MWdoch.-It is unnecessary for US to
urge our people to be present at MUIR
doch's Readings at Overman's Hall on
Saturday evening; without any urging,
the probability is that full as many as
can be accommodated will be on hand.
Those who wish to make sure of access
to the hall SHOULD secure reserved seats,
for sale at the Postoffice. About
one hundred have already been
taken. The sale will close ut o'clock
p. NJ. tomorrow. The Committee have
made arrangements to seat all the hall
will decently hold, having procured of
! circuit Bros. "a large number of chairs
for that purpose. Therefore those who
! do not take reserved seats need not fear
OF being obliged to stand up; unless,
indeed, the hall should be over-crowded,
in which event of course the last come
would be last served. -.
A treat of this character was never
rendered to our citizens before, and
those who do not avail themselves of
the opportunity will regret it in the flu
ture. a few public-spirited gentlemen
guaranteed Mr.. Murdoch's pay (Sl25),
and invited him to come. 1t is not ex-
pected that any thing will be made
from the entertainment above the ex-
penses.
Last Sabbath evening this dsting-
uished elocutonist gave an entertain
ment, consisting of sacred readings and
rectations, in Chicago, for the benefit
of the poor of that city. The Republi-
can says there We're about twelve hun
dred present, representing the most in
telligent classes. That paper speaks
| highly of the entertainment, and says
the readings "were given with great
d, power and depth of feeling" Mr..
Murdoch meets with unqualified appro-
baton wherever he goes. In Dubuque
his entertainment was so popular that
he was prevailed upon to fill another
engagement, which he did last evening.
Be sure and hear Murdoch and to he
sure apply for seatsimmediately Tick

well known that anatlonal edlhce. Of the same
character and purpose, was begun at the
Federal Capital many years since, a1d Is still
standing, in ragged incompleteness, right under
the shadow Of the very walls within which the
Congress Of the Republic daily assemblesP
Why, then, should it be supposed IOr mo-
ment that bridge across one Of our mira
mural rivers should be built in a hrefer period
than the whole people Of the United States
can erect one complete monument to Wash
ington? The idea is simply preposterous.
1t is not, Of course, our purpose to blame
any one particularly, for the unreasonable
rapidity with which tie work on the Chestnut
Street Bridge has been pushed ahead. Where
so many are concerned in the rash impetu-
osity with which the "Job' is being showed
to completion, It would he unfair, as it GER
tainly is impossible, to say who is in fault.
The City Surveyor and the City Councils
have repeatedly tried to solve the mystery,
without success; and it surely would be pre-
sumptuous were we to attempt to unravel
the enigmas which have proved too hard for
their acute inquisitios. The subject, how
ever, is worthy of close Investigation and we
may yet discover for the public benefit why
it is that those engaged in building the bridge
are hurrying the work so precipitately to a
conclusion.

"A wag in Appleton, Wis, supplied farmer

raised about II, 900, 900 comely mellon stalks.
The Chicago Republican says OF the winter
season in the Northwest that 1t has been fav0ra-
BILE to al interests. The protracted autumn
weather gave an excellent opportunity for the
completion of outdoor work on the farm and
in building operations. Once begun, the winter
has been very steadily maintained as close

monetor, while there has not been q sufficient
weight of sno " TO constitute u blockade for more

at all upon other winter occupations. Through
out the country the farmers have had umimpeded
access to the timber land and swamps, aud
from all quarters we learn that unusually large
quantities OF loes have been got out. In the
lumber regions proper there has been snow
enough to favor and not enough to impede
the logging gangs. There has been q longer
than the usual period of sic CHING in the North
west and far more than the customary amount
yielded by like quantity of snow.

The Opinion of the Hon. Joseph T..
Brown, of Georgia.
A NUMBER of the members of the Legisla-
ture Of Georgia have written letter to
Ex-Governor JOSEPH e. BROWN, OF that
State, requesting his views "as to the legisla-
ton which Is proper, under existing circum-
stances, relative TO the fieedmen." To this
appeal Mr.. BROWN has written a sensible and
powerful reply, which will compare most
favoraby with any of his previous produc-
tions During the war the Governor OF
Georgia acquired a reputation which was
rather anomalous in its character. The ex-
treme eccentricity OF his public acts, combined
with the doubt which enveloped his political
sentiments, made him rather the object of
wonder than admiration. He kept himself
continually before the popular eye, for the
curious were specializing as to what would be
his new vagary. The conquest of treason
has acted like a charm to dispel the clouds of
doubt which has obscured his brain; and as the
insane are frequently restored to reason by
being led to the top of high mountain, and
taxing in at one glance so wide and grand an
expanse Of country, so has Mr.. BROWN been
made sensible by one long look from the
height of freedom.
The gist Of his whole letter is contained in
the concluding paragraph
al think it unwise and lniudicious for the
Legislature TO pass any FresdnIdn's Oode or any
other law that discriminates between the races,
so far as rights and remedies in our Courts are
concerned. short statute extending the pro-
visions OF the penal code OF this Stale so as to
embrace all persons of African descent, and eX-
tending to them all The civil rights in our Courts
enjoyed by white persons except the righG to sit
in the jury box, together with the same rights
OF marriage rs between persons of their own
color, and the same rights Of inheritance, with
| the same laws OF guardianship, apprenticeship,
etc. is all the legislation relative to them which
| is expedient or proper"
Here there is good common sense. He does
not like the combination of events which has
placed the black man on legal equality with
the white yet, when such an event is IRENE
diable, he bows to it as necessity, and
recommends that they act as sound thinking
men, and not as hot-blooded boys. Let the
proper protection be given to the blacks; let
the suggestion OF Mr.. BROWN be acted upon,
and to the State of Georgia will be awarded
the praise due to reason, and the prosperity
which ever follows in the path Of wise legis-
lation.
