divided, and a more equal distribution
must be wrought out"
Wendell Phillips, too, pipes that
agrarian song. lie, in urging Confsca-

Confscation is nero naked justice
to the former slave. Who brought the

toll are mixed with it forever? Who
cleared those forests? Who made those

THREE brothers, the eldest Of whom
is not over twelve years old, living near
Harmon's Station, on the Cincinnati and
indianapolis Railroad, have been in the
habit of lying between the ties of the
road and incurring the terrible risk of
having a train pass over them at full
speed. They repeated this recently, at
sad cost, with the passenger train run
by Conductor George Drain. This train,
ont of Cincinnati, was running along ab
the usual speed, when the engineer hap
pened to discover three little human
forms curled up in holes between the
ties, just as the engine was within a few
yards of them. There was no chance to
stop the train until it had passed over
them, and proceeded some distance fur.

turned to the spot and found the throo
children terribly bruised. All had brok-
en- limbs and one of them had his head
mashed in such terrible manner as to
make his recovery q matter of doubt
It seems that in selecting their nests
they had not calculated correctly as 70

them. They are children Of Mr.. John

Because nobody could hold him,we were
told and whenever they tried to trot
him with another horse he ran away
We were told also that, whereas in ordi-
nary trots against time it is necessary to
run another horse alongside to keep up
the spirits of the contestant. "McGow-
an" was always trotted alone, and in his
last twenty mile trot his driver chad all
he wanted" to keep him down to his gait.
By this time we thought we had ex-
hausted the captain" and We were sure
the captain" had exhausted US: so the
stable door was locked (the steed could
not be stolen except by an iron-clad
thief, and we asked if there were any
more fast horses on the ground.
"Well, yes, that brown Dexter is
down hereinnumber five. I dunno where
the fellah is that takes care of him"
The fellah was ultimately found, but
he, too, was in a mood aptly designated
by the name of his favorite vehicle. I'm
der iudicious treatment" he relented,
and admitted US to "Dcxter's" drawing
room. Nearly everybody is familiar with
'Dexters" appearance, his white face,
his white leg, brown coat and his long
body. At present he looks rather low

but he has been worked pretty well this
summer. His skin is as glossy as satin.
and he seems fit for almost anything
He, too, was hidden by blankets, and
his hOofs we're done up in what looked
like poultices. We contented ourselves
with inquiries; from a distance, about his
temper, and his groom was free to admit
that he did not encourage the familiar
ity of strangers. Unlike "McGowan, "
who is tied up close TO the manger,
''Dexter" is left perfectly free in his box
to wander at his own sweet will. He
seems a very nervous beast, and was
restless during the whole time we were
inspecting him, now showing the white
of his "wicked old eye" now twitching
his lip, and again throwing the straw up
from his boots Cor his hooves if any one
insists upon it,

and a body servant. The latter was col
ored, and, like his colleagues, brooded
some intolerable wrong. We decline to
say whether we did or did not treat him,
but it is certain we prevailed upon him
to exhibit his charge. "Brown George"
is the handsomest of the horses we saw.
He stands about as high as "Dexter," is
of little darker brown, and trails be-
hind him on the ground a tail which

SIXTEEN YEARS OF uYDRoPEoBIA

THE Detroit Free Press, of the 9th
inst, gives the following singular ac-
count of a case of hydrophobia: Six
teen years ago last Wednesday. James
Bay. then a resident of Pontiac, was
bitten by a rabid dog, but experienced
no serious effect from the bite until one
year from that day on which he was bit
ten. He then felt some symptoms Of the
terrible disease, which soon developed
into a most frightful attack. For six
weeks he was a raving maniac, and all
hope of his recovery was abandoned, but
an iron constitution and careful nursing
brought him out from the shadow of
death, and he rallied, the disease finally
passing off. He pursued the even tenor
of his way until the second anniversary,
when he was again attacked, but with
| less severity than on the first occasion.
The twenty-sixth day Of June in each
year has been the occasion of a hydro
phobic fit, the last of which attacked
him one week ago yesterday, at Sand
which, where he was employed as a
brickmaker. The usual symptoms were
felt during the early part of the day, and
Bay requested some of his friends to tie
him, in order to prevent personal injury.
Being frightened by his peculiar appear
ance, they refused to do so, and he con-
tinuod at his work all day, and until
midnight, his time for quitting. Going
to neighboring barn, he tried to sleep
off the dreadful attack. After a while
/ his companions heard a noise in the barn,
and fearing it was as Bay had declared,
went to his aid An appalling sight
greeted them. The poor victim was
foaming at the mouth, biting at various
objects, and to all appearances suffering
the most horrible agony. As soon as he
caught sight of them, with eyes glowing
like freballs, and uttering an unearthly
veil, he made q rush for them. The
party at once retreated, leaving Bay
alone in the gloomy hayloft wrought up
to the highest pitch of maniacal frenzy,
and battling with an enemy that no NOR
tai man can subdue. In one of his con-
vulsions he lifted a portion of the roof
completely of, which evidently exhaust
ed him, as nothing more was heard, and
when his friends finally ventured to look
after him, be was found in a sound sleep.
He was at once secured and taken to a
snfo place, where he was kept for sever
al hours, and when he awoke nearly all
traces of the previous nights awful ex-
perience had disappeared, and, with the
exception of the exhaustion produced by
his great suferings, was as we'll as usual

