The Republican Ticket.

The ticket nominated by the Republican
county convention last Tuesday is not noted
either for capacity or popularity. The
guiding hand in its formation has given no
evidence of sagacity That some nomina-
tons are good, cannot be denied; nor can
it be denied that others are VIGOROUSLY
weak. There was better material from
which a ticket could have been formed, but
it was not sought, and upon the whole it
cannot inspire hope of success. Said one
Republican of prominence, on the day of
the convention, "the Democratic candidates
for orphans court and county commits
sioners are virtually elected, for they are
remarkably strong; our ticket has been
too hastily made and no time has been al
lowed for consultation or to look for weak
points to attack on the other side" Another
Republican said, derisively, cit is very
fine ticket, and we will elect it, if we take
it to Frederick county, or some other place
where the Republicans have large major
ity." Another said, "with good candi-
date we might have elected the sheriff, but
our nominee is not strong" and similar
expressions were heard from various ones
concerning nearly every candidate. Sew
eral of those nominated have recently been
defeated under less favorable circumstances,
and defeat of the whole ticket will be
easily accomplishedif the Democratic party
but does its duty. The Republican party

Grants Scheme in Mexico,
On. a Conversation Overheard at the Amer
lean House, Dencer, Colorado,
AltquSt Sth, 1883.

''What is Jerome B. Chaffee out here for p
''To feel the pulse of Colorado in regard to
Grants scheme in Mexico" "And what is
Grants scheme in Mexico?" "Why, don't
you know; | see you are not posted. We
would have had Mexico long ago if Grant had
not been defeated at the Chicago convention.
'What does Grant want Mexico for?" ''The
railroad men want to control Mexico the same
as they are now controlling the United States
''But what about that treaty of Mexico with
Germany? won'twe have trouble?' '.Well,
suppose we do; it would settle for ever the
Southern question, make times good, and
Grant President again And then they ad-
journed.
Now, straws show which way the wind
blows. Grant having been thrown overheard
by the Republican party, it now appears that
he, or the New York bondhoIders, are coolly
and quietly figuring to gobblo up the entire
Douglass Democratic vote. Respectfully,

Ignoring the Colored Voter.

The colored voters received no consider
alton at the hands of the Republicans on
Tuesday. In selecting delegates to the
convention last Saturday, not one colored
man was chosen, nor was a colored man
mentioned for any place on the Republican
ticket last Tuesday, much less nominated.
The colored voters are the most certain
supporters of the Republican party. They
have voted the tickets put up by their
party for thirteen years without scratch.
Without them the Republican party would
make miserable showing, and could scarce
ly carry county anywhere in the country,
and certainly not state. Without them
the Republican party in Carroll would be
in minority of over eight hundred. The
colored vote is their main dependence, for
it has always been solid, and yet they give
them no recognition. Can Republicans
thus treat large clement of their party
and have the effrontery to again ask their
united aid? Does not their action say to
the colored man that he is only fit to vote,
not to hold office? If it does, they pay a
poor compliment to themselves as teachers;
If it does not, they show ingratitude and ex-
hibit inOrdinate greed and selfshness.

Dispatches from Batavia, on August %,
say The eruption of the volcano on the
island of Krakatoa continues. North Bantam,
in Java, is covered with ashes, mud and
stones. The crops are ruined, and roads and
bridges are damaged. The European quarter
of Anjier and the Chinese camp at Merak
have been swept away by the overflow of the
rivers The tidal wave also swamped the
lower quarter of Batavia. A dispatch from
Batavia, Java, August 90, says that the towns
of Anjer, Tjiringine and Tolokbelong have
been destroyed by the volcanic eruptions. 1t
also says that all the lighthouses in the Sunda
Straits have disappeared, and that where the
mountain of Kramatan formerly stood the sea
now flows. The aspect of the Sunda Straits
is much changed, and navigation is danger
ous The tidal wave completely destroyed
Aniier. Many persons there were killed.
The loss of life among both European and
natives at North Bantam was enormous.
Since noon yesterday everything has been
quiet. The sky is clear, and communica-
ton with Serang has been restored. The
temperature fell ten degrees on Monday, but
it is now at its normal height. The town is
covered with thin layer of ashes, which was
so hot when falling that it killed birds.
Telegraph linemsn report that while they
were at work repairing line near Anjier
early Monday morning they saw high column
of the sea approaching, with roaring noise.
They fled Immediately, without learning the
fate of the inhabitants. The quarries at No
rak have disappeared, and all the people of
the place persisted. The floating dock at the
island of 0nrust, near Batavia, is adrift. and
is badly damaged The latest accounts state
that $1,000 persons were killed.
