modern brethren do more malicious
back-biting now than was tolerated
in those days. When men resort
to lying on and villifying US, we are
encouraged, for we know we are
driving old Satan into hard quarters,
where he has neither arms or ammu-
milton to fight with. We know we
are putting our words just where
they are felt.
Our good friend will please tell the
gentleman this paper is not for sale.
That the good people Of this city
want a reliable paper published by a
man who is not purchasable. No,
siri We are not for sale. Men who
negotiate and make purchases of
stolen goods, are held by law guilty
of crime as well as the rogue. Hence
there is no escape for this leader, as
we have two reliable witnesses, and
in the proper time will turn on the
lights.

NOT FOR SALE.

A certain leader among the inde-
pendents in this city approached a
close personal friend Of ours a few
days ago and offered him 500 to
stop our opposition to the independ-
ent ticket. That same leader told
another creditor of his that he meant
to make money enough in this cam
paign to pay his bill, &c. That
same leader is very busy in catching
hold of and circulating and manu-
featuring all sorts Of every little
thing, false or true, that he thinks
will in any way injure us-person-
ally. socially, or otherwise.
We are glad to inform this gentle
man that the MESSENGER is not for
sale. Had we been for sale we would
have tried long since to get on the
wrong side, and as4le, would have
paid no attention to the chidings of
conscience-if he has any. We
would rather be right than chairman
or leader. We have no policy but
the principles of the republican
party. After the defeat Of this
mongrel whiskey democratic con-
Germ, we propose to tell our people
the reason there is no harmony
among us, and who our false leaders
are. We think we have the clinch-
ing points. No, sir; we are not for
sale. We propose to publish an
honest newspaper for the good peo-
pie OF this city and section many
years to come, and cannot afford to
betray our trust by selling our peo-
pie for few dollars. Judas hanged
himself after he sold Christ, and how
ought poor fellow Of this day feel
after he has sold his brethren to the
democratic party for $500 or $500?
He ought to feel worse than Joseph's
brethren felt after he made himself

An Elephants Memory.

An amusing circumstance happened at
Hythe yesterday, when an elephant be
longing to circus freely helped himself
60 an early breakfast. 1t appears that
between and o'clock in the morning
the animal managed to affect his cape
from his companions, and paid visit to
Q house, with which his memory had
pleasant association-a little shop at the
corner of Market street. On arriving at
the place the elephant found that it was
closed. but, nothing daunted, he coolly
lifted the door off its hinges and helped
himself literally to the contents of the
shop, potatoes, apples and sweets When
he had either satisfied his appetite or had
exhausted the supply of good things. he
retraced his steps, and on the return jour
ney he was met by his keepers, who had in
the meantime become aware of his alb
sence. The animal in question visited
Hythe about eleven or twelve years ago,
and when passing this house was treated
by its then tenants to good meal OF
potatoes. This seemed to have left so
good an impression on the animals mind
that he was led to pay another visit to so
pleasant spot with tho result recorded
above. About the same time the next
morning he again got away, and was
making for the same place, but was dis
covered by his keepers before he had
gone far on his expedition. London Tsle-

WHO Owned the Egg.

the woman who drove her out picked up
and utilized. A suit was brought in

laid on the premises of the defendant f

from prominent republicans in this
and other counties, that our views
are correct, and that this paper re-
fleets the Views and political senti-
ments of very large majority ofthe
republican party, We are for any
and all measures which are for the
benefit Of the colored race, and we
believe the republican principles are
for equal rights under the law and
at the ballot box; but independents
are fraud upon the party. There
can be no such thing as an independ-
ent party. There are but two great
parties before the people-the repub-
lican party and the democratic party.
All others are mere side-shows.

