in 6 very orderly manner except IN one or
two instances. 6ie got drunk, became
boisterou5 and WAS arrested By Policeman
Dixon, who put him in the calaboosa
where white lunstic was confined, and
who OF once MADE war upon the negro in
s mos fer0cious manner. The negro
was bruised slightly about the he5d
aud face, and bled profusely, while the
lunatic received but one blow frcm the
Degro's hst. After this CccurEerce, ore
Robert Armstrong, & colored barber, wi0

several blows on the hesd with q hsm-
msr, which by chance he hsd in his baud.
Both parties were arrsigned before the
Mayor and contributed to the city fund.
Some CT the negroes became very
Indignant, and some little feeling OF race
hatred readily spIang up on the spur of
the moment, but subsidized without re-
suits. The day being too wet for the
crowd to go to the park, the colored
schoolhouse was appropriated for the
occasion. Mayor DuBose made the well

speakers, both white and black.

publishc, this week an article ON the Actual
Status uf the Panama Canal" giving the 10.
suits " recent expert examination Of the
entire length Of the canal and accompanied
by progress profile, showing the amount OF
work done aud undouc Ia January / Of the
present year, both for the sea level and lock
canal The profile shows that the only work
which is anywhere near completion is about
eleven miles Of dredging on the Atlantic end
and about milo at the Pacific end On the
remainder of the work the proportion done
is very small In comparison with that UNI
done.
The estimate given In connection with the
profile, shows q total NJ 3lONl OoO cubic me-

OOO to ~ OOO 600 meters, AZ the highest rate
vet reached OF 100000 cubic meters per
month, Il is estimated that at least four years
will be- necessary to finish the canal, II there
no lack Of money.
The total amount OF cash actually cNprnd-
ed up 10 the present date Is tli5,9 ,OOO, rep

The article declares that the progress pro.

has yet been spent which would hc required
to open q sea level canal, which Icyscp, de-
clarcd last November would be- opened Feb.
ruary 20, 1870. Therefore We can only escape
from the conclusion that the impossihility Ut
completing sea level canal has been known
Tor three ar four years at least by assuming
colossal ignorance, citlcr Of which is equally
fatal tu their Crrdihllly In regard tu the
