COLUMBIA NOTES.

Republicans Organizing = California
EmigratiOn-Batch Of New COlOred
Doctors.
This is the year for the waging Of
political warfare in this country. On
one side is the army of tyranny,
bigotry, folly and oppression-the
Democratic party; on the other is the
army of human rights, truth and JUS
tice-the Republican party. Colored
men, upon what side do you propose
to muster? You must arrange your
selves on one side or the other. There
can be no compromise with wrong, if
you favor right. 1t is all folly to
give ear to the sophistry of some of
our intelligent, selfish colored politi-
clans, who urge division of the
colored men. A house divided against
itself must fall. When in the history
of the human race, where there has
been conflict of ideas with parties
or armies arrayed against each other,
one side would divide itself Cor better
stated, one part desert itself, going
to the opposing faction, and then sue
coed in defeating its enemy. Prepos-
ferrous is the thought !! i! If the
Democrats are ever to be defeated,
there must be kept up solid array of
Republican phalanxes in all parts of
the country; and the colored man
should arrange himself in such ranks.
The Republicans of Richland coun-
ty will hold their precinct meetings on
the Doth inst, to elect delegates to
State and District conventions, which
elect delegates to the National Repub-
lican convention at Chicago next June.
The field is full of candidates.
The California fever has struck this
section. If free transportation were
offered, or transportation to be paid
for in installments after arrival there,
hundreds would leave this State. 1t
would be great blessing to the Ne
gro, here, if 5000 would move to
the West. They would do a most
excellent thing for themselves, and
leave the whites in a majority, and
make the sins they commit so fire.
quently against Negro majorities un-
necessary. Again. it would put a
premium on those who remain, be-
cause of their scarcity. Diamonds
are enhanced in value by their rarity,
and because of the difficulties by
which they are obtained.
Drs. johnson, Wilder, and Smith
arrived from Washington tonight.
They are fresh from the medical col
lege and the hospital. DIR. johnson
will practice here DIR. Wilder will
return to Washington, and DR.. Smith
will seek his fortune in the West.
These are bright and worthy young
men, who should have the hearty sup
port of all men. May success crown
their efforts in alleviating the suf-
ferings of humanity, and may they
reap rich rewards. UNUs.

NEW ENGLAND LETTER.
The King of Blizzards-The Like Never
Heard of in The East Before.


The great snow storm which began
on Sunday evening March 18th and
which shaped itself into a terrible
blizzard beats the record in New
England and in the Northern States.
Beginning on Sunday morning it
continued till Tuesday evening before
it abated. At first the indications
did not give the coloring of severe
storm but the northeastly wind let
its force for two days before spending
its fury, during which time We have
never seen snow fakes fall so thick
and fast. There being such strong
wind the snow was drifted in heaps
here and there from six to eighteen
feet; in many places completely shut
up the entrances to dwelling houses.
In some instances the police force had
to have the snow shoveled away from
houses to find families completely
closed in and who had to burn lamps
in the day time to see how to move in
their houses. Others whose doors
and lower windows were barred by
snow had to jump out of their upper
windows to get out of the houses.
We know a certain minister against
whose front door the snow drifted
until the door could not be seen from
without and his family had not the
exquisite pleasure Of peeping out of it
from Sunday evening till Wednesday
noon. The streets were made i'm
passable. Even sleighs could not be
drawn by horses. In the streets the
snow averaged about two feet. Trains
which started from Bridgeport Monday
morning for New York and New
Haven we're stalled on the road till

Buchanan lived but

age OF sixtysfye. Buchanan lived but
seven years after leaving the presidency.
johnson Is the other president who re-
entered public life, though he resppsared
but for Q moment. Upon his retirement
in 100 Johnson at once set about securing
al { ffic,al return to the cspitol in which
he had been the centre OF 30 much tur>
moil. He was defeated for the senate in
1870 aud for congress at large in ~, but
in 1874 was elected to tie United States
senate He died the next year.
General Grant lived about nine years
sf.er retiring from the presidency, then
barely past hIs prime, and his last years
were not without many troubles and dis
appointments. Hayes, the only living e1-
PRESIDENT, seems placid ard content in
his sixty. sixth year, while his immediate
successors met their fate untimely, the

What is to be the future of President
Cleveland? ROBERT GRAVES.
