They d» Lot care for their younger asscci- ates. They scarcely me gnize that there is an equality between them.

An honest woman will not tole- rate an insult, but one of easy vir- tue will smile. A guilty woman often finds fault with a chaste one, and say evil things abuut her, but a chaste woman is seldom suspicious of her sex withvut great cause. Men often judge their wives by their own immoral acs. So did the Moor of Venice put to death his virtuous wife, because he was told that she was false.

Oe THE DEPUTY RECORDER OF DEEDS UNDER HON. FRED. DOUGLASS RESIGNS. HIS RESIGNATION ACCEPT- ED BY RECORDER MAT- THEWS. Col. Geo. F. Schayer, Deputy Recorder of Deeds of this District! for 17 years past, for reasons known only to himself and perhaps toa few confiding friends, saw fit to tender his resignation as Deputy Recorder. It seems to be conceded that it had not been solicited by the new Recorder nor that any in- timation had been made by him that he desired it. Col. Schayer has absolutely refused to give his reasons for tendering the sime and Mr. Matthews in deference to bis wishes refuses to say anything fur ther, than that he had not reques'ed nor intimated that he desired it. Many speculations are afloat concerning the matter. Itis claim- ed that the action of Schayer was the cause of the immediate return of Recorder Mattwes to Washing- ton who had gone to Albany to ar range his law business preparatory to remaining in the city permanent- ly; that he bad arranged everything satisfactorily to the employees of the office before his departure and that the actiou of Schayer immedi ately after he left Washington was for the purpose of securing imme- diate appointment during Mat- thews’ term of offive. Whether this be so or not, one thing is cer- tain that the resignation was promptly accepted. Col. Schayer has retired and the affairs of the office, do not seem to have suffered embarrassment. No appointment bas been made to the position and it is said that for the present nove will be made. — NEWS. Rev. J. A. Taylor ofthe African Miesion is in the city, and doing a good work. The complaints of the ¢ led citizens of Alexandria, Va, against Captain Webster of the Police force in that city, for the ! shooting ot ‘ute Anderson are still unabated. So frequently has it occurred that persons were buried alive hat an incorporated society has been organ zel in the city of Brooklyn, to prevent any burials n doubttul cases, until placed in the receptacle where all facts ne- © ssary to remove duub’s may be ascertained betore burial. A long letter from Rev. J. 1 Kansas, now missiovary in Kan- sas City, Mo., informs us of many useful things, including the pro and con wesiern sentiment of Mr. J. C. Matihews’ appointment as Recorder of Deeds. Mere talk of patronizing euch other in business, only shows that we uckuowle ige our obligations, but will never advance in busines. Give euch other the patronage. The city of Washington, so far as the poor are covcerned, is still being tbreatened with fivancial embarassment and destruction. A very strange way of introduc ing tue Maryland justice in the District of Columbia, will be seen by the following story told bya resident citizen und huckster iu this city: Some days ago, a Marylander, who was on t .e make, traded his horse, and because his triends laughed at him tor allowing him- self to be “taken in by a Negro,” he returned Newman’s horse and wanted to tuke bis own back again; he offered $5 as a difference for the cancel of the exchange; upon the refusal of which, the Marylander swore out a Unitea States’ warrant, cnarging New- man with horse stealing. The Attanta Cons itution, one of the thunder struck Southern papers, says the only northern one young Cunningham, Laws, a former pastor in Whichita, company that was everin the cou- federate army, was raised in south- ern Illinois, which numb red 90 men, and that ameng these, wus who served throughout the rebellion, and that he was the brother of Mrs. Senator John A. Logan. That fifty of them were killed in the war. The captain of them was Thorndyke Brooks, wh» has since bee-me an heir to nearly ove milli n. SOUTH WASHINGTON NEWS. L. G. Fletcher, Agent and Collector. The Seventh Baptist church of this city is having her share of troubles in common with others. Rev. Sandy Alexander, has re- turned home from his vacation. Rev. S. W. Madden, preached at the Va. Ave. Baptist church on Sunday. The boy whoset fire to Mr. Geo. F. Gray's house in Hi st., bet. 2nd and 3rd sts., was too small for pun- ishment and was excused. Miss Mary J. Stewart has left this city for Philadelphia. Mrs. Margaret Christian and daughter, Mrs. Anna Hicks, have returned from New York. Mr. Charley Parker, to the re gret of his many friends, lies very ill at 320 G st. Every moment in the week warns us ofa fashionable marriage which is soon to come out of 8th st. The Miss Masons of 44 st, are spending their summer in Virginia. The Foreign Mission Board, on African Work, held a meeting at the Virginia Ave. Bapt. chureb, on Tuesday last, and arranged for to-morrows collection. The Good Samaritans of the Dis- trict, are making efforts to build a Hall, embracing South and East Washington, with the prospects of loca‘ing it in this section. To morrow is akind of brethren dwell together in unity day ; as all of the churches with the exception of a few, will collect money for the African Mission work. In the afternoon at the Wesley Zion, Rev. Wm. H. Puilips will preach. The topics for discussion on the third day of the Wrshington Bapt. Association, are as follows: Order of church communion, Rev. Wm. H. Philips; christian evergy, Rev. J.H. Lve; the state of the country, Rev. S. G. Lamkins; the evils of the christian churches arising from the remissuess in discipline, R.S. Laws. Mrs. Mary Ford has returned home from her long visit abroad. Policy playing is much like ex- cursions, bush meetings, and pic- nics, more is handled, than is ever a benefit to the party who get the money. Many of the more thoughtful among us, are uniting with the Equitable Cvu-operative Building Association abd others from ueces- sity; theretore necessity has become a great teacher, for many impor- tant lessous are learned by earnest efforts. Zion Biptist S. S. is making great preperations for the 16th an- niversary, which will take place on the second Sunday in Sept. The Mt. Carmel Baptist church is undergoing a renovation. The city of Washington has both its whiskey traders and trieuds, but the people iu this section are preparing to battle against it. They also charge that charch members in every block signs the license for men to eell whiskey. The salutatory of the 16th anni- versary of the Zion Baptist S.S., will be made by Miss Mary M. Howling. The compiled sermons of Dr. Talmadge on marriages, are like the three great speeches of Hon. Fred- erick Douglass, food for thinkers and men of learning. The conference of prominent ministers of the District of Colam- bia, that convened with the Sev- euth Baptist church on Monday last, to listen to grievances passed a of censure upon the con- duct of Rev. J.H Winston, for irregularities and remissness in the transaction of affairs in the government of the church ; and for abusive language to the church tor calling him to account, and en- dorse the action ofthe church in his ex-cummunieation, but failed to find charges against him for ap- propriating their money to his personal benefit. Mrs. R.S. Laws is rapidly im- proving. Mr. Peyton Pierce is very low. ‘Tas communion with the Zion, First, Macedonia, Fvurth, Israel, aud MountHoreb Baptist churches on Sunday last, was fully enjoyed by the visiting pastors and peo* pie.
