rgb;ch had not entirely subsidized when
negro office-holding became a fixed
thing; and we are now in a state
OF relapse into which it threw US.
We shall recover, however. The Lieu
tenant Governor of the State of Lou
isiana, in the person Of a negro, named
Dunn, has for weeks been received on
the floor of both branches of Con
gress, where he has been treated as
though his skin was white. A gem
tleman of wealth, culture and elegant
manners. color is the only peg to hang
an objection on; and that is so short
and feeble that it is Of little account.
Should a negro make his appearance
with credentials emitting him to
seat in Congress, it is probable We
should survive In fact, there Is
nothing more likely, and we shall yei
live to wonder that we ever made sucl
fuss about the niger. "-Ptttsbarl

We hope the Boys will possess
their souls in patience. We feel safe
in promising that no extensive street
improvements will be attempted this
year unless it be at the request of five
eighths of the property owners on the
street to be improved. In that case
only a majority vote Of the Council IS
necessary. There Is a little error,
however, in the above paragraph, to
which attention may be called. II
saws THAT the Radical majority count
ed Mr.. SEMoNIN as a member OF the
Council after having accepted the
resignation of Mr.. VAN RIPPER" The
truth is, Mr.. SEMoNIN was declared
entitled 10 his seat as Councilman foI
the Third Ward before Mr.. VAN
RIPPER resigned. He only resigned
his pretensions after he had been
ousted by formal vote of the Board
His resignation was very much like
that of MIR. AFRO DYER as County

signed during the past week.

THE FLOUR IEsPEoTORSHP-MR. G. n. AVE
RILL ARRESTED AGAIN-HE Is CARRIED BEFORE
JUDGE CARPENTER ON wRrT OF HABEAs CORPUS
THE JUDGE ADVISES ALL PARTIES INTERESTED NOT
TO INTERFERE WITH Mr.. AvERILL.-Yesterday
morning Mr.. c. N. Ayerill, Flour Inspector, was
again arrested, by two policemen, upon the
charge OF violating the ordinance "to prevent or
punish any person who may exercise, or attempt
to exercise the duties Of any municipal office, un-
less he shall have been duly elected to the same"
He was carried before Captain Hendricks. City
Attorney, &C., D. T. Corbin was on hand, and
offered to take the same bond which was required
at the previous arrest which Mr.. Averill declined
to give Mr.. Averill then applied through his
counsel, Messrs. wilkinson Miles, to Judge Car
penter for writ Of hGoeaS corpus, which was
granted by the Judge and made returnable imme-
diately; but at the request Of the City Attorney
for time to prepare return, O'Clock was an
nounced as the hour to hear the case at Judge
Carpenters house.
At the hour appointed, his Honor the Judge, c.
N. Averil C. R. Miles, Wilkinson & Gilchrist, D.
T. Corbin, Mayor Pillsbury, Captain Hendricks,
Magistrate Mackey and Alderman Barrow, were
present, and the hearing of the case was COM
menCeQ. Inc COuuSel lOT MI. <tNSiui di6uSu tHo1
the Mayor had no right to arrest, or order the ar
rest of their client. The City Attorney read the
return to the writs, and argued that the arrest
was legal, claiming that Mr.. Averill had violated
the city ordinance.
At the conclusion Of the arguments, Judge Car
penter decided that the arrest OF Mr.. Averlll was
Illegal After this decision was announced by his
Honor Magistrate Mackey asked if Mr.. Averin
could not be arrested again on the same charge
on warrant issued by a magistrate, to which
the Judge replied that the question was ROW in
the hands Of a higher tribunal, and he would not
give an official opinion, but he would advise that
Mr.. Aver be let alone.
Late In the afternoon Mr.. Averlll was rearrested
upon warrant issued by Magistrate Mackey
at the instance OF NJ. Caulfeld. The warrant
charged him with having violated the law ratified
in August, 1869, imposing penalty OF fine or
imprisonment upon all persons holding ONCE by
military authority, or under the provisional gov
ernment, who exercised its duties after their suo-
cessors had been appointed or elected.
Messrs Miles & Wilkinson appeared for Mr..
Averlll and clearly proved that he had not in any
way violated the law, whereupon he was dis
charged by the magistrate.
We are gratifed to state that the Flour Inspec-
torship troubles may now be considered at end,
for the present at least, and we hope that Mr..
Ayerill will not be interfered with In the dis
charge of the duties OF the ONCE OF Flour In
spectOf.
