Miss Kate Field kept her promise to appear at the Providence opera house Monday iiigbt. The critics continue to admire her courage. Talk about the poetry of motion and sylphlike grace, but did you ever stand by and see n woman use a one tined fork to flop a stove cover cff7 In spite of the numerical preponderance of girl babies, a Washington man has gone and invented a cheap talking machine, which he hopes may in time become popular. The latest "sweet thing" from Paris In the way of headwear is the "baby hat," made In quite the infant style, with a soft crown and plenty of lace and colored bows. Mrs. M. W. Campbell, lately agent of the New England Woman's Suffrage Association, has been engaged by the Iowa State Woman's Society to lecture in that stats for a few w e6ks. Mrs. Plnchback says that when her husband does get into the Senate she .will test the equality of Washington society to its very core. She ia said to be an extremely dressy individual. "That clock, stranger," said a Michigan farmer, "was the best kind of a clock up to Rix months ago, when my daughter began to have beans, yid now the blamed thing is always two hours slow." Mrs Ogleeby, the wife of the Illinois senator, is so lovely that a correspondent is puziled to tell whether her beauty is in the large, dark eyes with their solt luster, or tto pretty mouth that i3 always smilicg. The New York Sun, having heard a rumoi that Bessie Turser bad been ordained a deaconess in Plymouth Church, predicts that if the same should ba true, a tremendous crowd will assemble to witness thelayiog on of hands.

"I'll grandmother you, you infernal scoundrel! I'll publish you from Dan to Beersheba!" It is this eort of thins, taken in the early stages of married lite, that tempts a man to quit home, and friends, and country, and seek the raging main, or gooff and become an Alaska fur-seal hunter. The husband ol Christine Nilsson says that one of the most painful phases of his wife's ailment is insomnia. Poor Caudle U9ed to say iust the same thing in reference to Mrs. C.'a trouble.and Innumerable husbands of our own acquaintance declare insomnia to be the very worst malady to which wives are subject. "Child, what beautiful teeth your mother has!" said a lady visitor at a Third ßtreet residence the other day, as the lady of the liouse stepped from the parlor. "Yetb, ma'am," answered the prattler, "But ma don'tlike 'em." "Don't like them? And why not?" inquired the visitor. "Becouth," said the out spoken child, "Ma sayths they're too expenthive. They drop out and break so eathy." The lady of the house returned just at this moment, and thought it was high time for children to be abed. When a"tall figure" lifts you out of bed at an early hour in the morning (the thermometer standing some eight or ten degrees below freezing point) don't yell, don't cry "fire!" don't call for the police, don't kick, or struggle, or scratch. All this would be undignified, and a well-bred person can't afford anything oT that kind. Your true course is to keep perfectly quiet, for there is no telling when you may be wanted to prove how deep and tranquil is the sleep of the innocent, and then you can go on the stand with a light heart and a comfortable conscience. Here is a highly pertinent leLter received by General Tracy: "Judge Evarts. Henry Ward Beecher'a counsel, city court-house, New York City: Judge, bow's things down there? Half of the women are in hysterics here 'cause they can't have all the Hlks and ribbons and things ; so they bawl and scream and howl and crazi their husbands, and growl and blow. All they think of is to outshine each other. No wonder women txe failing. D n a woman, anyhow. Yours, C. A. Post." This letter should be marked for identification and introduced in evidence. There is no question but that it is as pertinent to the issue as much that has been . offered.

BESSIE'S BIRTH.

