But as the politicians put il here, con-
ceding Mr., Sherman large share OF the
southern vote in the convention, how, in
the event of struggle, can he hope to
hold itP No candidate ever did, II is nota-
bly, tickle and unreliable. II is etcrnally
on the trade. Gen, Arthur's experience
with II is fresh in evcrybody's mind. His
strength at Chicago was drawn from the
south, and when he entered the conven-
ton success seemed within his grasp. But
when the tug Of war came his southern
supporters were the first TO forsake him,
notwithstanding the fact that many OF
them We're under heavy obligations TO him.
Mr.. Sherman may look TO have this his
tory repeated to him. He may go into the
convention with his southern friends
swearing eternal allegiance TO his fortunes,
but the very first mention OF Mr.. Blaino's
name will cost him the support of the last
man of them.

State, but now resident of one of the
Territories, said 10 the correspondent of

supporter OF Mr.. sherman, but am salts

1t prevails everywhere throughout the

many Allison men in my county, but the
sentiment is secondary 10 that for Mr..
Blaine out there. Indeed, Republicans
are so well satisfied that the old leader will

take care OF her own common schools. She
was doing 1t now in a way to put to the
blush many of the older States The fran.
ers OF this bill seemed to think the whole
United States was to be put upon "the
Blsnket Indian basis' to be lassoed and
put into school. The next step in the pro-
gress of usurpation would be compulsory
education. The school master intended to
take possession Of the land, and this bill
would give him in the State of Alabama
100000 year in salaries, while all the
State expenses OF the Government were but
5000 coo.
Senator Blair remarked that he did not
believe in compulsory education.
Senator Morgan said that was certainly
the only reason why compulsory educs-
ton was not in the bill, because the Ssna-
tor from New Hampshire had got every
thing in it that he believed in. AS to the
political objects of the bill, the senior
Senator from New Hampshire (Blair)
wanted to protect the ballot box by edu-
eating the negroes while the junior Sena-
tor (ChsDdler) wanted to Go 1t by taking
the sbo'guDs out of the hands of the
white men. That was the proposition.
They had no more right to interfere With
mans voting in the State of Mississippi
than he (Morgan) had to interfere with a

was the discouraging of the cooperation

made by Congress to benefit the condition
OF the negroes. The Freedmen's Bank was

hood which they possessed, and prevent
the very best efforts of their friends in the
South from making anything of them. He
concluded by expressing the hope that he
never again should be called upon to speak
on the Blair bill.
Senator Evarts took the floor and an.
nounoed bis intention to speak upon the
bill tomorrow.
Senator Edmunds offered g resolution,
which was adopted, calling on the Com
missioner of Agriculture for the reports
made by Prof. SWenson on the subject of
sugar making.
Senator D0lph introduced bills (Which
