CoLoRED PASSENGERS ON NORTHERN
CENTRAL RAILROAD TRAINS. : We
have frequent complaints from
gentlemen residing on the line Of
the Northern Central railroad that
their colored servants coming to
and from the city are compelled to
take seats in the smoking cars. We
suggested that they probably took
them from habit or timidity, but
were assured that such was not the
case, but that they were ordered
upon approaching the train by the
conductors to the smoking car. The
smoking car is 2 very pleasant place
for those who smoke, but not one
in which any one should be COM
PEELED to sit who does not smoke.
The law, however, is now clearly
defined and understood everywhere,
allows of no distinction being made.
and if any is attempted we assure
those aggrieved that it is only ne
cessary to insist upon their rights
to abtain them. -

Cannon Ball Tree.

Among the plants of Guinea one
Of the most curious is the cannon ball
tree. 1t grows tothe height of sixty
feet, and its flowers are remarkable
for beauty and fragrance, and
contradictory qualities. Its bios
SONS are of a delicate crimson,
appearing in large punches, and
exhaling a rich perfume, The fruit
resembles enormous cannon balls,
hence the name. However, some
say it has been so called because of
the noise which the ball makes in
bursting. From the shell domestic
utensils are made, and the contents
contain several kinds of acids,
besides sugar and gum, and furnish
the material for making an excellent
drink in sickness. But, singular as
it may appear, this pulp. when in a
perfectly ripe state, is very filthy,
and the odor from it is exceedingly
unpleasant. .,fo .t

The bridge now in process of
erection across the Mississippi, at
st. Louis, is one of the wonders of
the age, 1t is to be a tubular, cast
steel. arch bridge, supported by the
abutment and two piers; the latter
are five hundred and fifteen feet
apart, and four hundred and ninety
seven feet each from its nearest
abutment, making those spans Of
about five hundred feet each. It's
greatest span is the same as that of
the Kuilenburg bridge over the
Leck, an arm of the Rhine. Tel
ford's suspension bridge across the
Mensr Straits has q span of five
hundred and seventy feet. The suas- suas
pension bridge at Niagara spans
eight hundred and seventy-one feet,
and Is two hundred rnd forty-6ve
feet above the water. The East
River bridge will span one thousand
and six hundred feet. s Z.

A little girl was looking at the
picture of a number of ships, when
she exclaimed, "See, what flock of
ships" We corrected her by say
ing that a flock of ships is called a
flock.
And here we may add, for the
benefit of the foreigner who is mas
tering the intricacies Of our language
in respect to nouns of multitude,
that a flock of girls is called a bevy,
that q bevy of wolves is called a
pack, and a pack of thieves'is called
a gang, and gang of angels is
called host, and host of pOrpoise
is called a shoal, and a shoal of

THE MISSISSIPPI FILLING Up.

The bed Of the Mississippi river
seems to be filing up at a rate which
threatens in the course Of time, to
seriously affect navigation during
the dry season. This year at St.
Louis, while the surface of the wa
ter has been four feet and one inch
below the lowest stage Of water at
tanned by the river in 1863, there
was at the same time only about
five inches higher than in 1868. So in
1856 the bed Of the river, was fonud
to be two feet and three inches high
er than it was ten years previous
1t is thought that tough clay parti-
cles are brought down by tributary
streams from the cultivated fields
of the northwest and deposited in
the channel, and that there, form
ing with the sand a concrete mass,
adhere to the bottom instead of be-
ing secured out by the annual fresh
ct as is the case with unmixed sand.
1t is reasonable to suppose, too,
that the volume of water flowing
into the river will gradually decrease
as the country is opened to cultiya-
ton, as such has been the case with
our rivers flowing through cultiva-
ted districts. The Danube, though
large river, is unfit for purposes
of commercial intercourse. If we
look nearer home, we find that the
destruction of the forest and the
cultivation Of the adjacent country,
are having the effect Of drying up
the Connecticut; very gradually, to
be sure, but still none the less effec-
tually. Many of it's tributaries,
which formerly contributed large
volumes of water, the twelve months
through, are now dry for three
fourths of the year.-Erehange.

