THE SlTuATIoS.-All over the South the
State Judges, as if secretly encouraged by
the hope that they would be sustained at
Washington, not only by the Executive, but
by the judiciary, are making decisions and
perpetrating atrocities that would disgrace
the very worst days of slavery. Even as l
write, we have intelligence Of the decision of
North Carolina judge, command
ing whipping of negroes, in defiance Of the
civil rights bill, under the old slave code,
aud coolly direct indictments to be issued
against the Union officers for refusing to en-.
force this infamous decree. The Louisiana
State judges openly defy the civil rights bill.
The Governor of Mississippi, under the sane.
ton Of the President, has taken the same
course. Judge Magrader, of Anna Arun>
del County Nd, orders the sale of colored
man into slavery under the old Maryland
code, and DEGREES such punishment for of.
fences committed by negroes, which, per-
petrated by whites, would have been fol-
lowed by sentance to the penitentiary.
The President has revoked the order of
Gen. Sickles in South Carolina, which for
bade the use of the whipping post. One of
the Virginia judges, at late court held q.
Alexandria in that State, openly defed the
te.t oath, and admitted returned rebels to
practice before him and to sit on juries.
There is not today a State Judge in
Texas, Louisiana, Georgia, Alabama, Miss
issippi, or any other Southern State, not ex-
cludng Kentucky, that does not rule in the
spirit Of slavery before slavery took arms
agains. the Government. The eifee. of
these continuous outrages upon liberty and
Law is far more injurious even than the inhu>
mauity of the ignorant, misguided popalace.

Reconstruction illustrated.

Lieutenant Garthwaite, who served
under General Milroy in Tennessee,
gives the following somewhat detailed
history Of the treatment meeted out
to him and his family by the recon
structed in Tennessee since the devel-
opment of the Presidents policy:
When our troops under General
Rosecrans, had possession of Ten
nessee, Mr.. Garthwaite was appointed
post su,ler at REGARD station. in
Franklin county, which place he held
for over year. When the war
closed, at the solicitation of the
citizens of that section of the coun-
try, he consented to remain at the
place and continue in trade, and to
indentify himself with tile purchased
property, and built upon it, and also
moved his family there.
For time all things went along
smoothly, but as Johnson's policy be-
gan to be developed, hostility towards
the " Yankees" began to manifest
itself, and, with others, Garthwaite
was warned to leave the country.
Failing to dispose OF his property,
he was unable to leave ut the time
specified by the lovers Of johnson.
He was beset by them in the night,
hia property burned, himself and fam
lily abused, his money taken from him
and he was driven away destitute
When he reached Nashville he had
no money, but found friends who
helped him to means to go to Illinois.
He had been residing at Peora, but
has gone to Indianapolis to seek en-
ployment.

SPIRITUAL FAcTs.-That whiskey
is the key by which many gain an en-
trance into our prisons and aims
houses.
That brandy brands the nose Of all
those who cannot govern their appe-
ti,es.
That wine causes many to take .
winding way home.
That punch is the cause Of many
unfriendly punches.
That ale causes many ailings, while
beer brings many to the bier.
That champaign is the cause of
many real pain.
That gin-slings Slowed more than
the slings of old.

A Menaserie of Drunkards.

The most foolish predicament maj
can get into is to get drunk. Il
drunkenness every one shows hi
strongest aed most ardent passion
There are six kinds of drunkards
and if you will 60 into a city drinking
place, where there are dozen mef
under the influence Of liquor, you will
be sure to find these six different
animals.
The first IL ape-drunk. He leaps
and sings, and yells. and dances, ma
king all sorts of grimaces and cutting
up all sorts Of monkey shines" &c
excite the laughter of his fellows
Oh, terribly silly is the drunken
clown.
T. second is tiger-drunk. He
brcaAs the bottles, breaks the chairs,
breaks the heads Of his fellow carous.
ers, and if full Of blood and thunder,
His eyes are fired with vengeance,
and his soul raves with marderoas
fury. OF this sort are those who
abuse their families.
The third is bog-drunk. He rolls
in the dirt on the floor, slobbers and
grunts, and going into the streets
makes his bed 10 the first ditch or
filthy corner he may happen to fall
into. He is heavy, lumpish, end
sleepy, and cries in grunting way
for little more to drink.
The fourth is puppy drunk. He
will weep for kindness, and whine his
love, aud hug you in his arms, ard
kiss you with slobbery lips, and pro-
claim how much he loves you. You
are the best man he ever saw. ard he
will lay down his money or life for you.
The fifth is owl drunk. He is wise
in his own conceit. No man must
differ with him, for his word is law
He is true in politics. and all matter
must be taken as authority. His arm
is the strongest, his voice the sweet
est, his horse the heetest, his turnips
the largest, his town the finest of all
in the room or land.
The sixth and last animal in our
menagerie is the fox drunk man. He
is crafty, ready to trade horses and
cheat il he can, keen to strike bar
gain, leering around with low cunning.
peeping thro' cracks. listening under
the ea-es, watching for some suspic-
ious thing. sly as fox. sneaking as
a wolf, he is the meanest drunkari Of
them all.

! right, or wrong, in deciding to expel
the coIored boy ? answer the Board
did wrong and the sub Director did
right in refusing to comply with the
the order of the Board. All orders
contraveEing the law should be dis
regarded. Neither can the Board
compel the colored boy to attend
school out Of his own District. Ifpar-
ents are foolish enough to withdraw
their children from school because
collored boy attends, they simply graft
ify their prejudice at the expense Of
their children The children are not
the first to complain. Color is not
crime in their eyes, and in nine cases
out Of ten there is no difficulty where
the pupils are not tampered with.

had no authority to adopt such res

Ny advice is that the Board visit
the school and encourage the people
to again send their children, and to
remember that colored people have
some rights that are entitled to re-
spect, and that whatever else we may
feel disposed 70 deny them, we must
not deny them any ofthe benefits of

PfSsIoNs.-It is singular fact
that although but one Revolutionary
pensioner-Samuel Downing. Of Ed
inburgh, Saratoga county, y. Y. now
survives, there are no less than a31
widows of Revolutionary soldiers still
on the pension roll. The greater
longevity of women will not account
for this enormous discrepancy, and
the fact that pensioners and annuitants
,.iTe ..o-- .zaslns equally in fa,o Of
both sel.eS. Of course, the widows of
those killed in battle swelled the pro-
portion of female pensioners very
largely, but this could not have null
tiplied i 900 times, hardly 10 times.
Probably, in consideration that s.none
but the brave deserve the fair"t not to
speak of the pensions) the surviving
heroes were generally and even re-
peatedly blessed with youthful and
blooming brides. There are now. in
round numbers, Il, 900 inyalids, and
10000 widows and relatives on the
rolls, at an annual cost of eleven and
a-half millions of dollars.
