Ho was defeated for tho Vico Presidency, nnd Illinois clceted a Democratic legislature tha, will till his plaoo in tho Senate- with a Democrat. Our Republican friends are seeking consolation now, by telling tho Demo crats how thov aro going to beat us in 1883. Wo beliovo wo heard some such talk as that within tho last fow weeks boforo the election, only they fixed the timo in 1881. They assert that Hlaine was tho strongest candidate they could have nominated. Well, if they can't beat us with the strongest candidate there is not much doubt about what tho result will bo erith a weaker man in the field. No doubt a few Democrats here and thcro regard tho election of Mr. Cleve land to the Presidenoy as tho in auguration of an era ot lat, pioKing ior hungry citizens who have been wan dering in tho wilderness for twenty four years the turning out of one set ot cormorants to let in a. fresh lot. Mr. Cloveland is the gentleman who will dinannoliit theso loftv patriots. Ho seems to have been ordained for that sort of business. World THE DlfFEBENOE. Thero is n marked contrast between the Democratic aud Republican partios in their conduct when they suffer a do feat. Tho former bows gracefully to the will of the majority, and even when tho majority was in their favor, as in 1876, but they wore oounted out by tho constituted authorities, they submitted quietly nnd peaceably to thu result, although it was a clear cso of fraud. How differently has tho result of tho recent election been received by the opposito party ! As soon as it had become known that Vow York had gone for Cloveland and that ho was elected, tho organs, tho loaders, and even tho defeated candidate himself, proclaimed that Blaino and Logan were, elected, and that the correction of frauds m New 1 ork would prove it. Bluff and blow and bluster were em ployed, bat to no effect. Although Mr. Blaino atlnouucod that he had "re liable data" to show his election tho official conut of New York failed to discover any shadovv of fraud, and tho canvass made a ohange of a very small number in tho votes, aud this change was made by slight clerical errors on both sides. Defeated and disappointed, Mr. Blaiae was also deeply chagrined by the exposure of his false clnim, and in stead of making any apology or expla nation for his ill-timed pronunciamen to, he seeks his revenge by a venomous speech at Augusta, by charging "mur der and violence" upon the democrats of the South, "whenever murder and violence are necessary'' to intimidate the negroes. Tins statement, like his claim to the election is utterly ground less aud untrue. It is a revival of sectionalism of tho most bitter kind, nnd from tho tone of the organs endor sing Blaine's speech we take it that this is to ! o tho issue of the next Pres idential election. Mr. Blaine is poiing for tho nomination in 1888, and has struck his key-uote. And it is a note that isnot at all in unison with tho tune hu playod in his letter of acceptance when he was expectiug to carry Reveral Southern States. His utterances since his defeat have sounded like tho vapor ings of a disordered mind. Meanwhile, Grover Cleveland, President elect, is quietly attending to his duties at Al bany. THE FUTURE. Tho Democratic party comes into power at a timo when it will require tho utmost caution nud the soundest judgment to conduct the affairs of tho country in a manner that will be satis factory to tho majoritj . Tho opposi tion papers and leaders are puUini? ev ery possible obstacle in tho way of the new administration. Tiicy are cmlcav oiing to incito ill feeling between the white nnd colored races in thu South, nnd' they nre trying to stngnato tho businees ot tho country ny their un founded predictions of what tho De mocracy will do when thoy get control of tho government. Among tho many foolish things that are predicted, aro that tho negroes of tho South will bo forced back into slavery ; that tho pen sinus of Northern soldiers will bo stop ped : that tho debts of tho Confedera oy will bo paid ; that a free trado poli cy will bo adopted that will ruin our industries, aud much more of tho samu sort. Unfortunately there are some people who aro credulous enough to believe all this nonsense, and tuo feel inir of uncertainty thus established by tho Republican party, helps to further depress tho already depressed condition ot trade. But tho country has tho assuranco of U rover Ulevcland that under his ad ministration the rights of the people will be respected, regardless of color, Ho favors civil service reform, and promises that it will bo the earnest en deavor of his administration to con duct public affairs for tho best interest ot the whole nation, in a recent inter view he said : "No harm shall come to any busi ncss interests as tho result of adminis trative policy so lone as I am Presi dent. I intend to suirouud myself uatli tho best and broadest minds in tho party and then bend all my ener gies towards making an administra tion that shall at least assuro every ele ment that a transfer of executive con trnl from ono party to another does not mean any serious disturbance of eristitiir conditions." With a determined excoutivo, nnd oven with tho wildest thorolsts in tho House there could bo no legislation without the concurrence of n Romibli can Senate. Hut the Huuso will at tempt nothing that will not bo for tho cood of tho country. The Democratic party mul carry out the principle laid down in its