IS THE NECillO A ''llllOTIIEN'T The negro is a man, but lio is not aliroili rr. There nro those, and the number is not ' insignificant, nor is learning lacking mnong them, who will hold thnt we have gone too fur in making the concession villi which wc tart ; and who insist that the earlier pro genitors of the negro were to be found dis torting themselves in the tops of the cocoa- nut trees of fervid Africa. Wo nrc not it believer in this theory, mainly for the reason that it is obvious the negro at no singe of his existence as a class has been possessed of sufficient capacity for progression to have elevated himself from the condition of a baboon to one approximating, at least, that of the genuine Max. The history of tho negro, such ns it is', for tho space of at h ast two thousand years, is well known. During nil this time lie has positively made no prog ress. The negro of tho days of A i Untie and of Seneca is the negro of to day. As tho gorrillu of this hour constructs his don after tho same fashion that bis brutish an cestor did ages and ages ago, so the hut of tho wild black is of tho samo miserable pat tern and finish that it was when the Temple of Minerva or the Pyramids of Epypt were erected. Of this there is no doubt; and the same observations will apply to bis men tal progress, or rather can bo taken in illus tration of tho total want oftlnit. high natur al intellectuality which marks the true man as developed in tho white race. Our re marks of course apply only to tho negro in bis native country and in his natural condi tion. Of that hSijher condition to which some of them bavo been brought by inter course with tho white race, wo shall speak presently. But"it is said tbat tho degraded condition in which tho negro is found, anil in which lie has so long remained without tho slightest change, is owing to tho want of suitable in struction ; that ho lives in an isolated coun try which is rarely, and some portions of it j never, penetrated by missionaries or travel ers; that, in a word, ho is absolutely with out the means or opportunity for elevation in the intellectual scale. To all of which wo bavc one answer which wo shall put in the interrogative form. It is this: TI'io civ ilized tbe v:hie man ? From what undis covered land camo the learned traveler with models of art and talcs of seienco to awaken the slumbering intellect of tho Caucasian, and lead him to a sphere of light only Lo low that of tho spirits of tho blessed do parted? No. The white man civilized him reff, impelled thereto and assisted by, the Divino afflatus, which tho Maker of all saw proper to bestow in an incomparably great er degree upon bim than upon tbo negro. True, the degree of civilization to which wo have arrived is tho work of ages. Jiut it began at onco and progressed steadily, with only sucb inteiTuptionsas wars or pestilence might occasion. Wc repeat, wbat lias the negro done for himself during all there long ages ? Literally nothing. And no eircum ptanco of climate, or of food, or of social position as relates to his fellow, cau excuse him, for to all those his natural tastes are exactly fitted. His excuse, and it is a valid one, we hovo already hinted at. Ho was created inferior to the white man. These, then, being the volativo positions fif the whito Man and tho negro, is tho lat ter n "brother" to tho Caucasian? In considering this question we shall at once throw out all tho cant about tho great broth erhood of tho human kind ; all being the work of tho same creator, etc., for cant it is when used as denoting tho relationship of brother between classes of individuals vastly differing in visit go as well as in physical con formation, and where tho degree of mental superiority is so great, taking as tho gage, what each class liris accomplished for itself, that thero is absolutely nothing to throw into the African side of the balance. Besides, tho logio of these eager hunter. after new objects for brotherly affection would make all created things brothers to be clasped to our bosoms ; and indeed high authority can bo found for considering tho very reptiles which shall devour our bodies as holding that near rclationshin to us. This is a kind of relationship which is tho result of a common origin, and it exists among all created things, and it is only in this sense that tho negro can bo called brother to ns. For nono of tho convention al requirements of lifo can ho bo treated as brothor. lie is not our brother to walk with, to cat with, to sleep with, neither to eonnsel with. As well might tho habitually dirty cart that carries tho rcfuso from your shambles call tho elegantly constructed car riage brothor, because they