Mr.. CHAUNCEY DEPEw, a northern
republican. in the address he delivered
at the University OF Virginia yesterday,
did not designate the war between the
States as the war of the rebellion rs
Mr.. Cleveland, q northern democrat,
does. but he,did say hat after such a
war, sin any other country and in any
other age, there would have been
provinces held by military force" and
that such a condition a prevented by
'the educated brains ofthe country" In
a debate in the L. S. Senate, Mr.. Miller,
of New York, was once asked by the
late Benjamin Hill of Georgia, if he had
been asleep. The same question might
with as good reason be asked Mr.. De-
pew, for ifhe doesn't know that after the
war, the South was divided into "prov
inces held by military force" and that
among the chief advocates of that pol
icy were some Of the educated brains
of the North, every body else does, who
has not been asleep during whole the
time that has since elapsed, and to those
who live in the South such knowledge
is kept perpetual by memory's pains.

WEDNESDAY EVENING, JUNE 10, 1894

NOBODY familiar with the history OF
Thomas Jefferson believes that when be
wrote. in the Declaration of Independ-
ence, that ''all men are created equal, ;
he supposed those words would ever be
so construed as to mean that his negro
slaves should be his own or his de-
scendants civil, political and social
EQUALS, for, in that same instrument ne
charged the King with having excited
domestic Instruction among us, Il
if he thought his negroes were his
eouals. he could not have been SO III
consistent and illogical as 10 blame the
King of Great Britain for doing to him
precisely the same identical thing that
he was doing 10 the King, exciting in
srrrecuon against him. But, notwith-
Standing this plain and indisputaole
fact, Mr.. Depew. in the address he de-
livered Yesterday at the university
established by Mr.. Jefferson, said :;
jefferson promulgated the doctrine
which. nearly seventy years afterwards,
realized for his countrymen his aSpira-
ton. In view OF Mr.. Depew's educa-
ton and associations, it is not al all
wonderful that he should have ex-
pressed the idea referred 10, but it is
passing strange, 10 those who know
any thing about Virginia prior TO 1851,
that he should have been invited 10 do.

THERE ARE rumors to the effect that

they prove true, and nothing is too
strange to happen nowadays, then the

The income tax is about the only thing
left in the bill referred to that is popu-
lar, and if that, too, be abandoned, few
people will care whether the bill pass
