The special order for '4 O’clock—a conSId-
eration of the railroad bill—was on motion
taken up at this time (3.30) there being no
other business upon the table. _It Was agreed
to discuss all questions concerning railroads
in two bills, but the bill proper—the one
which was made the special order—provides
that whenever complaint of exorbitant
charges for freight is made to the general
railroad commissioners, they shall bear the
parties, and shall make regulations to correct
grievances if the complaint is sustained;
then the railroad company may appeal to
any judge Of the Superior Court not residing
in the count where the complainant resides;
if new regu ations are still established, the
, company may goback to the railroad com-
missioners, and there may be another appeal
as aforesaid, etc. The other bill provides
that any railroad company which has had a
system Of commutation in three for four
years, it shall not be abolished; and that the
rs to of commutation charged shall not be in.
creased beyond the ratio now existing be-
tween it and the regular price of fare.

UNIVERSAL SUFFRAGE.
' V.
Another assertion, which takes the place
of argument with the opponents Of univer—
sal suffrage, is, that the negro race is by no—
are triumphantly asked, why, it this be not
so, tlfe African races have never succeeded
in edtablishing a civilized state ? Let us
bring the light of History to bear upon this
matter, and see if it will afford an explana-
tion. According to the common chronology,
a little more than four thousand two hun-
dred years have elapsed, since the subsiding
waters of the flood left a single family to re-
peOple the wasted earth. The first half of
this long period is almost as obscure as the
antediluvian epochs. A faint line Of light
glimmers along the darkness from the He-
brew annals, by which we catch, in the Sur-
rounding gioom, dim glimpses of giant fig-
urea—the ghosts of Egyptian, Idumean,
Assyrian, and Phoenician dynasties, while
tradition makes vague guesses at Hindu and
Chinese antiquity, and the mounds and
barrows of our own continent hint of races
that had passed away before the eras of Fe
ruvian or Aztec kings. It is not till near the
close of the first two thousand years after
the Deluge that reliable profane history be-
gins, and its first authentic revelation is the
brilliant story of Greece followed by the ma-
jestic career of Rome. From the birth ofPeri-
c1es, in the morning of ancient History, to
the death of Constantine, at the dawn of the
modern, a period of832 years, Greek and Ro
man narrative fills the annals of the world.
We know, that, south of the great African
Desert, was, and for unknown ages had been,
the home of the numerous negro tribes, and
that somewhere to the northward of the Dan-
ube roamed the wild hordes, whose genealo-
gy went back through twenty centuries, to
Gomcr, and Magog, Madai and J avan, sons
of J aphet, and who were to become the
ancestors of modern Europe. To the world
of Plato and of Seneca, the tribes of the
north and of the south were alike barba-
rians, equally believed to be incapable of
becoming the founders of civilized states.
What has made the difference in their sub-
sequent career? We shall not attempt to
interpret the mysteries of Providence, but
the historic record may afford us a partial
answer.
The irrnption of the northern Barbarians
into the Roman Empire brought them into
immediate contact with the civilization
which. they overthrew. They stood won-
der-stricken in the midst of the ruin _ which
‘ lips.
they had made. And out of that ruin emer-
ged an influence which conquered even their
rude hearts,—-the influence of Christianity.
It came, revealing God, breathing purity ’and
love, and bringing life and immortality to
light, and it gradually transformed the sav-
age Angle and Saxon, the fierce Vandal and
Goth, and Frank into the polished and en-
lightened European of the modern centu-
ries.
The negro tribes, on the other hand, re-
mained separated by vast and almost impas»
sible deserts, from the ancient civilized
world. The Christian missionary failed to
reach them. Centuries rolled away, leaving
them in their utter isolation, till, shortly be-
fore the discovery Of America, the voyages of
the Portugeese navigators drew upon them
the attention of Europe. Then, for the first
time, a representative of Christianity visited
them,but in far other guise,than when, a thou-
sand years before, the hearts of the northern.
barbarians Were won to the new religion.—
