THE PUBLIO SOHOOL8.
Wisdom and moderation do not seem
to be distinguishing characteristics of
even the most intelligent representatives
of the colored race in Louisiana. The
visit of the self-constituted delegation
of colored men Tuesday to Gov. Nicholls,
was not so much a protest against sep.
rate schools for white and colored chil
dren as a threat that it the recommen
dation of the committee of the School
Board is carried out the colored people
will organize themselves into a race
party and begin a furious political war
tare upon the whites. One of the dele
gation declared that if the programme
of the School Board committee were car
ried out It would be a "fire brand;"
anothet affirmed that the establish- t
meat of separate schools would be r
an insult to the colored race; An
toine, the late Lieutenant Governor,
thought there should be more inter- d
course between the races, and seemed t
to think it proper to force it by mixed I
schools, and much was said all around
about constituted rights and pledges and r
promises made by the Governor and the t
Democratic party. During the Inter.
view the attitude and utterances of Gov,
Nicholls were firm but kindly; and in the
spirit in which he met the delegation we
shall discuss the issue they seem deter
mined to provoke.
The delegation, some of the members
of which were colored men generally t
steemed in this community, would
have done more credit to themselves
and to their race had they employed t
the language of reason or remonstrance
instead of that of insolence and menace.
They ought to have learned by this time
that we have now a government of law n
in Louisiana, and that personal wrongs, ti
violations of the constitution and the
statutes, are remedied and redressed in
the courts, to which all have admission ti
and before which all are equal, and not a
by political revolutions; they ought also
to realize that this community has had
enough of turmoil and strife, and that ei
when they talk of making a fire brand n
of a simple social question and i
of reviving race issues and race
organizations, they antagonise the ma- h
pt1ial interests of the State and city and a
array against themselves and their peo- I
ple very powerful and bitter influences. t
Nay, more; they should consider
that if they attempt to carry out their
violent and revolutionary threats they
will render themselves amenable to the
law, and that the execution of the law fc
Is now it the hands of those who will b,
fearlessly execute it ,to the preservation t
of peace and good order. We make d,
these observations in no spirit of hos- 0o
tility to the colored people but to re
bake the spirit of insubordination to g,
both natural and statute law manifest- b
ed by their representatives and which ol
would be equally censurable it displayed
by.any other class or race in our popu- is
atlon. g
, And now let us consider this question is
on its real merits. The recommendation b
made by the committee of the School el
Board through its chairman, Mr. Archi- ti
bald Mitchell, in favor of the es- l
Ibrlshment of separate schools for a
~1ites and blacks, will be carried out. g]
lt is well for all classes to understand hc
$this at the outset. No threats of vio- I1
lonce, or of political fire brands, will pre
vent this. If there shall be any persons Ib
of any color or race, who may feel a
grieved by it, they will find it better to
seek redress, as Gov. Nicholls suggested, T
by resort to the courts to measures which M
may subject them to criminal prosecu- th
tion and conviction. But why should g
any one feel aggrieved by the establish- tb
ment of separate schools? There has
been no proposition to exclude either ol
whites or blacks from the public schools or
or to furnish the children of one race ol
with superior hd the other with infe- tl
The recommendation of qi
's committee is, that, public m
of a certain grade, afford- w
.1l eurtain educational facilities, gc
sahll be maintained for white chil- br
dren, and that precisely similar schools co
shall be mintaitned for colored chll
,..
Sdren. If this proposition Is an Insult to
the eolored foet, it is also an insult to
- the white race, for it proposs to treat
both races precisely alike, and the white
bchildren are to have no more right to
attend the colored schools than the
colored children will have to attend the
white schools. The separation Is not
made for the purpose of putting an
affront upon one rwo or the other, but
to avoid and remove from the school
room those race antipathies, of theexist
enoe and aggressiveness of which the
expressions of the colored delegation
are a striking and melancholy proof.
