' What Became | Carthage and its dependent territory, there were many nergoes captured who were slaves to the whites of Africa. These were carried to Rome and sold there. After that period there were always numbers of black slaves in the city and its immediate neighborhood, There as long as the empire lasted. { the number of thousands of these ne- eroes in Rome; but from the inciden- tal mention’ made of them in the Latin authors, they must have been quite nu- {merous. In the century from their | first importation to the end of the em- | pire, there must have bean at least, 1,000,000 brought into Italy, though this ts-must-probably but a very mod- | erate estimate. ‘These must have mix- | ed in with the white race to such an extent that under the empire there | must have been many mulattoes, | What has becom: of this negro | blood?

The theory that it might have | been 20 dilutad with white blood as to | be at this time untraceable, is simply absurd ; for every one who has stueied tha subject of raza, or observe l the ef- fect of mixture, knows that the origi- nal type, if it exists at all, will erop | up from time to time In a most unmis- to the thou- | I tnkable manner, down sundth generation, | In Lgypt there were also immense | numbers of slaves imported from the | nesro tribes on its borders, fron the | days of the early munuments down to present time. Bat, though there ex- 1st a few mulattoes, descen led from the Cimportations of the last two hundred vears, yet, among the bulk of the in rypt, there are no traces i oro blood Indeed, constderinz the larze number of slaves | : [in I habitants of 5 whatever of n 0 appt, at all times, this freedom | from admixture in that country is even | much more remarkable than in the | case of Italy. | There is one way of accounting for | these facts, and but one, and thatis, | that so different are the Caucasian and | Afrieen races that they cannot be | permanently mingled together. The mixture produces a being which, if not La partial hybrid is, at least, a subject | to diseasa tht it can be propagated to | but a few generations, when it dies out. i We sce this tendency in this country almost forcibly shown in small number of desendants of mulattoes. Now and | then we see a quadroon, in Virginia, | very seldom ap octoroon, and beyond | that degree the blood can not be said to exist at all. It is this tendency of the mongrel to die out that has destroyed all traces of negro blood among the Indians and Egyptians. Those of them who were sprung from negroes died out many centuries ago, leaving the original stock as perfectly pure as if there had never been an African imported into either Romeor the kingdom of the Pharaohs. And thus will it be in the South. Not only will the pure negro race van- ish from the earth in the course of a few generations, from causes which must make even the slightest admix- ture of blood will be left among us; the same effects will result in the South as in Italy and Egypt, and there will not be left a trace, save in history, of the African race having ever existed in Amr en. emp lye fp meee Grant TriuMPHANT.—AS we pre- dicted, Grant, aided by the bread and butter brigade, has triumphed over the Senate—the committee of that body to whom was recommitted the bill to re- peal the tenure-of-office law having re- ported a bill yesterday which met the pleasure of his excellency, and which was immediately passed by the Senate. “Now, by St. Paul, the work goes bravely on.” | tte pe A Chicago doctor has been fined fifteen dollars for trying to kiss a mar- ried woman, and her husband was mulected five dollars for thrashing the doctor.

