CoLoRED MEN IN CONGRESS. The day
of colored representatives in Congress is
numbered. 1t has been n matter of very
general remark that there are but three
colored members in the present House
Cain, Rainey and Smalls, of South Carolina,
all Of whose seats are contested by white
men. In the last House there were seven
colored members, and in the Congress before
'ethae- 'rftorc:-- II i~-the general impression
that hereafter, unless colored members are
elected in the Northern States, none will
ever again be seen in Congress. AS the
three in the present Congress have only
been admitted on primd .fdcic cases, on GER
tihcatcs manipulated by the notorious Cham
bcrain and Cardozo, cooked up by the frau
dulent returning board of South Carolina,
it would not be ut all strange that the House
Elections Committee, after consideration
of their cases, should give their seats to the
contestants in each instance The colored
Congressman has been a very decided fail.
ure. Elliott, of South Caroliua, was the
most prominent one that ever held scat
His speeches were remarkably good, and ii
was generally believed that they were pre-,
pared for him by Ben. Butler. Smalls
who now represents South Carolina con
stituency, has just emerged from Jail, where
he was aan6ncd for frauds in that State
If the juries of that State do their dut,
they will have him in the penitentiary be-
fore long. Southern States will not elect
any more colored Congressman, as even the
negroes are opposed to thcm.-Harttorc

THE TRUTH MUST RE TOLD.

The truth must be told without reserve
and restitution must be made whenever
practicable Otherwise, an indulgent public
Will demand inexorably that nc immunity
shall be promised o. allowed, and is danger.
Gus ground to tread upon, if there is the
slightest disposition to make distinctions
among white or black, Democrats or Repub.
hcans:~ The investigation has bsen ed due
ted in such manner as to elicit tho appro-'
val of nine-tenths of our population, and
we do not believe that there is any thought
of shielding the guilty But the leniency
and forbcarance already exercised towards
the lesser criminals should not be misinter-
prctcd, for 1t is evident that the purpose
which dictates such course is not compati.
bio with unseemly discriminatons~,.
The obstinacy of few will cndsbger the
continuance of this policy towards others,
and the safest conclusion for all is to make
Il clean breast of it, while there is given an
oppoI tunity to do so. Although IT will not
accomplish any public purpose, as we have
said in former article, to secure the con-
viction of large numbers of the petty;
thieves, yet there are abundant chances to
utilize convict labor in this State, and the
addition of several score of criminals will
not inconyenience the authorities in charge
Of the penal institutions or initiate serious
ly against the welfare of the State. The
bottom facts must be obtained, and every
one connected with the jobbing and robbery
Of the past must contribute his share to the
general stock of information which has been
needed TO secure the conviction Of the prin-
cipals. Evasion and silence will not answer,
and whenever one of the patry crew at
tempts to shrink his share of responsibility
there is only one course to be pursued,
which is to push them to the wall through
the medium of other testimony at hand or
easily procured. An example of this kind
has already been made, and repetition Of
such conduct ought to meet with prompt
and similar action in every instance. For
tunatcly, the work cannot be baked by any
combination of recalcitrant participants for
the evidence is not wantng to reach the
greatest criminals of the reconstruction era.

FOND or THE FAMILY.-Claibornc +.
Jackson, Il native Of Kentucky. was once
Governor Of the State of Missouri. He
joined the Southern Contedcracy, and died
during his term at Il farm house opposite
the City of Little Rock among strangers,
with no kind hand of affection near to
soothc his pain and rob his death bed of
half its anguish. The most remarkable fact
connected with the history of his life is
perhaps the statement that he marricd five
sisters in one of the most respectable, veal
thy and distinguished families in the State;
that as soon rs one wife would Ic he would
go and marry her sister, in reasonable time,
of course. Some of them were widows
when he married thcm. In connection with
the marriages there was Il standing joke told
at the expense Of the Governor, which was
that when he went to ask the old gentleman :
consent to marry the last one, the venerable
father is reported to have said: Yes, Claib.
