Mnhone's Own HIND.

The shelbyville Qnd) Reptlbiioa" boasts
as follows
Fred Mussev is writing mp tho Vir-
rinia campaign for the Commercial Gnzoitc.
and is doing It IN his usually entertaining
stvle. lie gives tine series OF pictures 0t
poor old Virginia and her nolsy pollti-
eians."
This Fnrp. MISSY is the same "Truth-
ful JAMES" who accompanied the malg-
nan. joins SHERMAN when he came to tins
State four years ago to instruc, VTginlAns
how 10 cast their ballots for Governor.
FonAKrR camo about the same time ms far

speech in the Virginia campaign Of that
year and thence took TO the woods
We detect MAHoNEs own outglvings in

Ohio enemies. He even dwolls with de-
light upon M,uoSE's small fcetl Tells bow

These are unimportant Yellowplushisms;
but. not content with publishing these
MISSY writes down for the enlightenment
Of the readers of Mr.. HALsTEAD's paper
what NaHoNF tells him rs 70 the prospects
of Republican success in Virginia next
month and as 10 the character If the Re
publcaus who refuse to doh their hats 10
this bogus GrssLEE.
She will indeed be poor old Virginia"
whenever she falls beneath the feet Of the
petty boss-the little tyrnnt. She VIII
have none so poor TODD her reverence" II
she allows the gallant, glorious F1rz LIE to
hc succeeded by such a man a. MALONE;
for if such is % be her fate, il Will be hers
only because her sons illhave boon crlm-
nally negligent Of their duty as voters.
There are about 100000 white voters IN
Virginia and about 10000 negro voters.
The Whites have an immense majority
100000 men Of the master race OF the
world. What excuse could thew make TOY
themselves If next year strangers visiting
Richmond should find a hawk IN tho eagles
nest? What apology could they make for
having allowed gallant Puu4 McKNEEY 10
be- defeated by WILLIAM MALONE In
wha; possible manner could they explain
away their apathy
But this result Is impossible. The true
mon Of Virginia DO not intend TO allow her
ever 20 come again under the rule OF the
man who few wears ago filed their Capt.
tol with his subservieut tools and cut out
work for his henchmcn which few
amongst them were patriotic enough TO
refuse 10 do. but the nature of which work
none the less proved him to he the dan
gerous character which now wa all know
him T. be. Whatever excuse may be made
for the voters who followed MnoNE In
1879 and afterwards during his short
though too long career a. the boss OF
this Commonwealth. none can be made
for the white Nirgmans who may follow
hlm in 1889. Mr. MUssEy and all the rest
Of the malignants who credit the charges
which MAHoNE brings against the true
men of Virginia. and thepredictions which
he makes a. 10 his success, will find five
weeks from TODAY that the little General
has been showed under" Tho ballots
that execute frecmnns will Will bury
hinabeyond the hope OF resurrection.

The Other Side.

Whilst Mr.. MUssEY is drawing fancy PIC
lures of MALONE for the benefit Of the Ohio
Republicans. Republican paper in Provl-
dencs is talking a. follows about the same
little man for the benefit OF the Republic
cans Of Rhode Island:
1T would bevery bad politics, of course,
10 helttle the fighting qualities OF General
Malone, especially in such a contest as
that which is now going on in Virginia.
At the same time, it Is to be noted that re-
ports from all sections of the State indl-
cate that many of the more conservative
and reputable members of the party are re-
nouncing his leadership. One of the most
prominent Of them is Judge Robert ".
Hughes, who was once himself Repuhh-
can candidate for Governor, but who now
declares publicly that he will not support
Malone. And he Is but one of score Of
influential Republicans who have made
similar announcements in the last two
weeks. Indeed, it is said by those who are
on the ground and familiar with the situa-
ton that outside Of those who are holding
and those who are seeking Federal offices.
Malone cannot count upon d hundred
really influential white Republicans But
what hc lacks in this respect he apparently
hopes to make up III negro votes"

Governor Lee. Of Virginia, has been talk
ing at LynchbuTg, IN bis State. on the race
question, and Boosting that the annual
OUTLAY for negro education under the pub
lic-schOOl system Of Virginia amounts to
$40, 900, % per cent. of which, he says. is
paid by the white taxpayers Let Us call
il interest ON unpaid slave labor. IL. how
ever. the theory of running this country
by the exclusion OF the cOlored race from
political influence that Governor Lee
maintains is the correct one. this money is
worse than wasted. III the black man is not
allowed 10 have his constitutional rights
under the war amendments; IL ne j. 10 be
excluded from the polls, and white men are
TO do his voting for him. and he Is to be
subordinated into a condition that is very
little removed from the old style slavery,
we should think educational advantages
bestowed upon HIM would Only be likely TO
cause trouble. Why should any class Of
citizens be educated above their business Z

There are some white men In Virginia who

Vermont ana Massachusetts.

