RANDOIPH,s BLACK COLONY.

The fairest experiment on any scale of
magnitude that has been made 10 this eour-
try to lest the capability of negro com
munity to maintain itself, was the notable
one made By the celebrsted John Randolph,
of Roanoke, who, by his will, emaRcipaled
a considerable number Of his slaves, who
were subsequently, settled on good land in
the free State Of Ohio. The latest mention
of these negros we find in the Cincinnati
Enguirer, and it comes from a gentleman
who resided for some time near John Ran
dolph's colony Of blacks. His statement
is that the original settlers we're extra intel
ligsnt negroes that they we're established
on farms having good houses and fences,
aud we'll stocked with domestic animals
and implements and requirements that
their condition was better than that Of the
small. even moderate, farmers OF the neigh
borhood, but now what remains Of them
and their descendants are sunk into state
bordering on barbarism, Stunned by their
nejghbors, except the Quakers, who still
extend charity to and Communicate with
| them that their houses are dilapidaied
their fences rotied down, their fields grown
up in briars, and their animals and imple
/ ments long since gone.

THREATENED EXPOSURE,

Mrs. Lincoln's negro seamstress, who
rejoices in the name of Keckley, and who
has given TO the public some piquant
scandal ofthe While House during IFS oc-
cupancy by the Liuoolns, in her book
Behind the Scenes" is said to feel very
sore over the abuse the Radical papers are
heaping upon her head for tellinga portion
Of what she heard and saw. The New
York correspondent of the Louisville
Democrat says
She says, that if they do not draw of
their fire, she will put another volume to
press, in which she will show up the ras-
calities and vilIainies of many Black
Republican, who at present passes for a
saint. During her residence with the
Lincoln family, she says circumstances
made her acquainted with many transac'
tions, which would make the public's hair
stand on end, but that she has refrained
from making them public only from high
sense of duty. Unless the attacks upon heI
cease, however, she says she will not con
siderherself any longer bound to silence"

We do not, in the ordinary affairs OF life,
rig up trip-hammer 10 crack walnut.
But the passages Of Mr. EvaTts' speech
most enjoyed both by the Senators and the
galleries were those in which his delicate
but emitting sarcasm was given the rein.
The speech was full of these, and they led
TO the most unrestrained merriment in the
court. Mr.. Evarts' manner was perfect in
lh~se passagg. As he laid the train for
his assault, he was as serious "a Judge,
and especially regardful Of those whom he
was about to attack. Presently, when the
Senate began to catch the coming point,
and the contagious laughter spread through
the chamber, his own face would light up,
and as he reached the point, his features
would be aglow with an expression OF
pleasure as natural and simple as a childs.
Nothing could have exceeded the innocent
and harmless delight expressed in his face
at the very moment that he was skinning
poor Boutwell, alive. That, by the way,
was the cruelest performance OF the four
days speech. Boutwell, sat through 1t all
at the table Of the managers; but his face
was flushed, he made a very constrained
effort at smiling, and he looked thoroughly
uncomfortable That night, and, indeed,
for day or two, his discontinue was the
laughter of the town. Scarcely less cruel
we're the thrusts and gibes at Butler" the
learned manager who has had the politeness
to say that We are mere attorneys, whose
intellects have been sharpened yet not
broadened by the practice Of the law"
When, after turning the ridieule Of the tit
tering galleries and ehuckling Senate upon
him by his laughable description Of his
opening speech as an effort at argument by
conclusion, after the fashion of the Fort
Fisher powder boat, he finally brought up
his declaration that the practice in Con-
gress, or rather the judgment Ofthe Senate,
should be the rule as to the propriety of
speech which the President and other Off
GERS should observe, and proceeded to quote
the coarse abuse of each other in which
Butler and Bingham had INDUCED in the
House. These gentlemen we're sitting next
| and facing each other, one at the end, and
the other at the side of the table. Bing-
ham faced the speaker, put good face on
il, and seemed rather to Onjoy the reading I;
but Butler was evidently wrathful. At
first he held book close up TO his face, and
affected to be engrOssed in its reading, then
throwing it down he sank into dumpy
heap on his chair, and glOwered with the
sirabismal eyes at the carpet.

THE EXTRAORDINARY EFFORTS
OF THE IMPEACHERS

The following picture, taken on the spot,
is from the Washington correspondent of
the New York Herald of May l
1t is necessary TO be here on the spot in
order to realize the extraordinary efforts
made by the impeachers to carry out their
programme of impeaching the President
and getting possession of absolute power.
They feel and admit that without this Sic
cess the Presidential election is lost, be-
cause it is now conceded, on all hands, that
Grant gives no strength to the ticket, and,
10 fact, is rather dead weight than any,
thing else, since he excites no enthusiasm
whatever, and as a candidate is regarded
ne a complete failure. Everything, there
fore, is staked on the success of impeach-
ment, for the Radicals confess that without
it their defeat in November is inevitable,
and even with it the result is involved in
serious doubt.
! The exposure of the part taken by But
Ter, Bingham, Stevens and Logan in the
big Alta Vela speculation of a million or
more, by urging forcible seizure of the
island on the President, in a letter dated
the oh of March, after impeachment had
AIA nONlLC uatG HbCtu HCINtu VII
the President to answer at the bar of the
Senate, has produced great sensation in
the Senate and in the community. These
ardent impeachers, who had arraigned the
President on the most trivial pretexts,
were the men who urged him during the
session of Congress to commit an act OF
war, the power to do which belongs TO Con-
gress alone, and that entirely for the adj
vancement Of pecuniary interests. The
| dates and circumstances Of the transaction
the withdrawal Of Judge Black from the
| counsel after having accepted that position
and conferred with those who are still act
| ing the fact that Col. Schaffer, one of the
attorneys for this monstrOus claim, wa.
chief Of "bottled up Buffers staff; the sig
natures of these four managers to the papel
aud those of other Radical chiefs, have al
conspired to produce unusual excitemen
here. The question is asked naturally
eaough, if the President had yielded Il
this indecent pressure of the four managers
by making war to recover the claim which
they favored 40 strongly, would he hav
been pursued with the raneonr that he ha
been? Does not his refusal TO lend III
government to this speculation explain thu
motive ofthe prosecution I?

DEAR SIR-Dr. Kendedy, bearer of this,
has some apprehension that Federal
officers, not citizens of Louisiana, may be
set up as candidates for Congress 10 that
State. In my view there could be no pos
sible object in such an election. We do not
particularly need members of Congress
from those States to enable us to get along
with legislation here. What we do want
is conclusive evidence that respectable citi-
gems of louisiana are willing TO be mem
