BEN. BUTLER AT COLLEGE.-We
have very good story of the Hon.
Benjamin f. Butler that has not yet
found its way into the newspaper
When a student in college it was bind
ing on the students to attend the col
lege church-a duty which to him was
very irksome. On one occasion he
heard the preacher (who was also
professor) advancing propositions like
the following: a. That the elect alone
would be saved. q. That among those
who, by the world, were called Chris
tians probably not more than one in a
hundred belong really and truly to the
elect. (3.J That the others, by reasons
of their Christian privileges, wouldSuf-
fer more hereafter than the heathen, who
had never heard the Gospel at all. Mr..
Butler, whose audacitywss as conspic-
uous as his reverence, made note Of
these propositions, and on the strength
of them drew up petition to the fac
'ulty, soliciting exemption from fur
ther attendance at the church, as only
preparing for himself more terrible
future. For, said he, the congregation
here amounts to six hundred persons,
and nine of these are professors. Now,
if only one in a hundred is to be saved,
it followsssthat three even of the faculty
must be damned. He benjamin F.
Butler, being mere student, could
not expect to be saved in preference TO
a professor. For, he said, be it farfrom
him to cherish so presumptuous hope!
Nothing rem ainedf for him, therefore, but
perditions. In this melancholy posture
of affairs he was Neutrality-suspicious. to abb
stain from anvthiuor that unioht auorq-
vate his Accomplishment; and, as
church attendance had been shown in
last Sundays sermon to have this in
fluence on the non-elect, he trusted
that the faculty would for all time
coming exempt him from it! @
The result of this petition, written
out in an imposing manner, and form
ally presented to the faculty, was that
Butler received a publicreprimandfor ir-
reverence, and, but for the influence of
one or two friends in the faculty, would
have been expelled. DRAW.

Boys Read This.

The Louisville Commercial makes
the following brief but pointed remarks,
which are specially applicable to boys:
Now, children, listen to what we
have. An old Chinese proyerb says:
do not stop In a cucumber field to tie
the SHOE" The meaning is very plain.
Some one will be likely to fancy that
you are stealing fruit. Always remem-
Der the injunction. abstain from all
appearance of evil.p Do notstop under
the saloon porch to rest yourself, how
ever shady the tree may be, or howev-
er easy the chairs. Some one may
fancy you are common lounger there,
and so your good name be tarnished.
Don't go to liquor saloon to geta glass
of lemonade, however refreshing it
would seem to you. Rather buy your
lemons and prepare the cooling bever-
age at your home, where others may
share it with you, probably, too, at no
greater expense than your single glass
would cost you. Somebody seeing yoa
drinking at the bar win be sure to tell
the story, and will not be partieul II to
state that you were drinking only lem
onade. Then, too, if you are careless
about the appearance Of evil you will
soon grow equally careless about the
evil itself.

The letter of the Hon. John Blgelow which
We print this morning will call tho attention
of the country and of the Government to a
subject of vast and universal interest which
was in danger of being too long neglected.
We are already in startling proximity to the
greatest anniversary Of all our history. Five
years may appear ut first thought m ample
space for the preparation of any national jul
bilee, however important; but it needs only q
glance ut the subject to convince any one that
every moment of tho time will he required for
the accomplishment of a memorial work which
shall DO adequate to the occasion.
As to the proper way of celebrating this
great political cycle, the suggestions Of Mr..
Bigelow appear to us altogether admirable.
The world has pretty well outgrown the fash
ion of mere monuments rs q means OF COM
mcmorating great epochs in its history.
This mode has passed away with tho gradual
decay Of personal loyalty and the progress OF
people has como to be regarded as matter
of far profounder Importance than the glory
of q dynasty. 1t is especially with reference
to tho great problem Of national growth and
development that our existence Of d hundred
years is fact of supreme importance to the
world. The system founded by oar Revolution
has endured without material change through an
unbrokon succession OF Presidents and Con-
crosses, and has withstood every conceivable &C
cident of politics, rebellion. and war. As social
experiment, it presents the satisfactory result
of the most rapid increase Of population and
tho highest average of comfort and intelli-
genco that history records In country of
such extent. 1t is therefore our duty TO the
world, not less than to our own rcnown, To
investigate tho causes and the methods of this

