The principal address of the ever follow.ng trenchant sentence: “Two dangers seem to me at this time to threaten the integrity of the union and the prosperity of the people. One of these is the gospel of foice, and the other the doctrine of pr« tection. The first is expected to hold the country whilst his fellow skins it; andto boththe republican party has commitied itself. I wish that it were otherwise. I wish that I could see in the republicanism of to-day some of the reflection of the spirit which animated a Garrison and inspired a Whittier,and brought forth in the authors of the auti- slavery moyement a modern and na- tive race of Paladins for a thousand years of song and story. I wish that the men who have succeeded Lincoln and Seward, Chase and Sum- ner, Fessenden, Trumbull and Grec- ly in command, possessed a little of their moderation and patriotism, When I seek for them I encounter in their places another and different set of leaders;I am chilled by the implacable hostility of a Sherman and a Hoar; I am amazed by the vindictive and sensational outcries of an Ingalls and a Chandler; I stand aghast before the shameless intrepidity of a Quay, and Iffind a" progress toward the light and warmth of truth completely blocked by the adventurous and unfeeling obesity of a Reed. They say that one-half the county is not able to govern itself, and that the other half needs a Chinese wall to save it from ruia. They say that the white people of ap entire section of the union are little better than savages, who love murder for mur- der’s sake, and that, next after the duty of subjecting these to federal supervision, the whole power of the government must be bent to sub- stantiating the theory that man may be enriched by taxation. They de- clare that the south is as disloyal as it ever was. In short, entrenched behind the ramparts of Mr. Reed's rules and Mr. Quay’s boodle, they demand at all hazards, and in the exclusive interest of the republican | party, a full poll and an exact count of the negro vote onthe south, and the establishment of Mr. McKinley's new-found theory of protection, asa fundamental principle and a fixed) policy. I deny that the southern states are less able to manage their own affairs less devoted to law and order, and less loyal to the union than the I deny that | they directly exempt from foreign @ansas City to St, Louis, | competition.

According to | these prophets of evl the average southerner is a cross between a feu- dal lord and a modern tough. On these premises and pretenses a se- ries of extraordinary schmes of re- lief, from Mr. Thaddeus Steven's original plan of reconstruction to Mr. Lodge’s recent bill for the regu- lation of federal election, have been formrlated aud proposed, and some of them enacted into laws. All this while the white people of the south have stood sometimes dazed, and sometimes amazed, and sometimes indignant, wondering at all times how the people of the north could find it in their minds and hearts to pursue a course so mistaken eud re lentless. On race problen Mr. Watterson said:“The advocates of extreme meas- ures present for ihe south a very strong and plausable case. They set forth the fact that the negro has the constituticaal right to vote, that this right is denied him.” He compar- ed the black man of Alabama with the black man of Boston and said there was as much difference in the intelligence of the two as between Frederick Douglas and “Topsy.” In those regions the negro had no con- ception of the meaning of a vote. If he could not sell it, it possessed no value to him. Left to himself he ceased to take any interest in politics a happy go lucky, kindly and doc”e creature. On the tariff the speaker said: ‘For years you have heen told that we are engaged in a dreadful con- spiracy to rob you of that lastsacred relic of the war; to destroy the ‘n- dustries of the north by eliminating the high tax feature of our Chinese reveaue system, and much stress has been laid upon the enormity of this. “TI can not see how the north can find anything to fear “1 reducing the war taxes to a peace footing.

A Young Virginia Student Loses b's Life ina Pugilistic Encounter Lexington, Va., Sept. 25.—This afternoon at the state military in- stitute Cadet Warren Taliaferro, a lad of 15 years and a member of one foremost families of the state, re siding in Norfolk, who had been in the institute only a week, lost his life as the result of a fisticuffencoun- ter with Cadet Frank McConnico, aged 20 years, of Bryan, Tex., who was also in his first year's atten- dance. Shortly before one o'clock the two young men engaged in a dispute. Former feeling between them made the dispute a warm one, and friends proposed that the matter be settled by a prize fight. At the call to mess the principals and friends excused themselves and repaired to a room, stripped to the waist and started the battle. Thirteen desperate rounds were fought. After the encounter young Tali-- ferro retired to his room and laid down and apparently went to s'eep. Two hours later, when some one at- tempted to awake him he was found to Le dead. Upon hearing of the death of his adversary, young McConnico at- tempted suicide but was prevented by his friends. He was arrested and placed in jail. The cadets are greatly excited and it is thought an attempt will be made to rescue Mc: Conuico. Ladies Have tried It.
