The towns of New Richmond
and Felicity, in Clermont
county, O., stand out ce-spicu-
ousiy as the only two places in
that State where colored chill
dren are not alrowed i'm the
white schools. Recently al, at
tempt was made to force the
issue in the schools in the lat
ter place, but it was opposed by
the white citizens, who went so
far as to resort to force. 1t is a
significant fact that Felicity is a
strongly Republican place, and
was d hot bed of Abolitionists
dufing the war, and that the
present School Board is Repub-
lican. The grand jury of Cler-
mont county has just returned
indictments against nineteen
white citizens Of Felicity on the
ground of melting a riot, but no
conviction is expected. The
white people in both towns an
nounce publicly that they will
never submit to having coIored
children placed in the public
schools unless the United States
see fit to send troops there &c
them. The race feeling
IN these two towns has grown
so bitter that the citizens have
discharged all their colored ser.
wants and will act as a unit IL
their opposition to the admis
sion Of colored children into thu
schools.

The Russians, says an English
paper, are moving rapidlyo on
every line that, makes national
progress. Scientific exploration
is being carried on in many
different directions; laboratories
observatories are.being founded,
and railways opened at q Won
derfuIly rapid rate. There are
now 1880 miles of railway
open to traffic in Russia. Of this
the State owns about one fifth
only. The Russians are inde-
pendent of foreign nations for
coal, iron, oil and mechanical
skill, and the foreign element is
being eliminated from Russian
works, so that the progress OF
the empire is taking place on q
