MAuoNE's EXPRESs.- -" The carriage of eX-
press mater belongs to no party alone. Cen
cral Malone has right 10 carry on his own
line, and he does carry ut two-th'rdS Inc
rates charged bv the Adams Company and
that there is no connection is the fault of the
Adams Company alone. ami the Dispatch Is
actually encouraging tie prolongiti0n OF
| the evil. Bristol teec$.
The Netrs doesn't understand tie subject.
Suppose we reduce is plan to practice: y
package which the Adams Company would
bring from New York to Richmond for fifty
cents is started from Bristol. General Ma
HONE brings it TO Burkcyille. He charges
fifty cents. MIR. BUFoED brings it to Rich
moud. He charges City cents. Then it may
cost as much 10 get it from the deIo- here to
the owners house. Here are three charges
TOR one service. The Adams Express Com.
pany would take the package at Bristol and
deliver it at the owners door for fifty cents.
What the people need but what MAuoSEs
apologists fail TO SEES an express that takes
packages from Your door, carries them
hundred or thousand miles, and delivers
them at the door Of TIE man to whom they
are addressed. MAHoSE's express does none
OF these things. 1t will not come to house
in Richmond and take up packages.
Mr.. BUFoRD clunot afford to do it. He
hls no wagons, and no messengers. The
ADAMS Express Company does that for all
express freight that passes over his line. \
pro-rTtiDg express company is hnmbuS, and
worse than humbug. The people Of Rich
monl want no such express facilities. They
want such as the people Of every other city
in the country have, and such as we have
over every line in the Union except Ma
HOMES line. SO unjustiiable are MAHoSE's
regulations-so fassbehird the timcs-so alb
surd, foolish, and inexcusable-thatn nothing
but judicial blindness can be pleaded as an
cvc,1se far falling to see that MAHoSE's ex-
nress is q nuisance, that ought TO be speedl-
IL abated. There is not man living that
can offer sound argument III its favor. NO
man can conscientiou>!y say that that IL III
express company at all which does not cX'
press ANYTHING. No man could look Rich
mond merchant in the face and say to him,
"MAuoSE's express is the best for your pur-
opposes. You can hire negro, ora wagon,
DOR q dray to take your goods to the Dan
"ville depot, and pay him for it. Then you
"cau run down and pay the freight to Burke
"vilc. Then you Can get Mr. BuFoRD TO
"pay the freight to Bristol" Why, the
trouble that Richmond man has in getting
Il package from the Danvlle depot to biz
house after the package reaches Richmond
many Of our people residing more than amile
from the depot-and the time that he would
lose would be greater tax upon him thar
the whole charge made by the ADAMS com
pany for taking the package at Bristol, bring
ing it to Richmond, and delivering it at tht
mans residence.

A letter appears in the New York Herald
from Lieutenant HYNEs, of the British ship
Challenger, in which he asserts that he has
pissed over the locality laid down by Captain
WILKES as that of a continent, and found no
land there. Little or no importance is at
tached to the statement since the Lieutenant
speaks of meeting with icebergs, whose
presence proves their proximity to land,
without which they could not be formed.
There certainly must be an Antarctic con-
tinent if these proofs of its existence are
found in the Antarctic sea.

distance are present Fifteen or more
horses have already arrived; among them
some Of the most celebrated runners and
trotters in this State.
In the Circuit Court on yesterday the trial

for the Commonwealth seemed to be quite
defective, the jury brought in verdict OF
guilty, and fixed his punishment ut three
years confinement in the penitentiary.
Ia the case of William Alexander, charged
with the murder Of negro girl, Il n0lle pro-
ScQui was entered.
The grand jury found the following addi-

keeping road in repair; Frank Burgess (co-
lored), for stealing pocket-book DR.. Il. 4.
McChesney, for assault and battery; and DR..
r. George, for carrying concealed weapons.

church have been holding for the past seve-
raj days was closed last night. The amount
realized was about nine hundred dollars.

On last Tuesday morning as the through

was passing Buffalo Gap, young man
named Mace Wren, in attempting to jump
on the train as it passed, fell, and was run

CIVIL RIGHTS IN CoSSECTICuT--IWo COL
orEp sTrpgNTs REFUSED EQUAL RIGHTS y
n THE SCFFIELD SCHooL.-Just at this time,
when the provisions of the civil-rights bill
relating TO "miXed schools is exciting
such wide discussion, an incident which has
iu.t occurred at the Connecticut Literary In
>tjtution at Sutlicld is Of especial interest.
Two colorcd students have left the school
under surprising circumstances, ana tney
send their side Of the story to 1he
,Sp,inqfeld Republican. They were form
crly Saves III the South, and after the
war theS came North seeking AN education.
Bcirc destitute of money. they entered 3
school where they could pay their expenses
by labor. They therefore went to the Sut.
ficll school, and for year and half served
AZ ilni,ors, rcciting regularly with the class.
g.. minclng with the students without re-
straint. and eating ut the common table.
. few DAYS ago the steward surprised them
with the information that they could no
longer eat at the common table, as
six of the students were unwilling to
have them there. The steward proposed
rl.at they cat at second table, or receive pay
for their labor and board themselves. They
&c, lined to do either, and insisted upon their
rights with the other students. The steward
refused to yield, and locked them into his
room, so that they could not go to the break
fast table. When released they sought the
principal, and told him they were determined
to leave the school. He entreated them to
STAY and 10 accept one Of the proposals of
the steward. saying that he had told the lat.
ter to make the propositions, but had advised
him TO let them remain rs before if they de-
cined to accept them.
To show the effects of mixed schools, we
quote from what these negroes say:
Ii may be the effort for our removal from
tie table originated with the expressed dis
like of the six boys to sit with us. But to
us this looks little strange, for we had al
ways been upon the most intimate terms
with them all, and certainly with three Of
them we had slept repeatedly together in the
same bed: we sometimes in theirs by invl.
tatiop, and they again in ours i'll the same
way.
Black and white sleeping in the same bed
That is what Boutwell, did not dare to say
he was in favor Of.