WHO IS TUE WILLING WITNESS? YOUNG M'PERMOTT SEEKS TO CSBiVEL THK MTSTEKT THE STRANGE OIRI DISCOURAGES THE DISCOVERY OF HER PARENTAGE. The mystery of the birth of the willing witness in the trial of Tilton is yet unsolved The Tribune has the following concerning an attempt to establish her identity. One of the most interesting and remarkable ol the side incidents brought into view by the suit of Mr. Tilton against Mr. ueecaer is the life of the young woman known as Bessie Turner. IIr name end birth ate a mystery; for, while she is best known us Bessie Turner, she lias been called also Lizzie McDermott, and the best endeavors of her friends have not discovered which of those names rightfully belongs to her. The young lady herself Is able to arford only a slight clew to her parentage, as she only remembers that when very young ha was nlacod in an orphan asylum in Brooklyn, with two boys whom she understood to be her brothers. She recalls the fact. however, that she was called Lizzie McDermott at that time. A young man named William McDermott, who believes that in Mi Turner he has found a lost sister, tells a singular story. Twenty-two years ago, it is stated, the wife of Bartlett McDermott, of Sheffield, Mass., died, leaving two sons and a little daughter four years old. This daughter is supposed to be Bessie Turner. Soon after Mrs. McDermott'e death the children w6re placed la the orphan asvlum in Brooklyn, and the father did not visit them for a considerable time. Having married asain, he went to tho asylum to eocuro his children, but found that the boys had been bound out, and that the girl had been taken lor adoption by a family in New York. Mr. McDermott advertised for the children, be says, both at that time and a year later, in lSüö, but did not get upon the track of either the bovs or girl. It was not until a year or two after that Mr. McDermott heard anything from the missing children. The boys in the meantime had grown into manhood, and, when the rebellion broke out, they enlisted In the union army. Af:er the close of the war. the youngest. William, went to Orange county, in this state, and the other, James, went to Bridgeport, Conn. Both were naturally desirous of finding their kinsfolk, and William McDermott, hearing of a family with his name in Sheffield. Mass.. wrote to one of its members. Bartlett McDermott, meanwhile, had moved to Lee. in Massachusetts, and the person to whom youne McDermott wrote proved to be his own uncle, and it was cot therefore long before the young man FOUND HIS FATHER. But, despite the most thorough search, William McDermott was unable to find the sister with whom he had been placed in the asylum in Brooklyn. The Beecher-Tilton scandal brought Miss Turner's name into some notoriety, and the fact that the young lady was also known as Lizzie McDermott was made public in one of Mr. Tilton's statements. This single leaf in Miss Turner's hisiory came under the notice of William "McDermott, who wa then, and is now, residing at Long Branch, N. J. He caught at this clew, aud renewed the search for his sister, which he bal almost hopelessly abandoned. Bessie Turner proved to be the Lizzie McDermott of fcis childhood, tut an unexpected obstacle stood in the way of a clear identification of the young woman as bis sister. A Mrs. Funke, now a widow, was formerly the wife of Capt. Turner, from whom she was divorced, and she claims now and has claimed for many years that Miss Turner is her daughter. Mrs. Funke says that, when the young fronun was a mere babe, on account of family troubles, the inlant was placed in the care of Mrs. McDermott. When Mrs. McDermott died, as before stated, the child was pat into the orphan asylum, and about tho events of Miss Turner's history that follows there is no dispute. She was ta'ken from the asylum into the family of a New York gentleman, but her home was changed several times, and s ho finally found her way into the family of Mr. Tilton, with wnom she remained fourteen or fifteen years. During this time she occasionaly beard from her supposed father, Capt. Turner, who is now employed in New York, and also from Mrs. Funko, who claims to be her mother. At present the matter still has a mystery about it, and, although William McDermott is endeavoring to clear away the cloud, and the friends of Miss Turner (or McDermott) are assisting him by all means in their power, there seems yet no dear way to establish the true pireotage of the girl beyond a doubt. The Brooklyn Argus adds the followirs facts: Mr. William McDermott, B?ps:e Turner's youngest brother, is making every effort in his power to ACCUMULATE EVIDENCE PROVISO THE IDENTITY of Bessie Turneror Mary Ann McDermott. Yesterday he called on Mrs. Pike, the lady who, with Mr. Holt, removed the children from Kelsey's alley to the orphan asylum. The young man remembered some of the particulars of the removal, and Mrs. Pike bad no hesitation in declaring that he was one of the children taken to the esylum, William has received a number ol letters throwing light on the girl's history. One of his