1 :.- v CBA&JU JQ3EV Editor and Proprietor free tram the doting rap sthat fetter our : -viii ul- W free-bora reason." ff THURSDAY, MAY 1.1879.. COSfi R ESS 1KB TBI BESID5T. Iafonnatiou from Washington is vy meagre necessarily so-4as to .the Pro bable future action of the -DeDaocratio majority in Congress with reference to the appropriation bills. ,The news con veyed by our telegrams, upon this head is to the effect that joint caucus action upon the matters in controversy will be had at an early day, and that the politi cal features of the legislative bill, as well as some items of appropriations, will likely be amended by the Senate, without changing the general character of the bill. The probable course of the majority as to the army bill is not indi cated at all. It is unfair (o that majori ty, however, to even hint that is will re tire from its position, deliberately ,ta ken, upon this important question. 'Af -.ter.Hr, Blackburn's peroration: "He who dallies is a dastard, and he who doubts is damned," the ' party cannot, without forfeiting the respect of the country and its own self-respect as well, submit to the dictation of the President and turn aside from its purpose because it has encountered an obstacle. Hav ing put its hand to the plow it cannot look back. The situation is embarrass ing, it cannot be denied, but there is on Ty one way out of the difficulty and that is right straight ahead Just hejce Sen ator Vance's philosophy comes in : "The party that stops the wheels of govern ment is the party that stops them, and not some other party that does some thin seise." If Mr. Hayes declines to accept; the appropriations " which Cqn gresspflteirs hijn, it follows that Mr. -Hayes is the party who stops the wheels of government. This is the end of the whole matter; this the ground upon which Democratic action should be bas ed. THE SECRO EXOPl'F. -The exodus movement-is gathering fresh strength. To the arguments of such designing politicians and fanati cal South-haters as Senator Windoni, Ben Butler, Bob Ingersoll, Wm. Lloyd Garrison and John Whittier, the railroad emigration agents add highly colored ;ch jomos, representing the de lights or life in Kansas, where plenty reigns on every hand and the colored man has nothing to do except to gather his crop which appears tpfcrow without other labor than the seeding of it. Lis tening to the specious (arguments of their pretended f rienjfe, and gazing up on the captivating chromos which are presented to their astonished vision, the apprehensions of the credulous negro are soon overcome and he burns with desire to settle in the promised land of abundance and idleness. He sells out his few household gods and goods, sets out with his family, and draws up eventually at a railroad station or a steamboat landing, his money all spent for transportation, and shivers and starves among Btrangers upon whom he and his must depend for the means to keep them alive until they can get something to do or until Congress in its generosity makes provision for their support. Kansas is. overrun; there is nothing i for them to do, for Kansas needel no hired laborers when the in flux began, and the only hope for them is to return to their homes as best they can or depend for subsistence upon the cold chanty of ; the world. Their al leged friends may prate as they will of the fertility of Kansas's soil and tell their dupes that they only need to "tiQkJe its;bosom with a rake" to cause it "to5 blusV with plenteous harvests." This, ia but; little satisfaction to the man who is starving ahd who lias no rake nor money to buy one with, ahd the insufficiency of this consolation has already been realized by more than a few of the wretched negroes who have gone to a land that- they knew not of and find themselves without the means of maintaining themselves until they can get a start in their new homes. mis is where the cruelty of this movement comes in. About the only importance we attach to the exodus is as it affects the negro himself. As to its effects up6n Ufa radusfrial interests uj. mo ouuiu, iuese are not to be con sidered at all. Any serious inconve nience from a lack of labor, ow- xu& yu me xuigfauon oi ;tne DiacKfl, IS not to be apprehended; We would like to keep the negroes in the SoutW because th&r afid the cii derstancf each other arid can live ami- m i caoiy together,, and further than this, because it is the class of labor which Dest oi all other suits the South and to which the s South is best suited; but mere hasrarjv esr been an instance yet where'thefe'wast 'work to be done that there were not, people' to do it, and tne cas? or the South will ; not prove an exception to the rule. . 1 f The Jurors' Test-Oath.
