Now, tlemen, said Secretary v you can file yonr charges, 1all not promise you when I can getto them. The delegation handed him a bundle of papers, some were charges against Dr Purvis and the others were endorse- s of Dr, Augusta. w seems that their charges Dr. Purvis were made in aterest of one of the applicants for the position, and Gen’l. Noble, from his talk to the delegation, took no stock in the charges. The delegation was also told that it must be shown that Dr. Parvis was not conducting his office properly ; that he was incompetent; that he left his office and supported the Democratic party, The men who composed the delegation were more tileut during the last Democratic dwinistration than Dr. Purvis ‘ws, and, as the Republicans have mm, they are blatant now a outspoken for Republican suc~ ss.

[Georgia Sentinel. ] December 5, 1889.—There ap peared in the Atlanta ‘Constitu- tion ” an account of the raping by white men of a colored lady school teacher near Social Circle, in New- ton county. The account was as follows : Miss Victoria Day was out visit- ing some ot her patrons and on rex turning home was met in the road by a white man in a buggy. This man drew a revolver and forced the young girl to get in the buggy and ride with him. He then drove out into the woods, forced the girl to get out and forced her to submit to his fiendish purpose. Compelling } her again to get ia the buggy, he drove on a picuo and niet auuthot white map, and they two, again as- saulted the girl. Half dead, they picked her up and drove to au old colored man’s house and dumped her. Within a week or so the girl was sufficiently recovered to swear out a warrant before a magistrate, who arrested one of the parties, but j permitted the culprit to go off to seek bis own bondsmen unattened. The other white man was not even cited to appear. Thus we suppose the matter rested until the editor of the $ Sentinel” in a strong let- ter called the attention of Governor Gordon to the outrage, and asked an investigation. The following is the Governor’s letter : State of Georgia, Executive Dep., Artanta, GA., Dec. 23, 1889. R. R. WRIGHT, Esq, Augusta Ga.; Dear Str—Governor Gordon di- rects me to say a copy of the en- closed order has been forwarded to Newton county, and that upon the receipt of an application, in con- formity with its terms, a reward will be offered. The names of the perpetrators of the outrage are known, and they are believed to be hiding out in the county. It does not yet appear why they have not already been arrested by the officers of the law. Very respectfully, J. W. WARREN, Secretary Executive Department. We have not heard any more from the matter. Judging from the Fast, Point affair we cannot hope for the punishment of these men. It seems to us to be a fact that the Negro has no rights in Georgia which a white man is bound to re- spect. The good white people are powerless. Governor Gordon would punish she wrong-doers if he could, but he can’t. Even the popular Grady was censured because he protested mildly against the East Point whippers of Negroes. Many of the white people of Georgia seem to be in favor of outraging and killing Negroes. We thank Governor Gordon for his prompt efforts, but we know they will amount to nothing. Ia this connection we wish to say that those colored men who speak harshly of Henry Grady would cease to do so if they only knew what he had to endure even for the few kind words which he dared to say for the Negro. ‘Catholic Beneficial Hall, 18th street, between L and M, n. w., last Monday evening, was the scene of one of the most prominent gather- ings of the season’s festivities, The WASHINGTON, D. O., SATURDAY, JANUARY 11,1890, occasion was the “Soiree” of the “Congenials,” tendered to their lady patrons who were “Emme o’halitude bien charmant.” Mr. E. Murray smilingly presided over the menu, which was a signifi- cant demonstation of his genius as @ caterer. THEY SAY Men play the knave until they are fixed, after which they think they are stronger than the gods. Be honest with your fellowman. You may ask another some day. When we get onr fill we conclude that we want no more. When we think that we are fixed, that moment we stand upon uncer- tain ground. It is better not to have any fight with the BEE, because it is loaded to the mouth. Dogs bark when they are lookea favor at, bite when they are hungry, and | nese 1 killed when they are mad. A hint to the wise is sufficient. John Sherman for President in | 92 would make things certain. Men should be honest with their fellow-men. Great are the deeds of good men. A double playing man is a knave. Knowledge is power, but money is knowledge, The agony is over at last. Who is the man is the question. Promises made aud never kept generally ominato trom a dalger ous man. Some women don’t know their own mind. They imagine more at times than really exists. It is natural for some people to lie. When men get what they want they soon forget the ladder upon which they climbed. Don’t mention it, it is so the world over. Always be honest to your friends Never change an old friend fora new one, is a maxim of long stand- ing. Women are the most inquisitive beings on God’s earth. If you have a flower stuck in your: bosom they want to know where you got it. You must never tell a female that another woman is pretty, especial- ly it she is ugly. An ugly woman admires her own beauty. All women are pretty in their own eatimation. They think more of themselves than other people think of them. Married men shoald not flirt. Single girls generally force them to do so. Col. James Hill will be seated. A reward for the apprehension of Silcott will be earned by the man who captures him. The more the white people whips @ negro the more he loves him. He will learn more sense one of these days.