relatives referred him to a cab driver in New York City, named John Fagan. William found Fagan, and the latter remembered the particulars of the removal of the children, and explained how Mr. McDermott came to him to advise as to the propriety of permitting the children to be removed to the asylum. Last evening, William met his Bister on Hicks street. He approached her and accosted her kindly: "Good evening, Bessie." Bessie made no reply. "I think this is rather bard," continued William. I feel certain that we are related. It seems to me that you "ought to recognize me." The girl made no reply, and did not appear to pay any attention to him. William walked by her side until they reached Fulton streel, where Bessie took a Green and Oates avenue car. The brother took a seat by her 6ida, and akrd her to read a letter which he had received containing frfsh proof of their relationship, but the girl firmly refused to receive this letter. Bessie was on her way to the house of Mr. Manchester on Adefpht street, where she is now living. She lett the car at Adelphi street, accompanied by her brother. William made another attempt to engage her in conversation, but Bessie became indignant and said: "If you persist in folio wins me, I shall have some one to protect me." William said: " Under the circumstances, Bessie, it seems to me you ougbt to treat me more civilly." "No! no!" returned Bessie, as she quickened her race and lelt her brother. The reporter asked Mr. McDermott, you say that when you first found your sister, a couplo of montbs ago, she appearod to be friendly to you. How do you account for the change in her dapoitinent? Mr. McDermott answered "I can only account for it on the supposition that some of her friends are prejudiced agaicst me Perhaps thy are suspicions; they may think I am t spy and am endeavoring to ascertain the character of her evidence. At any rate, I think they have poisoned her mind aga'nat me. But I shall do all I can to bring my sister Ground. Perhaps she m3y see f ither, and thatmiy aff?ct her." j& Liverpool, England, has a surplus fund of $19,000 left from the sum collected for the sufferers by V19 Chicago fire.

STTETlinAS OX THE SITUATION wn AT HE KNOWS OF TUB GROUNDS BO MCCR COV ETED MIO HTT INTERESTING BEADING. Chicago, Ills., March 2ö. Lieut.-Gen. Sheridan has written tho iollowing highly Interesting letter concerning the Black Hills country. It sets forth what has beea done and what the government proposes to do in the matter, and immediately concerns all who contemplate going into that country lor gold: Headqrs Military Div. of the Missouri, CniCAOO, March 25, 1S75. Gen. V. T. Sherman, Headquarters of the Army, t, Louis, mo. General: In reply to your question what do you know of the Black 11 ills 7 l re snectlully submit the following remarks: My first knowledge of the Black Hills was derived from an interview with the late Father DeSmet, the noted Catholic missionary, whom I met many years ago on the Columbia river. In OregoD, from whom heard an Indlau romance of tbe mountains of gold in tbe Black Hill?, and his explan ation of that extraordinary and d-lusive Rtory of Indians, frontiersmen and explorers, The Black Hills countrv is much more ex tensive than that particular locality broucht to the notice of the public by recent explorations of Gen. Custer, and sets its name from tho black, scrubby character of the timber which crows on the sides and tops of tne mountains and hills. It comprises the whole ol the country bounded on the east bv longitude 102 de erees. on the south by the Sweetwater and Laramie rivers, on the west by Big Horn and Wind rivers, and on the north by the Yellowstone river. This is really the coun trv of Plack Hills, but embraced In It are several localities called Black HiUs, fjr in stance, Black Hills of Liramie, Black Hills of Powder river, and Clack Hills of Choy enne river. the latter being in the locality where Gsn. Castor made his reconnoissance last sum mer, and about which ttiere is so much speculation at the present time, and within the bounds or which it is supposed by large number of people GOLD IS TO BE F0TJXD. Father DeSmet main'ains that he was told the gold story while living with the Sionx Indians. He was shown by thorn nuggets of gold which they informed him had been obtaiaed at different points in the Black Hills, supposed to be from the bodä of Big Horn, Hose Bud and Powder rivers, and from the branches of Tongue river, and on hw representing that 6uch yellow metal was of great value they told him they knew where thero was amount ain of it. Subsequent investigation, however, proved that the Indian mountain of gold was nothing more than a formation of yellow mica, such as I may be found in a number of places in and above the described country. I had scarcely given the story a thought after this until about three years sgo, when I happened to be in New York, and it was theio brought to my recollection by a prominent Gentleman, who asked me where Father DeSmet was to be found, ami insisted that some one sbould be sent at onca to get from