The Negro Character.
[ From DR.. Livingstone's letter u james Cor
Bennett, Jr

From DR.. Livingstone's letter 70 James Gordon
Bennett, Jrl
The whole of my experience in
Central Africa says that the negroes,
not yet spoiled by contact with the
slave trade, are distinguished for
friendiness and good sound sense
Some can be guilty of great wicked
ness, and seem to think little about
it others perform actions as un-
mistakably good no great self-com-
placency, and if one catalogued all
the good deeds or all the bad ones
he came across he might think the
men extremely good or excessively
bad, instead of calling them, like
ourselves, curious compounds of good
and evil. In one point they are re-
markable--they are honest. Even
among the cannibal Manyuema a
slave trader at Bambarre and | had
to send our goats and fowls up to
the Manyuema village to prevent
their being stolen by my friends own
slaves. Another widespread trait
of character is u trusting disposition.
The Central African tribes are the
antipodes to some Of the North
American Indians, and very unlike
many of their own countrymen who
have come into contact with Mo-
hammedans and Portuguese and
Dutch Christians. They at once
perceive the superiority of the
strangers in power of mischief, and
readily listen to and ponder over
friendly advice. After the cruel
massacre of Nyangue-which un-
fortunately witnessed - fourteen
chiefs, whose villages had been des-
troyed and many of them killed, fed
to my house and begged me TO make
peace for them with the Arabs, and
then come over to their side of the
river Lualaba, divide their country
anew, and point out where each
should build new village and Guilt
vate other plantations. The peace
was easily made. for the Arabs had
no excuse for their senseless MUIR
ders, and each blamed the other for
the guilt.

The state authorized the railroad
company to mortgage its property
and franchises, whatever they were
and as they were, with ell the priv
lleges and all the infrmities belong
ing to them. When the mortgages
accepted their mortgage, and pur-
chased the bond secured by it, they
knew they were dealing with COR
poration created by the laws of Wis
consin, and they were bound to take
notice that the constitution of the
state authorized the Legislature to al
ter or absolutely repeal the charter
of the corporation. They were also
bound to take notice that Dy the
general railroad law of the state it is
expressly provided that the purchas-
er of railroad, at mortgage fore
closure sale, shall take the place of
the mortgagor company, enjoy the
same rights, and be subject to the
same liabilities.
If the doctrine contended for by
Mr.. Curtis should prevail, it would
follow that this provision of the con-
stitutlon of Wisconsin had been re-
pealsd by mortgage executed by a
railroad company, and that the mort
gage had not only deprived the COM
pany of its property and franchises
covered by the mortgage, but had
stripped the Legislature of the pow
or conferred upon it and its success
sors forever by the constitution of
the state.
But suppose the Legislature had
not only authorized the company TO
mortgage it's property and franchises,
as it did, but had gone further, as it
did not, and had expressly provided
that, in case the company should
make and execute q mortgage upon
its property and franchises, the char
ter of the company should never be
altered or repeal, Will any lawyer
seriously maintain that such law
wonld be valid? Can the constltu-
ton of Wisconsin be repealed by the
joint action OF the Legislature and
railroad company? Can one Legis-
lature bind its successors not to ex-
ercise power expressly conferred
by the constitution? This doctrine
would permit any railroad company
to evade Legislative control by a
contract (for mortgage is con-
tract), not even made with the state
but with third persons out of the
state. But this proposition deserves
no further consideration. 1t simply
excites astonishment that any law
yer should be willing to advance it.
The fact is that all the corpora
tions of the state, created under this
constitution, hold their franchises
subject to the will of the Legislature.
Men who invest money in railroads
and railroad securities, rely, and
may safely rely, upon the good faith
of the Legislature, and the love of
even-handed justice entertained by
the people. If the provisions of the
law are in any respect unjust to the
companies, which l do not believe,
the next Legislature will modify
them but it will occur TO every one
that it is not the surest method to
secure an impartial reconsideration
of this subject, to insult the state by
defiance of this law. 1t is too late
for any man or any set of men to
claim to be above the law. All must
obey the law while it exists, and the
remedy for law that operates in
juriously is to secure its repeal.

The PEOPLE VS.. THE RAILROADS. -
We learn that Attorney General Sloan
has asked leave to file petition in
the Supreme Court, preliminary to
the commencement of an action
against the Milwaukee & st. Paul
aud the Chicago & Northwestern
Railway companies, for violation Of
the Potter freight and passenger tar
if limitation act. The petition sets
forth the requirements of the act,
that these companies have publicly
declared their intention to disregard
these requirements, and that they
are acting IN open violation of them.
1t therefore prays that the process of
the Court may be issued against
those companies, requiring them to
answer or demur to the complaint
filed in the action, or in their failure
so to do, the judgement of the Court
will be against them and their char
tiers be annulled. The Court made
an order allowing the filing of the
petition and the issuing of summons,
which will doubtless be made return
able on the FIRST day OF the June term

90 Eternal Perdition.


Correspondence of The Chicago Evening Journal
FREEPoRT, ILL.,, May 20, 874-The
temperance mass meeting last night
was the occasion of a side issue
which promises to assume consider
able Importance. The Rev. II. ID.
Jenkins, of the First Presbyterian
Church, of this city, few days since
declined signing the pledge pre-
sented by the ladies of the Temper
ance Union. HIS reasons therefore
were published by him yesterday
in the Freeport Journal. At the
close of the meeting last night, the
Rev. Proctor, of Oregon, H., having
beou called upon 10 pronounce the
benediction, took occasion to refer
to the action of Mr.. Jenkins in the
following emphatic language: "Any
Christian or minister not assisting
in this cause by his influence and
pledges is not only damned from all
eternity, but damned to ell eternity."
Mr. Jenkins has demanded a public
retraction. Mr.. Proctor expresses
his determination to stand by his
utterances. This afternoon the
friends of the former are canvassing
for tho signatures of witnesses to the
language used by the latter. Unless
public retraction be made the mat
ter will be carried befoie the Free-
port Presby tery, of which both the
reverend gentlemen are members.
There is intense excitement. Mr..
Proctor is we'll known here, and has
many friends. Mr.. jenkins is a
minister of unusual talent, is beloved
by his congregation and held in the
highest esteem by the entire COM
munity. SIGMA.

R The beautiful village Batavia IN
this State, recently furnished pleas
ant illustration of what may be done,
in spite Of the dreadful "subjection of
women. VAT public temperance meet
ing held few days previous the mu-
nicipel election, one of the most es-
teemed citizens in the town gallantly
proposed that the ladies organize them
selves into a society, nominate list OF
temperance candidates, and then go
home and ask their husbands to vote
the ticket. this was accordingly done.
Committees of ladies visited every vo-
ter in the city, and had the satisfaction
of seeing their candidates elected by a
very large majority. So far as the in.
cident has a woman's suffrage applica
ton the point is obvious. As long as
he can drive "Dexter," Mr.. Bonner
does not need to sit down and whine

GOODNESS GRACIOUS IA Mrs.

children, three boys and one girl, one

positively that none got away. II

Wellington without asking any odds

PROFITABLE MINING.-Two miners,
both named John Rowe, working on
Crawford, Mills &Co.'s land, at Hazel
Green, struck it big about two weeks
ago, and, within the short space oftwo
weeks, these two men, without help,
took out 10000 pounds of mineral.
They are now raising an average of
5000 pounds per day. At this rate it
will not take them long to make little
