in 1879. This
falling off was to have been expected as a
consequence of the ill-advised fusion move
ment lately resorted to in that city. In
view of that movement the result in that
city is a most satisfactory one.
The Republicans are signally defeated
in their confident expectation of carrying
the State outside of Baltimore city. The
confidence which existed as to the election
of the Stpte ticket and the easy character
of the local contest in many of the coun-
ties prevented large Democratic MAORI
ty in the rural districts. There is no doubt
of a satisfactory working Democratic ma
iority in the General Assembly to cooper
ate with the Governor, and the State is
safely delivered from the great dangers to
have been apprehended from Republican
domination. Altogether the result in the
State is most satisfactory. the Democrats
having achieved their usual safe and deci
sive victory in spite of the local compll-
cations in Baltimore city

Gen. Bradley T. Johnson, in speaking
of the recent decision in the civil rights
cases, says:
The decision is pregnant with signif-
canoe, in showing the progress of the re-
action against the ultra Capitalization
tendencies of the last twenty years. That
reaction in public sentiment is rising with
accelerated force every year, and | expect
to see the constitution re-established on
old ,Jeffersonan lines Of the States rights,
and Mr.. Madison's principles again di-
recting the general policy of the govern
ment. If Capitalization goes on for TWEEN
ty-five years as it has done for the last
twenty. we will have an entirely different
government from that established in 1897,
in which believe public liberty will be
sacrificed to national grandeur. The Su
preme Court has swung to the extreme
limit toward Capitalization. 1t has for
some years been stationary, and, as it were,
hesitating The pendulum has now start
ed on its backward way. AS for the con-
dition of the negroes, they will be better
off protected by the good will of their
friends and neighbors, than dependent on
the federal government for their safety
and security"
