Hutu a hundred students of Prince ton College—the whole class of '80—have been suspended, and were given five hours to leave town. Cincinnati Enquirer: There is nothing in it, of course, but General Grant so far forgot himself the other night as to call her Majesty Vioky.

Aooobdino to the Courier-Journal, Packard, Pitkin and Elisa Pinkston are about making a tour of the New England 8tales to show thsir wounds and d*> nounoe Hayes. Wendell Phillips will manage the troupe. Republican organs that have been sonndiog a false alarm abont repudiation in South Carolina, oan now expend what ammunition they have left on Minnesota, whore repudiation has just been endorsed by a vote of Ibe people. Chabi.es Bbaplauqe, the British Radi os! published an obscene book, or what was oalled so. Unmolested, the sales were but 700 eopies. No sooner was a Government prosecution begult than the sales ran np at onoe to 100,000. The Concord Patriot prediota that "Hon. Thomas A Hendricks will be a power In this country at no distant day, and that the Southern States, in the nett Democratic National Convention, will prefer him to any other man.” The Democrats of Charleston city and oonnty nominated seventeen candidates for the Legislature last Tuesday, of whom thirteen are whites and three negroes. Among the nominees was R. B. Rhett, editor of the Journal of Commeree. The Seherif of Meoos being a little alow about handiDg over the treasures of the Prophet, the Sheik-ul-Itlam has sent a squad of lawyers to demand them. The Boherif Is a shrewd fellow, for he proba bly suspects that the bonanxa will be squandered by the Turkish offlolnl thieves at Constantinople. * In the Albany (N. Y.) Sunday Preu Is an article entitled "The South—What Colonel John D. Van Buren Saw There,” which is a tribute to our people that will not soon be forgotten. Colonel Van Bu ren bos lately made an extended tour of the Southern country, and nowhere will we And a stronger refutation of the slan ders of Radicalism relative to our condi tion and feeiiog than is oontaiued in his “observations.” With favorable weather for harvesting, the wheat orop throughout Central Ohio and Indiana will be the largest since the memorable year of 1804. Reports from all parts of ths Northwest in regard to the ooru orop are also very favorable. The Chicago Tribune publishes dispstohes from every Congressional District in Illi nois, and arrives at the oonoloaton that the prospeot for oorn is butter than it has bead for many years. A letter from Hon. Milton Saylor, of Ohio, to a friend in Washington speaks with confidence of the solid vote of the Ohio delegation for him for Speaker, and of very strong influences from Ken tucky and Tennessee in his favor in the event of Mr. Blackburn not being a can didate. It looks now as if Mr. Hayler would be much stronger in the Demo cratic oaucus than was at first supposed. The story of the Speakership being ar ranged at the White Sulphur Springs dur ing the President's reoent visit there is deemed preposterous. Th* story is that Garfield has soured on the Administration, brought about by three causes. 1. That Hayes beoame pro voked at him because he showed the newspaper correspondents the letter he wrote him asking him to withdraw from the Senatorial oanvsss in Ohio. 2. Be cause Hayes has refused to make three appointments in whioh Garfield was direotly interested. !!. Beosuse Garfield finds that Stanley Matthews has circum vented him, not only in the matter of the Senatorship, but hss interfered to a great extent in the oontrol of Ohio patronage, heretofore considered by him peculiarly his own. It is said by Garfield's friends that he did not oall at the White House when he passed through Washing' ton last week. The policy of recognising the 4 per cent. bonds as payable in gold only Li believed to have been fixed upon before the reoent negotiation with ths Syndioate, and communicated to the bankers. It was also embodied in the written opinion of Assistant Secretary of ths Treasury Frenob, which got into print. The letter of Secretary Sherman announoii g this determination was submitted to the Cabinet and agreed to. In the faoe of these farts ft is diffloull to understand why so muob mystery hss been produced in the matter. Judge Kelley, of Ponneyl- vania, who is now in Washington, had a two boar’s interview with the President. He it evidently much dissatisfied with the tarn things have taken. He says that OeBgrass will at the nest session ramoo> •Use silver. The National Bofemlom Mates that the Preaidant is in (aver of Wing the bonds issued before 187*, in ROM, sa well as those iasned afterwards. AMVICE TO THE COLORED BEK. Wo pnblish in another column the speech of Fred Douglass, the oolored Marshal of the Dirtriet of Columbia, and considered the leader of bis race on this continent. At least Mr. Hayes regards him as such, for b* has placed him in a vary prominent