Civil Rights.


The Washington correspondent of
Erening City Item, Philadelphia, fur
nishes the following in connection with
one of our notabies:
WASHINGTON, D. Q. March 27.-Civil
Rights is receiving practical test at
the Arlington, Lieutenant Governor
p. B. 8. Pinchback, of Louisiana, be.
ing among the arrivals at that hotel.
AS yet have failed to hear of any of
the guests retiring or losing their ap
petite on account Of that distinguished
gentleman being under the same root,
and taking his meals the same a. other
citizens. Notwithstanding the asser.
tion made by Senator Hill, Of Georgia,
that the {. Negroes would not avail
themselves of tirst.class accOmmOla-
ton, if the opportunity were afforded
we find not only one very distinguish
ell Negro, but several others, taking
quarters ut one of the best hotels in
Washington.
Governor Pinchback, in appearance,
drpor1ment and e,lncatiou viii com
pare favorable with the many notab.es
Who visit Washington. AS puliti-
clan he has few equals and no su-
periors. l am creditly informed, that
he exercises a more practical contrell,
ing influence than any man in Losiisi
ana, aud in conversation with him you
become impressed with the earnest
manner in Which he discusses matters
pertaining to the advancement of his
race. He declares himself in favor Of
the re nomination, >of General Grant,
but complaints OF the way in which the
government officials I'm Louisiana at
tempt to subvert to their interests the
management of local and State affairs.
In recent conversation with the
President, he stated his grievances,
and assured him that unless \ STOP
was put to the interference in local
questions by Government officials IN
Louisiana, the tendency would be IL
drive from his support the Republican
voters of that State.
He used convincing arguments main
tanning that the State government wa,
doing more for the sustenance ant
prosperity of the Republican party
particularly the colored element, wbicl
is largely in the ascendency-than th'
general government.
The frank, able and lucid mammal
in which Lieutenant Governor. Pinch
back presented the situation in Louisi
ana won the attention of all. Whil
there were those who did not entertain
the same view Of the situation in tina
State, they could not but help admir-
iGg the the manly stand taken in ad
cacy of the measures proposed for re
lief. What his side ask for, is to b
let alone-that is, non.interference i

TIE MaRRE CASE.
Another Mysterious DeveIopmel

N nVNhDE IN AftN0A4Fas0A."s
The case Of the State VS.. Angelo
Marie on Indictment for receiving stolen
goods, is progressing in the Criminal
Court. To-day Doc Ransom, alias
Wright, the burglar and thief who
robbed Chief of Police Athy's safe, was
placed on the stand as witness to tes-
tify against Marie as to the disposal Of
the goods taken from the safe. What
ever Ransom may know about these
things his character as a burglar and
thief is so we'll established that his evil
dence will have but little weight, un-
less corroborated by other proof either
direct or strongly circumstantial.
Ransom and Marie have been confined
in the county Jail ever since the burglary
of the safe, and both have been indicted
for the crime. A strange story in con-
nection with these parties has been d.
vulged For some time after their ar
rest they were confined in separate parts
of the Jail, Ransom, for some reason
or other, had access to the outside Of the
Jail proper, but still inside the building.
He made a daring attempt to escape
some months since, and was shot by
Jailer Jackson while so attempting.
Since that time he has been slow y re-
covering from his wounds, and received
daily medical treatment from the Jail
physician, Dr. Marable. The drug clerk
at the Jail says that not long since,
while performing his usual duties,
Angelo Marie called him and offered him
thousand dollars if he (the drug clerk
would put certain powder (Which he
handed to him. in RANSOM coffee, or
use it in the water with which he washed
RANSOM wounds. The drug clerk took
the box containing the powder and soon
thereafter informed Jailer Jackson Of
the incident. The powder was taken
charge og by DR.. Marable, who discov-
cred it to be atropia, or the poisonous
extract of bella doHna-a most deadly
drug. This phase of the case will prob.
ably come out during the present trial,
and will receive some judicial inyesti-
cation. To-day the examination OF
witnesses is progressing. The State is
represented by Attorney General Wright,
Gen. Horrigan and Col. A. II. Douglass.
Marie is defended by Gen. Sale, Col.
Turner, Col. Cameron and Captain Van
Anderson. The court room was crowded
the spectators seemingly taking great
interest in the case as it progresses
