Oliver johnson denies the state
ment of Hamilton Wilcox in his anti
slavery history that the American
anti-slavery society grew from the
New York city association. The ar
engagements for holding the national
convention were made before the city
society was organized. The New
England society was the oldest of the
organizations based on the platform
of immediate emancipation.
Revenue Agent Thomas Powers,
who has been investigating the alleged
seizures of ''sham" stills in South
Carolina, reports that the charge of
fraudulent practices, as far as it relates
to officers of the acknowledgements SER
vice, is entirely without foundtiOn. He
reports, however, three cases in which
he SAYS there is evidence that there
was an attempt at fraud on the part
of the United States deputy marshals.
If the latest report concerning the
steamer Riverdale explosion at New
York proves true, somebody will have
the charge OF perjury added to that of
murderous carele6sness. An express
man named Hyatt says he overheard
a fireman tell the engineer before the
boat left the pier on the day of the
explosion, that steam was leaking
from the boiler where it was patched,
and that the iron was so hot that he
could not stay below. The engineer
replied that that was nothing new.
The Riverdale catastrophe is in one
way and another unearthing a good
deal of rOttenness.
The New Jersey Democrats are
quoted as admitting that the nomina-
ton of Judge Dixon means had
work tor them. Somehow there are
in these autumn days a good many
little things calculated to cheer the Re
publican heart; the tidal wave came
year ago.
A statue of Gen. Robert +. Lee
was successfully cast in bronze IN
New York last week. The statue il
16 feet high and weighs 1000 pounds.
Gen. Latham, of Georgia, member
of Gen. Lees staff, witnessed the
casting.
The revolving tragedy in Fulton
street, Brooklyn, last week Tuesday,
is the second case in that city within
six months, wherein a minister, by
accident or otherwise, has taken the
life of his wife. Rev. James KemIo,
late pastor Of the reformed church in
MountvilIe, near Newark, n. j., while
on a visit to his parents in Brooklyn,
stabbed his wife after a terrible strug-
gle, and then cut his own throat and
flung himself out of a fourth story
window. His family say that his
mind has been unsettled from an at
tack of malaria. The Newark peo-
le clam, however, that Mr.. KemIo
lost his place because of alleged
abuse of his wife, and that his resi-
dence was known to but few people.
1t is not known why he did not live
near his church and congregation.
His sister, Mrs Louise KemIo Clarke,
is an operate singer. The fact that
the murderer and suicide is dead
should not lessen the thoroughness
of the investigation, but the theory of
insanity is so convenient a covering
to spread over a tragedy of this sort
that little can be hoped by way of
such investigation Ofthe affair as the
public interests demand.

How WGtch Cases Gre Made.

A plate of SOLID GOLD Il 2-1O karats
fine is soldered on each side Of a plate of
hard nickel composition metal, and the
three are then passed between polished
steel rollers. From this plate the various
parts ofthe cases-bacls, centers, bezels, etc.
are cut and shaped by dies and formers.
The gold is thick enough to admit Of all
kinds of chasing, engraving, and engine
turning. The composition metal gives it
needed strength, stiffness and soIidity, while
the tgritten guarantee Of the manufacturers
sOarranting each case to wear tlVenty years
proves that it contains all the gold that
can possibly be needed. This guarantee
is given from actual results, as many of
these cases have been worn perfectly smooth
by years of use without wearing through

Fred Douglass says he regards the
mission OF the cOlOred convention chiefly
moral, and, as far as its utterances are
concerned, a means towards securing A
better understanding between the col
Ored people and their fellow citizens gen
orally. He thinks the convention will be
thoroughly Representatives. Its objects,
he says, are to take into consideration
the general condition Of the colored peo-
pie, especially the condition of labor in
the south and the compensation it re-
ceives, the educational interests of the
colOred race, their civil rights and the
security of their political rights which
are now considered stricken down. He
IS reported as saying that the convention
has 10 direct political object, as far AS
political parties are concerned. 1t is not
impossible. however. that political par
ties come up for consideration. Ifthere
IS an effort to bring party politics into
the convention it will mcetwith resistance.
1t may be cOntended that no full and fair
discussion of the condition of the col
Ored people can be had. without discuss
ing their relations to existing and posi-
Die political parties, and this view may
prevail. lie thinks the convention will
nave something to say about the rein-
Dursement Of the dcpOsitOrs Of the
Freedmen's savings bank, and adds that
It would not be strange either if they
should ask for larger recognition in the
matter of Office holding. Perhaps the
greatest demand they will make upon
parties will be for absolute protection in
the exercise Of the constitutional RIGHT TO
vote. They may consider that they are
essentially without the protection of GOV
eminent and left only to defend them
selves by anarchial means,
