COLORED CHILDREN AT SCHOOL.
A Decision That They Must be Ad.
miIGed with the Whites.

A special dispatch to the Philadelphia
Press from Meadville, Pa, May 10, says
"a very important decision was deliver.
ed today by Judge Church, in the Court
of Common Pleas for Crawford county,
in the case of the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania ex rel. Elias H. Allen
against the School Directors of the city
of Meadville. The plaintiff is negro
having children of the proper age to be
admitted to the public school Of that city,
but who were refused admission. The
plaintiff applied for writ of mandamuS
against the directors to compel their
admission. The directors, the re-
spondents. answered that plaintiff s
children were negroes, and that by
section 81, act of Assembly, May 9Th,
1854. the Board of Control having es-
tablished a separate school for negro
and mulatto children in their district
they were not compelled to admit them
into the school where white children
were. The court, Hon. Pearson Church,
presiding Judge, in very elaborate and
learned opinion, held that the 21st sec
ton of the act of 1854 was violative of
the thirteenth and fourteenth amend
ments of the United States Constitution.
and hence unconstitutional and void. A
peremptory Inandamus was ordered to
be issued, requiring and commanding
the respondents to admit the minor
children of plaintiff into the schools.
This is the first case of the kind decided
in the State having involved the main

INDIAN OUTBREAK IN NICARA.
qua.
A Town Attacked-GalIant Defense
by the Young Men.

On the 30th of March about one thou.
sand Indians, armed, some with primi-
tive and others with modern weapons,
surrounded and attacked the town of
Matagalpa, Nicaragua. The place was
utterly without soldiers or organized
means of defense, and to make the con-
fusion and dismay more complete the
attack was a surprise The authorities,
particularly the Prefect, lost their pres
ence of mind. The few, mostly young
men, who hal armed themselves with
rifles of old and abandoned patterns, but
fortunately serviceable revolvers, saw
their families and property threatened.
They rushed in hastily organized groups,
to the entrances to the city, where the
Indians were already appearing in force,
and gave them such a warm reception
they were glad to retreat to the hills,
leaving a number of their braves dead
on the ground. The defenders suffered
also, several being killed and a number
wounded. The cause of the outbreak
is attributed to some stupid
measures of the Prefect of the
department in requiring forced and
unrecompensed service from the In.
dians, in the construction of the tele-
graph line, and in other works of public
utility. After a display of force was
made by the surrounding districts, and
the troops from Managua and Granada
had arrived, the Indians, afraid that
pursuit would be made and their habita-
tions and properties destroyed, sur
rendered in body, promising to offend
no more, on condition that pardon would
be granted for their rebellious acts.

REFORM IN RUSSIA.
IgnatieR Explains the Czar's Mani
1estO.

ST. PETERSBURG, May 18.-General Igna-
tieff, the successor of General Melikoff, has
addressed circular, dated to-day, to the
Governors of the provinces, explaining the
principles Of the Imperial manifesto, and
announcing the views of the government
on the internal condition of the country
1t refers to the dark sides Of the
present state of! society, the irreligious
education OF youth. the inactivity Of the
authorities, the differences OF many holders
of public offices, the general welfare and
their avaricious management Of the public
property" Herein, 1t says, 'is to be
found the explanation of the
painful fact that the great re-
forms introduced by the last government
did not yield the full benefit that the de-
ceased Emperor had right to expect. None
but an autocrat, strong in the attachment
and unbOunded love of great people, can
ever awaken the cooperation of the best
sons of the Fatherland to successfully re-
move the great evil from which Russia is
suffering.
The first task to be achieved Is the extir-
patton OF the spirit of rebellion, which So
ciety must counteract of It's own initiative.
The persecution of Jews on the Ukraine
shows how completely the people yield to
the influence OF evil disposed persons and
unexpectingly serve their rebellious plans.
The second task is to strengthen the
Faith and morals. The government will
take especial care to introduce order and
Justice into the institutions created by the
late Gar. II there be cordial co oopera-
tion between society and the govern
ment the present difficulties will
soon disappear. The nobility, who
always listen to the voice Of
truth and honor. will substantially contri-
butte to that result. The nobility and all
other classes just have the certainty that all
their rights viii remain untouched. The
peasantry may be sure that the government
will not only maintain all the rights accorded
to them, but that 1t will relieve the people as
much as possible of the burden OF taxation,
in order to improve their material condition.
At the same time the government will take
measures to establish a system Tor securing
the participation of the local forces In the
execution of the EmDeror's plan.

boy. The Captain was always under

Before he had recovered from

He was then tied to the mast, his hair
was tarred and one half of his body
painted black. He was then dubbed

tortures, but at last arrived here and was

LIEUT.. CHERRY's MURDER.
shot by one of His own Escort.

Later intelligence in regard to the
killing of Lieut.. Samuel A. Cherry,
Fifth United States Cavalry, represents
that he was killed by one of his own
escort. 1t seems that Lieut. Cherry had
been sent out in charge of detachment
in pursuit of Charles johnson and three
other deserters from the regiment, who
had run off with a lot of government
horses. About ten o'clock on the second
day Lieut.. Cherry, who had divided
his party, detaining three soldiers
with him, saw men at distance on the
bluff. While riding along with Sergeant
Harrington on his right hand and Thos.
Locke and James Conroy in the rear, a
shot was fired from behind them. The
Lieutenant at once turned to the left in
his saddle, asking what it meant. Locke,
with his pistol in his hand, and within a
few yards, pretended that it had gone
off accidentally, and Immediately
shot Lieutenant Cherry through the
heart, death being instantaneous, or near
ly so. Locke then turned and fired on
Conroy. at whom it appeared he fired his
first shot. Conroy was wounded and
knocked from his saddle. Harrington,
according to his own statement, seeing
his officer shot down and strange men
rapi, ly advancing upon them, believed
that Lieut. Cherry and himself were be-
trayed by the other two soldiers and that
the men advancing were the desperadoes,
he at once fled, and after riding down
his own horse and Lieut.. Cherry's, which
followed him, reached the post in safety.