came from (i,0 bands of the samo constructor. As well might tho lordly lion call tho Jackal, his cringing pilot and scavenger, brother. As to the few instances of negroes posses nod of any considerable amount of acquired knowledge, they are markod exceptions to the general rule marked, bcoauso among the many millions who have been brought in contact with tho whito, and of whom hundreds of thousands were free, it would bo difficult, perhaps, to And ouo hundred who havo forwarded In the least degree tho arts and sciences. LI is natural incapacity is no fault of his own, nnd exists fur wiso purposes ; and to visit him with our reprobation for that which ho cautiot control would bo prepos terous cruelty. Let us only bo thankful for our own better state, and show our gratitude by visiting with our superabundant light tho windows of the dark temple of bis soul. But let us hot dishonor tho high position which an all-wise Creator lias given us. THE SI RltATT Til I A L. This protracted and important trial has at last ended. At 12:30 p. in., on Saturday last, tho Jury came into Court and said they could not agree ; and they woro discharged by J udgo Fisher. Surrutt was very much depressed at tho result, and said to bis brother that he would havo preferred any verdict to going through another trial with tho consequent long imprisonment and sus pense. I ho next trial if tried at all, will be in December term, another Judge prcsid ing. After tho Jury were discharged, Judge Fisher showed his spite by reading an order directing tho name of Mr. Bradley, sen. counsel for Surrutt, to lie stricken from the roll of Attorneys practicing in that Court, on account of on alleged assault upon the rJuugohyJWr. JJraillcy, said to have been committed during the progress of the trial .mere was tremendous excitement, thou. sands of people assembling, nnd liijluls and other toys of (ho kind being freely display ed. But Mr. Bradlev Went riuii'flv In lit oinee, ami tlic excitement subsided. There was a foolish minor that Mr. Bradley had challenged Judge J'islier, but this was cir cuiuioii ouiy lor l lie purpose of creating prejudice against Mr. Bradley. The whole of the Washington bar are "down on" Fisher for his high-handed meat-urn, am say that he 1ms no right to dismiss Bradley A meeting was to be held on Monday night on tlie subject. The Jury Flood all the way through four lor conviction ami eight for acquittal. More than one hundred thousand dollars ot the peoples money was expended in tlii useless trial. - .

" 'our. j lew snort months since, any meas ure or man which Judge Woodward' might have "endorsed" would have met with tho Doctor s most profound and most pious con deuinatioii. J ust now bis paper is engaged in trying to impress upon the world the assumed fact (hat the nut-nice: candidate for the Supremo Bench, Judge Williams of I'Oiinccticut, is receiving (he "high endorse ment" of J udgo Woodward. This, accor ding to tho Doctor's logic, should damn the man, politically. ISo nioto it bo !1 But what of this high endorsement? It amounts to this. Williams, in tho course of bis narrow experience managed (o get one or two ot lus one-lioisc cases into tho Su preme Court of Pennsylvania when Mr. Justice Woodward was on (ho. Bench, and in the consideration of the ca.-c and in mak ing up a written opinion, as is customary in that court, the chief Justice happened to mention in the ordinary and somewhat store otyped complimentary way the individual who presided in tho Court below. This is all ; and "high endorsement" such as this can be found for every Judge in Pennsylva nia who has occupied tho bench any consid erable length of time. Come Mr.' lln.ul- licnn, you are resornng to small thine. Where is tho miiVoWy acknowledged legal ability of your Yankee candidate? Where liia world-wido reputation as a lawyer and a jurist such as Judge Sharswood cniovs? Echo answers, where I it. j:sco. Mexico is just now a land of blood ; not blood shed in legitimate warfare, but by the hands of a majority triumphing over a fal len minority. It is estimated that since tho fall of Maximillian at least six hundred prominent officers of that unfortunate monarch's army have been led out and de liberately shot, to say nothing of the many hundreds more of less note who have met with n similar fate. Where all this is to end God only knows.' At the last accounts Santa Anna was a prisoner at Vera Cruz, in tho bonds of tho Jaurazo party; and having been spared so long, there is a chance for his lifo. Jaurazo, the President of Mexico seems to be power lens in (he hands of bis Mood thirsty gene rals. The body of Maximillian had not at last accounts, been given up to the