Coaches for COIored Men.
RICHMOND, Va, Aug. 1S.-The Pa
munkey Indians, of King William county
are highly indignant over the action of the
Southern Railway conductors in assigning
them to seats in the coaches for colored
people. They have sent a committee to
Richmond to try and enlist the sympathy
of some of their white friends with view
of having Railroad Commissioner Hill pass
upon the question
The higher officials of the Southern Road
have approved the course pursued by the
conductors. Lawyers who have carefully
examined the provisions OF the Epps bill
and the laws of the State regarding the
races are of the opinion that the Pamun-
keys belong in the coaches for colored peo-
pie The Chinese will also have to occupy
the coaches for coiored persons.

of the governor are installed the secre-
tary of State, the encouragement, the
Acknowledgement and the lieutenant
governor. In connection with the leg
islative halls there are offices for the
speaker, clerks. secretaries, visitors
rooms, coat and toilet rooms. The ar
rangement of the legislative halls is
somewhat out of the usual order, the
speakers platform being located on the
side of the entrance, while the desks OF
the members are ranged in semi-circu-
lar rows in the manner OF amphi'
theaters with their backs to the win
dows. The visitors galleries are over
the speakers platform, consequently
visitors will face the members OF the
houses.
Under the two legislative halls, and
consequently on the first story, are
located in one end the supreme court
and in the other end the State library,
both of ample proportions The bal

while England was fighting China.
Tattnall was ordered there to watcn
and protect American interests, but to
preserve strict neutrality. His yes
sci got stranded on rock in the China
seas and he was in distress until an
English man-of-war came to his re-
J, lief and helped him off. Soon after this
the Chinese were getting the best OF

helped the English to whip them. FOR
this he was court-martialed when ne

The secretary of State having sub
mitted this query to Attorney General
McClurg-
do the provisions of the act pre-
scribing fees to be collected by the Sec
rotary of State apply to foreign cor
porations or companies doing business
in the State, through drummers or sam
pies, where the goods or manufactured
products are sent direct to the pur-
chasers?"
The. attorney general answers:
at does not matter how the business
is transacted, whether through drum
mers, by sample, or otherwise, nor that
the goods or products are shipped direct
from the factory in one State to the
purchaser in this, nor that the debt is
payable in another State. 1t is the act
and fact Of doing business that controls.
"The people of this State transacting
any kind of business with foreign
corporation (for profit are entitled to
have easy access to their charters, that
they more readily and satisfactorily
consider the character, powers and La
bilities of the concern with which they
are dealing, as are the State officials to
determine whether such corporations
are abusing or exceeding THAR lawful
powers.
The attorney general holds that the
statute enacted at the last session OF
the legislature SIS but the reasonable
exercise Of the constitutional power OF
the State to prescribe conditions upon
which a foreign corporation may do
business within her limits, and in nc
manner does it interfere with inter
state commerce.
"a single and isolated transaction in
this State by foreign corporation
would not require the fling of its char
ter here, but every foreign corporation
for profit except insurance companies,
sending it's solicitor or salesman here
or otherwise doing business with the
people of Mississippi, should file the
charter in the office of the secretary Of
State and pay the fee of SIS, in default
of which it is liable to fine of $15, not
considering the question as to its right
to continue it's business in the State, OF
it's power to collect its debts or to en-
force its contracts while doing business
