Several days ago Judge Embrey of the Court of Claims made complaint to the officers of the ‘Third Precinct that William Ward, colored, was trying to collect money on the strength of a letter he carried with him. Ward had been arrested on the same change e Years ago, and was well known to the police om Yesterday morning Lieut.

Upou louking around the leutenant saw Ward standing at the door of a house with a Jeter and book in lus naud, and he was placed Under arrest. At the station Ward sald he and Dorsey traveled together, and shared in tne | money collected.

Dr. Lindsay, of St. John's Church, West Washington, delivered a lecture at Curtis Hall last evening entitled “Fresh Impressions of Old England,” giving his hearers some of the results of a holiday spent in England last summer. He de- scribed, in a pleasant chatty manner, various| scenes in the country districts, talked of the climate, of the traveling factlities, of the hotels, of the churches and of English politics. He talked of the English people, and, speaking of the English young lady, sald she “fs not So graceful and fascl- nating as fer American cousin, and has not her wonderful knack at dressing or flirting; but for that perfection of form that needs no help from art or artifice, and that beauty of face that health and color and a refined, frank expression | give, the young lish lady ts, the equal of any daughter ot our Mothe Eve.” ‘He warned his hearers. ‘The differences in the intel- lectual traits of Americans and English were an- alyzed; while the slowness of English speech was commented on as a disadvantage, the moderation of their Janguage was appla “In a word,” said he, “Engilsh and Americans are alike and un- ike.

This he ascribed to the 365 public squares and to the grumbling letters in the London Times. The picture borrowed from Linnaeus “clock flowers,” a figure to illustrate London's position in Europe, a clock that Indicated the Ume of day in Europe, whose streets gave indication of the political con- dition of Europe. It was the refuge of socialism, ot liberty, of art and literature. Here Mazzinl, Louls Blane, had gone from the continent, and again the Emperor had come there, and tn this great cosmopoiitan city all could find circles of sympathizers. He gave many interesting personal Tecoilections of Carlyle, George Eliot, Cardinal Manning and Spurgeon. Speaking of Carlyle, he criticised Froude severely as haVing raised up a ‘sham Carlyle, The Grand Army of the Republic. THE NEW HALL SOON TO BE OCCUPIED—THE DECO- RATION DAY EXERCISES. ‘The membersot the Department of the Potomac, G. A. R., expect to occupy their new hall, in the Cornwell building, in May. This department will then have finer quarters than any fn the country. A movement 1s on foot to have the national head- quarters established here permanently. Now the headquarters are located wherever the residence ot the commander-in-chief happens to be. De- partment Commander Burke has, as stated in THE Stax, issued a general order to the Department of the Potomac in reference to the Memorial Day yarade. He states that ‘in view of the approach Ing national military drill, which 1s to take place in this city in May next, and the possibility that the visiting military bodles may act as escort to the Grand Army of the Repubitc on Memorial Day, itis recommended that post_cominanders w upon the comrades of their respective posts the propriety of uniforming themselves. can be done at a trifting expense. ——_. ‘The Potomac Flats Case. In the Equity Court yesterday, in the case of the United States against M. F.

THE RAILROAD NEGOTIATIONS, Me Talks ‘Hepablicam Members ar ane Foumenees Legishavares STATES’ RIGHTS AND CIVIL RIGUTS—REFUBLICAN AXD DEMOCRATIC PRINCIPLES CONTRASTED—AN BXTRA Senator Sherman delivered an address to the ‘Republican members of the Tennessee legislature, in the legislative hall at Nashville, yesterday. He said he felt that the differences which grew out of ‘the war now hold a large body of honest and patriotic citizens of the South from co-operating ‘with the Republican party who were, in his judg- ‘ment, in sympathy With it. He said he thought the people of Tennessee could secure from the Re- publican policy, more and greater benefits and advantages than can possibly be conferred upon them by the Democratic party. «when I first ¢ntered political ite,” he sald, “T was in hearty sympathy with the majority of the people of Tennessee. I was a disciple of that school of poUticsof which Henry Clay and John Bell Were the leading apostles. I was taught to belleve that te Ce oa of xhe United ‘States: ee ond of Federal it Ua ate ae SE construed, not strictly, lke an indictment, not like @ bond framed By a usurer. which @’cun- ning, Portia, might construe away by subtle reasoning, but a ‘of liberty, to be construed Mberally, and so as to carry out dll the objects of STATE'S RIGHTS. “Twas also taught tolove,cherish and respect the rights of the States, and to regard them ‘as the agents of the people for local purposes, pre cisely as the General Government is the agent of aie poole for national purposes.

