The testimony in the Cowley case would indicate that folks living on some Eastern rivers need some sort of filling to keep them from-Gtarving. In looking over Southern outrages upon negroes, we notice that Governor Colquit, of Georgia, several ex-governors and various other prominent citiz9na are interesting themselves in the establishment of a public Horary for colored people at Atlanta. It would be highly interesting to know if any similar outrages upon the negro are being perpetrated upon the negroes in any of the Northern States. It is well to remember that there are cow in operation 2$i4 National'- banks. These institutions are, to all intents and purposes, in so far as they act as a money power, one fcank. They act together, and form a dangerous power. Oo December 1, 1879, their aggregate capital amounted to $451,067,2t.j, with a surplus of $114,76S.2S, and held private deposits amounting to $719,727,5(.'8. Against this power the people are now called upsn to ßght, end if it is not broken the danger to the liberties cf the people will steadily increase. Ms UvGEETAKEE lUseEix thinks that he has buried between 40 and 50 of the negro immigrant He says that for burial in Greenlawn cemetery only is be obliged to obtain permits, but in the various othe cemeteries of the county there are no permits required. This will account for the silly charges made by the Journal and correspondents of the Cincinnati and Chicago papers that the record shows that he had buried only eight bodies. He is now engaged in making np a complete record of the nam ber of negro interments, which he will pub lisb in a day or two.

So far as Repuplican developments are concerned, there is noth iog in fight calculated to depress the spirits f Democrats or to excite doubts as to the results of the coming campa'gn. Among politicians, in a position to know whereof they speak, the conclusion is that Grant will ba nominitad at Chlcsgo a probability that Democrats are not disposed to antvgomzs. Blaine and Sherman may make considerabla noise, but Grait will bear off t'aeprizs. He has the machiae and the right' man to operate it In due time Senator Voorhees will give to the country the true inwardness of the exodus business, and it is safe to predict that when he does make the exhibit there will ba a number of Republican leaders who will feel like the darkey when toll there were but two roads for him to travel "one lei to h I and the other to damnation" whereupon the darky exclaimed: "Den dis nigger will take to 'de wood!" The SU Lriis Gtobd Democrat as pure a Republican organ as ever defended a whisky thief or a Louisiana liar says of Hayes: He is so good-natured, so weak, so apt to promise well and to perform badly, that it is lmporib! to Judge tils works by the standard usually applied to the conduct of public men. There is small reason to doubt the hoaesty of his Intentions, but when we come to consider the failures that nave resulted from all his prominent undertakings and their causes, we are foreed to the conclusion that Most of his honest Intentions have been an wise, and those that have escaped the brand ot folly "save been so weakly followed that they htve only served to brine his administration into centempt. He has done more than bring his administration into contempt. His occupancy of the White House has been national degradation a continental crime the first and only instanoe where perjury elevated a man to the office of president; and for this crime the leaders ot the Republican party are gailly.

He was regarded as the founder of the American school system, and a school was organized under his direction at Newark, N.J., in the first quarter of the present century. The application of a colored woman for admission caustd much apprehension, but she was admitted, and the school at Parsippany for the education of colored teachers was soon instituted. Bernard Biglin went home from a carousal at Vernon Hill, Neb., expressly "to have some fan with the old man," his father. He began by pulling his aged parent out of bed and compelling him to dsnce a J Ig barefooted on the cold floor. Then he commanded his fat her to stand on his head; but the feat was beyond the old man's power, and the son began to whip him for falling, when his mother, a stalwart sort or woman, bounded out with a chair, and knocked him senseless. Bernard's skull was broken and he came near dying. General. Robert Toomiis has lately been visited at his Georgia village home by a correspondent of the Boston Herald, who describes him as "a man worn out with years and a passionate existence, but glorying in the fact that he Is not a citizen of the United States; that his political disabilities have not been removed, and that he is the one only and unrepentant rebel." He was the guiding mind of the Georgia Constitutional convention of 1877, but that is the only public office he has held since the war. His closest friend is Alexander U. Stephens, with whom be discusses politics by the day. COUNTY COMMISSIONERS Caa Not Supsrlntsnd Public Work Under the Law. Attorney General Woollen, in answer