The United States Supreme Court
consists of one Chief Justice, namely,
Morrison It. Waite, of Ohio, and
eight Associates, as follows : Ward
Hunt, X. Y., S. Blatchford, X. Y.,
Stanley Matthews, Ohio, Samuel F.
Miller, Iowa, Joseph P. Bradley, X.
J., William B. Woods, Ala., Stephen
J. Field, Cal., John M. Harlan, Ky.
Eight of the nine judges joined in a
decision, declaring the civil rights
bill, as passed by Congress unconsti
tutional. The Dth Judge, Judge
Harlan, dissents from the decision.
A single act may make, or unmake a
man in the mind of a Xation, and so
jn this case. Judge Harlan's dissent
Las placed him in ft commanding
place before the American people.
In a day he has become the foremost
man in the Republic, as a Republican
candidate for the Presidency in 188-1.
In hrn the country will find a man
who is in accord with the ideas or
system of citizenship that was, or
should have been settled by the bat
tie with slavery. As a decision, the
opinion of the Court will have to
rtand, until, the same civil rights
that were ruled out, shall Lave leen
brought, by future legislation, or
amendment, to a proper standing be
fore the Supremo Court Judge
Harlan stands clearly before the
country, as an earnest opponent, of
a movement that seems to be direct
ed against the national citizenship of
the race, that, within the past 2-5
years Lave been rescued from bon
dage. Sumner's dying request was
T5ave the civil rights bill." The on
ly mind on the Supreme Bench that
is in accord with the mind of Sum
ner, as to the changed condition of
the race, so recently out of a 6tate of
slavery is the mind of Judge Harlan.
There is no telling where the reac
tionary revolutionary movement will
stop if backed by an old school Dem
ocrat in 1884.- They always declar
ed, that all the war legislation, and
all the reconstruction legislation was
unconstitutional and now they ex
press the deepest satisfaction with
the decision of the Supreme Court.
The membership of the Republican
party has been put upon the verge
of demoralization in the house of its
friends, and it will go into the battle
of 1881 half defeated unless it le led
by a pronounced man such as Judge
Harlan has proved himself to be.
Dish. :.rsT claim agents are to be
liuntcil up.
Thk Democracy carried Ohio by a
majority vote of 12,.29.
What a shriek will go np when the
bills for the extra session are hand
ed in.
The Knglish are safe in their pos
session of Egypt, for the False Proph
et Las lecu defeated, away in the in
terior of the country by an army of
Egyptians.
Objection is made to the new Pos
tal Notes, for the reason 'that any
person coming into possession of one
can collect it by simply signing Lis
name upon the face of the note."
JrRTicE Harlan, is one of the old
school Republicans that believes that
the civil rights bill is constitutional.
If he is the salt of the Republican
party, why not run him for the Pres
idency in 1881.
Governor-elect, Hoaplt, of Ohio,
evidently, believes that outside of
the Buckeye State some good may
be found, for he is now in PLiladel
under the treatment of a Philadel
phia d jctor. It would be a joke if
the Philadelphia doctor should turn
out to be an Ohio man.
If the Supreme Court could get
off a decision that the colored man
has no standing in the courts, and
that he has no rights that a white
man is bound to respect, the judicial
branch of the government would be
just as far on as it was when Sump
ter was fired on.
The colored folks don't like the
decision of the Supreme Court on the
civil rights bilL The court simply
sends the question of civil rights
back to the States. TLe question of
civil rights is like tLe question of
slavery, not a State question, but a
National question, therefore, in tLe
recent decision of tLe court, Low
near Las it come, indirectly, to an
nouncing tLe old doctrines of States
rights.
SrPEBSTmous people will find food
for reflection in tLe statement, that
"Judge Foraker's unlucky day is Oc
tober 9th. On that date, wben a
chiltl, he fell from a neighbor's apple
tree and broke Lis shoulder blade.
On tLe 9th of October, while in the
army, he fell from a horse and lay in
tLe hospital a month. On the 9th of
October, 187C, Le lost an important
suit at law ; and on the 9th of Octo
ber, 1S83, he lost the Governorship
of Ohio."
