I James Reed. Chairman of tho late t Hoard of County Commissioners, and his I co-commissioner, Madison Pendergrass. convicted of official misconduct, left Chester to-day for the penitentiary?the former (white") sentenced to a term of two years,.and the latter (colored) for thrco months. The grand jury, at the present term, found true bills against Dublin J. Walker, late Schooi Commis? sioner, and B. F. Michael and others, lato School Trustees, for issuing fraudu? lent school certificates in the year 1874. Walker is Senator from this County, and is charged with issuing a fraudulent teacher's pay certificate on November 21, j 1874. after he had vacated the office of School Commissioner, and while occupy? ing his seat as a State Senator. The certificate was dated back by him to No? vember 24, 1K71, so as to bring it within the provisions of the Act of the Genend Assembly, which makes teachers' certifi? cates of that date preferred claims on the treasury by setting aside the poll tax for their payment. The proofs of guilt in these last named eases are said to be so conclusive that a conviction is certain. [Cr. Cnion-JivraU. Ex-Senator Brownlow does not always f[ivo good advice, either to white or 00 ored men. He too frequently substi? tutes passion and prejudice lor reflection end calm judgment. Hut on a recent occasion, since the passage of the Civil Rights Bill, be presented to the colored people of his own and other sections of the country some excellent ad? vice in relation to their behavior under the new state of affairs. He says "the best thing the colored population can do is to accept the situation in which these laws place them, and to reverence and obey all the lKws of the land, carefully avoiding everything calculated to army the prejudices of the whites against them, or to bring about unpleasant rela? tions between the races." If the ex-Se? nator will now rap sharply over the knuckles that class of politicians who in? flame the passions and prejudices of colored men for their own selfish pur? poses, he will add to the strength of his position in the estimation of good men of all parties.?Philadelphia Times.
