UNBLUsHING lMPUDENcE.-In the
new State of Colorado there are as ne
groes in all, and these 46, ora portion OF
them, have petitioned Congress, through
their "mouth piece" Senator Sumner
not to admit Colorado as State, because
the whites, some 34,23l, will not permit
them to vote, and will not place them on
an equality with them-the whites. II
the whites of Colorado, where the Repub-
icans are in the ascendant, fear the innu-
ence OF negro otes, how much more
should the citizens of this District fear
their dark influence, where there arc thou
sands, and Of the most degraded and de-
PRAYED character

The Lieutenant General Fond of Horses

"Pelley," the correspondent of the
Boston Journal, writes from Washington
as follows:
About a fortnight ago as the Lieutenant
General was driving over from George
town to Washington, butchers cart
drawn by grey horse came up alongside
at a fast gait. Now, the Lieutenant
General has weakness for fast horses
and for fast travelling, so he spoke to his
horse "Cincinnutus," expecting 10 give
the meat wagon the go-by easily.
"But the grey nag pclted away, and,
although the Lieutenant General and
'Cipcinnatus, tried to fight it out Oh that
line they were beaten in going block,
and distanced before having reached the
second cross street. From that moment
the c, nqueror Of tho rebellion determined
to own the nag that had out,trotted Gin
cinnatus, and all of his personal friends
were soon enlisted in the movement to
purchase the unknown steed.
Chadwick, mine host of Wilard'S
Hotel, was the fortunate discovercr OF the
gallant grey, which, on a quiet trial,
proved faster than the experienced eye
Of the Lieutenant General had supposed.
The nag had been bought at sale of
condemned horses, but was obtained
of its owner fer $3.50. Hcnceforth, in
stead Of plodding along with a load of
meat or cabbage the grey trottor will be

A WONDERFUL CHANGE.-In August
last, at the State election in Kentucky,
John Siroube, radical candidate for the
Legislature in Bracken county, was cleo
ted by aid of bayonets, placed at every
precinct in the county. His majority
was tCenty-ihree. The election was con-
tested by VIM. H. Reynolds, the Demo-
cratic opponent of Stroube, on the ground
of military interference. The Legislature
declared the seat of the latter vacant, and
the two candidates run the race over on
Saturday last. There Uere no bayonets at
the polls this time. Behold the result -
Reynolds is elected by Seuen hundred
majority. Again we are led to exclaim,
$50 much for free elections"

The Test Oa' h.

Our Washington correspondence has
indicated that the decision in the case of
Garland before the United States Su-
preme Court, would be to the effect that
the act of Congress prescribing the test
oath of loyalty is unconstitutional. Aud
it has been intiinatcd in some quarters
that it was for this reason that Mr.. Thad-
deus Stevens moved in the House of Repre-
sentatives for the repeal of 10 much of
this oath as applies to lawyers, and would
prevent them practising before the Su.
preme Court. We have ourselves regard
ed this as concession, honestly made, but
one of the New York journals says that
in fact it is merely throwing away part of
the oath to save the rest, when otherwise
the whole will be lost. 1t is moved
therefore, to repeal the point which has
brought the question into the Supreme
Court, and so stihe justice and keep GER
tain Southern men under disability
which cannot b. sustained whenever
fairly brought up for decision. Altogeth-
er, if the presentations on the subject be
true, it is a most diScreditablc piece of
partizan strategy to avoid direct issue
before the highest tribunal of the land, of
which honest, manly adhercnts of ether
side of question will never be found
guilty San.