This, at the theory I have been taught, and’ if any of you, reared in a different school, have inherited jeal- ousy 8 suspicion of federal’ authority and of es- pecial reverence for that of the State of you may find in this the germ of the controversy fought out in the war. If I understand the PRINCIPLES OF THE REPUBLICAK PARTY, would say they are embraced in the trinity of unton, Constitution and country—the preservation of the Union; the maintenance of the full powers of the Constitution, and the growth, prosperity and grandeur of Our country in ail its parts as itis Row or 1s to be. ‘These ideas we inherit from the wisest statesmef in American history, and now, since they have been reaffirmed by the War, there 4s nothing to divide American citizens by sectional lines but prejtdice and n “This was not So before the war. Our fathers found in most of the States a system of servitude inconsistent with the gentus of her institutions. ‘They did not undertake to deal with it, nor was the feeling against slavery confined to sectional lines. ‘The most eloquent denunciation of slavery came trom Jefferson and Mason, and it had its {n- terested defenders. both North and South. Our fathers found it and left it asa local institution to the States, but provided that fugitives from service escaping from one State to another should be surrendered to the owner, “THE CONTROVERSY ABOUT SLAVERY arose first as to newly-acquired territory, but this was settled from time to time by compromises, Which Were acquiesced in by both political par- ties, It was beheved by such statesmen as Henry Clay and John Bell that the compromise of 1850 Was the end of sectional controversy, and {t must be remembered that it was a Democratic states- man from the North inthe mad pursuit of the Presidency that re-opened the controversy. I had been a member of the Whig national conventions of 1848. and 1852, and had supported Taylor and Scott, both Southern men, but I felt a sense of ‘Wrong and injustice done by the repeal of the Mis- sourt compromise, and it led me into the Republi- can party.” Now, after the lapse of more than thirty he said he looked upon the repeal of the Missor compromise as ing less than a Ce therefore, he with a great mass of NortheraWhigs and Demécrats, as a patriotic duty, resolved upon the election of Abraham Lincoln. He said that in this preliminary struggle the majority of the people of Tennessee were with,him for the preser- vation of the Union, After the War, he Said, both sides thought that the abolition of'slavery was the n result of the conflict, and it ‘seemed to the Republicans that if the slaves were to be free, they must be armed with the privileges of freemen, and these were secured to them by constitutional amend- ments. EXFORCING CIVIL RIGRTS. ‘The attempt to enforce these rights by national suthorities has, thus far, partially failed, and now it is conceded that, under the limitations of the Constitution, the rights of the citizens of a state can only be enforced t! rh state or na- Uonal tribunals, and, where public opinion is in- ‘tolerant and jurors will not do their duty as a citi- Tor the grossest wrong, except the right Go sct Frateto where his "rights willbe respected. * * Nowrong, be said,can be done to the humblest (ey Se no aeee aoe wats reactil uy comm y at large. “I was gas to hear. Passing through several of the therm States, conservative citizens say that public sentimept now revolts at the unlawful methods to defeat the free exercise of equal rights ofcitizens that have been adopted in several States and are still in what are known as the back coumties of the South, As long as such methods are resorted to there will be the Keen sense of wrong and injustice to the injured parties, and those who practice such offences will ‘the énd suffer for it. Sectional feeling will con- Unue to exist as long as large masses of people, whether poor or white or black, are denied their rights to share in self-government. 10 GET RID OF THE COLOR LINE. “We appeal to the manly spirit of our own race to protect these freedmen from the lawless injus- tice and cruelty of all those of our race who may hereat ‘seek to deprive them of plain constitu- Uonal rights, either by open force or by taking ad- vantage of thelr ignorance. If the kindly spirit stated by Senator Vest 13 ‘the eoloriine ‘will disappear from American politics, and we can then look only to the safety, development and power of one ‘and united country. ‘The freed- man in the full enjoyment of his rights will divide between parties as other citizens do, and his labor ‘will become the great factor in the wealth and prosperity of the region in which he lives.” ‘THE TARIFP. Referring to the tariff, Mr. Sherman said the internal-revenue taxes, yielding $100,000,000, could be easily dispensed with at any time with- out injury to amy one, but urged that the duties on imports couldnot be done away with or reduced Without disaster to American industry, AN EXTRA SESSION WILL BE NECESSARY TO RELIEVE ‘THE FINANCIAL STRINGENCY. Criticising the want of a fixed finangial policy by the Democrata, he said: “The silver, which our Democratic friends favored as the cheaper form of currency, which the Gov- ernment bought at $1 an ounce and coined as money at $1.25 per ounce, was stored: away in vaults, instead of being represented find used in the form of certificates for the purchase of gold coin and bullion, a8 previous administrations fad ‘aM, accumulation of money ‘the life-blood ot when the money cannot be applied tothe pay- ment of Sayers debt, as heretofore, this admin- istration no tio) no ex, Gicut to reduce thd surplus tre dent will not allow it to be expended to improve our rivers and harbors.
