CHARLES LEHMAN, Clerk of the
Circuit Court of Warren, under instruc-
tions of Judge Cowan, has been indicted
for issuing false county certificates. The
Judge made an order ousting him from
office. The order was disobeyed and
Lehman was jailed. Through one of
his counsel, J. M. Gibson Jr., he has APP
piled to Chief Justice Campbell for a
writ Of Habeas Corpus. The writ has
been granted, triable before Judge
Cowan. Presumably the Judge will re-
fuse to order the discharge of the pris-
oner. If 50, an appeal will be taken to
the Supreme Court, and as the case is a
privileged one, an early decision may be

THE DEATH OF Col. WILLIAM M.
BROWNE, President Of the A. & NJ. Col
lege of Georgia, has awakened sorrowin
many hearts. He was manly, warm
hearted, generous gentleman, whose life
had been chequered, and somewhat re-
markable. He was foreign-born; an
Irishman who came to this country and
embarked in editorial life on the New
York Journal of Commerce, when thirty
years of age. Soon thereafter he be-
came the editor Of the Constitution, the
organ of the Buchanan Administration.
When the sectional trouble came on, he
Joined the South, and attached himself
to the personal and political fortunes of
President Davis, and was appointed a
member of his military family. After
the war, he remained in the South, and
conducted an Agricultural journal for a
time. His generous nature, fine talents
and SNOWY qualities won influential
friends for him, and he was assigned the
prominent position he held when cut
down in the meridian of his useful life.

TUE Chicago Journal Gays that it is
said that General Brady, the star mail

prominent Congressman. Brady says he
has in his possession facts that will
make other hearts ache when they are

is to encourage an interference on the

COMMENTING ON the refusal of the
pupils Of public coIored school in New
York to permit it to bo taught, even
temporarily, by . white teacher during
the illness Of their colovod teacher, the
Sun says;
at is becoming more evident that the
negroes no more care for association with
the whites, except for business purposes,
than the whites care for their company.
That desire to maintain their separate
class existence is 40 strongly manifested
Mt the South that Il recent Southern
medical writer, who has given great at
tcntion to the study of vital statistics,
has prophesied that the mulattoes will
almost wholly disappear within COM
paratively short period. 1t is very re-
markabc and very suggestive that the
overthrow of slavery and the enfran-
chisement of the negroes have apparent
ly had the effect to make more decided
the color line between the whites and
the blacks"
The Sun says that the same rcpugnance
which is exhibited in the South to the
social intermingling of the races, pre-
dominates in the North, and is likely to
be perpctuated. Undoubtedly the way
to preserve harmony, is to follow the in
destructible lines which are drawn by
the hand Of the Creator

The Philadelphia Record says that
the neglect of the whole party of "visit-

in the interest Of Hayes in 1867 to
attend the funeral of Eliza Pinkston,
who died in Canton, showed that they
were ungrateful and that eulogies on the
deceased should have been pronounced
by Senator Sherman, Secretary Chand-
Ter and Stanley Matthews. Hayes him
self ought to have been the Pecksniff of
the performance.