platform i it must keep its promises i it must show itself worthy of the trust reposed in it and its com. iiienoy to conduct public nffnirs j this I done, there can hu no queetlou as to i)us futuio of this nation. Logan's pllence sluco tho election has been explained by tho fiiettlml ho wns knocked speechless by tho ver dict 'of tho American people It has become painfully npparcnt from tho re cent utterances of Hlainu that ho too suffored from tho shock. Ho wns knocked hchscIcjs nnd has not yet recovered. It is really astonishing how many lunatics there aro roaming about 'out side of tho Institutions prepared for tho caro of suoh unfortunates. Most of them aro suffering just now under tho halluclnntlou that because tho Demo cratic iiarty has wrested tho govern ment irom uiu nanus in uiuiiuuiisih and demagogues, tho country is going to tho demultion bow wows. As time passes on, they will gradually coino to their senses, when they discover that tho Republican party does not contain nil tho brnins nnd intelligence of tho country. It is a mark of good citizen ship to bow with submission to the will of the majority, but the Republi can party lias been making an exhibi tion of itself over sincu the lection, by its bigotry nnd arrogance, in the impu dent nimimption that no ono can run tho affairs of this nation but them selves. Wo would suggest that a little ico on tho head is good for iv fevered brain. The Colored Leaders on Blaine. It is growing to be n disputed ques tion as to whether Blaine or Burohard is entitled to tho prize for the most in jurious speeoh. Iu his Augusta har angue Mr. Blaino sought to break the Solid South by inciting ill fcolini? be tween tho races, but tho desired effect does not seem to have been produced. We print below what lending colored republicans say on the subject. Ex-Sonator Ilruce's Philadelphia Interflow. That sneeoh f Blaine's at Augusta will doubtless bo the cause of great uu easiness aud mental distress among thu colon d people of the South. Form nately its effects can only boshoit llved. Such utterances were demagog ical in tho oxtremo and wholly unwar ranted. I think I ought to know some thing about our peoplo in tho South. Tho greatest harmony exists between tho white and colored races. Blaine's charges of intimidation aud violence at tho polls aro absolute and unqualified falsehoods. To-day tho South is loy al nnd peaceful. Its people, whito aud black, nre, or were until Mr. Blaino fo mented this now antagonism, in the right framo of mind to enter upon har raouious relations witli tho peoplo of tho North. They were especially de sirous that the iileasnnt business rela tions should not be interrupted. This is exactly what Mr. Blaino strikes at, and his Augusta speecli has lowered him in popular estimation more than any act of his life. Interrlew of W. A Pledger, Colored Chairman of the Georgia Republican Slate Committee. I beliovo that Cleveland's adminis tration will bo characterized by suoh conservatism as will make it one of ihu most successful in thu history of our Presidents. In this view I have with me many of tho most prominent color od Republicans throughout tho South. We made every effort to elect Mr. Blaine beoauso he was) the candidate of the Republican parly, aud the colored peoplo havo always voted with that party. Since his defeat our peoplo have been moro than gratified at the course of our white Democratic friends. Nothing but tho kindost words havo been spoken for us. We recognize tho fact that the white Democrats of tho South are those among whom our fortunes aro cast. I can safely say, in speaking for myself and i, 000,1)00 col oied peoplo of thu South, that if Gov ernor Cleveland's administration Car rie out only half of tho promises which have been made before tho next elec tion the colored votes will bo equally divided between tho two parties. There no reason why tho colored vote honlil be solidly Republican. Thero is every reason why it may become large ly Demoomtic. 1 number among my friends many ot tho most prominent Democrats of the elate, and their kind expressions towards our raco when harshness miuht havo been expected assures mo that among them are to ho found the true friends ot tho colored man. This Hill v sensation about lie jjroes being put back into slavery has, I am sorry to say, been spread among the colored people. Thoy now nnd that thoy havo been imposed on and they hnve already become thoroughly reconciled to the election of the Demo cratio ticket. It was first started ns a mere ioko. but was looked upon by tho more fearful in a serious light. vVe believo that tho administration of Gov ernor Cleveland will be a good ono. From Interview with ex-Oovenor rinchback, col- orca, uouecwr 01 rew uneans. The condition of tho colored people cannot be changed or affected in the least duereo by a men) chanco of ad ministration. I voted lor fllr.. Jilame, nnd there is no doubt that my personal interest and thu interest of many of my friends and acquaintances would have been best subserved by hU eleo tion. Nevertheless, in my opinion, the success of Governor Cleveland will do more to destroy raco preiudico than ten thousand civil rights bills. I think tho election of Mr. Cloveland will re snlt finally in n political revolution in tho south, which will completly do stroy tho color line. New parties will bo formed, composed of both races, in which each member will be equal. Vioe-Fieaideat Hendnoks, nr.

