The Sticking Point.
To the Editor Of the Dispatch

To the Editor of the Dispatch
Gratefully acknowledging the kindly
consideration that occasioned the publ
cation of my article in your issue Of
the 22d regardless of your dissension
from its reasoning, and notwithstand-
ing the cold bath you gave it by your
PREDATORY remarks, venture to ad-
dress you a few inquiries with the
view 10 eliciting your ideas on this
question of division Of our people
on economic questions. There is at
present much "generalizing" on the
subject-many predictions-but there
is an evident Sinking of the all
important question as to hop this end
is to be effected. To say a thing ought
to and will be done, and to say how it
is to be done, are very different things.
Noticing this fact, ventured to express
a few views, and while | firmly believe
can successfully defend them from all
attacks, yet the prime motive of that
article and Of this note is the desire to
call up this question for discussion
upon its merits.
A few days ago you (the Dispatch,
in quoting the Boston Herald to the
effect that the solidity of the South
could not be dissolved by a continuous
abuse of her people on the part Of the
North, expressed the view that when
such sentiments can be truly said to re-
feet the real feeling of the northern
masses there will no longer be any
excuse for the South to reman Solid"
Thus you evidently predicate tbs
division Of our people on economic
questions upon the ''real feeling of the
northern Masses" Now, Aor will that
obliterate that great evil, of which you
have so often expressed desire to be
rid-viz., the color-line in our politics
"lt rests entirely with the North as to
when the South will divide" is q com.
mon expression. But Why or hon
entirely with the North ~?
Let US agree upon the facts in this
matter and then march right up to the
sticking point" VIReINIAN.

Pnlparia and Servia.

A cable dispatch says Seryia and
Bulgaria have agreed to an armiStice {;
also that this agreement was reached
ON the mediation-a better word, we
reckon, would be menace of
Turkey, Austria, and Russia. If the
Powers have really determined to stop
the fighting in the Balkans they will
merit the lasting gratitude Of MILAN.
IL has been evident for some time that
he needed their help in letting 60.
However, it is to be regretted
that the Powers did not hold oil
long enough for ALEXANDER to give
him the complete drubbiug he so richly
deserves. His invasion of Bulgaria was
to all appearances inexcusable. ALEX
AMBER had some warrant for invading
Eastern Roumelia. The Eastern Rou-
melians wanted him as their ruler.
MILAN, on the contrary, seems to have
declared war against Bulgaria chiefly to
curry favor with Austria.

Canadian Troubles.

1t seems not improbable that the
spirit Of LOUIS RIEL will keep march.
ing on until it stirs up serious trouble
between the French and the English in
Canada. Feeling has reached a point
at which the Toronto Mail, Sir JOHN
McDONALD's organ, feels constrained
TO utter a warning. Noticing the revolt
of the French Conservatives, the Mail
says:
The English people are willing,
now as in the past, to recognize equal
rights for the French, but they will
never whilst they breathe consent to
the establishment of French imperium
in imperio, and we beg and entreat the
bleu and rouge leaders, as they value
the welfare OF the Dominion, to with
draw from so dangerous an experiment
before it is too late"
A civil war in Canada would be a
pretty bad business, but the French
leaders would better take the Mails
advice. There could be but one out
come of such a war.

At the Hendricks residence this

No Danger.

