rnderaoeA'a (YT. 9.) Court at lllcbmoit^.
Wo ilcvotc most of our editorial space this
morning to tho following report made tor the
Richmond Tima, of the assembling of Judge
Underwood's (U. 8.) Court In that city, of inci
dents connected therewith, and of his chargo to
tho grand jury. Wo do so, lorming, as the re
port docs, the chronicling of an event singularly
rare lu the history ot Umt importaut legal tri
bunal, aud of the "Mother State"—that glorious
old commonwealth whose past Is so resplendent,
and whoso future, wo trust and believe, will
maintain, though she, liko her Southern sister
Slates, Is now under a cloud, her ancient renown.
“Whither arc wo drilling,” may well be tho in
quiry of every loyal and patriotic man In the
land, when those who woar tho judicial ermine
indulge In such intemperate abuse of high offi
cial prerogative, and who appear, hs tliclr lan
guage indicates, to bo Influenced more by passion,
and prejudice, and hate, than by a desire to
maintain the law in Justice and in mercy. But
we refrain further comment. We are sick at
heart at auch a display, and only transfer (he
proceedings of this, Judge Underwood’s (U. 8.)
Court, to our columns, as one of tho disgusting
features of tho history of the times. The reader
can pass upon them such judgment os he pleases:
(From the Richmond Times.]
UNDER WOOD’S (tj. a) COURT.
Judge John 0. Underwood, of the United
States Circuit Court for Virginia, arrived In Rich
mond yesterday afternoon at 1:30 o'clock, by tho
Fredericksburg train, landing at tho Petersburg
depot and walking thenco to the Spottswooa
hotel. lie was escorted from the depot to the
hotel by Collector James, who wnlkcd on his
right hand, and the Assistant District Attorney,
who walked on the other. IIo was followed bv
a large and very block negro man, who bore hfs
traveling bag and a ponderous law book, nearly
as big as a Webster’s Dictionary. Threo ne
groes, supposed to bo the African quota of the
graud jury, followed behind, and on arriving at
the S|K>tewood corner were informed by the
Clerk of the Court that Judge Underwood would
open his Court at 3 o’clock precisely. Not be-
iug invited to accompany the Judge into the
hotel, they proceeded up Eighth street. The
distinguished arrival produced no excitement.
THE COURT ROOM.
As tho hour of three o'clock approached a
number of reporters and some dozen or.more
lawyers of tho city, the latter prompted by cu
riosity to see tho Grand Jury and hear the
Judge’s charge, repaired to the United States
Court room, on the second floor of tho Custom
House. Among the lawyers we noticed Messrs.
Neeson, Maury, Haymoud, Nance, the two Gil
mers, Gulgoni Jones, Green, Grattan, Fitzhugh,
Johnston, Child and others.
Later, thirty or forty citizens, also attracted
by curiosity, dropped in. A few minutes after
three o’clock the Grand Jury came by twos
and three9 and took their scats, Mr. Bolts
inking the position of lorcman.
At a quarter past three Judge Underwood
came in and took his seat, and ordered the call
ing of the following list of Grand Jurors:
LIST OF THE GRAND JURORS—BOTTB.
John Minor Bolts, Joseph Segar, Lewis Mc
Kenzie, J. T. Baldwin, Rozier Dulaney Beckley,
colored, David Lupton, Cornelius Liggon Har
ris, colored, John Hawxhurst, Thomas Davy,
T. 9. Tenuis, William Bartlett, Qeorgo w.
Simms, colored, Fields Cook, colored, John Oli
ver, colored, GiUett T. Watson, Michael Umbnr-
ger, Jacob N. Troth, John W. Gregg, Joseph T.
Janney, John Wissler, If. G. Bond, William Q.
Mansfield.
The list being called, all responded except
Lewis McKenzie, William Bartlett, Fields Cook
and J. T. Baldwin.
The Judge ordered that Mr. Botts be sworn as
foreman, aud he was sworn, taking it number ol
oaths. Tho rest were then called up by fours
and sworn, negroes and whites together. There
was nothing remarkable in this ceremony except
the avidity of the negroes to kiss the book, (they
could scarcely be restrained till the clerk got
through icpcatingtho oaths,) and the unction
with 1 which they smacked their lips over the sa
cred volume when permitted to get at it.
underwood’s charge—a gross and abomina
ble LIBEL ON THE PEOPLE OF RIOHMOKD.
