COMFORTABLE TO THINK ABOUT
In the event the Supreme Court
of the United States does not pro.
nounce the late Civil Rights bill
unconstitutional, the Abolitionists
will be as apt to "sip sorrow" from
it, as any Of those who have been
opposed to its passage; for it is
said, that the refusal of a Justice
to marry a black man and a white
woman, or the refusal of a hotel
keeper to lodge or feed negro, or
of a church to sell a pew to a ne
gro, subjects (by the provision of
the bill,) the offending party to a
fine of $1,000, or imprisonment,
or both.
Men who are SO debased as to vote
for the passage of such a bill, de-
serve to be closeted with negroes
for the residue of their lives, or
sent to Dry Tortugas, OF to To

A Pregnant Inquiry.

Mr.. Ross, a member of Con-
gress from Pennsylvania, in late
speech in the House of Represent
tatives, put the following query to
Thad. Stevens & CO., who hold
that the Southern States are out
of the Union in consequence of
the war. He said:
eff these eleven States actually
are out of the Union, why were
some of their Representatives re-
tanned In Congress, without objec-
ton, after the passage of their or
Idinances of secession and during
the prosecution of the war? In
August, 1861, Congress imposed a
direct tax on these eleven States
of between five and six million
dollars, which recognized them as
being in the Union. In March,
1852, in apportioning representa-
ton among the States, fifty-seven
members were assigned to the elev-
en- States whose Representatives
are now excluded from this hall.
Why apportion them Representa-
tives in Congress if they were out
lof the Union?"
Not one of the Radicals found
it convenient to answer these in
terrogatories.

The "Boston Herald" says:
"The first person sworn on the jul
ry now trying John Gallagher for
murder, is colored man, j. B.
Bailey, well known as a teacher
of the art of selfdefence, and the
person chiefly instrumental in se-
curing the passage of a law by the
present Legislature, to punish the
exclusion of colored men from
places Of amusement. The fea-
ture is noticeable, as it is probably
the first time a colored man has
sat on a jury on capital case in
this country"

The first case under the civil
rights bill happened in Lexington,
KY, on Monday. A negro man,
impelled by the consciousness of
newly acquired rights, went into
one of the first hotels, and seating
himself at the table, called for din

out several times, and the negro
refused to obey. The proprietor
beat him over the head severely,
and elected him from the house.

last year, paying tax to govern

Dark Day in Buenos Ayres

Accounts from Buenos Ayres
state that the city was visited
March 10Th by an awful storm and
darkness, equaling that of the ia.
nous "dark days" of New Eng.
land history in May, 1850. The
storm and darkness in Buenos
Ayres are thus described:
The city was visited by an awful
storm on the 18th inst, which has
not been equaled in violence since
that Of 1905. A hurricane Of
dust was succeeded by total dark
ness, and the city seemed threat
ened with total destruction. A
complete panic reigned among the
population. Mothers sought their
children in vain, and the scene in
the coffee houses and clubs battle
description. The hotels were
crowded, but no lights could be
|obtained, and the confusion and
alarm were thus increased. Sever
al houses were blown down, and
every building in the town shaken
to its foundation. The loss i'll the
river was very severe, and many
persons were drowned. The rail.
way stations were destroyed. and
great damage was done to private
property.

The National htclliyencer says
that a suit has been instituted by
negro against the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad Company, for refu-
sing to sell him a ticket for pass
age In a frst-class car. 1t also
says that Forney, the editor of the
Washington City Chronicle, "has
set the social example Of receiving
negroes at his mansion, where he
entertained them in the style of
luxuriance usual with him."
We have already noted the fact
that the House of Congress has
passed a bill to amend the organ.
ic acts of the Territories of Ne
braska, Colorado, Dakotah, Mon.
tana, Washington, Idaho, Arizona,
Utah and New Mexico, which
contains the following as its ninth
section, Wig;
"That within the Territories
aforesaid there shall be no denial
of the elective franchise to citi.
zens of the United States because
of race or color, and all persons
shall be equal before the law; and
all acts or parts of acts either of
Congress or of the legislative as.
seinblies of the Territories afore-
said inconsistent with the provis.
ions of this act are hereby declared
null and void"
A motion was made by LIE
Blond, of Ohio, to strike out this
section of the bill, but his motion
was lost by strict party vote
the Radicals voting to retain the
negro suffrage section, and the
Democrats voting against it.
1t may be asked what all this
means. Wendell Phillips in a re-
cent speech tells US. He says:
"Negro suffrage meant score
of negro congressman sitting in
the House of Representatives,
1t means colored Senators in Co.
lumbia. 1t means negro represen-
ta.ives sharing in making railroad
laws and other laws. 1t means So
cial equality, and that was where
the Southerner met the question.
Social equality follows hard on the
heel of the ballot-box, and the
South knows it, and she resists ne
gro suffrage for what must follow
it.
We suppose social equality of
white and blacks at the North will
follow negro suffrage, as we'll as at
the South. And, we suppose,
that is really what the Radicals
of Congress are working for.
