MIR. EDIToR:-Thc colorcl orator, Mr.
Clifford, thus enlightened his hearers in this
town on Monday night last, respecting the
vote of Senator McCuloh on the bin pro
viding an appropriation for colorccl schools
in the State
In Tie last session of the Legislature OF
this State, said he, Mr.. McCuloh, by his
vote on the State School funds, reduced the
school fund from one hundred thousand do
lars ID fifty thousand dollars, thereby cut
ting off the length of time that your school
should be kept open. This clearly shows,
said he, that ii the Democracy get into pow
er fully your schools will be entirely closed
The truth is, Senator MCCulloh, in com
mon with every member of his party
in the Senate voted to increase the
appropriation from $4,000 (what it
had been the two years prcyious) to $780,
GOO per annum, thus doubling. tie
amount Moreover, the first appropriation
of a fixed sum for the support of their
schools was made by the Legislature of
1872 being then thoroug lily democratic,
the republican Legislature of 1865 having
appropriated for their benefit only such an
amount as should be collected as taxes
from the property owned by colorcd poo

ment:
The case of David II. Welsh, who APP
pealed from the decision of Adam Kali

right of party TO vote in any election dis
trict in the county provided he has been in

fused to register him because he had not
been in the election district six months.
