New Richmond a town of 3.0(K) inhabitants in Clermont County, has a- bout TOO white school-children to 300 black. After the repeal of the "black . laws" two years ago, and the con sequent throwing open of the public schools of the Stateto children of both races on e- jqual terms, the negioes of New Richmond were persua ded to have their children kept in seperate rooms, and thus virtually allow the old line of distinction to be main tained. Rut one negro, Jas. Ringold, decided to insist nit on his rights, and sent his children into a room occu- pied by whites. Thelittle ne groes were abused and made miserable in every way, and finally Ringold appealed to one cent and costs. This showed the negroes generally that they could legally send their children into the rooms occupied by white children, an( they did so on Friday most exciting Sundays tbis place ever has witnessed. The strwts have been trow ided all day. j All other topics were for : got ten. M misters counselled XCr43 mninder of the term, nnd cos tly litigation, if nothing else, i sure to follow. There h a prospwt that u nmdamus will 1h asketl fa in the urir ning to com jel the School li'd to re-open the schools." Thes oubbreaku of ruce prejudice in Ohio (for the New Richmond incident is on ly the latest in a Ion?: series) Mciatil with the alarm now felt bv the in telligent and well-to-do white citizens of Topekn, Kansas, lest their city shall be bank rupted by the votes of the poor and ignorant negroes who flocked thither afewyrs ago; and with the unanimous protest of the whole Republi can press last winter against the proposed admission of New Mexico as a State, be cause of the ignorance of the white inhabitants of that Territory ignorance not so dense or wide-spreak as that w hich prevails among the ne groes in the Southern Stales. All these incidents serve to il luminate the Southern prob lem, and they ought to show the most partisan the need of charity. Hereafter, when we hear of some abuse of a Sou thern negro, by a Southern w hite, let us recall how negro children have been treated by whites in more than one Ohi o town ; when we find South ern whites complaining that t he unrestricted rule of the blacks would involve the com munity in financial ruin, let us think of Topeka's com plaint ; when are told by the Southern Democrats that the con trol of a Southern State by it's majority of ignorant blacks would be intolerable, let us re niemlxr that the Rebublican par ty of the North refused to allow the majority of ignorant whites in New Mexico, a Bhare in the government of the Union because such an idea was intolerable. The ''exodus'' of negroes from North Carolina is as suming largt proportions. The most striking feature of the movement is the fact that most of the emigrants go to Arkansas, the State where the Clayton murder recently occurred, and where, accord ing to Republican organs, the negroes are alloweil the en joyment of no rights. This would seem to indicate that the average negro does not care much for the reputation of u State or the opinion of a Republican organ. The sim ple truth about the "exodus" is, that it is a melancholy il lustration of the credulity of the race, most of the misguid ed people who are leaving North Carolina having swal lowed all the stories of the movement about Arkansas being a land flowing with milk and honey.
