The position that Mr John- son now holds is that of copparer, baving held position in the ¢ffice as aanviet nnder Mr. Douglass and 28 hav aU amy pews American public is too well known. They can easily judge of my pres- ent acts by my past. For me to discriminate in my office would be the height of folly avd would just» ly call down on me the censure of my raze. Lhad given thought to the matter until Mr. J. A. Smith an anti slavery leader of Boston, and a friend of the race, wrote me concerning these reports. My re- ply [have seen quoted in various newspapers and states my position exactly. Mrs. Gray of St. Paul, Miss Hill of Richmond, Va., Mrs. Henderson and Miss Sommerville of D. C., are my appointees. No: Ido not truc- kle to prejudice or feel abashed by connection with @ race that has made such progress in a few years. Yes:I spoke at Tuskegee, Ala., and tried to impress on the grada- ates and student of the Tuskegee College the importance of forming good characters. It is that which will make us what we desire to be. Do lintend to retain all Demor erats in office? No I shall not do so. I shall make removals as all others who have preceeded me have done, I reduced Mr, Jobn- son’s wages but with his consent. As [have stated his relations to my predecessor Isee no reason to reassert them. I only asked to be judged in a fair and impartial way. I am willing to stand as I have always stood as a vindicator of the race and oue who strives and de- sires that it shall occupy a place in history.” Mr. Br ce made these replys to my questions iu a courieous way that impressed me with his candor. Senator Bruce’s residenceis on R street N. W., is located in a very excellent ueighborhood and his large and commodious dwelling is bailt of brown stone and the in- terior is fitted op with admirable taste. His neighbors are mostly families of distinguished army officers. Among the number is the widow of Gen’l Hancock, Gen’! Wilcox, and Col. Kayraff. Two good printers are wanted at this office and one apprentice. Young ladies will be given an op portunity to learn the printing business if they desire.
