not reserved or cautious. Hear him at
Brooklyn, New York, on Thursday night:

and wo accept the great responsibility
that will bring peace and good govern

"It was God that gave us power to set
this great lesson, a lesson that we must
abide by, a lesson that I hope the Repub
lican party will not scon forget, that the
great work commenced and carried out
by the people of the United States on the
4th of November, when the Democratic
party was once more placed iu power,
means nothing more or less than the gov

for the people !
"Oh, you will sec a very great change
after the 4th of March, when President
G rover Cleveland takes his seat at Wash

the laws shall receive their just and pro

They overlooked the fact that the whites

nine hundredths of the blacks were de

They overlooked the plainest lesson of
history, that education and property in
the long run always overcome whatev

munity can be iermanently ruled by its
lowest stratum ; that if the worst ele
ments of society are banded together,
the best element will also stand by each
other, and that the worst must go to
the wall or civilization will perish.
The solidity of the white men in the
South is an anomaly which only an an
omalous condition of things could have
produced. It has nothing to do with
latitude. Residence below Mason and
Dixon's line in itself has no more ten
dency to make intelligent men think
alike in politics than residence in the
North. The whites of the South di
vided into parties before the war, as the
whites of the North did. Since the war

The election of Blaine would have

that would have meant the continued

men while the negroes will learn from
experience the lesson which could not

liberty is as safe with one party as with
the other. Both races will then divide

The question quoted above and addressed
to the editor of the Enquirer, has been
asked thousand times iu the last week.
Ifc has been suggested, no doubt, by the
great popularity of the bird since the 4th
day of November. The question has been
answered before, but for the benefit of
those who do not understand the situa

Thia was intended as a taunt, and must
hare been felt, for a few more counties

and showed that the Democrats had won.
It was then that the rival editor hosited
at the head of his columns a magnificent

words, "We Crow."
It made a palpable hit. The passion

All nonsense! -The Whigs started the
crowing in 1840. We hud a log cabin
parade here in Salisbury on the 4th of
July that year, that stretched all the way

in the South-west eud of Main tre
down to the residence Miss Chrissy Beard
in the North east eud. Old uncle Aaron
Pinkstow, ? liwwan, rode iu u log cabin
in the procession on purpose to do the
crowing for the Rowan delegation, and he
did it splendidly. You must get back le
yond 1840 to find the beginning of party
crowing, otherwise we shall claim that it
originated here. Chapman's crow ing is a
well remembered incident of 1814, but he

astonishing conversion of office holders to
the doctrine of Civil Service reform,
which they interpret to mean that to the
victims belong the -spoils. According to
their Argument, Mr. Cleveland is the
great apostle of this doctrine, aud Ins
been elected by tlie independent repub
licans to carry it outv By this interpre
tation of Civil Service reform, many of
the rascals who left 'their Work during the
campaign aud stumped their States for
Blaine, or worked! lor him, circulating
scandalous lies about Cleveland, and ma
ny more who spent the time that belong
ed to the public service iu' writing men
dacious political letters for malignant re
publican journals, hope to be continued
in office. They are men whit have 'been
appointed by unscrupulous republican
leaders of the Blaine, Chandler, Dorscy
aud Dudley type, tor their efficiency 'in
this class of work, ami to continue them
iu office would be anie;;itioii ot Nov. 4th,
and a grotesque subversion of the prin
ciples of true civil service reform. These
men have stolen their salaries from the
public treasury, beoairse -t hey have given
their time and energy not to the 'public
service of the United States, their legit
imate, employer, bu4tothe private service
of the Republican organization, or to draw
it tiuer, they have been. drawing the peo
ple's money but vvoi kitty f r 1 hcnrselve.
Snipped ot all paraphrase, these men are
thieves t-h-4-c v4-s. To continue to
harbor them would be as monstrous as it
Christ had made deacons, elders and ves
trymen of the gamblers anil money chan
gers whom he scoiuigid from the Holy
Temple.
Some utterances , of Mr. Cleveland have
a strange aud lerrioje sound to the clerks
iu the Government, offices here. He has
said that clerks should be retained only
tim ing good behavhu", aud that his desire
was to manage the affairs of the country
tn business-like principles. He believes
they should be retained only for compe
tency and honesty, like the clerks in pri
vate business houses, ami also that they
should work just ashing and faith fully
as loose clerks do. 10 carry out these
ideas will produce a greater revolution iu
the Government offices her. than the par
tizatis of either party hope or tear. It
will result in the wholesale discharge of
ornamental drones aud idle siuecurists,
male and female, who come to office at
nine o'clock iu the morning and leave at
four iu the afternoon, but who actually
and truly do not average three hours of
legitimate work per day. It seems in
credible that clerks should be paid tit
the rate of from $1200 to $1800 per year
for this playing at work that I am half
afraid the reader will not believe me.
But I speak as an ex-clerk about which
1 know, and any candid Government
clerk here will tell you that 1 have been
more thru careful not to exaggerate.
The president elect has secured rooms
at Willa id's hotel, and will occupy them
about the first of March.
A large number of Democratic clubs
have secured rooms at the different ho

crowd that has been seen in Washington

Nkw YottK, Nov. 22. Hon. Thomas A.
Hendi icUs. Vi3e Preshteut-elect, left this
city this morning for Albany. A number
of gentlemen of tite Democratic national
committee accompanied him. among them
being Senators Gorman, Jones and Cant
den, and Chairman Barn nut, of the na
tional committee, Ge'u. Carey, of Ohio,
aud B. B. SmalVy. Mr. Hendticks is to
call upon Gov. Cleveland and return to
the city later in the day.
A large representation from Cleveland
ami Hendricks Clubs of difieivut mer
cantile exchanges went on the same train
to pay their respects to the Governor.
The object of the business men ingoing
to see the Governor is to tender, their
services as a body guard on the occasion
of his inauguration at Washington.
The Richmond Wnig, Billy Mahoue's
organ, sends the cheering information to
Mr. Blaine that he "may by President
yet." They mau get to making ice iu
hades, but a pretty big cooling will have
to take place first'. 76.
Cleveland's plurality in Virginia as
announced by the State canvassing board,
is 6,131.

John A. Logan will be (piite ready to
believe that misfortunes never come sing
ly. To hi in they have e. one quadrupled.
He has failed to get tho Vice Presidency,
has lost his Seuatorship, his sou has
beeu compelled Ut -rottgu from West
Point, and, to crown all. he will not get
the Ztini reservation.
This is a remarkable visitation of fate
within a single year. But the offenses
thus cruelly aud unexpectedly expiated
are not remote, or rather they have been
continuous for many years. General
Logan's bluutuess is recognized at its
full worth, and his good record as a sol
dier is much in his favor. For these he
has beeu well rewarded.
But his continued assaults upon the
English language were more than fate
could fairly be asked to overlook, li he
will settle down, even at his age, for a
year or two to the faithful study of the
spelling book, a simple grammar aud a
dictiouary of the tongue he has so long
abused, he may be able by the close of
