The Oh io Idea. :* The News and: Courier seems determin ed uot to agree with Mr. Randall, no matter what that gentleman may do. When the Ohio Democrats iu their plat form declared for -tariff for revenue with Incidental protection for home industries, the Neys and Courier indorsed the doc trine, and said it was an admirable ex pression of Democratic sentiment on the subject of the tariff. Last week. Mr. Randall, who was stumping Ohio for the Democracy, made a speech at Cleveland iu which he said: '?The Ohio platform proclaims the .t.r.ue btisiuess policy of the tarirt*. and Various States have adopted it. The National Convention will adopt It. and ;he Democrats will elect a President on jt.? It will thus be seen tltat Mr. Randall also indorses this, "admirable expression; of Democratic sentiment on the subject of the tari?'," and wants the Democratic, .ttarty to fight it out on the Ohio idea noxt year. This speech put the News aiid Courier in a bad fix. It-either lia I to cease its war on Mr; Rntdal! or re pudiate its owu assertion, made a few weeks ago, aboaC the .Ohio'., platform. So rather than uV>Mr.'Randalljustice for. once, it cats it3 own words.-and now al ludes to what It termed a few weeks ago an ''admirable expression of Demo cratic sentiment on the subject of the -H^i?^^-as^the Ju^gHQg platform of the Ohio Democracy." It seems to us that jtbe Neies'and Courier ought to be above such litttle inconsistencies. It looks bad on the pTirtof our cotemporary. In a Tantrum. In answer to a petitiou from citizens pf Kershaw for the construction of a railroad In their County, Mr. John M. Robinson. President ot the Seaboard and Roanpke and the North Carolina Cen tral Railroads, says that there is no in ducement to build railroads m South Careiibarsihce the formation of the Rail -v^'oad Commission 'by the last Legislature, and,ttta*^Se~a6 one would never put any money in railroads in the State under the ;chcomslauces. This looks very much Uk.e a disposition to force the people to-do away with the Commission ^ aud leUhe Railroads do as thoy please. ~It must be remembered ? that Railroads ^ have things pretty well their own way and a little State supervision may be necessary to keep hi check tho tenden cies which arc natural to monopolies. Railroad men ought not to tetoutof ?orfsy as Mr. Robinson seems to have d'?ic. on account ofa little regulation and re6tr.'ctloD. The people have rights as well 09 the Railroads and the two should consult together calmly and with a view to a just' aud amicable adjustment of jlieir difiereuccs. There is uo use for either side to be hurt or get in the tan trums. The people don't wish to do the Railroad compauies any harm, and we have no doubt that if any regulations of ] the Commission are seen to work any hrujs^ieeto these corporations they will, fa due season, be modified, '"" The News and Courier wants to know jf our reply to the Columbia Register's assertion that no man could be elected from this district to Congress without the .warm support of Charleston is a threat. Our reply was that no man could be elected from the district either without the warm support of Oraugeburg Coun ty. To the News and Courier this may sound like a threat, but to us who have a vague idea that Orangeburg is a part of the First Congressional District, it sounds like a very appropriate reply to the Register's gratutious fling at Or angeburg and Lexington, when it volun teered the surperfiuous information that the district could not be carried without the warm support of Charleston. The Democracy of Orangeburg has always been true to the party in the past, and it will remain true in the future. Others may bolt because this or that thing is not done, but we will stick to the grand old Democracy, and support its candi "j?rftes'aidtii our whole soul. We hope this will satisfy our cotentporary that we arc no), in a thrcateuimr attitude, aud that, on the contrary, we are warm sup porters of that harmony iu the party, which is so essential to Democratic suc cess-in 1884. f _..._ The Greenville Mountaineer says : "The address of the Colored Conven tion at Louisville appears in another column, it contains much bosh; but it ''wiil do little harm. We would have preferred to have seen some steps made towards colonizing the race in some of the territories, where all the evils they complain of could have been brought within their ow n correction. Fred Doug lass, the loader of the Convention, might do some good in such a course.'' We agree thoroughly with