I God must needs come, but which, having con
tinued through His appointed time, Lie now
wills TO remove, and then he gives to both
| North ann South this terrible war as the woe
due to those by whom the offense comes, shall
we discern that there is any departure from
those divine attributes which the believers in q
living God always ascribe to him2 Fondly do
we hope, fervently do we pray that this mighty
scourge of war may speedily pass away; yet,
If God wills that it continue until all the wealth
piled by the bondman's two hundred and fifty
years of threquted toll shall besunk, and until
every drop of blood drawn with the lash shall
be paid by another drawn with the sword, as
was said three thousand years ago, so still it
must be said that tie judgements OF the Lord
are true and righteous, although with malice
toward none, with charity for all, with firmness
in the right, as God gives us to see the right,
let us strive to finish the work. We are to bind
up the nations wounds and care for him who
shall have borne the battle, and for his widow
and for his orphans, to do all which may
achieve and cherish just and asting peace
among ourselves, and with all nations.

Anticipated Eoacuation of Acknowledgement
abandonment Of Petersburg.
New York, March. The Worlds
Army of the Potomac special says there
is every indication ofa panic in Rich
mond. Old Senators and members of the
House are fleeing, until there is barely a
quorum in Congress to transact business.
This has been hushed up, but now the
Richmond papers openly allude to the
fact, and call on military authorities to
bring the fugitives back by force.
Roger A. Pryor and Gen. Singleton
were to pass up the James on Tuesday,
P. M, by flag Of truce in company with
Mrs. Gen. Helm and Mrs. Major Pratt,
wives of rebel officers.
A very important movement is now
making by Gen. Lee believed to be the
evacuation of Richmond.
The Tribune's Washington special says
a letter from the Army of the James
gives currency to the report brought in
by deserters that Petersburg is evacuated
and the fortifcations around the city,
looking to It's abandonment.

SYMPTOMS OF THE OPENING OF FNAvIaATIoH.-
A stroll along the dock puts one in possess
ion of a number of hints suggesting the
speedy opening Of navigation. In the first
place, and preliminary to all, the river is
clear of ice. The whole mass passed down,
Saturday afternoon, and out into the lake,
bearing along piles Of unsightly filth which
had been fshed up from the river bottom,
and left, as well as accumulations thrown
from the wharf, and an endless amount of
drift wood, large quantities of which were
secured by skilful fishermen of wood sta
toned on the dock. The passage of the ice
and Lockwood did little or no damage.
Another sign Of the awakening life is the
repairing Of docks, and the opening Of
warehouses to the light and air. Many
houses of business on the dock were open
yesterday, and wOrkmen hanging around
the doors seemed in lazy way to upbraid
by their Iistlsssness the torpidity of the
tied-up craft.
But the most lively symptom is the uni
versal clink of chisels and hammers on the
steamers and vessels, wOEkmsn being en-
gagged in calking new decks and sides as
well as old. A general activity rings
throughout the whole feet lying at the
docks and along the old River Bed.
Experienced men predict that the naYi-
cation season this year will begin earlier
than usual, and soon.

AN INCIDENT AT THE BRAIEARD HALL FIRE.

ridiculous because in close contrast with
things serious, was well illustrated by an in
cidentst the fire in Brsinard's Hall, Friday
night. Irish Billy -, who plies the
shoemaker's aWl in an establishment on
Superior street, and who is noted chiefly for
his extensive, FalstafiEn girth and high
number of pounds avoirdupois, accompa-
MED his wife to the Hibernicon on that
trying night. "BiIly" seemed to be enjoy
ing the painting and the singing immense
ly, when suddenly the alarm was given.
he immediately jumped up, tore off his
coat and, totally oblivious of his wife, took
q straight cut over seats and chairs for the
door, and drove like Jshu through the
crowd till he reached the street. Nor did
he stop there. His fright stung him on, as
the gad-hy drove the ill-fated 10, and he
tore up the street, taking bee-line for his
homo, three quarters of mile distant.
Pointing and perspiring, he rushed into
his house, hatless and cOatiess, and put to
his eldest daughter the frantic question,
Where is your mothef7" "Why, shs
went to the Hibernicon with you" Ejacu-
latinga a vigorous "Aaell," as he seemed to
come to state of semi-consciousness Of
himself and the situation, he rushed out and
made for the house of some relatives living
mile or so distant, and entreated them to
20 back with him to the hall, to pluck his
wife from the rninsI Meanwhile his wife
had made good her escape from the hall,
and gone home, escorted by friend, both
of them quite anxious to learn the wherea-
bouts and state of the gallant husband.

The Negro Case.
CIEvrLlxD, March 8, 1885

CLEvELAND, March 8, 1855.
Ems. LEADER:-I discovered in the Herald
of this evening q gross misrepresentation Of
the facts concerning the treatment received
by colored young man in the Academy
of Music at the hands of one of its officials,
and I cannot but think it springs from the
chronic prejudice of this paper against the
colored race.
The fscts of the case were these: A high
ly respectable young man, whom 1 had
known intimately in Washington, of most
exemplary manners, fine address, a gentle
man in his whole personal appearance,
and we'll educated, with straight hair and
sCircasslan mold of features, wish scarcely
enough African blood in his veins to be
recognized as belonging to that race, came
into this theatre, and purchased ticket
emitting him to any seat in the house, and
at the time OF purchasing it it was evident
that he was taken for a white man.
He took his seat in what is called the Dress
Circle, and soon the policeman Of the the
atre came in and ordered him to go back into
the third tier, OF to take back his money and
leave the theatre. He peremptorily refused
to do either, insisting that he had Alright to
be there. And upon this they seized him,
kicked him down stairs and thrust him out
of the house. This was the treatment in
ficted upon q young man who, I venture
to say, will compare fsTorably in moral
character and personal appearance with
any young man in the city. And all this
because he had the faintest possible tint Of
African blood in his veins. He was driven
out while the vilest Vsgabonds were allowed
TO remain.
dealt With this case precisely as would
had the editor of the Cleveland Herald been
subjected to the same treatment.

were attracted to the charmed spot.
We advise all lovers of art, and their

WILD Car RAILROAD s1orKs. Michigan,
which was famous in 'S7 times for Wild
Cat Banks, seems likely to get similar
notoriety n Railroad Stocks. Some of the
Eastern papers are ventilsting recent
transaction in which some Chicago opera
tors, it would seem, procured a law in
Michigan permitting directors of railroads
TO declare stock full paid for nominal con-
siderations. They then Matched up a
scheme in Michigan, and consolidated with
some bona tds roads in Illinois and Wis
consin, on the basis eff mutual full paid
stock, and are said to have made several
millions out of unsuspecting purchasers,
who now just begin to "smell mice"
Suits and applications for iDjunctions have
been commenced, and the lawyers will
have a good time out Of it. The success in
passing of the deception in this case will
doubtless tempt others to try the game,
and consequently the public will do well to
be on the lookout for "Bogus Railroad
Stocks" especially to scrutinizs any hailiDg
from Michigan.
