ADMISSION OF CoLoRED PER-
SONS TO THEATRES.

Lewis Mitchell, with three friends,
all coored, purchased tickets for
Wallack's Theatre, New York, and
being denied admission the four
brought suits for damages under the
act Of Congress called the Civil
Rights bill. Elk Mayor Hall put in
unsworn answers for Mr.. Wallack.
The plaintiffs having refused to re-
ceive these, Judge Barrett, in Su-
preme Court Chambers, decided
that the defendant may serve an un-
verified answer, upon tho ground
that under chapter rs, laws of 1854,
he is privileged from testifying as a
witness to the truth of matter denied
by the answers,
The managers not being required
to answer on oath, it will be difiis
cult matter for the negro who has
been denied admission to the dress
circle TO establish the fact that his
exclusion was on account of race,
color or previous condition. In this
way the social equality question is
disposed of by the Northern courts.

DIsoRDERIY BoYs.-Boys who
dis turb meetings. as was done in a
Sunday school in this city, last
Sabbath, says the Rome Commercial,
should read and ponder the fate of
thirteen small boys in Kansas. =
These thirteen i'll advised boys were
guilty, so the story goes, of disturbing
Kansas camp meeting by insisting
upon shouting "Amen," when very
muscular preacher, who prided him
self on his voice, was singinga hymn
The preacher bore it for sometime,
but finally, becoming filled with
righteous wrath, he descended from
the pulpit, and never once Interrupt
ting his hymn, successfully reversed
and spanked the thirteen small boys.
As his avenging hand descended
and the dust Of the small boys filled
the air, the rest of the congregation
shouted in rapture, and loud cries
of $50 on, brother, so on" Then
he returned to the pulpit, still
singing, and those boys went half a
mile away behind hay stack and
laid down with their faces to the
ground, weeping, bitter ly.

TO THE POINT.

A writer for the Savannah News
gives briefly the true policy OF thu
Southern people in building up then
industrial independence. lie says
"Direct trade don't mean ship
ping cotton to England. That We
have always done. 1t means a re-
ciprocal return Of goods to us from
Europe. And how is that to be
achieved if our people in Savannah,
and our country merchants, buy in
Boston, New York, Philadelphia
and everywhere else but Savannah,
and have their printing, and tailor
ing, and shoemaking, and millinery,
and mantua making done in Broad
way, or Chestnut or Washington
strects9 Col Tiff and all other
earnest, patriotic men will work in
vain, unless the Southern people, as
a people, come to the rescue, aud be-
come patriotic likewise.
If Savannah is city, her citizens
must agree to make her SO, by en-
couraging city improvements in the
only substantial way, viz: encouf-
aging all working men and women
and shop keepers in Savannah"

Edwin English, aged twenty-on,
years, formerly of Alexandra, Va,
shot himself in Paterson, New York.
lie was of highly respectable fam
lily. He was engaged as clerk in q
Manhattan shirt store, but he be-
came involved in debt. He had been
paying his attentions to Miss Eta
Ford, and she had encouraged him
to such an extent that he was des-
perately in love with her. When
he pressed his suit, she heartlessly
tantalized bimb y saying 81 am sor-
ry, but do not love you. However,
wish you we'll" 1t so grieved him
that it drove him to drinking, for in
his case,
Love il is painful thrill,
But to love and not be loved again
Was more painful still"
He went to the clerks office, and sat
for a few minutes without attracting
attention, when he suddenly pulled
out revolver, placed the muzzle
against his right temple and fred
and he died shortly afterwards
The following letter was found in
his pocket:

l.. English, Alexandria, Va. Eta
Ford knows all. May God bless
her through life and keep her from
all harm and danger, My mind is
as sound as ever.

THr suFrER1NGs OF MEMpHIs.

THE 6UFPERINGS OF MEMPHIS.
The list Of the sufferings of Mem
phis during the current year is very
extraordinary and saddeniug. First,
commerce by river was impossible
on account Of ice for two months.
Next, as soon as the river was nav
igable that epizootic prevailed to
such an extent that there were no
horses to haul freight to the steam
ers-a fact which absolutely para,
lyzed trade and industry. The
third calamity was the small pox,
which SO frightened people in other
cities that Memphis was left in want
not only of necessary aid and atten-
tion, but of food. Fourth came the
indigenous" cholera, whose rav>
ages among an already disheartened
population were as severe as those
of the small pox. The cholera had
not fairly run it's course when the
yellow fever made its appearance as
the fifth scourge within ten months.
Then, as the sixth cause Of suffering,
came the financial panic. These
caIamilities certainly entitle Mem
phis to the largest measure OF aid
and sympathy, for nothing except a
Lisbon earthquake or Chicago fire
could cause greater suffering than
that known to the people of Mem
phis during this year.