The colored men should not be
come frightened over the decision of
the United States Supreme Court
The court certainly did not intend to
open the door to the way back slav
ery, as a number of people seem to
interpret the decision. If we under
stand the decision, it means that
Congress shall not provide a process
of law, or shall not make laws for
the protection of property, life and
liberty, down in the States. The
States are bound under the constitu
tion to do that
The Supreme Court sends ' the
question of civil rights back to the
States. The States then, according
to the court, is the place to settle the
rights of a colored person, in a hotel,
a theatre, a railroad train, or any
thing else. Suppose a State should
pass a law to enslave the colored
man, what then ? Has the colored
man sufficient standing in the United
States Supreme Court to get a ver
dict in Lis favor under tLe constitu
tion against a State for such an in
fringement upon civil, or natural
rights ? Pennsylvania several years
ago abolished the word "white" from
her constitution, she protects the
colored people in traveling, and she
has abolished the separate school
system.
Self-Destruction.
The individual who destroys him
self is rather to be compassionated
than criticised and reproached. The
public can never know what appar
ently unendurable ills preceded such
an act, when the act is admitted by
the best informed to be unaccount
able. Suicide, in its most inexplica
ble aspects, is one of the problems
that must be unsolvable to the end
of time. The nnhappy victims do
not return to explain. Of the men
tal processes which go before such
rashness we can only guess intelli
gently It is common to Lear men
say that on a certain occasion they
deliberated on suicide. The fact
that they deliberated is pretty good
evidence that they have no informa
tion to impart which can throw the
slightest light on the matter.
But society lays heavy burdens on
its votaries. It has created a Lost of
artificial wants, and set up a host of
conventions, and prescribed a host
of tests, all of which urge men and
women onward in a course in which
the smallest accident may conduct
the traveller to the dizzy verge of the
gulf. The average man no longer
knows the meaning of ''enough."
Enough is practically abolished from
the knowledge of tens of thousands.
The man of abundant means often
thinks he has not enough. He wants
to make a new departure in some
way, and he may possibly venture all
upon the cast of a die. If he suc
ceeds, Le is regarded as either a pro
foundly sagacious or a lucky man.
But suppose he fails ? He may Lave
pluck to begin anew. But if he bo
a man of proud spirit, Le may deem
death the easier rcniedv. But even
these vicissitudes do not account for
a tithe of the mysterious suicides.
The minds of hundreds are unhinged
by too much strain, and it is but a
question of a second of time whether
the desire to escape the never-end
ing labor of puch a life may not ex
tinguish the love of life itself.

Dr. White Before Synod.
Among the business matters for
the Tresbyterian Synod, that recent
ly convened at Pittsburg, was that of
receiving repoi ts of the work done
down in the respective Presbyteries
that constitute the Synod. Of
course, when tiie record oi Hunting
don Presbytery was brought before
the committee that Synod had ap
pointed to receive and report on the
records cf the respective Presby
teries, the action of Presbytery in
Rev. Mr. White's case Lad to be con
sidered and reported to Synod, and
tLe Synod must needs give an ex
pression favorable or unfavorable, to
the reports of committees.
The records of Huntingdon Pres
bytery were satisfactory, accepting
in the case of Dr. White. The com
mittee said :
The committee on records of Presbyter
of Huntingdon report recommending their
approval, with the following exception : In
the case of the Rev. John V. White, pages
95 and 125, the Presbytery erred in that, af
ter having carefully and patiently tried and
convicted this brother of grave departures
from the (aith and doctrine of the church,
they permitted him to withdraw from the
Presbytery without censure while a motion
to suspend him from the Presbytery was
pending. The Presbytery should have in
flicted such censure as the grave errors of
this pastor demanded, according to the dis
cipline of the Presbyterian church. In tak
ing this exception, the Synod appreciates
the motives which manifestly influenced the
members of the Presbytery in dealing aa they
did with their co-presbyter and the extreme
gentleness and forbearance which manifestly
pervaded their course towards him. But
their departure from the strict constitutional
mode of procedure must not be accepted as
a precedent. The Synod the more contents
itself with a single exception in view of the
healthy stand (or orthodoxy and tor ad hear
ance to our standards which Presbytery
took in the case, and which is specially
commended by the Synod.