We might have expected some such absurd
conclusion to the late encouraging legislation
of the Senate on the Income tax repeal as
that which has just overtaken it in the House.
In fact, we had presentiment that the in
genuity of the opponents Of the bill would
devise some unique method Of defeating it.
The point of order has been raised in the
House that the Senate had no constitutional
right to originate this measure to reduce rev.
enue the point has been sustained, and the
bill which the Senate lately passed has been
returned to it. In due season, doubtless, tho
House win pass bill and submit 1t to the
Senate. Then. of course, we may expect the
vexed Senate to have changed its mind. 1t is
thus Congress too frequently trifes with
public time and patience.

WHIT rs EOUAL PRO7ECTIOS'

The Supreme Court of California has juA
illustrated the difference which often exists b.
tween law and commons sense. The Old stats
statute excluding Chinese testimony was sup
posed to be rendered imperative by that clauss
OF the XIyth Amendment TO the Fcdeua
Constitution which provides that no Stsss
shall deny to any within its Jurisdiction tn
"e1ual protection of the laws.n 1t b notoriou
that the Amendment in question was INTENDED
TO place all men on an equal footing IN The
courts without regard to race, and to secun
for all the enjoyment of the same civil righh
It's primary purpose was 10 relieve the rfeed-
men of the disabilities imposed upon them b
State laws, and especially to enable them Il
sue and to be sworn as witnesses. The factthath
would apply to the Chinese "a well az the cd
ored people was shown at the time OF Its passing
Under it Chinese witnesses were admitted n
California courts, and criminal convictions
have been reached on their testimony Ih
Supreme Court of the State, with the concur
renee of four out of five judges, has now %
cided. however, that the XIVth Amendment
does not give Cinnamon the right to testify
against whites, and does not, 80 lar az "
can see, give them any protection at all. In
other words, the law, according to this deci-
sion, has done its duty when it prescribes
equal punishments and gives both races equal
facilities for beginning suit, without equal
facilities for prosecuting it white mn
may 20 into the Chinese quarter of San Fran
cisco, murder one or two of the Celestials, AID
rob half q dozen Chinese houses; and thoun
n score of Intelligent Cinnamon, respectabs
merchants perhaps, truthful and honorable, y
the better class Of them almost always as
may have witnessed the crimes, that mAa
cannot be convicted unless o white witnss
can be found to appear against him. On ~
| other hand, the real criminal may accuse ~
Cinnamon Of assaulting him, and they may b
punished on his testimony, though twenty Of
their cOuntrymen stand ready to swear to he
| true state of the case. And this, says the So
preme Court Of California, il not denying %
the MOngolians the equal protection Of III
"laws!o
We do not purpose TO question the technal
correctness of this dictum; but it will strh
plain people that laws protect two men equsy
not when they punish them both alike, ID
when they give both ,the Same facilities k
obtaining justice and enforcing their rigta
BY this new Interpretation the Chinaman hs
practically no protection at all against vhh
oppressor Ii the Southern courts take Ii
same view, the Freedmen will also be denld
their civil rights, and the XVIII Amendmeai
can be neutralized by any Rebel tribunal %
legislature that may feel so disposed. We es
that the California decision may be brought u
once 10 the test of the Supreme Court Of The
United States.

We are glad that we have here 80 ample

that the refugees, instead of burdening' Inn.

beneficence overfows upon the generation
amid which he tolls. Those already born
may live to SEQ ali the refined and ingenious
industries of France transferred to our soil,
as the present generation has witnessed the
transfer hither of the wider but equally useful
and salutary industries Of Germany. We shall
produce here the silks Of Lyons, the wines OF

Sevres and Dresden, tho Jewels, the bronzes,
and the rich and various ornaments OF Paris.
But above all, we hope that we shall give

not cursed with the domination of either Bo-