NoEToS's NEw-PARTY MOVEMENT " ash
ington dispatch, May 30, to the New York
Graphic The new-party movement IS At
length fairly under way. Some nineteen west
crn members of Congress have recently
adopted platform which they propose rs the
nucleus of new party organization. Inns
platform runs somewhat As follows:
~ \ call for constitutional convention
70 tfIrct several changes in the fundamental
laws of the United States, among which will
he {n) the election of President, Eice.Presl-
dent and senators directly by the people;
0) subordinatinS all corporations to the Ma
tioual Government; (c) diSallowing special
privileges TO any corporation; (D adding
largely to the authority of the General Gov
eminent in matters affecting the tranSpora.
ton and trades Of the country; (e) and
making such banking provisions as will al
low the General Government TO institute
banks under its own authority.
ca An immediate agitation for commit
ting Congress and the nation at once TO the
carrying out of the scheme of the five great
artificial water routes recommended by the
Transportation Committee of the Senate
that is, the opening OF the mouths of the
Mississippi. the connection of the Mississippi
with the lakes, the ship canal around Mag
ara, the enlargement of the Erie canal and
the joining Of the James river with the
waters of the Ohio by canal.
(3.) The construction of at least two direct
| freight railways under the authority Of the
General Government, SO as to regulate the
charges of the main lines Of the country.
With regard TO the currency question, the
majority of those who attend are in favor OF
initiation but as yet it is not made cardi-
nal doctrine of the new party. They will
await the course of events.
| The new combinations are made without
reference to old party lines; and it is stated
that no less distinguished Il politician than
Senator Morton will be its leader. The
movement has the countenance, it is said, o.
Logan; but the bulk Of its adherents are
members of the House.

Cormick is proprietor and Professor Cation
editor. On Monday J. II. Trowbridge, one
of the originnl owners OF the paper, made a
friendly call, when Mccormick instructed
subordinate to order Trowbridge out OF the
Office and tell him to stay out. Trowbrldge
favored Swing during the recent trial, and
this accounts for McCormick's action.

FATAL ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS DEATH OF fOUSG
LADY.
FIScAsTLE, Va, June 8, 1874.
Miss Kate Luster, aged eighteen years, land
daughter OF E. B. Luster, of this place, met
with fatal accident at Mill creek yesterday.
She was visiting her relatives in the country,
and while riding out in company with an
ether young lady her horse became unman-
ageable, she was thrown of, and almost in
stantly killed, her neck having been broken
in the fall. Her horse ran for some distance,
dragging her body over macadamized road,
horribly cutting and dis6guring her head and
face. She died before medical assistance
reached her. Her body was brought to this
place, and will be inferred this afternoon.
Miss Luster was universally beloved by all
who knew her, aad her sad death has cast 4
gloom over our entire community. Her
family have the heartfelt sympathy of every
one here in their deep distress. ZI0.

SENATOR BRowNLow ON THE CIVIL. RIdHTs
R,t1.-The Knoxville Herald publishesia
second let,er-ths is dated June 1st-from
Mr.. BRowSLow against the ciSil.rights Dill.
1t scores Yankee preacher named BART
LETT who favors the bill. We glVe-an ex-
tract or two from BRowNLow's letter:
Yes! Mr.. Bartlett. you can rally tue MIS-
cegepation brigade and the white dodglns
politicians who agree with you that the poor
white people have no rights, and Will meet
you with tue honest laborers and poor men
whose rights are outraged and trampied
upon by this abomination. -,
The .passage of this civil-rights Dill VIII
DESTROY the free schools rs it ought to 90, Tor
it Is better to have no schools ut all than slcn
as arc arbitrarily dictated under this Dill.
The mere threat to pass 1t is the greatest in
suit and outrage which has ever been at
tempted upon the honest, hard-working
people OF small property, or no property at
all.
I do not believe that the personal freedom
of all the white people of the South, and all
their rights of self-government, should be
sacrificed to accommodate few thousand
insolent negroes, or to crafty the caprlces OF
ncgro.worshippng white men anu selhsn
politicians.
The thousands of women in every South
ern State, who, though the widows OF reo-
els, are in no way responsible for the war,
are told, "Your children shall not 60 10
.chool unless you are subjected to the hui
| initiation of seeing them educated with the
children of your former slaves" The man
hood of the country ought to rise up against
| the petty persecution.
The mixed.schooI bill might appropriately
be termed, "a bill for the encouragement
of riot and chaos in the Southern States, ana
for the humiliation of the widows ana the
oppression of the orphans OF the South"