our co teniporary in this matter. The colored people themselves ought to favor colo nization as a means of ridding them selves ot the grievances of which they complain. The Republicans loo ought to favor the scheme. It would be better Mhan to deprive the neuro of the suffrage which they are already broadly hiuting since, be has ceased to be a means of advancing their iuteri"?ts. ?: Senator Edtuuuds is reported to have ' said, iu declining a nomination for the ^ Presidency of the Genera! Episcopal jfj?uveution at Philadelphia, that lie v*'as .. not ';a candidate for President for tills or any other place at this or any other jtuie.'' As Senator Edmunds has been ; ^prominently mentioned in Republican ? Circles as their possible candidate next year for the 'Presidency, this little speech ; ? is signiGcah.t. The fact of tlve matter is, the Republicans don't expect to elect ithe President next time, except through Democrajtic blundering, and as the Dem crat _scems little likely, to commit tl e necessary biunders, Senator Edmonds declines in advance to lead the RepublL forlorn hope. Sensible man! Northen? Sincerity. Wa hare almost ceased to speak to the colored people upon political mat tecs, but we cannot refrain from bring ing to their attention a recent exhibition Of Northern sincerity in the-profession '?f love and esteem for the colored broth pr which ocejarred in Boston. Massa chusetts, B. F. Butler, tiie ^moernlie Governor of Massachusetts, nominated E. G. Walker, a colored man. to he. Judge of tiie Municipal Coun of C*oar> lestown District. The nomination came before the Executive Council of the Stale and was* rejected. Actions speak louder than words. The Xew England philau thropist* omrht to do at home what they recommend abroad. If they love the uegro So much in South Carohua add Want to see him elevated to office here, they ought to.love him better and ele vate him 'higher in their own Northern home. We like to see people practice what they preach. -...-? The.Ohio election. The election in Ohio, which took place >ast Tuesday, is very close, From the dispatches received we think Hoadly, tiie Democratic candidate for Governor 1 is elected by a small marjoritv. The Black Belt of Virginia. A correspondent of the New York Sun gives the following story of the hor rible condition of a County of Virginia under Mahone rule: "Mecklenburg county is in what is known as the Black Bett of Virginia, the negroes largely outnumbering ? the whites, and Mahone'sgreat strength is in this district. Siuce his advent tiie blacks have become so insolent and riotous that many whites speak of leaving the county. A letter from a man in Mecklenburg says ilmt a white woman, with a bedridden husband nod three small children, was cultivat ing a small tract of land. Near her lived a thriftless negro, who made a practice of pulling down her fence and turning in his hogs to feed on her crops. She complained in vain, and her insola ted position made her powerless. At length she got a dog and drove the hogs out. Thcrcupou the negro assaulted her. and, with foul epithets, threatened her with death. She applied to a lawyer, aud he ?.nid if giviug her vlOO would se cure the punishment Of the offending party for the wroiur aud insult he would cheerfully give it^ but that uufortuuately her skin was white and that of the. offen der black, and for that reason, he was compelled to advise quiet submission to the wrong, no white man or white wo-; man having, in his opinion, any practi .cai rights against a black man or black woman in the county of Mecklenburg. The letter says: 'Negro mobs have forcibly taken colored prisoners charged with crime from officers of the law. Whife men. officers of the law and con servators of the peace, have been treated with contempt aud stricken down by these mobs for no other offence than that of endeavoring to arrest their riot ous proceedings, and to assert in a proper manner the supremacy of the law.' Upon an application for bail re cently made for a white man, a negro Justice of the Pence, in announcing his decision, said: 'Send him to jail; he ought to be sent to hell.'" And yet there are those who want the Republican parly to get in power again, and are opposed to auy plan to colonize the negrjes by which such a state of things as narrated above may be preven ted. ? ?5 Southern Sentiment. It so happened lately that throe Unit ed States Senators from the Gulf States were in the city of New York. ? A repor ter of that Staunch Democratic joujnial, the -New