The colored schools of Savannah
will not show one genuine black pupil
to ten of lighter shade.
Verify, the deeds of these people do
show themselves in their children's
faces, that they love darkness rather
than the light Behold the christian
ling influences of slavery, and the
manner in which colored people were
enlightened in those days; truly it
almost maketh one mad.
The Savannah iiremen (whites)
turned out the other day, and had a
grand parade on the occasion of visit
Of Macon Company to this city.
The men all looked finely, and the
occasion was one long to be remem-
bered by all concerned.
There WAS one fact noticeable, not q
United tStotes Flag aoas seen az tie
entire procession -! At the annual
parade Of, the colored firemen, the
last of May, every engine had from
one to dozen of the glorious \old
'Stars and Stripes while large por-
trait of Lincoln was carried at the
head Of one Company. We under
stood that the "Sfrs, and Stripes"
floated over one engine house the other
day, but did not see it.
The schools Of the American Mis-
sionary Association closed OH the l4th
instant, and the Superintendent, with
most Of his corps OF teachers, will leave
for New York on to-lnorrow's boat.
There has been no public exhibition or
examination OF these schools during
the present year; although i is evi-
dent to all that great work Mas been
accomplished.
Mr.. John Boutcll, of Atlanta one OF
the best master builders in Georgia, is
now engaged in tearing downp por-
ton Of present school building On the
corner Of Price and Harris streets, and
will erect in It's stead building con-
tanning Chapel, eight large school
rooms, each capable of seating seventy
pupils, and furnished with tie best
and most modern desks, and other
furniture and appliances equal 10 any
of the Northern schools.
This building is to be completed by
the first of October, when the schools
will be re-opencd, and will cost mot
far from twelve thousand dollars.
Registration has not yet commcced
in this city or district. The latter
board have received the proper blanks
and instructions, the former have not,
and are also refused an office in die
Exchange, in which building all he
city offices are located.
The Mayor we understand, refused
their request for room, on the ground
that the building was fully occupied,
and further, that Congress having pro
vided funds for registration purposes.
the Board had authority to rent offices.
How the matter will end no one knows
Some Of The registers in the country
districts complain that their salary
will not cover their expenses.
Very little has been done toward
proper organization of the Republican
party in this city, but the enemy is
hard 1T work, and determined to profit
by the mistake.

IMPEACHMENT PRoJEcT.-T There exists
little disposition in Washington in ia
yor of a prolonged session OF Congress
mt this time In fact, the desire of all
members already here is to close the
approaching meeting the moment the
requisite explanatory reconstruction
| legislation can be consummated. That
is, without approaching the considera-
ton of anything else whatever. The
Judiciary Committee will surely have
their report upon the impeachment
proposition ready by Wednesday next.
Its members favoring impeachment
will doubtless urge the reassembling of
Congress by the lst Of November, Gf
not some time in October to consider
that subject. Their success upon that
point, it strikes us, will depend almost
wholly upon the impression that may

In 1866, $780, 900 sheep were killed
BY dogs, and their value was $4,000
600. The number injured was $780,
600, and the loss is estimated at $780,
900. The number of dogs in the coun-
try is computed at 100000, their
annual expense $40 per head, and the
sum total of their subsistence $50, 0OO,-

a class Of animals the most of which
are worthless, and many of them caus-

The RussIan cola Mines.

The London Journal of Mining says:-'The
quantity of gold produced in 1864 by private in-
dustry, as we'll in the Ural Mountains as in East
ern Siberia, amounted to nineteen tons, showing
a slight falling off as compared with the year
1868. The year 1866 was one of the most favor
able character for the production of Russian
gold, the results obtained having everywhere
surpassed those of preceding years. As regards
Eastern Siberia, the production of 1866 exceeded
that OF 1864 by 2743 tons, and that of 1868 by
1856 tons. This augmentation, which would
have been greater if drought had not often in
terrupted the works, was the result of works in
new bearings. In Western Siberia 1865 yielded
0272 ton more gold than was obtained in 1864
and almost twice us much as was produced in
1868. In the Ural district the production has
scarcely changed of late years. From an abb
sence of statistical documents as to the produc-
ton of the State in the Ural district and in
Eastern Siberia, we can only, in order to form
an idea of the importance of its bearings, adopt
as a minimum the average production of former
yearsthat is, about 1870 tons for the Ural group,
and 2293 tons for Eastern Siberia. The total
production of gold in Russia was estimated at
nearly twenty.three tons in 1864, and little
more than twenty-six tons in 1866"

RssaTding Porquisites.

