George F. Train ON Negro voting.

The eccentric George Francis Train, in q
letter to friend, thus comments upon the
proposition to extend the right of suffrage to
negroes He says to his friend
Consistency is jewel. You are consist
ent-so am /. Hence diamonds are trumps.
You prefer. the negroes i the Irish. /
know that you are honest-you know / am.
l court no mans vote-neither do YOU You
would not accept toffce-neither would l. Let
us shake hands, 1 favor the whites-you
the blacks. Ny philanthropy is homemade
yours lis imported. Golden; Bright and
Goldwin Smith are not our friends; neither
Exeter Hall nor Free Trade Hall should gov
ern American. The Irish have no defenders
the negroes many. Did the negroes build
our factories, foundries, canals; or railways !
The Indian has no vote, nor the California
Chinaman! Are they free and equal-men
and brethren ?r White New England wo-
men, brave, moral, intellectual women, have
no vote. Why? Are they not capable !!

rant African negro, should make laws to
govern her property? Again. we have a
million educated youths, between sixteen
and twenty-one, (many of them soldiers)
would you give the boorish plantation freed
men more political power than these enter
prising Americans possess?
You must stand by the working man 8
friend. He saTs let the States settle the
question. Twice, New York has said no,
and dozen more Northern States say no
Massachusetts having few negroes only said
yes recently.
You say the negroes were the only race
who proved loyal to the flag. Not SO. They
prolonged the war; they gave the enemy the
earliest information their knife cut both
ways; they took money on both sides their
most reliable spies were negroes. Four mil
lions of slaves loyal2 To whom? Their
masters? Yes; bat not to US. Otherwiset

TAR AND FEATHERING-Ir DoN'r Pay
In an action tried before the Supreme Judic-
ial Court at Salem, Mass, lately, Mr.. Geo.
w. Stone recovered damages to the amount
of $500 for injuries received at the hands Of
William Seger and other citizens of Swamp
scott, on the morning of the 10th of April
last, the day after the assassination of Presi-
dent Lincoln. It appeared that the plaintiff,
who was a house painter, was at work in
Swampseott, and was called upon by num-
Der of persons, inhabitants of Swampscott,
who told him that he had been heard to ex-
press his JOY at the news of the President s
death, and the regret that it had not occurred
three years before. As he failed TO make
satisfactory retraction or explanation, he was
taken from the house, marched some three
quarters of a mile to the postofice, and there
tarred and feathered. lie was then taken to
the town hall, where convention of teach
ers was being held, and finally was placed in
boat and dragged nearly a mile. There
was also some evidence tending to show that
he was kicked and struck, and that other
violence was offered him. But upon this
point the evidence was conflicting. The
damages were laid at SIS 900.

The constables in Boston have adopted the
despicable practice of going, in plain dress,
to eating houses on Sunday, prevailing :;iooli :spoli
the proprietors to furnish them with meal.
and then prosecuting them for it. In any
decent community, officers who were thus
guilty of inducing and seducing citizens to
violate the law, would themselves be more
severely punished than their dupes; and in
the estimation of honest men an officer who
would resort to the base trick practiced by
the Boston constables would be regarded as
unworthy of belief or consideration.

The Philadelphia Presbytery has adopted
a resolution .denouncing the publication of
Sunday newspapers as desecration of the
Sabbath, and calling ON the Christian public
to abstain from reading or buying them. 1t
is our conviction that the worst of the many
Sunday papers, and all of them combined,
do not exert so mischieyous and baneful an
influence as most of the Sunday preaching
of the day-=thnt delivered from Puritan pull
pits especially.

Mr.. Beecher, a prominent and active tenn
perance man and strict church member in
Southbury, Connecticut, was caught, a few
weeks ago, stealing cider brandy from the
distillery of neighbor named Stiles. The
latter had missed his cider brandy before.
and had fixed a rope and bell to the door
of the still, which woke him up when it was
opened. Several barrels of the stuff were
found in Beecher's cellar, which he had at
odd times abstracted from Stiles cellar.
