THE WILMINGTON POST. JOSEPH C. ABBOTT, EDITOR. WILMINGTON. K. C Sunday Mobkik.g, Nov. 14, J i 80. .If we remember the surprise with which the announcement of Cabinets usually have fakeu the people, it will bo decided that there is nothing gained by making up a Cabinet . for Garfield. Jlayck toot everybody by surprise ex cept in case of Sherman. Graut as he entered his first terra nonplussed all the old .politicians and statesmen, by his nominations by Mich selections as Htttart and Boric. It is as much an 'art to cast the parts of a Cabinet as it is for a theatrical manager to cast the parts of a star company. Lincoln's first Cabinet was remarkable ia this respect. W.'ll. Seward and Salmon P. Chaso who were aspirants against him, and old Simon Cameron one ol the old guard. Gideon Wells surprised every body by the vigr with which he re called a vagraiitj navy and then man aged it, ami Montgomery Blair swung into the Cabinet column the Blair flag, uud Caleb Sui'th and Bates, came irom good following. Wc do not believe that Garfield will make a personal Cab iii tf, as overriding proprieties. It is doubtful il he summons unexpected J men. A cosmopolitan as he is himself, he will probably put out a Cabinet which does not represent cliques, or schemes, or is inconsistent with the broad scope' fbf realTlepubric,anism. As guessing at it, without having heard n, word ex calhsdra, we Would say that the next Cabinet would be likely to give satisfaction to the good sense and patriotism of the country to . the vast business i tile rests of the Nation as well as; to the belter aspirations of our ciyiliz-ition. For short it will not be a Cabinet of nobodies hue will lit the situation. M A nice mess has tur ncd up in regard to Barnaul's i pretended Chinese letter The fellow known as Slorey, a reputed, brolhcr-in-luw of the Lynn Matey, has made confession that he was crammed ifi Law rence, Mass , by a fellow named Clarke, billiard saloou keeper, and an other nitmed John Sanborn, a lawyer. They sent hi in to New York to testify to a lie. In New York Morey was quartered at the rcoiiis of the Demo cratic .National Committee. , Etery word in his testimony in the L'hilpcase iv.'i4 :i lip 11 lu li.'iil lnrn ilrillrd to tell it. Whcu lie returned to L iwreuce, after jiivii:;; testimony,1 he received from t lie National Democratic Committee, in a cluck on the National l'.irk Bank, which was cashed in Lynn. A police officer nauied Birminhani, in the role he was to play in regard to the Morey -letter. This is fine business, and one of the richnesses which clus tered around Barnum's headquarters. . Edwin Booth, in his appearance- in Hamlet in Princes Theatre in London seems to have coufused the English critics. The English have an actor named Irving whom they regard as a very extraordinary Hamlet. Of course aur glorious Booth's Hum let is quite dill'erent from that of any living actor. Forest was noisy and declamatory, and Fetchter affected the narrative style, Old Junius Brutus Booth, the father of Edwin, for a long time held a foremost place in London in all of bhakspeare'a plays, but he was loud and bold: Among all the noted Hamlet's of the last half century iw '0110 has equalled Edwin I Sooth in Hamlet as he understands the character..