him the secret of the gold mountain, which would pay the national debt, etc. After I had informed him that it was THE OLD AND EXPLODED STORY his ardor cooled, and the excitement about the. mountain of gold again subsided. It so happened, however, that the Black Hilla country was embraced in my military command, and two years ago it became apparent to me that a military post in tbe Black Hills of the Cheyenne would soon be come necessary for the proper protection of ot the settlements in Nebraska from raids ot the Sioux warriors, who always, before they commenced depredations on the frontier, secured a safe place for their families and villages in the locality mentioned. B3lieving that these Indians would never make war on our settlements as long as we could threaten their families and villages in this remote locality, abounding in game and all that goes to make Indian lifd comfortable, and with this purely military object in view, the order was -given for Custer's reconnoissance. The discovery of particles of gold, by washing near Harney's Peak, on the eastero slope of the Black Hills of Cheyenne followed, and brought to the surface Father DeSmet's story for the third time. The Black Hills of Cheyenne, described by Gen. Custer, are situated between the Dörth and south fjrks of that river, one of which is known as Belle Fourche, tbe other the South Bank, and although I have the utmost confidence In the statements of den. Custer and Gen Forsythe, of my stalf, that gold was found near Harney's Peak, I may tafely say there has not been any fair tet made to determine the existence cf gold in large quantities. There is not a territory in tbe West where gold does not exist, but in many of them the quantity is limited to tbe color, which is as much as has yet been obtained at Harney's Peak. Geological specimens brought back by the Custer expedition are NOT FAVORABLE INDICATIONS of the existence of gold in great quantities, still it may be there, but es the treaty ol 18G0, duly ratified, virtually deeds this portion of the Black Hills to the Sioux Indians, there is no alternative but to keep nut trespassers. But to go back to tbe Fa'hsr DeSmet information, there is not much doubt of the correctness of hia statement that gold exists in large quantities in tbe Black Hills, but much farther west tban the Black Hi'.lsof Cheyenne. I have seen nuggets Irom Big Horn and Tongue rivers, ana many specimens from near Ft. Statnbugh In the upperWind river country.wheie raining hai failed for want of water for alluvial washing, and from tbe hostilities of tbe Indians, and 1 have a good reason to believe, in fact it is qsite certain, that gold exists in the Owl Creek Mountains In the lower Wind river and In tbe head waters cf Powder river and tho ltosebud,all the localities being under general meaniug, in the Black Hills and outside the Sherman, Augur and Terry treaty of 1869, except so far as privilege to hunt game. It has been my intention to communicate much inform

ation this coming summer to the govern

ment on the above described conntry.and as the Indians have no absolute rieht to the soil there may be but little difflcuPyln extinguishing their hunting privileges. I purpose, i you ao not oDiect, to open up the Yellow stone river by sending Gen. Geo. A.Forsythe and Col. Grant of my staff up the Yellowstone to the mouth of B'g Horn as sooa as the Ice breaks, which will give the lowest tide water, having already uecured a steam boat to make the exploration. If Gen. Forsythe is successful I will send Gen. Custer with a command from Fort Lincoln across bo mouth of Powder river, thenca np on tbe south bank of the Yellowstone, crossing Powder river. Tongue river, iineebud river and on to the mouth ot tte Big Horn river. This country U a? yet entirely unexplored; and the expedition may develop a vt-ry valuable auriferous section, and make tbe Father DeSmet t torv to some extent trne, but I am of the belief that the MOUNTAIN OF MICA has cot changed to gold. I will also send an expedition down the Wind river, through the Owl Creek Mountains, from Fort Stambaugh via Fort Brown.to lh9 mouth of the Big Horn river, and will bring it back through the parks about the head of Powder river, visited by Capt. Mills and hia command last summer. These parks are for beauty fully equal to those so graphically described by Gen. Custer as existing in the Black Hills oi Cheyenne. I may also say from my owu knowledge that the valleys of the Big and Little Popoagie, Little Wind river and main Wind river can scarcely be excelled in beauty and fertility, while tbe student of nature will find there the most extraordinary upheavals ot earth crust probably to be lound on this continent. I am of the opinion that this country is gold bearing, but of its abundance there can only be conjcture at present. I feel quite confidant of our ability to prevent intended trespasses on tbe rights of the Indians, and cavalry and infantry In the department of Dakota are being moved at the present time to tho most available points to carry out my directions of September 