A Grand “ Bender.”— Tlio engines on the

taking a holiday spree to themselves on Wed
nesday last. The one which should have
brought tha ton o’clock train west, and whioh
was found in a helpless condition and taken
in charge, somewhores along the road, by
the afternoon freight, looked ns if it had been
on a grand old “ batter.” The engine of the
three o’clock train west was also on a “ bust,”
so far as its flues were concerned ; while the
engine of the Evening Express was com
pletely “ sewed up,” Miss Jenny Lind being
taken homo, in a deplorable state, by Mr.
Utility, who also was pretty well “ steamed
up.” It is with pain that w« allude to this
shocking state of immortality now prevalent
among the rolling stock of the Cumberland
Valley Eailroad, and wo only do so in re
sponse to tho outraged ■ moral sentiment of
the community and the traveling public.

OUTRAGES BY NEGRO TROOPSHN MEM
PHIS—A RIOT THREATENED, ETC, ETC.
A negro, dressed in the uniform of an
United States soldier, with a bayonet on his
person, approached the stall of Mr. Lacroix,
in tiro South Market on Saturday evening,
between tho hours of 6 ond 7 o’clock, and
stealing a pioee of meat from the stand made
off with it and while attempting te escape
with it through a side door of tho market,
near tho stall, was overtaken and captured
by Jlr. Lacroix. Owing to tho excitement of
tho movement, and tho obstorperous conduct
of the negro, Mr. Lacroix picked up a cleav
er laying close by and, demanded tho stolen
meat from the negro, which was presistontly
refined by him; denying all the time that he
had stolon it, By this time a largo crowd of
negro soldiers had gathered about tho place,
some of them armed with revolvers and other
firearms, and one with a loaded hickory stick,
cvbout eighteen or twonnty inches in length,
which he had kept in his sleeve. Mr. Lacroix,
still holding tho nogeo in his posossion, sent
alter tho market master, Mr. James Ryan,
into whoso charge the prisoner was delivered.
Urged on by the clamor for rescue by tho ne
groes around him, tho prisoner pulled his
bayonet, and thrusting it indiscriminately in
every direction about him, was frequently
asked by Mr. Ryan to deliver up tho weapon,
but to uo purpose. Mr. Ryan, fearing that
somebody would bo hurt should tho weapon
remain longer in the hands of tho negro, whoso
conduct had by this time become utterly in
tolerable, attempted to get tho weapon by
persuasion, and failing in that, very property
dealt him several blows on tho head with tho
but of a pistol, which felled him to the ground,
though not rendering him insensible. At
this junotnro of affairs, Mr. Mower, of the
police force, arrived on tho spot, and witli
his assistance tho negro was taken nlongSonl
street, as far ns tho store of Alderman Book
tel, near St. Martin street, followed by a
largo orowd of citizens and negroes. At that
time the excitement along tho street ran high,
tho officers and prisoner survoundod-by a
large crowd, and began to assume rather
serious proportions. Tho officers hero urged
the negro to go in and deliver up his bayo
net to Alderman Bocktcl, and that gentleman
would guarantee him that ho should not in
any wise be hurt, Alderman Bocktcl, who
certainly had the right to receive the bayo
net from the soldier, being clothed with the
police powers of an alderman, did not ask
for the bayonet, but assured the negro that
no harm, would-be done him, if ho would on
ly go along peaceably and orderly with the
officer who had him under arrest. Some
eight or ten negro soldiers now made their
appearance, armed with muskets, and it is
believed considerably under the influence of
liquor, and demanded, with violent oaths and
threats, the release of the prisoner. This
the officers refused to de, and appealed to tha
citizens lor aid to prevent the rescue of their
prisoner. The negroes, led by a most de
praved lookiugcharaotor, who was afterwards
wounded in the hand, attempted an assault
upon tlio officers, and succeeded in releasing
the prisoner. The store tf Alderman Bock
tel had by this tune become somewhat crowd
ed with lookers-on, and customers who wore
unable, from the crowd outside, to make their
exit, thus afforded a gotfii opportunity, which
they did not fail to improve, for tbo officers to
escape the threatened violence offered against
their persons by the negro soldiers who wore
in the highest pitoh of excitement, from the
fact that some one fired a shot whioh one of
the negroes said took effect in his hand.—
They wanted Ryan, and rushed into the store
of Alderman Bcok'tol, who told them that the
officers were not there; the negroes knew
d-d well they wore there, and they wore go
ing to have them. Alderman Booktel told
them to look and satisfy themselves, whioh
they did, and not finding the officers, loft the
store.
Beal street was now deserted by white per
sons, and most of tho stores closed up. Tho
negroes, upon perceiving two .white persons
walking down on tho opposite side of the
street from Alderman Bocksl’s store, leveled
their muskets and fired .three or four shots
at them, compelling thorn to seek refuge in
tho store of Mr. Hollywood, which was im
mediately after burstod open and entered by
a squad of tho soldiers who insisted that the
officers were secreted in tho store and accor
dingly made search through every portion of
tho house. Not finding tho officers they re
turned to tho store of Alderman Becktcl, say
ing they know G-d d-d well tho officers were
hid in that store; but Alderman Becktel as
sured them that the officers had gone out tho
back way some time since. They then de
parted, and simultaneous with thoir depart
ure some three or four coats wero missed
from tho store. .It is known who took them.
This is the only case of robbery known to
have Declined. Again on tho street, they fired
or aro they determined to go on in their mat!
career until they produce a war of races in
every State of our Union ? Wo tell them, in
all sincerity, that it will be n sorry day lor
them if they succeed in the objects they ap
pear to have in yiow. For their own safety,
then, if for nothing else, wo warn them not
to tamper with the pooplo too long !

