WAR OF RACES. --Two ballicose ur-

fsticuff yesterday afternoon on Church
street. After several rounds the white
boy was laid at full length upon the
ground by we'll directed blow from
his black adversary, who followed up
his advantage by springing upon his
enemy and demanding him to boiler
"nough." This the white boy refused
IS do, whereupon the black pugilist re-
newed the fight. They were soon
parted, without either party having
sustained any serious injury. The
black scamp, however, got the best of
it, and it was a pretty good illustration
of the bottom rail on top" when he had
the white boy stretched beneath him.

NARROW EsCAPE--A team--(horse
and wagon on Wide Water street, mar
rowly escaped from being run over by
train of cars yesterday afternoon.
The vicious, obstinate animal banked
on the track, which the driver attempt
ed to cross before the train passed, and
had it not been for timely discovery and
great exertion the horse and dray, if not
the driver, would have been team no
longer. The train came down upon the
team, but as it was, fortunately, moving
slowly it merely pushed it along the
track short distance when it was ex-
treated from its perilous setsration
This is another warning to teamsters.

From the above figures it will be
seen that the whites have in both regis
trations, majority of 119, and as there
are 60 negro convicts whose names are
to be scratched from the lists it will in
crease the total white majority to 179.
This fattering success for the whites
is owing mainly to the indefatigable
and praiseworthy efforts of the canvas
sers of the respective wards. 1t is a
triumph to which they largely contri-
buted, and the valuable services thus
rendered will not be forgotten hereafter
by a grateful people.
The result of the registration has full
ly satisfied the hopes of the most san
guine, and is, we predict harbinger of
final victory for the Walker party,
which is the party Of the administra-
ton and equal rights to all men. The
greatest enthusiasm pervades our city
at the result of this registration, an
enthusiasm which will live only to in
crease when our standard bearer Gil.
bert c. Walker raises his victorious
banner above the Richmond Capitol.
And he will do it--not the least doubt
of'it-if Virginians do their duty.

The following little pleasantly showing how woman, dou5tless::a rights advocate, leu chred" herself out of husband by trying to obtain more than the law allows, we find in late number ofthe N. N Herald:
 Inthe case of Eugene Simonet Us Floreatine Simonet Judge Brady granted 8 decree of di~ vorce yesterday iu favor of the plaintiff The Rev. Mr. Verren, pastor of the church du St. Esprit, in twenty-second street, testified, as the principal witness in the case, to the effect that on the l7th day of December, 1856, he united the plaintiff and defendant in the holy bonds of matrimony; That on the 26th of April, 1867, the defendant came to him, rep rcsenting herself as the widow of plaintiff, and bad a second matrimonial knot tied, uniting her future de8tinies with a gentleman named Benard subsequently, the fact revealed itself that her first husband was alive and kicking, and on discovering thls state of affairs the second husband, very naturally, sued out a divorce, which he obtained. Husband the first thought divorce would likewise be very beneficial to himself, and he obtained it yes erday as above stated.

Heroes.

The history af science and literature affords brighter examples of heroism than are to be found in the records of battles and sieges. The leaders in the reformations that have taken place in science and literature, have seldom failed to meet with opposition that would have driven those who were not imbued with the true spirit of heroism from the prosecution of their work. Fitchs contemporaries thought him deranged because he talked of pro polling boats by steam, and Fulton was looked upon by the majority of his countrymen as wild visionary. Calico suffered years of imprsonment on ac- count of his discoveries in astronomy. And was there no heroism in the lives of the masters of
 terature2 Did 1t require no courage to pub fish such poem as Paradise Lost in the reign of Charles the Second2 Such an act was sure to bring upon who perpetrated it thewitso of that age How much nobler is the heroism that leads one to labor on in obscurily and neglect for the accomplishment of some great work, than that which animates him who, cheered on by the plaudits of his fellow w-men strews earth with the Hteless forms Of the vic$ tins of his ambition Roger Bacon was greater hero than any knight that fought in the crusades for while the latter but followed up the path marked out for him by the folly and superstition of his age, the former had the courage to contend against the preiudices of his times. The knight gained the applause of the popuIace, by his zealin the cause Ofsuper- stition. while the philosophers exertions in the cause of science consigned him to prison. These noble sufferers in the cause of arts, sci- ences and literature, have left their examples behind them as a rich legacy to all future times, and their names shall outlive that of the heroes of the sword Tasso's name shall sur- vive that of Charles the Twelfth,-C AdrocQte.

ON NATURE.

The works of God are fair for naughs, Unless our eyes, in seeing, See hidden in the thing the thought That animates it's bein g. The out~ari form is not the whilo, Of every part is moulded To image forth an inward soul, That dimly is unfolded. Tho shadow pictured in the lake But every tree that tremblss, Is cast for more than just the sake of that which it resembles. The dew falls nightly, not alone Because the meadows need it, But on an erran of it own,
 To human souls tLat need it. The stars are lighted in the skies, Not merely for their shinIn 2, But, like looks of loving eyes,
 Have meanings worth divining. The waves that moen along the shore, T.e winds that sigh in blowing, Are sent to teach mistic lore Which men are visa in knowing. The clouds around the mountain peak, The rivers in their win ding, Have s.crets which. to all who seek, Are secrets in the finding. Thus nature dwells within our reach, But though we stand so near her, We will i i terpret half her speech With cars too dull to hear her. Whoever, at the coarsest sound, Still listens to the finest, Shall hear the noisy world go round To music the diYinest. Whoever yearns to see aright,
 Because his heart is tender, Shall catch glimpse of heavenly light In every earthly s lendoi, So, since the universe began,
 And till it shall be .3el Tho soul of nature, soul of man, md soul of God are blended.

ARTICLE I.

Every reproduction in one of the two coun- tries of trade marks affixed in the other to certain merchandise to prove it's origin and quality, is forbidden, and shall give ground for an action for damages in favor of the injured party, to be prosecuted in the courts of the country in which the counterfeit shall be proven just as if the plaintiff were subject or citizen of that country.
 The exclusive right to use a trade mark for the benefit of citizens of the United States in France, or of French subjects in the territory of the United States, cannot exist for longer period than that fixed by the law of the coun. try for its own citizens.
 If the trade mark has become public prop. erty in the country of its origin, it shall be equally free to all in the other country.

 If the owners of trade marks, residing in either the two countries wish to secure their rights in the other country, they must deposit duplicate copies of those marks in the Patent Office at Washington, and in the clerks office of the Tribunal of Commerce of the Seine, at Paris.