3.1 of last year. Were it not for tbe?o precautions on tbe part ot the government there might be a repetition of tbe California GOLD BEACH AND OOLD LAKE HUMBUGS with still greater sufferings, as many of the persons now crazy to go to the Black Hills never think of how they are to exist after they get there, or how they could return in case of iailure. If they will wait for further information from the government, which now seems to ba desirous of making concessions to moet these new interests, there will be no one more wiping than myself to aid in ascertaining tbeir value. So far as troop re concerned I will promise activity, for the present emergency and conscientious performance of duty, thould points from which'mlners start be so remote as to make it impossible for our scanty lorce to watch them. Wecan occupy tbe two or three gaps in the Black Hills and effectually exclude trespasserf. Very respectfully, Signed: P. H. Sheridan, Lieu I. Gen. Commanding. COUP DE JARNAC. THE LAST ONE BY THE FRENCH AMBASSADOR AT THE COURT OF ST. JAMES. The following obituary anomalously introduced by an anecdote is from the New York World: The death of the French ambassador at London, the Count do Jarnac, yesterday announced, was so unexpected that it may almost be described In the phrase which bas made bis title a household word In trance for three centuries as a coup de Jarnac. One cf the count's ancestors, Guy de Ch ibot, Sire de Jarnac, fought a duel in 1547, when fighting duels was oneofthe first duties of a gentleman, with tte Sire de La LChataignsraye. It was a desperatelv con tested duel wnb sword?, and the hire de Jarnac finally won, slaying his antagonist by an improvised pass of his wrpon, so siidden and fo brilliant that it made the author forever famous. Any unexpected issue of a problem or a difficulty since that time has teen proverbially called a coup de Jarnac. The deceased ambassador was in the midst of the gayety of the London season when he was taken suddenly ill and died. A fortnight ago his presence was chronicled at dinners given by tbe German ambassador! and by General "schenck: and at tbe time of his death Lis wile was organizing a brilliant charity bazaar for waich the hid just received a pletjdid service ol Sevres from Alme. MacMahon, a magnificent collection of illustrated works about Paris and its history from tbe Prelect of the Seine. M. Ferdinand Duval, (descried as a "LITTLE FAT MAN ALL IN BLACK" by the Shah in Lis curious account of his European journey), and admirable pictures, the work of their own gifted bands, from Gcrome, Detallle, Boulanger, Veyrassat and other notable painters of France. The count de Jarnac was closely onnected with England. His mother was a FitzGerald ot tbe family of the Dukes of Leinster, and his wife, an aci-omplished lady nine years bis peoior, was a danchter of Lord Foley. He himself belonged to the ancient noblesse of France, being a Kohan-Chabot of an old and illustrious hoiue, though not indeed of that famous house of Rohan of which everybody has read, at least in connection with tbe Cardinal Prince Louis, Queen Maria Antoinette and the "Diamond Necklace." Toe great family of Rohan now exists only in Austria, where it was naturaliz9d during the tirf French empire. Tbe head of the onse. the Duke of Montbazm and Biuillon, Prince of Rohan, Guemene and Montauban, is a member of the Austrian House of Lord and tbe Austrian Robans arecare'nl tohae it always printed in tbe Almanacb ds Gotha that they "must not be confounrjed with f tmilies calling themselves 11 jhan which be long to tbe house of Rohan not iy b.ood but only by past matrimonial alliances." For all that the French Roban-Onabots are a prou J and prosperous race, and t'e lite am ba$abor wai a man of character and of ability. He was but sixty years of age when he died. CORRECTION FOR CUMBACK. HE DOES NOT DESIRE DISCREDIT FOB WHAT SOMEBODY ELSE DID. The Greensburg Standard bas the following,which explains itself: Some three or four weeks ago a communication appeared in our columns over the signature of "A Man." The communication is on a variety of subjects and closed up with some remarks in regard to the impropriety of a lady allowing a gentleman to take her arm in promeuadlng, advice to girls, etc The Indianapolis Herald cut off that part of tbe article and published it, heading it: "Hon. Will Cumback in the Greensburg Standard." Tbe Cincinnati Enquirer copied the article, and since then it has been going tbe rounds of the press. Against this gross injustice to Mr. Cumback we enter our protest, nor can we remain silent and thus apparently give countenance to the fraud. Mr. Cumback Dot only did not write the article, but had nb knowledge of its existence until it appeared in our columns. Of course many of the papers copied tbe article innocently, not intending to do Mr. C. injustice, but some have done it maliciously, ae are confident. All such of course will not have the manliness to make any correcti jn, all others will take pleasure in righting any wrong they may nave uone mm by copying the article.

