Fares TO TIE CENTENNIAL.-ln report
ing yesterday an interview with Major
Mccoy. We omitted an important item.
to which he directed our attention. We
alluds to the question of fares by the
railroads to the Centennial. He informs
us that the Commission had information
during its recent session, that pretty
much all of the roads in the East had
signified willingness to transport WIS.,
itors to and from the exhibition at half
the usual rates. He is of the opinion,
from all he could learn, that the Union
Pacific will make a similar liberal re-
duc.ion. The Central Pacific, which is
of greatest concern to Pacific Coasters.
has not vet indicated its purpose in the
premises. Major Mccoy is, however,
hopeful that both the Central Pacific and
Union Pacific will issue excursion tickets
of six months duration at half the usual
rates. Neither would lose money by 1t.
as the through business wonld unques-
tionably be more than doubled by such
a course They would also make friends
and overcome much of the popular preju-
dice now existing against them by fol-
lowing the liberal policy here indicated.
There is, of course, time enough yet to
talk about this matter of so much i'm
portance to the people west of the Rocky
Mountains. but the press cannot begin
10 call attention to the subject any too
soon.-Ereka Sentinel.
The Majors suggestion is first rate
one. Certainly all institutions which
owe as much to the Government as the
Pacific Railroads should show a willing
ness to help the public along when the
Centennial is in order.

.BuxKsa HILL DAT WAS big thing in
Boston and there-avsy. Says the press
dispatch: At the celebration to-day the
first marked feature of interest Was the
review, by Governor CASTOR. Of the en-
tire body Of militia. Major General B.
F. Butler commanded the review. The
State troops were we'll received. but the
genuine enthusiasm was reserved for the
visiting soldiery. especially the Phila-
dslphia Regiment. the New York
Seventh. Maryland Fifth and Charleston
Light Infantry. The review lasted over
an hour, and it is estimated that twenty
thousand troops were in line. Among
the guests were members of the Diplo-
matte Corps, Vice President Wilson,
Generals Sherman, Burnside and Hav-
lev, Chief Justices of the Supreme
Court and Governors and congressman
from several States. When the march
for Charleston began, the streets we're
one vast mass Of people. Such sight
has never before been witnessed IN this
city. Crossing Old Bridge into Charles
ton, the procession passed under a
triumphal arch, bearing the honored
names of Prescott. knowlton, Stark and
Pomeroy--the heroes of Bunker Hill. The
exercises at the monument were begun
at very late hour. and were curtailed
to about ono sixth OF the original pro-
eramme. General Charles Davens was
introduced as orator of the day. His
Grafton was confined to graphic
description Of the bate and an eloquent
appeal for the burial of all political
animosities epsendsred during the war.

Hon. T. G. PHELPS, in his speech at
Platt's Hall last evening. met the accusa-
tons of the Bulletin and Chronicle fairly
and squarely, and overthrow them COM
pletely and in detail. Some of the
charges were made out of whole cloth,
without shadow of foundation, while
others consisted of foundation of dis
torted facts, upon which was constructed
a superstructure of premeditated false
hood. Considering the provocation given,
Mr.. Phelps speech was delivered in re-
markably good temper. All this is very
well in a defensive way; but defensive
speeches will not carry a campaign.
However, We presume that Gorham is
engaged in sharpening his rhetorical
meat ak, and will move on the works Of
PixIey and Pickering next Friday night
when, unless We are mistaken in the
man. there will be great Slaughter

Rev. ALBERT A. PRICE, (colored,
of our city, son-in-law of Mr.. GEo
w. Mason, some two or three weeks
since left Gallipolis for Louisville
KY, to attend the conference, and
like Bunyan's pilgrim met with many
difficulties. He is, according to Gin
cinnati papers, said to tell about this
story.
Arriving at that city on the steam
er Ohio, in the night, he went to a
Mrs. Jackson's, who keeps colored
clearinghouse on Broadway. Fail
ing in waking the inmates, he went
to the Crawford House. He made
application for lodging of the night
clerk, Mr.. Buskirk, who refused him
admission and accommodations, after
he had offered to pay for the same.
He then left, and went to the Calf
House, where he was permitted TO
sleep in the bar-room. Mr.. PRICE
went on to Louisville, and upon his
return to Cincinnati swore out affida-
Wits against Frank j. Oakes OF the
Crawford House. and his two clerks,
under the Civil Rights Bill. The
case was heard by United States
Commissioner Hooper. Upon the
trial of the case PRICE swore posi-
lively that Buskirk refused him en-
tertainment, saying the house was
full; that it was between II and l
o'clock in the night when he made
application; that the colored porter
referred him to the clerk when he
asked the former for lodging, and
that he PRICE rendered money.
The defence outswore PRICE. The
colored porter swore that PRICE made
to him, and not to the
clerk. A boarder corroborated the
porter; and the defendants were dis
charged. PRICE left the city before
the Commissioners decision was Civ
en-, and the Cincinnati papers say the
defendants threaten him with per-
Jury.
This case caused considerable talk,
but it really decides nothing of i'm
as it was only question of
iact as to whether PRICE did make
for entertainment or not.
The evidence was that he did not.
