Brinr i'm a Bill BY all Means.

On board the steamboat from Acquia
Creek to Washington, Fred. Douglass,
who accompanied the San Domingo
Commissioners as an ornamental appen-
dage, attempted totake seat at din.
ner table appropriated to white passen-
gers. The officers Of the boat informed
Douglass of the rules OF the boat and
escorted him to the table set apart for
"culIud pussens.' This was more than
Ben. Wade and his fellow Commission
ers could stand. They forthwith vaca-
tel the premises, gave up their dinners
and for once il their lives kept a Lenten
fast, like good Christians. No doubt a
bill will be at once introduced in. Con-
gress to pay Fred. Douglass for the din
ner of which he was deprived and the
insult offered him. And we feel certain
that the army and navy Of the United
States ought to be called out to suppress
such "outrages."

THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.

We heartily second the remarks
made by the IntelGgeneer OF yesterday
morning in relation to the Fire De
partment of the city. II seems to US
that there has been a mistaken econo-
nv on the part Of the city councils in
relation to this important matter-an
economy that is near akin to extrava-
gance. AS at present organized, our
Fire Department has really done all
and more than all that could have been
reasonably expected of it. 1t is sur
prising that under all the circum-
stances, it has succeeded as well as 1t
has. Notwithstanding the numerous
fires that have occurred in the city during
the past few months, no one Of them has
caused the destruction OF other prop
erty than that in which the fire orig
mated, a result that is due entirely to
the labors OF the Fire Department.
That they have not been SO successful
as might be desired in saving property
already ignited, is owing mainly to the
faults OF the organization which the
new ordinance is designed to remedy.
At present. no provision is made for
the constant watchnlness and attend
ance of anybody but the ..hostlers the
yery ones whose duties in emergency
are the plainest, require least SKILL ana
could most easily be performed by vol
unteers; while those whose presence IS
most i'm perative and whose places can
not be filled BY any citizens who may
chance to assemble, are scattered all
over the city, remote from the engine
houses and difficult to alarm.
The disposition to economizethe pub
lie expenditures is very pralseworthy
one, indeed, but an injudicious economy
is costly. The property that migh' Oe
saved by so organizing our Fire De
partment as to secure greater celebrity and
promptitude. is likely to be OF far great
er amount than the sums saved to the
city treasury by keeping the expense OF
the Department at figure that impairs
its efficiency. The excellence and value
of Fire Department are exactly meas
ured by the speed with which itreaches
and commences its operations at fire !;
and the twenty, ten or five minutes that
are lost by our present system in assem-
bling the necessary ofiicsrs'and men, are
dearly paid for by all the money saved
to the treasury by the system that pro-
duces this delay.

San ApDcal TO Arms. -

Such is the heading to an article in
the New York Tribune announcing the
Presidents message asking for dicta-
torial powers. "Practically tbs message
Git says) miH prove an appeal 10 arms"
The effect OF this message on the
country will be far more exciting, we
imagine, than either its writer or Con-
gress contemplates. 1t is recognition
OF the great strength Of the Ku-Klux
organization, which many persons at
the North have heretofore regarded with
indifference; these will now understand,
in the light OF this official declaration,
that the alarm was sounded none too
soon by the public press.
This indicates the purpose and ex-
pectation Of the bad men who have
control OF the Government. 1t is not
pretended that any new facts have come
to the knowledge OF the President-he
knows nothing more than he did three
weeks ago, when he told Congress he
had nothing to communicate: apd in his
message he expressl y refers to the test-
monv taken by the committee OF the
Senate last session, as the motive to his
action. The message is intended to i'm
press the North with the gravity of the
danger, and induce the belief that there
are new and startling revelations. 1t is
at the same time designed to inflame
tho nacs;ons of the South and proyOke
outbreaks. On this point, we would
most earnestly warn all our Southern
people to be on their guard. Cunning
expedients of various sorts will be re-
sorted to to exasperate them and entrap
them into indiscretions. 1t is the last
effort OF a cruel and hypocritical despot-
ism. We beg our people 10 bGHc ii by
prudence and torJearance.-Richmoa

Mr. MCCORMICK. of Arizona, VIII

Mr.. MCCORMICK, OF Arizona, who re-
Gently introduced bill into the House,
the object OF which was to prevent the
indiscriminate and useless killing OF
bison along the line Of the Pacific rail
road, says that last winter train Of cars
was showed in for ten days on the track,
and that the passengers would have
starved had it not been for the bison
which it was then possible to shoot.
As nature will continue to snow upon
trains, and as similar misbaps will oc-
cur in other winters, and sthe continu-
Gus shooting of the beasts will not only
DESTROY some, but terrify all, and make
them avoid the route, it would certainly
be well to defer pleasure for the sake Of
future convenience. Twenty-Five years
ago an objection was made in Congress
to the building of the Pacific road, on
the ground that the bison would trample
upon, tear up and render the track use
less. Now that this objection has been
found to be ungrounded, legislation is
to make turn and protect the beasts
from the results of the road.

