IVnducMlny, April 37.1570.
' - IOHBi AN A COBifSEIIipB
Ainong tlie eminent personages invited to
participate in the celebration yesterday was
State Senator Morrow B. Lowry. Senator
l*>wry could not accept the invitation, because,
as be declares, his ‘‘body will hardly bear
transportation East on the 26th of April.” It
» unnecessary to inquire why Mr. Lowry's
body should become suddenly frail on that
particular day.; this .phenomenon loses its in
terest in the presence of a much more remark
able spiritual manifestation. That part of
jjowry which is of the. eaith,
earthy may be . a dilapidated- rum,,
hnt his heavenly part is extremely lively and
energetic. He says his spirit will march on to
the great' celebration in the knapsack of John
Brown’s soul.” Whether this promise was
fnlfilled or not we cannot tell, because a spirit.
performing a pedestnanTfeat withih'the narrow
eonfines of a soul’s knapsack must necessarily
he imperceptible to -our .gross physieal sense.
At any rate we did not see it in the procession
yesterday. And it was perhaps a wise provi
sion of Providence that this miraculous visita
tioifwas not palpably present, for then some
ruthless member of Councils might have seized
Lowry’s spirit, knapsack and all, and held it in
horrid' limbo, leaving Lowry’s inanimate flesh
and blood corrupting on the shores of Lake
Erie, and so have,: accomplished something to
wards the purification of the State Legislature.
But-T,lietber IjO^ - r>vS:Spii : it_came or uot, his
letter of regret certainly did, and with it came
a mass of lame syntax, decrepid rhetoric,
jumbled-metaphor and bosh, which would se
cure the instant dismissal from the HigliSchool
of any boy‘over twelve years of age. The
gencr'al' design of the writer seems to have been |
to offer good counselto the colored people in
their hour of triumph. The spectacle of Lowry
acting as the spiritual and political adviser -of
__ the colored men who coiiducted the proceed
—ings of t his celebrationwould. be, .anyising un
der any circumstances, hut when his-advice
comes in the shape presented in this letter it is
so absurdly ludicrous that our laughter is min
gled with indignation at the thought that such an
ass is a prominent, politician in. the Republican
party in this State. Lowry first instructs the
colored people, as to the method by which their
emancipation was secured. His opinions upon
this subject are variable.' After asserting that
the negroes “owe nothing to mankind for theii
emancipation,”- he immediately exclaims, with
eckless carelessness of good rhetoric, that
“.InVmßon and liis policy real
was tbe Moses who not only led you throug
the Bed Sea, but also led you roilickingly into
Jefl. Davis’s seat in the Senate of the United
States.” A careful study of that word *‘rol
lickinely” induces us to believe that it was in
....tended for a joke on the name of lievels. It
can have no other bearing upon tbe subject;
and it is as fair a witticism as we have a right
to expect from Mr. Lowry even in his
best moments, when his body is in
good condition and he has his spirit at
home with him. When he gets the negro
race in Jeff. Davis’s seat, he gives it a choice of
a peimanent abode. ■ He tells the blacks that
“ hereafter they can make their beds as they
please, in heaven or hell, in time or eternity.
If we might be permitted to offer a suggestion
upon, tbe subject, we would recommend rejec
tion of the locality second named, as a place
of repose. If the colored people have access
to either of the others, the worst would be bet
ter than this, merely as a matter of personal
comfort, and without any reference to tbe in
finite probability of having Senator Lowry as
a hcd-fellow in the event of neglecting to fol
low our advice.
" ' Ttie domieiliary arrangements-for—thq race
having been discussed, the Senator then makes
oome'suggestions as to the dangers that lurk
beneath the ballot. The intimate familiarity
ivith stock which Mr. Lowry displays in his
adoption of bovine metaphors is extremely
creditable. He says:
•■1 beseech of you to let no man nor organ
ization of men sell you at the polls, like black
steers ill tbe fall, or purchase your manhood,
like- fit spotted heifers in the spring. It will
lead you to no greater wretchedness and crime
should you lu-rd together like cattle, than it
■will to be .driven like mules and voted at the
polls by the corruptionists ot any party. %
‘''Upon the subject of education Senator
•Lowry is equally emphatic and equally mixed.
He can speak with more feeling and force in
discussing this theme because he is a living_
examplar of the hurtful effects of neglect of
education. This very letter will impress every
colored man with the importance of learning at
least tbe rudiments of-a good education before
attempting to exercise the duties of citizenship.'
~ But, while we agree with Lowry’s general
theory of the excellence of learning, we protest
that it cannot he, at: one and the same' time,
“ manna tathe souL and a ’rainbow of hope,”
as Lowry declares In the following paragraph :
«< Education for yourself and for your chil
dren, for which you are so nobly struggling,
is manna to tbe souls of your old friends, am!
is yonr own and your country’s rainbow ol
hope.” , ' .
in conclusion this Senatorial Being urges the I
colored people to suicide. Why he should ex
pend so much' good advice and had grammai
upon them merely as an introduction to a re
commendation Jo self-destruction we cannot
imagine, unless indeed he is the enemy of the
race, and wishes to gain their confidence only
to crush them. The manner in which Lowry
voted with.the Democrats in the late Legisla
ture gives'acbldr of pi bbiibility to this suppo
sition of treachery, lie says to the negroes
v “the genial climate of the South, her rich'
waste lands, and her citizens are your truest
friends, and will draw thousands and thou
sands'of you back lo the tjrarex of your ances
tofu”, For this reason Lowry wants them to'
emigrate South.:, We doufetif the negroes care
'about testing in the graves of their ancestors,
even to oblige tlieir .frieiifl, Lowry, “’ft*®, afmr
all/may want to gift rid Pf them merclyjie-
ciiusn lie lias a strong suspicion that they -will
rever vote to place him lu power.
Seriously, Lowry made a great fool of him
self when he wrote this letter. Intrinsically it
is ridiculous. Its rhetoric and grammar entitle