to a communication, yesterday submitted the following opinion: Sir Your favor of the 4th Inst, has been received and considered. You ask me the following question : If It Is lawful for boards of county commissioners to employ one of their own number to superintend the construction of publ.c works, such as bridges, etc.? In answer, I must say ihatllblatc not. They are public nincers, with well denned duties, and one of them Is to employ, If it should become necessary, a superintendent to supervise lue construction of such public improvements as they may be authorized to bulid. There are three members of the board, and they should never place themselves in suoli a position as to prejudice or forestall t'ielr Just action, for the public have a right to the lre action of all three o' the members In every question that comes belore the board. When acting in the capacity of superintendent the commissioner would not be acting ofllelally, but would have to bd paid such compensation as Disassociates should determine. In the de termination of this question the public would be deprived of his Judgment in the allowance of a claim against the county, which could have not been contemplated by the law. I, therefore, think that suoti employment of a commbuiloner is not only In bad taste, but coutrary to public policy and illegal. ery respectfully, T. W. Woollen-, Att'y General. To John 8. Math es, commissioner of Elkhart county, Goshen, Ind. A Oaod Joke. Judge John Green, of Tipton, has a married daughter, who resides with her husband at Marsballtown, Iowa. Oae night this week, shortly after midnight, she arrived at Tipton with the husband and two children, the youngest a babe of a few ' months old, who had not yat made the acquaintance of the judge and his amiable wife. Mrs. Green was absent at the death bed of a neighbor's child and the judge stowed away the newarri va!s in an apartment remote from his wife's room, who retired to bed unconscious of the addition to the family. In the morning before rising the hired girl brought to her bedside the crowing loftnt, informing the astonished matron that it bad been left on their doorstep the night before, and sljly suggesting a marked resemblance to tbe judge, who, sheadd'd, had decided to keep it in the family. Mrs. Green indignantly denied the resemblance, saying "there was not a drop of Green blood in it," and declared in very empbatlo language that the child should be taken to the township trustee's at once. She would hive none of it in her bouse. It is impossible to surmise what awaited tbe Judge on her descent to the dining room had not the daughter ap Kared upon the scene and introduced the tfst addition to the family. Tae smile has not left the judge's face yet, and even Mrs. Green now laughs at her own discomfiture.

THE BUriEEIHa NEQR0E3.
Sentinel Reporter Hakes Another Brief Tour Among tüe Negro Importations, and Finds Much Suffering. (Frora Wednesday's Dally.) . Those who doubt the reports of the destitution and utter want existing among the colored people of this city should vuit them in their miserable abodes, as a Sentinel repre tentative Jid last night. The condition of these people Is proof, of course, that they have been deceived. Et is the old story. It was represented to tbeta that furnished bouses were here awaiting them, aot ready wages at C20 per month. Upon these representations George "-oa-nelly, a fine-looking colored man, of far more than ordinary intelligecce, acted, leaving home in Korth Carolina some weeks ago, to nd friends and sympathy in Indiana. He yesterday walked tbe streets until Cootsore, asking for work begging for work or breadand at night, starving, dragged himself to a miserable shelter, at the end of Prospect street, near Adams' brick yard. He tells rf the JLadical emissaries, wh&4 and black, who sought them iu their North Carolina homes, persuading them to come to Indiana. He says they were brought here for their votes alone. At the corner of West and North street, in a'woeden tenement building, there are two families, of which four members are sick, and all without either work or food. The last place visited was what k known as tbe "Barracks," at the corner of Pratt and California Streets. In this building there are several families 31 people all of whom slept -cold last night, and will go without breakfast this morning. fa a room on the ground floor were two women, both of whom informed tbe reporter that they bad looked all day, in vain, for work, and had nothing to eat. Oae of tbem had gone with confidence to the residence of a Mr. Fletcher, ytterday, for help, but that gentleman was not at home. She asked the reporter for the name of some one who would give her something test in the morn leg. Mary of our colored fellow c Uzensd' Ssrve great praise for contributing to alleviate this distress, but they are usually poor, and further than sympathy have little to give. Rev. Moses Broyles, the colored orator and politician, was not of the number, however, whose ministering virtues tbe reporter lan evening beard praised by these people. He is said