The Philadelphia Record notes the fact
that the registration of voters in South Car
Dina for the fall elections has been com
pleted, and over 100000 colored voters have
failed to register. Will Senator Chandler
and the other bloody shirt disciples contend
that intimidation was practiced to keep
these colored voters from registering They
will hardly do that, but next fall, when
these votes are not counted, because those
casting them plainly failed to comply with
the law, Chandler and his clique will talk
loudly about the suppression OF the colored
vote in the south. 1t is feared that the
New Hampshire senator and his numerous
"Fridays" are stupendous humbugs.
The probability is that il Mr.. Thurman
starts on a visit to his fellow democrats
outside Of Ohio he will be a long time get
hing home. He is so popular that invita-
tons 70 visit different parts Of the country
will be exceedingly numerous. II he comes
10 Georgia next fall he will hardly be able
10 get back 10 Ohio without visiting Ala
bama. Already the people Of that state are
clamoring for him 10 80 there IN case he
sislti Georgia, and no doubt Tennessee and
other contiguous states will make the same
demand /; Is certain, however, that Mr.
Thurman should not grant eve y demand
upon him. II be should be would accept a

THE MMSTREL'S LOVE.

The Minstrel wandered by the mountain stream,
And through the lcafy grove;
He tuned his iute and sang, and 10 bis theme
Was all Of love.
The birds sang Eayly all the summer day
amid the boughs above;
Minstrel heard, and answered 10 their lay,
Twas al OF love.
He met the maid that most he long'd 10 meet,
AS she az eve did rove;
He greeted her as morest friends might greet,
No word Of love!
To birds and stream his inmost heart he bears.
And might THEN pity move
For his sad lot; 10 her alone Ia dares
Not speak Of love.
All, cruel maid, canst thou not read his cyesp
CanSt thou not read hs heart
Canst thou not see that with . smile h tries