The Graud Jurors having been duly sworn
and having resumed their seals, tho Judge turned
in hi.i seat, and facing them, proceeded to read
in a harsh and rather indistinct voice, fumbling
*{■» ;!*••*•■"* ‘•“.•"““"sqriqt .uervoiulv tha while,
the following infamous diatribe—The most abom
inable, without doubt, that ever disgraced a court
of Justice. During the reading, which was in
terrupted only by nn occasional half-suppressed
snort from an Ethiopian Grand Juryman, Botts
shut his eyes, and compressing tho lids violently,
looked as if attempting to imagine himself some
where else.
“ Gentlemen of the Grand Jury:
“ The circumstances surrounding us demand
devout thanksgi ving to Almighty God that wo,
the friends and representatives of tho Govern
ment of the United States, who, last yenr were
threatened with destruction and hunted by as
sassins In'this city for. attempting to execute
the laws of our country, can now meet in con
scious security tinder the wings of tho starry
banner which our pntriot Congress has raised
lor our protection. That we arc permitted to
meet in this building of everlasting granite, so
emblematic of tho power aud strength of our
Government, standing alnno and unharmed amid
tho great conflagration that swept ns with a he-
Bom ol destruction all around it.
“ And wlmt solemn associations aro suggested
by reflecting that in the very rooms we now oc
cupy dwelt the fiery soul of treason, rebellion
and civil war—hence issued that fell spirit which
starved by wholesale prisoners for the crime of
defending tho flag of our common country; as
sassinated tailored soldiers for their noble and
trusting labors lu behalf of a government tlmt
had as yet only promised them protection ; burn
ed towns and cities with rt bnrbarity unknown to
Christian countries; scattered yollow fever and
small pox among tho poor and helpless, aiid
finally struck down one of earth’s noblest mar
tyrs to freedom and humanity.
“ Another subject of thanksgiving is presented
in the very constitution of your body, furnishing
ocular evidence that the age of caste and class
cruelty has departed, and the new era of justice
and equality breaking through the clouds of per
secution and prejudice is now dawning upon us.
And strangest of nil that this city of Richmond
should be the spot ot earth to furnish this gra
cious manifestation. Richmond, the beautiful and
abandoned seal of the rebellion, looking as comely
and specious ns a goodly apple or a gilded sepul
chre, where bloody treason nourished its whips of
scorpions. Richmond, where the slave trade so
lung held high carnival, where the press has found
tlie lowest depths of profligacy; where licen
tiousness lias ruled until, probably, a majority of
births were illegitimate or without the forms of
Law; where the fushionnble and popular pulpit
hud been so prostituted that its lull-fed minister
ing gay Lotharios generally recommended the
worship of wlmt they most respected, pleasure,
property or power, corresponding to the pagan
or mythological ideas of Bacchus, Mammon or
Mars—
•’ Cods brutal, partial, paaelonate and unjust;
Whote attrtbutea were rage, revenge and laat.
It waa aa if the Benda prevailed
Ho aoft tho aceno, ao formed for Joy,
Ho curaed the cauaca that destroy.’’.
“But we are reminded that, ‘where sin
abounded, grace may much more abound,’ and,
in the light of recent changes, may we not hope
a material and moral future lor tins city of Rich
mond, in strong contrast with Its awful and
rilheistlc, and in harmony with the salubrity of
its climate, the poetic beauty of Us scenery, and
the magnificence ot its water power.
”1 have sometimes found that, by tho usages
of tills State, which have given (lie selection of
juries to the sheriffs and marshals, or, In proles-
sional language, have packed juries instead ol
drawing them from u box of mimes selected by
other ofllcers, as is done in most of the States,
there was (lunger ol getting Indifferent persons
upon the panel, but the care und rure judgment
which our marshals have ulways shown in their
selections, prove my fears unfounded, and 1 am
truly gratified to find so many gentlemen of pub
lic and private worth upon the present Jury.
