This work Il universally regarded a. one of the
most biographies written
1t in all respects worthy Of it, great subject and IN
design and execution complete and satisfactory ~
any treatise in modern literature. No book has ever
been published in this country better adapted to aid
the Minister and the Teacher and larger Scholars Of
the Sunday School, and every family to understand
the meaning of T. large part Of the New Testament
Scriptures. It has already received the unqualified
commentator Of the eminent men and leading relig-
ious Journals Of all denominations.
Prof Saml. G: Bartlett of Chicago Theological Semi
nary says: Iregard it admirable aud invaluable
reproduction of the scenes and circumstances of the
Apostles labors full of interest and profit alike to
the minister, the Sabbath School Teacher, and the
intelligent Christian. The wide diffusion Of the
work will be benefaction to the Church.

Little Blind Willie Coffman.

Our readers will be grieved to learn of the
death of little BLIND WILLIE COLEMAN, the
Infant Pianist, one of the most remarkable
musical prodigies in the world. He died in
Richmond on Saturday, the 18th inst But
little more than three years of age was this lit
tie Virginia genius, says the Lader, when his
musical heart ceased to beat, and his sinless
little soul passed beyond the stars, "still quiz
ring to the young eyed Cherubim,' to where
''he heard the chant of Seraphs round him
breaking"
Unerring was the flight of this chld's soli-
tary soul to the throne of God, for it was upon
the wings Of innocency that it was borne
through the vast deserts and solitudes of space
And, whereas he was blind, now he sees. -
His eyes had never seen the beauties of the
earth. With what rapture of delight must
the chid's soul have been filled, when, amid
music and angelic song, he first beheld the glo-
ries of Heaven

Verdict for $1,000.

The case of Bob. Stephens, negro, VS.. the
Fredericksburg Railroad Company, came up in
Underwood's Court Wednesday last. The suit
was brought to obtain $500 damages, because
Bob's wife was put into the negro car, instead
of being put witt the ladies.
Underwood, in his charge to the jury, brand
ed Richmond as notorious for the drunkenness
of its citizens, including even the clergy, and
most novel proceeding in a court of justice
read from the Bible the first nine verses of the
second chapter of the Epistle of St. James. =
He charged the jury that they must find for
the plaintiff, and the pack of black and tans,
obedient to the crack of their masters whip,
brought in a verdict accordingly, fixing the
damages at 81 ,6OO.-Rich. Nencs.

Gen. Grants Speech.

The joint Committee appointed to inform
Gen. Grant officially of his election to the Pres
idency was composed of Senator Morton and
Representatives Jas. F. Wilson and j. V. L.
Pruyn-the latter being Democrat.
On receiving the certificate of his election, In
response to the remarks of Senator Morton, Gen.
Grant delivered the following speech:
II can promise the committeeman it will be
my endeavor to call around me as assistants
such men only as [ think will carry out the
principles which you have said the country de-
sires to be successful-economy, retrenchment,
faithful collection of the revenue, and payment
of the public debt. If [ should fail in my first
choice [ shall not at any time hesitate to make
a second, or even third trial. with the concur
renee of the Senate, who have the confirming
power. I should just as soon remove one OF my
own appointees as the appointee Of my prede-
cessor 1t would make no difference.
There is one matter that might properly
speak of here, and that is the election of "a Cab
met. [ have always felt that it would be rath-
er indicate to announce or even to consult
with the gentlemen whom [ thought ofinvi
ting to positions in my Cabinet before the OH
cial declaration of the result of the election was
made, although presumed that there was no
doubt about what that declaration would be-
But after consideration have come to the con-
clusion that there is not man in the country
who could be invited to place in the Cabinet
without the friends of some other gentleman
making an effort to secure the position: not
that there would be any objection to the party
named, but that there would be others whom
they had set their hearts upon having in the
place. can say that much from the great
number of requests which come to me, in writ
ing and otherwise, for this particular person
or that one, from different sets and delegations
If announced in advance, efforts would be made
to change my determinations, and therefore
have come to the conclusion not to announce
whom l am going to invite to seats In the Cab

about it, it will certainly not be more than two

From the Enquirer and Examiner
Hon. John B. Baldwin.

In the Dispatch, of yesterday, this gentle
man publishes communication denying that
he assented to the proposition of Mr.. Day, of
New York last September, that the people of
Virginia should declare for negro suffrage etc.
In the Enquirer and Examiner, of Wednesday,
we intimated that according to our informa-
ton, two members" of the Committee of
Nine did assent to Mr.. Days overtures and
Mr.. Baldwin assumes that he is one of the two
referred to, and his communication is in re-
spouse to our remarks We did mean Mr..
Baldwin, and we predicated our reference to
him upon our distinct recollection of CONVEX
sation in which Mr.. Day was principal speaker,
and at which the present writer and several
other gentlemen were present We certainly
did understood Mr.. Day to state that Mr..
Baldwin was one of the gentlemen who had en-
couraged his overtures. But upon comparing
our recollection with that of some of the other
gentlemen who were present, we are led to be-
Iieve that we may have been mistaken, and &C
cordingly now announce Mr.. Baldwin positive
denial of the imputation as settling the matter,
so far as he is concerned. Irrespective of our
fallibility as to remembering exactly what Mr..
Day aid, we have no hesitation in saying that
MI Baldwin's denial of the sentiments impu-
ted to him would be amply sufficient to con-
vince us that he did not express them.

Stephens is very fragile when enjoying his best

Deadlock on the Suffrage Amendment.

A special telegram to the Richmond Dispatch
says that the House Judiciary Committee have
agreed to adhere to the House joint resolution
to amend the Constitution on suffrage as heret.-
fore reported by Mr.. Boutwell,; and the House
will insist on its resolution The Senate is
equally determined on its own proposition, and
there is a deadlock between the two Houses on
the suffrage amendment, the difference being
that the House gives the negro the right to vote
upon the same footing as white citizens, leaving
to States the right of fixing qualifications of
voters, whilst the Senate insists on giving the
negro the right to hold Office, and forbids pro-
perty and religious qualifications. The Senate
proposition cannot receive the requisite two
thirds vote in the House. The House PROPOSE
ton cannot receive the two thirds vote in the
Senate. Neither House is inclined to give way
or compromise, and so the suffrage amendment
is regarded as a failure at this session.
