The Value Of Tact.

Frederick Douglass was travelling with
friend Of another color in Q part of the
country where public sentiment was bit
terly hostile to the association Of color.
They stopped at tavern and dined to-
gether, at which spectacle the village,
growing and grumbling about the stove in
the bar room, was Immediately disposed to
mischief. The bar-room philosophers were
sadly troubled for the honor of their color
"What business has a white man to be
travelling and eating With a niger, any
howl If he doesn't know what's decent
we'll teach him."
The crowd was. indeed, very anxious to
give the offender q few summary Lessons N
decency. They were like duelists, who
have q ludicrous conceit that they know
what honor is. Douglass slipped out quiet
ly, and, returning after little while, he
remarked to his companion, in o good
humored way, that he had just seen very
singular sight in the stable; and the crowd
turned to hear what it was. "YOuIl hardly
believe it," said Douglass, addressing his
companion az if there were no OF else in the
room, "but l gave my white mare and your
bay horse four quarts of oats each, and there
they are, eating side by side as quietly
and cOntentedly as if they were of the
same color! lis most extraordinary" He
did not laugh nor wink, but made his re-
mark with a simple sincerity that was ir-
resis table. There was moment Of silence.
Then came the echo. Human wit had
spoken, and g human heart answered.
"What cussed fools We are!' eaid one of the
crowd, tremendously; and loud laugh fol-
lowed, which scattered like burst OF sun
light the gathering cloud OF miechievOus in
tention. A little tact had been a hundred
fold more etiectual in melting prejudice
than a series OF solemn lectures.-Harper S

Rival Miners, Expedients.

The Gold Hill (Nevada) News of May %
says: THE Justice, Woodviile and Rough
and Ready mining companies are mining
very near each other, aud mutually have
adverse claims to certain portions of the
mining ground upon which they are work
ing. The consequence of this conflict of
claims is that each contending party is try
ing to get the better Of the other, and
not Over-scrupulous as, to the means
employed. 1t will be recollected that
only q few months ago four men were
killed in one of the collisions between the
Woodville and Justice Mining companies.
The Rough and Ready Company now comes
in for some of the trouble, having sunk a
shaft which is liable 10 cut into a valuable
ledge before long, and which the Wood
vile Justice folks want themselves. Ac.
cordingly, their workings being the deepest
they raised wirzs through TO connec-
ton with the bottom of the Rough and
Ready shaft, built fire and created
big smoke of birthstone and other
nastiness, which sent up smudge
that no one could work in. The Rough
evil by food of water, and finally sue
ceeded in getting the hole barricaded.
They went to work in the shaft again, but
about noon to day an explosion of giant
powder occurred behind or beneath the
Dulkhead, which wiped it out and blew two
of the Rough AID Ready miners some ten
Or twenty feet up the shaft. They were
not hurt niue b, however, and IS the tub
happened to be lowered about that time,
they concluded to get On board and be
hOisted out. What the next move will be
remains to be seen, but this last was de-
cidedly rather a lively one.

The Dark Ways of the London Small Boy.

The other day rustic individual came
to London BY train to witness the reception
of the Prince of Wales. A man who had
come in the third class carriage with him
admOnished this rustic, when they were
parting just outside the London station,
that he should be very careful of his money,
as many thieves would be in the crowd.
"Oh," said the rustic, "nobOdy'n get my
money; have only FL, and mean to keep it

by one of our small but clever street boys,
who watched his opportunity, and when
the honest countryman had got a few hun.

Making ii Safe for Republicans to


The Chicago Times of the twenty-secOnd
instant says:
1t has been given out from Washington
that President Grant will send troops into
the Southern States if it seems to b. neces-
sary in order to protect Republicans, white
and black, IN the exercise OF their right to
vote in November. 1t is further reported
that he said to Governor Kellogg, of Lou
isiana, that il the regular army was not
strong enough for this purpose be had no
doubt sufficient number Of volunteers
could be had on short notice. Undonb eddy
the President feels free to 60 further in this
direction than he would it ne were himself
q candidate; his motives are less liable to
be misconslrued. II he carries out this
pOlicy-it he makes it really safe for South
ern Republicans to vOte-Hayes and
Wheeler will almost certainly carry Lou
lsiana, Mississippi and Florida, with their
twenty electoral votes; and it is by no
means impossible that they will carry Ala
bama. 1t this programme is carried out.
the Confederate calculation upon united
South will be sadly disarranged. Very
we'll. 1t may Lot be amiss to stretch q
point for the purpose of restraining those
worthless whose damned luck" it is "to run
right against niggers' with shOtguns and
such like persuasive arguments. 1t may be
Well enough to see whether there is no way
to prevent the distrancisement of whole
race by the methods employed in Missis-
sippi and Louisiana. Grant will be rOundly
abused it he carries out this programme,
but the country will probably sustain him.

Pacification of tho South.

