The ERneS.Scrirs Bill,

The House of Delegates must be tired Of
this bill. There can surely be no necessity
for any more speeches upon the main ques-
ton involvcd--that is, as to whether this or
that college Shall have the fund. All that
any member can now reasonably demand Is a
fair vote. 1t is not sufficient evidence that
any given institution Is not the choice Of n
majority of the members, that motion to
strike the name OF that institution out Of the
bill is carried. The success of the motion
may be due to the fact that that Institution
is thus put into competition, not with any
one other institution, but with every other
school OF college in the State. Cannot the
real choice Of the members be ascertained!
And since the Legislature seems bent upon
dividing the fund into three parts, would not
the choice in each case be more clearly made
manifest if instead of taking the vote upon
them together each institution were made to
stand upon its own merits Hampton In
stitpte might be omitted altogether in the
voting, inasmuehas every member has already
determined to give to That institute one-third
Of the fund. Then let the vote not be first
taken upon the question, "Shall the other
two-thirds be divided or given to one fnsti-
tutioni" because the effect would be to secure

learned fool, and BUTLER her most unscrupr-
l1u> Elavc. Both are in Congress. SuHHEl
having proposed in the Senate bill to ren-
d"r nc@rocs superior to whites, BUTLER, moi
r. lc left behind in race for negro i2'or,
introduced one Of the same kind into The
House OF Representatives Gil Monday last. Il
WAS referred to q committee. Here is EUT-
L-E'5 infamous project:
'.G,. it enacted, &C., Whoever being 4 cor
rorativn or natural person and owner, or III
c..c.e Of any place Of public amusement or
entertainment for Which license fron any
legal authority is required, or Of any line OF
sLIge coaches, railroad, OF other means O,
putic GalTiagc Of passengers or freight, or OF
any church or place Of worship to which the
public generally arc admitted, or of any place
Of pubic education to which pupils are adj
milleG free, or by the payment Of tuition or
fees, shall make any distinction rs to adlnis-
sion or accommodation therein of any citizen
OF the United States because of race, color,
nationality, or previous condition OF serVl-
tudc, shall, OH conviction thereof, be lined
not less than $500 nor more than $4,000 for
each offence, to be recovered by information
fled 10y the district attorney III any courl

any person injured, onc-half to the use Q!
tue United States, and one-half to the use Oh

"Srcr1oS 9. The offences under this ACT
may be prosecuted before any territorial, dis
trict, or circuit court Of the United state
having jurisdiction Of crimes OF the place
where the offence was charged to have bccl
committed"
It will be seen that BUFFERS bill goes rar.
Their than SuaSER's. The latter would open
all the public schools, us well a, churches,
hotels, theatres &C., to the negroes; but the
former would open to them the private a.
well as the public schools. 1t specifies g any
place of public education to which pupils are
admitted free, or by the payment Of tuition
or fees" This bill would certainly include
in its terms the University Of Virginia, tn
Military Institute, and whatever institutions
might have the land-scrip fund; and we SCI
no reason to doubt that it would incAd
every school Of every grade in the Union
though we suppose that BUTLER introduced
the words "public education into 1t to mis-
lead the House into supposing that it III
cluded only public schools.
Let any such bill as this be passed, and tn
people Of Virginia will put an end to tn
present excellent system Of common. school