Perquisites All then we come to a point on
which l think there should be some better
When was student at the Royal Academy,
with moderate allowance FROM the parental
purse, used TO spend my Easter week at
friends house IN the country, where an estab.
hshment was kept on rather large scale. My
railway journey there and back, cab fares, and
other little incidental expenses cost me on those
occasions perhaps somewhat more than / was
justified in spending on such an excursion. But
on leaving the house q tax awaited me which
really could not afford to pay, and yet from
which no young gentleman with any sense OF
dignity could escape. My friend had a solemn
butler-but of livery of course with a bald
head and an air of such tremendous import
ance that one instinctively felt (at least l did)
how delicate a task it was to offer him any gra-
tuity at all, and how utterly impossible it would
have been to offer him anything less than gold
without positively insulting him. The same
argument applied with equal reason to the
housekeeper, demure-look parsonage who
had breakfast served in her own room, and
whom the other servants addressed as "mum."
Then there was my friends valet, who cOnde-
scended to bring me my shavIng-water In the
morning, and laid out my dress-coat before
dinner. There was another gentleman in livery
who, during the repast, came frequently to me
with offers of little sherry, little 'ock, sir" and
so forth. Finally, there were the groom who
brought round our horses to the door, the
gardener who had always some trife to offer IN
the shape of fruit or vegetables as | was leav-
ing (nO doubt they thought, or pretended to
think, that l had house and cuisine of my
own in town, whereas lived in Bloomsbury
lodgings, and my usual dinner consisted of a
couple of chops), and the Iodgekeeper who
touched his hat whenever | entered or left the
grounds. Ali these funCtiOnares had in turn to
be feed, and by the time their gifts had been
duly dispensed was generally minus the best
half of my last 95 note. Now, it seems to me
that this system of servant-tipping requires re.
vision. 1t falls rather hard on our young friends
and poor relations, guests whose purses are
slender-whose wallets are not amply stored.-

The Reclamation of VagabOnd Boys in
London.

The London Telegraph says:-"With the pur-
pose OF establishing most useful but not over
prosperous charity on q permanent footing of
success, the friends of the institution in Mansel
street, WhiteChapel, have just met, by invitation
of the committee, to consider the best means of
attaining the objects III view The Refuge for
Homeless and Destitute Boys takes up the work
of the ragged schools, and is certified under the
excellent act of 1866, which empowers magis-
trate to send useful misdemeanants TO be in
structed in various branches of industry, with
authority for their detention. The Refuge now
under notice was opened in High street, White
chapel, in 1854, and has since been removed to
larger building in Mansell street. The difficult
task of reclamation has been pursued with vary
ing results; and the lessons which the managers
have learned from the experience Of thirteen
years are not the less valuable, perhaps, because
they have sprung from failures.
''The very first scheme of teaching these half
clad little outcasts how to make and mend
clothes, boots, and shoes, broke down hope.
lessly, and other trades have been resorted to
with some encouraging effect. The manu-
facture of brushes and of paper bags Is in
active operation. Some of the very smallest of
the lads labor with will that shows itself in
the irmness and speed of their work; and the
signs of a natural industry cannot but be graft
lying to those benevolent persons who have
helped to snatch the forlorn little ones from a
life of idleness and vice. No doubt II the in
dustry were so remunerative as to make the in
stitution selt-supporting, great principle would
be Vindicated, apart from the mere kindliness of
the design. But the simple want of present
commercial success does not at all prove that
the employment of these boys should cease.
On the contrary, it Is most desirable to help
the good work on, and to give it such impetus
as may eventually enable it to run alone.
''TheIe are now one hundred and one boys
under charge of the establishment; the number
who have participated in its benefits since the
foundation is four thousand. Of these 1t is too
certain that many have returned to their old
ways of life; but others have done well, and not
a lew have emigrated to the colonies"

BROKEN VOWS.

Promises are lightly spoken;
Vows on which we blindly build
(Uttered only to be broken),
Go forever unfulflled.
Oft betrayed but still believing
Duped again and yet again
All our hoping, all our grieving
Warns us, but it warns in vain.
From the cradle to the coral
From the sunny days of youth
We are taught the simple moral,
Still we doubt the morals truth.
When boy, they found me rather
10th to do as | was bid.
az shall buy BIRCH" said father.
Broken vows He never did.
Grown extravagant, when youthful,
In my tailor's debt | ran;
He appeared about as truthful
In his talk as any man.
Let me tell you how he sold me:
"Look you, Mr.. What's-Your-Name,
] shall summon you, !" he told me-
But the summons never came.
Through the meadows, daisy-laden,
Once it was my lot to stray,
Talking to a lovely maiden
In very spooney way;
And stole Ess-another-
Then another-then lot.
"Fie !" she said; 'I'll tell my mother"
Idle words; she told her not.

METRoRTEs.-M Daubree, who has been
investigating the specimens of meteorites in
the Paris collection, divides all meteortes
INTO TWO primary groups-Siderites and Aside
rtes-the former being characterized by the
presence OF metallic iron and the latter by its
absence; The Asiderites contain one group
only, which is termed Asideres. The Side
rites are divided into two sections: in the
first the specimens do not enclose stony parti-
cles, and in this we find the group Of Holo-
siders; in the second both iron and stony
matter are present. This, then, includes two
groups-Syssideres in which the iron is seen
as a continuous mass, and Soporadosideres, in
which the iron is present in the form Of scat
tered grains. IHl

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGF.