to be cold-hearted in the way of zivirjg anything but advice. He cau not bring his mind from its exalted plane of statesmanship down to the drudgery of a Christian life. He is a soulless corporation of black, bigoted Radicalism, sbamefully indifferent to every appeal of feeling. Rev. Broyles is a voter and the straight Radical ticket every time. Home cf the Feeble-Minded. A representative of the Sentinel had the pleasure yesterday of a conversation with Hon. B. F. Ibach, the superintendent of the Home of the Feeble-Minded. On being congratulated upon the falsity given certain rumors concerning tbe Home, even by Republican papers, he said, "Oh! tbere was nothing in the rumor j. The Home is in splendid condition, aod, by the time the next Legislature meetr, I will be able to satisfy everybody tbat I have made of the Home one of the best institutions in the country. Otr representa'ive inquired the origin of the rumors, and Mr. Ibach replied that he was at a loss to know just how they originated, but that he had been told that they had probably come from the fact that he had made some changes in the mode of getting his supplies fcr tbe institution. He had been trading with certain parties paying them usual rates not extravagant ones by any meats but the board of trustees ordered him to buy at wholesale in the future, as a very consid erable saving could be made in that way. He had no choice but to obey his superior officers, and he thinks, perhaps, that it may have given offense to some of his frieDds. As Mr Charles Hubbard had been a very warm friend of the institution, and a Republican, our representative a-ked him how Mr. HubuArd regarded the recent rumor, and Mr. Ibach replied that Mr. Hubbard did not believe them, neither had be put any credence in them from the s:art, and that he bad stood manfully by tha management. Mr. Ibach is, undoubtedly, the right man in the right place. He seems to be filled with interest in his mission, and regrets that even f alae rumors should have been set tloat in regard to his management. Mr. loach stated also that he had discharged one of thc employes sometime since, and perhaps this had contributed somewhat to the budget of falsehoods which had been started. TAKING II05IE OYSTERS. The Uses of the Taper Bag: Also of a Man' Various rockets. rjDetroit FreePress.l A First ward man was told by his wife to bring home a quart of oysters to fry for supper. He dratik a few prescriptions of egg-nogg, and then took a paper bag full of selrcts and started for home. He stopped at two or three saloons, and the bag began to melt, and when he left the last saloon the bottom fell out ot the bag, and tbeoysiers were on tbe sidewalk. We will leavt the man there gazing upon tbe wreck, and take tbe reader to tbe residence where he is expected. A redfaced woman is putting the finishing touch to the supper table and wondering why her husband does not come with the oysters. Presently a nolee as of a lead pencil in the kev-hole salutes her ear. and she goes to tbe door and opens it, and findj him taking the pencil out of the key-hole. Not seeing any oysters she asks him if he has forgotten tbe oysters. "Forgotten noth (hie) ing," ssjs he. He walks np to the table and asks for a plate, which is given by the unsuspicious wife. "Damsaccident you ever (hie) see," said the truly old man, as he brought hie hand cut of his over coat pdeket with four oysters, a little smoking tobacco and a piece of cigar stub. "Slipprysoystersev (hie) er was," said be, as he run his hand down in the other pocket, bringing np five oysters, a piece of envelope and a piece of wire that was need as a bail to the paiL "Got all my p(hlc)ockets full," said he, as he took a large oyster nut of his vest pocket Then he began to go down in his pants pocket, and finding a ho;e in it he said: "Six big (hic)ters gone down my trousers leg. Sposi'll nod them in my boot," and he sat down to pull off his boot, when the lady took the plate of oysters and other stuff into the kitchen and threw them in the swill, and then she put him to bed, and all the time he was trying to tell her how the bag butted jutt as be was in front of "All Saints ca(blc).bdral " Musical Taste In Animals. Chamber's Journal. A remarkable instance of a toad's erjoyment of musio came nnder my notice some years since. I was on a visit with my busband and one of my daughters to my father, who lived in the south of England. He bad a very pretty garden and lawn; and it was his delight in the evening to sit at his drawing-room, window while I played on tbe piano and sang to him. Oae evening he said to me: "My dear, here is a toad nnder the window. It has been here a long time without moving. I believe It is listening to your singing." When I ceased playing, the toad slowly crept away; but fery evening when I sang, the creature earn, took it plane ander the window and the? remained, , Pee evening, '
