The WendeTl Phillips of The
Senate.
Senator Morgan's tediously elaborate
and verbose arguments in favor of sending
ont of the Southeast its most loyal and
prodactive citizens wearied the Senate
and did no good to the bad cause for which
it was delivered.
But Senator Moigan's speech and Sena
tor Butler's bill providing for the deporta
tion of colored people had the effect to call
ont from Senator Ingalls a speech on the
broad question of the relations between
with epigrammatic characterizations' 1
injustice, tvranny and violence of the
white man of the Southeast to the Negro
and that will travel further and faster and
make deeper impressions than any speech
that it is in the power of either Butler or
Morgan to make. The Senate Chamber
was packed because of the justifiable pre
vailing confidence that Mr. Ingalls would
riddle tho sophistries and expose the idio
cies of a wholesale scheme for removing
from the Southeast the loyal and law-abid
ing colored people, whose labor so long
supported them and their masters and
whose labor is still essential to the devel
opment of that region.
Wendell Phillips never in a single
speech fired at the Slaveocracy before the
war more or more deadly epigrams than
pierced the fallacies and false pretences of
slavery, than Mr. In gall * yesterday dis
charged at the monstrous doctrine ol
"white supremacy," in whose name and
behalf fraud, murder, violence and intimi
dation are used whenever needed to "keep
the Negro under."
"Practically," says Mr. Ingalls,
(I say it with shame and remorse), the
Negroes have been abandoned to their
fate. There are undoubtedly Borne thought
ful men in the South who apprehend com
ing events, and would willingly relinquish
the right to representation if the States
could he permitted to impose the race con
dition upon suffrage, llut this is impossi
ble. It would shock the sense of man
kind. The gods cannot recall their gifts.
Educationarqualifications and other qual
ifications would only postpone the crisis
It may be postponed for a generation, or
it may be precipitated in the next Presi
dential election; but I warn thoso who
are perpetrating these wrongs upon the
suffrage that the North and West and
Northwest will not consent to have their
institutions, their industr.es, their wealth
and their civilization changed, molified or
destroyed by a government resting upon
deliberate and habitual suppression of the
colored vote, or any other vote by force or
fraud. Sooner or later there would be a
collision between the races. The South is
standing upon a volcano. The South is
sitting upon the safety-valve. They are
breeding innumerable John Browns and
Nat Turners.
"Despotism," says Mr. Ingalis, "makes
Nihilists. Injustice is the great manufac
tory of dynamite. A man who is a thief
robs himself. An adulterer pollutes him
self. A murderer inflicts a deeper wound
on himself than that which slay* his vie
tim. The South, in imposing chains on
the African race, lays heavier manacles on
itself than those with which it burdens the
helpless slavo. And those who are deny
ing to American citizens the privileges of
freedom should remember that there is
nothing so unprofitable as injustice, and
that God is an unrelenting creditor. Si
lent it may be, tardy and slow it may be;
but inexorable and relentless. Behind tho
wrong doer stalks tho menacing speotor of
vengeance and retribution."
The Kansas Senator holds that there can
be but one solution of the race problem, viz:
that of justice, and that has not ye t been
tried. Nothing short of equal, exact justice,
protecting black and whito alike, can ena
ble tho two races to live and work togeth
er, under our free institutions, and to
maintain "the government of the people,
for the people and by the people."— .Unit

Tim Portuguese Government has been

A LIST of about fifty members f. r con

soon be sent to tho Senate by the Presi
ident. The entire number of supervisors
to be appointed is 175. The names are to
be sent to the Senate in installment, and
before the Ist of March it is expected that
all the supervisors will be at work. The
country has already been divided into con
en* districts by Superintendent Porter and
each supervisor will have charge of a dis
trict. They will have authority to appoint
tho enumerators, who are to take the cen
sus. The latter will constitute au army of
40,000 strong, and on the Ist of June will
bo distributed over the country. This
work will end in July,and in that time it is
expected that an enumerator will visit per
sousally each dwelling in the section of
the country or of the town aligned to l>i<
charge. They are required to call on
each family and each individual
living out of a family in any place of
abode, and ascertain in this way tho names
of the members of the family, their ages
and other facts as required by the law au
thorizing the taking of t_e la»t census.
Going for Brice.
Some of the leading Democratic papers
are criticising the selection of Brice as one
of the U. S. Senators for Ohio. The New
York irorld, the leading Democratic paper
denounces him, as does also ll<tr]>tr's
ir'eelly, which has lately been inclined to
favor that party. Here is what it says on
the subject:
The intention of tho Constitution in
creating the Senate was to provide a select
body of men which should servo as a de
liberative cheek upon the larger body of
Representatives, thn.3 securing ample con
sideration of all measures of national legis
lation. It was of course assumed that as
but two Senators were to bo chosen from
each State, they would be men of signal
distinction for public ability, experience,
and intelligence. Suc-h a man. for instance,
is Senator Sherman, of Ohio. lie is
essentially a public man. He has proved
his admirable capacity in high executive a
well as legislative office. Unhappily he
has been too intense a partisan, and has
vainly sought to gratify his ambition by
pandering to party spirit. But he is un
questionably one of the most eminent ot
public men now in active life.and an honor
to the State of which he is a Senator. No
intelligent American would deny that he
is tho kind of man of whom the framers ot
the Constitution supposed the Senate would
bo composed, and of whom his State ma)
be justly proud, whatever differences of
political opinion may exist among his con
stituents.
His State, however, has just given him a
singular colleague. It was fair to suppose
ilint ilr. Sherman's political opponent-.
desirous of elevating the prestige pf a
party long discredited, wonld select a col
league for Senator Sherman who by public
character, ability, and .-orvice like his, or
as nearly as might be. would have helped
the effort of patriotic Democrats to regain
for their party tho confidence of the
country. If Mr. Brice, the Senator select
ed by the Democrats, has any especial
qualification for the Senate, it has not been
made public. lie is a resident of New
York, and if Ohio preferred to select a
Senator from this city, it would seem that
there must bo some plain and decisive
reason for so unusual a course, which would
at once answer the wondering question
which the selection of Mr. Brice instantly
excites.
No such reason, however, has been
suggested. Vet it is the universal belief
that had ho boon a poor man. Democratic
Ohio would not have comu to New York to
take him for a Senator. In the same
papers in which his nomination by the
caucus was announced, it was stated that
the late Republican Governor of Massachu
setU, if he should wish to do so, might
contest successfully at the next election
the seat of one of her Representatives il
he would pay $50,000. There no hint
that his character, ability, and public scr
vice without $30,000 would be of any av;iil
in tbe contest for this public trust. It i
not by such facts that tho happy progres
of ]iopular institutions is illustrated or that
high anticipations are justified. The de
fence of the Ohio Democrats which is offer
ed by sensitive friends, and which consists
in the assertion that nobody can prove cor
ruption against the new Senator, is merely
art insult t<i liiin. Why is corruption men
tioned! Wa* it over charged in th - elec
tion of Sumner, <>f Fcstsendcn, of Chase, oi
Seward, of Thnnnanf Lot it bo concede.l
that the new Senator is a skilful partj
manager like Senator (Juay. Does any in
telligent man believe that it is even a sub
stantial party advantage to select such
Senators, instead of such as we have
named, or that an}' party can long main
tain itself by management of the addition,
division, and silcno t.iljijol?