”\Ve so often hear, irom treasonable sources
around ns, of cruel acts passed by Congress since
the beginning of the war—acts which we are
called upon to enforce—that It Is well, perhaps,
tor one moment to consider the utter falsehood
of such charges, and to find, on examination,
rite unparalleled clemency aud lorhenrattce ot
the victorious Government which, but for the
cost of tho rebellion, would now be felt only iu
its protection and Its blessings. While it has
heretofore been the common law of all nations,
our own included, to punish treason hy death, it
was reserved lor the American Congress, in the
midst of a gigantic rebellion, oo the 17tj» day of
July, 1803, to reduce that punishment, if courts
should aco fit, to fine aud imprisonment. Again,
it bus been (he usage of all nations, in peace as
well aa war,
the most trivial
property to the full i
has committed; a i
victorious governments In
and yet wo have seen a *
markable alike for his atn
education, culture andlmprovemcnla bo had
conferred upon hit Slate and country—a states
man greatly eminent among his tellow-lcgisla-
tom, and, by common consent of successive Con-
gressos, acknowledged aa e loader and IMhor
with a delbrenco that neither Clay, Fox, the Pitts,
nor even Clccro lied over known. This noble
man we have aeon assailed with a bitterness and
falsehood peculiar to tho authors and leaders of
the rebellion, Its pimps and apologists, and for
wimtr Why, for proposing that a few ot those
who had becu chiefly-Instrumental In filling the
land with war and mourning, and debt and taxa
tion, and who, Uko tho late Secretary ol rebel
finances, bad inado millions by blockade running
and by speculating upon the general distress,
should, out of tbclr princely estates, contribute
one-tenth of the damages they bad done, and at
the same Umo expressly exempting from penalty
all the great masses of those who had been
drawn into tho lato war. This bn nano statos-
mnn also proposes not to punish any with that
extreme rigor usual lu civil wars, and not even
to the extent exacted by every European nation
in ordinary foreign wars. Wossuoh moderation
and clelnoucy ever before so abused and insult
ed f May this grandest old statesman of onr
country aud ago still continue to strive, notwith
standing tho advance of years and disease, and
may wo yet be guided by his wisdom and benefi
cence, until the great questions now pending bo
decided in the interest of peace, progress and
freedom.
“ I regret, gentlemen, that I cannot encourage
you with tho hope of a abort or light session, as
I am informed by the District Attorney that your
labors may be considerable.
“ The unmitigated disloyalty which animates
so large a portion of our newspaper press, is pro
ducing sad effects upou the public morals, espe
cially In creating a disposition, by fraud and per
jury, to escape taxation necessary for tho support
of the Government, in encouraging the circula
tion of counterfeit money, and, It is to bo feared,
the anxiety to vote at the approaching elections
by persons engaged in the late rebellion, Is about
to produco an immense amount of labor tor our
grand Juries.
“ On this subject 1 may havo occasion to ad
dress you more at length on a future occasion.
“ Your attention is particularly called to an
abuso which bad assumed nn alarming aspect
in this city, as a relic of the old barbarism ol
slavery. 1 mean the brutal rejection of a great
laboring and useful class of the people from tho
streetcars. Under tho act ot Congress common
ly called the Civil Rights bill, there is an un
doubted remedy for such outrages. Chartered
transportation companies owe impartial duties
to the public, and tho gross wrongs complained
of deserve your indignant reprobation. I know
the matter has been arranged by the command
ing General, with his usual great prudence and
judgment; but it is, from its nature, a mere tem
porary settlement, and needs confirmation by
the legal sanction ol courts and juries. I only
ask that you add your weight to what has been
so well and wisely done by the General. It any
of your number know of any violation of law,
it is your duty to report it to the body, which
should always bo sixteen in number, and the as
sent of twelve is required to find a true bill.
The charge having been concluded, the Judge
instructed the Jury to re-assemble tills morning
at 11 o’clock, and ordered the crier to close the
court.”
As the crier ceased, the grand Jury, white aud
negroes, hustled out, followed by the Judge, and
the citizens dispersed.
