The blacks of Charlotte, N. G., refused 10
assist at the burial Of one Of their color man
named Means, who died on Thursday last, be-
cause he had voted the Conservative ticket.
The Times says:
This fact coming to the ears Of one of the
leading citizens, he made it known. and at 9
o'clock on Saturday morning thirty-iyc or for
ty gentlemen went to his house, and proceeded
with the body to the cemetery. They had
prepared coffin, and all other arrangements
for decent burial. Thus he was buried by
his white friends, and z beautiful wreath of
evcrgreens placed upon his grave. The SCR
vices were conducted by the Rev. Mr.. Haltom,
of the Methodist Church. -

The subject of a reduction in the expenses
of the army is considered in England. The
Baltimore Sun says :-''If the English have
reason to complain in consequence of the grea-
ter economy Of. the German military system,
what shall we say of our own, which costs
nearly nine and half millions more than the
cost Of the British army, which is three times
as large as ours, and costs nearly thirty four
millions more than the estimated cost of the
German federal army, more than five times
the number of our own ?'

yesterday, the case of H. B. Tyler vs. J. D.
Defrees to recover property sold under the
Con6scation law, was under consideration. The
plaintiff filed anamended application setting

pleaded does not stop him from urging the act
Of July II, 1852 asa bar to the plaintiff 8 right
to bring suit to the property in controversy.
The defendant joined issue in the fact Of seiz-
ure and demurred to the remainder Of the repli
cation.

FREEDMEN's VILLAGE.-Another example
of the truth of the aphorism that everything
happens tor the best, is seen in the following
extract from thu report of the board OF officers
detailed to investigate the particulars OF the
late disturbance at the Freedmens Village IN
this county:
1.-THE result OF the census taken shows that
there has been no oger-issue OF ratlons to de,
pendents. The total number OF adults entitled
to rations as dependents is 553; the number OF
dependent children (who draw halt rationsl IS
1906; making a total of dependent rations COL ;
which, together with five rations ISSUED to
white employees, makes total OF G56 ratlons
daily. The board were Of opinion that a large
numbsr'of the freed people now residing IN the
village, classed as dependents, are able to pro-
vide their own support. Some OF these are
children of dependents, who have become OF
suitable age to care for themselves since they
were sent there; others were sick and have re-
covered, others are the wives OF permanently
disabled husbands. AS matter OF economy,
the board respectfully recommend that the
ASYLUM of Freedmen's Village te.dlscontlnued
as rapidly as practicable; first. closing the hos
pital by removing the sick to Freedmen's Hos
pitsl, Washington, d. c.. secondly, transfer
ring the inmates to tenements adjoining Freed
mems Hospital, Washington, D. g., as soon as
the same can vacate, j. e., those dependents
permanently disabled by age or disease. -

The PEOPLES CANDIDATE-The only NOM
nation lately made without previous caucusing
is that which pronounces S. Blondheim, corner
of King and Fairfax streets, to be the greatest
clothier upon this continent Every Congress
sional District in this and every other State
bears the same testimony. He has such vast
stock of goods that no man, homely or shapely,
straight or bowed, can fail to be- fitted at five
minutes notice. The most pleasing part of the
matter to the intending purchaser is, that you
there get suit of handsomely made clothing
for the money the unmade material would cost

New York, July 'lO.-The Herald OF this
morning says that the Democratic party
has decided that the next President shall be
Grant Mr. Seymour against Grant amounts
In Democratic surrender, or disbanding OF
the Democratic party.
The Times says that the Democratic ticket
will not bring out even full vote, and that II
will disgust the non-partisan element, and
nothing but a series OF miracles IN save the
party from defeat.
The Tribune, after recounting the former po'
litcal course Of Seymour says: IF this man canbe
chosen President over Grant, then the patriot
blood shed in the war vas shed in vain.
The World says Seymour is the first states
man in the Democratic party lie possesses
every personal qualification and accom- lishm ent
which will bc6t him for the Chief Magistrate
of great nation lie has a strong grasp oil
the question relating to the restoration OF the
shattered prosperity of the country, and his
election will establish confidence both at home
and abroad in the financial honor of the coun-

mour will make a far stronger President than
Chase.
The Sun says Seymour is an eminent ex-
ponent Of the Democratic party, but don
think Blair will add to the success OF the ticket.
