COMMISSIONER IN REFER

ROOMS.

TRENTON, N. j., March 26-Noon.
The proprietor OF a billiard saloon
IL this city has been arrested for re-
fusing to allow negroes to play. The
=. S Commissioner discharged the
prisoner and dismissed the complaint
The Commissioner says: 1T Is true
the public may visit billiard saloon,
also they may go to a store, but every
one caunOt play there as every one
cannot buy III certain stores. The
store-keeper may suit his customers.
Every place which is accessible to all
is not necessarily a place of public
amusement. To say everybody can
60 to billiard saloon does not deter
NINE it's character; nor does the fact
that license is required make it
d place of public amusement. A license
is taken out for peddler's wagon, but
1t does not thereby become place of
public amusement, There is nothing
i'll the license idea only by which we can
determine the true ,,ature of the place.
A licensed place may still be 80 regu-
| lated as practically to exclude the
public It is asked, What IL II billiard
saloon, If not a place of amusement !?
] answer, at best and only in limited
sense, or in qualified manner, cal it
be called plnc" # puEc amusement
1t ie the private business If a private
party conducted as it suits the keeper
1t is no more II place Of public amnse-
mtnt than a drinking saloon. Evi-
d,Itly into the latter no man has {:
right to go and tuke drink without
leave of the proprietor. The applicant
may be refused and driven away fol

EHE VACAN JUDGESHIP IN

WASHINGTON. March 25-Noon.-
Marshal Packard, Judge Pardee and
Col Fish visited the President to-day
regarding his power to appoint Pardee
or any one else as District Judge OF
Louisiana. Tho President still has
his power under advisement but the
foregone conclusion is that the bench
will be vacant until the convention Of
next Congress. 1t seems to have been
the determination of the Senate to
send there person VINO had no local
affiliations. At the latest hour ex-Sen-
ator Pratt. of Indiana, was suggested
the President by the Judiciary Com
mittee. By the usual courtesy to ex
Senators his name would have coufe
up for immediate action without ref
erence to the Committee and the Pres
ident was assured of Pratte cOnfiraa-
ton but he adhered to Pardee, whose
name went on the table. This action
involves no personal disparagement
to Pardee but carries out the theory
of the Republican Senators that an en-
tire stranger should occupy the bench
WASHINGTON, March 25-Night-
Maj Cox, Paymaster, has been as
signed to San Antonio, Texas.
The Senate failed to confirm Mayna-
der, and Bueneman has been nomi-
mated by the President as Paymaster
1t is questioned whether the President

The County Site of Fender.

EDITORS JOURNAL. Having been ap-
preached frequently hy different cif:-
zens of the county of Fender, as to
Ashton for a county site, aud what We
would DO for the county if it should be
decided to locate it there, &C., &C., W.
wish to say the following to the ci;i
zens of Fender county
Ashton is located on the Whining
ton & Weldon railroad, 173 miles froln
Wilmington, nearly equi-distant from
Rocky Point and Burgaw. Two o1
three hundred yards from the railroad
at Ashton. a beautiful ridge Or hill
Commences, which reaches about three
fourths of mile unbroken III any d.
rection. There is as good or better
water there than we have seen at any
other point South Of Goldsboro on the
line CT the railroad
We propose to offer the following
Inducements for "Ashton" as Ii e
site.
Lay off tract or pa1c eel of land in
body OF thirty acres, set apart lot for
each Of the public buildings. Give Ole
acre each to the several religious de-
nominations, both white and colored
Lay Oft the remainder into lots and
give every alternate lot 10 the County
Commissioners for the county. w,
will also, if Ashton should be selected
TOR the county site, build a house for
the holding of the Courts, until til.
Commissioners should see fit to build
the public buildings, without any cost
or expense to the county. The Raj
road Company owns large tract of
well timbered land adjacent to Ash
ton, which could and would mutually
benefit both the railroad and the
county.
There are already public roadsbeine
built from Bannermau's BRYCE direct.
and almost in a straight line to Ash
ton, and from the Long Creek" road
to Ashton, making u easily acce ssible
from every point-it being only three
fourths Of mile from the Duplin and
Wilmington road. The title to this
land is good, and can be warranted
and defended as there are no inbam-
berances on any of our lands. These
lands are valuable, being in
thoroughly agriculturali country.
Very respectfully,
THos. A. MCLENDoN.
