' '- IHMPrON ASSI1KKS TI1EM, 'vWe.have adverted heretofore . to the' f ears that prevailed - among - the colored people in the South as to the imaginary dangers that : threatened them since the election of Cleveland and Hnd ricks, fearg that were, en couraged and magnified by the utter ances ' of ) white leaders and black leaders, atnong whom, in some ec tipns.the preachers were conspicuous. ' The editorials, however,' of represent tative Democratic papers, and:the speeches of prominent representative Democrats have done jnuch to allay these groundless fears, and by this time the probabilities are that the great mass of colored people baye re-, gained their composure, and no longer tremble at the -dread of being ;re manded to slavery. - This feeling pre vailed to sucb an ,extent in South Carolina that Senator Hampton, in his speecl atr the ; qelebration " in Oolumbia last Saturday night, alluded to it thus: My distinguished colleague alluded to the talk about putting the colored people . back . into - slavery. Their preachers are telling them this. I tell the colored people of South Carolina and of the South, that' there is no more possibility of their being put back into slavery than there is ot you or L bent? put there, - The colored people, if they will think for them selves, will find that the constitution of the United States prohibits slavery lor all time to come, and I solemnly believe that a National Democratic triumph means a new emancipation for the colored people or the South. (Great applause.) I pledge myself for the Democratic party, and before my old constituents I say that if I believed the party would take from the colored people one political right I would leave it myself. (Great cheering.) I believe my ; colored friends will find m the coming years that the Democratic party of the South will be the best friend they ever had. I believe the minds of the colored people will be emancipated aa their bodies were twenty years ago. and .that they will realize thai their best friends on (iod s earth are the true men of the Democratic party. ; Senator Hampton here speaks not only for himself, but for the people of the South, who would not now, if they could,.without making a ripple upon the ' surface, see slavery re established. Democratic- supremacy means not slavery for the black man, it means his thorough emancipation. , HOW BL US E ACCOCATS FOR If. A staff correspondent of the Boston Journal interviewed Mr. Blaine last Saturday on the causes of his defeat. Mr i Blaine started out by informing the interviewer that hewas not very hungry for the Presidency, that he "lived too near it in 1881, and had a keen sense of its burdens, its embar rassments and its perils to be unduly anxious for the office." Perhaps he really sympathizes with Mr. Cleve land. He thinks, however, that if it hadn't. been for the independents, that offensive and indiscreet remark of the Rev. Mr. Burchard about rum, Romanism and rebellion, and the wet weather- on the day of election he would have carried New York, as he got thousands and thousands of votes from Irishmen who have heretofore voted the Democratic ticket,and from laboring men who believed wage would be reduced in consequence of the free trade ideas of the Democratic party , . He says, also, that the Gers mans stuck to him manfully, not withstanding the efforts to draw them away. St. John and ms promoition Followers, with the wet weather, was what really cooked; bis goose. Ib other words although it may seem paradoxical to say so, there was too much dryness and too much wetness, so to speak, simultaneously 5 - m j A large contractor- in the city of New York who employs a good many men says he' employs 300 men and that a little while before the election he was informed that they all intend ed to vote; for Blaine. The . gushing speech of the Rev. ; Mr. Burchard about "Rum, Romanism and Rebel lion" caused ' them to change their minds and they all voted .for Mr. Cleveland. . , , , - Blame's frienda very,wiaelv" re frained from ptiahing the fraud ple in New . York, for - the Democratic counsel were in a position to ; show that Blajne got at least 10,000 votes by virtue of a trade on local " offices, all whioh, under New York law,? were illegal and void.- The Bepublicans are magnarnmousC There are very few ; of those who abused and slandered Cleveland dur ing the campaign who ; would refuse to hofd office under him.
