The Cleveland PLAIN Dealer says Don
Piatt, the Washington correspondent Of
the Cincinnati Commercial, has been hold
ing n talk with an intelligent negro, a
Southern delegate to the colored conyen~
tion, lately In session at Washington, in
reference TO the future of the negro race.
The theory assumed by the negro, if true,
presents in the most revolving light the
result of the ofiicious intermeddling of
pious New England with this class of
people. The following is an extract from
the conversation referred to:
"You have a right, then, 10 anticipate
bright future for your race"
My friend paused moment, and then
said sadly:
':No, sir; have no bright anticipa-
tons. In a few generations the colored
race of America will have disappeared
We have taken the vices with the virtues
of the stronger race, and they are fatal to
u.s.
81 don't clearly understand you
''Well, sir, it is generally believed that
the black race is hardy race. This is
not true. The average duration of life,
hiIdCt tliS HIilL, lilS pi'AiNSAhAO'is W 90
only ten years. The supply was kept up
by the masters care in breeding-it being
his interest Now, this is not the case,
and while the mortality continues through
dissipation, the increase through popula-
ton has fallen off painfully. On planta-
tions and in neiGhborhoods where, before
tie war, children swarmed almost, you
scarcely find one now'
'Why, how do you account for that
What becomes of the children %
'The mothers have learned from New
England how to kill them. You know,
Sir, that New England is dying out from
a lack of Yankees, and the poor colored
people have not been slow to learn. Bet
while the whites receive a fresh supply
from emigration, the coIored race has
none"
We are 10th to believe that this is true.
1t is 100 horrible to imagine that the New
England element that went South ostensi-
bly, TO civilize and christianize the poor
negro, has, instead, introduced among
them that which is ten times worse than
their former condition of slavery, the most
revolving of ali crimes, infanticide. What
terrible responsibility rests upon the
heads of those who under the guise of
Christianity, have lured this poor Ignorant
race to certain destruction

Mexican Adyices-An Unsucces Attempt to
Create a Revolution. =

Create u Revolution. -
SAN FRANCIsCo April 19.-Late Mazatlan
advices state that the attempt of Colonel Palacios
to create a revolution in Sinaloa has been
decided failure After escaping from Mazatlan
he proceeded to Colima, where he succeeded in
seducing the garrison. Entering the place and
finding no money in the mint heleyied contri-
button on the merchants of the city to the
amount of $2OO 900, but succeeded in raising only
$1,000; and not being able to sustain himself, he
disappeared. 1t is believed that he has gone to
Topic, relying on Losado for assistance. Before
Palacios left he proclaimed in favor OF General
Placedo Vegss as Governor of Sinaloa. The
proclamation created but little sympathy.
Mining, Legislative, and Other Intelligence.
Gold diggings have recently been discovered
near Mazatlan and attracted a crowd of people.
Considerable gold has been taken out. One lump
contained $1,000 in gold.
The city of Mazatlan has effected loan OF
800 900, for the purpose of building hospital.
Everything was quiet in Lower California.
Lopez has been declared commander OF the
militia, with garrison of 200 men.
The Legislative Assembly of Lower California
has been suspended altogether. The number OF
Government offices are increased, and the whole
administration is changed.
The mines of Sautonia are doing well.
Kidnappers have appeared in Sinaloa, and the
authorities have instituted stringent measures
against them.
SAN Francisco, April 19.-The Crown Point
and Kentuck shafts have been opened, and there
are no indications of fire. Water has risen
nearly to the 800 feet level, and 1t will take
several days to overcome it. An exploration
so far denotes the actual damage very slight.
The ship Czarowitch belonging to the Ameri-
can-Russian Commercial Company, arrived from
Sitka, and was sent back to this port IN charge
of revenue officers, with cargo. OF salt which
she took hence. A number OF vessels have
cleared for Alaska with assorted cargoes, with
the intention of trading with the Indians and
trappers. Anxiety is felt by the owners as to

Says the Wilmington Commercial OF last evening"
Mr. Gavin Thomson, of the firm of Thomson g.
Pascal, carriage manufacturers in this city, met
with painful accident on Saturday evening which
came near resulting seriously. He was fixing some
thing about his doorstep after dark, and man was
holding for him a common torch, such is used in
political professions, by the light OF which he was
working Mr. Thomson directed the man to lower
the torch little, and in complying with the direc-
tion it was upset, and stream OF blazing coal oil
poured on Mr.. Thomson's head and shoulders, which
set his clothes and hair He ran to the hydrant
and turned on the water to put his head under the
stream, but instead of eXtingushing the flames he
set fire to the fence adjoining the hydrant Luckily
a relative at this moment came upon the scene, and
wrapping his coat around the head and shoulders OF
the blazing man, smothered the flames Mr. Thom-
son was pretty badly burned about the face, one OF
his ears especially very much burned, but his inJu-
ries though painful, are not considered serious by
DR. Cameron, his physician

Special Despatch TO The Euening Teeqraph
The President and the Senate
WASHINGTON, Aprn D.-The President has
informed several Senators that he would send in
all the nominations he had to the Senate TODAY.
If the Senate remained here for several davs he
might send in more, but he could make an
pointments after the Senate adjourned as well
as when it was in session.
Foreign Ministers.
The Senate Committee on FOREIGN Relations
this morning authorized Mr.. Sumner to report
adversely on Mr.. Piles nomination as Minister
to Brazil, Carlisle to Stockholm, and w. H.
Russell, OF pennsylvania, Minister to Ecuador
1t was decided also to report j. Russell Jones,
Minister to Belgium, tavorably General Grant
made personal issue with the Scommittee in
the case of Jones.
All the other nominations for foreign missions
some ten in number, have been favorably agreed
upOn.
Unfortunate.
The Commerce Committee have agreed to re-
port adversely on five consular nominations
and have so notified the Secretary of State, if he
chooses to withdraw them.
Senator Ross Version of the Affair.
Senator Ross made personal explanation to-
day. relative to the published account of an in
terview between himself and the President a
few days ago. He said that, while the language
said to have been used on that occasion was in
correct, he had had an interview with the Presi-
dent at which he was both panied and surprised,
when the President remarked that any man who
had served for the last year and half under
Andrew johnson was not Republican, and
could not hold office under him. This policy of
the president accounts for the indiscriminate
removals which have been made
Thursday the Dav of Adjournment.
The Senate has agreed, by vote of 30 yeas
to ~ nays, to adjourn on Thursday at 4P. NJ.
Who is Hes
The Committee on Commerce would be clad
to know who Kleptomand, Consul, from Phila-
delphia, is? The question was eagerly asked this
morning, but neither Cameron nor Scott was
able to give the mans name.
E4KWRWhy They Have Been Delay yed. SKM HH
Nearly all the consuls from Pennsylvania have
been appointed without the knowledge or con-
sent of the Senator's and they do not seem to
care much whether they are rejected or con-
firmed. This Iaccounts for their nominations
remaining so long in the committee. Had they
been known to the Senators from the State,
they would have been confirmed long ago. The
prospect is that several of them will be rejected.
