Some southern. Democratic Senator,
whose name is not given, is very severe
on Ben Fill, lie says that llijl is af
flicted with a mental disorder, a pecu
liar form of mania known as "intellect
ual communicativeness.!' In speaking
of Hill's attitude the Senator says,
"What is the matter with lten Hill
that he should antagonize Uio conserv
ative eleuaeat of his party," said: "In
tellectual, communicativeness is his
trouble, lie has worked up a 'supply
of material in this case, and he is burn
ing with a desire to communicate to
the world the result. Ben II ill is a
man who would sink an empire for a
euphoriism, who; would wreck & world
to solve a dilemma. No earthly con
sideration -will check him in his desire
to make a" great speech in the Kellogg
case." , : "
SOM15 6V OUB POLITICS. ..j
Wilbiti a few ' weeks a material
-Lu. l.' ... - v-.iv.
Carolina politics. The success of Gov.
Jarvin in the railroad matter submitted
to the legislature and carried so unan
imously, goes very lar towards making
his nomination a certainty. "There, is
an clement among the Democrats which
. is dissatisfied, not to say disgusted, with
Jar vis, but it is too feeble to accomplish
anything. There is a ramor abroad
that ex .Senator Merrimon would'run
as an independent for Governor, with
a view of taking the solid vote of the
Republicans and enough of bolting
Democrats to beat Jarvis. But ire take
no stock in any such plau, for the rea
son that if it were practicable at all,
Mcrrimou has not pluck .or backbone
enough to do it. Neither has Fowle
nor any, one who has been spoken of in
that relation. We take it therefore as
a fixed thing that Jar via will be nomi
nated by the Democrats and will take
in his train these feeble-kneed gentle
men who have not pluck j enough to
make a bold tight. . I til
What is apparent iu Jarvis case is
not true of the controversy in this Con
gressional District. Major 0. )M Bted
mini and Col. Waddell had a close and
bitter light for the county delegation of
New Hanover. bteUman beat Waddell
by ;U votes in the aggregate wards and
townships, a majority so "small that it
really has almost no significance. And
yet Waddell having been technically
beaten in his own couuty, has issued a
card withdrawing from the couUst. On
the heels ot this card 'of Col. Waddell
appears a statement, regarding Judge,
McKoy, drawn witli great adroitness
Hud care, to the effect that I Judge
. McKoy is a caudidate for the nomina
lion against Mr. . Sled man j instead of
Col. Waddell. There is evidently a
serious attempt to defeat Steuman'a
nomination by dropping W addell and
taking up Mclvoy. Whatever may be
the remit of this movement tor McKoy
it is plain that this indicates a stronger
opposuiou looicuman among me lcra
ucrats of the District than had been
b -fore apprehended. :
We ta"ke the libertv to say that wo
consider Judge ;Mc Ivor, lhe nioro eb
jectionable as a candidate than' either
of the othtrs, -yet mentioned. Iu his
opinions as to the construction of the
powers of tho Constitution of the
United Mates, he stands out- on the
vuleraiost -frontier of the most ultra
theories of John C. Calhoun.. We re
gard him as totally uulit to represent
this population in Congress, on account
of tho extreme ultra opinions which ho
holds on the ewcr of the federal gov
eminent.. There is no doubt now what
is the law and the construction of it on
the questions relating to the supremacy
of the. national authority. The con
stitutional amendments audlhe statutes
' - 1 -r
enacted in pursuance thereot have been
approved and confirmed by the Supreme
Court, and are as iHcU as the eternal
hills. St-cessiou is crushed, and U
ould be bad policy as well as bad taste
if the people of thi District were; to
send .im.An of Judge McKoy ' opinious
to represent them in the national
vvuucila. I ;
, We may as well go further and state
th.it the ou'.hcru 1 Vmocrats ought in

