THE COMING CELEBRATION OF THE ODD

CREATED DIFTERENcEs. Mr.. Sumner was
very earnest the other day against the out
rage of discrimination on account of color,
and said we might as we'll rule men from
the polls for the color of the eyes. Here
is the trouble with these men. They can
not see that with color of the skin are
associated other more insuperable differ
encc. Of which that is only the sign Mr..
Snmner asked indignantly whether any
inherent quality planted in the human form
by God can be made by any vote of man q
qualification for citizenship under our Con-
sstitution." Certainly it can. Comparative
Intelligence is as much dependent upon in
hcrent quality of brain as comparative color
is dependent upon inherent quality of skin
yet this is made qualification evcn in
Massachusetts. .-Ne,o York Herald

A ROMANCE OF. THE CUBAN REBELLION
An American citizen who was in the Theatre
of Villanueva, on the evening of the 22d
ult, and witnessed the riot and massacre in
the streets of Havana that evening, says
that the origin of the outburst was the
shooting of young woman. He says: ga
very beautiful girl, the daughte. of Aldama,
one Of the wealthiest and most noble of all
Cubans, wore upon her left breast the Ame-
rican flag, with the inscription, Long live
the Republic of Cuba, upon it, When
that stirring song was being sung, the whole
audience rose and cheered this young wo-
man, and as she rose to acknowledge the
salute-all eyes were now bent upon her-a
low, mean, cowardly Spaniard shot her with
a revolver, killing her instantly. Two Ame-
rican gentlemen occupied the box adjoining
Senorita Aldamn, whose names L do not
know, but one of whom, seeing the pistol
pointed at the young lady's breast, drew his
revolver, and second after the Spaniard
had fired, blew the top Off the head of the
cowardly assassin. Instantly, the whole
theatre was the scene of the greatest con
fusion, and the Spanish troops rushed in
and began firing upon the masses of the
huddled, unarmed, innocent men and wo-
men"

A lady who has received foreign educa-
ton went into photograph gallery lately,
to have her picture taken, and was astoundel
by the request of the artist that she should
sit on her foot. She Indignantly assured
him that she should do no such thing.
"Why," he said sit was the common habit
of American women, and it gave an easv
attitude to the picture" TO assure her that
such was the fact, he pointed out twelve or
twenty photographs of ladies' who were
taken with one foot doubled under them,
having assumed the position unconsciously,
through habit.
Not only woman's rights, but the practice
OF advocates of woman's rights, are getting

wauke Universalist Society, at n salary Of
81, 900 year, has as promptly resigned the
pastorate of Universalist Society ut Mount
Pleasant, Iowa, where she has been settled
for some time, and rs quickly accepted the
call as any masculine minister could do
and we don't blame her.

Thursday Morning, February IL. 1869.

Apaper which does not like the existing
state of things at Washington, remarks that
''brutal vulgarity and vulpine trickery stand
arm in arm upon the apex of the pyramid
of disgrace and ruin which replaces the
noble structure of the Federal Congress as
it existed in its former glories." The New
York Times thinks they must have rather
narrow footing to stand upon; it is to be
hoped they may soon tumble of. On
the apex Of such pyramid they must be
less ornamental than the prodigious female
who caps the climax of the "noble struc-
ture" of the existing Capitol.

CARPEr-BAaaERs SHREwD AT SOMETHING.
Don Piatt says that the carpet baggers in
Congress have shown more ability in their
fight to get pay for the early part of the
session, before they or their States had any
political existence, than would be necessary
to make a respectable member. The rules
of the House prohibited a member from
voting his own pay, or in any case whore he
is directly interested. Now the carpet
knights had twenty-six votes. To introduce
resolution granting the pay to all, shut
out the whole vote. But by introducing
resolution for one State, all the others were
enabled to vote. The lot from one State
voted in, they were then free to vote for the
others; and so State after State was taken
up. Every candidate for Speaker, Clerk,
Door-keeper or other Office was duly notified
of the consequences of negotive response
And so my friend of the paper collar and
spare dickey triumphed- pay was Sc
cured-the immense sum of S5,OOO for
supposed work never done, was secured
