true rule as to the employment of milita'y

timidation or coercion should lie allowed *o

of their right to vote, whether it appear* in
the shape of combination or eviJ-di*|.o*ed

from all forcible interference, and as
far as practicable from all apprehension of

the union or of the state militia. should le

that the bill exempts from ;he general pro

exceptions recognize and concede t fie sound

“At the most critical period* of our history
my predecessors in the execut vr office have
relied on this great principle. It was on
fhia principle that President Washington
suppressed the wliinkj* relsdliou in Penn

itrinriple, President Jefferson broke up the

Hattie Green, libellant (and her husbaiid.

Bridgeton, etc. Decision of the court:
Ersktne. J.—The libellant states that the
steamboat City of Bridgeton, in September,
1878. the time of the alleged tort, wa* a
common carrier of freight and passei.gers
for hire, at certain s|>ecified rates, between
the city of Savannah and Paiatka, in the
state of Florida, and intermediate point*,
including the port of Darien, in this dis
trict; that said Hteambcat Wing at the
wharf of Darien, and llWIlant desiring to
go to Savannah, went on board, carrying
with her a three-year old child, her nephew,
and-took her position as a passenger, with
said child, on the upper «feck aft, which
was the only place or portion of tlie
steamboat having any comforts or
conveniences for passengers; that those
who were willing to travel without
.he usual comfort and conveniences, were
transported on the lower deck; but said that
place wa* unfit for liWllant and child; that
sometime after leaving the wharf the
l'Ur*S3ftM*WBfe3Btgms_i. L Jibc)la,.<,
and, fPNtnmg to take any passage money
from her, directed her to go to the lower
deck, and, on her declining to do so, he in
formed her that he would put tier off at
Dolioy wharf, to which place the said
steamboat wa* drawing near; that she then
appealed to tlie captain of said vessel, hut
obtained no substantial justice or protec
tion; that on reaching Doboy. a port within
this district, and having previously ten
dered the customary fare, which had been
declined, the nurser insisted that she
should ride on tlie lower deck or that he
would have to put Iteroff*. Under there cir
cumstances, and liWllant not deeming the
lower deck a fit place to occupy, and not
desiring to be ejected front the steamboat
with violence, yielded to the forced alterna
tive. ami with the child went out upon the
wharf at Dolioy, and was compelled to re
main there nearly six hours, when she was
taken off by a imssing steamer, and reached
Savannah the next dav; ami hy reason of
said officers not allowing her to enjoy and
receive the benefits of a first-class passage
u|k)ii said boat, ami by reason of 'heir uot
performing their duties to carry her safely
and properly, she ha* been damaged one
thousand‘dollars. Ami also, that by rea
son of said illegal and unjustifiable actions
of the said officers, and the manner in
which she was forced to leave said steam
boat, ami the pain, indignity and humilia
tion thus dote to and inilicted upun her
she has suffered damage to the amount of
two thousand dollars, in addition to the
dartages hereinbefore referred, to, etc.
The answer of laiwrence. the claimant
ami agent, denies that libellant was entitled
to the accommodations or (nirticular privi
leges claimed by her, or that the Uyver deck
was an unfit place for her to occupy as a
passenger, but admits that the purser did
tell her to go to tbe lower deck; that the
purser gave her the option to accede to the
rules and regulations or to go ashore at Do
boy ; that she went ashore there of her own
volition and without (laying any fare; that
the rules and regulations of the boat, for
the protection of passengers, and for tlie
separation of the while and colored passen
gers. were reasonable and necessary for the
prosecution of the business of the boat;
that the upper deck and the cabin thereon
were used solely by, and exclusively appro-
S Hated for, white jmssengers, and the lower
eck and cabin assigned tor colored (ias»en-
gers and respectable people; and that these
regulations were known to libel-
iant at that time; that tlie lower
cabin and deck were well ventilated,
the state-rooms perfectly private and well
fitted up, and the accommodations good
and ample; that the accommodations of
fered to her, and which would have been
provided for her. hut for Iter own conduct
in insisting to ride on the upper deck, were
good, ample and sufficient for her, and all
she had a right to ex(»ect or demand.
Another reason given by respondent for
the purser’s telling her to leave the upper
deck, wa* that lie hail been informed by a
passenger that she was a (>erson of immoral
character. But the evidence adduced, legat
ed, does not sustain this averment.
* docs it show any defamatory inten
tion on his part. Therefore, I leave this
matter entirely out of view in decidittg tlie
cause. I may remark that I find no material
discrepancy between tlie answer of l*aw
rence and the testimony of Richardson, the
purser.
The libellant testified that while on
jqier deck aft, the purser asked her if she
had a ticket; she said no; that he then told
her .die must go down stairs and ride with
the other colored (iconic; that from this or
der she appealed to the captain, hut with
out success; that she tendered the purser
the fare, live dollars, but he declined it,
telling her that the rules of the l»oat for
bade her riding on the up|*er deck or in die
up(ier cabin, for they were ajquopriated ex
clusively for the white passengers, and that

