This law was not disturbed the era daring the of reconstruction. war, In and survived fact, it was about. forgotten that: such a law was among the etatutes of the State. Some time ago witnesses went before the Grand Jury and gave testimony which resulted in the indictment of a colored man and a white man, who were charged with having played together a game of euchre. The law had not been repealed, and as the ¢vidence was clear the men were convicted. They took an appeal, and cided that the ‘tresnits of war’’ and the conamendment had, in effect, repealed the law.

THE STOLEN MESSAGE. The message of Mr. Hayes is probably one of the weakest State papers ever sent to-Congress.
