Vc would like to have every colored
citizsn in this city and section read tho
expressions of opinion of prominent
colored men in tho country, as pub
lished on the second page of this paper.
Ex-Senator Blanche K. Brace leads off
and he has the pluck to say of "Mr.
Blaine's statements at Aogasta, Me.,
relative to the colored people of the
South, that they are ."absolute and un

Ex-Secretary' Wjliiam M. Ev.arts has
contributed $50 to 'the Alexander H.
Stephens memorial fund, and has writ
ten a pleasant little letter to the eorr
mittee having the matter in charge in
which he pays he had th cooI fortune
to bo very agreeably acquainted with
Mr. Stephens, both when he was a
young Whig member of Congress and
during his latest years ia Washington.
Mr. John Kelly sent an equal sum and
with it he wrote: "I had the honor of
sitting in Congress with this gentleman
30 years ago, and always entertained
for him the highest regard. lie was a
noble example ot a statesman ; in fact
I never met a man who was so pure in
his intentions in public life."
The DemocratNorthern Demo
vat or Southern Democrat who would
now argne in favor of revoking the
elective franchise now held by the
negroes in ibe South, or even its re
striction by a property or educational
qualification, should be ranked as a
political suicide, along with the late
lamented James G.Blaine, of Maine
The South holds to-day the balance of
political power in this country and it
holds this balance through tht? right of
the negro to vote. Take away ihis
right and it will have forty-two less
Congressmen and forty-two less in the
Electoral College. A blind man must
see and recognize this fact, a fact that
is more potential to-day than it has
ever been before and a tact which must
eventually result to tho best benefit of
the colored race. The Democrats of
this country stand forward to-day as
the champion of the rights of the negro.
To maintain these rights means for
them continued political power while
with the Republicans the revocation of
the franchise meaus political resurrec
tion. The Democrats will fight to
maintain these rights and the Republi
cans wiil endeavor to destroy them.
This is the result ot the election of a
Democratic President.

The Criminal Court of New Hanover

and Solicitor B. R. Moore appearing in
behalf ot the State, convened in special
session at the Court House in this city
at 10 o'clock this morning, one week in
advance of the regular time so as not
to conflict with the Superior Court,
which meets on the first Monday in
December. The following comprise
the grand jury for the term: W. J.
Penny, Foreman; Thomas E. Mayer,

A Dishonest Girl.
Mr. E. W. Hewlett, city route agent
for the Review, has bad a colored girl
in bis employ as a nurse, but whom he
discharged a few days since. On Saturi
day night the girl came to his house and
nursed the baby while the family were
in the dining room at supper, and after
ealiag her own , supper, which was
freely given her, she left. Yesterday
Mrs. Hewlett found that a jersey bad
been stolen from ber and suspicion
pointed so directly to the discharged
nurse that Mr. Hewlett went in search
of her and found the garment upon her
person.
Dishonest servants have become al
together too common5 and are the
cause of much complaint, and aunoy
ance among our eitizens. It has been
suggested that when a girl applies "for
a position as a nurse, cook, or servant
of any kind, she should be asked where
she was last employed," so that . those
wishing to hire may ascertain tho char
acter of tha girl and why she left ber
last place of employment. If this rule
were generally adopted, serrantslof es
tablished dishonesty, would soon find
themselves without employment
