TUESDAY. DECEMBER 1.

An impression among many that the tide
Of emigration has turned towards Europe
to the permanent loss of the new world, is
vigorously denied by the New York Bulle-
tin. On last Saturday the steamers which
left the port of New York carried 1850
passengers. A reporter went among
them to gather data explanatory of
the apparent rush to the old country.
In the first place it is found that
the outward flow of emigrants is not much
larger than it has been for the two previous
years. Secondly, the conclusion is reached
on investigation that a very small pro-
portion Of outward passengers are leaving
these shores with an intention not to re-
turn. The absence is only temporary
and is induced by various causes. One
cause is the low rates OF fare enabling
many during the comparative idleness of
winter to go and visit old homes, old friends
and kindred. A considerable number are
found to be those who pass back and forth
regularly, some as agents Of immigration,
others of those classes whose employment
is suspended in the winter, and
who can save money in the cost
of living by returning to friends in their
native land. All these may be
expected back in the spring. In short,
there is coming TO be a great number who
regard the voyage as a light affair, and
often make it both for interest and pleas
ure. But a small number of those who are
going are dissatisfied with America, and
abandoning it finally because of discourage
ment or i'll success. On the other hand,
hundreds and thousands will go to return
with others brought over through their per-
sonal influence.

track freight road from New York to
an achievement Western producers feel a
glow OF incipient goodwill and gratitude
toward the men who contemplate such a
great scheme for bringing the Mississippi
Valley closer to the sea. AS a matter OF fact
the Central Railroad will soon have four
tracks in operation between Albany and
Buffalo, and the first link in the new chain
may be considered as formed. If Wander
bilt can not advance farther, why should not
a serious effort be made to move on to
meet him? Few Of our people yet realize
the fact that raiIroading is still in it's in
fancy, and that the frst important improve
ment in all traffic and production, namely,
the division of labor, is still to be introduced
in our overland transportation. No wonder
that freightage is dear when freight trains
are run at intervals between passenger
trains, lying by OF switches every
few hours, and losing time and wasting
propelling power in stopping and starting
up again every few miles. 1t is difficult to
overrate the delays or expenses occasiOned
by such a system. Conceive instead Of it,
the existence OF a double track road built
especially for freight transportation. On
such a route through trains might be kept
running continuously at q low rate of speed
and with short intervals of time
between. The expenditure of steam
power would be decreased, the necessity
for hundreds of hands now kept busy in
shifting trains out of the way of each other
would be obviated and the capacity for
freightsgs would be rendered almost meal
culable. With proper facilities for handling
products at the termini such a road would
go far toward solving the great problem Of
the age. The mon that build il will reap a
fortune for themselves as we'll as earn a peo-
pies gratitude.

A REFUTED

GEN. SHERIDAN ON THE BLACK HILLSIDE
DENIES THAT ANY MINERS ARE THERE.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 27.-The secretary OF
war to-day forwarded the following tsle-
gram fro m Gen. Sheridan TO the secretary OF
the interior:
CHICAGO, Ills, Nov. 81.
To Brig Zen. Townsend, Washington:
1 wish to relieve the honorable secretary
of wal from any apprehension coming from
a false statement going the rounds OF some
Eastern papers, reporting that miners are at
work in the Black Hills. 1t is possible that
the report may have originated from the re-
cent discovery of gold 40 miles north of
Laramie City, on the Union Pacific railroad,
where many miners have gone. This place
is at least 200 miles southwest of the Black
Hills. [Signed1 p. H. SHERIDAN,

The comptroller of the currency presents
aseheme for the resumption of specie pay
ments which will be met with storms OF de-
nunciation from politicians of every
party. 1t certainly is a very lovely
and intricate piece of imagination,
and the description of it reads like
the development of one of Colonel
Sellers schemes, and one expects at the close
ofthe comptroller's disquisition to meet
with the familiar announcement, "There's
millions in It'll" The new plan suggests
reaching a gold basis according to the
old maxim that the longest way round
is the shortest way across. 1t
suggests the reduction of the greenbsck cir
culation and the issue of national bank
notes to replace the legal tenders withdrawn.
In due course of tine the legal
tenders will grow scarce, and as the
national bank notes are redeemAble
in ~greenbacks, the banks Will have
to contract their issues to meet the demands
which will be made upon them for legal
tender notes. To supply the deficiency
thus created the gold OF the country will
flow into circulation. The whole
thing is very beautifully mapped out,
but the ways seem so devious
and involved that some of the currents OF
Of business might possibly fail to pursue the
channels traced for them by the far-seeing
comptroller, and the result would be disas-
trous. The far-of promised good the people
will look upon with dubious eye, but
the immediate evil which the scheme
will effect they can not fail
to appreciate, namely, the increase of the
power, influence and immunities of those
who are at present regarded with no great
good will by large classes in the commun-
ity. The plan will be- simply looked upon
as a trick OF the banking monopoly now in
existence.

