evidently by a gang Of street cleaners
the day before, and left, TO be gathered
up at the own sweet will Of the man who
comes along later with cart, mule and
shovel. The lttle mounds were systematic
cally arranged alongside Of each other but

TRANS could see no reason for them re-
naming there all day Sunday, except
perhaps, TO teach the maids from

nelghborhood that chain Of mountains
are somewhat like unto piles OF dirt on
fashionable thoroughfare, only larger.
Then, too. along that street and on
Franklin were pieces OF newspapers,
handbills, etc, that deuacted no little
from the neatness and the beauty of the
thoroughfares, and an importation from
a colony OF rag pickers in Paris would
have found perfect success along the
two streets that RichmOnders are wont TO
point TO with so much pride.
In this correction II is aprOpOs TO say
that several brOoms in the hands Of in
dustrious laborers would do good service
on Capitol and Governor streets. The
formers sidewalk has not been swept for
months, and IL IT is the States business
to do the sweeping several convicts could
be used 10 advantage. III the city owns
the sidewalk. then let some OF the hands
and carts drift that way before the
thousands Of visitors come TO visit Rich
mond tomorrow.

Gambling at Jackson CITY.

Governor Mckinney yesterday received
the following announcement from John W.
Ross. president of the Board of Commits
sioners of the District OF Columbia:
THE Commissioners Of the District
OF Columbia have been officially advised
that gambling is practiced TO a considera-
BILE extent at Jackson City. in the State OF
Virginia, and In close proximity to the
District Of Columbia, to the great injury
and decentralization Of the youth Of the
District.
They assume that you have not
been advised OF the fact so COM
municated TO them, and venture 10
bring them 10 your attention, with the
respectful suggestion that they will, 10
the full extent Of their ability. gladly
cooperate with the State authorities in
any means which you may see fit to
adopt for the suppression Of this evil"
The Governor has referred the matter
TO Mr.. Richard w. Johnston. Common
wealth's attorney Of Alexandria, for his
action.

=. THE NEGRO A rArLUREr

Tho New York World OF sudany quotes
remark of Mr.. ingalls,. the states
,.r ou, NJ Job" TO the effect that
in his opinion the negro Is failure ana
should be deported TO Africa now IN
this Mr. ingalls, is very wrong, ana yet
from his standpoint. very right
Thu negro. as a negro, Is not failure
Under the control OF white men, he IS
. er,t-rate worker. and can do great
deal OF good in adding 10 the welfare OF
humanity and the wealth OF the world;
-, az n freeman, with power to act
,ccordingiy TO his own incllnauons' he
comes az near TO being drone and
c,,nherer OF the earth as II Is possible
for n human being to be.
Tho experience OF the world amply
nroves this statement. Outside OF the
fact that while the negro was slave In
,ba South he worked well, and did his
,,,u mart towards beneftting mankind,
we have only TO look at the West India
Islands TO see the proof Of what we have
said For sometime after the war be
tween the States the negro was
q sIave In Cuba, while in ia
r,otca on one side OF that island
and in New Providence, on another. both
belonging 70 Great Britain. he was freed
long before he was n freedman in the
South. Yet a visitor to jamaica before
SLAVERY was abolished In Cuba, would
have found him a lazy, worthless crea-
tire living on fruits and roots. and any
thing he could find rather than work.
while beggars swarmed the streets of
Kingston. harrassing visitors and hang
ing around trying TO pick up what pen
MES they could tease out OF white men,
Then going on to Cuba, where he was
under control, not one idle negro was
seen. He was hard at work making
crops. and being in many ways useful.
And still again. at Nassau, the same
thing was seen as at Jamaica, and there
would be found a thriftless. lazy gang.
where life is easy, and work is unknown.
These instances are sufficient TO show the
true character Of the negro without going
to Hayti, Porto Rico. and san DO
mingo which are ruled by ne
groes, and which. instead Of add
ing to the wealth Of the world, are, In
spite Of their good climate and fertile
soil, are barren wastes, where anarchy
constantly prevails.
Thus we see that the negro under pro-
per control is a most valuable man, but
the negro, as ingalls, knows him. is a
failure. Free him suddenly, as the South
ern negroes were freed, invest him with
the ballot. and he Immediately becomes
worthless and a drone willing to do any
thing but work.
But as Mr.. Ingalls, has helped 10 ruin
the Southern negro, he. as well as the
rest of the country. must stand him as
best they can. He IS an American citi-
zen, and cannot be deported to Africa
without his consent. and that consent
he will never give. The South is doing
it's best to elevate him, and make OF
him a useful citizen, and. though so far
her efforts have been met with nothing
but encouragement. she proposes to keep
on with the work until II is found TO
be absolutely and altogether hopeless.