' The article which is copied into the columns of the Post to-day from the National Republican, is not in any meas ure unreasoning. It protrudes boldly before the public a question which no body has htusfar said anything about, but which nearly everybody has been thinking about. What treatment the fraudulently elected persons like Chal mers of the so-called, shoestring dis trict, and many others are to receive at the hands of the next House of Repre sentatives, will very possibly take tan gible form in the broader question whe'her fraudulent majorities are here after to sit in our Congresses. There is the usual amount of rattle brained era tin ess in a letter which Sen-i ator Hill of Georgia has just written' to S. B. Chittenden, a defeated Kepub lican of New York. Among the para doxes and grotesque solecisms of. this wild production, are Mr. Hill's asser tions that there is to be a disruption of the states into seve-al monarchies, or the absolute, consolidation iuto one empire; his proposition to smash eter nally the northern Democratic and Re publican parties sp as to leaye the - 8011111"11 Boarbons, whom he is careful to have preserved intact, to pick up the dixjeci, membra and, make anew party; his proposition toTylerizj or Andrew Johusonize Garfield, and the sift-aaw-der with which he covers hiu; and with what sublime modesty he informs his friend Chittenden that,"neverthe1ess we. the solid south shall avert all revolu tion, not to win Republican praise, or to avoid Kepublican abuse for either is impossible but solely because it is right, and we are determined to pre serve the peace of the country. How long human nature can bear this I do not know. l kIt is injustice unparalleled, and wrong that ought: 4o cover the north with blushes." That ia, to have elected Garfield. But his last sentence is wonderful, and in Ben. Hill's own particular and personal line: "Gar field has no idea bow I feel toward him, and how anxiously I wish for his success, and I suppose if he tfiu know, he, like Mr. Hayes, would be afraid it would injure him with his party." Ben is the mad bull of, politics. A 1MOT NOT1CUD INCIDENT. In the Atlanta (Ga.) Republican ap pears a letter, dated "Charlotte, N. C, Oct, 2?," '80," and relating outrages, round -by the way of Atlanta, which we confess to have escaped our notices That our cynical Chariotte contempo raries should not haye furnished us the information, we are nqt surpiised, be cause no one of them do us- the honor to exchange with us. . This letter relates in substance, that on the day before "Governor of the stale, Mr. Jar via, addressed about 2o0 people in the afternoon," and that at "about 8 p. m. the crowd passed through the principal streets" consisting of "about two hundred mounted horse men," "duly prepared for; any emer gency," and "all stimulated bv that stimulaut peculiar to the Democracy of the solid south," many of them being red shirt riders, so stimulated that they could "with difficulty, keep the saddle Two companies of these were gentlemen from the town of Iancaster, South Car olina, "being of Wade Hampton's con stituency," and were in a "drunken frenzy," when Geo. J. M. Leach com menced a speech, to an audience a part of whom were colored people "behaving in a quiet nd orderly manner, and seemed to enjoy ihe occasion.'" v. It seems that a about tbi. time ' colored church were holding a festival in Central Hall, about one square from where the speakers stand w erected and "quite a number of fret jnim" in the street in front of it behaving them selves well enough. But this was, too exasperating to be endured by the' red shirtcd gentry. We give the exact language of tbeeorrrspoudcnt, viz; About a dozen of i he red shirts pro ceeded to look after the colored folks; the result was tha, a fight immediately commenced. They chose for their lirat victim a small boy about 1 1 years of age. One of the red shirts struck hiai. The boy immediately knocked the fel low down, and ran. pursued by the wbiie leaguers who were firing at him as he ran. The boy was caught bv a policeman; who in order to save him self from the pistol shots, w as compelled to relea him, ami fortunately the boy escaped without serious injury. The ball was now fairly opcoexL Putul shots were heard in all the streets, near the speakers stand. What became rf Gov. J.r;., t;r. Leap and Mtheleser 'tt i i tbu described; The ctcc'iog stoppcU. Gov. jarvi-s Mr.1 Leach a ad ihe lesser light of De mocracy took refuge in th Hotel ad joining, and abandoned the co!orirU folks to the tecder aierciea of the or ganised, wno were prepared fr the occasion. t Vhil Use PcKocratk digaitaiirt were rrgalUg lhemMrc xt U Central Hotel, the followlogeatertalBueMiwas Cotes oa for the cititrns ot Charkc, a ad it it also given ia the glowing Ua guage