Our colored citizens were greately
exercised yesterday by a rumor that
one of their color had committed sui
eide by hanging himself to a lamppost
in front of Chase s. Sons cigar store.
The truth was that two of the party

THR BuRsTED PIPE.-The injury to the
basin main. near the Water Works, Chief
Engineer Ruth inferms us, is not as Sc.
rio is as was at first stated, but only con-
sisted of small leak, which.was repaired
without interfering with the work of the
pumps. He also says that the leak was
not occasioned by running both the
pumps at one time, as that is never
done. The Cornish pump is only lun one
day in the week-generally Thursdays-
while on other days the Worthingten
pump, by working 8 TOT hours per day,
can easily supply the basins with the
necessary quantity of water.

The weekly democratic statesman. [volume] (Austin, Tex.) 1871-1883, 1876-03-02
PiNCHBACk,

If members of the United States Senate
that once illustrious body has been sub
jected by the accession of brutality in
products of War from the North and of
carpet-baggers and blacks from the South,
there would be less hesitation when the
accomplished barber and faro dealer Pinch
back demands seat. There are white men
in the Sen tie infinitely more disreputable
than the yellow Senator from Louisiana, and
we cannot understand why, at this late day
in the history of Radical progress towards
perfectibllity in morals and government,
there is marked hesitation when Pinchback
presents a patent Of nobility devised by
that exceeding great and good man, Cover
nor Kellogg, OF Indiana, now the negio-
chosen chief magistrate of Louisiana.
Pinchback has been standing, hat and GER
tlfcates in hand, through three long, weary
years at the doorway of the Senate. It is
shut violently in his face whenever the days
grow hot and members catch the odors of
Africa. The Radical ma Drisy in the Sen
ate, since Pinchback was sent up by Kellogg,
has been two to one, and at this good hour
the hapless negro sneaks mOdestly about in
the galleries and sends IN notes to listless.
lounging Senators asking the favor of per-
sonal interviews. True, the legislature that
elected Pinchback had no legal existence,
but such facts are not deemed distractions
when the Senate has dealt with white men,
Perjury and party give as perfect titles to
office in modern times as truth and wisdom
in former age, and we cannot understand,
unless the negro as such has lost caste and
the Radical Senate no longer reverences its
black deity, why poor Pinchback is plucked
of pay and patronage.

swedenborsian Doctrine.

Mr.. G. c. Bonney explains the doctrines
Of the New jerusalem Church (Swedenbor-
gian), as follows: ''Jesus Christ is not
only Deity, but the only Deity, holding in
himself the trinity Of Father, Son and Holy
Ghost. Man must repent OF sin, be regene-
rated by the holy spirit and live the new
life OF love to God a.d good 10 the neigh
Dor. The sacred scriptures are inspired,
according to the divine science Of corres-
pondences between natural and spiritual
things.' Swedenb0rg was not prophet,
but he was specially prepared and called by
the Lord Jesus Christ to witness the fulfill
ment Of the revelation and the execution OF
the last judgment IN the spiritual world, In
the year 1857, and TO declare the second
coming Of the Lord which followed. The
New Church, or Church OF the New Jerusa-
lem, is so named in the twenty first chapter
OF Revelations: IL is not n new sect, but q
new dispensation OF divine truth. Il will
endure forever; all other churches will pass
away. Immediately after death, the soul
rises into the world Of spirits, which is be-
tween heaven and hell, where It is attended
by angels, and, in due time, is judged and
goes 70 its proper society In heaven or in
bell, according 20 the real quality Of lie life
in the world. All infants are saved. The
material body is not raised, but the soul
rises in spiritual body in which il lives
forever"