clergyman, sent from New Jersey to
North Carolina in 1868 to establish a
school for colored men as teachers
under the patronage of the Episcopal
Church, was witness before the Senate
Outrage committee, and there testi'
fed, among other things, that Governor
Holden said to him that "in his (Hol.
den's) opinion General Grant would
hold the government of the United
States, no matter what the election was
in 1872; that he (Holden) desired him
Grant to be emperor, and his son to
succeed him as emperor. This isvery
pretty talk, and doubtless got into
Holden's pate when hanging around
the White House. ..... -...

From the Indianapolis People.l
The Death OF Dr.. Lawrence, alias
MeBride-Exit the "Hungartan
Doctor"
Most of our citizens were familiar
with the tall, well-built form OF DR..
Lawrence, otherwise DR.. Mcbride, who
was remarkable for his long hair and
broad-brimmed hat, and styled himself
the Hungarian Doctor" and many
will be surprised to learn that he is
dead. He died one day last week, after
a very brief illness, Of some species Of
lung affection for which the doctors
have a name, but we have forgotten it.
The real name of the deceased We be-
live was Mcbride, aud he claim
ed to- have been a Colonel in the
rebel army. This may or may
not have been the case. He was evil
dently'ran ,adventurer, hut had never
seen Hungary We have met him in
different cities during the past eight or
ten wears, and always recognized him
as DR.. Mcbride. He would appear
upon the streets in a 'fasby turnout,
drawn by sometimes two and sometimes
four horses, and while seated in his
buggy would dispense his medicine,
which was warranted, Of course, to cure
! all the ills that flesh is heir TO. 1t
was said that he would sell bis
! medicines by day and gamble
away the money at night He
would seldom take rooms, as he did
in this city, and advertise for patients:
We have been told that the deceased
in some cases was very successful as a
doctor. We know that he did quite an
extensive business a short period before
his death and many implicitly believe
in him and his medicines. His career
was an eventful one. At one time we
understand that he had to leave Ken
lucky for some misdemeanor; at an
other the Cincinnati papers announced
the sending to the Work-house of DR..
Mcbride. 1t is said that short time
before his death woman entered his
room and robbed him OF all the money
he had. He Lived from hand to meuth,
never saving up anything for a rainy
day, being almost crininally prodigal
with his money, which he lavished upon
his female friends. 1t was frequently
the case that his patients would find
the Doctor engaged in sweet dalliance
with some one of his favorites, all OF
whom deserted him when sickness came
and the hand Of death took hold Of him
His relatives are unknown-it is said
that he has sister living who has been
notified Of his death. Meanwhile the
body, late go .tull OF life, lies in the vault
of an undertaken, subject to the demand
OF relatives or friends.
The Doctor McBRIDE whose death is
announced above (for the second or
third time, we believe) is undoubtedly
the long-haired King Of Pain" well
remembered by many Of orr citizens.
We have heard that he hal relatives

The efficacy OF FOs.etter's Celebrated
Stomach Bitters rs Il specific for recruiting

spending mind, has passed into prOverb
In the United states, where this marvellous
tonic has borne down all opposition, and
eclIpsed all rivalry, the demand = Il has
annually increased in heavier and heav-
Ter raj 10 for years, until, at last, the regular
sales of this preparation exceed those OF all
other stomachics combined. Eminent men,
bers of the medical profession and hospital
surgeons without num.sT, have candidly
admitted that the pharmacoLc n!a Of the fac
ulty contains no prescription that produces
such beneficial effects in dyspepsia, general
debility and nervous diseases, as Hostetter's
Bitters. To use the language of venerable
physician CT New York, "The Bitters are
the pureSt stimClant and the safest tonic We
have" But the uses Of the great vegetable
antidote are much more comprehensive
than such praise would imply. As a pre-
paratory antidote TO epidemic disease, a
genial stimulat, promoter OF constitu-
tional vigor, an appetizer, stomachic, and
aremedy for nervous debility, no medicinal
preparation has ever attained the reputa-
ton OF Hostetter's Bitters. 1t is the house
hold tonic of the American people, and in
all human probability will be for centuries
to come. The magnates OF science recognize
its merits; and that IL is emrhatically the
medicine of the masses, IS proven by It's
vast and ever increasing sales.
