Supreme Court on the Visible Admix-
ture Bill, as given in the official re-
port:
No. 10. James B. Monroe ct al VS..
George W. Collins. Motion for leave
to file a petition in error to reverse the
Judgment of the District Court of
Greene county.
By THE CoURT-WELcH J., held:
l. Male citizens having q visible ad-
mixture-of African blood, but in whom
the white blood p~reponderates, are
white male citizens within the mean
ing Of the Constitution of Ohio, and
have the same right to vote as citizens
of pure white blood.
2. The Legislature have no power,
either directly or indirectly, to deny or
abridge the constitutional right of the
t~citiZen to vote, nor, unnecessarily, to
impede its exercise and laws passed
professedlY to regulate its exercise Oh
prevent its abuse, must be reasonable,
uniform and impartial.

ed March Goth, 1871, &C., providing
that clerks and judges of elections shall
not be liable for damages for rejecting
the votes of persons having a visible
adm;xture of African blood, are in their
spirit, scope and effect, calculated to
impede, and in a great measure to de-
feat the exercise of the right of suffrage
by legal voters having such visible adj
mixture of African blood, by. imposing
upon them unreasonable burdens of
proof, and limitations as to kind and
amount of evidence required of them,
by implicitly authorizing the uncondi-
tional rejection of their votes ; by de-
nying to them the same right of action,
which is accorded to others for the
violation of the right; and by discrimi-
mating against them and in favor of all
other classes of voters as 20 punishment
and penalties for q violation of the
election laws I; and are, therefore, I'M
constitutional and void.
Motion oyerruled.

From FarmingfOn.

DEAR CuRoN1CLE-Satirday May 30th
was a day of sad reflection and great in.
terest to the citizens Of this place. In an
swer to the call made by the noble Gen
eral Logan the post of the G.. A. r. at
this place place convened and in memory
of the honored dead, who fell IN defense
Of freedom, and the glorious struggle for
national preservation, paid these fallen
comrads the tribute of their love and res
pect by strewing the sweetest flowers OF
spring, mingled with their tears above the
graves. The scene l0as touching, kneeling
around the marble monument on which
stands the names Of those boys we loved ;
they placed their offerings, the only and
purest gift they could bestow, upon the
consecrated soil beneath which rests these
martyred brothers, while the Dirge by the
Parkman and Mesopotamia Bands made
the occasion truly solemn. Though we
regretted the unpleassntness of the wealth
er vet it seemed betting that whilea ma
ton were shedding their tears, the clouds
should weepln common with them. Con-
sidering the day; the crowd was great,
and the most strict order preserved through
out. The speskerProf.A. y. Graf, of West
ern Reserve Seminary, made the occasion
doubly interesting. In beauty of Ian
guage, c~lesrness of thought, and familiar
ity with historical events, the speech
would be difficult to excel. Considering
the time the g. A. r. had for preparation,
the day exceeded the expectation of even
its members, The post has in Its body
of the best men in town, men whose
military exploits have wen for them last
ing honor. God bless them with the
Of their principles, the loyalty of
their cause, they can but fail to become
an honored instrument in the hands of the
TO suppress treason and pun
ish traitors.
The w. r. Seminary located, here is
present fourishing and prosperous.
The session nesrly closed, has been one of
unusual interest, while teachers and stu
dents look forward with sad reflections to
the hour, when they must seperate to min
gle in the busy scenes of Lille. The coming
week will be one of much interest. The
of Rev. Stever and Dr.. Wood
on Tuesday and Thursday evening
Will be greeted with pleasure by the lee
.ure loving part of community, and the
exercises of Wednesday evening
will be attended largely No pains is be-
ng spared to make Commencement inter-
sting and pleasant, a splendid dinner is
,eing prepared by the citizens tor that day
md all will find themselves well enter
aimed. The Alumni meet the evening of

RA- On Friday the Senate passed
what is known as the Gold Contract bill,
which provides that any contract,
hereafter made, specifically payable in
coin, shall be legal and valid, and may
be enforced according to its terms,
anything in the bill relating to legal
notes to the contrary Notwithstanding.
The bill has been repeatedly advocated
by some Of the best financial authorities
in the country. 1t will be the largest
and most significant step in the direc-
ton of specie payments, that has yet
been taken. 1t will establbh real
instead of fictitious values, and will
gradually and surely infuse into the
public credit a security and confidence
which do not at present exist. The
bill is of course not compulsory, but it
leaves it possible for every man to
make contracts, in buying and selling
any species of property, at gold price,
which may be enforced. 1t is really
only bringing the commercial custom
of California into more general use.
Let the House not adjourn without
passing it.-CeUeL1nd Herald.

First Gun in Ohio.

A judicial election was held on Mon
day of last week, in the counties of
Gala, Meigs, Atheus and Washington.
The Republican candidate was elected
by 1915 majority, a gain Of 221 on the
majority for Gov. Hayes hstfall. This
is a favorable and cheering opening of
the campaign in Ohio, and shows that
the Republicans have the strength to
carry the State by a rcusing majority,
If due effort is made to get the voters
out. Washington county, which elect
ed two Democrats to the Legislature
last fall now gives 300 Republican
majority.

Honor TO Soldiers Graves in
kIhsman.

On Saturday last, throughout the ex.
panse of the land, in nearly every city
and hamlet, 8 custom was inaugurated.
which it is hoped will be observed from
year to year, and handed down from
posterity to posterity. 1t was a beauti.
fui, 8 touching tribute, to the memory
of the dead, in which comrades, friends
and kindred mingled to scatter fra
GRANGE and incense, and breath a prayer
or drop a tear over the grave of an
honored hero. A number of the citi-
zens of Kinsman met at the Academy,
and spent some time in making wreaths
and boquets from the choicest spring
flowers, wild and cultivated. After
partaking of some refreshments kindly
furnished by the ladies, the friends and
comrades of the deceased proceeded to
the cemetry, to strew flowers and deco
rate the graves of our honored COM
rades. As We passed each grave, Mr..
John T. Yeomans gave a short history
Of the deceased.
l might mention the names of those
| knew most intimately, but forbesr to
make distinctions, where all did so
well, while 1 might, too, neglect to
mention the name of some humble
private of the grand army of the dead,
who nobly did all that man could do.
On the square was the emblem of our
nations honor flung to the breeze, its
folds floating in proud defiance, and
none loving their country, who looked
on this flag but could feel proud 10
claim that it had never yet known de-
feat or been trailed in the dust in any
war through which it had been carried.
When the graves we're all decorated,
the martial band escorted US back to
the Academy, where we appointed a
committee of five to have charge of the
next annual decoration of the soldiers
graves. After a few appropriate re-
marks by Mr.. John T. Yeomans and
William A. Levin, we adjourned,
that the soldiers and citizens
would turn out more generally at our
next annual decoration. SOLDIER.