of the cocmpondeat: AU weaae4 to be armeU. iwral horxateo todo to where tho coUfd folki wtr holding their festival, stoat lajr f-je llaacock and swiogieg rutal, aa4 aooo cnaaatfoo4 firiaoo ik ec4 ocrd peofo aoartaUed ia troot of U bolSditg, who laaaaodiattiy acatteetst fee safety. Tao Halt was iUeJ aoUy with voatea aa4 chBdrra who aow seemed fo be completely at Ihe mercy of the red shirts. Several resolute men, among whom was the editor of the Charlotte- Obtorver, to his credit be it said, prevented them from obtaining access to the Hall, when they com menced firing through the windows. The front of the building chows where fully a dozen pistol ballsaimed at the defenceless negroes are lodged. ; Many of the occupants leaped from the baek windows to" the ground, and escaped. During this time, when a negro con Id be seen on the street be waa immediately attacked; several were quite severely bruised, b"t none dan gerously hurt. They ran and made good their escape. . -i " And all this went on in the charming city of Charlotte, and the outside world knew nothing about it, till it was pub lished to the inhabitants of the Capital of Georgia. Admitting the creditable conduct of the editor of tho Charlotte Observer and the Other resolute men who prevented the entrance of the red shirts into the Hall where the festival was, it is impossible to withhold from him further approval for keeping still about the.affair, on account of mortifi cation and disgust at that mounted Democracy. They were a part ol "the iesier lights" who did not run away, as the Governor and General Leach- did. The Republican itself proceeds to a column of comment, editorially, on this outrage, saying, after a few remarks on the "chivalry ot the Old North State," touch was the riot at Jonesboro, Ca milla, Union Springs, Darien, and tie outrageous massacre at Macon." Let the heathen rage in North Caro lina if they w ill, "but let Method ism or religion of some sort, reign in Georgia, and let the Governor Colquitt execute justice .and maintain peace." And further: Now let Deniocjats of tho decent stripe (such exist in all the southern states, although a hopeless minority single handed,) unite with the Repub- 111 wiiviiia, iiuun vnruuua, Ala bama and every southern state, and renuer such outrages impossible. Are the JonesVoro rulliiins to go srot free? We are at the commencement of a new deal, and if the Governor of Geor gia is what he says be is, he can main tain peace, ensure tranquility, prevent murder, give the people a free vote and fair count; if he does thisjhe will de serve well at the bands, jiot alone of the coloredwJlepubKcans Iwho seated hiiu where he is, but r.t t jie hands of the w-hite men of both parties who op posed him. " 1 fcrucli things as there a.re suggestive, as to the matter cf securing immigrants and capital for the south, and of the cause, of such other events as the recent "solid north," end the tornado which swept oyer that part of the country. A COOU MAYOlt. The Norfolk f.'cnlinel says that for the first lime since 18GS has that city en joyed the' luxury of a fair election. This the 'Sentinel say a is due to its Mayor Col. William Lamb. After citine the outrHgcs of other days, it says: Tuesday quiet reigned, every man having a clear right to vote, voted. The officers ot the law, the police, who have heretofore been used aa . the in strument to browbeat Republicans, preserved order and their proper places. Drunkenness was a rarity on the part of the electors, and whiskey was ban ished from the polls. The ballots were honestly counted and the returns will express the wish of the people. It is not our; custom to deal in lauda tions of any public cfHcer when he but performs ihe duties of his office, but the happy results above mentioned are in a great degree attributable to one individual, and we propose to give him his full mead of praise. That man was our Mayor William Lamb. We congratulate the ciiy upon a chief magistrate who,, in the place of his social circle and the precedents of his predecessors has accooipliahed this work, and we congratulate the Mayor upon the encomium found on the tongue of every good citizen "Well done thou gmd and Uithful servant."' Il seems that in Norfolk uuder Mayor Lamb "every man having a clear right to vote, voted." It was not a It was in Wilmington where more than a thousand voters were irrprived of the right of vetting in consequence of the inefficiency, or, what is thought by many to be the case, the deliberate de sign, in pursuance of concocted plana, to cheat the voter. But it cannot be expected that a party which would be guilty of devising and getting throuch the Ugislatnre, a charter so hideously infamous aa ihat of Wilmington, would not conspire to open cheating ar the polls 1 !!K OLTLOuK IN VlttUI.Mi.

