Derrick, of NewYork, for some time, have got themselves in ahole. Dr. Derrick will now, it is said, proceed and indict these men for criminal libel. In the last weeks issue of the New York “Age.” there appeared two affidav~ its, purporting to be genuine, charging Dr. Derrick with having robbed several widows out of mon ey, ect. The affidavits it is reportea were obtained by fraud, as it will be seen by an affidavit” frem.the. same party. THE AFFIDAVIT, NewYork Sept., 14th, °89.

Some giddy creatures have sent us the detunct corpus of a dead turkey that looks like it had made about four trips through a cotton gin. We don’t know why they thought we wanted it, as we are not running a bone yard this year. A sight of this turkey would make a wolf sit down and swear offand cry. Don’t do itany more, dear friends. If you’ve got a straight, respectable turkey to send in, send it, but we don’t need any mortuary records just now. + THE PHIOMATHEON. There was a large crowd present at the Philomatheon Literary society last Wed- nesday evening to listen to the paper of Mr. John E. Bruce, entitled *‘A blot on the Escut heon.” The paper was well written which showed thought and study. It was dicussed by Messers. Symmons, Letherwood, Campbell and others. On motion of Mr. Symmons, Mr. J. H, Crom- well, of the ‘‘Adocate,”” was elected sec- tary. On next Wednesday night a pub- lic meeting will be held in the Galbraith church, under the anspices of the literary, on southern outrage: All are invited. a ae THE PLEASURE OF EDITING. Editing a paper, said a proyincial edi- tor, isa pleasant thing. If it contains too much political matter, people won t have it; if it contains too little, they won’t have it. If the type is too large, it it doesnt contain enough reading matter; if the type is to small they can’t read it, If telegraph reports are published, some folks say they are nothing but hashes up; If they are omitted, they say there is a want of enterprise. If we put in a few jokes say we are nothing but rattle-heads; if we omit jokes, they say we are an old fossil. If we publish orizinal matter, they condemn us for not giving them se- lections; if we publish selections, folks say we are lazy for not giving them what they haye not read in some otiver paper. If we givea man complimentary notices we are censured for being partial; if we do not, all hands say we are a great boor. If we insert au frticle which pleases the ladies, men become jealous; if we do not cater to their wishes, the paper is not fit to be in their houses. If we attend church, they Say it is for effect; if we do not, they de- hounce us as deceitful and despeaately wieked. If we speak well ofan act, folks say we dare not do otherwise; if we ceu- sure thev call us a traitor. If we remain n our office and attend to business, folks ay we are to proud to mingle with our fellows, if we go ubout a bit, they say we had better stay at home and get on with our work.. If we do not pay ail bills promptly, folks say we are not to be trusted: if we do pay promptly, they say we stole the money. —“‘Exchange,”? be PERSONALS. Hon. John M. Langston is in the city, Hon.

Robt, Johnson, pastor. The intro- ductory sermon was preached by Rev. Joseph Matthews The fol- lowing offizers were elected for the ensuing year: Moderator, Rev. J. H. Lee, ot the 3rd Baptist Churca; vice-moderator, Kev Joseph Mat- thews, Mt. Zion Arlington; clerk, Rev. Wm. H. Phillips, of Anacos- tia; corresponding secretary, Rev. S J. Lamkin, of Mt. Carmel; treasurer, Deacon W. L. Laws, of the 3rd Church. The association had quite a harmonious and pros- perous session, with the selection of four or five new churches and about 2,500 members, besides ad~ ditions in the old churches; and from the present outlook, it will not be long before all the churches in the District will be in one asso- ciation, a combination devoutly hoped for. One of the things op- enly done by the association was to pass a resolution, requesting the 4th Baptist Church to change its name from that of the 4th Baptist to that of the Metrop litan Baptist Church, this church being by far the largest and most commodious Baptist church in the city, being but a foot smaller than the Metro- politaa A. M. E, Church. Upon a whole ihis was the most succets- ful session the association has held for many years. It adjourned af- ter a three days session to meet next year with the Virginia Ave. Church, Rev. R. 8. Laws, pastor. SOUTH WASHINTON NEWS. The Mt Bethel Baptist Asso~- ciatiov met with the Enon Bapt.

At the ministers’ meeting on Monday morning last, the sub- ject of Southern outrages was in~ troduced for discussion by the Rev. Dr. George W. Lee, which was ably discussed by the minis- ters, whose arguments were strong, forcible and impressive. A com~ mittee consisting of R. 8. Laws as chairman, George W. Lee, H. C. Robinson, J. H. Lee and Wm. A. Credett was appointed to draw planus and resoiutions expressive of the sentiment, condemning the eonduct of the Southern white people toward the colored.