position ns s recognition of tbolr services rendered to the Repnbli- oan party. Fred on last Tuesday visited East Maryland, where his former master reside, for the purpose of seeing him. It is the first time h* haadoaesoin forty- on * years. Ths journalists say ths meet- tog was very pleasant and oordial on both aids*. H* even ascertained the year in whioh he was born—in 1818. He is now fifty-nine years of age. In hla speech he spesku very kindly of his former owner, and apologises for harsh expressions re garding him in his published book. It would be s good thing for our poople to reed whet he says to the colored people. It may do them some good. Ho does not belisve the black man equal to tbs whites, as many of those in onr city do, but that he Is far behind. He adds that if the race does not advsnoe in twenty yasrsit will be doomed. Though his father was a white men be does not believe tbs mulatto the superior in native intelligence to the ebony American, and denies tba proposition of Professor Lang ston, also oolored, to this effect. This is mere theory. In praotloe we of the Sonlh know Langston Is right and Douglass wrong. Ths advioe Douglass gives is timely. If tbs oolored people heed the adviee of the Mortons, Blaines and that class, and continue in the business of politics and effice seeking, tbs prediction of Douglass will be verified. He oonasels them to go to work and prac tice industry and eoonomy. The Radios] party baa been teaohing the negro to bis sorrow for many ye-r» that manual labor is no part of his voostion in life. Those who have rejected this falsehood are the gainers, and those who have adopted it have discovered that they have spent their strength only to elevate oorrnpt white Radlesla to offloe. It is time for them to do something for their own inter nets. They have labored long enough for alien* to ths soil. Ths Spenosra and that class leave ths oountry as soon as they pereelve that the last hope of political preferment has disappeared. Douglass,no matter how bitter and envenomed he may be, wisely oouuaels his race in the effort alluded to and its dissemination will ben efit bis people if they will take and heed it. If Dongtess will continue to enforae ■nob ideas on his fallow countrymen, he otu accomplish more good than all the false freedom and bloody shirt shriekers in Ohrissndom. BOSTON STOOD*Till; PKESSIJRE. Mr. Hayes and h<« Cabinet intend visit ing Boston, and the "Hnb” is to stand treason a royal scale. The "Woman’s Tem- peranoe Union” attempted to crash the gentlemen oat of the good times they ex pected. The Boston females are peouliar. They have sbundsnoe of brains warped by charaoteristio partisan ednoation,styled universal, to notions at variance with all the world. They honestly believe Boston is the Athens of America, and that the earth and all the other stare revolve around it ss the mentel end cultured cen tre. These ladies are not hambiome or inviting and hence can take ad- vanoed grounds and adopt the most liberal theories, and in the advooaoy stand no risk of possible danger. The men Rive them a wide berth. Well, theee females love Mr. Hayes and are opposed to leading him into temptations. Being a Western hoosier, they did not wish him and the deleotable Everts to be exposed to the fas- oinationa and blandishments of the me tropolis and superb attraction of the hem- Ispheree. Now Boston intends free- innobing Mr. Hsyea, and that gentleman will aooept all t^at is offered. The fern- euine association of which we have spok en, besieged the Mayor in his offloo and begged him not to plaoe wine before the simple and guileless Rutherford. They talked with tears in their eyes, and the pathos was awfully touohing. It did not effeot the mighty funolionary to whom they appealed. Munnting the highest stool in bis offloo he harangued the assembled sudienoe. He told them that Boston wsa a oity whioh dwarfed all others by contrast. He liked wine And iced drinks; so did the other dignitaries of the corporation. They favored moder ate drinking, the kind whioh foroes a man, when returning home in the small hours of night, to oall to his wife to throw him down some key holes, assorted tiaee. It Rutherford came he would have wine before him—nay, ho would be even offered grass in his liquor. Thabrinuniug obsmpsgne, the genial sher ry, and the vintages of the Bunny valleys and the easenoe of oorn and rye and mel low punches would be provided for the great man. He would be urged to par take of his ohotoe of the best, and if he did not aocept the Witation, hie Honor knew who would. Having thus expressed his sentiments, he bade them an affecting farewell, and they departed sadly but happy, in the fact that they had learned something. Boston will give Mr. Hayes somethiug to drink. HOMOI AND ttOLDEHITH. MOBS or THE WASHINGTON COUNTS MATTES / —CARDS moM THE TBEASUBEB AND COMP- TBOLLIB OEHBBAL—HOW THE MATTES STANDS AT PRESENT.