JUDICIAL AFPOIMTMbRTS. r
We publish, with our entire appro
val, the editorial below, clipped from
the New York Tribune:
President Hayes would be iiNadvistd
if he heistated to appoint, for every
judicial office within the lormer slave
states which be is called upon te fill, a
man of unquestioned and unswerving
loyalty. There is nowjjut onle way in
which the results of the war j can be
maintained. The legislative branch of
the government is in tho hanrU r th
disloyal flhe power of the Executive is
crippled whenever Congress can cripple 5
u ; ana state governments in alt the
former slave states have been captured
by disloyalists. ! Protection lor tfce
rights of loyal citizens can be secured
in one way only : enforcement of red
eral laws can be secured: in one way
only, namely, by a strict regard for the
Constitution as amended, in all judicial
proceedings. But President Hayes can
not be ignorant of the manner in which
Democrats and Conservatives twist that
instrument to shield the worst misdeeds
of their worst followers. jThere has sot
been a massacre or a murder .which
able Democratic lawyers have not tried
to shield from , punishment by some
construction of law, nor has a single
federal law bees enacted ier the de
fence of citizens which eminent Demo
cratic lawyers have not pronounced un
constitutional. To appoint such men
to judicial positions, is to abandon the
last resource for defending the rights of
the loyal and asserting the rights of the
nation. I . " i '
In Kentucky, fur example, there are
several applicants for a vacant judge
ship. Some were rebels; some were
more or less loyal, but have . turned
Democrats ; and some have contrived
to so conduct themselves that they can
be represented as on either side or on
none. There is one person recommend
ed, ar d only one so far as we have learn'
ed, wpose record has been that of uu
questioned and unhesitating .loyalty
throughout, namely, the Hon. b. Mc-
Xee, member f the AAXIXth and
XLth J Congresses, who served in
the . union army, was held for
more than one year in. Libbv
Prison, and has borne himself honor
ably and loyally in every civil position
which be nas nlled. Pert a ps he may
not be the right man, but surely he
should not be set aside, only to make
room for men of questionable fidelity
to Iiepublicau principles llany sim
ilar instances might be given. What
ever toe President mav think it needful
to do, in order to secure the efficient
discharge of public duties in ether ca
pacities. he surely should not hesitate.
in selecting judges who are to interpret
tre Constitution and the- laws, to give
the preference in ! every case to men
whose fidelity to the Union caUse has
been tested and has Dever , wavered,
when such men can be found whose
qualifications for the bench are ade
quate. For the very essence of Democ
racy, or southern .''Conservatism' is
hostility to the supreme law of the hud
as it is. f
Kvery time such an ollice is to be
filled there is talk of conciliation. But
it is about time that the loyal men of
the south should be conciliated a little,
They have seen the nation, which they
stoutly defended in its time of trial,
abandon them to the mercy of its foes;
they have seen local governments
.wrested from them", sometimes by force
nuu sometimes oy irauu; iuey nave seen
such mjustice perpetrated year lifter
year, without punishment and almost
without rebuke, as would not be toler
ated by any other civilized government
toward any class of its subjects; they
have been scoffed at for years because
thty were foolish enough to stand ui
for a Union which does not stand up
for them; and they have learned that
it brings oulyloss and ignominy to have
defended the Union, but brings honor
and profit in all the old slave states to
have consorted with traitors. For these
men. there remains only one barrier of
defence against any wrung that the
vindictiveness of disloyalists may sue
eest, namely, a just Constitution, ami
just laws expounded by a loyal and
and fearless judiciary. It is high time
to show them that this their last defence
shall not be taken away on the pitifu
plea of conciliation lor traitors or neu
trals. ' i-
mtA3T makes o pkhiai.
It it no trival matter that On a recent
occasion, iu a public speech, Ceuera

so constantly reiterated against him.
that he sought to make himself Km-

or any lnumaiion matt1 u was nut true :
This would seem to he an admission
by silence that it is true !
,. 8uch precisely was the course pur
sued by lien, (irant in reference to the

