It is said that the late Prince Con- sort of Queen Victoria at one time contemplated becoming a Freema- son, and asking initiation in the Royal Alpha Lodge, London, when it was “pointed out to him that it would be highly indecorous on the part of the Queen’s husband to have any secrets from her royal Majesty!” And yet- the Qheen’s father, uncles, sons and even a grandson were made, and some are now, honored Masons; the Queen herself being the patroness of many Masonic Institutions. The story is, to use a common phrase, “rather too thin.” SPECIAL NOTICES. St. Paul A. M.E. church 8th bet. D. and E. streets s. w. Rev. C. W. Fitzhugh, pastor. Services at 11 a.m. and 8 p. m.

Mr. Leon Voldez of Sara Bayon of Capetown, Africa, an African merchant, arrived in the city this week fiom Africa, on business with the Department of State, :all- ed at the Bre office Thursday morning, and presented the ed- itor of the Bez, Mr. W. Calvin Chase, with a box of african val- uabks, a gift from Dr. Blyden, president of the Liberian College. He also stated that he had a_ box. for Hon, Fred. Douglass, and the Vice Oouneil of liberia, Whois in thecity. Among other things Mr, Voldes said, that Africa is no "piace for Negro, the climate is too treacher, ous. His statement of Africa con- flicts with that made by Prof. H. M. Browne. Dr. Blyden says Mr Voldez is doing great work in Af- rica among the heathens, and those who believe in the Mohammeden religion. The present to the ed- itor of the Bux is highly apprec'a- ted, and coming from one of the greatest scholars, aud stateman in the worid, is an evidence that the work of the Buzz, is the interest of christian religion, morality, and the advancment of the oppressed, is esteemed by this distinguished Atrican, MR. DOWNING AS A POLITI- CAL ACROBAT, Mr, Editor:— Your article in your last weeks issue refering to Mr. Geo. T. Down- ing, calls to mind his attempt to be re-instated after being bounced from the House Restaurant. He had prepared and printed, two cir- culars to be distributed among Re- publican and Democratic Congress- men, begging in the most pitiable and hnmble manner that he be al- lowed to retain his hold, or that if he must go, that his son-in-law, Geo. Washington might have the place. The following paragraph in the circular gent to republican members and omitted from the one sent to democratic members, shows to what length a man like Downing will go when geeking office or place: Newport R. I., July 17th, 1870. * * * * * * * “Party fealty forbids that a faitb- ful member ofthe party, who way claim to stand among the very fore- most of his people who enjoys their confidence aud esteem, who has done as much as any colored man in bringing the party into power, should be, without a chance to ex- plain, thus abruptly treated.” How does that sound for a man who prates about his manhood and independence; that he has done as much as ‘“‘any COLORED man” in bringing the party into power?
