The grand jury, at the present term, found true bills against Dublin J. Walker, lute School Commis? sioner, and B. F. Michael and others, late 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. 1M74. after he bad vacated the office of I School Commissioner, and while occupy-1 ing his scat OH a State Senator. The certificate was dated back by him to No? vember 21. 1871, so as to bring it within the provisions of the Act of tue Genend Assembly, which makes teachers" certifi? cates of that date preferred claims on th treasury by setting aside the poll tax for their payment. Tlx- proofs of guilt in these last named eases are said to bo so inclusive that a conviction is certain. [Cir. I'liinn-livruU. Kx-Senator Brownlow lues not always | give good advice, either tu white or co? lored men. He too frequently Substi? tutes passion :ind prejudice for reflection ' and calm judgment But on a recent occasion, since the passage of the Civil j j Rights Bill, he presented to the colore 1 {people of his own and other sections j of the country some excellent ad? vice in relation to their behavior under j 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 [ I obey all the lHws of the land, carefully I avoiding everything calculated to array j the prejudices of the whites against them, or to bring about :'.npleasant 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, lie will add to the strength of hi.-: position in the estimation of good men I of all parties. ~PhU<?lel)>hhi Times.
