swore that the flour was mouldy, that

quested the woman to take qutntity of

loaves of bread from it and allow him to see
them at noon. Upon his return home.

Gen. Schofeld ordered in Richmond, that,
of the six cars belonging to the street rail
road company, four of them should be
open to the general public, whites and ne
sroes. while two shouh be set aside for
the use Of ladies'. children and their atten-
dants. The ladies' car is distinguished by
white wooden ball or the top. The way
the negroes behaved in assuming their
newly made privilege is thus described by
the Richmond (Va) Times. 1t says:
"The immense air assumed by most of
shc eclcred persons who took transporta-
ton On tie ears was s1tfemely amusing
Some of them seemed about to burst Will,

privileges, walked into a car and stretched

the conductor took issue with him, and In
formed him that he should either sit down
or leave the car POmpey obeyed, but
with bad grace.
The colored people are reported to be
very much distressed that they are rot al
lowed to ride in the ladies' cars, and it is
said they have determined that they will
ride in them, orders or no orders"
We presume the next point will be the
dictation by General Schofeld. iu accord

that the negroes shall ride in the ladies'
ears as we'll as in the others.

Senator Wilson Oh COnfissatiOn

We have heard a good deal during some
time past about the sword OF Dahoc!es
hanging over the heads of the Southern
ers, and over certain high officials, intim-
dating them to do certain things and to
abstain from doing certain others The
last we hear of this sword of Domocles is
through our special telegram from Charles
ton, published yesterday, and comes from
the distinguished Senator Wilson, who is
stumping the South Mr.. Wilson, in his
second speech at Charleston, on Friday
night last, told the white people that if
they coerced the negroes not to vote for
the Republican party. or attempted to pun
ish them by turning them out Of employ
ment and their holdings for voting for
that party, that would lead to confscatlon
and he (Senator Wilson, would then vote
for conGscating the property of men so Of
Tending. Now, we think there has beer
quite enough of this suspended sword, rod
or confscatiOn, especially when used, as in
this case, for partisan political purposes
Such talk is puerile, childish and altogeth-
er out of place. 1t is even worse than
that-it evinces disposition to exercise
tyranny over people who are bowed to
the earth in political matters, and to make
the condition of their restoration the sup,
port of a particular party. Besides, such
threats are entirely unnecessary, as the
reconstruction acts of Congress have laid
down explicitly the rule of action for the
Southern people, aAd the condition Oh
which they may be restorcd.--M T. Her

GRATIFYING CHANGE.-One of Il

GRATIFYING CHANGE.-One of the
most gratifying indications of the change
in public opinion, which is going on, is
the late municipal election in the city OF
Lancaster, Pennsylvania. This town, the
residence of Thaddeus Stevens, and the
capital of the strongest Republican county
in the Union, has just given Democratic
majority of $50, being gain Of $40 since
last fall This is rcble rebuke from
his townsmar of the arch Radical, which.
as coming from that source, he can not be
Indifferent to. If the change which has
taken place in Lancaster is an index of the
State; and it is fair to infer that it is, Penn
sylvania is certain TO go Democratic this
fall.

At the Paris Exposition it is said that
novelty will be on exhibition, in the shape
of an artificial horse. The ingeniously
constructed animal when ready for the
road will travel twenty-five miles without
stopping, and afterwards may be wound up
in few moments SO as to 60 as much far

this must be valuable acquisition, provi-
