We involuntarily admire that justice
which is no respector Of persons. i A
bank director in England some two weeks
since nsed securities to tbs. amount Of
$40. 900 and the banks name for S75, 900
more. But Notwithstanding his stand
ing, and the fact that he was Judge of
| the Royal Court, he was tried and SEN
tenoed' to five years penal scr7isutle.
This Is much better than the system Of
| compounding with dishonest bank Of
ficials which is so common in this coun.
try.
a Keokuk pastor told his cons regaton
that the late tornado in Iowa VAS tho
| visitation Of O special Providence to
punish people for their sins. We know
of few sins much wor3o than the pre-
kumptuous familiarity which prompts 8
week and erring mortal to talk about the
purposes and intentions of the Deity
with as much freedom as if he WAS lis
cusslng the points OF yoke Of oxun.

| A DIsaRACEEUn RIOT THREE GER
MANS WoraDED. --Oa Sunday afternoon
q disgraceful riot occurred ncar the city
limits, in which several white men were
seriously hurt Tie particulars Of tho
af-ay, as nearly as eau be asccr:uia aed
from an eyewitness, are as follows:
About 5 O'Clock o party Of eight or pine
Germans were playing cards and nine.
pins in the store Of Dir. August Tienckcn,
Immediately. above The three-rlile house.,
at that hour IL coiorcd nap, evidently
drunk, enterc1 tie store, and in very
boisterous manner jostlcd against several
OF the party. Upon being demonstrated
with, he rushed from tEe store in rude
manner, knocking ovnr tic proprietor,
and swearing vapgeunca upon the heads
of the cntire party. No more WAS
thought Of the occurrence until tho
party arose to return to the city. They
were met at tho door by crowd Of about
soventy-fiye oolored men, armed with
sticks. clubs md brick bats, and who
forthwith attacked the party Of Germans
The brick batting waa kept up until the
party reached Chinquapin Lane, and
took shelter in tho omnibus. Three Of
tbs Germans, Richard Gravcr, a u.
Heneken and Henry Hencken. were cut
on tho head by bricks Or clubs, and we're
wounds wero dressed by d., G. L. Mover,
who WAS called in for the purpose. The
attacking party was led by the drunken
negro who first entered the store, and
was very violent and offensive. None Of
them were recognized, and consequently
no arrests have been made. It is quito
probable that the negroes. remembering
tho orgies Of 1871, we're getting their
hands i'll preparatory to the coming mu-
nicipal election. - Caar!esip. Nens.