It came to the wild African nations, bring-
ing no loving message of light and redemp-
tion, but made its revelation from the deck
of the slave-ship. It tore its victims from
their burning homes, and dragged them to
inhospitable ocean shores; it loaded them
with felters, branded them with hot irons,
lashed them with knotted whips, thrust them
between the accuised decks of the slaver,
and bore them away into the fiery torment
of the Middle Passage. It landed them in a
strange land, amid a strange race, and left
them with such admonitions as these: “from
henceforth, you are to cease to be men and
to become brutes. Your domestic relations
are to be those of the beasts of the field.
Every avenue of knowledge is to be closed
against you. Develop your muscles, strength-
en your sinews, but forget that you have an
intellectual nature. Civilization requires
that you should be alaboring animal, and
the more -you approach the submissivencss
and stupidity of the ox, the better will you
be adapted to its purposes.” And, lest in the
heart of the negro there should be some as
piration, some struggle after light and liberty.
the rock of the slave-code was placed upon
hishcad to crush him down into hopeless
animalism forever. For three hundred
years, this prOcess has been going on, upon
the American Continent and its adjacent
islands, and now we taunt the negro because
he has never established acivilized state!
Has civilization, has CHRISTIANITY dealt
fairly with him ?
And yet, in spite of these adverse influen-
ces, the colored population of the United
States has attained to a degree of civiliza-
tion,equal to that of the agricultural peas—
antry of Europe. The light which Shines
from our American charters, still more,
the splendors which emanate from the sa-
cred Word, have pierced even the dark-
ness which enveloped the cabins of the
Slaves and, to some extent, the spiritual
nature of man has asserted itself in their dc-
velopment. They afford, tO-day, as iaira
promise of future progress, as did the rude
Saxon scrt‘ when the bonds of Norman vil-
lcnage were falling from his limbs. ConsidJ
er the lesson cnfolded in the following ex-.
tract from Macaulcy. (Hist. of Eng. Vol. 1.
p. 13). One of the early Norman kings, he
says, “attempted to win the hearts of his
English subjects by espousing an Englile
princess; but by many of his barons, this
marriage was regarded as a marriage be-
tween. a white planter and a Quadrant
girl would now be regarded in Virginia. In
history he is known by the honorable sur-
name of Bcaucherc; but, in his own time,
his own couptrymen called him by a Saxon
nickname, in contemptuous allusion to his
Saxon connection." Such was the estimate
of the Saxon, a few ccpturics ago; to-day
he is foremost among the peoples of the earth.
“But," it is urged, “although the negro
may possess a capacity which may be de-
veloped into fitness for exercising the right
of suffrage, at; present he is too ignorant to
be entrusted with apOWer which may be-
come dangerous in'his hands. Let him iirst
be educated into an understanding of the
duties of citizenship before you admit him
into a participation of its privileges." It is
the old aarument used by the privileged
classes thv. ,world over, an] in all time. Its
only novelty is in its utterance by American
In these summer months, agencral
election is occurring in England, and tore-
most among thc questions canvassed there
is this very one of the extension of thc suf-
frage. Class interest there, as here, denies
to the laboring man the right to vote, and
the argument of the British Tory for the
perpetuation of the injustice is identical
w'mfs . .
l with that of the American advocate of op:
pression. As if any man, white or black,
could ever be taught to swim by being kept
sprawling upon the shore! In such a sys-
tem as ours, there is no education in rpoliti-
cal duties so swift and thorough, as the pos-
' session of the right to participate in those
duties. There is no so sure way to perpetuate
ignorance of them, as the exclusion from
such participation. In a country where uni-
versal suffrage is the rule, if you maintain
2 an exception marked by an ineradicable dis-
ture incapable of self-govcrnmcnt, and we l
tinction, you doom the excepted class to
hopeless dishonor ; you take away from
them all the strongest motives which stimu-
late masses of men to exertion, and you fos-
ter every ignOble passion which can render.
them useless or dangerous to society.