AH showing the remarkable interest
ovineed by the Democracy throughout the

Democratic counties were not represent

There is something in tho air when the

THK commission appointed to revise the
road laws ot the State is now in session at
Harrisburg, and no similar body of recent
years has been charged with more impor
tant duties. IN addition to forming a
consistent and practicable road law which
shall be applicable in all parts of the
State, the commission will also consider
the advisability of tho State assisting in
the construction and maintenance of tin
principal thoroughfares. The most ililli
cult task before the commission will be
the forming of a law which will proridu
a practicable and easy mode of taxation
for road purposes and the adoption of a
system of roadway which shall bo within
the ability of the fanners of the State to
construct, and maintain.
THK first "kick" in the campaign for the
nomination for governor couies from Cam
bria county, and it is against tin; methods
used by Deluinattir's friends in securing
delegates to the State convention in 11i,-
favor. A dispatch from Johnstown, dated
last Tuesday, says:
Feeling runs high in Johnstown and at
Various other parts of tho county over the
proceedings. They insist that no official
call for the primaries or for the convention
was published; that, on the contrary, both
we.e conducted in the most score', manner,
with the purpose of preventing the friends
of the other candidates besides Senator
Delauiater from taking part.
A prominent business man of Johnstown
and an ardent friend of General Hastings,
was quoted to-day as making a statement
substantially as follows: He said there was
no publication of notice for the primaries;
that the Republican daily and weekly
paper of Johnstown, which ordinarily con
tains such notice, had no mention of it.
The plan pursued was to privately notify
tho Delauiater workers. On Saturday
night the delegates to tho eouvenlion at
Ehensburg wore appointed, and on Monday
morning they were hustled oIF to Kbens
burg on the o o'clock train. When they
returned Monday evening and told what
had been done, this gentleman -aid to one
of them:
"How could you vote for Senator Dela
mater, who never did any thing for the re
lief of otir people when they were over
whelmed with disaster last summer, and
pass by General Hastings, who did M> much
for uni"
The man attempted some sort of an ex
plauation, winding up by saying that In
expenses and those of the other delegates
to Kbensburg including railroad fare, were
paid, and that he was al-o given s."> The
name ot the delegate who made tliis a'-.-er

The World's Fair matter is in this fix:
Chicago's prospects have considerabl}' di

be very confident. As a clincher a bii
was reported in the Xew \ ork Legislature
appropriating .$10,000,000 lor the l air. It
was expected this would be put through on
the run. But it wasn't. Ten million of

at the disposal of Tammany in a Presiden

THE House Committee on Elections
have, by a strict party vote, decided to re
port iu favor of unseating Jackson, the
Democratic representative from West Vir
ginia, and declaring Smith, the Republi
can contestant, entitled to the seat. This
is "first blood" for the Republicans. Of
course there will bo a minority report, as
there always is, but Dalzell's presentation
of the majority report will quite likely
carry the House with him. They are six
teen other similar cases to dispose ot.

Our Goods are not marked
up to admit of making you a
present with each and every
purchase as some little dealers
do to try and catch trade.
There must be something
wrong with a business house
that has to ofler prizes and
gifts to induce customers to
buy Irom them; it does not
sound as though their business
was satisfactory to them.
The buyers of Hoots and
Shoes nowdays are as smart as
j some dealer.-, are; they fully
understand, and don't expect
Sl.--> worth of shoe leather lor
$ 1.00; all they want is full
value for their money,and buy
as cheaply as their neighbors
do at one straight price.
They don't want to buy a
shoe at $1.25 with a little
present thrown in worth ten
cents or less which they should
have paid $1 for, so you see
how it goes.
We don't give presents, but
do present you with more solid
leather for sl, and hotter