argument, and Lee was pardoned, and great
rejoicing followed in the Philadelphia “ Inyal

I had the pleasure ofattomling the conven
tion ol Delegates, from the different town
ships in Cumberland County, which was held
in Carlisle, on Friday, December -thh, for
the purpose of inaugurating measures for the
establishment of a vitato Normal School, in
the district composed of the Counties of Cum
berland, Adams, Franklin, Fulton, Bedford,
Huntingdon and Blair.
I was highly gratified to find so many able
men-, take such interest in the cause of pop
ular education. I'hieh delegate gave the
amount of interest manifested in his school
district, and I am uf the opinion, that the en
terprise, will receive the encouragement
which is ncccf-ary to place it upon, a linn
hmndathm, and in a short time, the people of
the ah'-ve named counties, will have the sat
bfacllmi of .-';cing reared in their midst, an
iiistituli n which will enahlo the young men
and ladict» receive a useful and practical
c lucati 01. The people of Penvmylvauiu from
ihc first settlement of the .State, have been
very attentive to the cause of education, and
this cause is continually gaining a stronger
hold .at the community. Public'sentiment
has demanded a higher standard of qualifi
cation in the teacher ; and,as a consequence,
Normal schools, expressly designed for their
instruction and training, have boon estab
lished. (Kail (ho institutions of instruction
for teachers, none have proven as benefi
cial, as the Normal methu 1. We had the
pleasure of attending the one located
in the b.rough of Xewvillea few years ago,
and, Trim what experience we had at that
-e-h'iol, we are prepared to defend the system.
Knowing wo do, the peculiar advantages
of Mich u -cho.*l, we hope t hat the pi emmt
• :r ■■•n;h-c, may receive the approbation and
em’di d support, of every lover of the present
Common .School System. \Vc hold the opin
ions of one of Die delegates from Carbide,
who took occasion to express himself in con
vention : “That the enterprise should bo
one of public good, and the buildings
sh-mld ho erected, and the school put in suc
cessful operation, by subscription and dona
tions, and not be allowed to bcSbmo the prop
erty of stockholders, whoso only interest
would he to declare a dividend in their fa
vor, perhaps every six months." The object
of die school, should ho to advance the cause
11f o.lncation, and not to make those who are
rich—richer. Knowledge and Virtue, are
regarded ;\s the main pillars of the republic,
ci. I the .ody way to promote the education
of the y l «u 1 1 », s'as to bring I hum un as urna
: meats io .-oclety, and to shun the many ave
nue-; ro vice ami immortality, is to give them
an edueithm which will qualify them for ac
tive mid hiidnM.s life. The individual who
would npn"m the moral and religious train

the abduction of his wife and her uunlino
uieut iu a lunatic asylum, on the plea that
she was insane and dangerous. By some
means 1.0 obtained tho certificates of two phy
sicians to that -effect, and, a few days since,
hud the police seized her, and, despite the

Mu. Stevens’ Position. --Throughout tho
whole of the late war, when tho rebels had
entire possession of from seven to ten States,
the Government and the people of the United
States maintained that those States wore still
in tho Union ; now that tho war is over and
the rebels have boon conquered "and their bo
gus governments displaced, and we have pos
session, it is proposed to consider those States
as out of tho Uniou- Tills is an absurd posi
tion, and yet it is the one that Mr. Stovons
desires to put the country in.— Vhila. Ledger.