if she did not go down stairs he would put
ueroff at Dobov; that, declining to obey
the order, on the arrival of the boat at Di
boy she asked the purser if he meant to put
her ashore, and he said ye*; that then she
went ashore and remained there some five
hours, and then took another boat for
Savannah. On her cross-examination
she said: “1 demanded to rule in
the same cabin with the white people and
on the same deck, ami demanded the same
and equal accommodations which the white
tteople enjoyed, with the exception of go
ing to the tint table. * * I insist
ed on riding up stairs in the cabin, ami the
pur*er insisted that if 1 did he would put
me ashore at Doboy; I went ashore because
1 was afraid from the way he spoke to me
that he would pat me off. and having .ny
nephew I wa* afraid one or the other of us
would fall ovwboard. Nolmdy laid hand*
on me to put me ashore • * I did not
ask him if he could furnish me a state
room down stairs, nor did I care whether
he could or not. as 1 was unwilling to ri’le
on the deck when out of tny state room. 1
would have refused any state room he
offered me down stairs, unless he would
have allowed me to rule up a airs; bv up
stairs, I mean the cabin, which the purser
told me was allotted to white people.
There were plenty of white passengers on
board. 1 know the reason I went ashore at
Doboy; it was because I insisted on riding
in the cabin upstairs, and the purser
would not allow me to do so. But for that
refusal I wontd not have gone ashore nt
Doboy.”
Lawrence, tlie claimant and agent, testi
fied that there are two other decks auu cabin
besides the one referred to hy libellant in
her testimony; one deck, or a (tortion of it,
is for deck passenger*; on the other deck
are four state rooms, which are generally »et
apart for colored pa**engers, hut when there
are none, aud the boat is crowded, white
passengers are placed in them; that if libel
lant had not been content with these accom
modations. she could have had a state room.
These, he state*, are perfectly private and
nnvenient. and the fare from Darien to Sa-
annaii is five dollar.* for first-class, white or
colored (ussengers. That in the cabin set
apart for colored passengers no 5
allowed to ride, except those
have first class tickets and
colored, unless no colored passenger occu
py that deck, and the boat is crowded, as
stated; that the fitting up of these state
rooms is equally as comfortable as that in
the upper cabin, the (.aiming the same,
carpets not as comfortable as in the white
cabin, but the bedding is exactly the
in both cabins.
The testimony of Fleetwood, the master
of the steamboat, i* of like purport and
effect a* that of Lawrence. The master
also testified that libellant, while on hoard,
wa* noi.*v and exhibited much passion; that
ihe liad been playing on the piano, wnl *»*-g
around the cabin, and making henedf
g neral ly conspicuous, and tliat when she
wa* going a'liore at l>uboy he saw and
heard lier threatening the pureer. and
daring him to come out on the wharf, say
ing what she would do with him. And the
purser swears that libellant wa* not, to hi-
knowledge. treated rudely or roughly while
on board, and that it was hb purple to get
along pleasantly with her. The libellant
swears that she was treated by tbe purser
rudely and harshly, not decently or respect
fully. “He used no abusive language to
me,’with the exception of the tone of his
voice, just as if I was a brute or something,
fne way he treated me as a brute was. he
has not thought proper to declare that
s’eamboats enrolled and licensed to ply be
tween ports and places of the several states
shall be compelled to entry white and col
ored passengers in tlie same cabins and
state-roouis, this court must turn tu the
common law to ascertain Whether the rule
of the proprietors or Officers of this vessel,
the City of Bridgeton, in requiring colored
passengers io occupy separate cabins, sa
loons and stare-rooms from tho^e assigned
to white passengers, is a reasonable regula
tion and one, which of ri;ht, the common
carrier may prescribe and enforee.
Tlie right of a passenger to a passage on
board of a st« am boat is r.ot an unlimited
right. The passenger s I o tml to obey the
orders and regulations of the proprietors,
unless they are oppressive and grossly un
reasonable. Whoever goes on Utard under
ordinary circumstances impliedly con
tracts to obey such regulation*, ami mav
justly he refused a pa>sage if he or she wil
fully resists or violate* them. The City of
Bridgeton was held out to the world as a
common carrier of passengers, for hire,
consequently free to all proper (.ersons
who sought trans|Kirtatiou to |»orts
or places agreed on within the ter
mini of her route. Bat tlie vessel being
•bus o|*en to (•assengers did not strip
the owner* or master of the right to make
such suitable regulations a* would promote
the interests of the owners, and preserve
order and decorum. Nor, on the other hand,
could the proprietors, or master, lie required
to put lo.'setigers in the same cabin or state
room, who would be repul rive or disagree
able to each other. Sec. 5Otto, o04. In the
Westchester and Philadelphia railway com
pany vs. M iles (55 Pa. 2lK)j,the court decided
that a common carrier may serrate pA* ;
sensors in his conveyances, and that it was
not an unreasonable regulation, for it pre
vented contacts and collisions arising from
natural and well known repugnances, which
—e likely to breed disturbance* where white
«1 colored (lersons are huddled together
itlioiil their consent.
In the recent ease vs. the Board of Direct-
•set al., published iu Tint A.'I.vxta Oon-
sTtTCTiox, of February 20tli, 18751, and
trliieh involved the question a* to whether
colored children were entitled, as a matter
of right, to lie educated in tbe same selmol
with white children, the United Stales cir-
eoun for Louisiana answered in the
negative. Said Mr. Justice Woods, in de
livering the opinion ol the court. "Equality
of right does uot involve the necessity of
educating children of both sexes or age in
the same school. Any classification which
presumes substantially equal school advan
tages does not impair any rights, and is not
prohibited by the constitution of the United
States.' ‘Equality of rights does not neces
sarily imply identity of right.*.’ ”
Iu Halt vs DeOuir, 5 Otto, 485, error to
the supreme court of Louisiana, Benson,
the master of a steamboat, had refused a
colored passenger. Mrs. DeC’uir (the plain
tiff below) the privilege of the cabin set
apart for white passengers, notwithstanding
the law of Louisiana had declared that
common carriers of (lavengers should make
no discrimination 011 account of race or
color. Chief-Justice Waite, iu delivering
the opinion of the supreme court of tlie
United States, said that “congressional inac
tion left Benson at liberty to adopt such
reasonable rule* aud regulations for the
dis|Misition of tiassengers upon iiis boat
bile pursuing her voya*^* within Louisi-
irayr without a* scented to him uuist for
the interest of alt concerned. * * * \\ e
think this statute, to the extent that it re
quires those engaged in the transportation
of passengers among the states to carry col
ored (lassengers in 1/ouisiatia it. the same
cabin with white*, is unconstitutional and
void. If the public good requires such
legislation, it must come from congress,
aud not from the states.”
And Mr. Justice Clifford, in a concurring
•pinion, said: “It is clear that a steamer
carrying tiassengers may have seriate
cabins ami dining saloons for white persons
and persons of color for the plain reason
that the laws of congress contain nothing to
prohibit such an arrangement.”
The steamboat City of Bridgeton, like all
sssels engaged in trans|orting (tassen-
gers for hire lietween the several states, is
ranked a* a portion of the naiional marine,
and, consequently within the governing
I iower of the national legislature. Congress
tas not deemed it necessary or essential to
tbe welfare of the colored citizen to enact
any law forbidding inter-state common car
riers, hy water or land, from regulating the
business of tlieir vessels or vehicles
in such manner that the accommo-
datjons for colored passengers on
their respective conveyances, may he dis
tinct and separate from those assigned to
white passengers. Yet colored |iass«‘iigers
are entitled to accommodations as suitubic
a* those designated for tlie exclusive use of
white passengers. And I am of opinion,
on (>erusal of the evidence adduced, that
the cabin and state room* reserved for col
ored (lassengers on the City ot .Bridgeton
were substantially equal to those from
which the liliellant wa* excluded hy the
rule-* und regulations of the boat ; aud these,
>0 far a* they were enforced, were reasona
ble and highly proper, imposing neitiicr
burdensome nor inqiossible conditions on
libellant. And, a* to the other question for
decision, namely, the 'alleged illegal and
unjustifiable manner in which the liliellant
wa*, as she says, forced to leave the boat,
and the (tain, indignity ami humiliation in
flicted on her by'the officers of the boat,
this must be determined hy the sim(tie
weight of evidence a* in other civil cases.
And thus guided, my judgment is that siie
ha* failed to establish her asserted grievances
and mental sufferings.

