We agree with the Atlanta
Defiance that Virginia is the
State where the sentimen. of a
convention Of colored citizens
would do the most good. We are
for anything that shall kill that
hydra headed monster, Bourbon

sociation ought to meet at the
same time has been suggested,
and wisely SO. Col W A Pledger,
the president of the association,
will doubtless call it to meet in
Observation-Disclosures World.
Col Pledger was only > crea-
ture Of the constitution at ST.
Louis. He has no power to
change the place of meeting. If
federal office seekers wants the
benefit of the colored press let
them come to us. The Mansion

superhuous.

The National Enquirer pub

We agree with the 70. lowing
excellent suggestion of the De
troit Plaindealer.
The Colored Press Convention
is to meet in Detroit the second
week in July, and national
convention of COlored men is to
meet at the same time in Rich
mond, Va. Many that would
like to be at both conventions
will find it impossible. There
fore, the members of the press
should unite in asking President
Pledger to change the place of the
press convention to Richmond,
and thereby give them a chance
to kill two birds with one stone.
If those semi. occasionals are to
govern the press association we
will never have any, because we
can't go to all of their doors just
at the time they are running.
Though ] am surprised at the
PIaindealer being now the only
colored newspaper in Detroit
showing weakness and disability
to entertain the convention after
it has been designated to meet
there in July. The press associ-
alton is of more Importance to
the public than the Rich-
mond Convention. If they want

The Mulliran Letters

New York Sun: Let the Times attend

ought to sting its back. In leading ar.
ticle of column and half on Monday
Of last week, the Times announced that
it had made an examination of the
record which verified sin the most start.
ling manner" that Mr.. Blaine had sup.
pressed the letters contained in the
package which he took from MulliRan.
The Times startling discovery was this /:
-Four of the documents called by the
memorandum it failed to find in the
Congressional Record, and by what it
considered as "most singular coinci.
deuce" four letters NOT
mentioned in the memor.
andum we're read by Blaine.
"Can it be-" demanded the Times,
that the splendidly audacious states.
man substituted some harmless letters
from his own portfolio, or manufactured
for the occasion the four letters on
Mulligan's list, but not read?' The only
basis of the Times startling disco gery
was the phenomenal stupidity with
which its examination of the record was
conducted in the first place. Two of the
four documents which it had failed tc
find were. in fact, printed on the pages
which it had been examining. Halt O.
its case was swept away by the evidence
of its own ,unequaled heedlessness. A
third letter was there, too, answering the
description of the schedule in every re-
spect, except that Mulligan had indexec
it as of July 25th instead of July End
The fourth, letter of Fishers
to Blaine, was not produced by Blaine
at the time. Instead of covering the

tuition of a harmless epistle from hi.

occasion, he simply and straightfor
wardly said that he did not find. it il

the record was not prompted by an,
other motive than the habit of VERIFYING

Ben Butler president OF the United
States. He does not say this in words,
but doubtless means 1t.
His advice as to the conduct of the
compaign and the election, runs as FOL.
lows:
In framing your electoral ticket, make
fusion in all the states with the sup.
posed minority, and make it upon this
theory; not that you are going to vote
for the electors of any candidate opposed
to your interests, not that the friends of
the other candidates are gong to vote
for yours, but agree that you will run
the same electoral ticket, provided the
electors who compose it are as they ought
to be, reputable men who will be bound
by their honorable undertakings, which
is all there is that binds the electoral
college to vote in any direction; and
then have it agreed that the
electoral vote of the state shall be divi.
ded in the electoral college according to
the number of votes thrown for the other
candidate on the same ticket. The mum.
Der OF votes which each candidate gets
will be known with substantial accuracy
long before the official count is made.
Therefore you will have every incentive
To vote for your candidate because the
larger number of votes you cast the more
electoral votes will your candidate get,
and the less will the other have. And
those who are voting for the same elect.
ors with you will throw as many votes as
they can for their candidate in order
that he shall have as large share Of the
electoral vote Of the state as possible,
neither in fact voting for the candidate
OF the other. Thus you will show your
strength and hold the balance OF power
General Butler issues along with his
address to the nation two supplemental
addresses-one to the greenback labor
party and the anti-monopolists and the
other to the democracy of the state of
Massachusetts. TO the latter he says:
70 withdraw as much as possible all
personal considerations from interfering
Win my duties as your representative in
npnoldlng your cause and carrying for.
ward your principles, 1 did not permit
my name to come before the convention
IN candldature, although am instructed
that the fact is, and 1 glory in it, that I
was the unanimous choice of the demo.
cratic people of our state.
The convention for reasons, and unde,
circum stances that have hereinbefore
stated, rejected your principles, spurned
your platform, and instead of taking any
statesman of the democracy, nominated
as your candidate gentleman whom wo
years ago there were not forty voters in
your ranks knew lived on earth can
not be bound by the action of such a
convention, so regardless of the interests
of the people and OF democratic usages,
and l SO told that body.

