A somewhat remarkable SANDER
suit has just been brought up in the
Court Of Appeals Of Kentucky. It is
one which grew ont of the murder of
Jacob and Betsey, the aged
brother and sister of cold John )"
Harper, the owner of the race-horse
Lonstellow while asleep in their beds
something over year ago. 1t was
charged by Adam Harper, a nephew
Of the murdered couple, that j W.
Harper, his cousin, had intimated in
substance that be (Adam) was the
murderer, and for this he brought suit
for SANDER. The trial created great
excitement in Central Kentucky, and,
from the prominence of John Harper,
the country at large took much inter-
est In it's progress. The council for
the defendant rather pleaded justifca-
ton in his behalf, and finally got
judgment for their client. The plain
tiff was dissatisfied with the result,
and has now taken the case to the
court of last resort. M
Miss Annie Gilmore, the sisser Of
the great baton swinger and jubilee
singer, who was few days since
married to Captain John O'Rourke. n
Milwaukee, has settled down with her
husband in Plattsmouth, Neb.

CIVIL RIGHTS BILL.

The Civil Rights bill passed the
House of Representatives last week
and now goes to the Senate. The
bill as passed is modification of the
well known Simmer bill and in its
present shape will undoubtedly be en-
tirely acceptable to the Southern
blacks, and ought to be unobjec-
tionable to their political opponents
The bill dees not confer any mole right.
On the colsred people than both hu.
manity and justice would dictate.
The Democrats have ever claimed to
be in favor of giving teaual
rights to ALL" but the desperate man
ner in which they opposed this civil
Rights Bill, which called for
"equal rights" to the black race,
rather gives the lie to this claim.

CURRENT TOPICS AT THE CAPITAL
PROTECTING CONGRESSIONAL WITNESSES FROM
ARREST
WASHINGTON, Friday, Jan. 70, 1875.

WASHINGTON, Friday. Jan. "a, 1875
The special House Committee on Privileges is
unanimously IN favor of reporting bill to protect
from arrest or annoyance in connection with civil
suits all witnesses summoned to Washing gton to give
testimony by order of either House. As to how far
this protection should be extended to witnesses
against whom criminal proceedings have begun, the
Committee find more difficulty in determining. The
majority are evidently of the opinion that no wit
ness brought here by order Of either House should
be subject to arrest criminal suit except in such
cases as those in which the Governor of one State
would be required to issue requsition the Gov
ernor of another, for the surrender of q person
guilty Of violating its laws. The importance of this
question is so great that the Committee desired TO
give it further consideration, and therefore ad-

The Conservatives offer to show that the late cleo

morning that two-tbrds of the negroes killed in
Louisiana have been killed by negroes, and that
two.thirds of the remainder have been killed by
white men while in the act Of committing or
attempting some horrible outrage murder, rape,
arson, burglary etc. The immunity attend
ing these murders is directly owing to the
criminal indifference of the reckless and
indiscriminate employment of executive clemency
They are getting up statistics IN the

records in as evidence. The Conservatives propose
bringing witnesses who were not before the other