BURGLARY.-—The residence of Mr. Wm.
B. Nash was entered by burglars on Tues-
day night last, who succeeded in stealing
$175 from under Mr. Nash's pillow, and
making good their escape. Mrs. N. woke
up just in time to see a man getting out of
the window. From certain indications it is
thought that the robbers used chloroform.
Robberies of this kind are getting quite too
frequent lately, and our citizens will do well
to be always prepared for an encounter with
burglars. Revolvers are “good things to
have in the house,” about this time.

Allen. The child had been out in the yard
playing, and came in and asked its mother
to “kiss me,” When it went but again, and
the mother fearing it might get out at the
yard on to the railroad track followed almost
immediately, but could not find the, child.
Search was made, and finallythe body was
found in the creek, with its feetup and head
down. It is supposed to hit-val fallen from
the dock in attempting to pull in a boat by
the rope. The mother had been constant in.
her attention tothe child, and was frantic
over its sad fate.

DAnIEN.—A new Presbyterian Church is
to be erected at this place, of a truly beauti-
f‘ul and unique character. The architecture
,will be of the modern Gothic style, which
has made such rapid strides during the nim -
teenth century, and is especially tlppl'upl'lnlc
for church edifices, regardless of sect or de-
nomination. The new church will embrace
the nave and aisles, with tower and spire at
the angles, and a deep aspc in the rear. The
walls are to be built of cement brick, manu-
factured by the American Building Block
Company, No. 48 and 50 East 26th street, N
Y. The blocks referred to form a new build-
infmaterial, which bids fair to snpercedc
the use of bricks almost entirely, and even
that of stone to a wonderful extent, as soon
as its merits become known ; inasmuch as
it will be found .to be the best and cheapest
.materialcvcrofi‘ered tO the public. Where
it is used, thereis no need of fun-ing, as no
water can penetrate on account of the blocks
being hollow, while their surface and color
are sofine as to render-it unnecessary to cov-
,BI‘ them'on theinsid‘e. The roof Oi‘the build-
ing is to be Of the Open timber character, and
all the interior wood-won: will be oiled so
as to require no paint or plaster to housed
in any part of the edifice. The extreme size
cf the-building will be' 43 feet wide by 52
~dcep,an'd will‘contain 327 sittings, T-he‘ arch-
itcct is Mr. H. Hudson Holley, at 11 Broad-

The fire was discovered at 12.35 by an em-
ployee in the Museum and at 12.40 it had
spread so fast that flames were bursting from
Burglars have been plying thtir vocation every window on the Ann street side of the
a Museum. Part of the roof fell in five min-
utes later, so that it was impossible to save
many of the curiosities. The fire soon
spread to the adjoining buildings and was
not subdued until 3 o’clock, destroying five
buildings on Broadway, seven on Ann street
and five on Fulton street. All the animals
' in the menagcrie were burned. The aquarial
collection was the best in the world. There
was also a large Zoological collection and a
fine collection of minerals, shells, stuffed
birds, etc. A series of portraits of eminent
men in the early History of the country, val-
uable as historical pictures rather than works
of art, and a number of revolutionary relies,
went to rain with the rest.
The entire loss by the fire will be over
1,000,000, Mr. Barnum losing nearly one-
fourtb of the amount. His insurance Of 35,-
. 000 will not go far toward covering his loss,
Knox, the batter, lost about $80,000, and is
insured-for 20,000. Rogers Sons, clothiers,
55,000, insured 35,000. Most Of the Insu-
rance was in New York offices.
The burning of the Musuem was a rich
theme for the Mew York reporters, who in-
' vent a thousand romances and incidents con-
cerning the fights Of the animals, the con-
fiagration of the whales, and the rivulcts of
perspiration that ran, numerous and patter-
ing, from the fat woman. The Tribune says
the snakes ran into the offices of the World
and News, and the Post says the snakes are
slandcred by the statement.
Mr. B. did not own the building, but bad
a lease of the property for fifteen years lon-
ger, and thinksbe can make $50,000 from
that. Some years ago, he purchased a lot
- . up—to‘vn with a view of ultimately moving
the Museum, and although this is a very se-
vere blow to him, it has not crashed his in-
domitable spirit, and with characteristic en-
terprise he announces his intention of imme-
diately building a new Museum, mush larger
and in every way superior to the old one,
- which shall be an honor to New York and
the nation. His son-in-law started for Eu-.
rope in search of curiosities on Saturday, and
Mr. B. intends following soon.

MEssns. EDITORS—You are entitled to the
thanks of all citizens,and especially of those
whose friends hgve been buried in our Ceme-
teries, for your persistent efforts to secure a
greatly needed reform in regard to the care
of those sacred places; sacred, because there
lie many precious “bodies,” which were once
the “temples of the Holy Ghost,” and al-
though they arc now ruins and dust, yet
" The dust and ruins that remain,
Arc precious in our eyes ;
Those ruins shall be built again,
And all that dust shall rise."
Your last notice was of the condition of
the Cemetery on Town House Hill. Its to-
tal and shameful neglect is a public disgrace.
Overgrown with bushes, brambles, and
Weeds, it is the resort of many of the vile
and w etched; and deeds of darkness are
said to be perpetrated amidst its favoring
shades and concealment, which might al-
most raise the virtuous dead whose graves
are thus insulted and desecrated. ’
If those brambles were removed, and
those beautiful elms and cedars more prop-
erly trained and trimmed, the surviving
friends of BURNETT and SWAN, and of many
others known to fame, or dear to memory,
might find it safe and pleasant occasionally
to visit their graves. But who ever enters
that gloomy thicket for so hallowed a pur-
pose ?
Shall not something be done ? Whose
business to do it? If they refuse, who will
volunteer ? That something ought to be
done at once.

sale of the last series of this loan draws near
its close, only about $50,000,000 now remain-

Decidedly the best, most durable and
cheapest known in this country. Materials
which are liable to be confounded with
this have long been in use for covering
factories and barns, &c., but never until
this recent discovery has any kind of Ce-
ment Roofing been used for our best resi-
dences. The combinations of this roofing
are such as to render it perfectly water-
proof; makes solid, handsome work, is a
very great saving of at least 25 per cent
over any other roofing in use.