When we remarked the other day
that no danger to the country would
result if Mr.. CLEVELAND should die
before the Senate had elected Presi-
dent pro fem., we might have illustrated
what we meant to say if we had not
lost sight of the fact that in 1881 the
country was to all intents and purposes
without constitutional ruler from the
time Mr.. GARFIELD was shot until he
died. His Cabinet carried on the
Government. Will it be said that as
be was living he was q constitutional
ruler. Read the Constitution. Ac-
cording to that instrument, he was not
President q moment after the accession
OF his "inability TO exercise the
functions Of the Office. The Constitu-
ton says:
"In case Of the removal of the Pre-
sident from office, or Of his death, re-
sienation, or inability 10 discharge the
duties and the powers Of the SAID office,
the same shall devolve on the Vice-Pre-
sident," &c.
Now, Mr.. GARFIELD was for months
in a state Of inability to discharge the
duties and powers of the Office OF
President. Mr.. ARTHUR was entitled
to the office all that time, though Mr..
GARFIELD was living. For the latter
was totally unable to be President. His
Cabinet, however, constituted an I'M
constitutional Executive or President.
But it will he replied of course that
Mr.. GARFIELD's " inability" had not
been ascertained by law, and therefore
MIR. ARTHUR had no right to enter the
Office of President. Well, let us con-
cede the point. That would be the case
exactly if Mr.. CLEVELAND were to
die before the Senate had elected a
President pro tenn. His death would
not be ascertained by law, and his
Cabinet would carry on the Govern
ment.

,r-aan pndinaI Rrethren,

The Radical journalistic champions
Of the rights Of the man aud the brother
never fail TO give currency to any story
about the alleged oppression Of the
negro in the South, no matter how
questionable may be its source. Even
when an election Is not in immediate
prospect they continue to bemoan the
manner in which the blacks are treated
by the southern whites. One Of their
stand-bys upon which they fall back
whenever the crop Of other southern
outrages fails is the charge that the
negroes are kept upon starvation wages
The suggestion Of this cruelty Is
usually as effective in bringing
tears TO the eyes of the average
Republican negro-lover as is onion
Juice. But we have it upon the au-
thority of a noted French physician
that it is good to weep. We are there
fore moved to call the attention Of our
Republican contemporaries to para
graph which appeared in our Peters
burg letter ofFriday, and which should
strain their tear-ducts to their utmost
capacity. That paragraph stated that
a certain negro congregation in the city
had during the past twenty years
contributed nearly forty-one thousand
dollars to gospel purposes; that
during the past few years it had built
splendid brick editice and kept out of
debt, and that from this church five
Others had sprung, all self-supporting.
When we consider that the employer
class Of Petersburg is exclusively white,
these facts afford evidence Of keeping
the negroes on starvation wages that
should set the hydraulic rams in the
heads Of the Radical editors of the land
to work with an energy calculated to give
every one of them a hammering head
ache.

He Cannot Rally,

General MALONE, not being law
yer nor a popular orator, nor having
any of the characteristics wherewith
opponents are bewitched and adherents
gained, has probably run his race. 1t
is not at all likely that he will be able
to recover his standing as leader.
Great orators and able lawyers-men
whose vocations keep them in the pub
lie eye, and whose eloquence sways the
masses whenever it is brought into
play,--are the spoiled children of po-
litical life, and can consult their own
"sweet will" as to their party rela-
lions. But General MALONE has no.
thing Of this sort to stand him in good
stead in any effort which he might make
to become again the leader Of success
full party.
Perhaps this is generalizing on too
small capital-drawing differences not
warranted by the facts. At any rate,
what we have said Of General MAHoNE
seems TO be what many other persons
would say if they should say anything.
Even Mr.. BLAINE, who is still the fore
most man in the Republican party,
though he may never again lead that
party to either defeat or success in a
presidential election, is represented as
having consigned General MAHoNE to
future obscurity. A recent letter from
New York to the Washington Star
says
"If friends Of the late presidential
candidate Of the Republicans in New
York can be depended upon, neither he
nor themselves consider Mr.. Blaine re-
moved from the theatre Of politics"
Now hear one Of the reasons given
for this opinion--that is, that Mr.
BLAINE is still power in the Repub'
lican party. We quote;
"MT. Blaine's friends urge that he
always opposed Mahone's leadership in
Republican politics in Virginia, and dis
claim responsibility for the late Repub
lican disaster there, rs they do as u
New York. So they propose to educate
Republican sentiment to Blaine's lead

Virginia. 1t will be recollected that
Virginia in 1884 the Mahonsites avowe
that they were for ARTHUR bscaus
ARTHUR was for them. Mr.. BLAIN
has not forgotten that fact. The Star
correspondent continues rs follows:
