In the Travels IN SPAIN" by
the Marquis Of Zanglc, he speaks
of a parrot that retained a quantity
OF things-an incredible number of
stories and anecdotes-whlch it re-
lated without hesitation. 1t spoke
Spanish, murdered French, knew
some verses Of Racine, could say
grace, repeat the fable Of the crow
and count thirty louis. They dared
scarcely to hang its cage at the win
dows, tor when it was there and
the weather was fine the parrot
talked ccasclessly. 1t said every
thing it knew, apostrophized all
passers-by, except women, and
talked politics, TO n Of these
birds Prince Leon owed his life.
He had been condemned to death
by the father, and the parrot took
it so much to heart that he kept
repeating, Alas my master Leon,
and the sorrow Of the bird made
such an impression on the brutal
father that he released his son.

To the Editor Of the Dispatch:
A communication in yesterdays Dis

errors that | must ask leave to correct
some of them. / shall entirely overlook
what the writer has to say in praise OF a
scheme for repudiating three fourths OF the
public debt, and confine myself exclusively
to what he has to say touching the present
legal aspects OF the controversy.
Error No. |. Judge Bonds decision in
the case Of Smith Us. Greenhow IS final,

Smith could appeal when Judge Bond
decided the case against him, because he
claimed more than $4,000 damages, and
was put out of court on a demurrer. There
| fore. for all the court could perceive, more
than S., 900 was involved in the case. But
Greenhow cannot appeal until there is a
verdict against him for $1,000, and as the
tax involved was only SO, it is not likely
there will be any such verdict. The State
can never get Judge Bonds decision re-
viewed until there is verdict against some
treasurer for $4,000

babe Result.
Correspondence OF the Richmond Dspatch.l
MAY 6, 1884.
The new registration. books were opened
i'm this city this morning, and registration
has been going on rapidly all day. The
negroes are coming forward in large num-
bers, and Judging from this fact they have
been well instructed and are managed by
skiful leaders. A number OF applicants
have been refused registration in several
OF the wards on the ground OF not being
legally qualified, and in many cases ap-
peaIs have been taken to the Judge OF the
| Hustings Court. Everything, however,
has been quiet and orderly during the
day.
There are various estimates as to the re-
suit OF our city registration. 1t is prob
able that the books will show about 1000
| white and 1900 cOlored voters. a promi-
uent and well-informed Republican Is au-
thority for stating that the Straightout
strength here is not less than 400, and he
thinks this number will be increased rs

men, and in municipal politics 1t is be-
lieved they will vote with the Democrats.

| The Democrats in all the counties
throughout this section have chosen their
delegates to the State Convention, and
among the list of names may be found
many Of the best representative men OF the
South Side. A number Of these gentle
men, who have recently visited our city,
speak most encouragingly OF the prospects
of the Democracy ia their section, and all
of them tell OF changes from MahoneiSm
since it has donned the name OF Republi-
can.
The Ettrick cotton-mill, which has been
closed for some days IN consequence OF
q strike of the operatives, resumed work
to-day, the employees having accepted the
reduction OF wages proposed by the com
pany.
1t is pretty well understood that Colone
Brady is to be the candidate of the Coali'
tlonists for Congress in this district. The
hopes OF the cOlored people Of having ont
OF their own race to represent the "black
district" where they are in such a large
. majority, are destined TO be blasted. The
colored brother is reserved for less honor
able and less lucrative positions.

A Negro Party Defeated I'm the South,

An Ashville IN. ca special OF Monday
says: The municipal election was held here
to-day, and the White Mans party, organ
lied by white Republicans and Democrats
TO defeat the negro party. won by hand
some majority. A full vote was polled.
For q week the excitement has been in
tense. To-day everything was quiet. On
Saturday evening the advocates Of negro
rights issued secret circular TO defeat the
other party. The white citizens assembled
at a meeting; stirring speeches were made
and resolutions passed deDouncing the
plot as infamous, causing the White Mans
party to gain an overwhelming victory.
The result means the supremacy OF the
white citizens in this city. While attempt
ing to make an arrest last night, which bad
its origin in election schemes, one man vas
knocked down and policeman was badly
cut. A colored policeman was prevented
from taking part by other negroes, other
wise be would have been shot.
