ruling prejudice may be as strong in death as a
ruling passion The hard, earnest way in which
some folk hate ringers" affords really curious
subject for study. The other day. Mr.. j. s. White
died, leaving $4,000 to the University of Vermont
at Burlington. This would seem to show Mr.. White
to have been benevolent man, for he bequeathed
this money to aid INDECENT students; and yet this
legacy was given upon the express condition that
no cOored student should ever receive dollar of II
-colored students, as matters now are, being pre-
cisely the class most likely to be INDECENT and to
need pecuniary assistance. 1t melancholy to think
of, but there is every reason to suppose that Mr.
White has gone to place where White folks have
no special privileges.

II ia announced that the Atlantic Cable OF
1865 has finally been grappled and repaired ;
all three of the submarine telegraph lines con-
sequently, are now in working order The
two English cables ceased to work last Novem-
Der, but that laid in 1866 was picked up on
the Sd of June. Previous to the breaks
of November the tariff was seyenty-iive
cents each word, and Press rates were
thirty-seven and half cents until the Western
Union Telegraph Company refused to reduce
their tolls on such messages to half-rates.
When the break occurred in November, the
Cable Managers doubled their tariff When
the 1865 cable was repaired, June 3, the tariff
was reduced to one dollar each word where it
now remains.

Galena is agitated upon the subject of hogs. These
nusances have heretofore run wild III the streets,
ravaged gardens demolished fences attacked dwell
ing houses, and 1t is said even women and children.
There is now there hog party and also an ant-hos
party and the affair will come in time to the
polls if it does not provoke great civil connections
aud combats in the streets, with revolutions and
counter-reyoutions and reactions in the Govern
ment. We do not see how any sensible citizen can
have any doubt on the subject; but We remember,
lorg after New-York was u much larger city than
Galena now is, how the hog meandered unrcstain,d

In the debate upon Fisk, jr, and his desire to pray
in public, which occurred in the Boston Board Of
Aldermen, Mr.. Cowdin said: There are churches in
this city which would refuse poor persons admission
and not allow them TO enter" A Boston clergyman
fires up (mildly) at this and says empbatcally that
il is not true. In his church. he states, humid
reds of the best sittings absolutely Free" and.
"this is true of other churches" We have no reason
to believe that any DESTROYS of attending divine
service in Boston will be prevented from so doing by
lack of seat in church. Most persons who have
visited that city will agree with us, that the main
difficulty there on Sunday is in not going to church,
should one desire to stay at home. Alderman Cow
din does MT do his beloved and beautiful Boston JUS
tice.

The French Monarcbist newsnoners.

The French Monarchist newspapers, it is
said, fear the union of the Republican jour
nails. This is only another illustration of the
force of the old axiom that in union there is
strength. There are eighteen Partisan journals
openly OF covertly in the interest of monarch
ism, and only five are Republican. Latterly,
these five have resolved to write in sup
port of or opposition to such candidates
as may be presented for the Assembly. The
Monarchists are divided among themselves, of
course, and the unbroken front of even five
Republican newspapers is likely to harass
them considerably. Let us hope that dissen-
sions in the French Republican ranks may
cease from this time forth, aud that the ex-
ample of the journals may be followed by the
political leaders to the salvation aud establish
ment of the Republic.

DR.. Burroughs, at a meeting of the Massachusetts,
Medical Society, said that biologists had yet
made discovery at variance with the truth that
in the beginning God created the heavens and the
earth. Precisely SO but great many biologists
have been denounced as infdes for expressing dis
belief in the literal account of the creation in
Genesis. Clergymen are finding out that no harm
will be done TO true religion by acquescing not in
the assertions but in the demonstrations of science

If a great and murderOus accident did
not occur on the New-YOrk Central Rail-
road yesterday, it was not because the reck-
lessness of an engineer was not there to
precipitate it. A freight train running
around sharp curve at Fairport Station, III
disregard OF all rules, was kept on at the usual
rate of speed and ran into passenger train
there standing. Of course, it is easy to blame
the engineer, since no one was-strange to say
killed on the spot; but the scaDegOat might
not have been so convenient if hundred
people had been killed.