The Committee Overwhelmingly Condemned
Editor Times:

The effort upon the part Of our Dem
ocratic city committee 10 rush hurriedly
into the mode of electing our members
of the General Assembly by precinct
meetings meets with an overwhelming
condemnation of the solid Dem )cracy
of Richmond. The committee, without
taking time TO consult or confer with the
Democratic party, In order TO ascertain
the views OF the same, formula ted a
plan at their very first meeting that Is
TO suppress the voice Of the people. What
show would our N erchants, 'nanufactur-
ers. bankers, brokers, in short, the whole
catalogue of business men, have in ward
meetings? The halls In which they will
be held will be packed In the interest OF
the slate by "heelers" and "bummers."
who are professionals in this business.
The men of means, who should really
have voice in this vital question, win
be shut out. This element will be ignored
altogether, and :he "heelers" and bum
mers" will be the persons who will ad-
minister justice on the bench and repre-
sent you in the halls of legislation. The
property-holders who contribute the bulk
OF the revenue for the support of the
Government, which should by all means
be consulted. will have little or no say
in this matter. l have resided In this
city for nearly thirty years. and l have
always voted the Democratic ticket, and
/ have during the whole of this period
taken the deepest interest in the political
affairs Of this city, and do here unhesl-
tatingly say the fairest mode Of obtaining
an expression Of the people is by a pri-
mary. While the solid men are engaged
in their business pursuits 'heelers" and
"bummers" are oiling the machine TO
deprive honest and substantial men Of
their rights ana before they can think
materially over this matter. they are
bound hand and foot, and must quietly
submit. There IS no wisdom or sound
policy in carrying out the ward-meeting
plan Of the committee, for Il gives wide
spread dissatisfaction, ana will bring
reproach upon the Democratic party. The
whole matter under discussion is in the
interest of the slate, and the sooner this
Is broken into atoms the better IL will
be for the Democratic party. and when
the committee ceases to voice the senti-
ment Of the party. its usefulness is at
once destroyed and at the same moment
IL becomes an undesirable and an arbi-
trary body. Let our friends Of the COM
mittee think calmly and dispassionately
over this matter. and at their next meet
Ing give the Democracy OF Richmond a
primary. The very 'name Of precinct
meeting is Objectionable and distasteful
to ninety per cent. OF the Democracy OF
this city. and why have such meetings?
To do so would be n farce, and not in &C
cordance with the definition OF Democra-
cy. inasmuch as a few would thereby
control the multitude. DO not underrate

THE PRIMARY.

Our City Committee must see by this
time that popular opinion is overwheim-
ingiy against their action In providing
for a convention instead OF primary,
and Il is to be most sincerely hoped 1t
will recall its action and let the popular
preference have its way. We are having
n paper handed around for signatures OF
those who want a primary. II we took
pains 10 circulate It. 1t would be signed
by almost every voter In the city. but
copy is at The Times Office and anyone
who wishes 10 sign II can find the paper
there. In day or so we shall print IT.
When we do so It will be seen that
every class and interest in the city is
represented. We have yet to find a sim
gle class or interest that does not favor
a primary.
