The presentation yesterday of a steel en- graving of Carpenter's picture of the “Signing of the Emancipation” to Howard University, a gift from Mr. Carpenter, was an event of in- terest. The engraving was hung over the plat- form, and about it draped the flag. Among the SPEECHES BY P: invited guests on the platform were the Presi- | dent and wife, Mrs. Elizabeth Thompson, Grace Greenwood, “Bessie Beech,” Mrs. penter, Mrs. Goy. Claflin, Mrs. Abby Hutel son Patton, Miss Jewett of Massachusetts, Mrs. Comstock, Mrs. Spofford, Mrs. Turner of Boston, Col. T. W. Higginson, Fred. Douglass, and Robert Purvis. @ exercises began with inging by the students, Miss Annie Casmond playing on the p Dr. W. W. Patton, the president of the Universi fered. a fervent mark. Marshal Fred. Douglass was next intr and made an eloquent speech, referring in pathetic language to the exigencies that led to the issuing of the emancipation proclamation, | he was greeted with rounds of T. W. Higginson was the next speaker, followed by a song from Mr.Normand Patton, with piano accompaniment by } Carrie Patton, a son and daughter of Dr. ton. After this Mr. Crock made a short ad- dress. Dr. Patton then said the President would favor the audience with a benediction | at least. = | SPEECH OF PRESIDENT HA A burst of applause greeted Mr. f said :—* 1 don't wish to disturb the feeling here, but I must thank thi (Mrs. Thompson) for her gift to the nation and then I shall leave you a message. al‘hough messages are not always iteful. T quite agree with all that has been said, yet it occurred tome that Mr. Douglass made a modest esti- mate of his race when he said they don’t build ships, they don’t build the domes you see. But who did build them? Such men as Adams and Sumner made their fame by their speeches | under that dome, and the speech jour colored brother has made us is better than making domes. But that is not my message. I would say the wisdom, the righteousness, and the grandeur of Abraham Lincoin’s act of emanci- pation no man willdeny. That it has conferred mnfinite Dlessings on our country, on both ‘a and on the world, very few question. This estimate of the act and of ils results will not be changed by the good conduct or the bad conduet of either race. But it is said th; the greatness of the blessing conferred on the colored Yr depends on their conduet. What they most dis what Burns calls the ‘gt ries privilege of being independent.’ this requires the willingness to labor and the prudence nd self-denial to save the fruits 'y young colored friends, let this. be among your good resolutions nd I will sa to the end th ndepender This speech was e Hy received. ton thanked the Presid resence, and Mr. C ft.