It is said that Mr.. VOORHEES, represents tht
editor of the Sentinel as personally hostile t.
him. That gentleman is mistaken. TIL
editor OF the Sentinel is opposed to a great
deal of his political teaching, and regards
him neither in theory nor practice as a safe
leader for the democracy of Indiana; but o.
Mr.. VOORHEES, individually, he can only say
that his kno Wedge is very slight and alto
gether pleasant. That gentleman bears about
him too much tact, good nature, and per
sonal magnetism ever to make an unfavOr-
able impression upon q stranger. In the dis.
eussion of the senatorial question the 5enti-
mel has not yet drifted into personalities,
notwithstanding the courseof Mr.. Voorhees,
adherents in the vile abuse of his Oppo-
nents, and more especially of every
one connected with this paper. The 10
tinel has thus far endeavored TO
induce the democracy of Indiana to select a
Senator on certain general principles, which
will establish them in the confidence of the
people, and secure them against the attacks
of their rivals. The advocates of Mr.. Voor-
bees, have, on the other hand, been simply
making a campaign on the good qualities of
their candidate as a friend and partizsn, and
through indiscriminate abuse of every pOliti-
cal rival. The temerity with which they do
this, considering the vulnerable rec
ord of their champion, is wonderful.
1t is ANOTHER illustration of the
recklessness with which those who
live in glass houses are accus-
toned to throw stones. The Sentinel has
no ambition or malice to satisfy in this
matter of the choice of senator. but it has
yer, decided opinions as to the effect ofthe
choice which may be made upon the ulti-
mate success of principles, which it believes
TO be of much more Importance than the
Advancement of Mr.. Voorhees,, or any other
gentleman in Indiana, or out of it.

The legislature, under our state constitution
as it existed without the limitation imposed
upon the sovereign power of the state by the
18th amendment as hereinbefore stated, had the
power to provide for the education only of the
white children of the state; but since its ratih-
cation no system of public schools would be
general. uniform ana equally open 20 an when
children of the state. 1t being settled that the
legislature must provide for the education of
children, we are required To determine whether
the legislature may classify such children, by
color and race, ana provide dT Sneir eaucatloa
the same school without reference to race or
color. In our opinion the classification of
scholars, ON the basis OF race or color, ana their
education in separate schools, involve questions
of domestic policy which are within the legisia-
tive discretion and control, and DOES not amount
to an exclusion of either class. In other words,
the placing of the white children of he state in
one class and the negro children OF the state in
another class, and requiring these classes to be
taught separately. provision being made for
their education in the same branches, accord

BILE teachers, and TO the extent OF their pro rata
share in the school revenue, does not amount TO
a denial of equal privileges to either, nor con-
dict with the open character OF the system re-
quired by the constitution.
The result ofthe litigation is that the COM
plainant can compel the state to furnish
education for his children, but can not die
tate the manner in which it shall be done.
It would be presumption on the part of
the Sentinel to attempt either criticism
or eulogy of a legal argument so able,
so learned, so elaborate and so carefully
considered as this opinion; but it may not
be inappropriate, to say that this journal can
not acknowledge the force of that part of the
argument, which holds that the provisions
OF an instrument framed years ago must

opinion then prevailing, to the exclu-

Don't Weep Julia.

The habit Of hanging mackerel on nail
near tho door to drip broke up match on
Essex street, short time since. The
couple got home late in the evening, and,
going around back of. the house, as not to
disturb the folks, they sat down on the
stoop to think. During the progress she
leaned her head in new spring hat,
against the ho use, and became absorbed in
the stars and other improvements, while
he tenderly eyed his boots. About half an
hour was spent in this profitable occupation
when the young man felt something trickle
down his neck. "Don't weep, Julia" he
softly murmured. 81 amt" she said,
surprised. He looked up and his eyes
rested on an oozy substance back of her
head. "What's that on the back of your
hatP" he cried. She jumped up at this
interrogation, and instinctively placing her
hand ON the the back of her head, drew it
away again full of an unpleasantly favored
slime. With a shrek Of rage and passion
the infuriated girl tore the maclerel from
the nail, and trampled it beneath her feet,
while she snatched off her hat and tore it
in shreds with her livid fingers. The hor-
ror stricken young man not knowing what
else to do, jumped the first fence and dis
appeared, and hasn't been seen since.
