CRIMES AND cAsuALTIEs.

A tragedy was recently enacted in cot
tage situated in a small hamlet of the com
mune of MOnieux (Vaucluse) France. A
violent dispute having arisen out of a feeling
of jealousy between husbandman and his
wife, the former ended it by firing a gun
point blank into the mouth of the woman
wounding at the same time, his little daugh-
ter, aged three years, who was in her arms
at the moment The assassin Immediately
afterward blew out his own brains with the
same weapon.
Michael Donahue, fireman on the Erie
Railroad fell from his engine while oiling it
when in motion, near Portage Bridge, on
Monday. The train was backed up, and the
poor fellow found sitting beside the track,
his head in his hands, and his skull fractur-
ed He died in short time after being
taken up
At st. Louis, on Sunday, Ellen Desgeou, a
mulatto, was being roughly handled by some
men in her house, when she seized Yevol-
yer and fred at them. The ball passed
through the door of room opposite, and
entered the breast of Betty Hendrick, living
there, who died instantly. Ellen was ar
rested.
A young lady went into Brooklyn store
to buy some cigars for her invalid father
As she turned to leave, her waterfall took
fire from lamp on the counter, and before
the flames could be extinguished, waterfall
hat and veil were burned, and her hair badly
singed.
At Rodman, Jefferson County Mrs. Emma
Wardwell was found dead in the cellar o
her own house, her skull fractured and hel
temples gashed, her feet resting upon tn,
curb of a spring, and by her side tub o
butter, with which she was probably engaged
when attacked and killed. The murder is
mystery.

ion, &c. Why 60 beyond our duty as an
ecclesiastical convention and pass declarato-
ry resolves which must embarTass, perhaps
expei, these returned delegates?
But still more, far more, did care for my
clerical brethren from several Northern do
ceses, who could not conscientiously consent
TO legislate here on any such extra ecclesias-
tical matter, and who had earnestly request
ed me to bring out this protest, that loyalty
70 our country scds not in this question at all.
1t was untrue, ungenerous and unjust to re-
present this as the point This was not the
point. The point was simply this; is 1t right
to legislate here, by way of political manifes-
tations, on such topics of civil polity, history
and duty? We say it is Sorong and sinful,
rs well as unwise and hurtful This is the
conscience Of as loyal clergymen. Many most
loyal clerical brethren had urged me thus TO
speak for myself and for them. ! cared lit

tured to tell my own history in this respect,

loved our country, and rejoiced in its tri-
umph over the rebellion and in the over
throw of African slavery, heartily and fully;
and we all praise God for these His great
mercies. None could be more loyal on any
of these points. Only, we are now conyinc-
ed and resolved that we must vote against
such wrong and hurtful transgressions of the
duty of this convention to keep its legisla-
ton strictly to things ecclesiastical. We
hear of public opinion demanding such ac-
tion; of the press and the telegraph spread-
ing the news of our proceedings and awaken.
ing hostility to the Church and to those who,
on any ground, vote against such action
being had here. Let us do our duty; our
duty in the Church. to the Church; and our
ecclesiastical and our personal interests will
be safe in Gods hand, Therefore, as loyal
men and citizens, while not objecting at all
to the main purport of these and like resolu-
tions, while really holding the convictions
they express-loving our country, rejoicing
in her triumph, in her Union, in her uniyer'
sal freedom, and praising God for all these
nestimable gifts, we cannot conscientiously
consent to any legislation on such topics
here and now, in this General Convention o
the Protestant Episcopal Church in tn,

honestly and intensely loyal to the natior
and ali its honor, interests and forward move
ments, as any mSR either in or out of thi

