A Freposterous Statement.

Every now and then some republican
jumps up, cracks his heels together, and de-
clares that the Republican party alone
brought about the abolition of slavery.
Those who make such a statement don't ex-
pect intelligent and well-informed people
to believe it. They don't believe it them
selves. In fact, they know that it is absurd
and untrue, but it answers the purposes for
which it was made, viz: to deceive ignorant
white people in the north and colored peo-
pie in the south.
Probably Senator ingalls, understands
this quite rs well as anybody else, and yet
he said in his speech on the race problem
the other day: POLITICALLY. the colorei
people are affiliated with the victors in the
late civil war; Here we have the plain in
ference that the union army was composed
entirely of republicans, and that the aboli-
ton of slavery, which was one of the re-
suits Of the war, was, therefore, solely the
work of republicans.
Senator Ingalls, knows very well that
there were almost as many democrats as
republicans in the union army. He knows
that Cen. Grant, who, it is claimed, did
more than any one else to achieve victory
for the union side, voted for Buchanan for
President ia 1856, and was democrat until
the Republican party nominated him for
President. He knows that Gen. Logan was
sent to the Illinois legislature as a demo-
crat several times before the war, was a
presidential ele"tor on the Buchanan and
Breckenridge ticket in 1856 was elected to
congress as a democrat in 1858, aud voted
for Stephen A. Douglas for Presi-
dent in 1860. He knows that
prominent union generals like Hancock and
Mcclellan were democrats to the day of
their death, but he has so little regard for
the truth that he refers to the Republican
party as the victors in the late civil war,
just as if all the republicans had fought on
one side, and all Of the democrats on the
other. 1t will strike the public that man
who deliberately makes such a statement as
that of Senat n Ingalls, is not fitted to take
part in the attempt to settle the race prob
lem,

angry he was not unwilling to 60 to the

is being recalled in connection with him is
that he had two engagements for duels for
the same day. At 8 o'clock a. m. be met
Editor Bierne just outside Richm Dad.
Shots were exchanged, nobody hurt honor
was satisfied, and Mr.. Riddleberger crossed
over into an adjoining field to exchange a
few shots with George D. Wise, one of the
best marksman in Virginia; but a heavy
rain delayed the duel, and gave the police
time to interfere.

An Object Lesson Sermon.

The author of "Reminiscences of Literary
and Clerical Life, - himself clergyman mar
rates an amusing anecdote which his reverend
grandfather used TO tell about an ignorant
young couple in his parish The old minister
had married them, but the marriage had
turned out to be ill-advised and after a while
things came to desperate pass.
The couple had vast, underlined ideas of
what rector could do, and it entered into
their foolish minus that he might be able o
undo their unhappy marriage. SO they aske d
him whether he could take them into church
again and perform some service that would get
them free, as they had been before. The rector
meditated for moment.
YES he said. Il think if you come to church
/ can put you in the way of becoming unmar-
ried But it is a curious kind of business, and
instead of coming to the liar, as before, Won
will have to go into the belfry."
The unfortunate pair readily assented and at
an appointed hour went to the church. where
the rector marched them into the belfry.
You see those two treStles, he began 1.-The
husband will have to stand on one of them and
the wife on the other"
With much wonIerment the man and woman
followed his instructions
Now each of you take bellrope in your
hand"
This was done.
Now. then, tie the ropes round your necks
and jump of the treStles."
Good lack, sir. said one of them, 1--WE should
be hanging ourselvesN
Exactly" said the minister, that is lust
what mean. The only way in which you can
unmarry yourselves in church is by hanging
yourselves in the belfry."
The young couple dropped the ropes in haste
and the minister proceeded to give them q lee
ture upon mutual forbearance and affection 1t
is to be hoped with good results

By the time Mrs. J. Ellen Fosters new
tangled temperance society had been in ex-
sstence three days, it had had three differ
emit names, and at the third christening the
word 'non-partisan" was logged in. Con-
siderilg that Mrs. Foster was stump
speaker for the republicans last fall that
she withdrew from the old and established
the new temperance organization because
the old refused to be partisan in politics
and that her husband is holding an office
under President Harrison, it may not be
very unjust to suspect that the new temper
ance organization is a woman's republican
club in disguise.

Northern newspapers and politicians ar,
decidedly opposed to the emigration OF
southern blacks, and as for the northern
blacks some Of them meet every few davs
TO protest against their brethren leaving the
south. or course the people who are mos,
greatly interested in emigration schemes
such as Senator Buffers, for instance, are
the southern whites and blacks. 1t is hardly
probable that Senator Buffers scheme will
amount to much, but if there are any blacks
who want to leave the south, and if south
ern whites are willing for them to go, there
doesn't seem TO be much occasion for north
srn people to interfere.

The arrival of Nellie Bly, in New York
at the end of her journey around the world
has excited general newsp lper comment.
some of which is quite interesting. The
Philadelphia Bulletin says, for instance
ut is likely that in a few years the time for
the trip will be cut down so much that the
experiment will be- forgotten. When steam
ers like the City of Paris are placed, as
they eventually will be, in the Pacific SER
vice the time between Asia and America
will be reduced at least a week When the
great railroad, 5000 miles long, which the
government of the car has just ordered to
be built across Asia, from Russia to the
Pacific ocean, is completed, two or three
weeks more will be cut off the schedule.
Miss Nellie Bly, will not be an old woman
when she will be able to 60 round the world
in fifty days if she cares again to be whirled
round the globe by fast trains and fast
ships" The Nashville Anlericaa remarks
that Mrs. James r. Polk, who required
nearly thirty days to 60 from Nashville to
Washington when her hush and was to be
inaugurated President, has lived to see the
day when the world could be- girdled in a
little more than twice thirty days.

The Louisiana Bond Frauds.

The trial of Maurice j. Hart, on the
charge of aiding Maj E. A. Burke, ex-
treasurer Of Louisiana, to steal 5000, 900
worth of bonds of the stats, resulted, &C =
cording to our dispatches, in a verdict of
acquittal. The jury rendered verdict
without leaving the jury box This verdict
was not a surprise to those acquainted with
the testimony. The state failed to
show that Hart know that the
bonds which he received from Burke
were stolen. 1t was brought out
that other brokers had sold bonds
for Burke. Hart, however, sold more than
any other one. But that fact asnot suffi-
Gent to justify the conclusion that he knew
thai Burke came by the bonds in an unlaw-
full manner. Hart has always borne good
reputation among business men of New
Orleans, aud it was hardly probable, there
fore, that jury would convict him unless
it had satisfactory evidence of his guilt.
however strong the impression might he
that he was guilty.
1t is now stated that an effort is to be
made to get Burke from Honduras 1t is
thought to be probable that the legislature
at its approaching session will offer a big
reward for him, and will also take steps to
induce the Honduras authorities to give him
up. 1t would not be surprising, however,
if nobody was ever convicted for Burke's
crimes. The state will lose nothing by his
criminal acts unless the legisl 4ture under
takes to make good the bonds which he en-
bezzled aud sold. Those who hold the bonds
are the ones who are out of pocket.