Hendricks, Mrs. Hendricks aud Colonel Bannister, of Indiana. Vice President Hendricks was met at the depot by Statu Chair man liensel. The vico president-elect looks very well, and is in the best of spirits. Ho is hoiioful of a brilliant, successful and popular domocraliu administration of tho Kovernment. ni says no una very satisfactory visit east nud a most agreeable journey to Albany anu pleas ant couterenco with air. Ulcvcinuu. it authorized Mr. Hunsel to deny most emphatically nud utHiunlitiudly tho ru ports printed in the Philadelphia JJrest And other uopuunoan newspapers oi a rupture or unpleasantness between him and Governor Cleveland. On tho contrary, ho said their relations, and intercourse wore entirely agreeable, and In thu highest degree Hiituiniitory to both. Ho added that he expeutud mis representation und Republican efforts to create Democratic dissensions, but they would not succeed. Colonel Hannistor who hadacomnaii iod Mr. Hendricks to Albany, confirm ed what he said of thu pleasant inter view with the Piosldent-eluct, and de nounced as ult- rly false all icporn in the contrary. One Good Effected by Blaine, Mr. Blaino has effected ono excep tionally good result by his reckless charge mado in his Augusta speech, that tho colored voteisoftho South "are deprived of free suffrage nnd their rights ns citizens nre scornfully tram pled under foot." It is not creditable to Mr. Blaine that he has mado thu truth clear to tho oountry by rock less falso accusation against tho South, but that is his misfortune, nnd thu good ho has effected will measurably bnlnnut his strange and frantiti error. Evidently Mr. Hlnine had forgotten for tho time that them nre ninny very Intelligent colored Republicans iu the South who nre honest nnd truthful, ami his wild attempt to distuib tho tran quility of the business nt tho North nnd tho harmony of the races of the South beonuso ho lms been defeated lor President, has called out some of the most intelligent and influential colored Republicans to assert tho truth nud put Mr. Blaino to shame. They not only know whereof they speak, but they have tho honesty and tho courage to sneak tho truth. The, most eminent and trusted color ed Republican leader of the South is Ex-Senator Bruce, of Mississippi, now Register of tho Treasury. Ho sprvod six years iu tho United Slates Senate, where ho commanded tho respect of all parties and sections by Ills ability and Ills fidelity to his laee. He is pro vnkud to plainness of speech by Mr. Blaino's falso accusations against the South, and he declares that "such ut terances nre demagogical in tho ex treme and wholly unwarranted." Ho adds, also, that "Blaine'ti charges of in timidation and violence at tho polls are absolute nnd unqualified falsehoods." Mr. W. A. Pledger, the colored chairman of tho Georgia Republican State Committee, nnswers Mr. Blaino by a published interview in which lie states that the colored vote of that State will be largely divided, am) that he can give no further suppoit to 1 10 Republicanism that Mr. Blaino repie- tentH. Instead of i!iiiiuliiinitiir it iiiu- I drauce to colored votets, he confes-ies the honesty of tho Southern vote and he deserts the party that seeks to grind tho colored people between the upper and nether millstones of sectional Btrife, by such inflammatory and false appeals ub Mr. Blaino has made to tho country to excuse his defeat. Another colored Republican leader well known and highly respected by all who know him in this city, h Wil liam Still, and he confronts Mr. Blaino's frantic fanning of the dying embers of sectional hatred with tho declaration that Democratic victory will bo likely to remove some of the present obstruc tions to the elevation of tho colored race in tho South. No complaint of hindered colored voters comes from the representative and trusted men of tho colored race who worked and vo ted for Mr. Blaine -, but as with one voice tbo intelligent and unbiased col ored men of the Sonth stamp Mr. Blaine's accusations ns demntiouical nud false. Hitherto the colored Republican leaders have had uo occasion to speak ut with emphasis on the subject of he ballot in the South ; but when a lefeated Presidential candidate at tempted to disturb tho peace of both sections by atrociously false charges ngaiust the South ho has effected 'the one good result of calling out thu rep resentative colored U-qmiilican to put the oouutry at rest by proving, as Air. Uruce has said, that Mr. limine s ut terances "were demagogical and whol ly unwarranted, and that "limine s charges of intimidation nnd violenco at thu polls are absolute and unquali fied falsehoods. It is at much cost to Mr. Blaine's reputation for truthfulness that ho has effected this good ; but the oountry will profit by it, aud Mr. Ulaino may bo forgiven. J-'hila. Times. Correspondence.