THE TWO ANCjELS. by j. g. WHrrriEK.

From Atlantic for April, God called the nearest angels who dwell with Him above; The tendere&t one was Pity, the dearest one was Love. "Arise," He said, "my angels! a wail of woe and sin Steals through the gat'.s of heaven, and saddens all within. "ily harps take np tbe mournful strain that from a lost world swells, The smoke of torment clouds the lizht and bllsrhU the asDhodels. "Fly downward to that under world, and on its souls of pain Let Love drop nlles like sunshine. a.nA fHtir tears like rain !" Two faces bowed before the throne veiled in their golden hair; Four white wings lessened dark: abyss of air. swiftly down the The way was strange, tbe fl"irht was loner at last the angels came. Where swung the lost and nether world, red wrapped in raylesa flame. Tnere Pity, shndderinz. wept; but Love, with miu vi niiuLi); IUI itfar. Took heart from Uod'a aimlghtlness and smiled aulas vi taccr. And lo! that tear of Pity onenched the flame whereon It fell. And, witn the sunshine of that smile, hope en tend into hell! Two nnvellHl faces fall of Joy looked upward to the Throne, Four white wir.irs folde J at the feet of nim who sat thereon ! And deeper ihan the sound of seas, more soft than falling flake. Amidst the hush of wing and song the Voice Eternal spake: "Welcome, my angels! ye have bronzht a holier Joy to heaven ; Ilencelorth its sweetest song shall be the song of diu luisucu : CrVI RIGHTS OPENING THE FLOOD GATES OF HATE THAT'S WrtAT CONGRESS DID FOR THE SOUTH WHEN IT PASSED THE CIVIL RIGHTS BILL, ACCORDING TO A CAREFUL AND CONSCIEN TIOUS CORRESPONDENT. The results of the civil rights bill in the South are thus summed up by Redfield, the painstaking, able and conscientious correspondent cf the Cincinnati Commercial: Oh, the poor negro! His condition In the South is to-day more pitiable than any time 8ir.ee the war. The passage of the civil rights bill has loosened the floodgates of hate as they were never loosened before. That law has occasioned more excitement and bad niooa in the aouth than any other measure that congress ha3 pas-st d.' Negro sufirage itself was and is less dreaded, and occasioned les race ill feeling tban this mischievous measure. The nexroes, I fear, can never recover from it. It will injure mem in a tnousand ways, it will hurt them whero they c&n be hurt worst. It makes the whito people hate them like the devil. They can stand negro fceffrace and every right urdur that, but tbe provision of the civil rigLt3 bill they can not stand, anu say iney no nc.. intona to sarmit to it. lney claim thfy accept in good faith tbe results of the war, but tbey deny that there U anything binding upon them to snhmit to what th y call " niasjer equality." The agitation of this meauie bas aroused race hatred to such a nitch that a rnsinntv of thn Southerners rejoice at the accumulating evidence of the aeclire of the nfgro race. A death rate sbowing that tbe negroes are dyirg irum mo to iour times iasier tbaa tee whiles, is received with such exnreaaions thi3: "That's right;" "that'll settle the mat ter." "Tbe North is determined to force mszer eoualitv noon net thev want to dc erade ' us and our wives and children, and ine sooner tee niggers are out of the way the better." V hat an alarming state ot feeling is Ihii; how unfortunate for the neeroes, wio bxvo everything to lose and no thiDjtogaiaby tho arousing of race animOsitipS. In all thA nhratMnf varanrl ra construction, in all the legislation about the negroe, there has nothing occurred which L J lias aruut.ea RACE HATRED AND ANIMOSITY like this civil rights bill. The most destructive feature in the bill as it passed the Senate was the tchcol clause. That would have swept every lree school in the South out of existence. The Senate did not know thi3,or did not care, but the House took warning, and struck out the clause. But I fear race hatred bas been so aroused that the colored schools in the South will be seriously shaken, if not entirely destroyed. There is already a clamor that they receive only the amount o insignificant that it would net support this class of schools a month. Not one negro in a hundred owns any taxable property, and not half of them pay even a poll tax. There bad al most as well be no colored