COUNTING OUT THE SOUTH.
An Ingenious Scheme to Reduce the Basis
of Representation by Falsely Emu
merating the Negroes.
From the Baltimore SUI.

t'tAA ti4S @'s&ItilllcIS = bIU
WAsHISGToN, April 30.-According
to the alleged authority of the clerk OF
Senator Quay, Mr.. Porter, the superin.
tendent of the census, is to have the
enumeration Of the negroes in the
South made in so careless and incor,-
plete matter as to give faction only
of their real numbers. BY this plan
the South is to lose eighteen or twenty
Representatives In the meantime the
increase of representation under the
new census in the Republican States
will give that party as many addition
al members, and make their control of
the House of Representative safe and
permanent. This and a lot Of similar
stuff, it is said, was communicated by
Mr.. Quary's young man at the Pitts
burg banquet on Saturday night last.
In the closing hours of that banquet,
according to reports, the wine was in
and the was out, and many things
were said not desirable for the public
to hear concerning Republican plans
and plots for the future.
1t is we'll known and appreciated
here, and has been ever since the meet
ing of Congress, that the Republican
leaders, having now every branch of
the Government in their control, are
determined to avail of every possible
means to perpetuate their power, and
will be restrained by no scruples what
ever. All of them have been Matching
out schemes for six months past, and
the busy brain of Quay has been ,ope
of the most active. 1t has been said
that at the approaching meeting of tie
National Republican committee in this
city Mr.. Quay will be prepared to lay
before his associates some details of a
scheme to capture the next House of
Representatives in despite of and in
defiance OF the overwhelming popular
majority throughout the country
against him and his associates. It NAV
be that some such idea as is put into
the mouth of his clerk may have been
suggested, but it is scarcely to be ap-
pretended that it could be seriously
entertained, because it could not pos
sibly be carried, out. There are too
many difficulties surrounding it to
mrke it success.
Mr.. Quay, it is said, is opposed to
any more election laws, believing the
party purposes can be best accom-
plished through other methods. On
the other hand, Speaker Reed, Sena-
tors Hoar, Chandler and others think
an ironclad election law, giving the
power to their creatures to register,
count and certify, is all thot is needed,
All these minor ideas and schemes will
probably be discussed at the meeting
of the national committee. Mr.. Porter,
the superintendent Of the census, might
possibly help out the Protectionist
cause by skilful and adroit manipul a.
ton of industrial and manufacturing
statistics; but even if he were disposed
to make the attempt, and there is no
reason to believe he would lend himself
to such a scheme, it would be, %
Herculean task to drop from the
enumeration Of the population 2,0OO,-
900 persons.