the author to contempt; but its, deficiencies in
this respect are not half so offensive as its offer
of advice and patronage to the men who con
iliicifil the celebration ■•yesterday—men like
Robert Purvis and Frederick Douglass, wrho
have more brains and sense, and a better
knowledge of American politics, than Lowry
will have if be lives to the age of Moses.
WORK FOB TUB COLOBEO CITIZENS,
; Now that the constitution and the laws have
removed the great disabilities under which the,
/colored people in the United 1 States have
’labored, the white people ought to aid and
encourage them in their efforts to improve them—
selves morally and intellectually. It is a- fact
that custom arid prejudice shut out the riegro
from many important avenues rof industry.
This custom and prejudice were referred to
last evening in Frederick Douglass’s speech at
the Horticultural Hall meeting. !‘I take the
ground, ’’ said Mr. Douglass, “ that the higher
you. go up in ,the gradations of intelligence, re
finement, and culture, the furtheryou get from
prejudise of all kinds.-1 can easier, to-day,
get my son into a office, to study law,
than I can get him into a 1 blacksmith’s shop,
to hammer Iron. I can more readily get him
into a minister’3 library to study jfor the ministry
than into a carpenter’s shop to shove the jack,
plane; and I will tell you where our procession
got the loudest applause on,all its journey. It
was 7 id that pafr of city moSt " dis
tinguished for its opulence, its refinement, and
for its education-and culture, and just as we
went dowri'into those lower grades of society,
just there we found prejudice the most ma
lignant.”
It is not reasonable to expect that the preju
dice which shuts a black man from a work
shop, while he may be admitted to the bar,
the pulpit or the Senate, can he overcome im
mediately. But time will gradually remove it,
and- when experience .and observation shall
convince even the , ignoratit that the mote
workeistheie arc in a community, the better
for the community, the black man will be al
lowed to learn trades from which he is now ex
cluded. Let us-see, for a moment, bow few
occupations are open to colored men. in this
city of Philadelphia. We have colored barbers,
restaurant-keepers, caterers, waiters, coach
men, grooms, ostlers, hod-carriers, and day-la
borers. At certain seasons a few negroes
earn a little money by whitewashing. But
Ihe mechanical trades, by a knowledge ot
occupation and a steady
living can be - obtained, are nearly ail
forbidden tpJhe colored race. And yet a ne
gro, even if not Intellectual, would make a
good ' machinist,' carpenter,
shoemaker, tailor, brickinaker, mason, painter,
blacksmith, tinner f glazier, or locksmith, to say
nothing of scores of-other occupations. In the
South, during the old slave-days, many negroes
were taught these trades, and paid their mas
ters for the privilege of pursuing them. U nder
the regime of freedom they are permitted to
continue at their old.work. But the free no
itihiar are almost entirely
I_gte.es, , .
excluded from such occupation. There are
some engaged in tailoring, skbehiaking, &e;,for
people of their own race; but they have to keep
apart from the whites.
When it is considered that the sphere of
labor for the colored man is so very limited, it
can scarcely excite surprise that he is not
• always industrious or useful in the community.
Sometimes it happens that the few branches of
labor open to him are prostrated or the busi
ness of them is depressed. He cannot then
turn to other occupations, as a white man, in
similar circumstances, can generally do; and
it may happen that he is then driven to vice,
crime or vagrancy, and brings up in the prison
or the almshouse. The fault, in such cases, is
often less with the nian than with the system
which forbids him to have an equal chance of
earning a decent living \*ith the white man.
No one who looked at thd men in the proces
sion, yesterday, can doubt that most o r f them
would make good workers at almost any qf
the ordinary trades jwhieh are now confined to
white men. Having done so much, of late
years, for' the removal of . the' political disabili
ties of the negro, the attention of reformers
and’of "all'good" citizens -who-believe in- the em.
couragement of industry in every way, should
be turned to removing the disabilities that still
prevent him from working on a par with white
workers.
THE NEXT LEGISLATURE.
Next winter tlie Pennsylvania Legislature
will have to perform the double duty of appor-
Honing the State into both Congressional and
Legislative districts, and we have heard it said
that a like coincidence will not occur again for
seventy years. The State Legislative apportion
ment occurs every seven years; the Con
gressional every ten years. They come to
gether in 1871. In view of this, it is very im
portant that the next Legislature should be
branches. The
Democrats are, of course, very anxious to
secure a majority of the members, and, in order
to prevent this, the Republican voters in each
district must use eveiy effort to have good men
nominated-for the Legislature.
It is already boasted, by some of the worst
of our city Representatives at the last session,
that the clamor recently raised against them
will die out, and that they will be renomiuated.
They believe or hope that, being-renominated,
they will be re-elected, because, the party, in
view of the two apportionments, will stick to
Lhe regular nominations. In this they will be
mistaken. None of the men who assisted.in
carrying the obnoxious measures of the last
I session deserve to be re-elected, and none of
them can be. The people and the press of the
city should continually express' this view, and
keep alive the indignation that was oxcited
while the late session lasted.
But we must cany the next Legislature, and
the way to make this certain is to nominate
none but good candidates:-Of course, in-doing
this,’ all'the unworthy men of the last Legisla
ture must be defeated in the nominating con
ventions. Money and trickery will be resorted
to by many men to secure nominations. But
if, under the auspices of the Union League,
or through any other .agency, a good candidate
can be 'secured in each district, we shall not
only retain the numerical ascendancy of the
last session, and perhaps add, to It, but we shall
secure a delegation that will much more

