An old Baptist preacher, who was In
the habit of reading and commenting upon
a passage OF Scripture at family worship,
writes DR.. J. c. Hden. in the Religious
Herald, once happened upon the thir-
teenth chapter of Paul's Epistle TO the
Romans. The old preacher was a de-
cided Democrat, and a great admirer OF
Mr.. jefferson. He read Let every
soul be subject unto the higher powers;
for there is no power but of God. Who
soever, therefore, resisteth the pow
er, resisteth the ordinance of
God; and they that resist shall re-
ceive to themselves damnation,' etc.
This did not sound like the Jefferson doc
trine. The old preacher paused and
then delivered his comments. as follows:
There's where / differ from Brother
Paul. He was n great preacher. and n
splendid writer. but it's jest as plain as
daylight that he wasn't no Democrat
Mr.. jefferson tells us that all power
comes from the people. "-Charlottesville

THE ALEXANDRIA GAZETTE on THE
WALTON LAW.
The Alexandria Gazette says:

'The Richmond Times continues 10
stimulate the Republicans In Congress In
their proposed attempt 10 deprive all the
Democratic congressman elected In this
State last fall of their seats, upon the
ground that the law under which they
were elected, the Walton law, was In
tended to prevent the negro men In the
State from voting as they wish.' and
that that law docs not secure to the
voters a free vote and a fair count.
White and black men I'm Virginia have
now voted twice under that law, and the
first ono OF either race has yet 10 swear
that by means OF IL either his own or
any other mans ballot was not received
and counted
We cannot see how the contention we
have been making tends towards unseat-
ing any of the members of Congress from
Virginia The Walton law may have
been intended 10 prevent the negro men
in the State from voting as they wish"
and still all that offered 10 vote in the
congressional election may have been al
lowed to vote as they WISH" and their
votes may have been counted as cast.
The record of each contested case must
be inspected TO determine whether this Is
so or not before any opinion can be
formed in respect TO any member, and
The Times has not examined any OF these
records. 1t does not follow that because
the law was intended to suppress the
negro vote that 1t is proven in the cases
of the Virginia congressman that that
vote was actually suppressed in the late
congressional election.
What sophistical special pleading II is
for the Gazette to say that although we
have had two elections under the walton
law. no man. white or black, has yet
sworn that his ballot was not received and
counted. How can any man swear any
thing on the subject? II he is an iliterate
man. and gets the constable TO mark his
ballot. how can he tell whether IL is
marked correctly or not? He has TO de-
liver it 10 the judges folded, and he Is
not permitted to show 1t to any one and
ask if the constable has marked II cor
rectly or not? How can he make any
oath of any sort whatever in the premises
cxcept that the constable put some
marks on MS Ddliot anu 1'iu "i'''
TO mark 1t and that he delivered II TO
the judges? The voter is as helpless TO
find out whether he has been swindled,
II he has been, as a babe would De III
buffeting with the waves Of the ocean,
OF course. if the Alexandria Gazette really
believes that the Walton law was en-
acted to secure fair elections, there Is
ground for argument between us. But
we hardly suppose the Gazette would say
that IL really believes this. II II spoke
on the subject at all we suppose IL "ouio
frankly admit that IT was intended 10
s,,un,ess the illiterate negro vote, that
il does suppress a great part u ~ """

had an opportunity. He was Obliged 10
do something for a living. and would
either resume the practice OF law or
turn his attention to journalism. He
preferred the latter, and had already
received a couple Of offers, but had not
decided upon accepting them, or, in fact.
upon any definite course. He said he
preferred to live in Portsmouth 10 any

II is telegraphed from st. LOUIS 'h"l
the Hon. J. Sterling Morton has had
an interview there in which he said'
..yvhv should President Cleveland be
onnosed 10 a third term any more lhah

thai president Cleveland is a candidate
for a third term: for. as TO that, no
one knows but himself. The talk OF a
-1ird term has been connned only 10
newspapers and there is no one VINO can
saw he ever heard Mr. Cleveland give
an expression on the subject
81 am not in a position to state whether
Mr.. Cleveland will be a candidate or
not. There is enc thing j can say now
ever. The management OF the govern
ment Is a business, as is the manasem' III
Of "a bank. In a bank the business 10

the finances of many people II a BANK
president has proven himself competent
and faithful. he is reelected, not only
once or twice, but dozens OF times.
THE business OF government IS that
of managing and preserving the interests
Of the people of nation, and MAINTAIN
ing life, liberty. and property, and If "A
bank president is elected many times,
why should it not be so with the Presi-
dent of the United States?'
The difference between the two cases
is so perfectly apparent that we can
hardly believe .ir. Morton ever ma lie
any such statement. The stockholders of
a bank are all intent upon making divi-
dends upon their stock. Whoever is a
shrewd financier that watches the bust
ness of loaning money carefully and
scrutinizes the security offered for each
loan. is the an they want for president
OF that bank, and each stakeholder has
his eye upon the president with view 10
keeping him in his office, while ne
watches the banks affairs closely. but to
turning him out the moment he becomes
negligent or careless.
But the President Of the United States
Is not at the head of a great business
concern. He is at the head of a great
political machine. His is a case whore
everybodys business is nobody's business.
The consequence is that an ambitious
man long continued in the Office OF Presi-
dent of the United States may build up
a personal following OF hsolers and de-
pendents that may become strong enough
10 overthrow any organized opposition 20
violate the Constitution and laws.
