THE DEMOCRACY.
Their Latest Political Dodare-Tke Arrest al
the Bulilniore Nettroea The Arraotteuieat
Proven la be One of their Tricks Mcaadalana
tJouduct an the Part at" the Police Authorities.
The matter of the wholesale arrest of negroes
yesterday morning by Lieutenant Klllacky and
a squad of policemen has created a feeling
of disgnst among not only our colored cltlzeas,
bat also among the more respectable portion
of the white fraternity. The movement wan
obviously one of the many desperate attempt
now being made by the Democracy In the lntereu
of their candidates. The many recent cxpoaiti.iua
of the fraudulent doings of the Democratic leaders
And the police force were operating so successfully
agalnat the ' unterrltied'' that something must le
done to counteract thtilt Influence ; ami what else
would effect that result better than the arrest or a
lot of negroes, who it could be alleged were coming
here from other places for the purpose of vot'ng the
Kepubllcan ticket? And who could arrange the
programme better than Josephs and the other
at leaders of the Democracy? They are known
to be nsing every artifice to accomplish the election
of Oerker and Laws, the opponents u Messrs. Lends
and Bunn, to tVe sac n (lea of the real of theticKii,
and Madame Rumor has It, upon good authority,
that they are now upending mouey whlnh will here
after be taken from the police department. Tufy
have resorted to every dodge, and this, their latest,
is the weakest attempt yet made. It was so tram
parent that it was at once said tfiat they were the
lathers of It, aud later development luve coaulu
slvelty shown that the Remniica is ha I BoUiin to
do with the matter. One of these Demo-ra M Wa f
ers was openly (narged wttu having ma le tne ar
rangement, aid he dared not deny It Tne pi of
operations, as disclgaetl subsequently, were that a

can party of this city, ue was o lala-.e
themtoviblt Philadelphia and gU them t witfi
the promise or an additional i'.O. hile on the wiy
ie WflS to supply them with tax receipts signed by a
Kepubllcan collector, and these stickers, which It
was thought would couvIdcc the pe pie uf 1'alUd Ji
hia tliat it waa a Republican arrangement. Bit
the presence of the stickem of Messrs Leeds aud
Burin wae stroDg evidence that theleadeiaef fie
uiiterillled" were In the. plot, and the presence of
the tax receipts was much stronger evidence of tu u
fact, for thev have beeu proven to be forgeries. Mr.
Joscpn Tatham, the personal poll-tax collector of i
the Second ward, hearing that hi name was ftp- I
pended to these documents, repaired to the Centra'.
Station and openly awserted that he had issued n j
receipts In the names given, and under hta arm was
his orttcial record. He demanded of Alderman Ks r
to see the documents, but waa refused. lie theu ap
plied to Colonel Mann, and that gentleniin, as h a
counsel, made a demand of the magistrate, whan he
was referred to the Chief of Police, and notwitn
standing that their production waa so daiit.igiiig to
his party he directed that they be exhibited, ui
examination Mr. Tatham boldly proclaimed them
forgeries. But to continue tne plan of the Demo
crats: This fellow in Baltimore, having got a s m 1 1
of ignorant negroes, gave information which redded
the Chief of Police of tnt place, who telegraph 1
to the Chief of this city, that colored repeaturs wera
on their way to Philadelphia. The police then r
palredtoArch street wharf, and on the arrival or
the steamer made the arrest; but lu dolug that tUdy
allowed the leader, a white man, to eauape. an t, it is
believed. Intentionally. It was no part of ttiu pro
gramme to intercept him, for bad he been aceu tur
is no doubt but that he would have been reu og a'zul
as a Democratic tool.
The condui t of the authorities after the ln ;a';e
ration of these negroes waa scaudaio-is in tit-;
extreme. The Bews of their arrest spread raui ty,
and coming to the knowledge of colored residua',
some of them, knowing that there was t j bs an O id
Fellows' demonstration at Wilmington, weur t ti-i
station, where they were notified that uuiess ui"V
immediately quit ihe plae they wo il I o i ).:od
up They applied to counsel, aud Mr. J. Aieu lr
KlmpsoD and Major J. T. Pratt repaired r.r di.inr.ti'.
limes to the station, and were refused the r t lity-i
of - seeing their clituts. The farmer was ti'-iat-ed
more as a felon thau au attorney. App:i: I'iou wa-i
made to Mayor Fox, aud the only answer llut e u.d
be obtained was that the prisoners would have a
bearing at 2 o'clock. TUo reporters ot the paolic

Cask Dismisskd. The Democracy this morning
made u lame atu tnpt to imprison a colored nun
named Jacob Turner, residing In Lynn street,
Twelfth ward, upon the chargo of perjury. The
allegation was that he had vouched for a m-iu
named knoots, wh was not a resident of the ward.
Competent testimony was given to the ertoct that
knoou redded with Mr. Paris, No. 417 Lynn street,
for over six weeks. This was at the tune Turner
vouched for him. On.'y a week Bluce the man left
the honso, and moved Into another section of tries
city. 1 he hearing In this case came before Alder
man Kerr, who discharged the prisoner, after hav
ing held 111 in list evetdng for the hearing to-duv.
The name of Knoots had been stricken lioui tiia

North Carolina Politico.
Special Despatch to the Evening Telegraph.
Washington, Oct. 8. An ex-United
States Marshal of North Carolina, who has just
arrived here, says Governor Holden is engaged
in a bitter fight with his own organ, the Raleigh
Standard. They have repudiated each other,
and the Standard promises some rich revela
tlons about Ilolden's administration of State
affairs. The Democrats only lack two of having
a two-thirds majority in the Senate. It is be
lieved that they will throw out at least three of
the Republicans, and thus get complete control
of the Senate. In the event of this the pro
gramme Is to Impeach Holden and turn him out
of office before his term expires.
Important Proclamation to be Issued.

I In other words, to prevent such espionage,
which in its results amounts to a blockading of
our ports by foreign armed vessels. The nuk
ing of our ports depots for supplying material
of war for belligerents is also prohibited. The
proper officials of the United States will be
instructed to enforce the provisions of the
proclamation.

A COSFIDENCE (U5IE.
A Washington correspondent of the N. Y.
Tribune writes: ,
A person purchased certain real estate 'n 180J,
when be was engaged in open and active Loj
tilltv to the Government, aud also took the
conveyance with full knowledge of the purpose
for which it was made to him. After the ter
micatienof the Rebellion, and when it was
found that the land wold not be confiscated,
the father-in-law without value consideration.
Acting Commlaaloner Douglas decides that I his
conveyance confers a taxable succession
upon the son-iu-law, because the conveyance to
the father, made for the purpose above-mentioned,
was hostile to public policy; that both
parties were in equal fault; that the rule of law
that when the parties are equally in wrong, the
condition of the possessor better applies in this
cafe: that Inasmuch as tbe law leaves parties iu
equal fault just where it finds tbem, and gives
no relief by an acllou which requires aid from
an illegal contract iu its support, the title of the
father-in-law was good a against the soo aud
bis heirs; that the conveyance of the father-in-law
was therefore purely voluntary, aud being
a voluntary conveyance made without valuable
consideration must be held and taken to confer
upon the guarantee succession, as provided iu
lection 132 of the act of June 3, TbOl. Amended.
