anu am 'Ae of the Commissioners of the
Chancery Court Of Louisville. am a.. e.
qualnted with J. Il. Dennis, one Of the wit
nesses ioi the defense. ] have known him
loT. zen or even years. He is gentleman
Of pad reputation for truth-or. SO I learn
from various parties who knep, him before 1
did. l would not believe him on oath. in a
case IN which Mr.. Henderson was concern
edi nor do know if I would believe him In
aay other case.
Cross examined BY defense: I once had a
quarrel with ennis, about the statements
made by him regarding the railroad man
agement Of Gen. Boyle, and Mr.. Hender-
son. That is the only quarrel / ever had
with him. ence had free pass on Mr..
Henderson's railroad, for nsing my infu-
enee ia getting property holders to consent
TO the location Of the road, but ! never
had quarrel with Dennis regarding II.
l never did like Mr.. Dennis; have told
Mr.. Henderson 80. This is because Of his
bad management Of thesrosd. DR.. Sherral
and DR.. Randolph were the parties who
told me Of Mr.. Dennis bad character. 7
also heard Ar. B. +. Cooper say that, in a
suit he once had Mr.. Dennis swore falsely.
/ heard q preacher, Mr.. Smith, say that
Dennis had cheated him out Of IS. have
heard the genteel employees Of the railroad
say Mr.. Dennis would lie, and one Of these
was my son, who is now dead. / never saw
Mr.. Dennis drink, but do not know that he
does not get drunk. I am not on spea king

preacher.

with Mr.. Dennis; we have always had
the best Of feelings between as. 1
have heard Mr.. Erich, Mr.. GosnelI and
others speak of his bad character. Mr..
Dennis and myself both live in Louisville.
Mr.. Dennis is a married man. / never

Mr.. Dennis character. Mr.. Dennis is a
member Of the Methodist Episcopal Church
but as to his standing do not know. am
a member Of the Same denomination with
Mr.. Dennis, but go to different meeting
house.
Question by the Court: / would hesitate
to believe Mr.. Dennis on oath if interested;
but | will not say | would not believe him
circumstances would determine my judg-
ment. l have had some business transac-
tions with him, but my opinion was not

proved his dishonesty.

NEW ORLEANS CORRESPONDENTS.

Mr.. EDITOR: To report the nation S
cause Alright is the duty of every la
borer in the vineyard universal. We
find ourselves in this city working
with our might in the admirably
graded governmental schools. This
department perhaps had no fees in
this respect of supporting hundreds
of teachers in their glorious work of
instructing in their climbing toward
manhood thousands of freed children.
Suddenly crisis has burst upon us.
This pecuniary aid from the Freed
mans Bureau is withdrawn, and now
400 of these little Creoles are playing
on the bankette in this city, because
they are too poor to pay the 81 90 a
piece to come to school, and over one
hundred teachers make much ado
about something. We are all looking
toward Aurora's rise, Macawbcr like,
for something to turn up.
We have some excellent schools
here. The Gen. Baird, formerly su-
perintended by that gifted, eccentric
genius, D. P. B. Randolph, not long

ago gave an entertainment in the New
Orleans Theatre. 1t was a grand tri-
umph on the part of these youths,
which wrung plaudits even from the
New Orleans Picayune The superb
scenes, taubleaux, declamations and
songs were many of them written by
the doctor for that occasion, which
was honored by the presence of Gene
rails Sherman, Sheridan, and Baird.
The Fred. Douglass School, form
erly superintended by that very excel
lent Instructor, Mr.. Geo. T. Raby, of
Maine, and now by your scrib'er, is
held in building formerly known as
the slave pen We use the auction
block for globe stand, and those
walls that reyerberated only to the
slaves cry, how're echo freedom glad
song. We are gratified to acknow-
ledge various exhibitions of courtesy
on the part of that faithful advocate
of equity, in fact, the most so in the
department., we mean the n. 0. Tri-
! bune.
We can but admire the position
taken by the intelligent Creoles of
this city. They demand uncondition-
al suffrage; they ask permission only
to control their own interests educa-
tional, and know no cringing toward
the whites, whether they be stained"
or otherwise. We regret, however,
that they hold all Northern reformers
on probation.
You are aware that New Orleans is
real Catholic city. We were forci-
bly, reminded of descriptions of i'm
perial Rome at the breaking up Of the
carnival on the 18th of February,
which was " Marui Gras" 1t was
celebrated alike by the parvenu,
whether white or black, and the hevl
ellie ''to the manor born" each in
masks. The representations in most
costly costumes of the styles Of Louis
XIV, of Highland chiefs and ladies,
Of kings and queens, and of Freed
mems Bureau, and the dandy, a Ia sable
the latter being the most popular,
were truly most taking In the even
ing the famous :" Mystick Krewe," of
classic origin, paraded the streets with
their weird dress and meandering
sweep, ending the carnival preparatory
to the leaden Lent. Could you have
witnessed the way many of these
participators masked themselves
You probably know of the five per
cent. tax on freedmens wages for the
education of their children, and kin
dred matters, so we say az revosr. 4 .-''

