NEGRO EQUALITY AMONG THE BROOKLYN
CLERGY.--A few days since, at the church of
the Rev. kfr Robinson, IN Breoklgr, a singnlar
dained for the ministry, and strange as it may
appear, the questions TO the candidate were put
by negro acting as Moeratorl When the
laying on of hands came in order, another ne.
gro preacher came down the aisle and mingled
his paws with the white brethren. Among the
white men who otliciated in this amalgamating
ordination, were the Rev. DIR. Storrs, Mr..
Robinson, the pastor of the church, and the
Rev. Theo. Cuyler. The idea Of a white man
being questioned by negro as to his qualifca-
tions for a Christian teacher, is so impious and
wicked, that it deserves notice. AS for equal
rights, we hope these clergymen will go the
whole figure and not fail to give each daugh-
ter to some negro preacher for his wife. Thus
will they show their faith by their works ~.

"THE RIsBoNED Ox."--The n. Y. World says
that at the recent League meeting in that city,
the speakers were put into one of the parlors of
the Everett House, and as their names were
called they came forward; badge of gaudy
ribbons was pinned on their breasts, and they
were marched with an escort of officers of the
society to the stand designated for them. AS
Daniel s. Dickinson was thus passing through
the crowd with his ribbons futtering, it must
have brought wildly to his mind the following
passage from speech delivered by him a. few
years since:
DO you know, my Democratic friends, how
the Republicans serve the Democrats who 90
over to them. Twill tell you how. They serve
them rs the New York butcher serves his fat
OK. He puts gaily colored ribbons on his horns
and marches him through the streets as specta-
Gle to be stared at, and then---last scene of all
he drives him to the slaughter pen. This is
the way Republicans serve Democrats who are
fattered and cajoled by them into an abandon
ment of their principles.
1t is not every man that is so signally privil-
eyed to be his own prophet.

The man who wrote it was green;
He never has been to sea,
And storm he never has seen.
He never has seen wave
As it dashed DER the vessels deck;
He never has seen fire at sea,
Or been floating upon wreck.
He never has been aroused
From his mornings gentle dose,
By the sound of the splashing water,
As it fell from the horrid hose
He never has heard a man
Scrubbing right over his head,
With noise sufficient to rouse
From the grave the slumbering dead.
He never has seen fat woman
Growing thinner day by day,

While people look careessly on,
Though in tears the woman may be,
And unfeelingly say its nothing at all,

And crept into bed in his coat,
While every motion increased his hroes.

A SCENE IN A JUSTICES COURT
By c. NJ. X.

The following scene actually occur
red in justice court, held in this
State some thirty years ago. The
plaintiff was a poor wandering In
dian, who was grossly abused by a
party of young men who had assem-
bled at an Inn, and were doubtless
intoxicated at the time the assault
was committed.
The principal witness was a tall,
thin, ill-faYered, herring-fed, looking
man very quiet and very simple.
"Simon Chickory -
Wall" replied that original.
"Step forward and remain uncov-
cred while administer to you the
necessary OATH said the Justice
sternly.
Simon obeyed, as dog crawls to
his master to receive the uplifted lash
simply because he cannot help it.
After giving his evidence in his
own manner, and in spite of the
frequent Interruptions of the Justice
who desired to have only the precise
facts relative to the direct case, he
was "turned over to the tender
mercies of the counsel for the defence
to undergo the fortunes of crossques-
tioning, which even to the man OF
the world in our day, are not pleas
ant.
"Mr. Chickory, you say this man
was abused. How do you know that
he was abused %
81 see'em do it.
"Who do you mean by them -
Simon here named the defendants
severally.
every we'll Mr.. Chickory, but
what did they do to him %
"They kicked him, hit him and
knocked him down besides treatin g
him unhandsomely.'
"Do you ever drink ?''
"Rather expect doe
"What do you drink p
81 amt no-wlsa patlcllar, jest
what you please squire. -
"Did you ever drink any of that
spurious liquor called New England
rum ?"
81 guess as how I have
"Did yon drink during the even
ing when the assault was commit
ted %
GA leetle, squire
Chow much do you think?'
"Not over pint, reckon
every we'll you said just now
that they kicked him. Do you mean
that they all kicked him p
'Sartainly, squire, every body in
the room kicked him.
You are sure?'
For sartain.
Then, Mr.. Chickory, if every one
there kicked him, then you must
have kicked him also.
Simon was fairly cornered. He
scratched his head and looked very
foolish as well as puzzled.
AT length after some moments
hesitation his face frightened up as
though he had mastered something
like an idea, and he exclaimed,
4 wa Mt there =
very we'll, Mr.. Chickory, your
evidence has been very satisfactory
to me, and doubtless has not failed
to convince his Honor. You may
be seated
Simon took his seat with the air
of Importance Of one who is conscious
at least, ofgiving himself satisfaction
although a litter ran through the
motley crowd and his Honor bit his
lips hard to prevent the departure of
that gravity necessary for the occa-
sion.
The Indian, although an injured
party, lost the case; but the young
men pleased with the unexpected re-
suit of their trial, not only made up
a handsome purse for him, but also
allowed Simon to drink his fill of
his favorite beverage, and all parties
expressed their perfect satisfaction.

UNSUCCESSFUL IN THIS LIFE confess
that increasing years bring with them
an increasing respect for those who do
not succeed In life, as tirusv "0itio
commonly used. Heaven is said to be
place for those who have not succeeded,
upon earth; and it is surely true that
celestial graces do not best thrive and
bloom in the. hot blaze of worldly pros
perity. Il-success sometimes arises
from superabundance of qualities in
themselves good, from. a conscience too
sensitive, taste too fastidious, self
forgetfulness too romantic, modesty
too retiring. I will not go so far as to
say, with. living poet, that the world
knows nothing of its greatest men," but
there are forms of greatness, or at least
excellence, that die and make no sign;
there are martyrs that miss the palm
but not the stake; there are heroes with
out the laurel, and conquerors without
the triumph.
