Washington City, in message to
tie city council, recommends that
white and colOred children be edu-
Gated under the same public school

in other respects all distinction to
race or color has been abolished.
He also nominated Prof. VashOn

ALT. BURNETT ON THE SITUA-
TIoN.-Alf Burnett, the celebrated
Northern Humorist, who has been
travelling for some time in the South,
writes to the Cincinnati Commercial
under date of Macon, Georgia, June
23d, as follows. Every one must
acknowledge the fidelity with which
the picture is drawn:
The negroes here are not inclined
to work if they Can help it. There
are from five to six hundred haskins
in the sunshine. A railroad con.
tractor was in the city yesterday to
engage laborers, Offering them good
cabins and finding them with all the
food requisite. and 81 per day, cash.
He could only obtain eight hands in
the lot willil e to work. They sleep
around in sheds and low dOggeries,
producing disease and death TO all
extent dangerous to the community
The people talk of enactinga vagrai
cy law, but if they did. the military
wouldn't let them enforce it. | be,

lowed (if the people of the North
ever want their future friendship OF

to he forced to lie governed by the
blacks. Allowances must be made
and if Northern men would visit the
South, and be with them few
months, they could not fail to sym
pathize with them in their troubles
Those hasty, flying visits Of commit
tees, who only stop long enough tC
take a drink and eat a dinner, and
talk with Northern men resident here
are not the ones to be relied upon
for fair statement. 1t wants a con
verse with numerous people, Il study
of their character, an insight into
their sincerity, to appreciate the sit
uatlOn of the Southern people.

ADVICE FROM GRERtEY.-The New York
Tribune, in late article containing advice
to its republican friends to govern their con-
duct at the elections, says: "If tho only
chance lies between a corrupt republican and
an upright democrat, vote for the democrat;
and if they are both corrupt, vote against
them BOTH" Things are Frightening when a
leading republican paper thus encourages
boiling from its own ranks. The republican
vote would doubHess. be small, if its people
should act upon the TriLune's suggestion. >

people until the crop of 1870 is harvested
and knowing how limited the stock in this

on the line of Main street vacant Buildings
that have been te=antless for months are now
occupied, and the competition to obtain de>
slrable business stands is greater than at any
previous period in the history of Walla Walla'
Heretofore business has been in great mea-
sure confined to that portion of Main street,
between First aud Third streets, but latterly
these bo, diaries have been overleaped, and
now every bur, ding on the line of Main street
at all suitable is Occupied for business pur-
poses. At time when there is general
complaint all over the coaat of " dull times
this business activity in our midst Is the very
best evidence of the solid basis on which the
prosperity of Walla Walla rests.

PRESIDENT JOHNSON AFTER HIS
.....f TERM.

As the public viii be curious to know
what is to become of President johnson
after the expiration of his presidential
term, VIC extract as follows from tho
Nashville correspondent of the Louisville
Couricr-J ournal:
NASHVILLE, Jan. %, lS69.-Iw illgis {
you briefly, but accurately, pen picture
of the situation in Tennessee at tho pres
cnt moment.
Andrew johnson is expected to arrive
here by the middle of March. He has
written to his friends to say that he will
be candidate for Governor. No one
will oppose his nomination. 1t will be
made spontaneously by the Conscrva-
lives; aud his platform will consist of
universal amnesty and impartial suffrage,
on which the people of Tennessee have
riskcd their claims from the first.
He is expected to do two things
LIST. He will talk to the negroes as no
one else has ever talked to them.
ID. He will awaken the East Tennes-
see "loyalists" to a sense of the pcrils Of
the present State Government as no one
else can awaken them.
Johnson il not wit like Ethcridgc.
Nor is no az orator like Colyar. But he
is prodigy of muscular power before the
Tennessee masses, who consider him a
child of destiny, marked by Providence
to be their next Governor.
Johnson's purpose is to secure Con-
sentative Legislature, which win return
him to the Senate of the United States in
place of Mr.. Fowler. But for their faith
in him the people of the Stately whom
| mean the disiranchised masses would
mike no contest this summer. They
consider the existing system n machine,
and they regard its operation as little
less than certain. johnson docs not
lie says be has fought worse fight, and
says he can break up the Loyal Leagues
as he broke up the Know Nothing lodges.
He will dcnounce the ku-klux in UNI
measured terms. lie will take strong
National grounds on all National ques-
tons, and he expects to carry all before
him.
