fsE OWL RIGHTS DECISION.
Register Bruce, Frederick Douglass aud
other Coiorcd Ciusens Much DIS
appointed,

The decision Of the supreme court de.
claring tho civil rights act OF 1870 an
unconstitutional invasion OF tho rights OF
states is tho subject of much comment at
Washington, u. &. Several OF the most
prominent colorcd mep Of tho District
have been interviewed aud havo given
their opinions rs to the moral effect 70 tho
decision. Naturally the majority ot them
express regret that the supreme court has
rendered such decision and arc inclined
to regard it as an obstacle to the progress
Of the oolored race. Mr.. Bruce, c. senator
from Mississippi and prescu, reg ster OF
the treasury, declares 1t most "dtortun'
ate decision and one that will carry the
country backward fifteen years ut least
also that 1t does not reflect the sentiment
of the people of the United States and IS
a revival'of the theory of states rights.
Fred Douglass says that the decision
puts the colored people again outside OF
the law and places them, when on steam
boat or railroad or in n theatre, restaurant
or other public place, at tho mercy Of any
white ruftilu who may choose 10 insult
them. Professor Greencr says that in
view of this decision oycry colorod man
with any self respect must continue to
demand the fullest protection OF the law,
both rs a man and rs an American citizen,
and that he does not think tho civilization
of the age can be turned back, even by
the supreme court Of the United States.
At conference OF c1lOrGd people Of the
district it was decided t. hold u meeting
Monday night to express the sentiment oil
the colOred race with respect to tho deci-
sion and to consider what course to pursue
in view OF that decision. Among those
who are to address the meeting arc several
prominent white lawyers and clergy
and such colored speakers as Fred Dou'
glass and Professor Gregory.

WOman's Work

1t is q right and noble instinct that
makes every true man feel that he must
and ought to be the bread winner for his
family. Nevertheless no man objects but
rather prides himself on the fact IL he has
an industrious, capable wife. If SO, tho
question simply becomes choice of work
A man who goes off to his work In the
morning to remain away till noon, and
then till night, has no reason for feeling
happier IL he knows that his wife in his
absence is doing some hard household
work in order to save some money rather
than some easy special work for which
she receive money in return. .-Hsllea Star

A Worthy Enterprise.

The charity under the charge of the
order of st. Francis recommends itself
to the cordial support of this community.
The simple purpose is to take charge of
the sick, who may offer themselves at
the hospital. Anyone who is i'll will be
received without fee or reward al
though as it is designed to be hospital,
and not home, it offers only temporary
refuge. Those suffering with contagious
diseases will be attended at their homes,
but will not be received into the hospital.
While no compensation is demanded
contributions are solicited for the sup
port of the charity and, OF course, all
who can afford it will be expected to
pay for the accommodations they get.
This charity Is Of course one that the
county is supposed to meet in its hospi'
tai. But it is not fully met. We prJba'
bly, have as good hospital in Lancaster
county as anywhere in the state ; and II
all hospitals were as good they would
bs very beneficent creations. Our hos
pital is good institution but the st
Francis hospital under the mniStration
of the sisters of that order is likely to
offer more grateful harbor to the af
flcted. There is ample room for botl
hospitals in our midst and certainly NJ
charity can be more worthy of encour
agement than that which offers shelter
support and nursing to the sick.
1t is a charity even to the rich to OifeI
them such benefaction for there il
nothing harder to get than skllful ant
devoted nurse in sickness. One thing
that is very much wanted in this com
munity is training school for nurses
such as are common in New England
where nursing is a profitable profession
to men and women who have been edu
Gated for their business in schools. 1t j
very surprising that good nurses shoul,
be so few here where they are in grea
demand. The law Of supply and dc
mand ought to furnish what is so mucI
wanted. Probably the establishment o
this branch of the st. Francis societ
here may meet the want, though we d
not know that 1t is the intention to sen
nurses into private families when dC
sired. That probably is not part c
the design, though it might be made sc
we should think, proatably to the no!
pital charity and to the citizens.

Tho Into rInnting ofTree.

Germantown Telegraph.
A correspondent asks whether trees,
fruit or ornamental, can be tTansplanted
any time in November. Our answer. in
brief, is that they can be transplauted ia
November or December with perfect safety
it done properly or we may say any time
during the winter when there is no frost
in the ground, care beug taken to hill up
tho earth from six to ten inches
around the stem so as TO turn oil
the surplus water which might
otherwise damage It. Large trees
can be tTansplanted from one place
to another with moro certainty Of gro wing
lats in the fall, when the frost will admit
of it, than at any other time. In all cases
Of transplanting-it may not be out of
place 90 mention here-be sure TO retain,
in digging up trees, whether large or
small, the rootlets, and when setting again
spread them and all the others out as
carefully as possible, which will DO fol-
lowing their natural position, aad shovel
among them tina finest soil, aud then
mingle it among the roots with tho hands,
and then firmly press down with the boot
when the hole is filed ~.

THE AUTOMATIC UAK BRAKE.
its Very Succession TuaI Yesterday


At the Penn iron works yesterday in
presence of representatives OF the press
and stockholders of the Rotc automatic
brake company, practical test of the
workings of the brake were made on a
full sized gondola car. A description OF
the brake and the admirable working of q
small sized model of it was printed in the
lNTEILIGENCER some time ago. The test
yesterday was even more satisfactory.
The inventor, Mr.. g. Y. Rote, expects TO
lave the car with brake attached, placed
upon the road in about eight days when its
adaptablity 10 the work 1t is expected TO
perform will bs moro fully shown. 1t is
perfectly automatic, locks and unlocks the
brakes without the aid OF brakemeu :;
works equally we'll whether the train is
going forwards or backwards is at all
times under complete control of the engi-
neer, though, unlike the ordinary air brake,
it is entirely disconnected from the engine
the brake on each car being entirely
independent of those on other cars in the
Same train thus, II an accident should
happen to any one OF the brakes mono Of
the others would be affected by it. Mr..
Rote feels confident Of his ability to take
a train Of loaded freight cars from Phila-
delphia to Pttsburg without the help OF
a single brakeman. Should his expecla
tions bo realized, his invention will reyolu.
tioniza the present system, or rather want
of sytem of handwriting en- railroads.
Tho cost of the new automatic braking
apparatus will be very light, as it can be
readily applied to tho hand brakes now in
common use. Railroad men aud mo
chauics who have thoroughly examined
the pole brake, consider it a very proms
ing invention, aud expect to soc 1t success
full when put in actual use.