Itnllnn Opera. I
The Brignoli Opera Company presented the I
Barber of Seville ,at the Academy of Music, I
last night, and gave a very pleasant and satis
factory performance. Miss McCulloch par- I
ticularly deserves warm praise for her persona- |
tion of “ B osina.” She not only sang the .
rapid and difficult music of tho part in a most
artistic manner, hut her acting was graceful
and elegant.' Dpon herjtjist appearance here I
this season a vefjT’ffiSrked improvement was
perceptible in this artist, hut we think this
performanae decidedly the best of any she has
yet. given. It displayed vooal
gifts to good advantage, and proved
ihe excellence ~of her training. Signor
•Petrilii also'won honors in Bis personation ]
of the “ Barber.” He sang the music very
nicely, and he acted the part in a manner
which would have done credit to any of the
greater and more famous artists who have
nttiwpted it. His singing of the “ Largo al
fuctotvm,” if not' completely original, was at
least excellent. Sign or Brignoli appeared as
“Count Aimaviva” and sang deliciously.

fSveetel Despatch to the Plilta. Eicumu Bulletin.]
W-AsimitiTON, April 27.—The advocates of
the re-election of Mayor Bowen are doing
their utmost to secure his renomlnatlon by the
. Republican Convention, and in order to bring
this About tiiey aro resorting to all manner of
schemes and offering every inducement in
their power to .those who exert any consider
able influence In the different wards. Colonel
Forney has a labored editorial in the Chronicle
to-day; begging the Republicans pitifully not
to throw Bowen • overboard, and claim
ing that he has the full confidence
of the Administration. The local excitement
> over the approaching election is running very
high, hut the most careful observers do not
doubt that the result will end Id a complete
change in the administration of the city
offices, and a reform Republican candidate.
will be elected over Bpwen by a handsome
majority. The, entire city press, with the
single exception of the Chronicle, advocates
change 'from the present City Hall Bing,
which has been unscrupulous in the expendi-
ture of Money, getting- tho city so largely
in debt that its financial paper is offered
on thC market at a very heavy discount. (

