= Cleveland's administration will dis
abuse the colored people of many preju'
dices and delusions which their black
and white bosses have distempered them
with. They will be safer aud happier
under an honest Democratic demonstra-
tion.
We learn that the negroes in the
Mount Gallagher section of the county
have been powerfully stirred up and
frightened by some designing persons,
who have persuaded them that since
Cleveland is elected it is the purpose of
the white people of this State to enact
laws re establishing the whipping post,
and that they intend to whip the negroes
on all occasions, whether found guilty or
not. Whether or not the negroes believe
this coucocted story, it is used as a pre-.
text, and they are getting ready in large
numbers to emigrate to Arkansas. The
stampede extends through q section
extending from Mount Gallagher to the
Fork, about thirteen miles--Laurens
Merchant and Farmer.
- It has been demonstrated time and
again that the parlor stove is not safe
place in which to deposit bank notes.
Still people will use it for that purpose
in spite of frequent losses. The latest
victim of this kind of folly is Brooklyn
painter, who sold out his business short
time since for 5000, which he gave to his
wife for temporary safe.keeping while
nronarations vera made for a European
trip. She concluded DO burg lar would
ever think of looking in the parlor stove
for the money and carefully concealed it
therein, not telling any member of her
family what she had done. A few days
afterward the husband had occasion to
light his pipe and dropped the half
burned match in the stove. When the
wife looked for her money she found only
some burned fragments of paper.

= English Cook, white man, bought

value whatever, being only used by the
students of their institution as imitation

and who has been suffering ever since,
nearly twenty-five years, from the effects
of his wound, is now in Atlanta under
going the amputation of his leg.
- By the election OF Cleveland the
rights of the negro will not be interfered
with. The negro has proved very clearly
that he is not necessary at present to
either party politically. Let him now
learn that he can be of immense value
to the country by doing we'll the work to
which he is appointed. Let him bend
his energies to six days labor in every
week, and to do his work in a mastery
style. Let him teach his children to
stay at home and lead honest and upright
lives. So soon as the colored people
become respectable they are going to be
respected. Carolina Spartan.
= James S. Blaine, the cousin of his
cousin, is quoted as saying in Pittsburg:
personally I like Jim, but politically l
think he is a shade trickier than like.
For twenty years he has been sustained
by the hope of being President. 1t was
his only ambition. He lived, moved and
had his being with the simple hope of
some day being President. Now his
hopes are blasted. His monumental
ambition will crumble and in the great
wreck his life will be cruehed out"
- The Republican papers are getting
rather hoarse and tired abusing the re-
suit and trying to depress the country
with gloomy forebodings. Several of
them have turned over new leaf, and
begin to betray expectations that the
country will live through it. Even the
New York Tribune admits that there is
"no present danger" of change in the
tariff. Two weeks ago it was claiming
that mills would stop the day after elec-
tion and never resume, if Blaine was
not elected.

This Settles 1t.

BosToN, November 15.--A special to
the Herald from Augusta, says: Mr.
Blaine regards the official count in New
York as practically settling the Presi-
Dental question. Blaine, it is stated on
the best authority, received this afternoon
"a telegram from New York announcing
the completion of the Official canvass in
that city and informing him that the
plurality for Cleveland in that State
would be 1,l37. The same authority
says Blaine accepts the result very cheer
fully, and has no regrets growing cut OF
his connection with the campaign. He
feels that he made good fight, and be
gracefully bows to the verdict of the
American people. BE believes the Re
publican party will prove true to its
grand past, and will increase in strength
with the coming years. He expects that
in 1883 it will again be called back into
power. Blaine leaves for Washington
the middle of next week, where bis
family will spend the winter. He has
leased the Sargent House." in Farragut
Square, and will shortly resume his work
on the second volume of Twenty Years
in Congress-" The volume will be ready
by next June for publication.
NEW YORK, November 15-l a. NJ
The Tribune gives Blaine plurality of
57.734 outside of New York and Kings
Counties, with Erie and Greene Counties
complete, but not officially declared. In
Kings County they give Cleveland 1915
plurality, and in New York County
AZ, ,064-making his plurality in the State
IO76.
WASHINGTON, November 15.-The
Mat;onal Republican prints the following
in its New York money article: "Elkins
telegraphed his friends last night that he
conceded New York State to Cleveland
by about 1 200 plurality"