In the course of some conversation with a
newspaper correspondent, Judge Underwood
stated that tho court he was about to hold was
the Circuit and not the District Court.
The grand juryman, Cornelius Liggon Harris,
is tho negro shoemaker who has a shop on Filth
street, near 9t. James’ Church. John Oliver is
Governor Pierpont’s newly-appointed negro No
tary Public. Harris seemed as pleased as Punch
at his scat on the jury along with “ the immortnl
Botts,” and it would Lave delighted Mrs. Stowe’s
heart to see the sweet aud complete fraterniza
tion ot Caucasslan and the cbo-shin. This is
the first occasion In the history ol tho world
when negroes composed a part ol a grand jury.
The Judge, in his charge, gives the credit of the
negro selections to his marshals, but it will be
difficult to make the world believe that they
were not dictated by the learned Judge himself.
Episcopal CnuRon.—The Chattanoogo Union
states that the claim of 9t. Paul’s Episcopal
Church at that place for $3,640, for damages
done the church building during its occupation
by the United States Military Authorities, hits
been approved by the Quartermaster General
and the amount of the cluitn has been paid to
tl.n V—I-J- -c <!.. ohuroh by BIUJ. WalllWllgllt,
A. Q. M. Plans are now being made for the
completion of repairs upon the church, and
work will be commenced at as early a day as
practicable.
BepublicaVi State Convention.—The South
Carolina Republican State Convention assent
bled in Charleston on the night ol the 7th. A
dispatch of the 8th says; Only two districts in
tho State represented. Delegates almost exclu
sively colored. A negro Irom Beaufort was
elected President. United Stales Marshal Ep
ping, of Charleston, wits the only white man
among tho Vice-Presidents. Several persons in
cluding Miss Harper, colored, addressed the con
vention, when it adjourned till to-day.
Kentucky,—Tho Louisvillo Courier admonish
es Mr. Wilson, of Middlesex county, Massachu
setts, that il he visits Kentucky on a speechify
ing tour, the papers there will do their level best
to write him into notice, and embalm his name
for future reference. Well, we don’t know of
any public mau who is more vulnerable, both
as regards tho speeches ho is now making and
his past record. Yet, perhaps, tho most feeling
rebuke lie could receive would be to let expres
sive silence muse bis praUc.
Superior Court.—Tho Albany tri-weekly
New says;
The cose of Frank Cooper for murder, was
ably nrguedon lost Tuaday.by Messrs Davis and
Morgan for the defense, and D. M. Pope, Esq ,
on tho port of tho State. Two wholodays were
consumed in this trial. The jury, alter due de
liberation, brought iu a verdict of guilty.
Tito trial of George Washington, a negro hail
ing from Baltimore, lor the murder of a negro
by the name ol Henry Holmes, on the night of
the 13lh of April, in this city, is now in progress.
“Malakoff,” the Paris correspondent of the
New York Times, says the opposition members
of the French Chamber, feeling no indulgence
for the faults of the Government, are humilia
ted at the position in which France has been
placed ; and, while willing to fight their way
out, are at the saute time organizing for a
revolution.
A Springfield (Massachusetts) paper states
that a man went the other day to a bank in
that city to draw $6,000 he had on deposit,
and was astounded on being informed that
there was not, all told, that much in bank.
He was given a “certificate of deposit” in lieu
of the cosh.
Bibb County.—Tho Macon Journal and Mes
senger says it is rumored that Mr. Elijah Bond,
and Mr. C. T. Ward, are two of the board of
commissioners, or agents appointed lor the coun
ty ol Bibb; the third is not known, but is sup
posed to be, or will be, a gentleman of color.
Explosion at Fort Scmter.—The Charles
ton Murcury of Thursday states that au explo
sion of an old shell occurred at Fort Sumter the
day previous, by which a man named Iiourke
lost bis lile. The explosion took place while
the unfortunate man wus handling the shell and
trying to extract the powder from it.
Cartersville.—The Express is rejoiced to
see lliut, notwithstanding the tightness of tits
times and the great dearth ot business, the pro
gress of the town is still “ onward and upward,”
slowly hut surely. The citizens still cuntiitue to
build, and new candidates for public patronage
in the slmpe of Btores arc being opened.
