The action OF the State Board in making
this raid upon the public schools In the
city Of Richmond was unwarranted, and
shows clearly to the people who will stop
and think what an INSCRIPTIONS set " pO-
litical tricksters they have TO deal with in
the leaders OF the ReadiuSter party. They
stop a nothing to accomplish their ncia-
riouS purposes. and would hlackcn. blast.
wither, and damn the iarcst ornaments Of
the State. and the brightest records Of the
Commonwealth. if such action would cnure
to their political ACKNOWLEDGEMENT. II Per-
scrolls was 10 be burned. the hand OF Al
eXander was ready TO execute the deed; if
dancing wcnch pleased HerOd. the most
venerable Of all heads must be sacrificed TO
satisfy the rage OF her impure mother, and
if the white people OF the city OF Richmond
are TO be degraded by having the schools
which their children attend Superintcnded
partially by negroes. Governor Cameron,
AttOrney-Geueral Blair, and Supcrintcnd-
ent FAIR are found ready TO perpetratc this
wanton outrage. And all this for political
purposes. Not that they care for the
schools; not that they care for the negro,
except 10 Use both a. a means 10 an end,
and that end is the disruption OF the Demo-
cratic party, the abolition OF the grand
principles laid down by our fathers H. the
foundaton-stOnes OF civil liberty and re-
publican institutions. "WhOm the gods
would destroy they first make mad" and
surely the people will not long brook such
outrageS upon their rights and their race.

We think the Mahoneites begin to see
their doom. The handwriting on the wall
Is unmlstakable. They have been weighed

evils, are receiving the earnest consideration
Of every true Nirginian. -FrederickSJurg

70 the Editor Of the Dispatch:
When the State Board Of Education de-
c'ded that the late school trustees of this
city had moi legally qualified, and declared
their places vacant, did they direct the
Superintendent Of Schools to suggest list
Of suitable persons to ill the vacancies?
Did the Superintendent OF Schools of
Richmond present the names OF two ne
groes as suitable persons for trustees OF her

We have been asked whether Mr.. L. NJ.
GARNETT recommended any negroes for
appointment upon the School Board OF
this city? We do not know; but from the
fact that the Governors own messenger
was made member Of the Board we infer
that Mr.. GARNET did not recommend any
negroes for that position. We invite him
TO answer for himself through the columns
OF the Dispatch.

When Malone says to the New York
Globe that his party is composed chiefly Of
the negroes and poor white people OF Vir-
ginia, and that the negro shall have equal
rights in every respect with them, does he
not know that he then and there raises a
line and marks out course for the two
races. Does he not know that the "poor
people" do not wish his guardianship and
protection under such circumstances |?
Does he not know that the poorest white
man in Virginia would prefer to place him
self in a position to say himself whether
white men OF Virginia are giving him his
rights than call upon the negroes OF the
State to help him demand from his own
race and color that justice be done him?
Would he not rather that they should say
what his rights and interest are than these

THE CONRAD TRAGEDY.
Fears That the Wife win Commit suicide
or RacOme HOnelaaslY Ineane.

or Become HOpelessly Insane.
BALTIMORE. Md, August S-The condi-
tion of Mrs. Minnie Howard Conrad, who
yesterday shot and killed her husband, Mr.
L. L. Conrad, leading member of the
Baltimore bar, at the Worthington home
stead in Baltimore county, is to day such as
to give great alarm to all her friends. She
seems, in fact, to realize what she has done,
and members of the family are of the
opinion that she will either take her own
life or become hopelessly insane. Her pain
remains the same and close watch is kept
upon her to see that she does herself no
harm.
The funeral of Mr. Conrad takes place to-
morrow from the parish church In Worth
ington Valley, near the Worthington man
sion. This tragedy is one of succession of
terrible deeds that has marked the history
of the Worthington families for q number
of years past, each traceable to a touch OF
insanity never fully realized until the
tragedy was enacted.
Mr. Conrad's marriage to Miss Worthing-
ton occurred under the happiest auspices
more than 10 years ago and was an event of
wide interest in Southern society. He was
then very promising young lawyer, and
the bride, before her incurable malady be-
gan, was always vivacious and of a loving
as well as refined disposition. Mr.. Conrad's
laIneT, TresluenG rlllmoTe'b secretary OI
war, was fer many years social hero at
White sulpher Springs, and he was a fa-
nous duelist throughout the South. After
the Conrad. Worthington nuptials at New
Orleans the young people spent happy
honeymoon at White Sulphur, and were
laughed at for the sentimentality of their
devotion to each other,
There has never been the lightest rumor
Of disagreement between them as years
have passed, aud the wife, though first in
Maryland society; has been compelled to
seek the seclusion of an invalid's room. Mr.
Conrad has been attentive, devoted and gen
erous, and the supposition that his death
was the result of anything but accident Or
an insane freak, therefore, gains no founda-
tion.
