Defeat Of the Bounty Equalization Act

The aot for cqualizlng the bounty
to soldiers, which passed the House,
all tho union men volt q therefor
and all the copperhead members op-
posing, has been defeated in the Sen
ate. In the latter body all the dem
ocratc members opposed the oquali-
cation, afd all the Johnson Senators.
A few Of the Union Senators also
voted against, and helped to defeat
it because they couldn't have their
way about some unimportant part.

Death From Worms ON the Brnin.

Lately lady named Clara Hollands, aged
seventeen years, died suddenly at Brighton,
England. A post mOrtem examination
was made by DR.. Swell, who showed that
there was considerable effusion in the right
ventricle of the brain. in which he discOv-
cred large hydatid cist. This he found to
consist Of the ova or eggs of some parasitic
insect. For the presence of this Mr..
Sewell could not account The disease was
of rare occurrence, but when it had occur
red recorded cases showed that death had
been sudden. The insects were usually
conveyed into the system with food and
after depositing their eggs they left the
system. In course of time the eggs are
hatched, and death ensuCs if it has not TAX
en- place before. The disease was often
communicated to the system by eating
"measly" pork, underdone meat, or water
creases; and Mr.. sewell said that it was a
very popular error to suppose that under
done meat was the pest for food. Should
the meat be infected, heat was the only
thing that would kill the insects, and there
was therefore no danger in well cooked
meat. The jury rendered verdict in ac-
cordance with the decision of Mr.. Sewell.

and Results of the InVesIiga ion.
From the Now York journal Of Commerce.

lfTOm Jne NeW lOTh JOuTndl OF commerce
The testimony taken by the British Royal
Commission in Jamaica, which is eXamln-
ing into the history of the late revolt, while
it leaves exceedingly uncertain as yet the
question how far the plot for rebellion eX-
tended among the negroes, reveals in strong
light the fact that the freedmen of that is
land are wholly unfit for elf-government.
No one can read the evidence without per-
ceiving the conclusive nature of its bearing
on this point. 1t was a point, indeed, which
did not concern the Commission, and to
which they gave no attention, and the evil
dence on this subject was for that reason
not direct, but is all the more forcible and
convincing.
One OF the remarkable features of the
testimony relates to thecredulty of the ne
groes. They seem to believe any story,
however improbable and foolish. Hence,
constant excitement can be kept up among
them by designing men. Runners that the
Queen had sent them shiplOads of presents,
had ordered the lands to he divided among
them,' had done this and that impossible
thing, not only spread as rumors, but were
instantly adopted and believed by the
whole colored population, Various WITT
nesses testified that common belief pre-
vailed among them that $ liberty Of person
carried with it liberty OF land, and that the
Queen had given them the lands when sh &
gave them freedom" The custom of pilfer-
ing amopg them is described by witnesses
as almost unitersal. They steal everything
they can lay hands on In the way of pro5
visions and the produce of the soil-steal-
ing from one another as much as from the
whites, M Farming is described as almost
impracticable in some districts on account
of this practice. ." 9' 'hn-
Among the witnesses examined, was
Rev. r. Ward, who is described as q, color
ed man, formerly q slave in America, who
had escaped and been in England, He
said "the people were credulous and truth
less, and if you told Shem they were starv-
ing they would be very much inclined to
believe you even If they were well to do"
He said that. $50 far as he could perceive,
the laborers had not much, to complain, OF
respecting the administration of Justice.

enough that there are bad white men. as
well as black, and that these same vices
prevail among the whites. But the re-
markable character of this testimony is its
sweeping natNre. The witnesses speak of
a whole race as developing these marked
characteristics. The exceptions only
strengthen the rule.

that because people are black, even if ig-

considered more fit forsuflrage than if they

under any circumstances, the blacks, as q race,
are capable Of an eUen ciUilizdtiOn lcih the

Why? Are they interior to negroes? The
Puritans of Massachusetts declared them
fit for slavery, and bought and sold them
with the blacks, justifying themselves by
reference TO the Divine law. But as time
progressed the idea seems to have taken
hold of their descendants that a black skin
fits one for freedom and equality, while u
copper colOred skin fits one only for slaYe-
ry or servility. The North American Indi-
ans are not fit for self-government to-day.

The great issue before the people is,
whether all the powers of Government
shall be concentrated in the hands of the
General GOvernment-the States being re-
duced to the condition of connties-and a
consolidated despotism be thereby estab-
lished; or, whether those rights of local
self-government which our fathers enjoy
ed and which we inherited from them, and
without which there can be no real liberty,
no wise government, no public economy,
no light taxation, shall be preserved
a powerful faction, represented bya ma
jority in Congress, have conspired to over
throw the free and beneficent institutions
of our fathers, and to substitute therefor an
Oligarchy of privileged classes, crushing
the mass Of the people and all individual
liberty, under the weight of despotic and
unrestricted General Government. To eff
feet this object they, in plain violation of
the Constitution, exclude eleven States
from representation in Congress, and insist
upon comforting upon negroes the right
to vote-not out OF regard to the negro,
but because they expect to be able,
with their money, to control his vote, and
thereby perpetuate their party ascendeney.
Let every man who is opposed to the
schemes Of the conspirators, who cherishes
the institutions founded by our fathers,
who appreciates the necessity and benefits
of local self government, who is opposed to
seeing the great State of Ohio shorn of her
dignity and reduced to the dependent coma
ditiOn OF county, or who is opposed to
Negro Suffrage join with the Democracy