schools in the South as to try to support tbem from such a fund. Another bad effect of the civil rights bill is the exaggerated notions that tbe negroes have ot it. They have a vague Idea that It wHlbHnr tVipm a crroot. otrwb- nf ri vileges and happiness of which they have i j i ,i ueic.uiuio wcu utunveu. oome way or Othpr thftV KcarceW Vnonr hnv t.hoir ara tn reap an immenso advantage without a correspvuuiuK ouuuv ui money ana muscie. Before the bill passed, while they were still looking for it in a dreamy way, expecting grand results, a lew incidents came to my notice illustratisg the air castles tbey were building. Late one night, Dr. Curry, of a !ii . . a t A - . asnvuiewas eeaieu in tne porcn o: his residence, while some one was playine a piano inside, A negro man and woman passed by. The doctor overheard the man nnv to thn wnman "Whon riot swivel rights bill passes we can go any wbar ana near a piano piay v une stormy night a negro came to Dr. Buchanan to get the doctor to visit his wife. The doctor told him the weather was so bad he could not go. "Afore long," Baid tbe colored person, "a bill will pass in congress makin' yorgo wbar I want yor to, night or day. without axing a cent for it!" Tne doctor seized a fire poker and told him to git. He got. A negro woman called at the express office and asked ior a money pacKage. " i here 19 none foi you," said the clerk, without looking "How does you know," said the wouiau, "without yor look?" "Because I know every package here, and there is nothing tor you." "Never mind," said tbe negres, in a high state of indignation, "congress is OWINK FOR TO PASS A BILL giving me rights to come behind that air counter and lopk in that air safe for mysef, without bein' beholdin' to you!" Another negro womaa stopped at Tschopick's fruk store, on Market street, and commenced squeezing the oranges one afier another. lue clerk requested her to pick out what she wanted and not frei of them II a t them to rot sooner. She became indignant. "Tha's a bill a cwine to nass frew inmrAin " she exclaimed, "that will gib me tbe rigbt io icei oo euDery orange in mat air box, ana take as many as I want, too." The evil3 of this exaggerated view of things is apparent. The negroes have an idea that the civil rights bill gives them- a grat deal more than it does, acd that the whites denv them the precious privileges that the new fancied law allows. In their innocence and ignorance they think congress can do anything; that

it is a powerful institution set up away off

somewhere for the especial benefit of th

colored race. I speak of the mass of them. Of course there ara IntaMtanf u ' uyi n w conirress is, and wbere it ia, aud an nooufc n, um tte mass ot them have a tremendous twwr'i,i ! i. f f.1'1 branch ol tbe government, and bow . iciutfu ior me especial benefit of tho blac race. Amour th vri.n in the mountain ml hoipopular idea of the civil rigbts bill la as erroneous as that entertained by the blacks. In tbe very exaggeration of the measure we have a reason for much of the race hate and animosity which has swept ever ihe Southern land with tho news of tbe passage of tbe law. Neither race understands its scope acd each finds it a reason for bating the other. Tte result has been irreparable eviL To Indicate to the Northern mind the intenseantipathy of the average Southerner to tho "negro equality" contemplated in the civil rights bill, I will give a lew sentences from the conversation ot a Tennessee lawver with me. We were standing upon the bank of tbe Tennessee river during the recent disastrous flood, and noting the wide spread havoc. " Terrible as this is," Haid he, "disastrous as it will be to our interests, it is Kiii the evils which the civil rixhU bill will bring upon our section. I would rather se3 the whole South unoer water six feet deep than to cave that law enforced among us. IT MEANS THE RCIN OF THE SOUTH. It was planned for that purpose. They want to degrade us and our children ; they want to humiliate us. They care nothing for the G d d n nigger, only to eet fci3 vote and steal his money through freed men's banks,, but the lower tbey can sink the Southern whites into the pit ot humiliation acd degradation, the better they are satisfied. II this thing is not checked, if tbe