Refusal TO Receive Negro Testimony
in Texas.
New YORK, June 19-The Herald's spe-
cial says: General Griffin and General
Reynolds, of Texas, report to General
Sheridan that Judge Rives, of the Ninth
Judicial District of that State, in charge
to the grand jury OF the Court, stated that
he should not receive the testimony of ne
groes, as the law of Congress on the sub
ject was unconstitutional, and he there
fore defied them. They also report the
same facts against Judge Dougherty who
stated in the headquarters of General Rey-
nolds that as regards the testimony OF ne
groes he would not recognize the law or
authority of Congress, and will be bound
only to the sovereign State of Texas.
Reports of a like character are coming in
almost daily from the different sections OF
this State.

The Paris correspondent of the Ne,o York
Daily Times, writing of American contri-
buttons to the Exposition, says:
"Messrs. Mason & Hamlin, of New York,
have sent beautiful collection of cabinet
organs. The workmanship of the cases
compares favorably with the best speci-
mems of the kind in the French department.,
and the designs are light, rich and elegant
1t is only of late years that the cabinet or
gan has taken a legitimate place in the
ever-extending family of musical instru-
ments. In its old form, it was coarse
provocation to psalm-singing loud in
ducement to howl in short or long metre.
The grossness and inequality of its scale
sufficed to cover up every defect of the
performer, even the custom of singing
through the nose, which is yet prevalent
in certain pious and occidental districts.
Messrs. Mason Sc Hamlin were among the
first to seriously consider the possibility OF
changing toy into an instrument of mu-
sic. Under their hands, the various regis
ters have been equalized, and the whole
character of the instrument is thereby rem
dered homogeneous. The quality of the
tone is clear and vocal, and the contri-
vances for blending it in many forms are
ingenious without being complicated. In
Europe they still adhere to the rough, loud
tone, which withIus has been totally super
seded. Messrs. Mason & Hamlin have,
therefore, to struggle against q prejudice,
or rather prediction. Some of the
most eminent organists in Paris have al
ready declared in their favor, and hope
that the jury may do the same. They are
alone in the honor of fghting the rest OF
the world. and it would be pleasant to re-
cord that victory had perched upon their
banners. -4s.is u o.

TUESDAY, 22ND OCTOBER 1867.

In our last number we inserted an advertise
ment from the "Rum-shop keepers in Christian
sted." These "Rum-shop keepers" complain
much of The violation of their rights and the
trespasses on their privileges committed by
others. But, let US, in the name of justice, ask
these conference.-the vendors of spirituous IL
quors-if, while they are vociferatlng so loudly
against others, can conscientiously say that they
fulfil to the very letter, THE LAW, for retailing
spirituous liquors. We believe not; for very
many of them sell Rum-not as the ordinance
'bids-it being we'll known that the Rum, so
called Ship Rum, should be, at least one years
old and that a commission should inspect the
Rum-Shops, twice a year. This, then, not re-
gularly practised-not even done at all-why
should complaints be made, without even the
shadow of proof. The L%icensefor selling spiri-
tuous liquors, is, certainly given, according TO
the law. Abrogate not then, We Rum-shop
keepers that law, which binds you to fulfil your
duties, and stick to this proverb |Do unto others,
as you should wish Others do unto YOU"

"The rule providing for the payment
of claims by five annual investments was
made on the formation of the Society as
a necessary precaution against any extra
ordinary run which may have been made
on its Funds in the early stages of its
operations, but except in two cases, when
the Society was in it's infancy, the Gus
tom has been to meet all claims within
three months; and even in the two cases
alluded TO, the amounts were cash paid
in one instead of fUe years."