Wh«t the English Papers Say — Pa
role’s Sister.
Parole’s victories in England hare crea
ted a great sensation in sporting circles
throughout the world. America is fast
claiming the lead in all snorts, and the JEn
glish field is frank enough to say:
Our American cousins have on the race
course fairly taken the backbone out of us.
But a few days ago and almost to a man we
were prepared to bet our bottom dollar on
England vs America on the race-course;
hut our bottom dollar would have gone,
and now we fain acknowledge that we most
concede the priority to the horse front over
the sea, for it is more than proliahle that
at the present moment Parole is the
best horse on the English-turf, except (ter-
haps his stable companion and fellow-coun
tryman, the Duke o| Magenta. The second
victory of Parole was hailed with acclama
tion, aud had hi* plucky owner lieen pres
ent on Tuesday he would probably ere this
have found his biceps considerably stiff
from the hand-shaking that would have cer
tainly lieen inflicted on him. Absent, how
ever, a* the owner of Parole is, our hand
shaking must lie done on paper, and heart
ily we (Miigratulate Mr. Ixirillard and his
confrere and friend, Mr. Robbins, on the \
pleasing result of the enterprise displayed
in bringing over a team of horses from
America, at a bad season of the year, to
tackle English race-horses on tlieir own
battle-ground.
’Tin not in mortals to command success;
But we’ll do mote * * * deserve it.
We have, heard it said that Mr. Lori Hard
ha* dune even more than this, for lie has
both deserved and commanded the fickle
goddess to bow to his will, and she suc
cumbed. An Englishman admin s courage,
whether in kin and cousins from across the
sea or loreigner*. Therefore it is that a vic
tory of this sort is so (topular with all from
lK*cr to (leasaut, and the only one rcgretable
circumstance in connection with it is that
Ihe owner of Parole was not present
to witness the enthusiasm displayed
when tlie son of l^eamington re
turned to the enclosure after lutv-
ing scored comparatively an easy victory
iu the city and suburban. We are a cun-
on* people. Our Gaelic neighbors send over
their horses to despoil us of many of our big
stakes, and .their horses run in a most In
and out manner—well to-day and badly to
morrow. They give us nothing in return.
Reciprocacy is an unknown word to them,
for we are debarred from competing in
most of their itntiortant stakes. Despite all
this we receive them o(ien-handed ana open-
hearted. and hail their victories with ac
clamation. There are exceptions, of course,
to this deserved genial welcome; but almost
unanimous are Englishmen in tlieir recep
tion of the American champion, for to par
ody the words of our great (Hiet’s poetry:
American mce-horsc from over the sea,
Britons all join in their welcome to thee.
But, while wc welcome the American
race-horse and admire the enterprise of the
owner and hail his successes, it behooves us
to l»n»k to our laurels. A few’ years ago
English race-horses were looked upon as
absolutely invincible. What does tlie study
of the calendar now reveal? Nothing very
gratifying to our national vanity; for,
mind you, in the way of horse-flesh we are
a vain people. We find that, passing over
innumerable races of a moderate class taken
from us, Glndiateur won the two thousand
and tlie Derby, tlie Hungarian-bred Kisher
is numbered among the roll of Derby win
ners, and could we produce nothing to^excel
Kin.seem in tlie Goodwood cup last year?
Of course the fact of foreigners de
feating us on onr own soil at our
own game is nothing so wonderful, for
thev bring to hear all their own appliances
ana means, with English breeding to boot.
But still they claim the credit, and still
remains the sling that in a few years foreig
ners have won from us the highest honors
of our turf in our national sport; and now
we must acknowledge tlie American race
horse—and mind, it is asserted by men of
honor ami judgment, that Parole is not the
best horse m his country—to be equal, if
not sutierior to anything we have on the
Knglisn turf. Therefore it behooves us to
look about and discover why these things
should lie; if they are but the result of our
decidedly, to a great extent, wrong system
of breeding; or whether we must submit
to it on the principle that like begets like,
and that France, Germany and America,
breeding from the best strains of English
blotnl, must be exjiected to take their
own (iart in our big races for the future.

