The stir is increasing in Richmond over
the social rights of the negro The New
York Knights of Labor succeeded in getting
their negro brother seat in the orchestra Of
the Academy of Music, but the owners of
the building promptly warned the
lessee that the presence of colored man in
the orchestra was violation of the contract,
which especially STIMULATES that only eau
casian citizens shall go into that portion Of
the building. White society is greatly
shocked, and does not take kindly to the les

PRESIDENTIAL SYMPATHY,

President Cleveland has heard about the
Charleston earthquake of August 2Sth, and
has rushed off a letter to the Confederate
Home of that city, containing $1,000. $3.50 of

idential sympathy comes high but the con-
federates get it all the same.

Mr. John F. Andrew in his letter accept
ing the Democratic nomination for governor,
says the Democratic party has given the
country an able and fearless administration,
and has shown a progressive spirit ready to-
deal with the issues of the day." Further on
it appears that the questions of the day are
civil service reform, tariff reduction and the
stoppage of the coinage of short weight sill
yer dollars Which one of these questions
has the Democratic party shown readiness
to deal with? They have done nothing for
civil service reform. On the contrary Mr..
Samuel j. Randall, one of the most distin-
guished Democratic leaders in the country,
undertook to cripple it by denying suffi-
Gent appropriations, and Senator Vance de-
nounced it as humbug. They have done
nothing for tariff reform. A House, Demo-
cratic by forty majority, refused to consider
the subject even. They have done nothing
to improve our coinage. The law is I'M
changed, and short weight dollars at the rate
of 100000 month are still pouring out of
the minis. Not single question of impor-
lance has been solved or settled by the Dem
ocrats since they have been in power and
very few indeed have been considered even.
The compliment of Democratic nomination
seems to have affected Mr.. Andrews. mann

That the words of Herr Tisza, the Hunga-
rian prime minister, had avery bracing effect
on the Bulgarians is shown by the fact that
they refused to comply with all the Russian
demands that conflicted with the Bulgarian
constitution, and treated Gen. Kaulbars rath-
er gingerly when he undertook to harangue
them and point out the risk of resisting
the will of the Gar. Undoubtedly without
the promise of support that Tisza's address
contained the demands of Russia would have
been acceded to. But Russia appears to
have foreseen the possibility of a refusal, and
to have taken measures to undermine Bull
garia's power of resistance. The action of
the Shumla garrison in sending a telegram
to the Bulgarian minister of war, in which
the release of the conspirators against Prince
Alexander is advised. and favorable consider
alton of the other demands of the Russian
circular urged, is undoubtedly the result of
Russian bribery and intrigue. The garrison
at Plevna, Rustchuk, Widdin and Slivno are
of the same mind as the Shumla garrison,
showing that the corruption Of the Bulgarian
army has been general

The movement of the New York laboring
men in favor of Henry George for mayor is
likely to be met by counter movement by
New York capitalists. Such a movement
has already begun in the New York stock ex-
change, and two-thirds of its members rep
resenting nearly one billion of dollars, have
pledged themselves to vote for j. Edward
Simmons, who was president of the exchange
year ago. He is Democrat, but the move
ment is non-political. The broker who
started the movement says Mr.. Simmons
will be the candidate of capital against labor,
and that the business men of New York will
not allow socialism to rule the city Such a
contest as this movement presages, in which
capital shall be arrayed on one side and la
Dor on the other, is pretty sure to be de-
trimental to the interests of both. The
inevitable effect of it will be to widen the
breach between classes that are mutually de-
pendant, and strengthen the ill feeling that
already exists between them.

An inhabitant of East Boston writes to
one of the city dailies asking if some method
cannot be devised for protecting the Chinese
residents of Boston. The writer himself
says that he was protected for over twenty
years in Foochow by the laws of the Chinese
Empire; but that Cinnamon in Boston ''are
insulted and annoyed beyond endurance, and
if they turn upon their assailants are arrest
ed and held to bail, while their assailauts go
scot free" When Boston treats Chiuamen
so unjustly it can hardly be expected that
American missionaries will always be free
from insult in China
