CoIored Celebration in washington-Remarks Of
the President

WASHINGTON, April l9.-The colored population
to-day celebrated emancipation in the District of Co.
lumbia by a procession, and speeches from various
white friends of the cause. Four or five thousand
persons were in the parade, while probably ten
thousand thronged the streets through which they
passed, waving hats and hankerchiefs, and cheering
as the line passed them. At the commencement OF
the days proceedings they visited the grounds of
President, who made them short speech, in which
he thanked them for the compliment of appearing
before him. He said the time would come, and that
not far distant, when it would be known to the
country who was their best practical friend He
knew it was easy to vlify him. but for this he did
not care. While some pretended to be the especial
friends of the negro, they ride him as hobby for
obtaining and maintaining power, but as for himself
it had been principle with him to secure freedom
in its best sense He counselled his listeners that
they have important duties to perform, and that
they must show that they worthy Of the liberty
with which they have been endowed. He had done,
he said,i more for them than those who had never
perlled life or property, and who pretended to be
the especial friends while ensconcing themselves in
places OF safety.

From the Somerset pa Democrat

On Monday night the ID instant, a daughter Of
Mr.. VIM. Griffith of Jenner township, this county,
aged about II years, elOped with FULL loOded mig
ger black as Erubus. Sometime after night Miss Grit
fifth slipped out from her fathers house met the niger
on the road according to previous arrangement
and the same night walked to JOhnstown, IS miles
distant with view of taking the morning train for
Harrisburg where they were to be married. Mr.. Crit
fifth discovering the absence ofthe parties and suspect
ing their intentions, proceeded forthwith to Stoys
town, the nearest telegraph Office and there tele-
graphed to the police of JohnstOwn TO arrest them
on their arrival, which was accordingly done. Miss
Griffith was taken to her fathers house, and the mig
ger was on the 18th instant committed to the jail of
this county to wait his trial at next court, which
will amount simply to nothing, as it is no legal
offence, but purely matter Of taste and SMELL
This niger has been in the employ of Mr.. Griffith
for some time During the last winter he frequently
took this daughter and Mrs. Griffith and other female
members of the family sleigh riding He was on
perfect equality with the family-eat at the same
table, slept under the same roof, and enjoyed all
the rights and privileges that Mr.. Griffths children
did
Mr.. Griffith is of the original AbOlitionists of
the county, has voted that thicket for the last %
years to our certain knowledge, and has advocated
the cause of negro equality in a jealous manner

BREAD AND BUTTER.-Hall, in his Journal Of
Health gives the following bit of wisdom Bread
and butter the only articles of food of which we
tire from early childhood TO extreme old age
Apound of fine flour or Indian meal contains three
times as much meat one pound of butchers roast
beef; and if the whole product of the grain, bran
and ALL were made into bread, fifteen per cent more
of nutriment would be added. Unfortunately the
BRAN the coarsest part Of which gives sOundness to
the teeth and strength to the BRAIN is generally eX-
Guided. Five hundred pounds of flour gives to the
body thirty pounds of the bony aliment while the
same quantity of bran gives more than one hun
dred and twenty-five pounds.
This bone is lime, the phosphate Of lime, the in
dispensable aliment Of health to the whole human
body, from the want of which multtudes of persons
go into a general decline. But swallowing phOs-
phate in the shape of powders, in syrups to cure
these declines has little no effect. The articles
contained in these phOsphates must pass through
natures laboratory be subject to her manipulations
in alembites specially prepared by Almighty power
and skill in order to frame in palmer phrase the
shortest, safest and infallible method of giving
strength to the body, bone and brain, thereby ar
resting disease aud building up the constitution is
TO eat and digest more bread made out of the whole
grain, whether, wheat, corn, rye or oats.

