Color not Genuine.

There is a negro man living in Luray, Page
County, who is represented as great curo, i'y.
He was ORIGINALLY of very dark complexion /;
but is now turning white White spots, some
large aud some small, are making their appear
ance all over his body, and his left arm is entire
" white on the inside, from the wrist to the
elbow. The white skin seems to be as tender
as a woman's, and is in singular and strik-
ing contrast with the ebony hue of the bal
ance of the negro's body. To all human APP
pearances, he is destined to turn white all over !
He is about 40 years of age, and a shoemaker
byprofession, and was originally slave, though
he had been liberated before the war.
CToo late day to change color if he desires
the love Of old Thad. Stevens.

Baylor Cavalry were constantly picking up
some of his men who were not in as much haste
as himself in getting to his introuohmonts
Inspeaking of his visit TO Congress, the Pitts

took place on the 9th ult., at Lexington, Va,
before a large audience. After prayer by the
Rev. DR.. Duncan, an Grafton was delivered be-
fore the Washington Society by John P. Stri-

On the 2Sth, the commencement exercises took
place, when the grafton was delivered by the

prominent persons present were Generals Gusts
Lee, Pendleton aud Colston. General Robert
Z. Lee appeared to be the most unobtrusive
person among the throng. Rev. Mr. Lefever,
of Baltimore, has declined to accept the Profess
sorship Of Moral Philosophy
The Lexington Gazette speaks in the follow
ing complementary terms of Mr.. Strider's adj
dress:
" The representative Of the Washington
Literary Society-Mr. J. ?. Strider. of ,Jeffer-
son county, was first introduced to the audience.
His subject was Literature" Though oldand
trite he handled it well, and his introduction
was particularly good, and contained some pas
sages of excellence and beauty-delivered in a
pleasing voice and good manner, that made it
in many respects far superior to the speeches
We hear ordinarily on such occasions"

Rioters.

A riot occurred at Charleston, South Carroll
ma, on Saturday last. The origin of the riot is
attributed to some negro soldiers, who swagger-
ed into the market and blocked up the passage.
When they were ordered off, they retired, but
soon returned with reiniorcements, and in firing
upon the police wounded dangerously one or
two colored persons who were looking on
The policemen charged upon the rioters and
drove them to the military headquarters Of the
Freedrhen's Bureau, where it is alleged they
were protected from arrest.