Austrian Government, which power makes a consider able show of patience in the matter. But we think wo see trouble ahead. How and Brutal Assult. On .Sntm.. day afternoon last, a drunken fellow, said to bo lately from Johnstown, committed avery ueauiy nssauit on a respectable woman named j'ccij:, at waterman & Beaver s store. It appears this "Rough," who had been im bibing too freely of "blue ruin" commenced tho row by assaulting a littlo girl, daughter ......11 oiuier, a larmcr. Tho father re monstrated with him when he tuTned and knocked Mr. S. down. Somo of tho employ cos of tho above firm, then interfered and tied tho scamp, but he subsequently got loose nnd madly graspod a stono and hurled it with all his force into tho store, which was crowded with people. Tho missilo struck Mrs. Dcet on tho back of tho head with torriblo force, knocking her down. In fall ing sho struck her head against tho countor, injuring her still more. Sho was carried to her homo shockingly injured. Since, that time she lias been moro or less in a convuls ed state Her ease considered oritical. The ruffian was arrested and placed in Jail. Tho only wonder is tho blow from the stono hurled with such forco did not kill the woman outright As it is, she may not re cover. ZtanuVd LittUigenctj Having rooontly learned that certain In dividuals havo gono through (his County, circulating that wo woro "fighting" Senator Buukaliw, we fool it our duty both to our self as well as friends, to make some exula nation. In tho first place we have not been "fighting" Senator Buckalew, as has Dcen alleged y some of his pretended friendj), while canvassing the County in the lute campaign for County nominations. This report was raised and circulated, by wicked and designing men, for political purposes and no other. We oro able to substantiate this fact, which alono should satisfy any sano man as to our position towards tho honorable Sena tor, that eur friends repeatedly stated to those who claim to bo tho rper.ial advocates of Senator Ruckalew, that if they (who woro fultely spoken of as opposed to Mr, Bitckalkw) should hovo control of tho County Convention, they wero willing to pass any resolutions that might bo written in favor of Senator Buckai.ew's official courso in tho Halls of the United States Senate. This faot was understood, at least by Kmc who claim to bo the upeciul friends of Senator Bi.CKALEW, and whether this information was ever conveyed to him is no business 'of ours. If those who desire to appear as Senator Bi;ckai,kv'h rpc.cial friends saw proper to connect his immo with any of the candidates for (. ounty offices, and thus invite opposition, it was not our doing nor that of our friends; and wc, in no manner, feel responsible for Ins appearing in tho contest lor County offices. Ilia pretended lriends, alone, have to answer to him for tho dragging of hii mine in (ho campaign, inasmuch as tliei made his naiuo (ho sola icsuu m several of (bo Townships in the County during the Into contest. . W i ,. ... m nai,weasK, mm renaior ki'ikai,kw h name, or his policy, nssonio of his friends (alked about, to do with selecting men to till our County oltietM. What had ho to do, directly or indirectly, more than any other individual, in luakliiL' Connie iioiiiiimtintiK? We say, nothing. We do not prclend that ho should have been brought in question in (his way; neither do wo see any good reason why tho cry should have been raised, that wo were "lighting ' Senator I!i:i'KAI.kV. We were willing, and did, so far as wc woro concern ed, make- the issue upon the merit of our candidates, and not upon iiidieidimU who were out of tho contest. Wo havo never identified with, oi dragedinto, political squab bles those who, in our judgment, should take no part, or lot in the campaign. We have always Ik'cii able to light and win our battles honorably and without resorting to such small contcmptahle things. A e have always endeavored to keep Sen ator BtX'KAi.Ew 's name out of our County squabbles after office, thinking that ho slood above such issues, and that he was content to leave the people of the County settle their lispules for ollico in their own way. But in the late campaign, in several Townsbips, his namo was freely used, certain candidates made bis special favorites, and all others hold as being opposed to him. Wo feel justified in making this explana tion of our course towards tho distiiitruishcd gentleman in question, that our friends throughout the County may see and under stand that wo are clear from introducing tho name of Mr. Ruckalew into County poli tics, and those who havo, did so for the solo purpose of riding into office upon his back, I and we leave