/. SUNDAY CoLoRED ScHooL.-Amld all the
enlargement between the white ard black
races in the South, which demagogues,- tor
their own base purposes, have produced, there
are some If the colored people who have not
been deceived by the hollow professions OF their
new born friends but have steadtastly adhered
to those whose regard for their best interests
they have long since proved. 10 such, the olu
citizens owe it to themselves to give every en-
couragement and assistance on all proper oeca-
sions and for all proper purposes:
Now, there is little Sunday School OF col,
ored children, kept under the direction OF the
Pastor of st. Mary's Chu ch, and taught by
benevolent ladies and q II lemen, true friends
of the colored race, who Sunday after Sunday,
are learning, not to hale the white man and
live on the property of others, but to love God
and their neighbors, white aud black, and to
prepare themselves for useful occupations;
These children are to give an Exhibition and
Concert at ST. Mary's Hall, tonight, Tor the
purpose of raising money to buy meiodeon
for their sunday School, and they ask the ald
Of their white friends 10 the enterprise. Their
performance will nor, probably, be a very 1ne
one for those who We them IN charge, are
persons whose services are required III many
other fields Of usefulness, and they have not
been able to devote much time to preparation,
but have done all they could, and if their friends
will honor them with their presence, they VIII
try to entertain them. At all events, let all
friendly to their enterprise, buy tickets, Whtth-
er they 90 or not. OLD VIRGINIA.

Soup HOUSE The committee on the soup
house have introduced European custom,
which is very amusing and will be quite profit
able, and aid in supplying that valuable estao-
shment, with meat, vegetables, &c.
The cauldron in which the soup is made is
very capacous, capable of furnishing thous-
and African and one hundred white citizens
with soup daily. Into this cauldron pieces OF
meat weighing from one half to four pounds are
placed. Each applicant is entitled to bowl
of soup, free of charge, and for one cent is en-
titled to Fish the boiler" This part Of the
matter is novel and interesting
A pitchiork is provided and each person
paying his "copper" steps up on the platform,
and is entitled to three dips in the soup pot.
He is entitled TO all the fork catches.
Yesterday the soup house was filled with
spectators, some Of whom, we regret to say,
bet largely on the results.
One little boy bore off, on the first fly, " -
lbs of meat
We noticed amongst the spectators OF this
unusual game some of our most distinguished
lawyers, merchants, and others. 5.

graph brings accounts Of the proceedings Of
the Reconstruction Conventions in the South
The Georgia Convention has adopted section
of the proposed Constitution providing for a
pol-tax, not to exceed 81, to be devoted ex-
clusively. to educational purposes. General
Meade in response to numerous inquiries as to
the construction to be placed upon certain or
dinances of the Convention legalized by him,
says he has no leisure, nor is it his province,
to answer; that the ordinances in question are
part Of the laws Of the State, and will be en-
forced The Florida Convention has notified
the Treasurer Of that State to bold all moneys
in his possession subject to it's order. General
Meade has instructed the Convention to levy a
direct tax for its expenses, and has promised
his assistance, if necessary, in its collection.
The South Carolina Convention has excluded
the reporters and editors OF the Charleston
Mercury from its sessions, on account of at.
tacks upon its members An ordinance was
passed providing for taxation for the expenses
OF the Conventlon-$75, 000 The Louisiana
Convention has adopted an article disfranchis-
Ing until 1878 all persons who held important
executive, legislative or judicial offices under
the Confederate State Governments, or who
resigned positions under the u. s. Govern
ment to assist in the war The North Caro-
lima Convention was engaged in discussing N ca
surcs Tor the relief of the people of that State.

RECIPIENTS OF GOVERNMENT BOUNTY

RECIPIENTS OF GOVERNMENT BOUNTY
A complaint was made last evening by Major
Townsend Superintendent Of the Kendall
Green Park barracks, against two of the inmates
of the place, named John Reeder and his wife
Martha Recder for unaWfully possessing
themselves of stove, bedstead, and bed cloth
ing belonging to the Government 1t appeared
from the statement of Maj. Townsend that, at
ter the late fire at Kendall Green he provided
room in the uninjured portion of the build
ings for John and Martha and Johns brother
and his wife, and furnished them with the
stove and other furniture for use until they
could get money enough to furnish themselves
with such necessities Of housekeeping. The
rule established by the Bureau in such cases is
Invariably TO require permission from the
Superintendent either to move in or remove
from the tenements OF the barracks before doing
So This family has been treated with good
deal of kindness for over two years by the
Major who discovered that they we're living on
the bureau for the sole purpose of getting all
they could Of the bounty provided for them at
the expense the country. The men are able
bodied aud young, aud might make good
living for themselves But last evening they
lifted from their comfortable quarters 10 the
barracks, taking with them the above named
articles, and removing to a shauty outside the
barracks. The Major on learning the facts,
went to hunt them up, and after long and
close search discovered their hiding place and
entered. Martha, in reply to his questions,
denied any knowledge Of the matter, and pro.
fessed to be entirely ignorant as TO what had
been done with the property taken. An ex
animation discovered al the missing articles in
an adjoining room, and John and Martha were
accordingly arrested and brought to the station
house. Justice Walter, after hearing the
statement Of Maj. Townsend, committed J John
to jail for court and Martha was severely lee
tured and permitted to 90 home. The mother
of these young men is the woman who, in a fit
Of drunkenness, kindled the fire which caused
the destruction Of the barracks some days ago.
