WILMINGTON, N. C, LATEST MAILS. KAST AXD NO I TH. A Utile Bosh The Hoiitlieru .Po sition Mi represented. Xtr Yt.rk Herald, 19f7i, Wa$hinfjton Special. The leaders of each party are casting about for a policy for 1880, and its as to policies, and not concerning men, that they are consulting. Candidates will depend ori platforms, and neither party will have, it is well understood, a large latitude in se lecting its ticket. The Western Demo crats speak of Th.aqpmu - Eastern of P.outhern Democrats are for the present silentv bat all are united in de claring against Mr. Tilden, as utterly una vailable and out of the question. He had his chance and flung it away, they say, and he can have no farther pretensions. Ee Democratic dark horses are named, though one hears occasionally f Ob the Republican side General Grant undoubtedly looms up more and more. The President is reported to have said to a friend that Grant seemed to him most probable,' because the prominent rivals, Senators Blaine-and Conkling, would be able to defeat each other, and, he shrewdly added, the Republican politicians are not likely to risk a dark horse again, soon. THE EAST AND THE SOUTH. . The argument is that the East and the South united can control the convention in 1880 and carry a sound platform; that the nomination of an unexceptionable man, one -in whose character and principles the North would have confidence, ont good platform would give a better chance of carrying the country than any other way that offers, aud that, in fact, virtue may turn out to be more profitable than a mul titude of greenbacks. . Privately some of the Southern men acknowledge that they did not comprehend the real meaning of the greenback move ment until they found themselves part of it. then .hey discovered that the Green backers meant nothing less than repudia tion. "I," said oee of these men, ''did not mean repudiation, and the people generally have no such thought, and- when I dis covered what it really meant I drew out as quietly as I could and made up my mind to have no more to do with the Greenback leaders, but to help to get the country back to sound money as fast as possible, lor this thing is too dangerous to be trifled with." I.ESSOX OK THE FALL CANVASS. The experience of the fall canvass has lerefore given the Southern Democratic leaders cause for serious thought and for earnest consultation. What they will. fi nally agree on remains to be seen, but it is certainly -possible that they wil Usee that their true course is a close alliance with the Eastern wing of their party and the adoption of Eastern and not Western ideas and policies. TJ'is would include,- of course, an abandonment of all currency delusions, and opposition to every part of the currency programme of the "V est, with a union on new policies which would force the old questions out of the way. A Nameless Town. Wadesioro Herald. "Shoe Heel"' they persist in calling it. An act of the last Legislature changed it, on petition .of the citizens, to "Tilden" against the wish of ,the writer hereof. "Shoe Heel" is meaningless and forceless. "Tilden," if old man Sammy had had the nerve and .courage to stand up for his right, would have, been an improvement. But he didn't, and we see no reason why a prosperous and grbwing little city should be named for him Scotia, or Edinburgh, or Bannoekburn, or Ellerslie would do; but its proper and legitimate name is LOCHIEL (Loh-iel) and we are sur prised that those "Scotch" thereabouts could be' content with any other. We are right in this ; as any one inter ested can learn by referring to the intro ductory chapters of Walter Scott's "Fair Maid of Perth" or by askiug.that erudite and accomplished gentlemaa, Alex.

Washington,-- December 18 Congress has finally agreed to adjourn from Friday next till the 7th of January. This is a long recess for a shart session, but it is seldom that more routine business has been, or will be rather, accomplished in the usual three weeks preceding the re cess. Five of the regular appropriation bills will probably be passed by Friday night: the Geneva Award bill pending in he House will be debated to the full limit and the vote postponed till the second Tuesday in Jannary ; the Legislative, Ex ecutive and Judicial 'Appropriation bill will probably be reported and pass" the House before the recess. The disposition to press the necessary legislation is s"gen eral that all of the appropriation bills buL that relating to the army may be passed "by. February 1.

