THE GEORGIA LOTTERIES ABOLISHED.

THE GEORGIA LOTTERIES ABOLIsHED.-
The Georgia lottery grants are foreclosed
by prohibiting the drawings, under q
penal enactment of the late Legislature, to
take effect on the first of June, 1867
The act was passed at the session of 1858,
and the owners of legalized grants are
making arrangements to close up the bus
mess. Therefore, all lotteries pretending
to be drawn in Georgia after the above
date. must be illegal, and fraud upon the
public.

IHE extent to which the anu.Dougias
men misrepresent the feeling in the South
is remarkable. For exammplc, read the
National Democrats account Of the Doug
las meeting in New Orleans. The Dem.
ocrat Says:
"In New Orleans, the Douglas demon
stration was better attended, and the get
ters up of the concern were higly elated
until the adjournment was moved. when
three cheers were given with will for
Senator SLIDELL, who had been abused
by every speaker that addessed the meet
ing. The meeting mumher as ten
against DOUGLAS to one for him."
Now read the following from the True
Delta, published in New Orleans, and,
of course, having the means of knowing
what it says to be true:
At the conclusion of Mr.. Clack's speech
thr cheers were given for Douglas, and
given with will. A call for similar
demonstration for Slidell elected very
refreshing and general expression in the
way of groaning and Kissing and derision
The President then ANNOUNCED that pro.
cession would be formed, preceded by
the band to march to the Clay Monument
where the, meeting was adjourned by Mr.
Hahn, after giving three cheers for

to meet at the same place one week from
that time
On the succeeding Monday evening,
April 9, about the same number of persons
met at the appointed time and place. The
meeting was called to order, and the secre-
tary was ordered to read the minutes of
the previous meeting. After some altera-
tons and corrections by Mr.. Bland, they
were received and adopted The commit
tee appointed to draft the constitution

taken in relation to an argument which
had arisen between Mr. r. and himself in
the early part of the meeting. He also
moved that the Rev. j. n. Gloucester
should conduct the president elect to his
chair. Rev. J. N. Gloucester, after con-
Quoting the president to his chair, address
ed him in very pertinent manner. The

tial manner in which he had conducted

that there should be associations formed

THE COLORED PUBLIC SCHOOLS OF
NEW HAVEN.

The colored people of New Haven have
been much exercised during the past two
weeks on the subject of the colored public
schools of this city. The schools have al
ways been very Indifferent, which was not
so much the fault of the teachers in charge
of them, as it was by the neglect of the
Board of Education to provide properly for
them. The colored people, however, have
now become aroused on the subject by the
recent action of the Board, which, in at
tempting to do at the eleventh hour its
long neglected duty in providing for and
supervising these schools better, has also
taken occasion to dismiss colored teachers
and employ white ones, and thus implying
that colored teachers are incompetent to
improve their condition. This implication
aroused our people; and as the result Of
this awakened feeling on the subject, the
following copy of a memorial was adopted
at large and enthusiastic meeting of the
colored people held in Days Hall, on
Tuesday evening, the 10th inst, and sign
ed by sixty heads of families, and was pre-
scented to the Board of Education this day
by the following committee in behalf of
said meeting, viz: Rev. Messrs. Holly,
Stanford and Washington, and E. Benja-
min and S. Bayard, Esqs. AS this memo
rial is to be the basis of our future efforts
to demand even-handed justice at the hands
of the Board of Education, we wish every
man among US to be fully posted in regard
to the positions therein assumed, by hav-
ing copy in his hands. And although
lengthy, yet you will confer a great favor
on your numerous readers in this city, and
on the cause of education among our peo-
pie in general, if you will be so kind as to
publish it IN ertenso in your next issue:
MEMORIAL.
To The Board Of Education of Nel0 Haren:
The undersigned memorialists, the pa
rents and guardians of children attending
the colored public schools If this city, and
others interested therein, beg leave to pre-
sent this memorial to the consideration of
the Board of Education having the over
sight of the New Haven public schools.
Your memorialists have learned that
your honorable body has recently taken
into consideration the present condition of
the colored public schools of this city; and
as the result of this consideration, your
Board has come to the conclusion to dismiss
the well-tried and faithful teachers who
have hitherto taught these schools, and to
appoint other teachers in their stead. But
your memorialists beg leave to say that
while they are firmly convinced that it was