1879 under the miscegenation statute OF
Texas and sentenced to five years in the
Penitentiary. In the eleventh district,
Judge Sabin. Of the United States court.

OF habeas corpus. When the case was
called for hearing the state announced
that the governor had granted full
pardon to Franchise, whereupon the
writ was dismissed and the order of
the court entered discharging Fran.
caise. Next day Franchise refused to
accept the governors pardon, alleging
that it did not restore him to citizenship,
and be preferred rather to rely on tho

the writ and discharge from custody by
the court as the best evidence of his lib.

victed provided only for the punishment

Republican Prospects


W ashington, Aug. 14-At the head.
quarters of the republican congressional
committee there is an air of business
this week and business Is getting brisk.
The demand for campaign literature
continues to increase and it is being sent
out in large quantities to supply the
demand. AS has been stated the work
OF this committee will be particularly
directed to the congressional districts.
The prospect of securing the next house
grows brighter if reliance can be placed
upon the reports daily received by this
committee. Letters received yesterday
and to-day from Indiana, Ohio, New
York, Iowa, North Carolina, and
Tennessee all predict republican
gains OF congressman. At the an.
preaching election in Maine full re.
publican delegation viii! unquestionably
be elected. In 1882. the state not having
been redistricted under the new appor.
tlonment, all were elected "at large"
Next month they will be chosen by dis.
tricts, but none of them are in doubt,
The effort Will be to make the majority
as large as possible. The battle is now
fairly on in the Pine Tree state All
eyes are watching its progress with the
keenest interest. At the democratic
headquarters it was said that not much
powder would be expended upon that
side in Maine. 1t would be like the re-.
publicans trying to fight for Texas. The
democrats would do what they could to
keep the republican majority from going
too high, but their heavy artillery would
be trained upon other states where there
will be better prospect for practical re-.
suits: They do not expect to get any
member OF congress there, and they will
not be disappointed in this respect.

The Awful Taste of Human Fles,,


New York, Aug. l5--One of the junior
officers of the Thetis. talking today on
board the ship of the charges against
the Greedy party, said: Here on this
very spot. one OF the survivors held us
through oil one night, telling, If words
can tell. of his first taste of human flesh.
He would give years IRON his life to for.
get it; but be said that the first taste,
the sensation of having between his
teeth the flesh OF one who had once been
his friend. was with him always. Waking
or sleeping, he seemed to fee. his lips
pressing the smooth, flabby meat that
must be choked down somehow if he
would live. And then the inhuman,
savage way of getting it! Each feeder
upon such food must cut
off his own shreds Of
flesh; no friend could be found to per.
form this horrible Office. Every man, If
he would eat. must of necessity be his
own butcher, and these canniballstic
orgies, these midnight feasts we're secret,
The little beaten path, worn smooth. be.
tween the graveyard end the wretches'
tent, told its tale. But every dweller
in that tent shut his eyes and refused to
see. Body after body was stripped Of
flesh, but none of those that trod that
little path dared speak of this. No man
asked question at the too common
sight Of starving wretch creeping up to
the only fire at midnight, carrying in his
hand strip of flesh. As he thrusts this
into the flames on the end of pointed
stick, no one of his companions
says word. aud when tearing