NEGRO JURIEs.
[From tbe Atlanta c. IntenigenoeE.I

from the Atlanta CGa.) IntelIigencer.l
We make the following extracts from
the letter of a gentleman residing in
Houston, Texas, to his brother in thi:
city. 1t will be found emphatically
rich:
"a negro man had hired himself tC
Mr.. A. for SIS per month-and at the
expiration of ten months sued Mr.. A. for
Sl5O. A. admitted the contract as al
legged by the negro, and admitted that he
(the negro) had worked for him the
length of time for which the negro claim
ed wages. The case was submitted to
the negro jury, under the charge of the
court and to the astonishment Of all pre-
sent, they brought in a verdict in favor
of the plaintiff for S110. The Judge
told them he did not see how they could
render such a verdict; that the negro
plaintiff was clearly entitled, by the ad-
mission of Mr.. A, to $3.50. A large.
dirty, greasy negro juryman raised up in
jury box, and with much gravity inform
ed his Honor thatS1l per month was all
the negro services were worth that he
knew the plaintiff to be a triding, lazy
scoundrel, and that the jury would not
allow him any more Otempora O
nsoresi The white man (NIr. A.) of
course had no cause for complaint at the
verdict. But this is a sample of their
ideas of law and facts. God protect me
from such juries
"At the close Of the first week Of
court in Houston, the negro jury were
paid off at the rate of 81 per day for
their services as jurors. and on the
Monday morning following, when court
opened, the negloes literally boseiged
the courthouse to get upon the jury
One old crippled negro stopped the
Judge on his way to court and begged
for place on the jury, urging his Grip
pied and almost helpless condition as a
reason why he should be selected; and
further, proposed to take the job Of sit
ting on the jury by the year. When
the Judge informed him that the court
would be in session only three Or four
weeks, he seemed to think this was only
an artfuI dodge Of his Honor to avoid
closing the contract, and ingeniously
proposed to take the job by tie gear and al
one dollar per dag! This IS the pure
and undefIed channel through which
verdicts now flow"

AGAINST THE AMENDMENT BUT FOH
THE TICKET

We know a number of prominent Re.
publicans in this county who are oppos.
to giving the Negroes the right of 7Ot.
ing in Ohio, and will therefore vote
against the Negro Suffrage Amendment
to the Constitution, but say they will
vote the Republican ticket.
Let US examine the question a moment
and see if it would be consistent to vote
against the one and for the other.
Every candidate on the Republican
ticket, from the highest to the lowest, IS
pledged by the platform of his party to
sustain and support that proposition.
Now, let US imagine We see an honest
conservative Republican go up to the
polls and deposit his ballot as follows.
For Governor, R. B. Hayes, pledged
to Negro Suffrage and Negro Equality a:
For Lieutenant Governor, John C.
Lee, pledged to Negro Suffrage, &c.
And so with all the other candidates
on the ticket. Thus, our Republican
friends will have voted sixteen times to
indorse the doctrine Of Negro Suffrage
and Social Equality as represented in the
candidates, but when they come to the
last line on the ticket, they vote, Con-
stitutional Amendment, "No'" Who
would believe such men to be honest; OF,
if honest, that they have sufficient ca
pacity to do without a guardian?
If you are opposed to negro suffrage,
as every white man ought to be, then it
is your duty to vote against its aiders
and abetters.
But you will vote against the Amend
ment, will you? With the same consis-
tency you might say that you could
have been a good Union man, while you
were voluntarily fighting in the Confed-
crate army to destroy the Union, as to
say you are opposed to negro suffrage in
Ohio, when you vote and act with the
party that is making every effort to os-
tablish it.

Chief JUSTICE PARSONS was one Of
the ablest men that Massachusetts, ever
produced. His power with jury vas
extraordinary. He avoided, from prin-
oiple, all attempts at oratory, being con-
vinoed, as was often said Of Mr.. Ohoate,
that reputation for eloquenoe was a
formidable obstacle to success. He talk
ed directly to a jury in simple language,
with great oonoiseuess, putting the case
with earnestness, pressing it with strong
logic, and making them feel that they
had no doubt they must agreo With him.
His most elaborate argument did not eX-
oeed an hour, and rarely went beyond
half an hour. An eminent lawyer tells
an amusing story CT one of his earliest
pleas. The case was an important one,
and Parsons was unknown to most per-
sons outside the bar. When he began
his argument he leaned one foot on a
chair, and one elbow on his knee, and
began to talk as if he were explaining
the matter to a company Of neighbOrs,
and there could be no doubt about his
version of it, The lawyer saw at once
that he was winding the jury around his
finger, but they were unconscious Of the
process, for when they had given him the
verdict one of them came to the lawyer
and said, Daively: Who is this Mr..
Parsons2 He is not much of q lawyer,
and don't look or talk as if be would ev-
er be one; but he seems to be q real good
sort Of q man"