There was painful scene the other day in the

Of the National Congress within tho lin is of the

A new phase has been given to the vexed
question of the New-YOrk Central Railroad
Tax. The Company, having Intellectually ap-
pealed from the Commissioner of Internal
Revenue to the Secretary of the Treasury,
now claim that so much of the scrip as repre-
sented earnings of the road previous to the
passage of the law authorizing the collection of
the tax should be exempt from taxation. This
point is thoughtby the Secretary to be well taken,
and the collection of the tax will, therefore,
have to be postponed until the taxable is sep
arated from the nOn-taxable amount Nobody
can blame the Company Tor securing all legal
exemption possible. but We must dCIrecate tbs

The little earthquake which sent shiver through
Staten Island and of the other suburbs OF tins
city on Sunday night seems to have been only a
trihing affair Of two or three seconds, but since 1t
has provoked the remarkable scientific essay in yes
terdays NeC- York BldkaSkie feel that 1t did not
live in vain. The writer states his thesis with the
precision of true scholar "Was this earthquake
the result of some mysterious attraction between
the electrical forces of the atmosphere and
those in the bowels of the earth or was it the
bouncing up against tho earth's crust in the Oca-
ties mentioned of some tidal of the liquid fire
with which the shell Of the earth is filledP After
"thoughtful consideration" he arrives at the con-
cusion that the earths crust is exactly forty miles
thick on the average; but at San Francisco it is only
ten mikes while in this region 1t IS as much
as O. hundred. Therefore volcanoes are not
planted" hereabout. because we do not need
Them" and if we have earthquakes, it is
because they are good for us. Whence it fol-
lows that the climate Of San Francisco is favorable
for early vegetables the consequences of which are
that New-York can safely build tall houses, and that
thousands and thousands of years before the time
of Adam the whole globe was like lump of dough-"
The practical deduction from this syllogism is OBJ
yious; the earthquake is due both to electrical
attraction between the atmosphere and the forces
within the earth, and to the bouncing up" OF the
same great tidal-wave which has recently produced
q tremendous uph6aval in China; in other words,
the phenomenon is TO be explained both by the
sympathetic theory and the back action bounce.
There now, you have the whole thing!

The Associated Press dispatch informs us
that the effort to nominate Senator Ben Wade
for the Ohio GovernOrship has been abandoned
by the Cincinnati politicians who had it in
charge. At this distance it appears to have
been very much more in charge of unwise Wash
ington politicians,-but it was never OF any con-
sequence, either to the sturdy veteran himself
or to anybody else. Gen. NOyes. who is be-
lieved to be sure Of the nomination, Will walk
over the track all the better because he has
but one leg with which to do it, having left
the other, during shermans Atlantic campaign,
at Nicojack Creek. He is a sterling Repub-
lcan, and will make an excellent Governor.

1t may surprise many people to be told that
in Georgia, one of the most enlightened of
the Southern States, there are not less than
10000 native adult Whites who cannot read or
write. Not only is the native White popula-
ton grossly ignorant, but a strong prejudice
exists against common schools. When we con-
slider that the great bulk of the colored pOpu-
lation has been purpOsely kept in mental
darkness, we can understand something of the
depressed state in which education now exists in
the South. 1t is encouraging, however, to
know that better time is coming, and that
Whites and Blacks alike are sharing in the
benefit Of more liberal system Of primary

The demoralizing influence of the Policy
Dealers has not been checked by their arrests
last month, and, after their ingenious escape
through the broad meshes of the law, they
opened their shops all over the city. Another
raid was, however, made yesterday upon them,

THE CONNOLLY TRAGEDY.

Shall the bloody domestic tragedy which Oc-
CURED in this city last Sunday be swallowed
up in the swift current of daily events, and
leave no impression other than the ripping
horror of passing momentf A gentleman
of some refinement and education shuts him
self into his chamber with his two little chill
dren hours pass without any indication being
what is happening within and when the mys-
teriOus silence of the room is disturbed by
breaking in the door, the CHASTITY sight re-
vealed appalls stout-hearted men used
to scenes of blood and death. The father
has deliberately taken his chidren's
lives and his own, and the family lay
weltering in death. What phantasm fitted
before the diseased mind of the father, what
specter of coming want urged him on to the
commttal of the deed in moment of delirium
we may not know. The wrctched man took
with him into the world beyond all explana-
ton of his rash undoing and his murderous
deed, save this he was of an incorporate
habit and had sometimes been made insane
by drink.
The lesson is too Obvious to need that the
fearful tragedy should be greatly pressed to
point moral. More eloquent than any mere
form of words or mimicry of art, the somber
picture of the suicide and dOHble murder is an
impressive temperance lesson. Charity to the
unnatural father who lifted the knife against
the lives OF bis only children PROMPTS US to
