brings old Virginia out ahead Who
would suppose, after reading the loving
words of our Northern brethren; that Nir
ginia was the first colony in America in
which negroes could hold land. But such
is the fact A gentleman who was ex-
amining the land books yesterday found
patent, dated 1854, in which 100 acres
in Northampton county were granted to
Richard Johnson negro" And this was
not all. for the patent states that the land
granted adjoined the land Of John John

Can holy New England show as early an
instance where negroes were allowed to

Cinnamon continue TO be the wards OF
the Grand Trunk railway, sleeping on The
floor in the general waiting room OF the
station. They have written and received
several letters since their arrival here
week ago. The Grand Trunk authorities
have done everything in their power to
gct them acIoss the frontier and 10 their
destination, even communicating with the
authorities at Washington. Each time
the reply has come that they cannot be
allowed to enter the country All Ling,
the seemingly representative and educe-
ted one OF the party, received a Chinese
letter from friend in Chicago on Friday
last advising him to cOmmunicate with
the Chinese Ambassador at Washington,
stating the full cause Of their detention,
which be has done. No doubt the matter
will become an international question
between China and the United States.
The feeling here is that the Canadian
Government should object to Canada

Chinese pauper population Of the United
States-made psupers by the United
States authorities not allowing them to
return to their places Of business and
work.
