AFALsEHoop NAILED.-1n the Board Of Com
mon Council In its session yesterday, Mr Shep-
herd rose TO a personal explanation, and read
from the proceedings Of the Peace Democracy
meeting held on Saturday night last, as pub
lished In the Star, the following remarks made
by Mr. Mulloy, a member Of that board:
"The speaker referred to the school question
and said when the question was before Councils
the no-party' men, including Peak, Murtagh,
Shepherd, Lewis and Others, voted against the
word white and In that were endorsed as
unconditional Union men. Ia voice They
are all black themselves The speaker said he
was a candidate for the suffages of the Fifth
ward, and whoever voted for Bill Mulloy would
vote for a man who was opposed to everything
out the Union, the Constitution and democracy
Mr.. >. said that this question had been harped
upon long enough, and that some had begun to
believe the falsehood. When the movement was
made to insert the word white In the bill allu-
ded TO he regarded II as intended for 'buncombe,
and nothing else The proposition was humbug
No one had ever contemplated the placing Of
white and black on an equality In the schools he
would be the last man to make such a move. In
the most extreme abolition localities this was not
done, nor could Ii ever be done. Whoever
charged him with such an idea uttered false
hood. He represented the views Of me lority Of
the people who were opposed to bringing in the
negro as an elsctioneerlng hobby for the benefit
of the " Peace Democracy"