Nett York, April 27.—The attendance at

withstanding —the —announcement that to- - .

that extraordinary developments would be

Recorder Hackett Is much better.
_ The Conrt opened at 11 o’clock, and the_fat-_

poned to examine Mr. Diven, the night watoh- -
man of the Tombs,. who. deposed that in the

have-visltedinsane-asylums-abroad. I have
seen forty thousand insane people, and have
hccoine familiar ' with eight hundred or a
thousand cases. In the prisoner’s case,
the symptoms' I observed in " him
may be the remnants of a severe
congestion of long standing; taking this as a
basis of fact, I am of the opinion that at the
time of the commission of the act the prisoner
was insane. The commission of the act might
have been due to the sudden appearance of the
man Richardson.
/ The steamships China, from Liverpool, and
Alaska.froin Asplnwall, arrived here this
nriorning. „ ,
/ He went over the, testimony of the witness
who saw the prisoner on the 2-jth of Novem
ber, 1809. Taking this all together, I. should
J' ’ je that the maniacal state had been on Me
land before the commission of the act, and
of such a nature that it would have ex
led at the appearance of Richardson. The
witness gave instances of temporary insanity
A case is.on record where a man invited his
friends to dinner, and rose suddenly in the
middle of the repast, asking his guests to ex-,
cuse him, and went into an adjoining room
and cut bis throat.
gXTbe history of the treatment of insane peo
ple was gone into. It has changed entirely
witbin tb« past twenty years. . The object now
is to reclaim the soul, and it lias been attended
with success. , ’
Tne differefice between temporary insanity
and passion was gone into, lu.an act of pas- ,
sion the perpetrator would try to get away
immc(liately._ln-teinponiry.,insunity..he.wpuhl r
take no pains to conceal himself. The fact oi
Mr. McFarland's going to a well-known hotel
arid there registering his real name,
without any attempt at conceal
ment, would bring liis ease up to my
• standard oftemporary insanity.
Temporary Congestion was then defined. It
often-prodticfe death. Where it does not it
might produce mania, or it might be Cured.
A caso \vas cited of a man seized with a sud
den mania, and had stopped at a railway sta
tion. He had eaten his dinner hurriedly, and
•when begot iiitb the ears lie was seized,with
a sudden n't-of-inaniti and attempted to injure
himself and every one,about him.-
I)r. Hammond was cross-examined at some
• length by ,Judge Davis as to' the different
stag* of insanity defined. The. witness took
the ground that the accused’s mi (id was dis
eased, and that that was tile cause of liis .
shooting Richardson. ■. , . '