fifty years Of age, having almost severed his head
from his body by means of rather ingeniously con-
trived guillotine The deceased was found lying on
his back a form, his head being nearly cut Of by
an axe, the handle ofwhich was screwed to bedpOst
so that il might be held firm. The bed was drawn
close mp to cupboard on the top of which a roller
had been placed and to the end OF rope some four
feet long the deceased had tied large stone weighing
about ninety pounds. Having drawn up the stone
TO the top of the door, TO give it fall of four
feet he had arranged matters that the stone was
placed exactly over the head Of the axe. The de-
ceased must have laid down on the form, placed his
head under the edge of the and cut the rope by

THE FENIANs on THE BORDER.-If the mus.
tering of the Fenians on our Eastern frontier
goes on much longer, there will be danger OF
bloody collision, whether it is now intended or
not. Three hundred were reported as landing
at Eastport on one day last week, and they
seem to be dropping in in squads continually
from every direction. Some accounts represent
them as very orderly and apparently subject TO
discipline. But it is plain that such bodies oil
men, with nothing to do on their hands and
comnrisino in their number characters Of all
sorts, some reckless in their aims and others
fanatical in their hatred of England, must tend
to mischief either of an irregular or of an or
ganized nature before long. 1t is admitted,
however, in all the accounts, that the Fenians
thus far turning up on the frontier have no arms
and no military stores of consequence. But
whether this proves the humbug character of
the whole affair, or indicates that the gath
ering is a feint toad real movements elsewhere,
or NEARLY shows that the men have been mus
tered in advance of their equipments, is one of
the puzzles of this curious mystery. Another
curious inquiry is, whether there is much truth
in the alleged assertions of British soldiers to
the Fenian interest. We need hardly say that
the current reports are to be received with
great allowance still, there is smoke enough
to permit the possibility of some fire yet.
ONE OF THE HEROES AND PATRIoTs.-There
was a stupid but conceited person about here

at Fredericksburg. He is the party alluded to
in the following squib from the Wheeling Reg
lister:

is making radical speeches throughout the

DIR. R. P. STEVENS, of New York, has recently
published long paper, made up of statements Of
facts showing the wonderful effect of different in
yentions in increasing the rewards of labor and i'm
proving the condition of mankind. The most i'm.
pressve of these statements is one made to illustrate
the effect of railroads. He says:
when Queen Elizabeth moved her court $4,000
horses were called into requsition and the consump
ton Of provisions was sufficient to support 1000
men. The royal progress was more dreaded than
the march of an invading army, and the region
through which it passed was reduced to famine from
which it required years to recover. When Queen
Victoria visits Scotland she is carried in special
train at an expense of about 5000. -

THE WRIT OF HABEAs CORPUS.
Judge UnderwoOd's Decision Reversed.


The Washington correspondent of the New York
Times writes:
The Attorney General on Tuesday made his report
TO the President in the hdbeds corpus case decided
by Judge Underwood at Alexandria, Va, on the
18th instant, and which was referred to Mr.. Speed
for his opinion Ii will be recoected that Judge
Underwood decided that the late peace proclamation
did not pretend to revoke the previous proclamation
of President Lincoln suspendng in certain the
writ of hdbeaS corpus in the States lately in nsur-
rection and upon this view of the law Judge Under
wood refused TO grant the prayer OF the petitioner
Upon the fac Is the Attorney General comes 10 diff
ferent conclusion from that arrived at by Judge Un
derwood and recommends that an order be made
for the release of the prisoner. Upon this recon-
mendation the President directed that an order be
issued for the discharge of the prisoner.
II is scarcely necessary to add that wherever the
rebellion is declared to have ceased there the writ
of hdbcaS corpus is no longer suspended, and
wherever the civil law has resumed its authority the
military power will not be exercised except to aid
the civil authorities in executing DEGREES and Tor
the latter purpose only is the military arm retained
in the States lately in rebellion
Nevertheless, the following correspondence shows
that martial law is still recognized. Martial law
and the privilege of the writ of habeas corpus can
not co-eXist:
