Civil Rights Ei1H.

| The Civil Rights Bill, INTRODUCED IN Con.
gpess by Hon. B. 3. Butler, after being de.
hated at length, was recommitted to the
committee whence it issued, which we pre-
sume will be the last of it in its present
shape. No true friend Of the negro in the
| Southern States could have desired the pas
sage of this bill, which will be found else
where published to-day. In Virginia, it
would have been the death of the Free
Seheo. system, in which the colored people
are deeply interested as the main instrument
I in elevating their condition in every aspect
It would also have been direct blow aimed
at the charitable and educational institutions
of the State, and would haye proved effec-
tual in their final destruction. The recogni-
ton Of the equal rights Of the negro, under
the law, does not carry with it social equality.
Tha bill OF Mr. Butler contemplates SOCIAL
equality. This is not desired by either race,
and any legislation looking to the enforce
ment of any such policy would necessarily
be destructive to the peace. of society. The
Bill of Rights of Virginia provides, "Th.t
all citizens Of the State are hereby declared
to possess equal civil and political rights and
public privileges This is part of the
fundamental law of the State, and is as
comprehensive as words can make it. 1t
does not, however, cover the assumed rights
Of Mr.. Buffers bill, tLat is, the right to en-
ter white schools, and charitable institutions
established especially for whites. The equal
ity in these respects is secured by providing
teachers Of equal capacity in the colored
schools, and charitable institutions with the
same humane objects in view. This has
been done in Virginia. To ask more is in
dicative Of sedi,ious spirit ompted by
bad motives, for the practical result would
be a lasting and eGaceab!s harm to both rae
es No friend of the peace and progress Of
society-no well-wisher Of the colored race,
would be willing TO bring on conflict Of
races. Such legislation as is contemplated
in the Butler bill would most assuredly do
this. Social equality and social intercourse
ars questions that are above the jurisdiction
Of laW-,hey are the result of instinct that
no law can reach, and to attempt to force
them BY legislative enactment is to seek to
do that which law was never intended to
regulate. Mr.. Butler will defer to the best
interest Of the colored people, especially of
Virginia, by desisting from the agitation of
his bill as reported When equal rights and
equal privileges, in the eses of the law, are
nos allowed, i5 is violation Of the guaran-
tees Of the Bill Of Rights eff Virginia, and
redress may be asked by the method prorid-
ed by law.

the Legislature who are also grangers, was
held at Jefferson City last night 1t is un-
dsrstood they demand retre4chmsnt and re-
form in all the departments of the State
government. They declare that railroads

must submit to the same laws that govern
individuals; that tho national banking law
should be repealed, and that the Government
should issue its own currency without the
intervention Of corporate bodies.
Another meeting will be held in a few
days, at which, it Is expected, legislative
grange will be formed 1t is stated the
granger members will act as unit On all
questions Of financial policy and political re.
forms without regard to former political as

viding for cheaper railroad rates. and for
semi-anlua payment Of taxes. They also
propose establishing graugers banks at St.

CATION or cultivation" The Pc
culiar phraseology led the custom
officials to hold that only those
fruits and plants which were
imported for propagation or cul-
tivationr were included. Under
this ruling, duties have been paid
on oranges, lemons, lines, grapes
of all kinds, figs. prunes, bananas
and other fruits. Many of the
importers paid the duty under
protest. These will be entitled to
recover duties on these articles
paid by them since August l, 1872.
Those who have not entered pro-
tests cannot recover, as the law
requires all persons who may De
dissatisfied with the decision Of
the Collectors at the port where
the goods are entered, 10 give
notice in writing to the collector
on eaeh entry, setting forth sDe-
officially the grounds Of objection
,herevv, and within thirty days
after the date of such ascertain
ment and liquidation, to appeal
therefrOm to the Secretary of the
Treasury, to begin suit to recOv-
er the amount of the duties paid
under the decision of the Secreta-
ry. The official returns show that
of fruit and nuts (they are group
ed together) there are imported |
annually about $1O,OOO,OOO worth. |
1t is estimated that the recent de- |
clsion of the Secretary Of the |
Treasury will make a difference
of between 100000 and S500,00O |
annually, in the customs receipts.
The back duties which Gamble
collected by those who have en-
tered written protests will amount
to probably about $3OO,OOO.-NY Y.