It is significant, as throwing light; on Gen Mahohe's probable course in the Sen ate, that tie Day Hoot confidently say a: "They have now, or after March 4tht the political power of the National Ad ministration to help them on in the glorious work of reform and progress."

It is high time that tbte people of the United States should be taught that honest elections must precede the occupation of seats in the House of Representatives of this nation. They must learn that rascality of any sort or intimidation ' of any character cannot be recognized as stepping-stones to seats iu that; body We have had too much of that jiu the past for the credit of Congress and the weliare of the country. The three last Congresses have' presented marked in stances of the subverting of the. popu lar will and the character of the gov ernment by corrupt and illegal agencies. The political character of the House of Represeu t at i ves d u r i ng i hese Congresses and tbaKlif the present benatc has been changed from Republican to Demo cratic by a gross subversion i of the popular will iu the scutb. This thing has teen tolerated much longer than than the national well-being will jus tify. and it is Jc-igh lime that a remedy should be applied to this crying evil L t ihe next House, therefore, draw the line closely between rascality and honest elections and allow no member, no mutter from what btate'or district, to cctipy a seat under an eident de spoiling of any parly or people of their su (Tinge uuder any pretext whatever, Auy Representative who claims a scat in the House of Representatives under a certificate which clearly covers a sup pression of 'he popular voice by in titnidaliou or fraud cf any character which has tliiiped lL'e result, should be promptly excluded from a seat as a member, aud either the contestant should be seated or the ca;e should be referred back to the people; and this policy nhould be pursued until the legislative department of this govern ment shall be constituted of members who represent a majority of the people, that majority being ascertained under an election in which every voter is permitted to vote once and have his vote honestly counted. Iu the late election this issue was brought promi nently to the front and was pronounced upon by the popular judgment, aud the verdict as presented in the result is clear and decisive. The people demand and wili insist upon tree and honest elections, and they will not hold the next House of Repiesentatircs blame less it it does not inaugurate effective reforms in this regard and provide am pie safeguards against intimidation acd fraud in the future elections relating to this government.

Nation al ) Committee, No. 241 Fifth-ave. V New York, Nov. 8, 18S0. ) The Kepublican National Committee presents to the country a resume of the sweeping victory won by our party on luesday, November 2. which lias been so cheerfully accepted by all thought ful and patriotic men and by the great business and commercial- interests ol the nation. ' Garfield and Arthur have received 213 electoral voles, aud will be inau gurated President and VieerPresideul March 4, 1SSI. The actual' result in New Jersey, California and Nevada: is so close that it cannot be ascertained until the official count is made, but we have reason to believe lha! at least one and perhaps two of these states have given their electoral votes to our can didates. The popular majority for Garfield and Arthur wili not fall short of 520, 000 in the northern states. The ma- jority.of General Hancock in the north ern states Will hardly reach 1,800. If the Republicans of the south had been permitted to vote as they wished, and to "have their votes counted as they were cast," at least six of these states would have recordeel majorities ranging from fire to forty thousand for our. ticket. The majorities, therefore. claimed by our adversaries in most of the southern .stales we regard as uu worthy of consideration. We ha ve ca rried t he 'egislature of ever northern slate except Nevada, where a straight e ut Democrat will be elected to succeed Mr. Aharon. After the 4th of M?rch next, the Uuiud States Sen ate will stand H7 Republicans, 37 Dem ocrats, and 2 Independents. Two south ern states given to the Democrats in tho above estimate are yet lo elect Sen ators, and it is not unlikely that we Lsball secure one ot them. In the Lower Hou-e of Congress w e have not Jess thau 15 majority, rso officer of the present Congress can re duce or imperii this majority except by a revolutionary act. , Gai field and Arthur have been elec -ed by unparalleled popular majorities in that portion ot the country where the right of every citizen is recognized to vole as he pleases and have his ballot houtstly counted.
