A TELLING REBUKE To THE RACE’S ENEMY. From the Sunday Post. Recently there bas appeared in a number of journals of the country an elaborate and positive state- ment that the colored race of the United States have inaugurated a secret political organization with a view of casting the colored vote in current political contests without reference to the political convic- tions of said voters in favor of that party which will undertake to give them special consideration. It is further suggested that the advo- cates of said organization affirm that the colored voters hold the balance power in a number of great commonwealths of the Re- public, and that their votes com- pactly organized and solidly deliv- ered to one or the other of the political parties supplies the best and only protection of the rights of colored people. This rumor, relative to the supposed existence of a new secret political organiza- tion, has provably grown out of the fact that a vumber influential col- ored gentlemen, including several editors of colored newspapers, have recently advocated the wis- dom and necessity of concerted action on the part of colored people for the protection of the civil aud personal rights that have, in some States and sections, been systemat- ically invaded, and to that end have advised organization. What- ever the source or purpe ; of these representations, the existence of such a secret political organization is not to be credited. The founda- tion of such a party has never been contemplated. The colored voters of America are neither revolutionary nor un- scrupulous. They possess none of the qualities oat of which such a party could be compacted, and none of the instincts and tenden- cies which would prompt its crea- tion. Organized and concerted action for the protection of imperil- ed civil and personal rights is legitimate by any class of citizens, but the protective action in these allowable cases should be open and free, and not secret; and should seek the accomplishment of its ends by moral rather than political agercies, and find its expression in all cases, and especially the one under consideration, mainly through the creation of that just and righteous public sentiment that will place equal and sufficient safe-guards about the rights of every American citizen. The tem- per of our people and the genius of our institutions are opposed to secrecy a8 element of political action. Publicity in political affairs, with us, is justly conceded to be an element of strength and not of weakness. When you add to the secret quality of political action the race characteristic it becomes a mon- trosity which a free people will not encourage. In the present condi- tion of parties the German, the Irish, and the colored vote, com- pactly organized and cast of race lines, would constitute a balance of power between the great national partisan organizations, and weuld give victory to any party to which it should go. If sueh race organi- zations should exist, there are posibly some politicians in each of the political parties who, in the event of a great party emergency and for the purpose of achieving a party victory, would be willing to utilize for a time the vote thus organized. But the dominant thought and ruling spirit of the Republican and the Democratic parties would alike view with alarm the introduction as a perma- nent element in public affairs of a secret political race organization ; and, if need be, the very parties that in the heat of partizan con- tests invited the co-operation of these race organizations would ultimately combine to crush them as the common enemy of both. The colored race are proud of their citi- zenship; will continue to protest against and resist the inyasion of iheir rights, and will never be content to exercise them by suffers ance. As men they caunot do legs. But they propose strictly American methods to vindicate American rights. They have never, for a moment, contemplated indirect, concealed, and covert methods as| either necessary or allowable for their protection. The record of this people entitles them to just consideration, and as one of their humble representatives, I will not permit myself to believe that their claims will be perma- nently overlooked or disregarded by the American people. We have attested oar fidelity to the nation in its hourof peril by freely giving our lives for its pro tection; we have promptly and with wonderful rapidity taken in the thoughts and adopted the methods of the great people of whom we are no insignificant part; | we have patientieytly and cheerful- | ly, by willing, generous expendi~} ture of our energies, contributed | our magnificent quota to the grand | material resources of the nation ; | we have shown ourselves apt schol | arsin acquiring the qualities of | conservative and intelligent eiti-| zenship; we have rejoiced and do | rejoice in the still new and blessed | light of freedom; we are ready to} share equality with our brothers: of the waite race the bardens as| well as the blessings of free gov~ ernment, and we ask, expect, and as securely as God lives, and the right shail prevail, we will ultis mately receive full justice from the American people. The secret race organization ex- ists only in the minds of the sensa-| tionalists who have given it curren- cy. It has never found place either | in the thought, the conscience, the purpose or the action of the color- | ed race; and the prejudices and | fears that the circulation of such a | rumor as this may create are utter- ly groundless, and should not for a moment be entertained by thonght- ful and intelligent men.

Coolidge, HARNESS ATTACHMENT, Patented NovEMBER 13TH, 1888. ‘O J.S. Coolidges Harness aitachment is the best thing of the kind ever put on the market. It is so arranged that any one can secure it to any harness, in three minutes, without cutting the same in any way, right out in the street. It can be taken off the harness in two minutes, and the harness returned to its former style without the least trouble or exertion. It saves time in biteh- ing and unhitching as a horse can be attached to the vehicle in less than 30 seconds and extricated in less than 5 seconds. lt is an ornament to the harness and contains nothing in its parts to get out of order, the case being so constructed that the straps ean be lengthened or shortened as is required. The Bolt is re- movable secured so as to allow the spring to be removed when worn. The particular advantage this device possesses over oth- ers consists in the construction of the case and arrangements of the straps, whereby the same may be attached to any harness without cutting the same, as bas been heretofore necessary in order to use devices of this character. : To the loop of the Bolt may be attached lines 28, said lines be- ing connected with the driver by suitable means, so that if the horse runs or becomes unmanageable, the tightening of the lines will draw the bolt 12, and the spring 24 will cast the piate 16 a- side and release the animal trom the vehicle. Any woman or child can hitch or unhitch a horse without the slightest trouble. Thousands of the attachments are being used every day. Baltimore House, BROOK ST., LONG BRANCH.

Dinsmore can te easily reached from Jacksonville by railroad, by water route, or by aa hour and a half drive over an etcel- lent plank and shell read. Dinsmore is not one of the isom ted spots that is only laid out os paper, but a thriving prosperous town that recommends itself to capitalist and laborer, to fathers and wives who are vigilant over their own interests and the welfare of their children, to those who are seeking homes and those who have capital to invest for speculation. The®land can be obtained at re- markably low figures and on terms suitable to the condition of every purchaser. At the present low figures a poor man can make regu- lar payments ona valuable home with less than the aggregate of unnecessary expense or money act- ually thrown away.