But there is not tho elii'litest obj-otion to calliiit; the attention of all who are in the least uneasy or uucrtain upon this subject to the Met that thu tillo of colored people to freedom and all the rights of citizenship cannot bo disturb ed except by a ehango in the Constitu tion which it would Do absolutely im possible to make.

I'nintiririiiA.NiiTimboi ti II women's and girls' ready made clothing were as sim ile a matter as men s ami )ovs'. we micrht iump right in to making it just as we make men's and boys', and cover the whole need of women and girls as we cover the whole need of men and boys. Each of these four branches of business has it peculiar!, ties. One by no means im plies any other of the four jMany a merchant deals in ladies' clothing and not girls'; in men's and not boys'. And men's and boys' is a very different business from wo men's and girls', The business of men's and boys' clothing had twenty years the start of women's and girls'. Men's began first, then boys'. The word cloth ing acquired the meaning men's clothing; by the utmost stretch it means no more now than men's and boys'. We are straining usage to make it cover women and girls; but that's the way language grows: first the need, then the Word; and the world wakes up to the need after the word is born. Men's and boys' clothing began small and crude. On ly the roughest work was done at first. It has taken a generation of men and three or four generations of boys for the phrase readymade clothing to outgrow the ill repute it got into by the rough work that was done under that phrase at first. It hasn't yet outgrown the reproach. Many a man is measured and pays double who might as well buy readymade. We measure and make ready made both ; and we've no in terest in worrying people out of their prejudices. They will work themselves out in time. Besides, some have got to be measured anyhow. Now we know all about men's and boys' clothing. We were fairly in at the start and hav'n't fallen behind very much in the past twenty years. We know what to nake, and how to make it, how to sell it, how to hold our trade, and how to widen it over the country far away. Women's and girls' cloth ing is not so much behind as different. It is behind. It'll always be behind, while fash ion touches little more than shape with men and boys, and leaves nothing untouch ed with women and girls. So long as the difference ex ists in the custom of the time, women's and girls' ready made clothing can never be made to cover the whole need of women and girls as men's and boys' clothing cover the whole need of men and boys. The aim is therc fote different : must be dif ferent ; and he will best suc ceed in dressing women and girls who recognizes the dif ference in demand. We mean to make grad ually clear how wide our scope in clothing is. and ? going to be. It isn't easy to be brief and clear about a matter having so many as pects and ramifications. Dressmaking both for women and girls is yet dis puted work between homes and stores The store is go ing tn have it in time, because store is going to beat home both in style and economy. There's a difference in homes There's a difference in stores. It is a saying that a woman in business can't afford to make her own clothing. It is already felt that she can not afford :o make her girls' clothing. Men's and boys' lias passed beyond dispute. It is going to be reognized that a woman, whose time is of any account ar all, can't af ford to do several things that now she expends her time upon. We are doing our part to make the clothing of the family a much easier matter. What we are doing is ready to bo looked at!
