que to whom he was applying his remarks.
| Mr.. Ross said he applied his remarks just to
what he said Laughter
| Mr.. Washburne remarked that his colleague
| had made charge and refused to back it up.
Mr. Ros. said he had made no charge.
Some others Of his colleagues might act az
groolnsnen to expectant Presldentlal candl-
| dstes, who were the bondholders' candidates.
| MIR. Washburne said that if the gallant
soldier to whom the gentleman alluded Was
| present, bis colleague (Mr, Koss) would not
have dared to make the charge he did. Neither
himself nor his colleague (Mr: Farnsworth)
had, as some Of their friends had, loaded them
selves with contracts to make money out OF
the Government, and then used that money to
break down the Government nor had they
taken part with the public enemy III time of
war; nor had they voted against Furnishing
guerillas, nor colludel with the murder Of en-
rolling officers, and then c)me into the House
with their hands dripping with blood
| Mr. Ross protested that he had done none OF
the things with which his colleague charged
him. After many personal illusions between
the two gentlemen, Mr.. Ross resumed his seat.

I have been greatly interested to-day by a
visit to the school for colored children, held in
tho large building erected for that purpose, in
the southern part Of the city. The building
contains eight rooms plainly furnished tor
school purposes, six OF which are at present IN
use. The time at my command did not admit
of nv examining all of them, but the three
saw gave ample evidence of the zeal and devo-
ton of the teachers, and the capacity OF the
scholars. The lower classes of course could
not manifest much more than desire to learn,
which tho scholars seemed to feel, and which
was evidently producing its usual and legiti-
mate effect of opening and arouslng the mind,
and stimulating it to effort for improvement.
The first class however, surprised me by their
advancement The class in reading performed
very well; the answers in mental arithmetic
were ready and correct; the lesson in geogra-
ply showed great familiarity with outlines of
our own country and of Europe and the writ,
ing generally was good deal above the aver,
age Of scholars of the same age. Several
pieces of poetry we're rected by the scholars
with spirit and effect, and their singing was
excellent. | am not speaking Of these things
relatively, but absolutely. If any one doubts
the statement, or thinks my report too highly
colored, let him or her visit the school and see
whether it is SO. The number, of scholars in
the whole school is about three hundred. The
ladies' who have it in charge, think, deserve
thanks for their efforts to elevate a portion Of
our population in the scale Of intelligence and
responsibility. A NATIVE