At a meei ing of said Committee the
following resolutions and addresses were
adopted and ordered to be published :
liesolved, Ti at we feel a profound
interest in the approaching presiden
tial election, and in "iew of that inte
rest, we witntss with alarm the evident
mrpose of some of our friends to com
mit the party to the dangerous policy
of a third term nomination. We believe
that the precedent established by
Washington, aud patriotically adhered
to by his successors in office, is founded
upon the wisest considerations of pub
lic policy. j
We endorse the language of Mr. Jef
ferson when he said : "If some termi
nation to the services of the chief mag
istrate be not lixed by the constitution
or tup)lied by practice, his office nomi
nally for years will iu fact become for
life." y
The' resolution adopted in the state
convention by the Uepublican party of
Pennsylvania in 1S75J stiil receives our
most cordial approbation, tonvit:
"That we declare a firm aud unquali
fied adherence to the unwritten law of
the-repubiic, which wjisely, and under
the most venerable examples limits the
presidential service if any citizen to
two terms, ami in recognition of this
law wo are unalterably opposed to the
.1 ... .:. .: i J i
son for a third term."
Ve still adhere to the utclaration of
priucip'.e made iu iheameyear by the
Republicans of 'New jVork when they
announctd their "unaiterable opposi-
tion to the election y
a third terni,:' and we
any president for
cordially com
mend as worthy of acceptance the lie
pubticau platform of Oh i that the
observance of Washington's cxamplei
"will be iuthe future, as it has been in
the past, rcca'rded as a fundamental
rule iu the unwritten Saw of the repub
lie' ' 4
Wc siuccrely believe in the wisdom
and truth tf the ici-olution adopted
with great, unanimity; by the people's
representatives in Conressj assembled

iu popular judgmeut the authority of

too, can only be made iu'l forgetfulness
or in total disregard of the declared

TBXltEKDOUS IMMIQKATION.
The year 1SS0 promises to show the
argest emigration to this country from
Europe which has ever occurred in any
single year. During the j first j three
months of this year, ending March 31st,
the number of emigrants was 35,000, as
against 11,000 for the corresponding
period last year At this r ite of in
crease the influx pf people to this coun
try during the present year will; swell
up to the enormous numbe of more
than 500,000. It Is said aisA that the
geaeral character and quali ty jf the
emigrants is superior to former years
more young men of means and charac
ter. The averagjs amount of money
brought by the, emigrant is estimated
at $60 a head, or $32,400,000 for the
year for ihe whole volumej
It ia interesting to state the division
of nationalities composing the 31,075
emigrants who arrived here during the
first three months of the present year.
England sent 4,027, Scotland 1,003,
Wales 510, Ireland more than all the
three 7,143 making a total from
Great Britain ol 12,683. Germany sent
us y,o 0, or consiaeraoiy more man
Ireland. Hungary sent 1.377, md this
comprises the poorest part of the emi
gration. The other portions of Austria
sent 526; Sweden, 2,911; Norway, k2'J'.;
Denmark. 4o9 making a total tor the
Scandinavian! countries of 3,669. The
Netherlands sent to this countrv 556;
Switzerland, 1,436; Italy, 1,693, and
Russia, 701.
The emigration authorities are guii
lo notice that during the present year
the influx from Scandinavia promises
to be third on Oe list of nationalities,
for no better eBjrration ba ever; come
to the United 8&Ues than that from the
Scandinavian Countries. It j finds Irs
way nearly at tace to the western states.
(with the exception efithe itynale ser

usual multitude there were ou Monday
800 passengers by the jhtllic, which ar
rived on Sunday, who were unable to
take the westward traims-juntil Monday

