The New York San says ''there is no

Other Northern journals say the same
thing They also said recently that the
best society in Virginia was only semi-
civilized, and illustrated that assertion
by detailed statement of bloody
scene in a ball room in Bedford county,
where the ladies dresses were sprinkled
with the blood of gentleman murder
ed before their eyes. But the ball al
luded to was a negro ball at a negro

CIVIL RIGHTS.-On Monday OF last
week two decisions were rendered by
the Supreme Court of the United States
which tend to settle the status of color
ed citizens under the law. In case
appealed from the Supreme Court OF
Kentucky it was held that the refusal
to permit coIored citizens to serve as Ju
rors is violation of the fourteenth
amendment to the constitution of the
United States, an d an Indictment found
by grand jury fir ON which colored per
sons are excluded by State Law is void
when brought into the federal Jurisdic
ton. In case appealed from Alabama
to test the validity of a law which pro-
hibits the marriage Of colored persons
with white persons, it was decided thai
where the penalties of the prohibitory
statute apply equally to both races there
is no violation of the fourteenth amend
ment. The Judgment Of the Alabama
court was affirmed because She same
punishment was meted out 10 both of.
tenders.

Facts.

The Valley Virgiaaian in recent Is
sue made the statement that the action
of the Board in electing Capt. &. 5,
Roller to the position of Principal OF the
DID. & B. Institution in this city, was
in no wise different from the action OF
nrevious Boards in the fact of its ap-
pointing man who was not a "pron-
cient' in the sign language. This state
ment is in part true, but the facts of the
previous appointments, which were
omitted by the Virgimiom, are as fol-
lows :. Capt. c. D. Mccoy was elected a
teacher in the Blind Department in the
summer of 1868, and three years after
wards was elected Principal. For about
wear before his election he devoted a
portion of his time to the requirement
of the sign language, as he intended to
be an applicant for the Principalship OF
the West Virginia Institution, which
was established about that time. 1t Is
true that he was not an eIpert IN the
sign language, but was able to converse
intelligently with deaf-mutes at the
| time of his election.
When Mccoy was elected Principal
| in August 1871, Capt. T. S. Doyle was
elected to fill his place ss TEACHER ip tine
Blind Department. Eight years after
wards, at the death Of Capt Mccoy, he
was placed in temporary charge ct the
| Institution, and remained SO for six
1 weeks, to the satisfaction of all.
In June, 1860, nine years after his
election as teacher, be was elected Prin-
cipal of the Institution. In 1874 he vae
an uusueeeessfai applicant FOR the Prin.
cipal of the West Virginia Institution,
and from that time devoted Fpgeb Tins
and attention to the attempt TO ae4asff
a knowledge of signs, and though not an
expert, has fair knowledge of them.
These are the facts lip the case, not
withstanding the Virginian's lnelnps
ton to the contrary.