These antipathies exist, and whether
they were created by God or are
the outgrowth of circumstances,
they must be recognized and dealt with
so that the cause of education and the
interests of society may be as little
affteted by them as possible. With
Sseparate schools, the children of both
races may receive all the benefit from
our publle schools they are capable of
receiving; with mixed schools the race
-. antagonisms will necessarily, in the
ri fature as they have in the past, in great
part, destroy the benefits of the public
school system, and convert a public
blessing into a public evil.
'the Democratic government of Lou
or isiana is disposed to act with great lib
erality in this matter. The burden of
sustaining the free schools, and it is no
light one, falls almost entirely on the
white people. The colored people pay
a very insignificant school tax, and yet
no one, not even the extremest Demo.
crat, has suggested that there should be
in any discrimination against the colored
children. The Democratic party is
pledged to a free school system for all
the children of the State. But it is not
pledged to mixed schools and social
equality. It will carry out Its pledges
n In letter and spirit; it will afford tbe
white and colored children equal edu
s cational facilities, and it will accord
whites and blacks equal rights before
n the law. If the colored people are not
" content with this and with the good
will and aid and example of the whites,
to seek to educate their children and
work out the destiny of their race in
quiet and peace and obedience to law,
° they will have only themselves to blame
° for their failure to profit by the bless
legs of freedom and good government.
There is a difference of opinion as to
° the status of the colored race. We may
believe the negro incapable of reaching
and sustaining a high grade of clviliza
tion; but there are men of larger expe
rience and greater wisdom than ours
who believe that he is, and that his
present condition of ignorance and
degradation is the consequence of cen
turies of servitude. This Is an ethno.
logical question and should have no
part in our political discussions. We
recognize the fact that Providence has
throwin the white and black races to. -
. gether In this country in about equal 1
numbers, and It is claimed by a large i
and intelligent portion of mankind I
that the blacks are capable, by instruc- I
tion, of reaching the plane of clviliza- E
tion occupied by the whites. Clrcum
stances have thus made it the duty of I
the white people of Louisiana, as an en I
lightened and Christian community,
to give the colored race an oppor. I
tunity to prove this proposition and t
to aid them in doing so. It is the
purpose of our government and peo. t
pie to give them this opportu. e
nlty. But If the colored people begin I
their experiment by attempting to dic
tate the conditions upon which they I
will accept aid and encouragement; if I
they shall threaten the peace of society I
at every step they take, and organize a t
rebellion against every institution the I
wisdom and experience of the gov- t
ernment establishes, but which does e
not conform to their aggressive pre
Judices, they will make only retrograde
steps, and before half a dozen years i
have passed they will give to history t
another melancholy illustration of the 1
incompetency of their race to rise above I
the level of savages or slaves.
BERNAU AND THE BAOKBONN,.
Mr. Augustus Bernau appeared be
fore.the Property Holders' Union night
before last in an attempt to correct cer
tain alleged errors and mistatements,
derived from a report of the Legislature
of 1776, which were embodied in inter
rogatories propounded to Mr. Flanna
gan relative to the reality of the Back
bone Railroad Company and the verity
of its pretensions and statements.
Mr. Bernau makes a very poor show
ing of contradicting the testimony
gathered by the committee of the Legis
lature. What he fails to accomplish
by any admissible evidence, he seeks to
eke out by his own unsupported asser
tion. What weight should be given to
Mr. Bernau's assertions may be justly
estimated from the following autobio
graphical deposition given by him be
fore the committee of the Legislature in
1876 :
Mr. Augustus Bernan, sworn, said the Back
bone Railroad Oompany has a domicile in the
city of New Orleans. Their office is in the New
Orleane Elevator and Warehouse Company. The
sign of the company is outside of the building.
They have an agent in the State or Louisiana.
Mr. Higby is the agent of the company, and I am
an ex-cflclo agent, being one of the owners of
the road. Service of petition and citation can be
made lawfully on Mr. Higby and myself. Mr.
Rigby to the authorized agent to bring suit for
the company in the State of Louisiana.
Without inquiring into the authority
of an agent of a " domiciled company,"
or into the process by which an owner
of one share becomes e.-oficio agent of
the company, we content ourselves with
quoting against Mr. Bernau's state
ment the deposition of Mr. Higby,
who says that his "authority does not l
go so far as to sue for the company or
bring suit for and in the name of the
company."