free conversation it was unanimously
agreed to suggest to the Kentucky
Conference to admit such colored
members as might be suitable for the
charges. There are two ways as I
understand, of meeting the case: l.
After receiving the brethren to trans
fer to either Of the colored Confer
ences already organized in the East.
2. To form them into colored dis
tricts, to be under the general super
mtendence of white presiding elder !;
to graduate them into full member
ship by the next General Conference.
Now, of the two ways of disposing
of the case, my mind preponderates
in favor of the latter. There will be,
| suppose, difference Of opinion in
regard to the matter. Some will want
to know how this will affect the world
around us, My opinion is, that we
should not be careful to enquire how
this measure is to be received or re
garded by this or that party. The
main thing is to do right. Mr.. Wes-
ley it was, think, who said, "God
save the Church from what they call
o. =
prudence prudence that would
keep the Church from doing right,
because somebody would be offended.
We should do right, should exercise
wise discretion, and not be troubled
about what they will think and say
down in the land Of Dixie.
1t is better to inquire, What will
God approve? what is right, all the
circumstances considered? We know
who will be offended and who will
not be offended. All pro slavery
rebels will denounce it; but all loyal
Methodist hearts from Boston to San
Francisco, and from Mackinaw to
East Tennessee, would he made sor-
roWful.
Following the Bishop, Rev. W. G..
Dandy thought there was misaprre-
hension in regard to the matter.
There was really no division of senti-
ment in the Conference. They were
disposed to accept the facts, and the
leadings of Providence, and are ready
for the vote. AS for himself, he fully
and heartily accorded with all that
Bishop Morris had said.
On the vote being called there was
not dissenting voice. Besides Rev
Hanson Talbot, Rev. Henry Fl Lytle,
Rev. George Denning, Rev. Adam
Bryant, and Rev. Nelson Saunders,
also colored, were admitted on trial.

Never Get Angry.

Never getangry. Itdoes no good!
Some sins have seeming compcrsa-
ton of apology, a present gratifica.
ton of some sort; but anger has
none. A man feels no better for it.
1t is really q torment and, when the
storm of passion has cleared away, it
leaves one to see that he has been q
fool in the eyes of others too. Who
thinks IL ofill-natured churlish man,
who has to be approached in the most
guarded and cautious way? Who
wishes him for a neighbor or part
ner in business? He keeps all about
him in the same state of mind as
if they were living in the neigh
borhood ofa hornets nest, or a rabid
animal. And, as to prosperity in
business, one gets along no better for
being angry What if business is
perplexing and everything goes by
contraries +? Will fit of passion
make the winds more propitious,
ground more favorable? Will bad
temper draw customers, pay debts,
and make creditors better natured 4

The colored Tennessean., 1866-03-24

The apprehension that the negroesa
in their freed condition, will incorti
nently rush into the abyss of poverty,
has not been realized in Alexandria,
Virginia, at least. A recent census Of
that city shows colored population
of 1852, of whom 5,053 were slaves
in 1860. These freed people now own
property valued at 100000, and if
not interfered with during the coming
wear will double it. +ff'5 h9 tfli