OVER THE RIVER.

Over the river they beckon to me,
Loved ones who've crossed to the FUR
ther side.
| The CLEAN of their snowy robes l see,
But their voices are lost in the dashlns
tide.
There's one with ringlets of sunny gold,
And eyes the reflection of heavens owl
| blue;
He crossed in the twilight, gray and cold
And the pale mist hid him from morta
view.
We saw not the angles who met him there
| The gates of the city we could not see,
Over the river-oveI the river
sly brother stSads waiting to welcome
ms.
Over the river the boatpsn pale
Carried a60ther, the household pet;
Her brown curls waved in the gentle gale
Darhng Miana ! see har ge'
She crossed ol hes bosom a-r diu1.'a
hands
ana IearIessIy entered the phantom
bark,
We felt it glide from the silver sands
And all our sunshine grew strangely
dark.
We know she is safe on the further side,
Where all the ransomrd and angles be;
Over the river-the mystic river
MY chiIdhoOd's idol is waiting fer me.
For none return from those quiet shores
Who cross with the bOatman cold and
pale
We hear the dip of the golden oars,
And catch CLEAN of the snowy sail;
And 10! they have passed from yearning
hearts,
Who cross the stream, and are gone for
aye,
We may not sunder the veil apart,
That hides from our vision the gates OF
day;
We only know that their barks no more
May sail with us over lifes stormy sea;
Yet 81 mewhere, / know, on that unseen
shore,
They watch, and beckon, and wait for
me.
And 1 sit and think when the sunsets gold
Is flushing river and hill and shore,
l shall one day stand by the water cold
And list for the sound of the boatman's |
oar; |
I shall watch for CLEAN of the Aapn'no
saii I
shall hear the boat as it gains ,le
strand, |
I shall pass from sight with the boatman |
pale
To the better shore of the spirit and !
[ shall know the loved who have gone be-
fore,
And joyfuly sweet will the meeting be,
When over the river-the peaceful river
The angel of death shall carry me.

An Exhausted Husband.

The following bit of charming
unsophistication, purporting tC
have been written by a young
wife in New York to her prim
and specialized maiden aunt in
Boston, will be read with curious
interest by the more enlightened
reader:
My DEAR AUNT-AIthough you

my wedding, that | was too young

choosing a mate for life properly,
and with due consideration.

In selecting dear Orlando l have
gained a most affectionate and
attentive husband, and one who
has neither a fault nor a vice.
Heavens! what must a girl suffer
who finds herself united to a dis
slpated person, neglectful of her
and disposed to seek the society
of unworthy persons, who drink,
smoke, and do all sorts of dread
full things!
Thank heaven, Orlando is per-

A Darwinian Tippler.

A rarely philosophical "bum-
mer." who was brought before
the Bangor Police Court the other
day, evolved a theory, that must
be exceedingly comforting to
the weak and erring. James
IIennessey was his name, and
when the Justice, severe of as
pet, asked rim what he
had to say to the charge Of being
drunk, he calmly arose and said /.
" Your honor, am a DarWinian.

looking over his store of cocoa
nuts, when he picked up one for
his breakfast, in which the milk
had fermented. He drank the
liquor. and got gloriously drunk,
and ever after he always kept his
cOcoanuts until fermentation took
place; Judge then. whether a ten
dency, handed down through iu-
Vulnerable ancestors should not
be taken in my defense" Cast

Justice. said {: "I am sorry that

Indian Summer continues.
Small Fruits for Farmers.

Dsagreoabls as it may sometimes
be to tell the truth, still it should be
told, if for no other purpose than to
make certain persons do their duty.
At least two thirds CT our farmers
supply their families with oA]y the
earnest kinds of food, such as pota-
toes, pork, and bread. The children
eat bread and milk until their stom-
aches get sufficiently strong to digest
pork and beans, with an occasional
lump of beef and mutton for change.
Now, we hold that if there is any one
thing that will make a child lingcr,
either in person or memory, near the
old homestead, it is the good and
wholesome meals provided by
"mother.' Does not every farmer
and farmers wife know that this is
truth? Then why do yon not strive
to supply your table with all the
Injuries that the climate will permit
OF producing.
Children are particularly fond Of
fruit, and it is the healthiest of all
food; and yet it is almost a rarity to
find it in abundance upon the tables