* Some time ainoe we published an arti cle from the Bandersville Herald, giving an account of the question at iaene be tween Hon. J. A. Robson, formerly Tax Golleotor of Washington oonnty, and now a member of the General Assembly, and Comptroller General Goldsmith with re gard to ao execution for $8,900 issued by the latter against the former and tha sureties on his bond. In the Washington Herald, appeared the following cards from tba Gotqptrailer General and State Treaaorer: Atlanta, Ga., June 18th, 1877. My attention has been oalled to an arti cle in your last issue beaded, “Messrs. Goldsmith end Robson,” which needs s reply. On the 8th day of Deosmber last, J. A. Robson, Tax Collector of Waebing- ington oonnty, Ga., expressed to me fourteen thonssnd ($14,0001 dollars in money end papers. For a Collector to send money to me wsa unnsusl, bnt as tbs package was sent me, and no one oonld receipt the Express Company for said package but me, I did so on the 9th of Deosmber, and tamed the peokege over to Hon. John W. Renfros, Stele Treasurer, who disposed of the remittance contained in' said package as dlreeted by Mr. J. A. Robson, by making the follow- lowing payments on said 9th of Deoeap bar, 1870: Closed ao't 1875, balance $8,285.82 Receipt from Reo’r for Corns. 1876 691.21 Paid oo ao't General Tax, 1876. 5,908.80 State School Oom'r Draft, 1876. 1,969.67 Total payments $11,850.00 Deduot this amount from the $14,000 and yon have s balance of $2,150, whioh amount was token ont of the package by the State Treasurer, as he informs me, and applied to a loan made by Mr. Rob son from a third party of ($2,000) two thousand dollars on June 1st, 1876, whioh amount ha (Mr. Robson) paid into the Treasury of ths State on that day. So it will be seen that the ($14,000) four teen thousand dollars, less one hundred and fifty ($150) dollars, interest paid to ths lender of the two thousand ($2,000) dollars, did goto the credit of Mr. Bob- eon. I cm not responsible for anything going to show that Mr. J. A. Robson did not owe tbs State of Georgia anything in Janaary, 1877. I have never said so to any one, or In any manner gave oat or tried to make any snsh impression. I am, rsspertfnlly yours. W. L. Goldsmith. Atlanta, Ga., Jnne 18th, 1877. Editors Herald arul Georgian: Wlille I do not feci oalled upon to re' r y to your editorial of June 14th, yet as am familiar with the Robson matter, and an the $14,000 in question passed through my bands, perhaps it is proper for me to explain the transaction to the public The paokage said to oontain $14,000 was reoeived by the Comptroller and turned over to me. I opened and found it oontaiued $11,276.12 in money, $1,969 67 in Sohool Commissioner’s draft, $63 Wild Land draft, and $691.21 Tax Receiver's draft, making in all $14,000. I was notified by Mr. Robson that part of this was tax money and part reoeived from other sonroes, end that he wished me to pay ont of this money two thonS' end dollars and interest to a party of whom he had borrowed said amount in Jnne to pay on bis tax aooount (whioh the books will show was paid then), then place e sufficient amount to settle in full his tax aooount of 1875, and plaoe. the balance to bis tax soo mnt of 1876 This was done, ss the books of my office will show. Yon state "ap to this time we have said nothing in referecoe to the matter for the simple reason we were not posted.” To this statement I fully agree with you, and beg to say that you appear no better post ed at yonr writing than at any other pe riod. The hooka for this and the Comp, trailer’s offioe are always open for inspec tion. As to tha statement of Messrs. Newmsn and Kelly,on whioh yon lay so marts stress, I only have this to ssy: I have no donbt that the former did oonnt, seal and ex press ths paekege containing the $14,000 in money and drafts, as it was bis bwn handwriting (I have it on file yet) and it was disposed of as stated. As to the' lat ter's statement, I know nothing, bnt an] *pose Governor Smith bad reference former years when he spoke to Mr. Kelly, for I know he would not make an incor rect statement. I have Dot seen him since yonr article appeared, but at the time Mr. Kelly refers to, January, 1677. Mr. Robson had not been deolared a de frailer. Respectfully, * J. W. Kenfroe. BRIBED BY INSURANCE MEN. MTBTUIOCI DISAPPEARANCE OP A BILL PASSED BT THE MISSOURI LEGISLATURE —THE CHIEF CLERK OP THE LOWER HOUSE CHARGED WITH A OEAVH OEPENSE. Special dispatch to the New York Times J Sr. Louie, Jane 19.