WHAT WILL THEY DO ABOUT IT 2

Now that the third candidate is
fully in the field for Congress, what
will Col. Chas. R. and his friends do
about it? Will Col. Chas. R. stay in
the race or will he come down? The
announcement, in the shape of an
address, is circulated throughout the
District. The name Of the candidate
is William E. Mayo, of Wilmington.
He is mechanic, and Knight OF
Labor. He claims the suffrage OF
the Order throughout the District;
and, as true and loyal men, we sup
pose they will stick to man of their
own order and choice.
The Knights Of Labor is a good
order, and is destined to be power
full factor in the politics of this coun-
try. 1t is organized to aid and pro-
tect the laboring masses. The
greatest oppressor OF the laborer is
bad laws in the control of capital.
The way to remedy the evil is in the
legislative halls. 1t cannot be done
in the lobby, either. Laborers and
true friends Of laborers must be
elected to our State and National
Legislatures.
1t is not for us to say who is the
proper candidate for the Knights to
support in this emergency. They
have before them to choose from-a
Democrat, an Independent, and a
Knight Of Labor.

THE COUNTY TICKET AGAIN.

We learn that Mr.. Eli Hinson de-
clared himself candidate for the
Senate at public meeting one night
last week, and is now full in the field.
Mr.. Hinson is republican in poll
tics, has uniformly voted with and
given his most cordial support to re-
publican nominees, and has never
been ashamed of his principles and
his party, and will act with the re-
publican party in the Legislature,
and vote with them on all measures
for the good Of the party. We can
trust him, but what will the other
candidates do, if they should be
elected? Will they act with the
democrats or republicans on party
questions, or will they squat?
What will Mr.. Deal, DIR. Bruner,
and DR.. Sloan dor Are they going
to vote for Mr.. Hinson for the Sen
ate, or will they vote for Capt. Alex
ander? The colored republicans ex-
pect you to answer this question.
You can do it either before the peo-
pie in your public discussions or
through the columns of this paper.
You shall have fair showing.
The further question naturally
suggests itself: Will you support for
Speaker of the House a Democrat
or Republican? The selection of
presiding officer of that body is a
very important matter. He appoints
the important committees, and more
or less formulates the business Of that
branch OF the Legislature. Will you
identity yourself with the democratic
or the republican party9 Now, gen.
tlemen, answer that question square;
let there be no lodging. We feel
almost certain what wifi be Mr.. Hin
sons course. He is a republican,
and will stand by the party, and de-
serves the support Of the party; but
as for the rest, we will see what we
will see.
There is another question worthy
of consideration. What will Mr..
Cooper, the candidate for sheriff, do
in making his appointments? Will
he give any to republicans? The
mere fact that he does his shaving in
colored barber shop patronized
exclusively by colored men, while it
goes a little that way, is by no means
sufficient proof of his political senti-
ments as to entitle him to the colored
vote. When these questions are sat
isfactorily answered, we may have
some others Of equal weight to pro-
pound. We shall make tit a point
to hear a joint discussion, when we
shall have more to say.
T. K. Salmonds is also a candi-
date for the office of sheriff. He is
true republican, has voted with
us, and always acted with US, and
is not ashamed of his colors and his
party principles. He is the only re-
publican candidate for that Office,
and should receive the support Of the
party. But Mr.. Salmonds does not
suit the McNinch Gordon Sims
Schenck party; and they have issued
their orders that Salmonds shall be
set aside and Cooper brought to the
front to receive the republican vote.

IN MEMORIAM.
BY S. F. wENTz.

God loosed the silver cord
Which bound class-mate dear,
And took from our number one
That sparkleG bright and clear
The angels bore his soul away
And laid it at the feet
OF Him who sits enthroned
Upon the mercy-seat.
A. A. Dryer. our mate, has faded away
For precious life has fed,
Earth unto earth returned
She ever claims her dead
His body is mouldering fast,
His soul in heavenward flight
Regained the further land of pure delight,
A land where all is light.
The sun of life has ere eventide approached
But rose again in realms bright,
Where night has never been,
A city where God is the light.
The light of heaven outshone
The DINNER light Of earth,
And shed halo around his soul
His soul of heavenly birth.
God bound the golden cord
That linked the soul divine,
With that immortal life
Unmarked by age by time.
That link once formed by God,
Unbroken shall remain,
Forever with the Lord
That soul shall endless reign.