she left New York last October she weighed

Lorilhml *hi(»|>ed his six yearlings to Eng
land iu company witli thedukeot Magenta,
Parole and the two-year-old .ITncas (the
latter having won the two-year-old stakes in
Saratoga), Papoose, although not the
strongest of the lot of six who had never
raced for a purse, was «*ertainly the most
beautiful. The other yearlings were Chero

These are yet to be heard from.

liest quality from forelock to to fetlock.
There is 110 unusual display of strength in
one (tart at the ex (tense of another. A
neater and more compact filly proba
bly never bounded over Newmarket
turf. Mr. William Brown, Mr. Lori Hard's
trainer, is not a man with an overflow of
animal spirits. In fact he looks into tlie
future of horse events without any_extra
pufling-out of hi* cheeks. But it is said
that a* this filly began to improve he be
came gay and grew confident of tlie outlook,
particularly partial to Papoose, for
is quietly developing wonderful
A prominent turfman, recently
from Newmarket, says that Papoose is now
‘playful as a (»et fox and pretty as a pic

This is likewise another victory for be
liever* in Leamington over Lexington.
While Uncas has only been victorious once
(his second race) in five races, having run
four times in this country and once in Eng
land, the little Leamington filly, who was
scarcely talked of, glided out of the dusk
aud lcu(K*d to the front in her first rush for
victory.