1 1 my fathers request, I eaddenry 1 stopped he music, and in a few ml antes it went away. We watched it until it reached the path, when commencing another song, it stopped, listened, and thsn slowly returned to its place ander tbe window. When I left and went home there was no more music. Tbe toad was never again seen. Some yesrs previous to tny marriage, my fattier lived in an. old hall in tbe neighborhood of one of oar large towns. The grounds were extensive. It was his delight to have a sort of a model farm, which gave me many opportunities of studying the different char acters of tbe various animals upon it. Then 1 saw the influence of musio upon maoy of them. There was a beautiful horse, the pride and delight of us all; and like many others, be had an unconquerable dislike to be -caught My fattier bad so trained hi E to obedience that he gsvevery little trouble; a whistle and a wave of the hand, and Robert would come quietly to be saddled. But it left to our old gardener Willy, he would lead him a chase, generally ending In defeat One very hot summer day I was sitting at work in the garden, when Willy appeared streaming with persniration. "What is the matter, Willy?" "Matter enough, miss. There's that Robert, the uncanny beast; he won't be caught, all 1 can do or say. I've give him corn, and one of the beet pears off the tree; but he's too deep for me he snatched the pear, kicked ud his heels and off he is, laughing at me ot the bottom of the meadow." I was very sorry for the old man, but I did not clearly see how to catch the delinquent I could well believe he was laughing at oar old friend, for he was a curious animal. "Well, Willy, what can I do?" He won't let me catch him, you know." "Ay, but miss, if you will only just go in and begin a toon on the peanner. cook says he will come up to the fence and harken to you, for he is always a-doing that and maybe I can slip behind and cotch him." I went in at once, notexpectiDgmy strata gem to succeed. Bat in a. few minutes the saucy creature was standiog quietly listening while I played "Scots wha ha'e wi' Wallace Bled." The halter was soon 'round bis neck; and he went away to be harnesed quite happy and contented. There was a great peculiarity about his
taste for mus'c. He never would stay to listen to a plaintive song, I soon observed this. It I played "Scots wha ha'e," he would listen well pleased. If I changed the measure and expression, playing the same air plaintively, as for instance in the "Land o' the Leal," he would toss his head and walk away, as if to say: "That is not my sort of music." Changing to something martial, he would return and listen to me. In this respect be entirely differed from a beautiful cow we had. She had an awful temper. Old Willy used to say: 'She is the most contrariest beast under the sun." If she were in one of her ill humors, it was with the greatest difficulty she could be milked. She never would go with the other cows at milking time. Nancy be milked with them! that was a thing not to be thought of She liked the cook; and when not too busy cook would manage MissNtncy. But if she were not very care til, up would po Nancy's foot, and over would go the milk-can and its precious coLtsnts When tbe ccck milktd her it was always lose to the fence, near the drawiog-room. If I were playing she would stand perfectly still, yielding ber milk without aoy trouble, and would reintia until I ceased. As long as I played p'.alntlve music "The Lsnd o' the Leal," "Home, Sweet Home." "Robin Adair," any sweet, tender air she teemed entranced. I have tried her, and changed to martial mnsic, whereupon she invatiably walked away. I could give many instances of a love for music in animals. I will give another. I was sitting in tbe drawing room one evenicz, singing to mamma. It vas a double room. with folding doors. Sbe was in one where there was a lamp. In my room, which was un lighted; the window was open, and close to the window was a stand for music When I ceased playing I heard a peculiar sound, and was conscious there was something in the room. I called for a light There, sitting on the stand, was a large white owl. He looked far lesi surprised than we did In a minute or two be stepped quietly oat of the window, and Hew away. After this we did not leave the lower sash of the window open, but the owl still came, and sat upon the stone ou'side, listening. A Reminiscence of Madame Bonaparte. l.Mrs. Hooper's Pati Letter to The Philadel phia Telegraph. J I have read recently the "Life and Letters of Madame Bonaparte." What a strange story! That American beauty, with her romantic history, is as unromantic a personage as one can well imagine. I recently met an American lady wha has resided for long years in Paris, and who knew Madame Bona pane very well, having made her acquaintance at the time she came to Paris to try to obtain some portion of old King Jerome's estate for her son. Sie describes her as retaining much of her extraordinary beauty, even at the adyacced age she had then reached. Her neck and arms were still very lovely, her complexion fresh, acd her eyes brilliant and expressive. Her remaining charms were set off by no elegancies of the toilet She appeared usually in cue or two dresie9, one of which was a black stuff for ordinary