RICHMOND, November SO.--In the
court to-day, Judges Bond and
Hughes sitting, the Judges announced
that they disagreed in the Petersburg
cases, and would certify them
up to the supreme court of the United
Eight judges and three regis
I election in Petersburg were in
under the enforcement act of
congress, for intimidating and pre-
venting colored men from voting at the
municipal election in May last. The
counsel for the defendants demurred to
acknowledgements and the points raised
were deliberately argued.
The judges differ in but II point,
viz: That none of the indictments
charge thatthe persons prevented from
voting were so prevented on account
of race, color or previous conditions of
servitude. Judge Hughes holds that
the indictments are fatally defective
and thinks this should be made in
order to let in the proof or inference
of the motive. Judge Bond holds
that as the motives of the men cannot
be looked into or proved except by
their acts, it is sufficient to charge that
citizens of the United States were pre-
vented from voting and the motive of
hostility to the race may be inferred
from the act of preventing colored
voters from voting.
The convention Of the American
cheap transportation association will
be held in the Young Mems Christian
association hall. Many delegates have
already arrived and more are coming
on the evening train.

BERLIN, December In the Reich
stag to-day the Alsace-Lorraine loan
bill came up, and gave rise to n most
interesting debate. The deputies from
and Lorraine took occasion, in
a severe discussion, to declare that they
were opposed to a high endowment of
the university ofStrasburg and to other
educational grants for provinces, be-
cause they were made in the interest of
The empire and not of tae provinces
Prince Bismarck replied as follows:
THE question before us concerns the
imperial interest. 1t is not a question
the Alsace and Lorraine University.
It is for imperial purposes. In a well
ought war, in which we defended our
existence, we conquered those prov
noes for the empire. 1t was not for
Alsace and Lorraine that our soldiers
he'd their blood. We take our stand
lpon the imperial interest, for which,
md not for the sake of their own &C.
lesiastical interests, we annexed those
PROVINCES. We have other grounds
or action than those people whose past
eads them to Paris, and whose present
pads to Rome. My own views re-
pecting the creation of an Alsace and
.oaraine parliament, which at first
,ere too sanguine, have been modified
ince / became acquainted with the
of the deputies from those
rovinces. Such a parliament would
.ad to continual agitation, and, per-
APPS, might endanger the peace of the
npire. We shall doubtless be obliged
take still more serious steps in re-
ard to school matters there. We can
