refused to have his name used for the
Vice Presidency because he knew that
Logan would accept it, and thought that

THE TICKETS CHANCES.
Congressman Dingley, of Maine, who
was one of Blaine's leading advocates at
Chicago, said 10 your correspondent this
morning that Blaine and his friends were
heartily glad that the New York Times,
Boston Herald, AdUertiSer and other al
legged Republican papers had bolted the
ticket, because they were only Repub-
lican in name aud would do the ticket
more injury than good if they supported
it, as they had been advocating
free trade and other heresies an
tagonistic to the Republican party.
He believed an independent ticket
would be forced into the field by the in
dependents in New York, New Jersey
and Massachusetts,, but predicted that
B aine and Logan would carry each of
these States beyond any doubt.
Scrgeant-at-Arms Seedom, who is in.
nuential in Democratic politics in Ohio,

In Ohio, unless Senator Payne or Gov.

Reduced to Poverty and Without
Friends, Old Abe Buford
Suicides.
The Dashing Oavalryman, the King Of
the Turf, and the Erratic Christian
Surreuders to Fate.
Queer Theological Doctrines Promulgated
by Mind Diseased-Tom Bu-
toIds Insanity.

lNDASAPoLls, June 9.-General Abe
Buford, the famous Kentucky horseman,
committed suicide to-day at Danville,
Ind, by shooting himself through the
heart. Cause, general dependency, &C.
casioned by loss of money and friends.
General Buford excited public attention
about two years ago by joining the Chris
tlan Church at Louisville, and publicly
pr0claiming his retirement from the turf,
One year later he again appeared on
the course, for which he was ar
raigned by the press, but argued the
possibility Of being a Christian and q
horseman at the same time. He was
once the owner and trainer of some of
the most noted horses in this country,
N WAR AND on THE TURF.
Abe Bu1ord was one Of the best cavalry
officers of the war. At its close he took,
as was natural to a Kentuckian, entirely
to the turf, on which he conferred honors
By his uprghtness.
His colossal form made him standing
mark on every track, and his skill in
breeding, selecting and racing made
him about the best known turtle in the
West. The news OF his conversion to the
church required strong confirmation be-
fore being credited and was doubted by
his co-relgionists from the moment he
gave his celebrated lecture to the church
goers at Louisville on "The horse as a
factor in religion" He said then that
not only had his earthly body been saved
from hostile bullets by heshiy horses, but
that he believed his soul would not attain
perfect bliss until drawn TO the ivory
gates by the shades of Enquirer Nc
Whittier. He 5000 after Joined the staff
of the Spirit Of the Turf in Chicago,
leaving it to start sporting paper in
Louisville, which, however, has not yet
seen the light.
TOM BUFoRD.
Some months ago his brother, Colonel
Tom Buford, escaped from the Anchor
age Ky Insane Asylum, where he had
been placed after his acquittal of the
murder Of Judge Elliott. When he es-
capped he was scarcely past the prime of
| life with robust constitution and power.
| full physique well preserved. He re.
turned broken in body and spirit, with
out money, hope or friends, and almos,

Negro Ingratitude.
From the ChatEa ,, Record.

Last Tuesdays election unmistaka-
bly, proved that the colored people do
not possess any gratitude 20 the Dem
ocratic party for the blessings and
benefits bestowed upon them by that
party. They voted almost as one man
in a solid body-against. the candi-
dates of the party that had done 50
much for them. Although the white
people have built asylums for the af-
tficted colored people, and year after
year nave taxed themselves to educate
the poor colored children, yet the col
ored voters array themselves at every
election in solid opposition to their
benefactors. This has been going on
so long that many white taxpayers
begin to think that a period is reached
when "forbearance ceases to be a Wifi
ue," and are seriously considering the
question of stop paying out their
money for people who do notapprecl
ate their kindness. We have the kind'
Hest feeling for the eolored people and
would like to see their condition i'm.
proved in every respect, but we fear
that their continued hostility to their
white neighbors will arouse 4 similar
feeling among the white people to
wards them, and is such condition
Of affairs is excited then the colored
people will surely bette sufferers! 1t
requires a considerable degree of pa
tience for white man to pay money
every year for the education of color
ed children, and then see the colored
men at every elections vote soIe
against his interests! ~