York World, requested their views, on making the tariff, a leading issue iu 1384. The distmguiscd Demd" crats who were interviewed were Pugh, of Alabama. Jones, of Lousiana, and George, of Mississippi. Here is what they stated on the subject: Said Pugh: ??Alabama is solid against any further discussion of thi? tarid'ques tion" until after the election of 1884." Said George: "The tariff must be let severely alone until after we have elec ted a President. There is no need to be in a hurry. The people are discussiug this tariti* question for themselves, and wlien ?thev have made up their minds they will act," Said Jonas. ''The tariff must not be made tho main issue in the next cam paign. Otir enemies are extremely anx ious that it should be, but the Demo cratic party will surely be wise enough in its convention to keep It out. It will ruin us if it dominates iu the struggle." A Hero. Amid the struggle and strife for mon ey-getting, it is worth while to turn to a more ennobling and heroic picture, aud that presented by John Bull, the brave engineer on the New York, Pennsylva nia, and Ohio Railroad, who lost his life to save others, is worthy of imperishable renown. He could have saved his life in the collision which occurred, but with the heart of a hero, and the devotion of a true man entrusted with the lives of others, he stuck to his post and received injuries from which he died. Such acts dignify humanitv and save the race, from the sweeping charges of selfishness and Indifference. If ever man richly deserv ed to be held in grateful remembrance and to have a monument to record his worth, that man is the brave and uusel hsh engineer named above. He was the oldest engineer ou the road, and his heroic act will keep his memory green among his associates long alter his body shall have been resolved to its .Native clement. No More Arctic Nonsense. There was solid sense iu old Simon Cameron's saying that we should not know what to do with the North Pole if we had it. The only question now to auswer, is how to extricate Lieutenant Greeiy aud his meu from danger. -If nothing can begone to release them his winter, their fate is virtually sealed, though every effort should be made for their safety next Spring. But the next man that proposes an expedition to the North Pole, on any pretext whatever, ought co be kept on ice till the fever is taken out of him and theu committed to a lunatic asylum for life. One acre of the poorest laud between the St. Croix and the Rio Grande is worth to science and humanity that of all the Arctic zone yet undiscovered. A gang of convicts breaking stones in the public highway would render a better service to the pub lic than any exploring expedition that can be sent out to perish in Arctic ice bergs. Uniformity. The law requires the Slate Board of Examiners to adopt a "uniform scries" of text books for use in the public I schools. A short time ago. the Board did adopt a catalogue of text books, about as uuiform as a clown's costume. For instance, following the "series" adopted by the Board, one teacher may use Appleton's readers, another Mc GuOey's. another Reyuold's, and still another Swinton's. There is uniformity with a vengeance! II tliere is a public school teacher iu this State who could possibly adopt a less uniform "series" ol readers, we move that he be at onjc elevated to the State Chair of-stupidity ?or made a member of the State Board ; of Examiners. "Scries" docs not mean "Catalogue."? Kcwbtrry Htrald. The Lien Law.1 The Barnwell Sentinel s:\\s: "Quite a number of our State exchanges are at present' in favor of abolishing the Lieu Law. They are in a verv fair position to understand the many disadvantages under which it cause's both merchant and planter to labor, but we fear that it will never be abolished as our legislators are afraid to lend their votes against it as a majority, and thd consequence is, it is I allowed to remain on our statute books to work ruin among our people fpQP? year to year. The lioiflaw, ini'Jts'jefl'ep'ts, re: minds us of mean whitikpyj a man may embrace and wrestle 'with it. but Itis certain to slay him in the end. Let it go.

