| Fred Douglass, the great colored orator
of the abolition party, lectured at Chicago
last Wednesday night, and on the night
following at Richmond, Indiana. On his
way from Chicugo to the latter place, the
colored philosopher surreptitiously made
his way to the ladies' car, where he took
peaceable possession Of vacant seat, and
struck an attitude decidedly comfortable
in appearance, where he undoubtedly ex-
pectcd to remain until he had arrived at
his journeys end. But alas, how the
mighty Fred. in all his glory was disap-
pointed! An ugly brakeman came along
through the car and spying the colored
individual in the wrong pew. made all
possible haste to have him transferred to
quarters more congenial to the African
race, but he refused to "obey orders" and
it was some time before the wiley brake
man succeeded in fanking his antagonist
and planting him in another car.
We were forcibly reminded in this little
transaction Of the story related by Hill.
flicker Snickersnacker Of the negro boy
who was forcbly elected from a street car
We quote from Hillficker, with q very
little variation
1t vosh one great pig colored mans
Who had Elm much plack skin,
He seed elm white car comm up
Ind swhore he would get in
And on der stheps dis colored man

And der way dc colored man went out

In the recent speech of Charles Sumner
in the Senate Of the United States, the
orator demanded an equality oc civil and
political rights for the negro, in default of
which nc threatens "resistance" IRE
venge' blood and .'all the horrors of
St. Domingo" As yet, we have heard no
denunciation Of this brutal and bloody
manifesto from the republican Journals of
the nation. On the contrary, whenever
they have spoken, they have approved It,
They cannot, by silence, cvade the issue.
They must meet it squarely.-A9e.

AMERICAN BRIDGE BUILDISG.-The
suspension bridge to be thrown across the
Ohio river from Cincinnati to Covington.
Kentucky, it is said. will be the longest
in the world. The total length Of its span
is 3171 feet. This, we believe, is about
three times the length of the great bridge
over the Niagara river just below the falls,
and more than five hundred feet longer
than the bridge over Menal Stats, in
Great Britain. The towers from which
the cables are to be suspended will be two
hundred feet high from foundation to cap
stone, and they will stand one hundred
and ten feet above tho floor of the
bridge.

President J0h,lSOn's Speech.

The New York Times Republican, ha
no censure Tor the Presidents I'D of Feb
ruary speech. Indeed, it praises the Pres
ident for his outs okcn manlincss, and fol
not allowing false dignity to prevent hin
talking plainly With the people. The Times
says:
The birthday of Washington was fit
tingly chosen Tor popular demonstrations
in favor of the Union That in this city
was triumphant. That at Washington
equally enthusiastic, was even more sig
nlticaut, for there the President himself
uttered thoughts that breathe and words
that burn. That great effort OF wisdom
aud patriotism will secure for him the
gratitude OF his own country and the ap~
probation of the world. When this won'
derful speech has been attcntively read
and digestel ny the American people
President Johnson will be rs firmly
established in their confidence and
affections as the most popular Of his pre-
decessors."
The taunts and dcnunciatous which
have been lavishe1 upon President John
son since the meeting OF congress, have
certainly been such as TO rouse milder
temper than his to impotence greater
than he has hitherto shown. When 4
distinguished leader in Congress declares
that he has been guilty of usurpations
which would have cost king his head,
and when popular lecturer proclaims, to
an appiauding faction, that the incumbent
Of the Presidential chair is an obstacle to
be removed Andrew johnson may GER
tanIy be excused for setting aside the res
iinements Of etiquette in retorting upon his
heate. and reckless assalants
The Presidents speech-in its general
tone, in the leading thought and principle
which it asserts-is one which will arrest
the attention and command the assent of
the great body Of the American people
Its language IS strong, direct, manly, and
such as no man can mistake or misintcr-
pref. The President lays aside all the
iactious dignity with which his high of
flee invests him, aud talks directly, frankly.
and with the powerful emphasis of unmis,
taxable sincerity, to the people of the dan>
gers which menace the country, and of
the duty which devolves upon them to
avert them"

From the Cleveland Leader.

The President has proven false to him
self, to his gloIious war record. to his
pledges to the colorcd people of the South,
and to the party which elected him, by
thus placing himself with the coppcrheads
ard rebels in opposition to measure alb
solutcly necessary for the protection Of the
southern Unionists, black or white. and
will have cause TO regret it to the END of a
very brief political existence and for all
his life thereafter.