There are few subjects that have been productive of such an amusing amount of song, satire and moralizing as the startling mutations in female attire. Yet, notwithstanding tAe*vio- lence and point by which the attacks may have been characterized, the love- ly votaries of the fickle goddess Fash. ion, have ever been inflexibly faith- ful to their mistress, and have invari- ably vanquished all opposition. Wo- man is not inaptly defined by an an- cient cynic to be “an animal that de- lights in finery ;” and the ancient man- ifestations of fashion seem to prove it. In almost every age of the world’s his- tory it has been a preplexing problem to decide how much the belle of the | period owed to nature and how much to art. Apparently we are as far re- moved from a satisfactory solution of | the question as our ancestors. The mis- | tery that now adays attaches to every | portion of the female figure, where bold | and swelling curve are desirable, is positively paralyzing in its perplexity. | Paniers, bends, chignons, pads and the thousandand one contrivances by which | Broadway beauties are made up, ren- | most curiously interesting animal in | creation. Ivery successive daring in- | novation is received with tumultuous | hisses by amazed bachelordom, joined | in chorus to the shrill eracking of what are known as strong minded females; her | but the goddess having set up image and fulminated her decree, the | and rejoicing. Similarly fared our forefathers; and the sober matron, who | clasps her hands and wonders what the world is coming to, as she heholds : . | | | : : | a precious Miss on high heels, tottering | along the street under a bend called | Grecian, may rest assured that horri- | ble as these freaks of folly may seem, matters were quite as bad, if not worse, a century ago. The monstrous farth { ingale and ruff of Queen Bess have never been fairly equalled in volume | by any modern combination of hoops Land skirts, ticles of a modern belle's attire, we With respect to other ar- propose to show from quaint old obser- vers that in almost every particular our great, great, great grandmothers, in the matter of aggravated extrav- agance, were decidedly ahead of us, Take the last perplexing contortion —the Grecian bend—for example; and we find from various stinging illu- sions or satirists and caricaturists of the period, that it raged in all its ungain- ly deformity in 1753; and that women then reduced themselves as nearly the shape of monkeys as possible. Writing of fashions in France, the Countess of Wilton delicately says: “It excites entertainment to know that inventions for increasing the size of the female figure behind were common under the last Princ: of Valois.” While in England, at the same time, the dresses of the ton are described as— “Bouncing behind— with flounces in rows, Puff and pucker up knotson your arms and your toes.” It seems curious that the artificial posterior hump should have rendered enormously high heeled boots then as now an essential portion of dress. But so it seems, as the following extract from a versifier in the Salisbury Jour- nal of 1754, will show : “Mount on French heels when you go to a ball, "Tis the fashion to totter and show you can fall.” Another observant chronicler of the same period gives some additional par- ticulars. He says, “they wear their shoes high, both painted and patched,” while still another rhymer almost ac- curately describes the pedestrian at- tempts of modern ladies of fashion in the lines, “Tottering like the fiir Chinese— Mounted high and buckled low Tottering every step they go.” A clever satire in the London Mag- azine three years later, 1777, indicates that some modifications had been effec- ted in the fashions, and that in fact they were more preposterously absurd than in 1753.—Albion.

They committed many murders and out rages heretofore, always escaping pun- ishment. Upon hearing of the mur- ders of the traders, General Davis pros ceeded in the steamer Saginaw to the neighborhood of the tribe. Finding it deserted, he ordered their villages burned, the tribe was frightened. Davis does not anticipate any serious trouble and feels master of the situation. The steamer Saginaw is to be fitted out, and will proceed again to the neighborhood of the Kakes to further punish them if the murderers are not surren- dered.

Inquiries were everywhere made as to the truth of the rumors, They were doubtless based on the in- telligence previously received of the alarming condition of his health, a private telegram having represented he was dangerously ill last night; but a dispatch dated this evening says that the ex-President’s condition isnow very much better. & pO Governor Geary A Liar.

Governor frauding the people, and he new recom- mends the ratification of an amend- ment to the Constitation of the United States, which will force Negro Suffrage upon this State without giving the people any voice on the matter, Governor Geary said so more than a hundred times during the canvass, but so did the Republican party. Not a man of them ever intended to keep their word. re ly el Ry The Senate of Bhode [sland has re- fused to ratify the suffrage amend- ment to the Federal Constitution. The object of the Senate was to post- pone action until the May meeting of the legislature. In the meantime there is to be an election of a new leg- ‘slature by the people. The example of Rhode Islan is lost on the radi- cals of Pennsylvania. Rhode Island has adopted negro suffirge for herself long a ago, but er legislature is not willing to ratify an amendment which affects other States without aclear ex- pression of the sentiments of the peo- ple. The radical cravens in the Penn- sylvania legislature dare not even sub- mit the question of amending the State Constitution to the people. Oil > — Gov. Baker, of Indiana, on Mon- day, issued a proclamation convening the Legislature of that State, in spe- cial session on the 8th of April. The election for members who resigned to prevent the perpetration ofthe negro suffrage fraud, took placeon Tuesday, and all those who resigned were re- elected by the people, as a token of approval of their course taken in the Legislature. - : i at The engineers of the Pennsylvania RR., Middle Division, have been or- dered to make a survey and estimates of the probable cost of laying a third track.
