Equality.

Rev. Mr.. Butler, a colored minister,
addressed the Kentucky Colored Con-
vention, at Louisville, few days ago,
as follows:
"The future of this country depends
not so much on what party is in power
as it does on the removal of all disabil-
titles; they weigh down its people. Then,

In E. Kirke's last novel, "Among the

s'There are nottwenty of these old fam
lilies now left in Virginia. Your lead
ing men all sprung from sewers and

from Tennessee TO avoid arrest for horse
stealing; Barnwell Rhett's was an Irish

sold for hundred pounds of tobacco to
pay his passage from an English prison.
The original document which conveyed
the ancestor of the. turbulent Governor
of Virginia to planter for enough to-
bacco to pay his passage from a London
Jail, is now in the library of Mr.. Peter
Force, in Washington.

Our Troops in Walrussia Threat

The Washington Correspondent of the
New York Tribune says that dispatches
have been received at the War Office
within the last few days, stating tbatthe
soldiers sent TO take possession of the

or manned for life before supplies could