Committee.
When all the reports of the com
mittees on records were in and the
Synod came to make up a general re
port reviewing the 6tate of the church
within the limits of Synod it found
the state of religion to be quite sat
isfactory. Even the ruling of Hun
tingdon Presbytery against the
teaching of Dr. White was made the
Bource of religious congratulation, as
may be learned from the following
deliverance of the Synod :
So tar as can be learned, the truth in the
purity of ill constitution as found in our
standard was never preached with greater
power and acceptance than it has been
through the length and breadth of the Syn
od during the past year. The notable ex
ceptions to this rule in the Presbytery of
Huntingdon have only served to emphasise
the unswerving orthodoxy of that Presby
tery and all its sisters without exception.
It is a matter of common congratulation
that with such remarkable unanimity, firm
ness and charity that Presbytery has expur
gated its fair fame, and the Synod of which
it is a part, for the fidelity to the troth un
der the Westminster standards. The strong
hold of Freshyterianism in America is in
the State of Pennsylvania, Hanked on eith
er side by its two great Presbyterian cities,
one of them the largest and the other ot
them the most conservative in the world,
and there is ample reason to believe that
loyalty to its doctrinal standards was never
so intelligent, so free, so lull, so enthusias
tic as it is to-day throughout the whole
domain.

Chicago, October 25. A well-at
tended meeting of colored citizens
wns held last nignt lor tne purpose
of protesting against the recent de
cision of the Supreme court on the
civil rights bill. Rev. W. Polk, pas
tor of the church in which the meet
ing was held, said in the course of
his remarks: "This decision is an
insult to our race. I have always
been a good Republican, but now I
lielieve we should give our allegiance
to tuat party wnicn win give us our
rights, even if it runs the devil's ticb

The Philabelphia Times of the 21st
inst, pays : A system which permitted
the granting of 38,958 new pensions
in the fiscal year of 1882-S3, nearly
eighteen years after the close of the
war, must be seriously at fault some
where. During all days of loose laws
and still looser construction of them
it scarcely seems probable that these
cases were not presented and consid
ered. let tne period lor making ap
plications has been extended from
time to time until hundreds of the
victims of disease or their heirs Lave
shrewdly concluded that they might
as well trace their Uifhculhes to the
war and be paid for them, whatever
may have been the real situatiou. As
there are almost uncounted thousands
of additional applications for pensions
it is impossible for the imagination to
conceive where the business may fi
nally end.
The Everett Press, of last Wed

ered on the east track on the Balti
more & Ohio Railroad in the north
era surburbs of the town by the en
gineer of the Mt Pleasant Accommo
dation as L rounded a short curve.
It was too late even to sound a wins
tie of warning. The pilot struck the
little crowd of pedestrians and scat'
I Ural it like chaff before the wind.
The train was stopped at once and
the dead and dying victims gathered
up and taken to town, where their
relatives resided. The children bad
been walking out. and Lad just step
ped off the west-bound track to avoid
a passing freight train, when they
were caught by the east-bound pass
enger and met their sad fate.
The Portland. Maine, Argus, of the
24th inst., said : There is a young
man in this town who claims to be
Charlie Ross. He is about 18 years
old, tall and slim, good looking, dark
brown hair, tending to curl, fine fore-
hoad and eyes.
This young man came here from
Boston four weeks ago. He intend
to save money to take him to Phila
delphia, to rail on Mr. Ross. He
rememliers living in a large Louse,
being taken way by two men ia a
carriage, being put on a vessel and
taken to interport, Maine, where
he was kept in a dark room three or
four years. Inuer close surveill
ance he left the room occasionally,
and was not abused by his captors.
There were other children in the
house, but he rarely saw them, and
was not allowed to play with them.
After staying there several years he
was carriod on a vessel to Brazil.
On this voyage he learned he was
stolen by Jesse James, the Davisons
and Pinkham. In Brazil Le eluded
his captors and worked bis passage
back to this country on a ship. Since
then he has been at sea, most of the
time serving as cook. He can read
little and cannot write. If he stavs
here he intend to go to evening
school and obtain an education.
A Boy's Remarkable Stomach.
