It shocks the refined and cultivated feel
ings of the Sanduskg Register that The
OHIO STATESMAN, the Central Organ OF
the Ohio Democracy" as i'll pleased to
call it, pertinaciously claims for the White
race pre-eminence in intellect over the
Black race, and, therefore, insists that the
White race should direct and control the
various departments of Government.
At the risk of further shocking the sem
sitiveness of the Register, wewill not admit
that "hod-carrers, as a class, are mentally
inferior to college professors as class."-
Tue college professors may be superior in
the matter of education and requirements,
and yet for strong, good common sense,
may be inferior to hod-carriers. We don't,
however, propose to argue this question.
1t may afford the editor of the Register sat
isfactlon to disparage his race, especially
that portion of it that are not ''cOllege pro-
fessors." Such work is not to our taste.
We are proud of the race to which we be-
long, and shall on all befitting occasions
advocate the interests of that race. ...t

Every lover of music will be agreeably
surprised to learn that the Bateman Con-
cert Troupe will make their appearance in
this city on next Saturday evening at the
Opera House. The press all over the coun-
try speak In terms of the highest praise of
their concerts. On their recent visit to
Cincinnati, the Enquirer holds the following
language:
"We were not In error In annonncing the
certainty of o fashionable ovation TO the
distinguished artists who comp ise this

of Cincinnati was represented, and the

Nebraska and Colorado stand knocking
at the doors Of Congress for admission into
the Union as States. Their population is
inadequate. This, however, is no serious
impedinent to their admission. The great
obstacle in the way is the Introduction of
Negro voting in their respective Constitu-
tfons. 1t Is doubtful whether they will be
admitted until they shall first have amend
ed their Constitutions doing away with
the distinction between Whites and Blacks.

Exci,Inw Affair In n Cemetery.

An exciting affair occurred at certain
cemetery, on the Western Reserve, on Mon
day nigi.t la { We have been permitted to
publish the particulars Of the case, provid-
| ing we suppress names and location. A
we lthy resident, in the vicinity, lost love-
| ly, and only daughter last week, under Pc
culiar circumstances. She was a young lady
about sixteen years of age, aud had al
ways presented the very picture Of robust
health. One day she returned home from
school, and, after chatting pleasantly about
the house for a few moments, suddenly COM
planned of dizziness and languor; In an in
slant later, sinking down upon the sofa, and
expiring. Shortly after the young lady had
been inferred, vague rumors reached the
fathers ear that some medical students,
whose curiosity had been greatly excited by
the circumstances attending her death. and
who were anxious to learn, through a post
mortent examination, the cause thereof, were
intending to resurrect the body, on a GER
tain night. Both Mortified and euraged at
the bare idea-althOugh scarcely crediting
the truth of the report-the farther armed
himself with a double -barreled fOwling
piece, and stationed himself near his daugh-
ter's grave, on the night in question, to
guard it against the threatened violation.
A monument. over which dropped a weep
ing willow, hid him from view, while, from
his place OF concealment, he could see any
object that might approach the grave, Ow-
ing to the bright moon that sailed overhead.
Nine, ten, eleven, twelve O'Clock came, and
no oresurrectionists. He began to think that
his credulity had got the better of him, and
that, after all, his daughter would be allowed
to rest In her grave, when footsteps weresud
denly heard approaching. Crouching down
closely beside the monument, and peering
cautiously out. he was Mortified at seeing
three men approach, and halt by the grave
of his loved one. They were provided with
picks, shovels, a rope, and large oil cloth
sack. Their horrid object could not be mis-
taken, when two of them commenced to
dig into the grave. The fathers blood al
most froZe in his veins at the sight; but he
was firm in his determination to wreak
vengeance on the would-be body-snatchers.
Cooking both barrels OF his gun, and taking
deliberate aim. he discharged both OF them
at the men who were digging at the instant
their bodies were closely together. One of
the men fell to the ground, but was quickly
raised up by the Others, who hurried with
him from the cemetery as quickly as they
could--one of them limping, as though
badly hurt. The three then rode away in
a wagon. The father did not give chase
thinking that he had punished them enough
for their conduct. u. e.
The affair has caused great excitement
In the vicinity. 1t is not known who the
would-be resurrectiOnists were-the ut
most mystery enveloping them. Public
sympathy entirely sides with the father

DIR McCracken was called TO the National

very violently attacked with what appear

time complaining Of unpleasant sensations
in the interior arrangements, and, subse-
quently, we learn that fourteen persons In
the hotel were also violently attacked, al
though all are now reported to be conva-
lesceDt. 1t is the opinion of physicians that
this difficulty arises from the che e,e which
