Returning from Washington where | had
been on q few hours visit on last evening, and
sitting in the car Of the Orange 4 Alexandria
Southern bound night train, my attention was
attracted by the entrance OF two gentlemen,
one of whom carried in his arms bundle OF
rather a singular appearance, which, as he
nearcd me, and upon close examination, | dis
covered to be Il human being. The gentlemen
seated themselves opposite me, the enc having
the bundle depositing it carefully on the seat
beside him, and taking off Il small great coat
from around his charge, revealed to my aston
ished gaze one Of the most singular looking
specimens Of humanity my eyes ever rested
upon. gazed for several moments upon this
little man (for it was indeed a man III years, }
perfectly wonder struck. He was undoubtedly
the smallest excuse for human being L ever
beheld. He is apparently about 45 years Of
age, with light brown hair, dark complexion,
a little cunning looking hazel eye, and quite a
heavy beard for one OF his size, which in color,
I would say, is little inclined to be red |
will not attempt to describe bis figure, though
strange to say, this little Old man has a perfect
use Of every lint, and could walk about and saovc
in any position His voice was OF d very Pc
culiar gutcryl sound, and net unlike the croak-
ing Of frog He kept up conversation with
his companions all the way to Alexandria. His
exact height which | ascertained from the gen
tlemen who hal him in charge is % inches.
His name is Chapin-Col. Chaplin as he Is
called, aud is I native OF this State, residing
some where in the neighborhood of Lynchburg.
1t appears that he has been to Baltimore i0r
some time past, and was HOW en- route to Cui-
pepper. His appearance On the train excited
much curiosity, and during the time the train
remained standing, it was crowded with curl
osity seekers both in Washington and this
place. BORAX.

success and prosperity Of the whole system,

strennously, and thus Tar successfully, la
bored to avert and suppress. az
This paragraph seems to us ambiguous.
What the Questions" are that will arise"
out of bill giving the coiored children
moderate share of school facilities, on most
equitable terms, and 'lead TO disorder"
etc, We cannot understand, and dare not
profanely conjecture on such solemn mys-
teries.
Query lst Does the board simply mean,
by the deprivation of the full benefit Of
the Schools etc, that giving the colored
children share Of the school fund will
deprive the white children of the ancient
privilege of monopolizing all
Or, 2nd. Does it mean that the white
patrons will Withdraw their children from
a system of schools that recognizes the
rights of colored pupils
Or, Sd. viii soma of the present teach

PRODUCTION Of a colored element into the

To the last, We reply that, while any

How refreshing from such source. BY

the Confederate flag planted on the public
school buildings ?-the pupils marched in
procession, headed by the Superintendent,
and under the Confederate banner? and
school regulation adopted providing that
the anniversary of the act of secession be
thenceforth observed by the schools as a
