The latest sensation among fashion
able esthetes is Ores, a new form of
ceramics, in which the perfection of
the potter's art is attained. 1t is made
in the form of jugs, vases, urns, tank
ards and designs of bric-a-brac. These
forms are antique in shape, and have
an ancient finish. TIE mellow rlch-
ness of great age is caused by the alb
sence of all glaze, and the use of diff
ferent colored clays to give the color
effects. The clays are inlaid, and the
whole thoroughly fused, at a Temporal
ture much higher than any ever before
attained i'll pottery.

The Railroads and Passengers

The GAZETTE some months ago
published and commended the decis-
ion of the Railroad Commission of
Alabama compelling Railroads to pro-
vide first class cars for colored passen-
gers. This decision was made on a
complaint from a delegation of color
ed citizens who waited on the Com
missioners at Montgomery, laying be-
fore them the poor fare and abusive
treatment to which colored ladies and
colored passengers were indiscrimi-
na:ely compelled to submit to, al
though paying first-class fare.
1t appears now that at least on the
Memphis & Charlestt n Road this
treatment continues.
On this Road anothet first-class
coach has been attached to the pass
enger trains, but officials stand at the
doors of said cars and refuse colored
ladies and gentlemen admittance, and
quiet, modest people not disposed to
wrangle and fuss for a seat are thrown
in the promiscuous, rough crowds Of
the smoking cars.
Now the question is. Who is it
infringing on the State-law giving
separate though first class fare to col
ored parsengers holding first-class
tickets. Is it the Company or the
employees merely ?
Will not the State enforce its laws

RESOLUTIONS

Resolyed-That whereas we the Republi-
cans, Greenbackers and Independents Of
Lawrence county, regard the Bourbon party,
as the enemy of free speech, free press and
Jair and honest elections, the authors of the
fraud called the common school system
which gives 80 cents pr capita, to the chill
dren Of the poor in the common schools Of
the state, spends $4,000 pr capita for the
students in their Universities thus discrim-
mating between the rich and poor. We
therefore approve of the National co-opera'
tive organization, the object of which is to
unite all OF the elements, that are in oppo-
sition to BeurbOnism.
Resolped-That we regard, the repeal of
the present election law OF the this state and
the securing of fair and honest count OF
votes as cast as paramount to all other is
sues.
Resolred-That the default of the late
treasurer Of the state and the default Of a
host of county officials is a foul stain, upon
the escutcheon of Alabama. and is the log
ical result Of foisting, set Of officers into
office by fraud.
Resolred-That we favor the establish
ment of an efficient system Of free schools
which will give to every child in the state
the opportunity of acquiring an education
and we favor National aid to this cause and
we hereby request our Senators and repre-
sentatives in Congress to use their influence,
to this end.
Resolred-That we favor the aboliti on Of
the present convict system OF the state which
is disgrace to the civilization Of this age.
Resolved That it is the sense Of this con-
vention, that every individual either as
delegate or candidate who participates in
its proceedings, is bound by every consider
alton of honor, to abide by its action and
accept the result in good faith, by support
ing its nominees.

Salem was thrown into q state of excite

ofan immense robbery at the store Of
Caldwell, BeehCr q Lieke. The proprie i.
tors claimed that $1,000 worth of goods had
been stolen, but the amount was probably
exaggerated. Entrance was made from
the back side, some thought from the out
side by prying open the iron shutters,
others that there was confederate COM
esale d within. The best goods in the store
were taken, and they were conveyed away
In a wagon. Search was Immediately
made for the robbers, which resulted in
the finding Of large quantity OF goods in
. barn about three miles from Salem,
which were identified a. the ones stolen.
