COLORED CHILDREN ~ PUBLIC SCHOOLS
AT NEWARK, NEW JERSEY.


On Friday evening the Newark board Of
education decided to admit colored children
into public schools, by vote Of 81 to 1, The
negative vote was given by John Smith, a
name we think we have heard of before. An
exhaustive debate preceded the vote. Some
voted for the measure because II was necos-
sary TO provide schoOl-houses for colored
children, and this movement would save that
expense. In other words, 1t was a question
Of economy. Another view expressed was
that II the blacks have separate schools, Ger
mans, Irish, Chinese and other races might
demand them, and, as one speaker said, they
would have schools celestial and terrestrial.
But the prevailing sentiment was that II Is
time an effort was made to break down the
prejudice against the race and give them fair
opportunities to elevate themselves.

Il Is In tho Democratic papers nowadays
that one must look for information relative
to Mr.. Sumner 4 Co. We suppose the Mas
sachusetts Senator entsrtains tho opinion
which Is attributed to him by the World cor
respondent 1t Is Just like Mr.. Sumner.
During the war the rebel generals used to
circulate similar stories In the same paper,
but somehow they were the ones who ran.

Sad Story of a Southern Lady.

Between and 5 clock on Sunday after
noon policeman Ogevie and a number of citi-
zens found lady on Mon street, near the
corner of Twentieth, who had been lying in a
dangerous condition with an epileptic fit. She
was taken to the first station house, where med
ical aid was sum moned. and her sutferlngs COM
paratively relieved. When sufficiently recov-
cred she gave her name as Mrs. Priscilla Mil
Ter, of Charleston, S. G. She is apparently
about forty five years OF age, and had pleas
ant countenance and light hair and blue eyes.
Her maiden name, she says, was Hunt. Her
family or portion OF them, reside IN the c0un-
try, not far from Charleston.
During the siege Of that city, in the late war,
she was struck by piece OF she'll, and it is
from this cause, says her physician, that she is
so often attacked as she was on Sunday. Her
husband was killed while in the service of the
Confederate States She has son, however,
twenty years of age, who is now cadet at
West Point having gained admlttance there
through the Influence OF northern relative. -
It was while on 3 visit to thatclty that Chica 60
was visited with the recent confagratiop. Her
sisters husband here lest his life In the flames.
From the grief which this bereavement occa-
stoned his wife, she lost her mind, and while
being taken to the insane asylum in jackson
vile, Illinois, died, leaving one child, girl
Mrs. Miller being the nearest and perhaps the
only relative in that locality, the child fell to
her care. The Mayor of Chicago, through his
influence and aid, secured pass for the two from
Chicago to Charleston via Baltimore, which
last-named city she left on Saturday evening,
reaching Richmond on Sunday. Having a
brother-in-law in Petersburg, it was her iuten-
ton and desire to have reached that city yes
terday In Baltimore she says she remembers
having seen her niece the last time, but now
cannot recall to her recollection anything be-
yond that fact, nor does she know now she came
on Main street. at that hour The girl has not
since been heard from.
Mrs. Miller has been kindly cared for by the
officers at the first police station, and on yes
terday afternoon, about 2 clock, was taken to
the almshouss. Her friends will be notified
and no doubt when she has gained her strength
she will leave for her home IN the South. -
