Albany, KY., Nov. 20 Qov. Cleveland was asked by an associ ated press reporter to-day if ho was aware of the delusion existing among the colored people of the South that a change in the admin istration would affect their condi tion, to which lie replied: “Yes, I have been astonished at the statement that there was apprehen sions existing among the colored people that in some way their rights, now secured to them under the laws and constitution of the U. 8. were in danger from tbo elec tion jjof a Democratic President. I am even told that some of them are led to suppose that the result of the recent election means that they may again be made slaves. All of this has appeared to me to bo eo absurd—and 1 have been so suro that tbe slightest intelligent reflec tion would dislodge such foolish fears—that 1 can hardly deem any notice of them necessary. But there is not the slightest objection to cal ling the attention of all who arc in the least uneasy or uncertain upon this subject to the fact that the title of tho colored people to freedom and all tho rights of citizenship can not be disturbed except by s change in the constitution, which it would be absolutely impossible to make. Besides tbo present con dition or status of these people has been so fully accepted by the en tire country, that no one should have the slightest idea that any at tempt will be made to change it if there was any possibility of tho ac complishing such a thing. So far as the new administration is related to this subject, the whole country can bo sure that the lawful power and jurisdiction of tho executive will ha so exercised that the rights of all citizens, white or black, un der the constltution and laws, will be preserved and protected, and all advantages to which they are entitled by reason of their citizen ship, will be secured to them. There need be no fear that either the democratic party, or its newly oppress or enslave any part of our population, nor to destroy the business interests of the country We hope, oh the other band, to do something to beneflt the people. It seems to me that 'one effort in that direction would, be aided, if mischievous croaking and dark imaginings should give place to an honest endeavor to inspire confi dence and to mako universal tho cheerful hope for the luture.” Ladies’ Fancy Goods; Trimmings I . : .

ELECTION COINCIDENCES. TMaffs - Itrangs mud fltriklag ud Keiths*- Itrlkltc esor Strange. Congressman Post, of Pennsyl vania, says a Washington speoisl of Nov. 17, who has been Scoretary of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, says there is a probability of tho committee retaining its present headquarters on F street throughout the coming winter. It has been found neces sary to have some place for. head quarters, sud tho present one is thought to bo the best. Speaking of the result of the election, he says Pennsylvania loses her vote in the electoral col lege for the first time, and so the old saying, “As goes Pennsylvania so goes tho Union,” no longer holds good. So also the fate of candidates for the Presidency whose names begin with C whq have heretofore been defeated, as in the days of Cass, Clay and Crawford. The Republican party began its successful career in Chi cago and ended it there, the can didates being in 1860 from Illinois and Maine and the reverse in 1884, which is sIbo a politiesl reverse to the grand old party. Mr. Lincoln came into office in 1861, and Mr. Lincoln’s son goes out of ofllco in 1885. Though it was cold water, ac- cording to Mr. Blaine, it was rain water which swamped him, and, finally, the Washington monument was begun by James E. Polk, a Democratic President, laying the corner stone. Work on thostruot- lire was resumed in 1877, when Mr. Tildcn ought to have been in the White House, and the celebra tion of its completion will bo on Feb. 22, eleven days after the o(IT- cial count, which declares Qrover Cleveland President elect. Never before in a Presidential campaign have there been so many striking coincidences, not forget ting the prediction which Mr. Blaine himself made of the defeat of his party before tbe Republican convention bad met, and who now, like many an old sinner, puts the responsibility on everybody and everything but himsolf. BLAINE’S BITTERNESS. Whit ll Tliought or It la WlIklBU- Wasiiinoton, Nov. 19.