It is true Mr. Higby thinks the com
o pany oan be sued through him, but do
oo not ntplatl how this can be legally
it done without the oorrespon'aling right
te of bringing suit for the corypany,
to But Mr. Bernau, the '.oficto repre
ae sentative of the comp lny, proceeds fur
ie ther to explain his nerolo service in be
ot half of that insdttution. After stating
ni that Mr. R llby had advanced eleven
ut hundred dollars to secure signatures to
1- a petition addressed to the Governor of
It- Louisiana, to prevent his signing the
oe LoulsianaOentral Railroad bill whioh,he
n charges,was passed by fraudulent means
), and fraudulently promulgated, he says
er he would have done whatevet he could
re do to prevent the passage of the bill by
,s, the Legislature. What, however, he
th did do, and his % hole interest in the
be said corporation, Is thus related by him:
le Log before, I loaned money to members of
th the Legislature to help them out, they being
personal friends of mine.
I was allowed to draw fifteen hundred dollars
m from New York to be sneed by me for the benefit
of the company, in ease such means be resorted
to by other companies, to oheok them, which I
oe refused to do.
I know that the Backbene Railroad Oompany
was obtalned by the payment of one hundred and
at twenty-Ive tlousand dollars to the Inoorporators
i of the company.
I anqttired ownership in the sompany by claims
0 againei them, by services rendered and by
money of my own expended for them -sabout
twelve hundred dollars.
But here again Mr. Bernau conflicts
with Mr. Higby, his co-agent, who
frankly confesses that he advanced
o10 1000 to pay members of tfle Letislaturc
fe for the passage of the amended charter
ty of the Backbone Railroad, and not, as
et Brother Bernau says, to procure signa
' tures to a petition to the Governor to
a prevent his signing the Lisullana Con.
tral Railroad bill.
is But why waste time and paper in ex
posing the flagrant and audacious mis
t statement which Bernau sought to
al impose upon our too susceptible, but
a well intentioned, follow-oltizens of the
e Property Holders' Union, when we have
" at hand the testimony of Major John
H. New, who represented, as attorney,
re a large creditor of the Backbone Rlail
t road Company, and must be presumed I
to have a strong Interest to establish
' and ascertain the existence of such a
d corporation? Major New deposed to I
the Legislative Committee as follows:
, I know of this company having no domioll
e here, or transaoting any business here for ee-.
Serl years past. In my opinion, the Backbone
0omnany is not a live corporation and, 1 will add,
t w never Intended by Its oorporatore to be one."
iy The case of J. Mathers, Jr., vs. the
ig Board of Liquidation is fixed for trial
e- to-day in the Fifth District Court, and,
e- for reasons which we shall presently
re state, we venture to express the hope
is that it will be promptly disposed of, so
d that the transcript of the record may
1- reach the Supreme Court before the be
,- ginning of Its approaching term at
o Monroe. This proceeding, so far as the
e funding of the bonds the conversion of
is which is asked by the plaintiff is con
-. cerned, is a mere formality. Mr.
4J Speaker Bush, in his communication to
e the DEMoonRAT, which we printed on the
d 13th Inst., said, in reference to these
,. bonds, that he had not the remotest
i- doubt that the Supreme Court would
i- direct that they be funded, nor has any
if one else any doutLt on this point; but
t- what we wish to impress upon the hon
r, orable Attorney General is the vast im
portance of a speedy determination of
d the matter.
e The great need of Louisiana during
the coming summer months is an
abundance of money for the rapid and
s cheap moving of the splendid crops
which we have every reason to antici
y pate. That abundance we, unfortu
If nately, do not possess. Every banker
y in this city has begun to notify his cue
a tomers of an impending scarcity of
e money and there is scarcely one of
them who will not testify that this
a scarcity will be mainly due to the fact
that Northern and European holders of
a Louisiana bonds have recently thrown
s them upon this market and removed
y the proceeds from the State. The prao
e tidal effect which a scarcity of money
e will have upon our trade and industries
every business man knows. It will be
seen in high rates of interest and the
difficulty which even perfectly solvent
men will find in obtaining pecuniary
accommodations necessary for the suc
t ceaeful conduct of their business.
