The special attention of our colored read ers is called to the Presentment of the grand Jury for the June Term of the -Court of Darlington county which we publish in an other column. This jury was composed of ticefae colored men and four white men, and their presentment is unanimous, and unspar ing in its denunciations cf the peculations, theftj and villany of the County Commision- ers of Darlington County. The colored men “Very Good-looking bat Can’t Come So Congress says to Cadet-ship Broker WniTTSMORK : The Washington correspondent of the Baltimore Nun, gives the full particulars of the refusal of admittance to the notorious Whittemore as a member of the House. The correspondeut of the Sun says : ‘ The case of Whittemore, of South Caro lina (formerly of Massachusetts,) was dispos ed of very promptly by the House.

But I defy any one, curious in the art of criimuatiou, anxious to make a capture, to m it. Meaning them no wrong, my conscience is is still void of offence, and I am sure any judicial tribunal, where justice holds its even scales, would acquit me of any criminal inten- t i<m and discharge me from the odium, which s ome men, who arc not troubled with “light offences,” seek to fasten upon me. Whittemore schools, have been openly rob- btd the impoverished citizens of Darlington, o' thousands of dollars. This bold paper dearly shows to us that the colored people, rom under the influence of dishonest, men white men, are not countenancers of rascality nor the friend of rascals.

During the proceedings Whitte- more sat in a seat near the main door of the hall, quietly taking notes, and after the vote was announced, went to the cloak-room, took a glass of water and retired, no one speaking a word to him. He complains very much of General Logan's course, as he charges that it was mainly owiug to the latter's represen tation that he ran again for Congress and was re-elected. General Logan made a fierce speech against Whittemorc’s admission, say ing. among other things, that it was a ques tion for members to decide for themselves whether they would admit a man who had resigned to avoid expulsion for a penitentia ry offence. Even the Radical papers rejoice over the exclusion of Whittemore- The New York Tribune says : “ The good name of Congress has been preserved from this last defilement, and that a line has been drawn somewhere.” The New York World makes the point, that the vote excluding Whittemore extends beyond the man himself to bis negro con stituency. andbayond the constituency to the Congress and the political party that created it. It used to be said of slavery that it de graded labor by the contempt it caused for those who performed labor. With equal truth (says the World.') it may be said that negro voting degrades the elective franccise by the contempt it causes for those who ex ercise the franchise. The practical working of negro reconstruction is seen that its very authors pronounce its results disgraceful. It has foisted into Congress a set of scalawags and carpet baggers of whom this renal Whit- tcmorc is a sample ; and Congress finds no way to protect itself against the disgrace but by denying the right of the people to select their representatives, and to exercise their prerogative of condoning their offences and giving them a new trial. The judgment in Whittemore's case is substantially right; but the principle on which it rests ought to have been applied at an earlier stage of the ex periment, and have prevented this revolting degradation of Congressional constituencies. The N. Y. Tlen-ld: “'Whittemore's Icad- them.

'A correspondent of the Geneva Courier relates the following story ofthe Kate Morgan the little steamer which for more than a gen eration has plied on Caynga Lake, her own ers obeying the behest of the first proprietor, to “run her till she busts:” Before the chancellor Livingstone stemmed the current ofthe Hudson, yet after the little Clermont had stirred the quieter waters of the Collect pond, the whistle of tho Kate Morgan awoke tho echoes in Taughanic Glen, and tier paddle wheel dashed the spray upon Cayuga bridge. There is a bit of romance attaching to her name and building. Old General Morgan, of Revolutionary fame, had a noble estate on the eastern bank of the lake, not far from where the present Wells College now stands. Between his only daughter, a lovely girl of eighteen, and young Fulton had long existed a tender at tachment, which, however, the poverty and obscurity of Robert led the General to severe ly frown upon. Fulton went to New York. He labored hard long years in perfecting his invention; his day of triumph came, and then wrote to the stern father relating his success and asking for the daughter’s hand. “Nay,” wrote back the incredulous old soldier, “I’ll bcleivo what I see with my own eyes. Come you back, scapegrace, to thelake, build and sail a steamboat past my own door, and then, aud not till then, shall you have my daughter Kate.” Need I say that Fulton came joyfully back, that.a steamer was built as circumstances would permit that she was launched and in due time did sail triumphantly past the Generals door! But let me add that, according to the express stipulation made by the sly Robert Ths above Department will fee priaptiy at tended to. and all work in this line ix-cuted^ on iho most sntisfastory teims.

Josh Billing ou Marriage. Marriage iz a fair transaction on the face ov it. It it an old institushuu, older than tbe pyramids, aud at phull of hyragiipbicks that nobody kan parse. But there ain’t but darn few phi-.lks, who put their mouey in matrimony who tfoitld set down and gire a pood written opiuyuu whi on arth they cum to did it. This iz a grate proof that it it one ov then! natural kind ov acksidents that must happen just az birds fly out ov the nest, when they have feathers enuffj without being able tew teil why. Sum marry fuf buty, and never diskover their mistake , thia is lucky. Sum marry for inetiey, and—don’t see it. Sum marry ibr pedigree, and feel big for six mouths, and then very sensibly cum tew the conclusion that pedigree ain’t no better than skim-milk. Sum marry tu please their relashuns, and are surprized sum learn that their relashuns don’t care a cues for them afterwards. Sum marry because they have been histed sum where else ; this iz a cross match, a bay and a sorrsl; pride may make it endurable. Sum marry for lore without a cent in their pocket, nor a friend in the world, nor a drop ov pedigree. This looks desperate, but it iz tbe strength ov tbe game. If marrying for love is not a success, then matrimony iz a dead beat. Sum marry because they think witnmiu will be scarce next year, and live tew wouder how the crop holds out. Sum marry tew get rid of themselves, and discover that the game was one that two could play at, and neither win. Sum marry the second time to get even, and find it u gambling game, the more they put down the less they take up. Sum marry tew be happy, and not finding it, wonder where all the happiness goes to when il dies. Sum marry, they can’t tell why, and live, they can’t tell how. Almost every body gets married, and it is a good joke. Sum marry ia haste, and then sit down and think it carefully over. Sum think it it over carfully fust, and then set down and marry.

How to Rise Refreshe;j—Every per. sou who toils daihf at any kind of labor re quiring great physical exertion should be extremely careful to practice a ‘ogular system of ablution at the close of earn day’s work. Sometimes a person may bcccmc so complete* ly exhausted as to render tHis anything but an inviting performance; yrt by its omission a great deal of refreshment whi<-h tho hou:s of repose are designed to impart i»Jost. To be cleanly is a strictly religious deny, aod is essential to sound and refreshing slumber, heuee the labor of kcep ngone’s person clean is amply repaid by the elasticity which fol lows nightly ablutionshefi.ro retiring. Heed this advince, and the reader will sleep sound ly; disregard it—go to bed unwashed, and you wiil rise in the morning unrttVcshed; with feelings of lassitude which the exertions of th« day will hardly be able to remove.