Tuesday, ArriJ 26.—The news concerning the Fund-/
ing bill ec« rued all hesitation concerning the
tranter of capitt\to government bond*, and the leading
houses report a buHnesfl of several millions to day as the
result of a demand from savings institutions, the banks
generally, private capitalists and on speculative ac
count. The government market was the scene of great
activity in late dealings, and tho which are the
most indicative of lb? course of prices* rose to 111?*.
1 here are a uuu-.ber ». reports concerning tho intention
of the government during tbe months of May and June
as to tbe extent of tbe bqud purchases in closing up tlio
fisciil yeur, bnt their extravagance deprives them of all
color of probability. The advance in prices the last two
daja is the nataiarresult of,the effort of idle.capital to .
eanrsix'poreeiitrgold when in tho usaal cU&nuols it'
commands only four to five per cent. ,
The mouey market worked with extreme oase,and all
transactions above five per cent; were purely excep
tional. The prevailing rates were four to five per cent.,
with exceptions \*jt the leading Government dealers at
s three per cent. At the close ihe banks wore offering
. large amounts at lour per cent. Commorcißl was t in

'I he TnrJir—'the Datyan Iron.
Washington, April . 27.—The Ways and
Means Committee have evidently become
alarmed at the action of 'the House in refusing
to increase the dHty on the various grades of
iron. A full meeting was held this morning,
and, after a discussion, the Committee decided,
to strike out all those sections in the Tariff
bill, not already Considered by the House, re- -
: la ting to iron; which propose an increase of
the duty now imposed by law. This course
was advised by the leading protectionists for
fear that the House would reduce the duty on
the various kinds of iron if the bill xontinued
ft contain sections open to dmeudmont.
The bill,as modified this morning by the Com
mittee, does not propose any increase in the
tariff on ir<3n7 butleaverthe preseiit~law un
changed.

Tbe McFarland Trial*
[Continued from Btcond Edition.]
By Judge Davis—Bow, Doctor, supposing
before or after the shooting a man had m ule
an arrangement to go to a strange hotel; had
arranged to meet a brother or a friend there;
had gone to the hotel and registered his name;
the friend or brother came there after the
shooting; both going up stairs together—
would you see in such an act evidence of in
sanity?
Answer.—lf the arrangements .had been
_made.before.the shooting_it-wonldhave:been
premeditation. [Sensation.]
• Q—lt the arrangements had been made
after? •
A.—l can .hardly. nay,.. Emotional insanity
is a very dangerous stage.
Judge Davis—lt is a common case for a man
who receives an insult, -which he thinks can
only be wiped out by blobd, for him to commit
murder, and then go and deliver himself up.
litvenge is the fruit of anger. Have you (le
| scribed the prisoner’s temperament as naturally
excitable—naturally belligerent V
Dr. Hammond—tea. i
Judge Davis—Suppose we. begin with his
youth. He was excitable—liable to be thrown
into a frenzy diEslight causes. Now, supposi ng'
he thought he had received afflujury—allowed
such an idea -to carry him away—would not
cherishing that idea produce symptoms of
congestion of the brain ?
Answer—Yes. The nourishing of anger
would make him insane. The man who has
cherished feelings of anger for a long time
would he liable to fits of insanity.
The witness was questioned as to the state
of the mind of the prisoner on the day of the
shooting.
Answer—His appearance would indicate
insanity under certain circumstances, which
would amount to nothing, it often occurs
that when a. person is laboring under insanity
keeper. It sometimes happens that he waits
for years and kills his foe. He saw' nothing
inconsistent-withiusauityinaman folio wing
up the object of revenge, and, finally killing
him.
He further testified as to the condition of
. ' the prisoner whenex&minedbytbe witness in
the Tombs. His pulse ran up-to-148. I testi
“titfd-i m the case or that he wasstiam--:
mingV and also in the case ot Chambers, but it
is a difficult thing to tell. whether a man is
shamming.

method of doing business.
Mr. Cox .wanted t.o_know when the Goueral
Amnesty bill would be brought in. He depre
cat ed this niggardly manner of dispensing the
Federal pardon. This bill,' like others
