BrlcUlayer?' Union.
t The Washington correspondent of the
Kew York Herald 6ays:
The African won't down at any?
body's bidding. He is bound, to bs up
in every place, and intends to smash
things generally or haye bis rjjjotfL The
bricklayers here Lave had a secoucTdose
of the Africab, and are in a terrible fever
because he insists,-as also does the Go?
vern mont-upon laying btickYona per?
fect equality with pale faces of the same
profession. At a meeting of their Union
on Thursday last, the bricklayers' com?
mittee appointed at the previous meet?
ing to examine'into tho subject, reported
during the eveniug that two colored
bricklayers were employed in the Navy
Yard upon the same footing with thu
whites, and Thomas Mahoney, Robert
Patterson, Ben. Myers, J. W. Elliott,
Richard Robey and Wm. Myers were
working with them in defiance of the
rules of the Union, and should, there?
fore, be expelled. Previous to the re?
port of the committee being made, oue
of the Navy Yard workmen, wns present,
and so bitter was the feeling that a mo?
tion was made to expel him from the
room? which the Preident declared ont
of ordor, as he was yet a .member of the
Uniou. A resolution of expulsion of (he
above named 'men wa3 odored and oar
ged, after' d?bale,' bV a large majority,
ne of the,cumber repotted by the com?
mittee has not worked ir, tho Navy Yard
since tho employment of -tho,? colored
men t?iere,': in consequence of severe
illn?ss, hut. ;as his politics Vcr*,' well
known and his bauio still at tacked lo the
brick masons" - roll iu tb o yard, they
labored under the impression that .they
would have ;ftb expel bim; as soon hs ne.
was able to work, and so made a complete
job of the affair by cupelling him ulong
with the others. At the previous meet?
ing, On the 3d of Juhe, if was under?
stood that .a comhiittoo of thoUniou had
been appointed to. wait on the Navy
Yard workmen who were members of
the Union, and request them to quit
work. For some reason or other this
committee never waited upon them, but
Thomas Mahoney, tho senior workman,
reflecting the sentiments of his asso?
ciates who had determined in a body to
stick to the Government, prepared- the
following letter, to be delivered to the
Union:
WASHINGTON, June 8, 1869.
B&cXl?t/ers' Union, No. lj Washington,
GENTLEMEN: At a meeting of the Uuion
held June 3, 3869, it was" resolved, b?y a
large majority' of the members, that 'my?
self and otl|er[ inenibers of thor Union
employed iu the Navy Yard should stop
work, or be expelled from the Union.
This demand is mado upon us from the
fact that colored bricklayers are employ?
ed iu the yard. I respectfully declino to
quit the Government work. Were your
proceedings conducted iu a spirit of jus?
tice nod humanity, you would havo no
cause to make such a demand upon me.
Were''yon to open your doora for the ad?
mission of colored men to your Uuion,
tho same as tho Government work in to
thom, the trouble would end. " Though
you exclude political discussions from
your councils, you uro a political body
or, at least, the majority are.. Political
is too mild a term to be applied to many
of yon. Tho veil with which you would
cover yourselves is too thin to hide your
deformity. Numbers of you kavo worked
witk colored bricklayers when they were
slaves without . complaint, and I am of
the opinion that if they were returned to
slavery to-morrow, yon would so alter
your laws that you would have the ines?
timable privilege of working with a co?
lored chattel. Your Union was barely
formed when you commenced your
threats agaiust the Government, which
ended iu your defeat, and you seem to
be keepiug it up with no better prospect
of success than on a former occasion.
It is said that I entered into certain
obligations when I joined the Union. I
admit it. But when it is demanded of
me to forsake my convictions of right
and duty to join with men to embarrass
the Government, and to make war upon
a portion of my own country-born citi?
zens, I will tako my stand on the side of
right, and have nothing to do with a
course so unrighteous as you would have
me to do. You have good and sensible
men among you; but they will not liston
to wise counsel. You are joined to your
idols, and it is best to let you alone. I
regret that there has been occasion for
my penning this letter. It is disagreea?
ble for me to enter into strife with my
fellow-men. A quiet corner suits my
ago and temperament best. Tho harm
Mint may como to me from being expelled
from the Uniou will not amount to much.
Wheu the Government has no longer uso
for my services, there will be some opou
ing for me by which I eau make a living.
Respectfully,
THOMAS MAHONEY.
GREENBACKS.- We waut a uniform
currency-tho legal tender currency-in
which the people will have confidence,
and from whioh tho Government will de?
rive, instead of private corporations, tho
profits of a national circulation. It is
evident that something will have to bo
done by Congress to place the currency
of the country ou a firm and satisfactory
basis. The present mixed systom was
only experimental, and has proved a
failure. We ure just drifting along under
it. There is no olement of permanency
ia it. The remedy is a simple one-tho
substitution of legal tenders for national
bank notes. We hope Congress, ns soon
as it assembles, will apply this remedy
and give unity and stability to our cur?
rency system.-Ne ic York Herald.