take from our Statute Book, the "Black
Code" so far as it conflicts with the views
expressed by President johnson to the South
Carolina delegationH So far, the dominant
party in our Legislature has refused to do
either; and to-day our State rulers are cling
ing to Slavery as political abstraction,
when they know Slavery is dead, and that
their persistence in its support only inter
rupts for time the complete reconciliation
of the country.
The "Black Code of this State was in
part re-adopted by the Legislature about two
years since. One of its provisions is, that
no free negro or free mulatto shall give evi-
dence against any person, except in criminal
prosecutions, when it shall appear to the
Court, that no competent white witness was
present at the time the fact charged is al
legged to have been committed, or that a
white witness being SO present is dead or alb
sent from the State and cannot be produced
In no other case, as we understand the laws
on this subject, can the negro testify in our
Courts. He is entirely excluded in all cipil
puoed WuhtoNcIs We permit hulte nltu ~
prove their books of original entry--we al.
low parties to an action to examine one an
other, and we even clothe white" felons
with the right to testify, but we carefully
exclude the negro. Justice, not only to the
negro, but to the white citizen, is frequently
entirely defeated by this exclusion If a
white man owe negro debt, in many and
indeed in most cases, he cannot collect it,
Imprisonment for debt has been abolished,
except in cases of fraud, for the white man,
but not for the negro; his body has to an.
swer for his obligations. He is deprived oi
redress against the white man, but the lawr
arm the white man with double power
against him.
If our Democrats" friends favor the re
construction policy of the President, they
must abandon their doctrine of closing tn,
Courts of Justice to negroes, or the man
ifestations of their appreciation will be oh
noxious to the charge of hypocrisy.

NORTH BRITISH REVIEW.

The last number OF this Quarterly opens
with an article on Mills Examination OF Sir
William IIamiton's Philosophy; and we are
furnished with glance of the views of Mr..
Mill on the principal philosophical questions
discussed in the writings of Hamilton
The work of Mills has been republished in
this country, and may here and there find a
scholar who is willing to devote the time
necessary to the study of it, but most readers
will be content with good review of the
book. Carlisle having completed his His
tory of Frederic the Great, it has become a
fruitful field for the reviewers, and in the
North British may be found an able and
profound view, not of the mere details o.
Frederic's life, but of the causes and polit
cal results of his acts The fourth article il

THE BLACK cone.

Some ten days since deputation from
South Carolina, seeking the pardon of Jeff.
Davis, had an interview with President
johnson, and after patient hearing, the
President entered into plain talk in rela-
tion to some things in the South, which
were preventing harmonious settlement of
their difficulties. He said,
lyon ask me for pardons have already
liberated on parole part of those in whose
behalf you invoke clemency; ! will see
what can be done as to the rest: now let me
ask you what progress your State is making,
Ngr likely 10 make, in securing to her Black
people the common rights of manhood, but
especially the rights to sue and be sued in
your Sourts, and to give testimony thereingn
This was home thrust but it showed to
the deputation the position of the President
on one point of his reconstruction policy
From the published report of that interview,
we make the following extract
"The President thought many of the evils
would disappear if they inaugurated the
right system. Pass laws protecting the co.
lored nan in his person and property, and he
can collect his debts He knew how it was
in the South. The question when first pre-
sented of putting colored man on the wit
ness stand, made them shrug their shoulders
But the colored mans testimony was to be
taken for what it was worth by those who
examined him, and the Jury who hear il.
Alter all, there was not so much danger in
this as was supposed Those coming ont ol
Slavery cannot do without work; they can.
not lie down in dissipation; they must work;
they ought to understand that liberty means
simply the right to work and enjoy the pro
ducts of labor, and that the laws protect
them. That being done, and when We
come to the period to feel that men must
work or starve, the country will be prepared
to receive system applicable to both Whit.
and Bldek-prepared to receive system
necessary to the case. A short time back
you could not enforce the vagrant law on the
Black, but could on the White man. But
get The public mind right, and yOu can trea
6otb alike. Let US get the general principles
right, and the details and collaterals will
follow"
In other words, the President not only
wants slavery abolished, hut he insists, thai
the Southern States shall extend to the Freed
men those civil rights necessary to the pro.
lection of persons and property. In other
words, that what is known as the "Black
Code" shall be buried in the same grave
with Slavery. =--.
We have in this State some democratic
politicians, who profess to be delighted with
the reconstruction policy of President John.

their sincerity, by adopting that policy in