- Now, what possible remedy is there
for such a state of affairs ? None that
'e we can see except the influx of Northern
and European capital seeking invest
ment in Louisiana console and we know
that there is a large amount of such
y capital ready and eager to take that
direction so soon as our Supreme Court
will have finally determined the ques
y tion presented in the case referred to.
What the decision of the courts will be
has been forshadowed by Speaker Bush
o and is perfectly well known here, but
foreign capitalists, like all others, are
o full of caution and distrust and will not
y come to our relief until every shadow of
apprehension in regard to the intentions
of the State toward its creditors is re
moved. Prompt action upon the case
in question will, we are certain, tend
greatly to effect such a result and re
lieve the stringency of our money mar
e ket, and this fact must be our excuse
for commenting upon a case pending in
na court of justice. If the interests in
volved in it concerned individuals only
we should not have said a word on the
r subject, but we are so thoroughly con
vinced of the great importance of a
speedy determination of this matter,
r that we feel that we perform a public
,f duty by calling to it the particular at
tention of the officials charged with the
conduct of the case.
"It will soon be noticeable that saneages are
laying around promiscuously. And then doge."
r -Times.
We have heard of hens laying round
eggs, but we have never before heard of
"a round promiscuously," nor did we
I know btfors that eausages laid them.
Will our neighbor tell us what "a round
promisoously" is, and what will be the
issue of the incubation. And why, we
would like to know, will the sausages
lay the "round promisououslles" first,
and the dogs afterwards. And an
other prdposltion: Suppose that the
1 dog should eat the sausages before they
laid the "round promlesououslies," what
f would become of "the round promlsou
ouslloe," and how could the dog stand
it and what woulh the sausage think
Sof it?
I The adoption by the Council of the
ordinance granting permission for the
construction of a freight railway track
to the elevator on the levee Is the first
step in the direction of the develop
ment of a large grain trade between the
great West and this city. Since It is
only "the first step that costs," we hope
that the other steps necessary for the
complete development of this trade
will soon he taken.
N. O. PACIFIC RAIIWAY.
All great works require continued
power to keep them In motion. The
great Corliss engine will stand motion
less without the power of steam.
The New Orleans Pacific Railway,
now in its vigorous youth, cannot go
forward without the power of money.
The funds heretofore contributed have
been well applied, but its cash resources
are almost exhausted, and it needs pres
ent help.
The people of New Orleans desire and
Intend to have this road, and all they
want is confidence that it will be built.
The trouble is, that what Is every
body's business Is nobody's, and the
community, while Intending to help,
still leave It to somebody else.
Now, as one mode of securing the gen
eral co-operation of the public In this
enterprise, the undersigned friends of
the road have now open, for a few days,
an offioe on the ground floor at No. 27
Camp street, where rte-ry littalahitanl of
lids i'ilfl is earnestly invited to call and
Interchange views, and to define what
he will do.
This Is intended to be the voluntzary
action of the people, independent of any
other effort which may be made.
Every facility for Imparting Informa
tion will be extended, and the presence
of as many of the friends of the road as
possible is solicited, to aid by their
presence, their counsel and their means,

TO TIlE nUMMER TOURItST.
Those of our citizens, who are fortunate enough
to be able to seek respite from the labors of the
business season Just closed, and to recuperate
their energies at some of the many delightfn
summer resorts to be found in the Northern
States and Oanada, will be glad to learn that the
old favorite Jackson route, under a vigorous and
efficient management, has become one of the
very best traveling thoroughfares in the country.
Hundreds of thousands of dollars have been
expended, as we are or' dibly informed, during
the past twelve months for new iron and steel
rails, new cross-ties and new bridges, and to.day
It may be safely said that no road south of the 1
Ohio river surpasses the great Jackson route in
smoothness and perfect safety. We have had
occasion, during the past few weeks, to travel
quite extensively over that road, and we can thus,
from actual experience, bear witness to its ex
cellence in every particular which goes to consti
tute a good road.