faot, with an array of officia! nnmos.from

magnetize, the publia mind. - -This insti?

a throng of depositors, who eagerly
availed themselves of the opportunity
thus afforded ns s safe place for tb eur

it was "like Cicaear's wife-above suspi?
cion"-while they feasted nptm the cre?
dulity . cjf_their. victims. Like the cat

falso security until the period arrives to
devour it. Not one dollar was-invested
by the stockholders of this institution by
which to securd the ut)8U?i>eotiug- depo?
sitors. This public guardian of private
funds suddenly failed. Thc stockhold?
ers, therefore, made mice of the deposit?
ors' funds. Among their victims num?
ber many poor widows, orphans, mecha?
nics, ana a host of others, whose little
earnings had been placed in snid bank as
a protection for themselves and families
in event of a rainy day, to say nothing
of the rich. Of tbe latter, a citizen of

This, Mr. Editor, illustrates tho posi?
tion assumed by the writer in your paper

practical operations and workings of this
nolle ?7istitiUion, designed principally for
the poor. There are, however, honora?
ble exceptions ia every grade or class of
institutions. Tho Columbia Savings
Bank rauks among the exceptions.
Nevertheless, the writer, in reviewing
their chatter, discovers no clause which
furnishes security or imposes any .special
penalty, worthy of npto, in the event of
default, to make good tho funds of their
depositors. The writer disclaims any
unfriendly feeling to institutions of this
character. On the contrary, ho believes
if their charters were properly shaped,
with restrietions, indemnities and penal?
ties, such os would throw around the
depositors a shield of protection for their
money, with a judicious corps of officers,
as represent the Columbia Savings Bunk,
doubtless they would provo a source of
convenience and profit to any communi?
ty in which they may be located. Insti?
tutions of this character rightfully be?
long to the people, and aro, therefore,
subject to assay. .'If they cannot stand
the crucible of in estimation, separate
the dross, and let tbe alloy be made her

AN EX-CONFEDERATE COLONEL ACCUSED
OF FRAUD.-Several weeks ago, one
Andrew J. Rogers, formerly a colonel in
the Confederate army, came to New
York, with the ostensible purpose of dis?
posing of property on Morris Island, S.
C., the whole of which he pretended to
own. He subsequently wont to Provi?
dence, lt. I., and there obtained $3,500,
on a draft signed by himself, from a real
estate agent named Frank G. Allen,
under the pretence of leaving valuable
property as security. As these several
representations were subsequently found
to be false, search was made for tho colo?
nel, in the course of whioh it was ascer?
tained that Bogers had escaped to New
York, where ho was followed by officer
Slocum, of tho Providence force. This
officer, assisted by detective Farley, of
the Central Office, arrested the fugitive
w-n Thursday night. He was arraigned
before Justice Hogan, at the Tombs, yes?
terday, when he consented to go back to
Providence, without waiting the arrival
of a requisition; so the Rhode Island
officer took bia prisoner back on an early
train.-New York Times.
MR. SEWARD'S LAST PROPHECY.-Be?
fore starting on his present tour, he
stated very explicitly that within a year
tboro would be a break-up of President
Grant's administration, whioh ho pro?
nounced tho weakest administration the
country has over had; and be assigned
as one reason for going away that he
wished to be as far off os possible when
the break-up takes place.

H cam ITT OF E sons H M EN.-The Paris
correspondent of the London Herald,
speaking of a farewell dinner given to
General Dix, on occasion of his leaving
France, says:
"Tho Americans are a great people,
but it is a pity that all their manifesta?
tions Bhonld have tue unseemly-appear?
ance of a puff. They pud themselves,
puff their incomes, puff their statesmen,
and are never so happy as when pro?
claiming the very high opinion they en?
tertain of their own merits."
There is too much truth in this; aud
on the other hand, there is nothing so
pleasing to the observer of human na?
ture, as exhibited in the average English?
man, as the sweet, retiring modesty of
his personal and national self-estimation.
If there is oue British quality moro
marked than auotbor, it undoubtedly is
the grace of humility.

Soven years ago tho PLANTATION BIT?
TERS were but little known. To-day
there is not a nook or corner of our laud
I where they are not fouud and used. The
sale bas reached the enormous number
of Five Millions of Bottles annually, and
i it is constantly increasing. It only shows
what can be dono with a really good me
diciuo, and a systematic course of mak?
ing it known. Perhaps uo medicine in
the world was ever so deservedly popu?
lar as tho PLANTATION BITTERS. GO where
you will, among the rich or poor, and
you will always find these Bitters in use.
Their merit bas becomo an established
fact, and we cordially recommend them
in oases of dyspepsia, loss of appetite,
chills and fever, headache, A-c., ??c.