—There was much comment hero to-day in political and official circles re- garding Mr. Blaine’s last act of ringing the alarm bell in tbe night. Even bis followers are puzzled to account for bis lurid Augusta dis sected administration, proposes to C0,lr8<J ' Tbe more jnt.Hlg.nt ool ored people of tho District of Col umbia sneer at his theatrical pos ing as the friend of tho negroes of tbe South. They have never look ed upon Blaine with favor. Henry C. 0. Atwood, United States Con sul at San Domingo, who has been a prominent colored leader in Louisiana, is in tho city. Refer ring to Blaine’s spccoh, he said: It’s all bosh. Tbe statement that tho colored people in tbe South were not allowed to vote is not true. There It some intimida tion in'the country districts in tbe South, but very little in tho cities. Certainly Blaine baB no cause to complain. In tho Third Louisiana District be got 5,000 majority while Kellogg was defeated for Congress. Tbo colored people vote as they please. Look at' Bis- bee’s district in Florida, for in stance. Bisbcc is a Republican, but be was defeated by colored votes. No. Tbo South was not made solid by the Democrats this time. Blaine lost every Southern State because tho colored people are stalwarts and friends of Conk- ling, Grant and Arthur. Tho slaughter of Folgcr hurt Blaine as much in tbe South as it did in New York. Congressman Mitchell, of Con- nceticut, who is in town, says that Blaine should turn bis guns on some of tbe manufacturers of New England who forced their employ es to vote tho Republican ticket at the last election, even compelling them to show their tickets to tbe bosses just before depositing them. He says this aort of coercion was boldly resorted to in hla district. Last Friday morning the Messrs. Cowart, living 8 «r 9 miles north east of Reidville, started on a alow trail deer hunt. They soon jump ed an old buck, whieh they ran contfnuoaiy, with tbe exception of a few boors Friday night, till late Saturday evening. They patted through Reidville on their way home, hungry, tired, tom ud so deer. , FEN PORTRAIT OF CLEVELAND. Hla Appaaraaea, Hla Maaaar. Hla coBYsraatlaa mud Hla Baalaaaa Way, Watbingtan Capital. I (topped in Albany a few boura in order that I* might pay my r • speota to the Preeldent-eleot, and see for myself what manner of man this memorable campaign of 1884 baa crowned with the greatest of earthly honora. At 4 o'clock in the afternoon I found the Governor sitting in tbe vast and splendid Executive chamber in the new Capitol building. How many Eiuga or Emperore ever received their subjeots, I wonder, In snob a noble apartment as this in which tbe chief rulor of the Empire State meets bis fellow-citizens! The White House will seem to him very poor and oheap in comparison when he comes to occupy it. Per haps the contrast will be great enough to make him an earnest advocate of a new Executive man sion, or a rebuilt one at any : ' rate. That would be something to be thankful for ii it sboulddisppen. Tbe Governor site in a cane-teat- cd swivel chair before one of a number of large ted topped desks —the others belonging to hie sec retaries. Troop* of visitors, are constantly passing through the chamber; and those who care to do so walk up and pay him their respects. He asks no one to sit, but when there are ladle* In the party be rises and sbakea hands, and exchanges a tew pleasant word* with them. The Governor’s greeting ie a pleasant one, hot very simple, end with no excess of cordiality or manner. Hie voice which ooe notices instantly, has none of the suave and fascinating quality of Mr. Blaine’s. It i* not tbe voice of a man that has been used to magnetize or attraot.mea and women. It is not tbe voice of a man who asks favors of others, nor is it the voice of an orator Bat there is oritieism and empbaeii in it, and, while not a soft voiee, it la hard nor rough. The first impression one gets of Gov. Cleveland is i at he Is a yonng man. Thero ist bald place one sees afterward that goes well down on tbe back of bia bead, but the faee is the face of a man in the freshest health; a man full of life, who has never greatly abused him self nor overdrawn upon ht* vitali ty: Tall and atout he ie, it most be confessed, but not an obesemaa and while one would not expect him to prefer an active life, hit power or work must be enormous. He looks like a man who could work for 24 hoars . without reit and then begin a new day’* work, if need be, with more vigor than tbe averago man posteseei after a good nigbt’a sleep. In conversation the Governor ■peaks with a good deal of anima tion, and the strongest impreaaion one gets from him it of great firm ness and force in adhering to a course once it ia adopted. Ooe would aay “Here i* a man, surely, who caunet be driven, but wrbo will do the driving himself whenever it is necessary.” One might ask a S ood deal of such a mao, bnt to emand, I should think,. would be a losing business.
