The Repudlican’s cry of peccavi on the street- asters oes ape poin oo the Republican to make & stand in its demoralized retreat, requires however some attention, ss involving a question of veracity. We pointed out that every reasonable de- j mand of the colored people had been met by | the street railway company of this city in pro- | viding for them an abundance of firat-class } ‘ears, eqnal in évery fespect to those ised by 4obbe whites: and we contrasted the humane aad | corsiderate action of the company here, to the | rigorous, and in many cases, absolutely inhu- | mane treatment exercised towards the colored | man by street railway compsnies in northern cities. We saidin this: connection: _ _% The Republican has not yet told its readers } that the colored man has nowhere else in the | country the same SAL ten upon the street care that he hasin Waschington. In Philadel- | pis be has to ride upon the front platform, no | matter how bitier the weather, aod ix New York the restrictions upon him amounts to his | } -yirtual exclusion from the street cars" | To this the Republican replies :—« Tne reason | why we have not made such a statement to onr | readers is because ft is not true,” and goes on | to say: «“ We have seen colored people riding inside oft the treet cars in Philadelphia, and noboty seemed to find any fault nor did any person's dignity seem offended. 2 « But we pass on to New York. In that city, on some of the rontes, large, spacious c&rs, ana | plenty of them, are provided for colored peo- | ple. The cars are patronized as freely by whites as blacks. They are filled with every class-of people ike other cars. White persons } never stop to examine the classification of the |; cars; nor do they complain that any personal | injury 1s inflicted upon them by the fact that a neatly dressed colored maa is a fellow passen- ger. Upon other routes in that city no dis- tinction whatever is made. It-was not many days ago that we had occasion to ride In a car upon the University Place line, in that city, which extends to Central Park. The conduc. tor in stopping the car, responsive to the call of pedestrians, made no distinction in color. White snd black alike are conveyed oa that and other routes in New York‘city.” Now here is a point blank isene. Either the de publicon or this paper makes a mis-state- yarnt. Which is it? First in order Philadeiphia is mentioned. We suppose the #epyhlicen will admit the | Philadelphia £voning Bullen as good authority | On his eide of ihe question, and in the Bulletin | of the 15th we find a long editorial apropos to this very qnestior, headed Colored Persons | fu Railway Cars,” in which it says: « Philadelphia stands slmost alone in her | exclysivyeness upon this subject; but public opinion and tbe necessities of the case seem to | te gradua!ly operating to bring abovta change, | Sud itshonid be such a change as will avoid ovending honest prejndices while it looks to 3 e and tair play for all. } "+The encampme: (8 fer colored troops at Camp Wilham Penn afiracts a large number of dark | skinned friende of the soldiers to that locality, and come mode of public conveyance for them seems absolutely necessary.

The tact that these patient peop'e never complain, | is no reason why this cruelty should be inflict- +d pen them. We repeat that we are well | aware of te prejudice existing among acer- tnin portion of ihe commmnuity, and of the em- ents under which railw mp mies but we have often witnessed scenes giowlpg ovt of this prejudice, and corporate deirrence to tt. that have made our cheeks tin- gle with shome, or our lips qniver with indig- } auation.”” So iauch for the Rrpublicon’s Philadelphia street-car elysiums for the colored!
