CONDUCT OF CoLoRED PEoPLE.-ln notic-
ing au exhibition in Warrenton the other day,
the Iudex of tina, place says:
I'VE refer to this exhibition not so much to
compliment the troupe as to express aDprooa-
ton of the conduct of our colored citizens 90
the occasion. They did not give any evidence
of disposition to test their claims nnder the
civil rights bill to seats beside white people.
What Is still more commendable in them, they
appear to have 90 inclination to take advantage
of forced contact anywhere.