occasions, and the other a black eilk, which she wore to dinners and evening entertainments. These dresses were both made very short to display a pair of feet and ankles ot whoss symmetry she was justly vain. She took tbe deepest interest in all the movements of Prince Napoleon, who was then inhabiting the Palais R iyal, and engaged rooms overlooking the Place du Palais Royal, so that sbe could see hie?, whenever he left the palace to drive out. Whenever she was in her rooms she passed all her time at the window watching for the brother of her son. My informant one day called to see her and found her seated at the window. "Yes, I am looking for him," she remarked ; "that is the chief occupation of my dsys " Perhaps in the strongly-marked Napoleonic countenance of "her husband's son, she recogniz?d the image of that other Jerome, tbe husband of her youth and the father of her only child. 8ne never ceased to cherish the hope of seeing her family allied anew to royalty, or at least to nobility, by marriage, till the union cf her grandson to an American lady blighted her latter aspirations a ad aroated afresh her bitter indignation, though she afterward be cime perfectly reconciled to tbe match. But she had one fixed idea respecting her son and her grandsons, namely, that they ought to have espoused ladies of royal blood. At the jam at tbe close of one of the recent grand social panics in Chicago the "Philosopher" and chief of one of our great morning dailies was observed searching anxiously among tbe head tiles for a covering to his scanty locks. A witty lawyer stood looking some time at the fruitless search, and finally said: "See here, what are you looking for?" MA first-class hat," responded the editor, "which I hed when I came here." "Pshaw I was the retort "we have been running on second class hata for over 40 minutes." Chicago Inter-Ocean. A Dutchman thus describes an accident: "Vonce a long vile ago, I rent in tos mine abble orchard, to climb a bear tree to get some peaches to make vrow a plum pudding mit; and when I gets on the tobermost branch, I vail from the low rmost limb, mit von leg on both Bides of the fence, and like to stove my outside in."

. A UlRACtES pj foE WOODS. A Virginia Doctor Who J-houlJ Monopolize the Practice. Wheeling Register. Scott county, Vs., is in the extreme south western portion of the State, and Is hemmed in on every side by high mouatains. It is almost entirely destitute of roads, mills and schools, although it contains a few churches. Nevertheless, tbis rude, remote anl almost uncivilized reg'on has produced a man who, if the newspapers published in that section o? the State are to be believed, has gifts that lift bim high absve ordinary mortals. His name is Miller, Tbe sick and lame and blind come to him and are cured of their infirmities. He gives no medicine and charges no fee. Two citizens of Salem,' one alHlcted with total deafness and the other with cancer in the face, paid a visit to this natural doctor - some days ago. Tne deaf man came back with his hearing restored. The man with the cancer was entirely relieved of pain, and the symptoms which the doctor said would precede a perfect cure have set in. Tbe Salem Register says that a Fhiladelphi an has offered the doctor $40,000 to travel with him a year, but he declined the offer, and said that no amount of money could induce him to travel for a single day. He says his power is from God. All these stories seem incredible. Dr. MtConnel, at present a member of the Virginia House of Delegates from Scott county, Bays that he sent an old woman to this man, who had not been out of her room for 20 yeais and could not walk a step. Her bed was put on a wagon, and she was taken to see Miller. He had no faith whatever in Miller's alleged miraculous gift of healing; but, to his utter astonishment, the old woman came back walking. A man with such a gift as this can cot long remain hidden away in the mountains of Southwestern Virginia. Unless Miller is a fraud, which is very probable, we will soon hear something more about him. Wonderful Cures. Kev. F. W. Bucholz, Waseca, Minn., used the S Jacobs Oil in the case of a lady of his congregation who had been bed-ridden with Rheumatism for seventeen years. She used tie Sr. Jacobs Oil for three days, and was able to lesve her bed. Mr. R Schaefer, No. .'51 Brown street. Al

ST T-Ti ITT! tr m . . w air. r . line, Laiavette, xna., reports a raie where a man suffered so badly with Rheumatism that he could not move. His legs were swollen acd he had tbe most terri ble paine. Twelve hours after the first id plication of the St Jacobs Oil the pains were gone ana tne swelling had eisappeared. mi. uenry ocnaeier, MUiersburg, J was cured of Rheumatism in the hips. Äfr. F.

Litd bottle of St Jacobs Oil, and felt, as sbe sssertf, like new-born. Christian Hanni, E-q., Youngstown, O , is full of joy over the wonderful cure of his wile by St Jacobs Oil. For twelve long years she had suffered with Neuralgia in the head, and often had tbe most terrible pains. Half a bottle of 8t Jacobs Oil cared ber entirely. Mr. Wm.
