TIE FEW democrats who have been
appointed to Office in Washington by
the present democratic administration
are, it is stated, making arrangements
for expected removal 500 after the in

ought to know, that fully nine-tepths
of, government employees in Wash
ington are republicans. and this, too,
near the last year OF IN administration

GENERAL TERRELL, the q. S. minis
ter to Turkey, is a wise man in his day
and generation. He has advised tn
American missionaries in Turkey to
leave that country, as their occupation
there is q constant source of irritation
to the people thereof, and liable at any
time to provoke disturbance and blood
shed, and therefore utterly futile as a
means of p%roselyting. They have e1,
hibited their willingnessI o do good, ac-
cording to their light, but as they c,n,
not ram their religion down tt e
throats of the obdurate and fe.
rocious heather. they are not calico
upon by reasonable men, even of their
own faith, to persist in their attempts
to exterpate Islamism from its native
heath.

The MISCELLANY" ON GENERAL
LEE.-"Miscellany" is the name of q
little magazine, or booklet, the first
number of which has just been issued
by Mr.. Thos. D. Bailie, of Buena Vista.
The following from the miscellany,
in regard to General Fltzhugh Lee will
be read with interest "The concensus
Of from all quarters of Virginia
seems to be that General Fi'zhugh Lee
must be the democratic candidate for
governor in 1897. Those who watch
carefully the political winds say that
the republicans will surely nominate
that gallant soldier, General James A.
Walker, as their standard bearer. His
nomination will necessitate the nomi-
nation of General Lee, as he is be-
iieved to be the only democrat who
can carry the State against him."
A friend o. Gen. Fitzhugh Lee states
for publication in the Lynchburg News
that the General has declined to enter
tain any proposition looking to his
nomination for the governorship of Vir-
gsnia. He adds, however, that it is
rather early for the discussion of such a
subject. There is some talk of Gen.
James a. Walker being the republican
candidate for Governor, and many
democrats are of the opinion that Cen
eral Lee would be the strongest man
the democrats could put up to oppose
him.

Now THAT Baltimore has joined the
republicans, New York is about tie
only Northern city that is truely demo
cratic, and as the time has not yet come
when it would seem fit to the North
that a national convention should be
held in the South, it is only natural
that the democratic feeling of the whole
country should favor New York BIS the
place for holding the next national
democratic convention.

he bought the votes of the negro dele
gates to the national republican o
pention, publishes a letter be received
from the late General Sherman, in
which the General said "Ifyou bought

FRIDAY EVENING, NOV. %. 1895.

THE NEGROES of Boston have held
another public meeting in that
CITY and declared that the negroes
]vnched in the South are not guilty OF
the crime of which they are accused,
and are murdered for no other purpose
than to intimidate their race in this
section and destroy their ambition to
become self-respectipg citizens and
that unless lynching negroes in the
South for alleged outrages upon white
women and girls be stopped at once,
thew will take the matter in their own
hands. retaliate in kind. and suppress
it summarily, and in a way that Will
long be remembered. They have been
stimulated to such action by the
recently developed solid North aid
broken and divided South. They lit
tie know what wrath they are laying up
against their race. But what can be
said of the Southern so-called demo
Gratis in Maryland and Kentucky whose
recent votes helped to incite Northern
negroes to such foolish action?
