JUSTICE.

Mr.. Munford's trial has been post
poned till July. For the sake of
justice it is fortunate thing that the
jury, which was composed of men
almost wholly of one political party,
should have been discharged, and we
earnestly trust that the jury which is
to succeed it will consist of a fairer
proportion of members of the two
opposing political organizations.
We hope, moreover, that "conversa-
tions" with jurymen will be considered
out of order, and that no one will ever
try to secure a place on the jury who
is filed with the spirit of revenge and is
desirous of Furnishing his political op-
nents. Fiat JISticia T,tGt coeleum =
The State, Richmond, Va.
The State awhile back did not con-
slider it unfair to have twelve out
spoken well-known Democrats try
Republicans, or set on the cases Of
persons who were not Of Democratic
persuasion, now the jury matters in
the State have been changed, and yet
the grumble comes up from the fact
that the State and its kind no longer
control the courts and the juries, and
the general belief with the funders
seems to be that their sins viii be
brought to light.

A STABLE SENATOR ON HIS
MTJSCTE

Senator Henry Demas had fine op-
portunity of displaying his physical
capacities Tuesday morning last, equal
to his knowledge of parliamentary rules.
The Whisper had landed some freight
for him and laid it in pool of water,
when the Senator rode to the spot and
asked the clerk why he had not put
his wares on dry spot. The clerk told
him to 60 to h-.The Sentor did not
appreciate the invitation, and promptly
dismounting his steed, assumed bel
hcose attitude, when the clerk struck
him ON the nose with his freight book.
But no sooner was the blow inflicted
than the clerk was laid fiat down in
thedirt by powerful senatorial fist
blow. Another clerk of the boat ran
TO the assistance of his comrade, but
sad was his fate. Another heavy blow
from the Senator made him take a
plunge in the river. Convinced of
their physical inferiority to the Sena-
tor, the clerks moved to safe distance
from him. Pistol shots were fired but
nobody hurt.

THE CoLoRED UNION SOLDIER
SHALL THERE BE A MONUMENT? +?

The Southern whites in the late un-
pleasantness fought nobly and coura-
geously in defense of what they
believed to be right. Notwithstanding
they were whipped, they never ceased
to praise the valor of their sacred dead,
and to erect monuments in their honor.
o! ingratitude and shame upon the
colored people Of the United States,
who show such little appreciation
for the yalor Of negro soldiers who died
for the preservation of the Union.
Have our people forgotten so soon the
Ettle unplcasantness that existed some
time ago? Pause, and for moment
trudge the old Jerusalem plank road
without the city limits, beyond old
Blandforl church, and there we will
call to vour remembrance the crater
where the black heroes marched into
the Jaws of death. We will show you
the soil over which the blood Of the
noble brave was scattered. That
battle in which the negroes manifested
their patriotism aud undying love for
their country, that they marched for
ward only to embrace death. Let us
erect monument in honor to
the black heroes, who leaped
over the fortifcation with their
muskets in our defense and suf-
fered their bodies as it were to become
breastworks, while pouring out their
blood most freely and willingly for oul
redemption from bondage.-LGncet

purpose of taking into consideration
the matter of erecting monument in
the national capital to the memory OF
the colored soldiers that fell during the
war for the union. The work of pre-
pairing business has been left with a
subcommittee, and report will be
made this Fall just before the assem-
bling of Congress. This much can be
said now, that the gentlemen named
have assurances that it will he possible
to obtain an amount of money sufficient
for all purposes from Congress, out of
the unclaimed money due colored
soldiers. The thing that is mostly
desired is hearty concurrence on the
part of both citizens and ex-soldIerS
and such names as will afford an
amount of confidence that will keep
down anything like cavel or doubt OF
suspicion. 1t is hoped that by 1886
the monument will be among the fixed
things in Washington.

THE CONVENTION.

The colored press throughout the
country are kicking against the con-
ventiOn being held in this city. If
they could give sufficient reason for it
perhaps the committee would adhere
to them; but as the opposers have
made crazy peoples argument, the
committee proposes to hold the con-
vention in this city. Their foolish
arguments are these: The government
officials will buy up the convention;
it will be controlled by department
clerks now having the eolored press
sense enough to know that the people
have it in their power to send other
than department clerks to the conven-
tion, and don't the colored press know
that it is in the power of the people to
send men who cannot be bought by
Uncle Sam. The committee proposes
to hold the convention in Washington,
so that settles it. The call will be is
sued next week.
We want Mr.. Folger to understand

SuperstitiOns About Cats.

The question why the chariot of
Freyja was drawn 10y cats, and why
HOlda was attended by maidens riding
on cats or themselyes disguised in
fel ne form, is easily solved. Like the
lynx and the owl of P;t.las Athena, the
ca owes its celestial honOrs above all
to its eyes, that gleam in tae dark like
fire; but the belief in its supernatural
powers may very probably have been
corroborate by the common ojserva-
tion that the cat, like the stormy boar.
is wea, her-wiSe animal. Pigs, as
everybody knows, see the wind in
WeStphaIia they smell it. Good
weather may usually be expected when
the cat washes her elf, but bad
when she lick5 her coat against
the grain, or washes her face
over her ear, or sits with her
tail to the fire. In Germany
If it rains when women have washing
on hand, it is sign that the cats have
a spite against them, because they
have not treated the animals well
An enemy to cats may reckon upon ii
that he will be carried to his grave in
wind and rain; and in Holland, if the
weather is rainy on wedding day, the
saying is that the bride has neglected
to feed the cat. English sailors dc
not much like to see cats on board
ship, but 1T least of all Ito they like to
see them unusually friSky, for then
they say she has u gale of wind in
her tail" An infallible recipe for
raising storm is to throw cat over
board. The presence of q dead hare
on board is also said to bring bad
weather.

this pleasant opportunity of informing

to know whether he deserves the en-

want fire and less smoke; that is, we
want TO see a beautiful blaze, as it is