Tue Old Flag.—A writer says; “The way
to place the ’old flag’ in its old position is to
make it tits emblem of old freedom, aud old
rights.” _ #
Escaped.—Two prisoners charged with horse
stealing, made their escape from the sheriffs
guard, at Dalton, a few days ago.

After the organization, and the appointment
of the usual business committees, resolutions re
lative to the death of Bishop Elliott, oflered by
Rev. Mr. Rees, were adopted, and the Conven
tion adjourned to the hour of morning service
to-morrow.
The general impression seems to be, that the
number of clergy and lay delegates is larger iu
the present Convention than in auy former one.
This is owing, in part, to the interest felt in the
electiou of a Bishop of the Diocese of Georgia,
which Is expected to take placo to-morrow or
next day. No reliable conclusion can be arrived
at yet as to the result. The names of Rev. Mr.
Beckwith, of New Orleans, and the Missionary
Bishops of Arkansas and Oregon are spoken of
most prominently, thus far, in connection with
the selection.
An annoying question is likely to be up for
action, springing out of the application of 8t.
Stephens’ Church, of Savannah, organized of
colored persons, fbr adinfealon. What action
wilt bo taken is uncertain. I will apprlaa you if
me quest ion Sttoutu tie urougtit up for decision.

Farther from the Plalue,
A dispatch from Fort Laramie of the 29lli
April says;—The Indians havo surrendered
llonto Shoe, and hard fighting is going on. The
telegraph lino west will probably play out
shortly.
Tho Denver Newt lias further particulars of
the burning of Lookout Station, from Fort Hayes.
It says;
A detuchmunt of soldiers went on to bury the
bodies of tho three men butchered at Lookout,
and to see what further damage had been done.
The three men belonging to the station were
found lying on their faces sido by side, in front
of the ruins of their station. Their bodies were
burned and contracted into horrible shapes—oue
of them was shot In the breast, and the others
appear to have been stabbed In the ribs with
knives. One of them only was scalped.
Tho trail followed along the route past several
stations. At Stony Hollow, next this side ol
Lookout, they had appeared, and tried to gain
admittance. They nre said to number Borne
sixty or seventy at that station, and claimed to
be very friendly, showing their treaty to gain ad
mittance, but the whites refused to let them in.
At Chalk Bluff they also appeared, some six or
seven hundred ot them, and trid to get in, but
were also refused admittance; they carried ou a
conversation with tho men ut the station for a
long time until by some accident a pistol was
discharged Inside, at which the Indians became
frantic; they rushed away from the house a lit
tle ways, took off their blankets, &c., put on their
war paint, and returned yelltug and thirsting for
blood; they called out to the party inside, daring
them to come out and fight. “ Fight, fight a
heap,” being their most frequent cry.
There was a coach tligyc, and they cut the
boot off and some ol tho trappings; there was
also a wagon with some provisions in it, and the
white men finally compromised by giving them
lour sucks of flour and a keg ol molasses. The
Indians filled all their canteens and found there
was some left, and returned to the house aud
wanted a receipt for It. At this station, or near
it, they killed a mule. All tho stock between
Big Creek and Monument station bus been
buuclted at two points for better security.
TnE New York Tribune.—The presont
editor of the Rochester Democrat, who, In 1861,
occupied a prominent position on the editorial
stall of the New York Tribune, is just now en
gaged in ventilating some matters connected
with that noted Journal, of which Mr. Greeley
has generally Itecn supposed to be the leading
editor. In one of bis articles, the Rochester
man says:
“Mr. Greeley’s knowledge of turnips is unim
peachable, but his opiuions on politics or public
affairs are of very little real value. Mr. Greeley
writes well, and has a good deal of skill in at
tacking error and iu denouncing meanness and
villainy: hut If he had tho management of a
party, lie would run itdnlo the ground In a twelve
month; und il he were, as the deluded public
supposes, the reui editor of the Tribune, that ex
cellent jottrua) would rapidly lull from its high
estate. The owners of the Tribune are well
aware ot this, aud while they value highly, as
they ought to, the prestige of Mr. Greeley’s
name, they take good care to put a viceroy over
him in Hie shape of a managing editor, who
really conducts the paper, and whose chief diffi
culty nlwats consists in keeping the good Horace
Irom doing foolish things.