Washinotox, D. C, October 21. The
Star publishes au a-jcouut of an au
topsy held in this city Thursday
night on the body of a boy named
Elmer Beach, aged about ten and a
half years. Some time ago he was
taken with a swelling on the stomach,
which continued to increase. Re
cently he has been going about as
usual, although swollen much be
yond Lis normal proportion. Wed
nesday he was out on the street and
Thursday at 2 o'clock p. m., he died.
Twenty-five or thirty doctors exam
ined him before his death and none
of them could tell what caused the
remarkable swelling. The autopsy
was not made by the coroner, but
was a private one, and there were
several physicians and surgeons pres
ent among them Dr. J. B. G. Cus
ter, of East Capital street, one of the
attending physicians. A Star re
porter called on Dr. Custer yester
day afternoon to learn the result of
the autopsy. "The immediate cause
of death," said the doctor, "was ob
struction in the bowels. The case
will attract the attention of medical
men, because the obstruction was in
the small intestines not down in the
usual place, but higher up. Anoth
er remarkable fact is that his intes
tines were immensely enlarged. There
was taken from them twenty large
seeds of damsons, a copper cent, a
nickel, a tooth, two buttons and oth
er indigestible articles. His liver
was swelled to such a size that it
took the place of the lungs and near
ly everything else and one of Lis kid
neys was greatly displaced Alto
gether it is a remarkable case, and I
do not think fiere is another one on
record like it." The mother of the
boy state that some time ago he was
taken with vomiting and vomited a
Inrge worm that hi I protuberances
like horns and legs. A gentleman
borrowed it to examine it, anil never
returned it. He also vomited some
orange seeds that had been in his
stomach so long that they had sprout
ed. A thorough examination of the
case will be made and the result pub
lished iu a medical journal.
An Adventure in Gotham.
General V. D. Grouer. of Norfolk,
who has been stopping iu the city a
few days, was approached by bunco
men on Broadway, but they failed to
victimize him. "I had been to the
ofllce of one of my acquaintances,"
said the General to a Mail and im
press reporter, "and after transact
ing some business started up-town
to nir hotel. I had walked but a
few yards when I was tapped lightlv
on the shoulder, and looking around
I saw an old and respectable -looking
man who extended his band and said:
'Excuse me, sir. but I think I know
you. lou are, 1 oeiieve, tne tnira
engineer on the Pennsylvania Rail
road. I looked at the old person a
moment iu surprise and politely in
formed him that he was mistaken.
It's curious,' he said ; you bear such
a close resemblance to the gentle
man I refer to that I would swear
you are none other. It's rarely I
make such a mistake, ho saying lie
again asked my pardon and turned
away. I lion, as n ue naa iorgoiten
something he stopped, and, walking
up to me he added, 'Since you look
so much like my lriend, will you be
kind enough to tell Jiie your name?
I om the engineer of the Brooklyn
bridge.' I thought by this time that
the stranger was net exactly square,
and to get rid of him I told him that
my name was Tompkins and that I
owned a tobacco warehouse in Kicn
niond. He then disapwared. A
few minntes later I was stopped by
a little Irishman, who, grasping my
hand, said : 4 ny, Tompkins, old
boy, how do yon do T What brings
you here and how are things work
ing in the factory! lou know I
U6ed to work for you V
"I told him I was enjoying usually
good health considering the change
able condition of the weather and
that tilings were booming in the
warehouse at Richmond. This seem
ed to ploase him greatly and then he
wanted me to go into a little office
and do him the favor of identifying
him, as he had struck luck iu a lot
tery. 'Before we go," said I, 'let us
take a drink.' 'Certainly, Mr. Tomp
kins, certainly ; with the greatest of
pleasure,' he replied, his month wa
tering at the prospect of free whisky.
Well, to cut the story short, we en
tered a saloon. Before we drank,
however, I said, 'Be kind enough to
put both your Lands on my hips be
hind. There you will feel two of the
prettiest little Derringers that ever
a man carried, and remember, too,
that I am a dead shot'
"The fellow," continued the Gen
eral, "gave one look at me and one
at the bar and then shot out of the
door like a flash. I don't take nny
bunco ia mine." New York Mail
