month. enough to eat up the profits on 10o,- 900 copies.
 A sad state of affairs is that which exists in the towns of New Richmond and Felicity, in Clermont county, Ohio. When the law was passed abolishing the separate schools for the blacks, the white people of the two towns openly rebelled, and they have held the fort to this day, although the colered peo- pie are not giving in without a struggle. When the schools opened in September sixty colored children in Felicity, acting upon the advice of their parents, went to the public school for white children and demanded ad- mission as pupils. A crowd of men and women barred their progress, and sent them home, boxing the ears of many of the more clamorous. This experiment was repeated on the two following Mondays with practical ly the same result, and the colored people concluded that they had got enough. They decided upon legal measures, and as resulS a dozen white citizens have been indicted by the grand jury on the ground of melting a riot. The indictments have produced bit ter feeling between the two races, one result being the institution of a determined boycott against the negroes. White citizens have discharged their colored help and the situa- tion is growing more and more strained.

CONTRADICTIONS.

An Argument That DoesNOt Convince. To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 A newspaper of this city contains report of an interview with Dr. WilIiston. If that report be correct Dr. Williston, upon being asked abont Dr. F. L. Dibble's recent criti- cism of the board of health, said that he only wanted to talk about one point. The substance of that point was that Dr. Dibble criticised the board of health from personal and selfish reasons.
 If this reported allegation of Dr. Williston be correct, Dr. Dibble is a scoundreI. To say the least, it is an unscientifc mode of conducting an argument to assail the charac- ter of an opponent.
 The board of health cannot be successfully defended by blackguarding it's critics.

REsTRICTING ImmIGRATION.

It has been discovered that this country is too free, and that it is time to be 8 little stricter about the foreigners who are allowed to come here and share it's privileges. One of the fruits of this discovery is the bill in- troduced in the house by Congressman Oates of Alabama. The provisions of this bill are worth attention.
 If this bill becomes law it will require every intending emigrant, three months be- fore embarking for this country, to obtain from the United States consul or consular agent nearest his residence certificate show ing that he does not belong to any of the prohibited classes, such as idiots, lunatics, paupers, convicts, ex.convicts, polygamists, anarchists, socialists, persons afflicted with loathsome diseases or persons under contract to labor, and no master of 8 vessel may re- ceive emigrants on board without such cer- tifcates. Prohibited persons who enter this country are punishable by fine and imprison- ment and citizens who bring such persons here are liable to the same punishment, and if such persons are brought here they will be sent back at the expense of the transs portation company that brought them, if they are detected at any time within two years of their arrival. A provision for checking excessive immigration limits the number of persons which any vessel may bring to the United States to five for each 100 tons capacity of the vessel. Thus 1000 ton vessel can bring only 50 immigrants. A fine not exceeding $500 is imposed for each pas- senger in excess of this number.
 One provision of the bill levies tax of $25 upon every alien who comes to the Unit ed States, the tax to be collected by the col lector of customs at the port of entry, from the owner or master sf the vessel bringing ! the immigrant. Agents of foreign govern ments or persons travelling for instruction
 or amusement are exempted from the tax | and persons who come for a temporary resi- dence with us will have the tax refunded upon their departure. It is presumed ths
 any immigrant who can pay tax of $25 ii not a pauper.
 Some such bill as this ought to be passed
 and probably will be. It has been too easy | to get into this glorious land.