this mattor with them to settle as best they can. Ifonnmi.E MrnnEit at Hazi.kto.v. On Friday of last week n man named Xeal Devaney was arrested at Hazlclon for the murder of his wife, and after a hearing bo foro Esquiro Longshore, bo was committed o the Luzerne County jail, at Wilkesbarre, to await bis trial. It appeared from tho evidence of witness es on tho examination, to whom Mrs. Deva ney had relftffd her history, that sho was Married to tbo murderer in Ireland, about a year ago. Uoth being poor, sho lived out at servico until she had earned enough to pay their passage to America, l.'pon arriving at New i'ork, their funds wero ex hausted, and it was arranged that sho was to go out to service in (bat city, whilo her husband would proceed to lla.lcton, where ho bad friends, and work there until such time as circumstances would enable him to send for her; nnd the better to cnablo her to procure a situation, it was agreed that she should pass asa single woman-Davancy's sister. JJcvancy camo on to Uaaleton, whore ho contracted an intimacy with anoth er woman, of such a nature that they were to bo married on Sunday last. In tho mean time letters passed between Dovanev and bis wife, and finally ho agreed to meet her in Eastou, and did so on the 2ud of Julv. Hero he told her of bis relations with the other woman, and that if it was discovered that ho wasa married man he would be killed. Sho, however, insisted upon nccomponing her Husband to J Inssleton ; ond havinir no money, they walked there. Upon arriving there ho took her to the house of a John McKclvy to board. By agreement sho went from there to msot bim on tho outskirts of tbo town at eight o'clock on Wednesday evening. That was tho last seen of her alive. Ivot returning, suspicion was excited against Devaney, ho was arrested and search made for tho body of his wife, which was finally found in tho neighborhood of the spot whoro sho had stated sho was to moot him, shot in tho breast and her throat cut from car to car. Tarties living in tho neigh borhood testified to having heard a pistol shot and screams bctwocn ten and eleven o'clock on Wednesday night. A short dis tanco from the body woro found the hat and net, with blood upon them, indicating that after being shot sho bad started to run, but bad fallen, and her murderer coming npon her had cut her throat. There is no doubt that her husband, Noal Devanoy, who is about twenty years of age, is tho murderer, and that he committed the foul deed for no other reason than to get her out of tho way, in order to enable him to marry another woman, who also is a victim to his villainy.

Mr. Richardson is widely known a ono four most brilliant journalists and writers. No other Author has traveled over so much of our vast, western domains, and wo know of no one who can so well describe what he has seen. He is always intern (ting, gonnr- ally amusing, and, bettor still, invariably truthful. The volume before us is nceonipaiiicd by an acotirato and miutiln map of tho entire region beyond (ho Mississippi, ami is i-le gantly printed and profusely illustrated will over two hundred engravings from origiona photographs and sketches from (he pencils of Biersladl, Nast, Hennessy, Darley, JVnn Stephens, Forbes and other eminent artists. which are rndhi hemitiful and worthy n xaininalion as specimens of art. Many of thorn nro set into the body of tho text, after (ho popular slylc of Lossing's Pictorial Field Book of (he Revolution. It is a credit both to American art am' authorship, and is not only-tho most valu able work (rom Mr. Richardson's nen. but y far tho best, and most complete history of the great est ever isMiicd. Its descriptions are photographically vivid. It blonds infor mation, pathos, fun nnd legend with full practical and minute accounts of tho farm ing, mining, traiding, railroad building nnd other great interests nnd resources of our much talked of, (bough heretofore little known, new States and Territories. It is the product of vast labor, in travel and per sonal observation, and is destined to have an extraordinary sale.

Tho fact that tho U. ft fJovern ment considers a second lien unon tho n nd a good investment, and thnt some of (ho shrewdest railroad builders of the country have already paid in fivo million dollars upon the stock (which is to them a third lien), may well inspire confidence in a first lien. 8th. Although it is not claimed that there can bo any better securities than Gov ernments, mere aro parties wno consider a first mortpago upon such a property as this tno very best security in tho world, and who sell their Governments to re-invest in there bonds thus securing a greater interest Oth.
