The COIOred Convention.

The Colored Convention, which as
sembled at Louisville, Kentucky, last
week, is said to be devoting much Of
its time to buncombe speeches, and IN
this respect very much resembling as
semhlages of white men, as human ma
ture seems to be the same III both ra-
ces. The convention was intended to
De nonpartisan, but politicians made
determined efforts to control it. a res
olution was introduced, declaring that
President Arthur's administration is in
harmony with the principles Of the
grand old Republican party, and pledg-
ing the support Of the Convention to
the administration. This caused the
widest uproar, and brought all the
members to their feet The delegates
from the South aud West Kissed it,
and only few from the North seemed
to favor it, and the Convention appear
ed likely to break up in general row,
when delegate from Louisiana pour
ed oil on the troubled waters by NOV
ing to refer the resolution to the Com
mittee on Resolutions.
The Convention adopted an address
in which qualification is expressed for
the miraculous emancipation of the
race; acknowledgement is made for
laws to secure the colored race in it's
rights; but, while they ask for no more
class legislation, they believe that
many OF the laws to secure them their
rights as citizens are nothing more
than dead letters The address further
states that the colored people regard
labor, education and moral training as
being paramount to all other questions;
that the Government should reimburse
the creditors of the Freedmen's Saw.
lngs Bank; that the distinction between
white and colored troops in the regu-
lar army is un-American, unjust and
ungrateful; that the efforts of Ireland
to gain her rights, receives their ap-
probation and best wishes; that the
chain gang system should be abolish
ed: and that cOlOred men be admitted
to tradesunions and employment in
commercial pursuits.

In 1866 the best railroad time be-
tween New York and New Orleans
was five days. and passenger had to
make nine changes, many of them long
rides from depot to depot. In 1869
the time was reduced to four days; in
1873 to three and half days, and in
lo7Sto three days and only one change.
Now the time has been reduced to
fifty-eight hours.

d RaWle, 447. Dillon, in his valuable
work on municipal corporations, Par
1863, says; There is no such implied
obligation on the part of municipal
corporations, and no such relation be-
tween them and officers which they are
required to elect, as will oblige them
to make compensation to such officers
unless The right to it IS expressly gtren
by law, by ordinance, or by contract,
Officers Of a municipal corporation are
deemed to have accepted their Office
with knowledge of and with reference
to the provisions Of the charter or in
cooperating statute relating 10 the
services which they may be called up
on to render, and the compensation
provided therefor. Aside from these,
or some proper bylaw, there is no I'M
piled assumpsit on the part of the cor
poration with respect to the services
Of its officers. In the absence of ex-
press contract these regulate the right
Of recovery and the amount And in
Par. l72, of the same work, it is said !:
ut is well set led rule that a person
accepting an Office with fixed salary
is bound to perform the duties of the
office for the salary. He cannot legally
claim additional compensation for the
discharge Of these duties even though
the salary may be very inadequate
remuneration for the services. Nor
does it alter the case that by subse-
quent statutes or ordinances, his du-
ties are increased, and not his salary.
Whenever he considers the compcnsa-
tion is inadequate, he is at liberty to
resign. The rule is of Importance to
the public. To allow changes and adj
ditions in the duties of an office to lay
the foundation for extra services would
soon introduce intolerable mischief.
The rule, too, should be very rigidly
AS to the two items that we have
been considering, the action and order
of the Board of Commissioners was
clearly right, and to that extent the
same are hereby affirmed
AS to the other item of twenty-five
dollars, charged for prosecuting the
case of the People VS.. Kellar, it APP
pears that the complaint was made in
good faith, but that the district attor-
ney subsequently became satisfied that
the defendant was insane and discon-
tlnued the prosecution. The right of
the district attorney, under such cir
to his statutory fee of
twenty-five dollars attached when the
was filed. 1t ought not, and
does not depend upon the prosecution
of the case to final judgment. The
order of the Board SO far as it relates
to the item of twenty-five dollars is
hereby reversed and said sum is to be
allowed.
lnasmuch as the appellant was oblig-
ed to appeal 10 order to have the or
ror. in respect to the item twenty-five
dollar item in his bill corrected, it is
hereby adiudged that the said respon-
dent pay the costs of tho appeal.

Am Unfortunate Affair.

