Republican papers harp upon Southern re-
pudiation but the most shameless repudiator
among the States is Minnesota, which boosted
a Republican majority OF 10000 at the election
of 1876, and rolled up Republican majority
of SO on joint ballot at the last election. Moth
ing in the history Of American finances is so
disgraceful as the reputation OF Minnesota.

THE Louisville Commercial relates the fol-
lowing on the authority of "a gentleman just
back from Mississippi:"
A merchant in jackson was explaining to
an old colored man, that it was very unwise
for him to 90 to Kansas, because it was a
bleak cold country, and the winters entirely
too severe for a tropical race. MARS Jone, -
asked the old fellow, "ain't dis Kansas dey
are talkin' about what dey used to cal
'Bleedin Kansas The merchant of course,
said ii was ''Well den" said the old uncle.
wasn't you white folks ightin' once because
you wanted to take us niggers to Kansas when
We was yo' property? reckon faint no colder
for Us now dan when we was property"
WE are glad to note that our able Repre-
sentative Hon. c. f. Hooker, has again intro
duced his bill Tor a Government Building in
Jackson. Our community are alive with
expectations that it will pass. If the amount
asked for should be appropriated, it would at
once arouse new life in our midst, and prove
a deserved blessing to the hard working me
chanics of the city. Jackson, or rather the
government, is entitled to such Il building for
the despatch of its business in the revenue
judiciary and postal branches Of the public
service There is no reason by the measure
should not become a law The Government
is amply able to undertake the work without
involving itself in any way. Millions of dol
lars have been recently appropriated to less
worthy objects.

In December, 1866, when the Dickson House
was destroyed by fre-the first fire in this
city Of any importance after the war-the col
ored citizens took such an active part, and
did such faithful service that Mr.. Thos Green
then president Of Jackson No. /, and = num-
Der OF other prominent firemen, suggested to
the leading colored men to organize Hook
and Ladder Company. The movement, how
ever, fell through. At subsequent fires the
men who afterwards organized the Com
pany, OF which We write, did faithful work
with Jackson No. /, and Gem No. ,,
and again were advised to organize a
Company of their own. Finally meeting
was called by prominent colored citizens for
that purpose which was held in Angeles
Hall January 14th, 1870. There was so much
interest felt in the movement by the white
firemen that at the meeting, fully one-third Of
those present were OF that class. Starting
out under such favorable circumstances, the
Company has prospered and grown in public
favor and appreciation with each succeeding
year OF its life.

Night scenes i'm the House,

Notwithstanding the partisan feeling which
pervaded both sides OF the House on the various
matters that came up during last night Ses-
sion, there was remarkable absence OF per-
sonal antmosity On the part Of members to-
ward their political opponents. Conger, OF
Michigan was the most active and Irritating
OF the al lg0niStS against whose attacks the
democrats were all the time called upon to de-
1eIG themselves. But he and Springer OF Hi
DcS, whom he seemed specially intent on an
D0yfng, were, whenever they met in the aiSIes
orwhen they acted as tellers together, in as amt
cabie and pleasant a mood as ii no singing sar-
cdSInS ever passed between them. It was the
same with Atkins and Foster. With SOuthard
and Garfield, and with all the other mutually
noStile elements. On one occasion when Springer
