THE COIORED CITIZEN.

Time, which Is The cure-a!l Snd tue
crea, adjuster, has demonstrated TO the
coored people OF the South that the only
possible soIution Of deficient question
of politics and of business relations Is a
correct and just understanding OF the
situation. The Republican party, by
breeding dssension between the two
races very naturally arrived nj the logical
result of great and criminal mistake
They innamed passions that at that
neriod if we make fair allowance for the
circumstances. can be excused But al
present, when the failure of the Republi'
can party is The siGu-post and proclama'
ton of that bad policy, il ia time that the
calored voter should learn better than 10
allow himself to be headed ny Malone
merely for political purposes that can
not benefit the colorei race, but only
M, him in blind conflict with The people
who employ him and give taxes to educate
him.
If city communiiie, claim superior in
telligence in poliiics and business affairs
then the colored voter should aspire TO
something higher han being the mlnions
of Mahonr.
One Of the best authorities Of the race
said that its destiny was indissoln5ly
associated with that Of the white race
in the South. If this be trHe the policy
of practical wisdom ispeacc and not war
The development OF the great south IN
der The new order Of things cannot pro
coed rapidly OF unnaturally if the great
laboriDg class is to oppose the elements
that are to furnish the capital and The
wages. So long as one class is politically
arraycd against the other by mere poll
,ical IDEAS the wheels Of progress are
clogged. The white people vote taxes
for education, and they represent the
employing wealth and active capital 1t
is in vain to say that they absolutely ncea
the labor.
The labor needs the capital much more
than ;he capital does the labor, because
capital has been called thing with swift
legs. Capital will fly from places OF I'M
certainty and danger, and il is supremely
TO the interest of the laboring classes to
make the south a safe as well as prom
ising place for capital The new r'viliza-
lion is sweeping over the old agricultural
civilization, and commerce and manuiac'
lures assume the power that agriculture
once had. Now, at the opening OF great
national contest, the Republicans are
making ready to give the South bad
name lust in The same way as before 10y
manufacturing outrages and using the
coored voter a. a sort Of dummy martyr
to be advertised all over the North as the
victim of persecution
We fail TO see where The pretended per
secuiion is; and it looks Ike plain thing
for the colored voter, if M is ever TO un-
derstand the rights and dignity of citizen
ship, to take this oaporunityto stand UP
for the character of the country in which
his destiny and that of all his people is
cast.
We address these words to The colOrel
people because we will never tire OF using
reason as long as there is any show for il,
and because we are inclined to charge
the errors of the colored people more 20
their bad instructors and leaders among
the whites than to them.

concerned. Mr.. Dertw can secure it. Il
is practically his already. That is, ii is
willing to give him is solid vote If he
wants il. But Chauncey does not want
il until he thinks he can win in the CON
yeniiOn. In other words, he Is seemingly
Indifferent, while really he Is watching
things very closely and waiting. The
feeling of the delegates from the West
and South after they get to Chicago Will
cause Mr. Depew to either say TO the New
York delegates, Come on, boys I'm IN
for it," or Il feel very much iiattered,

TERMINAL AND TENNESSEE.
The Directors OF the Roads Meet But
Keep Mum.

NEW YORK, July 24-The Richmond
Terminal directors met to-day for the pur-
pose of considering further the sale of their
East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia rail-
road stock to the Norfolk and Western CONS
pany.
The meeting lasted nearly two hours. Ii
is said that there Is considerable opposition
10 the sale in the Terminal board, several of
the directors claiming that the fundamental
principle Of the Terminal company should
be To continually increase its possessions
and never relinquish anything once ac-
quired.
The recently pending negotiations may,
therefore, result in the Terminals adoption
Of some plan TO increase its interest in the
East Tennessee road, so as to give it abso-
Lutte and perpetual control Of that property
instead of selling out the interest it now
holds. At the same time negotiations with
the Norfolk and Western people are not en-
tirely abandoned, but committee was ap-
pointed by President lnman to-day TO con-
fer with President Kimball of the Norfolk
and Western, and after careful considera-
tion of the subject TO report back to the
Terminal board at "A meeting TO be held
next Thursday for the purpose of hearing
that report
WALL STREET A GUESSING SCHOOL.
II is safe 70 say that the Terminal COM
pany will act in accordance with the recom-
mendations Of the committee. In the mean
time Wall street is resolved into an animated
guessing school rs 10 what will be done, and
Terminal securities are feverish and sensi-
tive. The committee appointed by Presi-
dent Inman consists of George s. Scott,
President OF the Richmond and Danville;
Gen. Samuel Thomas, President OF
the East Tennessee, Virginia and
Georgia. and Hon. w. s. Chisholm,
who Is identified with the Plant system. In
the selection OF these gentlemen to consti-
tute that committee, it was obviously the
aim Of President Inman b give the various
interests that combine in the terminal COM
pany, fair and equal representation so that
the contemplated deal may be considered in
all us bearings, and no action taken except
for the good of all concerned.

FREEDMAN's BANK DEPOSITS.
White Depositors Don't Like the Dis

White Depositors Don't Like the Dis
elimination by Congress.
WASHINGTON, July 24.--Since the pas
sage by the-senate of the bill to reimburse
depositors of the Freedman's savings and
trust company for losses incurred by the
failure of said company, the
comptroller Of the currency, as ex-
ofiicio commissioner of said trust, has
issued the following circular in reply to
remonstrances received from white deposit
ors against that provision of the bill which
limits relief to depostors of African de-
scent:
This bill does not in any way alter, impair
or affect the rights of any depositors
in the Freedman's savings and trust company
to his full share Of the proceeds of the
assets Of that institution. The corpora
ton is in liquidation, and that liquidation will
proceed and whatever is ultimately realized
will be divided among all the depostors who
have proved their claims in accordance with
the existing laws The effect of the bill passed
by the senate will be. if it becomes a law,
simply to make good to those for whose benefit
exclusively the institution was originally de
signed the difference between their share OF the
assets of the corporation and the amount of
their deposits. This is a pure gratmty from
congress TO these people and the distinction in
their favor rests upon the questionable fact
| that none but persons Of African descent had
any right 10 make use OF the Freedman's saw
ings and tiust company in any manner, or to &c
quire by any means any interest whatever
in it's assets. Neither you nor any other white
depostors have any claim upon the bounty Of
congress. You were bound TO know the imi-
tatiOns Of the charter of the corporations with
which you dealt and therefore to know that the
officers could not lawfully take your deposits.
It is not now intended to in any
way inhict upon white depostors
any loss any injury or even any censure.
They have been up to this time. treated like
| those dcpositors who could alone lawfully make
use OF the institution, and know Of no reason
why they should not continue to be treated in
the same way, so far as the assets of the corpo-
ration are concerned. Very respectfully,
w. l.. TRENHOLM, Commissioner.