We receive from our Washington office
full and comprehensive summary of the Presi-
dents Message, which will be presented 10
Congress to-day. 1t will be seen that his Ex-
cellency still clings TO the theories which thus
far have produced serious differences between
himself and Congress. He does not think that
Congress has, in any way, advanced the work
of Reconstruction, but that as much remains
to be done as when he entered the Presi-
Dental Office. He urges Congress to
repeal the Reconstruction acts and remove the
Southern States from military rule These acts
are considered violation of the national faith
and in conflict with the Constitution. They
overwhelm all the communities of the
South, loyal and dislOyal, in one COM
mon doom, and infict upon them indiscrim-
mate vengeance. He goes back TO the bar
barOus ages to find a parallel for them,
and regrets that Christianity and civiiza-
ton have not prevented the enactment
of such cruel and unjust laws lie re-
CARDS the main object of these enactments
to confer suffrage on the negro. This result
will be full of evils. The blacks deserve hui
name treatment, but they should not have a
government OF their own. Millions of degraded
slaves yesterday cannot be made intelligent
freemen to-day. The President will aid in any
plans to aid the negroes, but he will not sur
render to them our political heritage. He
bitterly inveighs against the extravaganza of
military rule in the South. 1t will require large
standing army and two hundred millions annually
to maintain the supremacy of these negro gov
ernments, for the negroes never can maintain
their own ascendancy. Mr.. johnson admits
that he has given much thought as to the ex-
tent of the resistance the Executive should show
to unconstitutional legislation. Such resistance
might, in times of political passion, lead TO
civil war. He would concede much to pre-
serve the peace, but the time may come when
he may be compelled to take stand regard
less Of consequences. He does not think the
Reconstruction acts invite the imperative inter-
ference thus intimated. They do not abso-
Iutely enslave the people-and the recent cleo
tons show to him that his confidence in the
people is not misplaced.
The Message denounces the Tenure OF Office
Act as unconstitutional, and tending to pro-
woke fraud by preventing the removal of dis
honest officials. The financial question is dis
cussed at length. Congress should take steps
to make the National notes as good as specie.
This may be done without materially contract
ing the currency, although it is we'll remarked

THE OHIO RAILROAD DISASTER.

The coroner's jury in the case of the victims
of the late horri BILE collision on the Cincinnati
Hamilton, and Dayton Railroad have rendered
a verdict from which we expect no good result
whatever. In general terms they censure cer5
tain employees for gross neglect OF duty -
which we suppose to be mild variety OF man
slaughter. They find the fagman whose duty
it was to signal the approaching train grossly
negligent in not running fast or far enough
with his flag. One conductor was to blame Tor
not instructing one of the brakesmen more
particularly in his duty; the two rear brakes
men, who declared that they did not hear the
engineers danger-signal, were unit for ther
" situations" somebody was to blame tor
letting brake be ont of ORDER out
the jury cannot decide who 1t was
Finally, there is the stereotyped compn-
ment to the intelligence, sagacity, practical
experience and business character OF the
officers of the road who would not have per-
mitted the disaster if they had known how to
prevent it, and the Legislature is asked 10
provide punishment for the negligence OF rail-
road employees, such "a the careless conductor
and the deaf brakeman. With all difference
to the Cincinnati jury, we think punishment
is more needed for the officers than the men,
Here we had fifteen freight cars dashing into
the rear of o passenger train. The engineer
was warned at some distance, but he could not
stop because he could not get the brakes put
on. There were two men at the forward end,
but their brake was brokenj there were two
m the rear, but they were too far of to hear
the whistle; at the middle Of tho tram
there was nobody at all; and as there
was no way of getting from car to car
except over the roofs the two men at the
broken brake were entirely useless Who was
responsible for this reckless way of running
train, when it was well known that others were
Just ahead of 1t on the same trackf Who was
to blame for letting fifteen freight cars go out
with no means of putting on the brakes ex-
cept at the rear, where there was certainly
reasonable danger Of the whistle not beng
heardi Whose fault is it that there were not
patent brakes on the cars, which the engineer
could set in motion instantly, az there are now
on all well-reguated rOadsR And finally why
was there no means Of warning this freight
train by telegraph Some of these questions
seem TO have occurred to the jury, for
they add to their verdict the prepos-
ferrous supplemental finding that there
was insufficient caution on the part of en-
ployes,n whom they are unable to desig-
nate. ii negecting to provide means Of
transit from one car to another, SO as to
command the brakes and "means of tele-
graphing when several trains are running at
" the same time at very short distances be-
tween" 1t strikes us that the blame rests
not upon any employee, but upon the chief Off
GERS for whose intelligence, sagacity, practical
experience and business character" these jury
men seem to have such misplaced admiration.