—For several days tost there has been considerable talk in nsoranea circles regarding an insur ance bill passed by the Missouri Llgieia- ture loot Spring, and whioh wsa fiercely fought rgainst by several Bt Louis agen cies on aooount of having involved non forfeiting fertnrea. The journals of the Hones end Senate show that ths bill had passed through all the stages of legislation necessary to maka it a law, bnt there is a little unwritten history which does not ap pear on these books. After tba paaaaga of tha bill by the Lower House, it went to the Senate, where It was immediately referred to tha Oommittee on Insur ance. This oomnRttes waa so dilatory in its notion on the bill that 1 the dose of the session was approaching end yet no report bad been made to the Sen ate. Finally, Senator Edwards introduced resolution to the effort that the Ser- gem tat-Arms be requested to produoe the chairman of the committee and make him show np. Then it tranepired that the insurance bill had been lost, and in stead of the original bill the committee bed been acting on a oopy. The Senate passed the oopy of the bill, and the jour nal shows this foot. It then became nec essary tor George Frame, Chief Clerk of the Honse, to deliver tba document to the Speaker, and thanee to the Governor’s irivate secretary, who now says that the rill was- never delivered to him. After making this assertion to the Governor tk*t official sent an .order to Frame re ting him. to appear at the Governor's office and aooonnt for tha missing bill. Frame did not obey-the summons, but immediately disappeared, and is supposed to be in .Canada. The general theory is that he was bribed by certain insurance companies to pat ths bill ont of the way, end that he has fled the oouniry to escape ths conseqaenee of this sot. Mine host Hilton, of the Grand Union st Saratoga, says he objeeta to Seligmsn, not because he is a Hewbrew, but be- oaoae he ia not wanted, and inaiata that no religions standard is raised. Ha adde: “The Seligman Jew represents nothing that is standard Hebrew. He is to the Hebrew what tha shyster is to the law profession. He is the ‘eheeue.’ He hss made money, and he mast advertise it in his person. He is of low origin, end his instinota ere ell of the gutter. He comet to the Grand Union, big with himself end little with everybody else in the decent world, pltnks down his cash with his royal order, end having never seen re spectable food, he oan't get onongh to eat anises be gorges down his unpraotioed throat six meats a day. People won’t go to hotels whan Seligman is admitted, and hotels, if they would thrive, mutt keep ont those who would rain their exietenee, «id Mm vary fart that Seligman makes * a foes bteane* people don't want his band makes aneb a noise to fore* f where he it unwelcome, instead of going elsewhere, proves him to be just what I described him.” HILTON AND THE JEWS, WHAT SELIOMAN’a BROTHER BATS ABOUT THE TROUBLES, New York, June 21.—The exolnsion of Joseph Seligman from the Grand Union hotel, Saratoga, on the ground of his be tug a Jew, ooutinnee to exoite great pub' lie interest, end is the topio of converse lion among oitiaena of all olaasee. Hie brother, Joseph Beligmen, when ques tioned this morning in regard to the pro posed public meeting on the subjeot, said be understood soma Christian gentlemen were taking steps to oall a mealing of that character, bnt he bad no definite in formation on the matter. He thought it very uulikely that any measures would be taken to institute legal proceedings againat Jndge Hilton nnder the. civil rights art. What he wished impressed on the public was the fart that this was not a personal controversy between bis brother and Judge Hilton. His brother was excluded from the Grand Union Ho tel on the ground that a rale had been made to exolnde ell hie raoe. Judge Hil ton, Seligman thought, ought to say frankly whether be had established the rale in question. Judge Hilton was in his wholesale store as nsual this morning, and, what is not usual, was surrounded by report era. He gave them five minutes. He said: "What I have done I have done in wbat I oonoelved to be my duty in the protection of the in tercet of the property in my obarge, There is a olasa of people whom I wil not have in the hotel.and I hava the right to aay ao. I don’t see how this oenc-rus the general public. Every respectable hotel has the right to exercise discrimina tion in eooepting gneste, and I have sim ply exercised my judgment in that way. So far aa tha damage to business is con cerned, we have received no formidable overtures to rain. A few aooonnta, not at present exoeeding $500 in total value, have been ordered dosed, and we have obeyed orders, with no objections so far as heard from, of having the ecoount kept closed. I am surprised that the pub- lio take snob interest in this affair. At the Tenth street store onr customers are constantly giving assuranoes of their approval of my acting np to tha views I entertain. “ ' VEGETINE.

Congress is Demooratio, and will not increase the atmy or pay it to be used in coercing the whites of the 8onthern States. I have se rious doubts whether Hayes was elected by tbs people, although Congress, whioh represents ths people, saw fit—I think wisely—to dsotew him ths President.
