A Mcchnnic's View.

STANTON, VA, December 3, 1883.
To the Editor Of the Dispatch:
have read your paper daily for a
long time, and want to say few words
as n nottingham and n wooi-dyed Demo
crat. | want to touch on two things.
The first is Democratic inconsistency.
We know how nearly all the negroes
vote, and know how tho Radicals lie
ahout our treatment to them, while
the truth Is we employ them as me-
chancs, making them rivals to our hon
eat Democratic mechanics, and express
great surprise If our white mechanics
vote the Republican ticket. True, they
bring trouble on themselves by so doing.
but man is creature of revenge, and
they feel they ayenGe themselves on the
Democratic party, not counting costs.
| know of prominent Democrats who
employ the negro mechanic and curse
him when he votes against them. We
have them as common laborers, to which
there is no particular objection, because
we cannot control white common
labor here. had about as soon have
a Chinaman my rival or the paupers
from Europe as to have race that has
been and will be the curse OF the South
for wears. strange thing that there
are institutions who employ negro
mechanics all the time to so and come
nj will should be SO alarmed mt times rs
to want military protection against the
very race they give so many privileges.
and lower theirown Caucasian mechanics,
and then expect for us to kiss the hand
that thus smites us and our children.
We. in the next place, note the language
of great Federal general man whose
intelligence and pride should raise hun
above the low aud dangerous language OF
the InGrchi,t-that Chicago is the nest
of anarchism. IA much SO as the Anarch-
ist organ, in fact. Tue New York Mat
and Express. IN its venomous spewIngs,
utters language as foul as did the three
Anarchists who were hung. If this
country is to have such papers and such
devilish teachings. why should we hang
the Anarchists ? Rome is cheap, and If
there was little used on such fellows
humanity OF the better classes both
North aud South would be blessed there
bv. II this state Of things goes on this
much boosted land is doomed 10 certain
ruin forever. l am very truly yours.

The Negro Problem.


10 the EdifOr o. me DtSDutcH
enclose very meagre sketch OF
what was said on the race question at
the late church congress held at Buffalo,
\. \. II appears in the AmericaR
Church Times. an Episcopal Church pa
per published i'll Detroit.
As ch0rch movement the congress
has no official significance. As an evil
dence of the feeling OF northern mem
bers OF the Episcopal Church it has a
good deal
The question OF race in this coun-
try in those words the theme was
formulated must have had almost ex-
elusive reference to the negro, if the
proposeIs knew what they were talking
about, and il is to Ice supposed they did +;
for that race numbers 1,jO2, 600 souls,
the Indians 250,0l0, and the Chinese
l0lO00. Of the negroes G,500,00j re-
side iu the South ; 500, 0C0 In the North
and West.
OF the persons selected to discuss this
mOmentOus problem in the congress.
four persons were from the North two of
them from Hartford, Gonna Stste that
numbers only 10, 600 negroes-one from
BROOKLYN. aud one from New York-Mr.
Ii. l.. Harrison who was born in Nir-

OF citizens of the South the Rev. DR..
Crnmmell, of Washington city, who. it

was the only one elected, Dr. Nelson, of
Virginia, being, as he was in the war, a
volunteer.
With such selection it should sur
prize no one that the discussion wound

will understand why some southern Epis-

After the usual devotions Bishop
Coke introduced Colonel J. II. Green, Of

With the colored race, now increasing so

died in New Orleans years ago. The
Major called upon the orphans and
showed them every attention. lie ae-
commanded them 10 the White House
and secured them an introduction to the
wife of the President Mrs, Cleveland
treated them with great Kindness and
courtesy. She afterwards returned the
call and did everything to make their
visit to the capital pleasant

One of the warmest friends OF the
Major in Congress is the Hon. John H.
Moat, Of franklin county, \. \. Mr..

IN a New York regiment he met the Texas
brigade M Gainess Mills. They left him
sorely wounded on the Geld OF battle,

II was IN homer OF these two old soldiers
that the Congressional Press Club gave q

Meath bower of roses. A miniature
cannon guarded each mans plate. The
zines were exquisite. and the dinner was
oneof the costliest Of the kind ever given
Ia Washington. The menus bore the
MAJORS portrait. None at the table were
more happy than the two soldiers, who
fought their campaigns anew and mar
rated many a thrilling adventure OF the
war.
The Major is freighted with strong
common sense. Odd SMILES sparkle IN
