The Belmont Chronicle has another
"Nigger Outrage" which will perhaps
be commented upon by the Democratic
press, and perhaps not. The Chronicle
sayss e
'tLast Saturday evening a young
blood Of the genuine Democratic per-
suasion undertook to force his atten-
tons upon Mrs Mary Muse, a colored
woman living near the Great Western,
in this county Mrs Muse was out
looking for her cows when she was met
by Mr. R H, of Morrstown,
who asked her if she didn't want to
make some money easy. When in
formed by her that she had as much
money as he had and didn't want any
of his, he drew out revolver, and
threatened to shoot her if she didn't
submit. Instead of submitting to the
embrace of this loving and amorous
anti-"nigger" Democrat, she raised n
alarm and the young gentleman of pure
Democratic affinties and affections was
compelled to decamp, but not until he
had threatened to shoot the object of
his "unbounding" desires, if she ever
told any person Of his attempt"
Mrs. Muse, however, had the pluck
to swear out a warrant against him, and
the gallant young copperhead decamp-
ed. Here is case for the Enquirer.
We have already called its attention to
several attempts by white men to raw
ish negro women, and it does not vet
rise up in the majesty of its wrath and
demand the disfranchisement of the
white race. This delay is inexplicable.
One case, (where the Democratic press
charged eolored ruffian at Washing
ton with the ravishment of three youn o
girls, and it turned out afterwards that
he had only frightened them and had
made no attempt of the sort, has fur
nished occasion for conclusive argu-
ments to the whole Democratic press
that the whole colored race ought 10 be
distranchised. Isn't the principle good
also for the white race7 Or, are we to
have a higher standard for the colored
man than the white ?-Columbus Journal.

"reminiscences Of the Press-.NO. s.
BY THE EDITOR,

Why do so many men stick to bu-
siness that does not pay theml One
reason why so many hang on to the
newspaper business, and nearly starve
at it, is because nearly everybody
thinks that he is fully competent to ed
it and publish paper, even If he fails
at nearly everything else, Why there
is this strange self conCeit in 50 many
men, | do not understand Another
reason is, that the management of q
paper requires something to be done
every day, There is no idle time.
Now, think as we may, about the plea
sure Of having nothing to do, yet | am
convinced that no man can enjoy any
considerable degree Of happiness, I'M
less he is regularly employed, Thus
tho newspaper man finds much of his
pleasure in the business, arising from
his regular aud constant employment,
Another reason is, that if the editor
has any kind of ability, and conducts
himself any way near as he should do,
his business gives him an influence aud
respectability that no other business
does, Aud all men are much alike in
this, that they love to be considered of
some ase in their day and generation.
There are various other reasons, such
as printers getting out of work, and
starting papers merely tor the sake of
getting something to do.

Our old friend l. T. Monahan, pub
fishes weak article in the last number
of the Chicago Herald, and closes thus:
"And now, Mr.. Editor of the Stand
ard! allow me to ask you a fairques-
ton, Are you and your party in favor
of allowing the offspring of the Amer
leans of African descent, the right OF
attending our Free Schools with the
white cbildrenl If fnot, are you in fa-
vor of ofappriating their share ofthe pub
lie money for their beaeft9 | am. II
you are, Why you thus discriminate
in favor of beneftting the child of the
Negro, while you object to giving the
benefit to the child of the Catholic.
s,s 1T. M.
We do not answer for our party, but
only as an individual oasni
We are in favor Of colored children
being educated in separate schools, on
account Of the prejudice against them.
We are not in favor of white Catholic
children being sent to separate schools,
because, it kept as clean as other chill
dren, being oftbe same race, Jthere is
no prejudice against them. We never
heard of negro children being
taught any doctrine that was danger
GUS to free institutions, and therefore
there is no dangerin in collecting and ed
ucating them in separate schools. Not
so the catholics Read their history.
That is sufficient. They are bigoted
They believe that they alone are right,
and every body else wrong. They call
all others heretics, and think that it is
doing Gods service to put them to
death. Hence great part of their
work has been the burning Of heretics.
Now Dr., would you not like to have
the Catholics rule this country, and,put
all the Methodists, Baptists, Presby-
terian &c to death' Then would pure
copperhead Democracy flourish. The
Pope OF Rome, the imbecile old fool,
during the Democratic rebellion, de-
clared the rebel States independent, at
which such Democrats as you threw up
your hats and rejoiced greatly, and
would now like to get to kiss the image
of bis great toe for thus showing his
sympathy for pro-slavery treason and
rebellion.

Card from Mr.. Radcliff.

Mr.. Vaughn remarked last Sunday
morning, where those men were killed
on the railroad, in tho presence OF
quite a number of men, that if we sold
as low as he did, we had lately come to
it.
Now Mr., Vaughn, challenge you
to compare charges, taking into the
account former high prices Of materials,
aud let the the people see the figures,
then they can judge who is the extor-
toner. Now don't dodge the question,
for by this means we can at least avoid
ignorant Misrepresentation.

New YORK CATHOLIC CoLLEGEs.-The
National Quarterly ReUieo, just issued,
contains most scurrilous attack on the
Jesuit Colleges of st. Francis Xavier and
Fordham, under cover of'an article on
columbia College," which, however, is
but q pretext to convey the malignity of
the writer. Several Northern periodicals
have rebuked the scurrility of this reptile,
whose falsehood that he was not permitted
to attend examinations is thus met by the
New York Herald
We cannot subscribe to all that is con-
tanned in the article on s'Columbia College,"
1t is to be deplored that the subject has
been made the cover for o most unmerited
adverse criticism upon the Jesuit Colleges
of st. Francis Xavier and Fordham-two
of our best educational institutions. If the
writer found il difficult to obtain admission
into either of these colleges, his has been
an exceptional case, for we know that Rs a
general rule, any person, be he Catholic or
Protestant, can, upon application, not only
obtain all the information he needs, but
also visit these places at all TIMES. 4