A. Chardon pondent of the
the Plain Dealer gives the following
account OF an unfortunate shooting
affray which occurred in that village
on the night of Tuesday, the 9Th inst:
son several occasions some OF our boys
have endeavored TO throw some of their
associates into the water tank. Last
night four of them met and made ar
rangements for frightening Tide Tis-
del, also a member of the school.
Three of them concealed themselves
in the band stand while the other one
went to the boarding place of Clyde
and requested him to take walk.
They proceeded to the park, and as
CLYDE was about to enter the band
stand he saw those who we're concealed
and sprang back. Wallie Sweeney,
son of DIR. T. H. Sweeney, stepped
from the stand aud engaged in scuf-
fle with Clyde. Another of the boys
came to Wallie's assistance, and the
two endeavored to blindfold Clyde,
who was thrown partly down. While
in that position he drew his revolver
and holding it few inches from Wal
lies face, and tireds The ball struck
the lower part of the chin. breaking
the jaw and knocking out several of
the front teeth. Although the ball has
not yet been found, Wallie is doing as
well as could be expected, and proba-
bly, will recover. AS both parties are
at fault, it will doubtless be locked
upon as the folly of boyhood, and

A most remarkable discovery was
made by the workmsn engaged in dig.
ging the foundation for the new Casino
building On Connecticut avenue near
Seventeeth street. yesterday. In the
north west section of the foundation
an excavation was dug % feet below
the surface, and through bank of
solid red and black clay IL feet thick,
for the purpose of constructing a low
ering stage. At this great depth, and
below the solid IL foot mass of clay,
dense forest and thick growth of
plants were found. The formation of
the trees is perfect. They resemble
ash, cedar and poplar, and it has prob
ably been thousands of years since,
they saw the light of day before. The
wonderful sight of subterranean for
est so far below the surface was wit.
messed by hundreds of people yester-
day, and many specimens Of the grass
and trees were carried away as curios-
tiles. One piece of wood and clump.
of grass were sent to the White House.

The Philadelphia American con-
denses the. recent statement Of the
Director OF the Mint touching ths
amount of gold silver and paper mon
ey in this country, as follows: p,
"The data for an exact statement
are, of course, wanting, and could not
be obtained; even by q caucus. No
body knows exactly how much gold
and silver coin was in the country in
1860, or how much is carried out or in
by private persons. Nobody knows
how much paper money has been de-
stroyed by fire and otherwise, and can
not be presented for redemption. Itis
known how much gold and silver have
been coined, how much paper money
has been issued by the Treasury and
the Banks, and how much bullion has
BEEN ex ported or imported to pay ball
ances of trade. The Director believes
that the items stand as follOws:
Gold coin .S554, ,512 500

"Of the gold and silver in the treas

Gates. and may be.said to circulate in
that form. But these certi iicates con-
stitute no net addition to the currency,

what other countries and notably

THE Republican papers seem to have
taken fresh courage since the Novem-
ber elections, and to be highly elated
over the result. But their apparent
joy is merely assumed; it is but their
whistle while passing through the
graveyard in which are buried all their
hopes, for the result settles beyond
doubt that the President to be elected
in 1884 will be a Democrat. The Re-
publicans carried no States at the cleo
tions this Fall which they have not
had for the last twenty years, and
which the Democrats have not con-
ceded to them in their calculations,
while the result clearly shows that the
great States of Ohio and New York
are firmly anchored in the Democratic
column, and these with the States that
are sure to vote with the Democracy,
will render certain the election of a
Democratic President. Then will the
apparent joy of the Radical leaders be
turned into sorrow, and there will be
dismay and CONSERVATION among the
army of public plunderers. The Re-
publican party must 60.

LAND that in Missouri and the Ohio
and Mississippi Valleys would not
bring more than from fifty to seventy
five dollars per acre, in France would
sell for one hundred dollars per acre.
France has no landlords. The men
who till the soil generally own it; and
1t is this fact, in connection with pa.
tient and cheerful labor and close econ
omy, that enables the French farmer
to exist and maintain himself in com.

Prehistoric Relics.

PAINESVILLE, November 10.-An
interesting relic OF the prehistoric age
has been on exhibition at the office of
the Painesville Democrat today. 1t is
a portion of the ivory tusk of d masto-
don that was unearthed at the gravel
pit. south of town. Soon after the
discovery WAS made. which was at a
depth of thirty leet below the surface,
the bank caved in, and it is thought
the entire carcass will be unearthed
when that point is again reached by
the workmen. The tusk is nearly
three feet in length, and three feet in
diameter, very heavy, and in very
remarkable state of preservation, not
pepri1ication. The exterior is hard and
knOtiy, while the iaterior is smooth,
and where Splintered off. nearly trans.
parent. Scientists say the relic must
have belonged to the carcass of mas
todon that was swept down here ages
ago, during the drift period. Many
curious people have viewed the tusk
during the day.
