Negro Soldiers.

During tho debate on the bill for enter.
Ing negro soldiers, which took place in the
House last week, Mr.. Loveioy submitted the
following bit Of history:
The idea Of using colorcd men as soldiers
is no new idea. Facts have been referred TO
in this discussion, and have few more
with which every student OF American his
tory is familiar, furnished by Southern men
of revolutionary days-mcn who were not
anti-slavery men, nor abOltiouSts in the
sense that the gentleman from Kentucky,
Mr. Crittendcu. speaks Of The first |
have is the testimony Of Hon. Henry lau-
rcns, of South Carolina, in letter he wrote
to Washington, under date of March lG,
lI79 ask my conservative friends upon
the other side of the House, who are 80
alarmed at the idea of employing negro
slaves to defend this Republic, and rescue
il from the dominion of traitors. to consider
this Southern testimony. / refer first to
what Hon. Henry laurcns, of South Caro-
lima, said on this subject In a letter dated
March l6, l779, written to General Wash
ington, he used the following language:
I" Had We arms for three thousand such blacks
as could select in Carolina, should have no
doubt of success in driving the British out of Geor
ga, and subdaing East Florida before the end of
July"
James Madison, in letter which he wrote
to Joseph Jones, on the 10th Of November,
1880, uses this forciblo language;
Would it not be as well to liberate and make
soldiers at once of blacks themselves, as to make
them instruments OF enlisting white soldiers2 1t
would certainly be more consonant with the prin-
ciples Of liberty, which oughtntver to be lost sight
of in contest for libarty and with white officers,
and majority Of white soldiers. no imma ginary
danger can be feared from themselves, as there
ainly could be none from the effect of the example
on those who should remain in bondage"
Further along down in history, two years
later, that gallant patriot and soldier Of
the Revolution, General Nathaniel Greene.
upon this very subject, in letter to Cen
eral Washington, uses this language:
al have recommended to this State [South Caro-
lima to raise some black regiments"
Remember this was in letter addressed
to Washington, on the oath day of January,
1882. This is the testimony of a soldier not
tainted by what the gentleman from Ken
lucky Mr., Crittenden calls abolitionism
but a true patriot as well as a brave soldier,
who was not afraid Of contamination in the
use Of colored soldiers.
In another letter to Governor Rutledge
he uses this language:
The national strength Of the country, in poir.
ofnumbcrs, appears 10 me to consist much more in
the blacks than in the whites Could they be in
corporated and employed for its defense, it would
afford you double security. That they would make
good soldiers have not the least doubt"
Says General Nathaniel Greene, to the
Governor of South Carolina, that they
would make good soldiers have not the
least doubt" | put that opinion against
the opinion Of the distinguished Represen.

REMARKABLE MAGNETIC PHENOMENAL

Moscow, the officers employed were sur
prised by finding marked inclination OF
the pendulum toward the city. With a
view to obtain data for comparison, the OBJ
seryation was repeated at another station
some miles distant, and afterward at others
until an entire sweep had been made around
the region, as II may be called, of the an

Neutral Men.

We often hear men, who a few months
ago expressed an ardent attachment for the
Southern Confederacy and earnestly hoped
for its ultimate success, now declaring that
they are neutrals. After doing all they
could to destroy the Government clutching
them like vice, they impudently say" Let
us alone-we are neutrals p The murderer
is neutral when Justice locks him in his cell.

An old broker of forty years experience
in Philadelphia. New y ork and Boston, in a
series of Revelations of the Stock EX-
change written for the Boston Commercial
Bmietin, gives the following "Reminiscences
The glory of the great Regulator had all
departed. No crowds OF men nor millions
of money resounded in the marble palace
which had been erected nj n cost of half q
million a. dollars. Only All occasional foot

tons in tl,r high vaulted banking rooms,
and all the on, 'cs around it were silent and

hall. alone, Mr.. Patterson, with the old gray
headed porter, kept watch and ward each
day playing the farce that the bank still
lived, on the identical spot where he had
paid ont billions and trillions of money.
One day stranger entors, evidently
from the West-tar West.

There is no Cashier"
"What, " and hesitating moment, he
burst into loud sharp CRY Of" There S
no Cashier ?"
From the vaultcd ceiling echoed back in
distinct words There's no cash here!
The stranger started, looked up to where
the reply came, stared at the teller, and
gathering up his bills, departed without
another word. Mr.. Patterson also started
at the Delphic oracle, and his mind having
for some time been uneasy under his false
position and the sad memories it brought,
determined to retire from the banking
hall whose fame was dead, and post notes
fed, and all but him departed" So little
an incident decided him, and he left the
scene of his former useful and brilliant
career forever.
The remains of the Bank were removed
to some back rooms III No. 76 Walnut
street, and the building sold, after time,
to the Federal Government, who now oc-
cupy it as Custom House. Upon the
body of the dead monster there sat for
many years after an inquest of ghouls, rich
men of high standing and character, who
did not hesitate to draw $4,000 q year for
each other out of the little left to SO many
thousand widows, orphans, and broken
down merchants; and continued to feast
upon the crushed orange till every drop of
Juice was sucked dry when they too re-
lgned-and the once glorious Bank of the
United States became like the baseleSs
fabric Of dream.

THE GRAVE.
FROM THE GERMAN OF SAILS.
The grave is dark and still
In terror doth expand
II walls with gloomy pail
The undiscovered land
The song of nghtingales
Sounds never in the tomb
Here only Friendships rose
Perennial doth bloom.
Sweet brides bereft are wringing
Their hands 50 tightly bound
The orphans wall no echo
Draws from the hollow ground
There is no earthly portal
Where lOnged-tor peace may come
'Tis through the graves dark doorway
We reach at last our home.
The weeping heart, aspiring,
Faces lite's battie-roar;
The peace il is desiring,
Gains, when il beats no more.

WAS THE Moon EVER CoMET.-Accord-
ing to NJ. Argo, the Arcadians thought them
selves of older date than the moon. They
maintained that their ancestors had inhab-
tied this planet before it had any satellites.
Struck with this singular opinion, some
philosophers have imagined that the moon
was formerly a comet which in performing
its elliptical course around the sun, came
into the neighborhood of the earth, and was
drawn in to reyolye around it. Such a
change of orbit is possible, but evidently
it could not have taken place if the comets
perihelion distance had been great, The
comet must, therefore, have passed very
near the sun, and have experienced an in
ense heat capable of fdissipating every trace
Of humidity, The almost entire absence of
m atmosphere around the moon the scorched
appearance of its vast mountains and
deep valleys, and the few plains that are
seen, have been cited as proofs that this
| luminary was once comet.