Thr Virginia Court Conflict. Philadelphia Timet. It cannot be said that .the light thrown upon the Virginia conflict of jurisdiction ' giTca a more sitisfactorr aspect to the ; position which is assumed by Jndge Hires. He pats himself and the" Courts of the ! United States in the attitude of insisting that colored men accused of crime hare the right to be tried by juries composed partly or entirely of men f color. Asa, matter of law, this might be pea to argu- -ment ; possibly we must admit that it Is fram the circumstance that a respectable : jurist takes his stand in its behalf, though. : General cleariy ii nauub iui uhjt buvu iew in eitner lue amendments to the Constitution or the ' provisions of the civil rights act. Hut as a matter of common sense the proposition ! is directly opposed to the very principle of the legislation by which the coUr line was sought to be abolished. Before the law the equality of each person is intended to stand and be maintained without regard to color, a negro who comes into court, comes as any other citizen, to Ik; doalt with as others are. His complexion is not in trial ; it is legally not known ; it ought not to be perceived. When, therefore. ; he rises to demand that-lie shall be tried before citizens of certain shades of color. whether he makes the demand upon the ! ground that his own color is of such shade or upon some other reasoning, he exactly j sets up that discrimination which it was the undoubted purpose of the civil rights act t wipe out. It may be added, too, ' that if he does this on the ground that on ly persons of his own color are his "peers," by whom, in theory of law, he has a right j to be tried, he draws a sharp and deep di j vision through the community ou precisely the line which, if the colored men are wise, they will desire to completely obliterate in every legal proceeding. Ihe immediate concern of the irinnia authorities is to ', take the most direetand appropriate meth-' od of restoring the jurisdictions of the j .State courts in the cases under dispute and it is satisfactory to observe that while I their investigation appears to have been calm, they present conclusions and ; advance saggestion3 without any ap-' parent purpose to aggravate the antag- ', onisms of the situation. It is purely a question to be settled by peaceable meth- r ods, and it is proper to note that the legal , remedies open to the counsel for the col- ored men were by no" means exhausted j when Judge Hives made his extraordinary swoop upon the State jurisdiction. If they ' thought the men were entitledto trial be fore a colored jury they could have aj pealed from the local court to the higher ! State courts, and finally to the Supreme ; Court of the United States. This road : was open to them without any interference '. from JHdge Rives, and if the proposition ; had any ground of legal plausibility for in a capital case what even seems to be a quibble is largely excusable it was the proper direction' for the whole subject to take. So far as Judge Rives' action is concerned it is too feebly sustained to qualify the regret . that the queston was raised at all. The conflict of the courts is unseemlv, the manner in which it was precipitated was ill-advised, and there is no justification of common sense for the proposition upon which it is founded. ! What might be in some cases a mere finesse as to criminal court usage becomes, under the peculiar circumstances which have attended the great change in the legal status of the colored people, an important question of principle, affecting seriously an almost indefinite range of subjects, legal and political. - Tlie Proposed Convention of Northern Men. Charlotte Observer. Mr Dumont informs The Observer that he has been agreeably surprised at the in terest which has been manifested by North ern settlers in the South in his plan to call a meeting of this class of citizens in North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia, to be held in Charlotte on the 19th of Janu ary, for the purpose of giving expression of their views as to the inducements which these States offer to emigrants, and more especially as to the treatment which North ern men receive at the South when they come as bona fide settlers. He states that he has received a number of letters in re ply to the circular recently published in The Observer, and tfaat the plan is uni versally commended. Many have signified their intention to be present at the meet ing. The railroad companies have shown a remarkable degree of liberality in the matter, some of them agreeing to pas3 del egates to the coavention free, and all con senting to offer reduced rates. Mr. l)u mont thinks that there will be at least seventy-five Northern men present, and to the weight of the testimony which they will bear he will propose to add that con tained in the letters of those who will be unable to come SEW ADVERTISEMENTS. .