Almost simultaneously with the pnblca-
zion of Governor FowLE's letter upon
which We commented in our last issue,
there appeared in the New York Ndi'on a
sharp, keen. cutting satire upon the pro-
fessed love If New Hampshire and Yer
mont for the negro This satire was
somewhat like that IN Governor FowI.E's
letter, but was not so carefully worded.
The Nations article Is as follows;
Vermont aud New Hampshire ore both
very anxious 10 increase their population,
which is steadily dw.ndling outside OF a
few cities aud large towns Organized et-
forts are making M each state to bring IN
people from outside 10 cultivate the aban-
doned farms. and II Is even proposed 10
send to Sweden and Norway for immi-
grants But why Is the most obvious
source of supply OycrlookedI There are
tens and hundreds ~ thousands OF negroes
in the South who want 90 leave Their pres
ent homes. and whose white nelghbOrs
want TO have them leave. There is serious
tale of movement to transport them IN
large numbers % the Territories IN the
Northwest which cover the same degrees
OF latitude as Vermont and New Hamp-
shire. Why not invite them into New Eng
land. and II they need help 10 get there
raise money TO bring them New England
is perfectly sure that II understands how
10 solve the negro problem and nothing
would help the country so much ~ to see
a couple Of New England States furnish an
object lesson by filling up their dwindhne
towns with negroes. doubling the length
OF the scant school-rolls with the names Of
negro children. turning over 10 negro post
masters the Offices of the pleasant summer
resorts IN the White and Green mountains
which correspond tosuch places as Bay 81;
Louis and Ocean Springs on the Gulf
coast, and generally giving the negroes
that perfect equshty which they are de-
MED in the South. There ought to be
money in It 70 satisfy Yankee thrift,
and, quite aside from pecuniary considera-
tions. the chance 10 show the rest of the
nation how perfectly simple any question
IS when New Highlander tackles IT Is too
good TO be lost. Let ushcar no more about
New England trying To tempt Nurwcglaus
and Swedes across the ocean when there
are any quantity of negroes within twenty
four hours railroad ride ready aud anxious

The New Orleans Times Democrat refer
rinc to the recent speech of General SHEB-
MAN in Cincinnati says;
General Sherman should know that he
utters libel against the white people of
the South when he states that they con-
scented to the tiiteeuth amendment. They
had no voice in tho matter. They were dis
frauchised. That measure was forced upon
them nv the party Of this politco-miltary
general. 1t cursed the southern States like
a second war coming n the desolated track
of the first In some of them IT lasted
longer than the first II is only suce that
dread curse has been partly overcome that
the South has become free, happy, and
prosperous"
That is about the size Of it.

County Official Paper.
ENGLIS H CAPITAL.

The young man whom Consul Cen
eral New and Private Secretary Hal
ford left to run the Indianapolis
Journal in their absence is now cack-
ling over English investments in this
country as vindication of our tar
if system. This particular form of
idiocy is getting tiresome, for the fol-
lowing reasons: l. If the Republi-
can policy is SO favorable'to English
capital, how does it happen that last
Fall the Republican papers said it
was the Democratic policy that Eng
ish babies cried for? 2. English in
vestments in this country are not
now; the statement that they did not
bagin to be considerable in amount
till after Harrison's election is an alb
surd and preposterous untruth.
Eight or ten years ago more English
capital was invested in American cat
tie ranges than has ever been talked
about in connection with breweries.
A tabular statement of tie English
ownership of 20,000,0O0 acres of A ner-
loan soil has been published at :nter-
walls in the Congressional Record for
several years. For the past 80 years
English capitalists have been large
holders of American railroad securi-
ties, 3. The investment of English
capital in this country is not an ex-
elusive compliment to us. 1t has
been recently stated that S122OO0,OOO
Of English capital was invested last
year in the Argentine Republic. So
great is the congestion of capital in
England that it is invested in every
thing, everywhere, even in Turkish
Egyptian and Peruvian bonds..-[Na-
tional Democrat.

Varying tho Monotony.

A Butte, (Mont.,) dispatch of the
22nd instant says:
Rigid and swollen to almost twice
it's natural size and of that peculiar
hue which distinguishes victims Of
the Yellow Jack, tho corpse of II. NJ.
Matthews, the millionaire contractor
OF Minneapolis, lies in the morgue in
this city, the direct result of his hay
ing hit tho pipe dozen times in
succession. Matthews, who was the
senior member of the extensive rail-
road contracting firm of Matthews
Brothers g. Kerrick, of Minneapolis,
came here last June to direct the
operations Of large gang of men en-
gagged on the firms contract to build
a railroad from Butte to Three Forks
He lived high and spent q great
deal Of money. On Saturday he told
his chief bookkeeper, T. G. Kreck, Of
Minneapolis, that to vary the monot-
ony of mining camp life it would be
good scheme to try opium smoking.
The pair proceeded to Chinese
opium joint, kept by All Chung, and
ordered him to prepare the pipes.
at this juncture Kreck weakened and
concluded not to indulge in smoking.
Matthews had been drinking freely
Of champagne, and swore that he
would smoke the twelve pipes which
had been prepared for the two.
This he did, and then sank into q
stupor from which he never recov
cred, dying of opium poison in spite
Of the efforts of four physicians. The
Chinaman, All Chung, and his wife
have been arrested and charged with
murder. Matthew'S remains will be
shipped to Minneapolis, whore his
widow and family Of four children
reside. Mrs. Matthews, who is in
delicate health, has not yet been ap-
I, prised OF her husbands death.
