CIVIL RIGHTS.

WHITE MAN ELECTED FROM A HOUSE ON Ac-
COUNT OF coLoR-sUIT TO ENFORCE THE
FIFTEENTH AMENDMENT.
WASHINGTON, D. c., July Q, 1875.
suit was entered yesterday against one Henry
Smith, who keeps lodging house, by a white man
for eJecting him from his house on account of his
color, contrary to the Fifteenth amendment OF the
constitution OF the United States. The facts IN
the case are these A room had been rented to
the white gentleman in the absence OF the land
lord by his mother. Upon his return he
closed the doors upon the white man wi b the
frank avowal that he would accommodate no
white person. Justice Sampson issued warrant
for the arrest of the landlord. A great deal OF
interest Is manifested by the col0red men IN this
city, q majority or the barber shops IN this city
invariably refuse to shave colOreG men, and this,
IL is hoped by them, may serve as precedent IN
succeeding suits.

OUR SUMMER GARDENS.

To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD:-
Can we not have one place OF amusement free
from the imposition OF ticket spectators. The
Gilmore Concert Garden is a real acquisition to
the public, and every disposition is shown to
patronize it literally; BUTT is very exasperating
10 be told OF the ticket once on entering that
"she box es are ali sold,n and then to find on the
sidewalk two or three burly SPECTATORS with
hands aud pockets filed with box tickets, for
which they demand dollar above the regular
price. 1t Is a recognized fact that at many OF the
theatres this style OF business Is carried on for the
benefit OF The PROJECTORS themselves. Tins Is
utterly disgraceful, and 1t is scarcely less so II
the proprietors permit their BEST accommoda-
tons TO be monopOlized by the spectators TO
