tbe visit of the Jubilee pincers of the

j Ue lei Is a simple and touching story
Which we copy nearly as it is told:
!! was at General Garfield's home in
Mentor yesterday. The family,-with a
lew fricndii, were gathered in the parlor

drove Up, filled with colored nennln

Jicaua, and fiuding themselves, when in
rairunviHe, so near the home of the
Republican candidate, they came to
call upon him. goon they gathered
arouud the piano and began to sing the
peculiar pathetic religious songs of their
race those sad, weird melodies born
of oppressions which express the-long-iug
ol the slave for a liberty that was
only hoptd for in the Christian Heaven
of anollier. world. The little company
Of listeners was deeply moved by the
wunio, the melodious voices and the
eanitKl devotional expression of the
Hingprft. Wheu they were about to co
thtv turned towur.I npnrnl OitfioU

he I.'. id lift up His eounteiiance upon
rou, n.il tive vou peace." There was
ilenvf l.r h time as the music diod
way. 'I'lit it General iirRnA wlm
had HlKd by the mantel with bowed
head, spoke to the band of Bingers very
earnflly and solcmuly, saying:
My friends, for mv familr and mvsnlf

Now, Iriends. the earthly savior of

1 hope aim believe that your Voices are
heralding the great liberation which
education will bring to your lately-en
slaved brethren. You are fightine for
light and for the freedom it brings; and
in that contest I would rather be with
you ami defeated than against you and
victorious In the language of tuo
song you have just sung I say to you,

You enuiiot realize with what hope

how wo cliug to every word that you
utter, and especially to the sentiments
that you have just expressed, touching
the rights four people.
The correspondent add:
Mr. Louden had talked with rue the
evcuing be lore about the fears enter
tained by tho intelligent colored people
about the future of their race in this
country iu view of the reaction which
seemed to be sweeping away all the
safeguards thrown around their freedom
and political righla by the Republican
party. Something o this apprehension
louud expression in vbia response to
General Garfield. He spoke with evi
dent emotion. , No one present could
belli feeling that the great work of the
Republicau party for the emancipated
tlavca was not yet ended, or fail to
sviupathixe with their dread of having
their destiny committed to the party
which opposed every step taken to give
theru liberty aud cilitenehip.

was instrumental in iaving millions of
dollars to South Carolina durine the
Moses rcgim?. llo was at all times a
tuorn in tho ilauks bf Democratic and
Republican corruptidniats. He bocame

U. P. Lieslio. Although entered at the
Howard University in this city, bo
found time to go down to South Caro
lina and lift up his voice against rapa
cious Democratic and Renublicad
-
thieves. " The editor of the Washington
rost says he never heard of a Republi
can job in which Democrats were not.
connected, and I assort that that w as
eminently the caso in South Carolina.
Even Aleck McClnre of the Philadel
phia Times, went down to . South Caro
lina in 1S70, to engage in tho railroad
swindle, and after pocketing all the
money h could lay hauds on, returned
to his homo to heap rnrs upon the
South -Carolina" Uv-puUcah?, because
they objected to his taking crowbars to
prize open the vaults of the state treas
ury. McClure's visit to South Carolina
reminds one of the scriptural declara
tion, which says that "wbero the car
cass is, there will the eagles (buzzards)
be gathered together." f

cme to this city for protection. A re
gard A,r propriety and decency it seems
would impel the South Carolina Demo
cracy lo greatly repect7 him, and in
sure hira a fair election this &I1. They
Cm nut oppose him because of any
lark cf character or capacity, for on
tho scores he is the equal of any maa
in his Congrcsional District. If they
tu0 boxes with ttrvuehaJloU, and thoe
secure hi defeat, they may rest aWbred
that a Republican house will take ccf -sixicce
