done full many a corpse lay ghastly pale beneath the setting sun ; aud midst tbe dead and dying were some grown old in wars the death-wounds on the gallant breasts the last of many scars . and some were young and suddenly beheld life's noon decline and one had come from bingen from bingen ou the kb ine ttllmy mother that her sons shall comfort iin via fv . and i was still a truant bird that

to pre sident johnson asking him to revoke general canby's recent order on the sub ject of juries he says : to show the ruinous results however thai will follow from this order if it is al lowed to be executed i beg leave to call youo attention to the matter of registra tion in tliis state tpere are white majorities in but six districts in two districts the numbers are abotit equal in each of the remaining twenty-three districts of the state — there bei.ig altogether thirty-one — the registra tion shows a colored majority in charles ton the colored majority is 1,812 the re gistered whites being 3,286 and the blacks 5,038 ofthe whites 118 were unable to biga their names ; ofthe colored 2 sog — in charleston and columbia a larger num ber of the hitter class of persons can read and write than in any other portion ofthe state ; a very much larger number be cause they have had facilities before and since emancipation of obtaining some edu cation not enjoyed by their class in all the rural region of the state to which i shall advert more particularly hereafter in or ganizing a jury in charleston therefore assuming that all have paid their taxes this proportion would give nearly eight colored jurors to four whites and five of these eight would not be able to sign their names in beaufort georgetown colle ton berkley and other districts the show ing ic iiitu iiuiov tv lt.«l ttmx ttm^mm beaufort indicate that there are 2,550 col ored aud but sixty-five white voters regis tered this proportion would furnish but one white man to every fourth jury of the colored voters registered in the rural districts i estimate that not more than five per cent of the whole number are able to read and write and very many of them have not intelligence enough to count one hundred in georgetown district there ate 418 whites and 4,413 colored voters registered one white man might per chance be drawn upon each jury and in i all probability not one of the remaining ! even colored men would be able to read , aiid write to sum up theie will be in twenty-three ! districts ot this state a majority of colored jurors for the trial of all classes of cases civil and criminal and only five per cent j of their number will be able to write does ; a : y country which has established the right of trial by jury fail hy its legisla tion to secure a proper degree of intelli ; gence amor g the jurors . these rules if applied to the state courts will i pre sume be likewise applied to the federal curt and the proportion upon such fed eral juries will be in cliarh ston eight colored to four whites in columbia nine colored to three whites and in greenville eight white to four colored jurors these are the three points where the u states court sits in south carolina can these colored people discharge the duties of jurors either to the united states or to the state to the litigants or to pub lic justice with such instruments will not the effort to administer justice be a mockery ? now if the order had provi ded that no person shall be allowed to sit upon a jury who is unable to read or write or if a property qualification bad ben an nexed or if in cases civil or criminal in which colored persons maybe interested a certain proportion of the jury should con sist of their own color it might not have been objected to seriously ; but in its pre sent bearings the order is to lead to results which must universally be deplored by those who desire to see even and exnet justice meted out to all men nearly all ofthe litigjnion certainly all ofthe impor tant litigation on the civil side of the court is between white citizens and in volves intricate issues of law and fact as well as sums great and small what pro tection can the white or even the colored man himself have if his case is to be de cided by a jury made up of persons pos sessing so little intelligence that they are unable to read write or cipher with what satisfaction would a northern claim ant regard adverse decision made by a jury a majority of whom were colored when the same case measured by intelli gence and submitted to the judgment of men of experience and education would perhaps have been decided in his favor suppose that he is a patentee whose rights have been infringed and whose interests — involved to the amount of half a million of dollars — are dependent upon the keen discrimination or a'n intelligent jury called upon to determine some material difference between machinery or processes of manu facture ; is it not preposterous to suppose that a colored jury constituted as i have described possess the requisite qualifica tions to render a just and intelligent ver dict ? yet this is but one of the many classes of cases which the northern as well as the southern man will be compell ed to take judgment of the ignorant and unwise jurors created by order no 80 in view of all these circumstances there fore i beg leave most earnestly to protest against its execution and to

that if mad there was method in the bishop's madness he went to rome renounced his church and otllce and received absolution from his holiness the pope there was at the time to which we re fer a stir

exhibitions as every prudent politic and astute leader and reformer must make before he drops his mask we acquit the bishop of all deliberate wickness und bend in humility and borrow over the grave of so much learning excellence and piety in 1854 bishop ives published a small volume trials of a mind in its progress to catholicism pp.232 deco this with a catechism occasional bermons and an address

cut them up into small farms of from 50 to 100 acres and offered to give a title in fee simple to each alternate farm to any family who would settle on it for five years these farms were all soon