RH~ Some of the most curious reve-
lations made by the census relate to
the Chinese in the United States.
Their numbers in the three last CEN
suses appear as fellows: In 1850, $50;
in 1860, 35 ,565; in 1870, 63,254. 1t
will be seen that while the Chinese
population multiplied itself forty-seven
times within the second, that is, from
1860 to 1870. The absolute increase
was also less in the second than in the
first period, the figures being reepec-
lively 27,6S9 and 34,S07. For pur-
poses of comparison, the population
of the United States may be made to
appear under the following classifica-
ton:

and refinement to enjoy, as thrust
ing themselves upon white people.
How foolish? Railroads, steam
boats, and hotels are for public &C
commodation, providing the public
comply with their reasonable regula-
tions, and a decent respectable
white person who pays his way in
car, steamboat, or hotel, does not
thrust" himself upon a colored
person who likewise pays his way,
nor cace Uersa. Why the gentleman
OF color above alluded to did not or
should not go to the same hotel
with these white people" the
Chronicle does not tell us. We're
"these white people" of a higher or
lower class than usually frequented
that hotel; and if of a higher class,
what length of time will it take to
eradicate the evil influence of the
contaminating association with a
lower class of people? 1t must be
that the color of the skin makes all
white people equal, and that the
lowest and the highest, the pure
and the base, may associate together
in hotels, ETC., without shock or
offense to either. Does the Chron-
icle mean this? If it does not, will
it inform us what reason can there
be why that colored man, upright,
pure-minded, reputable, honored,
and honorable, should not go to
"the same hotel with these white
people" if they were like him, up
right, pure-minded, honored, etc.
We hope for the immediate pas
sage of Senator Summers bill, as it
will not only be an act of justice to
the colored people, but it will pre-
vent the constant exhibition of the
downright Stiffness of white people
in their exhibition of caste prejudice
based on color.

Civil Rights for the COlOred
People. ..

We observe that Mr.. Sumner is
pressing his supplementary civil
rights bill, the object of which is to
give to colored people the same
privileges in all public conveyances
and. in all hotels and public places
that are now enjoyed by white
people. ~ .s f.,- e.. q
This is right. Let the law be as
clear on this subject as the Consti-
tuition is. But a law to this effect
will make no appreciable difference
in the Southern States. The better
class of colored people in those
States are not disposed to thrust
themselves on white people, and
the better class of white people in
those States are not disposed to
deny to colored people the same
general public rights which they
enjoy themselves. We know of
one case in point. A reputable
colored man, State officer and
minister of the Gospel, was travel
ing in public coach in Southern
State with some white men and
white lady. Reaching a village
where they were to take the steam
cars, there was no dinner provided.
The colored gentleman, known to
be a thorough Republican, said he
was hungry, having travelled all
day without breaking his fast. The
lady took a basket of edibles from
under the seat of the coach, helped
the colored man bountifully, and
then handed it to the white gentle
man. Africa and America dined
together in that stage coach from
the name basket. The colored man
did not feel honored, and the white
folks travelling with him did not
feel humiliated. Yet that colored
man, upright, pure-minded, repu-
table, honored, and honorable as
he is, did not, when they reached
their journeys end. go to the same
hotel with these white people.
Chronicle.
The DAILY Chronicle, in this article
on Senator Summers supplementary
civil rights bill appears a little
nervous, little afraid of the equal
ity proposed by that bill, and ad-
vises something, in its opinion, even
better and of more Importance to
the colored people of the country.
We say to the Chronicle that the
colored people want all proposed in
Senator Summers bill and more.
and that they will continue to
agitate until there is no distinction
made in this country based on caste.
The Chronicle looks upon the
desire Of colored gentlemen and
ladies to have access to the best ac-
commodations on railroads, steam
boats, and in hotels that they are
able to pay for, and the intelligence