TniS FAILURE P COLOKED,MEN
:-- j ! v.-' IN j BUSINESS. . ' : i. .
We hope to see tb e number of colored
business men increase a thousand per
cent!; within the! next two yers.- land
everything that we can d,to encourage I
thpm and to increase iht ir number shalll
be done. Wc publish below a short
article from the Jsurnal of Industry,
concerning some of the drawbacks j that
a colored man has to cope with but
they must pluck up courage and their
victory will be all the more g'orious:
It is such a common, thing: for white
men to fail iu business, that a failure
among them is scarcely noticed unless
it involves hundreds aud thousands:
but let a colored nun fail 10 muster up
assets enough to cover his liabilities,
which are bardiv ever over a hundred
dollars, and never, as a geueral thing,
over a thousand, nd everyone holds up
hands in holy horror td sees in; it a
natural deficiency on the part of j the
race tb succeed in the business world.
Oa ttre olliT hand let a colored man
be successful and the first remark that
ueot his own race-will make is: "Were
it not for Mr. A. or I ; he could not
keep 'up twenty-four hour." I
Aud acaiti. let a colored man deal
with another strictly according to busi
ness principles and the first thingjthe
latter thinks is that tire fonner is trying
to Hflim-ii his hoisevty or integrity
Thus it is, it matvers m i hat may be

ways looked u:on bv his ow n race with
an eye of suspi.-c'oii and-Ji.is to battle
against the current wnelher hesiuss or

This bciti ' the case and there being
nothing su s-uccessful as success, it 5s of

ly determination to ue that strength
in athletic contests count for anyiumg
in the world of to-day. The title ol
champion of the worll at any pub
lie game ;was one coveleu in the ear
lier centuries bv the beet men of the
day. and there ia ne reason whv, in the
busy, practical lite we lead in the nine
teenth century, wa should hesitate
to greet the new champion at an ath
letic game with "bravos" for the pluck
and endurance he has shown in uis trial
against dangerous competitors. If tho
greed and dishonesty of certain pro
lesstonals have Drougui suspicion upon
public athletic exhibitions" generally
yet we can certainly accept with'special
favor this last peuestrian cautesi ai
Madison Square Garden, hince its hon
or has been vouched for by men wh'ore
word is worty of credence.
Hart's fine performance of cGj milt
not alone places 'his record above that
of any yet niade.in a similar contest,
but it has . been' accomplished uder
peculiarly adverse circumstances.
Blower. Brown's 553 miles in six"days
has heretofore been the bet t authentic
record" iu "go as-you-pleaso" matches;
but, says one of the best authorities iu
England' on these matters, it was ac-
xouiplishi d both because the man was
thoroughly fit to do his work at the
outset ami because aud the import
ance of this second reason every man
experienced in these matters will ac
knowledge he was never pushed after
the first dav aud could choose his owd
gait and time. Nothing so worries and
wears upon a man in a long contest as
beiu? pushed, closely by a competitor
This was Hart's peculiar difficulty.- He
was persistently pushed by Dobler during
the severest portion ol Ins task and his
freshness throughout, even to the close,
shows clearly that he coulu re'adily
havc accomplished six hundred miles.
With an hour and a half to spare, he
raised the record twejve iuiles,-and this
alone proves that when ho aud Brown
aud Rowell meet a race of rare interest
will be had. These three nien staud
head and shouldcis, or rather arms and
leg, above ail others in the pedestrian
field today, and they w ill naturally
meet to settle the question of ludtvu
ual superiority. Rwwell's friends have
asserted that ho is ready to race Browu
fur four thousand pounds a side, or fur
a belt, or for an article allectiwhately
termed "love," more Kippropriately lln
this case defined as glory. Ihegrankl
record ot this American colored lad
will, however, change the supcrscrjp
tiou oi an envelope conveving any
challenge Roweil may feel inclined lo
send out. If be desires "tilorv" he
must race, not Brown, but Hart, the
present Loug "Distance Champion of
the World; not by crurtesy of th Ast
ley Bell, peihap, but by the belter
trophy the best record 'vet made here

Asthe author ard txecuUT el the
Resumption. Ad, John Sherman has
more title to the regards of his day and
generation than any one man; aud to
his credit be it said, it is uo unique
thing,to find him the champion of iv
greaCjrinciple. In the last, qtiaHcr of
a century ne nas been identified-with
nearly every great measure that has
brought his party success and renown,
nl he is, in our opinion, more entitled
to the name of statesman than auy Re
pnblicau iu active olilical life. Of the
three candieates mentioned for the

man is the one who can poll the largest