tendency ot all things to ne?ro equality is cot arrested, theSouth is poisoned as' with the breath of & poisonous gal. e will become a nation cf mongrels, like Mexico, lost to decency, to mankind, to self-respect, to everything thata high-spirited, proud white people bold dearest." Among thousands and tens of thousands of intelligent, thinking men in the South this, idea prevails. Often I bear them say "Well, we had as well make a stand here as anywhere. If we submit to the civil rights bill,, the next thing will be something else still more humiliating and repugnant. They have loaded the camel's back with the last fsather it can snnnort. Tt rights bill and save, If possible, our cnildren Hum iuB uegraoauon oi Degro equality. tt ortterhers, as a class, have little idea of the Intense antipathy of the people of the South to what they term "negro equality." They like the negroes when they "keep their place," that is, acknowledge their inferiority, but when they leave what ia supposed to be their prcper sphere, and undertake to assume airs and crowd themselves forward as "equals," the whiles hate them with an Intensity and ferocity not surpassed by any example of hate in the history of mankind on earthPersonally I have contempt tir the absurd prejudice which prevails in tbe South ca this question, the ludicrous idea holding that if one eats at a table with a negro he is "degraded." But the prejudice here, which isso Intense and so much injury to all, is occasioned by the attempt to lireik it down bv laws, palus and penalties, that there eoem no way to do but to respect these pre judicts and ancient customs, aud leave time to correct ttem. If they ever can b9 corrected. Every interference by law with these prejudices brings tnrmoil and COXFU8ION AND CERTAIN DISASTER to the blacks. The terrible Gibson countymassacre, the most deliberate and unprovoked slaughter of the blacks that has taken placa in the South in half a cent ury, was dueto the disastrous agitation of the civil rightsquestion. Not long ago I was reading the official paper of the Federai commander at Hunaboldc, near Trenton, the place of the massacre, to General McDowell, and he makes this striking and, alas! too true remark: "The troubles in tJibon county between the races began when the civil rights agitation commenced, at the time of the passage of the bill by the Senate." I quote lrom memory. The idea impressed me deeply, fcr it was a confirmation of my own olervations. Not only the trouble in Gibson county, but in a hundred other localities, is owiug to tha agitation of the most unfortunate civil rights bill. And what gnod has come irom it? How many negroes have been admitted to front seats in theaters, and to hotel accommodation, and to eating-houses in consequence? For every negro who has been admitted to the enjoyment of these privileges under the bill, Laifadoz'm have been killed, owing directly to the agitation of the subject. It does not pay. I would like to sea every man, white, black, red and sad,11-tintAl ha tho. samo rights for the same money, but to run violently azainst the prejudices of eight millions of people to carry out the tbeory, is more dacceroua than it io troubles. rvm t. have separate hotels, eatini? houses nrt graveyards. A correspondent of the Philadelphia Times from Vlneland writes: Earlv vesterday morning I called at Bridgeton jail and "Interviewed" Sheriff Wilson.

Groes, of Jefferson Medical College, in your city, reached Vineland, and, assisted by the local medical gentlemen, made an examination of the patient. At 3 p.m. I ca:led again at Bridgeton jail, and found that Mr. Landis was in ccnlnrence with his leeal friends. Benjamin Harris Brewster, of vonr cit Col. W. Potter, of Bridgeton, and W. Ä. House. Eq., of Vineland. The following, dispatch had then beau iust received frnm f Vineland: "Dr. Gross sas Carruth Is doins: admirably well under tbe circumstances. Operations performed. Piece of bone removed. Ball not found. No immed.ate danger." Later still I learned that "several pieces of bone" had been removed. The operation performed was that known as "trepanning." At a late hour I learn thatCarruth's condition inspires Lis friends with hope of ultimate recovery, although tbe danger is by no means lightly apprehended.