Hon. William A. Wheeler, in letter re-
lating to the adjustment of the louisiana
troubles, some months ago. said:
And now, closing word-the result of
nv personal observation in the South We
Of the North delrde ourselves in expecting
that the masses of the South, 60 far behind
US in many of the attributes of enlighte I'D
improvement and civilization, are, in the
brief period of ten or fifteen years, to be
transformed into our model Northern com
munities. That can only come through q
long course of patient waiting, to which no
one can now set certain bounds. There " ill
be good deal of unavoidable friction.
which will call for iorbearance, and which
will have to be relieved by the temperate,
fostering care of the government. One of
the most potent if not indispensable agen-
cies in this direction will be the devising of
some system to aid in the education of the
masses. The fact that there are whole
counties in Louisiana in which there is not
solitary echoolhouse is full of suggestion.
We compelled these people to remain in the
Union. and now duty and interest demand
that We leave no just means untried to make
them good, loyal citizens. How t. diminish
the friction, how to stimulate the elevation
of this portion Of our country, are problems
addressing themselves to our best and wisest
statesmanship. The foundation for these
efforts must be laid in satisfying the South.
ern people that they are to have equal, ex-
act justice accorded to them. Give them,
to the fullest extent, every blessing which
the government confers upon the most fa-
vored-give them no just cause for COM
plant, and then hold them, by every ne
cesssry means, to an exact, rigid observance
of all their duties and obligations under
the constitution and its amendents to &C.
cure to all within their borders manhood
and citizenship, with every right thereto
belonging.

Democratic Trickery Rebuked.

The New York Daily Bulletin, a first-class
commercial organ, with Democratic editors
throughout its staff, yesterday made the
following onslaught upon the Confederate
the soldiers bounty bill by the House yes
terday is most disgraceful piece of politi-
cal trickery. 1t was simply disreputable
attempt to conciliate the soldiers vote at
the expense of the country. What can be
thought of the sincerity of the House in
standing out for reduction Of $45, OOO, 900
in the government expenditures and then
voting to throw away an equal amount as q
party bribe9 1t Is to be hoped the Senate
will have self-respect enough to reject the
proposal, with whatever political corse-
ouences may follow. The House has made
an exhibit of character which, we confess,
we were not prepared to expect"

The New secretary.

Hon. Lot NJ. Morrill,, the new Secretary
of the Treasury, is q man who has achieved
marked success in political lite. He was
born in Belgrade, Maine, in 1915; was edu
Gated at Waterville College, after which
he commenced the practice OF law in Read
field. 1t is somewhat of a coincidence that
Timothy o. Howe, United States Senator
from Wisconsin, lived in the same town,
and was often engaged with young Morrill,
courts and elsewhere. Howe, in 1915, went
to Wisconsin, and Morrill, removed to Au-
gusta, where he has ever since resided. 1t
was in the midst Of the slavery and anti
slavery struggle when Mr.. Morrill, started
in political life. The Wings were in the
majority in Augusta, A. Morrill,, who was
Democrat, was defeated the first time he
ran for office. This was Ia 1852. The next
year, however, be was more successful.
In 1855 he was nominated by the Demo
Gratis on their senatorial ticket, and was
elected. He served in the session
of 1856, and was President Of the Senate.
1t was in this same year that the Republican
party was formed, and Hannibal Hamlin,
US its candidate. was elected Governor of
Maine by 1900 majority. MIR. Morrill,
joined the Republican party, and was
chosen to succeed Governor Hamlin
He was reelected the two succeeding
terms. and in 1861. when Senator
Hamlim was elevated to the vice pres
idency, Mr.. Morrill, was elected to fill the
vacancy. 1t was on this occasion that he
renewed his acquaintance with Senator
Howe, his former tOwnslnan and prOfes.
sional adversary. At the expirs ton Of Mr.
MOrrill's senatorial term in 1868 he was re-
elected for the full term to 4pre in 1862
He served his second term with marked
ability and fairness, his efforts in
behalf OF the cOlored people being
heartily approved of in Maine. His
reelection seemed almost an assured
event, 80 much was his State in harmony
with his services. But rival appeared in
the person of Hannibal Hamlin. Mr.. Ham
Lin was nominated in party caucus and was
of course elected. Upon the death of Sena-
tor William Pitt Fessenden. Governor
Chamberlain appointed Mr.. Morrill, to the
vacancy. On the assembling Of the State
Legislature this appointment was confirmed,
Mr.. Morrill, being elected to fill the unex-
pired term, ending March 30, 1871. He was
then reelected to serve until March 3, 1877.
Secretary Mcr1il, although not very we'll
known in financial circles, is q man of great
intellectual ability, and of undoubted
honesty and integrity. He has been chair
men OF the Senate Committee on Appro-
priatiOns and a member of the Committees
on Naval and Indian Affairs. His appoint
ment is we'll received in Wall street and
elsewhere in this city.-New York Times.

contractors and builders, two of whom are