The Nashville Gazette.—Our clever co
temporary ol the Nashville Gatette seems to be
enjoying himself, notwithstanding the rather un
promising prospect in Tennessee. Iu his last he
says: •
We understand that the autocrat ot Tennessee
contemplates organizing a navy to co-operate
with his land forces. Twoold steamers are to be
iron-clad for service in the Cumberland waters—
one will cruise iu the upper Cumberland, and the
other will keep the delunct rebels at Fort Don-
olsou from the polls.
j Affray at Macon.—A man named Jim
j Burns, from Twiggs county, was shot and mor
tally wounded, Ut an affray at a house of ill re
pute, in Macon, on Wednesday night. Several
arrests Lave been made.
We copied front one of our Georgia exchanges
a few days ago a paragraph In relation to a Art-
low named Stadfot, who was going through the
country Imposing upon the freedmon by giving
thorn, fora small consideration In money, certi
ficates for forty aflifes of laud. We find tho fol
lowing In relation to his operations In Sooth
Carolina in the Orangeburg Timet. Tho scoun
drel ought to bo overhauled and made nn exam
ple of, though he is only reducing to practice the
fraud which his fllc-Ioadcrs tench:
We learn from Mr. J. J. Woodward, who fur
nished us the information we published two
weeks ago concerning tho swindler signing him
self A. Hun lot, that Oils reliable friend of the
freedmen topk Ills departure from St. Matthows
a few days ago, having pocketed In ills travels
$500. He is said to havo been very successful
down on the Banteo. Some of the colored peo-
‘pie in Mr. Woodward’a neighborhood having
paid their money, camo to town on Monday to
lako their choice of the lnrms, hut if there were
any farms distributed, they didn’t sco them, and
consequently, they appreciate Air. Stnntot’s dis
interested kindness very highly. They were
told by this disciple of freedom aud universal
equality, that Alrica and France ltnd bought the
Southern States (from Sumner and Stevens we
suppose) for distribution among a more worthy
race than 1ms heretofore owned them, and, in
fact, that the year of Jdbllee had come for the
colored folks. Mr. Woodward's Informer said
that he refhsed then to have anything to do with
It, lor he knew if tho white people were to be
turned out, there was war in it, and be bad seen
enough of Hint kind of thing. If the colored
people will only profit by this experience, they
will not have pain too dearly for their whistles.
And while upon tills subject, wo would men
tion that wo have learned Irom the freedmen
here that a system of fraud and terrorism is be
ing practiced upon some of them lor tho purpose
of controlling their votes. They are told that
they will bo put In tho penitentiary, it they do
not vote In a certain way. They are destined to
bo imposed on by every mode of deceit and
falsehood.
BY
Negro mob In Richmond,
Richmond, May 9.—A serious mob occurred
this evening. A largo crowd of negroes gathered
in Cary street to sco the trial between the en
gines of Richmond and Wilmington, Delaware,
Fire Company. A fight took place and a negro
was arrested. The mob ot negroes rescued him,
but be was again arrested. Upon arriving at the
upper station bouse tho negro mob again rescued
him, throwing paving stones at the police. Cap
tain Jenkins, ot the police, two sergeants and one
E rlvalo were all injured, two ol them seriously.
ly this time the tnob bad swelled to nearly a
thousand negroes. General Schofield Bent up a
company of the 11th regiment, and came him
self. He spoke to the mob, commanding them
to disperse, but the order was not obeyed. The
soldiers then charged bayonets, and drove them
away. More soldiers were sent to the station
house after night, and no riot is likely to occur.
During the progress of the mob they surround
ed a house in which a hoy had taken refuge, and
clamored for him until he came out. The police
took him in charge. The nogroes said lie had a
sluDg shot.
Earthquake.—The • Lexington Enterprise
says: About two o'clock on Wednesday lost,
many of our citizens heard a noise in the South
east, resembling that produced by an earthquake.
Two distinct explosions were heard, and in some
