D1sloyal CIergyrale1..

1t is but a little while since we were
told, by nssG who had been regularly or
dained as minister of the gospel, that any
man who opposed the policy of the Prcsi-
dent Of the United States was opposing
the Government, and that such opposition,
or even speaking disrospectiully of the
President, was treason If those men
spoke truly then, how utterly disloyal some
of them now are, may be seen from the
following specimens clipped from the
Boston papeisi

AMAIGAMATIoN AS sEKN IN THE
DANCE HALLS OF BosToN. local
of the Boston Post in describing the
dance halls of that city, paints vivid pic
lures of vice. Here is his account of one
he entered. There were many others
ike it, but we select this as a specimen :
Passing into the Gaace hall, We found
quite company present tripping the
light fantastic toe to- the music Of a
piano forte with violin accompaniment.
This hall is about sixty feet deep, and is
fitted up with considerable taste. The
walls are hung with pictures, real and
fancy, and to give patriotic cast to the
whole, the names of all the Presidents
and the names of the principal battles in
which Massachusetts colored regiments
have served, are printed in golc, and re-
lieve the sameness of the dingy walls.
But the scene here presented by those
participating In the social dance" is not
only novel but disgusting Young, good
looking white girls and negroes, black as
lamp black, mingle and com-mingle in
the dance, and embrace each other with
seeming tenderness of spirit. The tall,
athletic specimen of the genuine African,
with great gusto and enthusiasm, Whirls
the young white woman in the may
dance, aud at the signal to promenade for
drinks, escorts her to the bar and treats
her to tumbler of spruce beer and some
peanuts. This scene is revolving in the
extreme to one accustomed to respectable
society, but it Is practiced here, in this
mixed company, nearly every night in the
year. Familiarity knows no restraints.
All are on level, aud we have here a
perfect illustration of the theory Of negro
equality at the expense Of white woman's
virtue and respect.
