Dr. Redfeld's Chattanooga Letter to Cincin
natl Commercial.
civil Rights i'm a HARDER Shop.

That was a good reply which a
colored barber in this city gave to
a delegation of colored men who
called upon him for the purpose of
claiming the right to be shaved the
same as a white man. Sir said
the spokesman of the delegation,
I'VE demand the right to be shaved
here
1T can't be DONE answered the
colored barber.
Then the spokesman came down
with a pertinent thrust, saying,
'Aint our money as good as any
body's?' And the colored barber
answered thus: Eyes, just as good,
but there is not enough of it,
That covered the case exactly
1t was an answer worthy of a phi
losopher. The darky's money is
as good as anybOdy's to the barber,
but there is not enough of it to
compensate him for the loss of his
white custom.
The barber, in telling me this cir
cumstance, said: Il am a colored
man and have to work for a living,
aud the minute | commenced shay
ing darkies, that minute every one
of my white customers would leave
me. The biggest Radical in town
would quit me just like the Demo-
Gratis. It's contrary to the nature
of white man to want to mix that
way with the negroes; and, what's
more, they won't do it. You can't
get white man in this town to
shave in a shop where negroes are
shaved; wouldn't either, if was
them; and Pm not going to break
up my business to accommodate a
few swell-head niggers, who want
to put on all the style Of white
men,
Now, when colorcd men will not
admit their colored brethren to the
enjoyment of equal rights in the
barber-shop, how are we TO expect
white men to do il?

New Orleans Bulletin: 'Yester-

1t appears that Mr.. Phillips, when
he first learned that Ames had sent
a requisition for him on the charge
of dueling, absented himself a short
time to see whether Kellogg
would recognize the document.
When he learned of Kellogg's
action in .furthering Ames' resolve,
he sent word to Officer Pierson,
who turned him over to Duval, who
was sent from Mississippi. Mr..
Phillips, accompanied by some
friends, went over to Bay St. Louis,

CALIFORNIA WHEAT PROSPECTS.
Last year the acreage sown TO
wheat in California was ,696,622,
and the average yield was between
thirteen and fourteen bushels per
acre, and this too in a season OF
protracted drouth, that in many
places left only half a crop, and in
other localities destroyed it entire
". This year about 100000
acres have been added to the area
sown last season, making the entire
acreage under crop, in round num-
bers 100000. Using the acreage
of last year as a basis for calcula-
ton, it IS reasonable to expect a
yield of 3O,0OO,00O bushels this
season; but, as the present season
has been most favorable, an average
of twenty bushels to tho acre
would not be excessive, giving 49,
100000 bushels, or 100000
centals, of the result of the wheat
yield for 1874

LITTLE DUMMY.-There is a man
in Detroit who has a reputation as
q boy-tamer, and when the police
get tough customer of the little
blubbering boy species they send
Immediately for this profes-
sional. They found a small boy
who appeared to be lost the other
day, and they wanted to ascertain
something of his antecedents. The
boy boO-hooed cloquently but
would not speak a word. They
sent for the boy charmer as they
would have sent for a docter in a
case of cholera. He came with one
pocket full of candy, another bulg
ing of raisins, peanuts in his hat,
and an orange in his hand, oozing
all over with generosity.
He told the boy that all those
things should be his and more in
abundance ifhe would stop bowling
and answer few questions. He
would not answer to his name; and
Tommy, Jimmy and Billy, and
Johnny being mentioned to him he
nodded his head to them all with
an air OF recognition. Several
streets were mentioned, and he nod
ded that he lived in them all. In
the same manner he signifed that
his father drove a dray, kept store
and was a sailor; that be had scores
OF brothers and sisters, and uneles
and auRts, and all thissort of thing.
The boy agreed to everything and
sucked a stick of candy with some
show of content. The charmer
emptied his pockets around him
and acknowledged himself a total
failure. In due time a woman call
ed at the station and asked if they
had seen anything of a little dunn
N.Y. They had. The mother ex-
planned that the boy had never
| talked.

In Baltimore, Grants marshals ap-
pointed 400 assistants TO crowd around

people of few tens Of thousands Of
dollars were all the evils there is in
this--and this is evil enough--thc dan

cy which is so steadily and fatally
drawing the chains of centralists over
the people, and putting sucli power
over and around their ballot-boxes.-
The federal marshals assume that they
have right to arrest without warrant

Commissioner. Before our govern

Of Grant and his party, such acts OF
tyranny and federal interference in
elections would have reused the people

clock On Saturday morning. Mr.. VIM.
NJ. Candy has not acted bit too soon.
We hope he will receive such encourage
nent from our people rs viii enable him
TO succeed in inducing the City Council
to pause and consider well before pro-
cceding further with the basin as origi-
nally proposed. If hundred thousand
dollars can be saved by erecting a small
er basin amply large to serve the city

ia the greatest folly to build one double

PoI,ticaL Ignorance.

The Commercial says that the GAZETTE
"made mistake of sixteen members OF
Congress- in six States" Any one Of Or
dinary intelligence would have seen at a
glance that the GAZETTE figures" mark
ed the number of Republican members
in the 4tth Congress, and not the whole
number to which the States named were
entitled. The figures were made up from
the 7'fbuae's table and copied into the
GAZETTE. And had the Comm creial been
fully conversant with the heavy losses
which its party had sustained in the
Congressional delegations of the States
named it would not have shown its own
ignorance, or fallen into the error of pa
radins figures which SO fully portrayed
Republican losses and Democratic gains,
in what it calls Gazette errors" The
would-be U. S. Senator had Better show
u little common sense before he under
takes again to place himself before our
people for such high honors. Delaware
has not fallen so low as to need carpet
bagger TO represent her in the national
councils.
But the Comasrial puts Nevada in its
column, which shows its ignorance Of
the fact that that State win be repre-
sented in the Forty fourth Congress by a
Democrat. Nor does it recognize the
fact that the revolution las just COM
menced; that in the rising political tide
many of the fourteen States with their
G3 votes may be swept away in 1875,
il not before. 1t can scarcely be expect
ell that tidal wave that is so powerful
as to carry Massachusetts from her polit.
ical moorings will subside before it takes
with it most of the offspring of the Old
Bay State. And we can assure the Com.
n,crcial that we do not err when we state
that the Massachusetts Democrats hope
t. be able to hold their State and cast
her vote for Democratic President in
1876. They are tired of Butler and San
born and the Credit Mobilier frauds and
her people are determined, like those oi
the other States that have seen the foul
corruption of Republican politics, tc
grant the Radicals leave Of absence fo,