John Kelley says the entire New York State Democratic ticket will be elected by an overwhelming majority. David, A. Wells says ;mo hew cotton mills are being built in New England." They are being built in the South, that's the reason. A ^strike has taken place among the factory employees at Greenville. The laborer is worthy of his hire. Let him have his dues. " Fred Douglas and the Republicans are mutually accusing each other of iu gratitudc. Honors are easy. Both will be fooled in the long run. The Southern Christian Advocate, iu view of the coming circus, hopes that the preacher, who goes to see the animals, won't tarry with the clown. Miss Ileudci-son, of Dakota, is callod the "man kljykir.*M She has been engag ed to be married four times, and all her lovers have died before a Wedding took place. A Radical incendiary burnt down the barn and si-tbles of Daniel Mclver, a staunch colored Democrat in Cberaw, last week. Is this political intolerance never to cdase ? A Colorado crank went to Washing ton the other dav. for the purpose of crowning Arthur Kiug of the United States of America. A fine piece of sar casm. If viewed iu the right light. Mr. Sala says: "America may be. politically, a republic; but, socially and sentimentally; it is the women's King dom. From Cape Cod to the*Golden Gate the American woman is Queen." Last week, while a negro Republican by the name of Prescott was speaking at Radical meeting in Virginia, he was killed by a Mhhoiie heuehmau by the name of Gregory who was asking him questions, but did not like his replies. Take note that this was not the deed of a Democrat. The case of the Teague family in Greenville is a sad one. Six of the family have now died from typhoid fever since the 14th of July. It is now thought that the cause of the sickness is a damp base-5 meut in the house in which some of the sills and other woodwork have decayed. This should serve as a hint to every one to keep their premises dry, and well ventilated. A frightful affair occured. iu Natchi toc'.es Parish, La., last week. A crowd ot colored men quarreled in a saloon. A pitched battle with dirks ensued. James Stand slabbed Isaac Robinson and the latter bled to death. A sou of R ?binsou shot Stand dead. Ezra Rob inson shot and killed two others Be fore ihe melee was over six were dead and four fatally wounded. No arrests were made. 3 Mrs. Willianv-Whitney, of Henry county, Ga., never saw a railroad, never rode in a bugiry. never was iu a town, never was in but one store, never 3aw bat one cooking stove, has not been to .church since the war, and has not been a mile from home in lifteeu years. * She is over seventy-live years old, aud has been Jjjttntedjsixiv^ * lu>r:yhus band has. bought herouiy two dresses," and they were cotton. One of our exchanges well says: "A good many Democrats think that the general government should return the balance due to the swindled depositors of the Frecdmau's Saving Bank aud Trust Company. We vote against any such benefaction until the Government pays back to the Southern cotton grow ers the spventy millious of dollars, forci bly and unconstitutionally taken from them prior to 1868. A machine has been invented and set in operation iii North Carolina which rolls out several thousand cigarettes per iniuute. This will tend to cheapen cig arettes and iutensify the nuisance of cig arette smoke. Small boys will now be able to Indulge iu the pernicious habit of cigarette-smoking ad lib, and the aver age Dude will be able, by close attcntiou to business, to end his earthly career iu three years instead of six as hitherto. Lotta Crabtree, the actress, writes from Paris that she is still being pursued by Mr. Bolton Hulme. the crank, who insists that he is her husband. No w o man on the stage has been more annoy ed by self-appointed husbands than Lotta. Every season some crank tises up and claims that she is his lawful wife. Lotta should put a slop to this sort of thing by marrying some brawny fellow with Sullivau-like attributes and turning him loose upon the fools who are annoy ing her. Prof. II. Warner made a balloon as cension at Pittsburgh. When the bal loon reached 7.000 lect it collapsed Hth the mau still clinging to it and descended with fr>htful velocity. Suddenly the balloon uirued over and a parachute was formed. This checked its descent and the professor was deposited on a small frame dwelliug, from which be fell to a yard. He was Slightly bruised but much overcome by the escaped gas. The thrilling scene was witnessed by 10,000 people. An exchange says: "A number of negroes, say thirty or forty, are known to be held by the ludians in the Ever glades of Florida. They speak the Indian tomruc. wear the dress of Indian women and arc made to do the women's work. Those negroes are evidently the progeny of runaw ay slaves, who escap ed belorc or during the civil war. aud are still held iu slavery."
