Jone’ of Cleveland, have issued a jnealar to the colored people urg- % 4 State convention to assemble me oringield, Ohio, Aug. 26th, ae; our distinguished colored friends of Obio expect to gain from the dewocratic party, I would like to know. a*s The appointment of E. M. Hew- jett as one of the Justices of the Peace for the District of Columbia, isa deserving compliment to that young wan. There is no young pao held in higher estimation by the people of this city, than Mr. Hewlett. Senator Bruce who brought the appointment about has the congratulations of the roung men of this community. Mr. Hewlett isa young man of ability god I am sure that he will give en- tire satisfaction. *,* The ovation that Col. Wm. Mure rell received on his arrival in Bos- ton, Mass., is an evidence of that gentleman's popularity in this coun- try among theG. A. R. He was the ouly colored delegate at large in the great encampment that met in the old Bay State. Among tie distin- guise visitors were Hon. Freder- ick Douglass, Col. James Lewis and others. a*s The colored Republicans of North Carolina, under the leadership of Joho H. Williamson, have decided wo hold a State convention for the purpose of denouncing the admin- istration. Lam ata lost to know if the colored people should desert the republican party where are they going? I am sure that the democratic party has offered no in- ducements to them, to the contra- -y wey have butchered them un- wercifully. It is an old saying aud a true ene, the more you abuse and illtreat some colored people, the more they will love you. * re The Commissioners of the Dis- trict of Columbia made several aps pointments this week of inspectors, I suppose they will appoint a few good republicans before the expira tion ot the present administration. * ** J. ©. Dukes the refugee from Alabama, is no doubt of the opin- iou that he bad a great paper two weeks ago when he devoted almost twocolumus to the editor of this paper. When you come to consid- tt, the people of Alabama were not to blame in driving this fool from the State. The Dakes strip of Ne- gtoes are detrimental to any com- wiuity and the sooner they are made to know their places the better it will be for the colored wople. the South is full of this Gass of Coons’ I am informed that Dukes is an erratic kind of an indi- ‘dual. his is the opinion that I tad of him before I was made aware bis record while in the South hich cannot stand the calcium ght. ** There was a mass meeting called tle other night at Grand Army ider the auspices of the Dis- Equal Rights League. The iz Was potas successful as "4s anticipated. Prof. Langston, Dr. Purvis and others delivered | addiessess, ** - tor Quay is of the opinion the Federal Eleetion Bill will o reduce the representation | |" Congress, The Senator should : reflected before he offered esolation. I am satisfied that Senator means well but he 1s : ‘Saken. IfCongress cannot en- Tee its own laws it had better be “olished. A government that “anuot enforce its own laws 1s a Mockery and a disgrace to civiliza- tu. What is the good of a law that cannot be enforced? What is “le good of a republic that cannot Motect its citizens? + The encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic at Boston, 4S8.. Was a success in every par- ticular. It was the largest demon- “tration of its kind that has taken lace for some time. The President ‘8s received with great pomp It is wrong to misjudge any man. Honest men are sometimes mis~ judged. Never despair over lost money. | Life is but a chance, so is specu- lation. Nothing is certain until it is made certain. The white faculty of the law de- partment of Howard University receives all the tuition money, while the colored man, the secreta- ry must live on glory. Mr. Doaglass will retarn to Hay- ti if he fails to get his man Bassett appointed to succeed him. Cleveland will be the democratic presidential nominee. Alger will be a candidate in 92, bat Harrison will beat him. Go to Hall between the acts 927 11th St., n. w. Frank Hall has the best in the market. Henry Lacy makes a good law- yer, although he never read law. It is not always the graduate that makes the finest lawyer. They fail to pass au examination sometimes. Bougnt wit, is the best wit. Natural wit is better. Bought knowledge is better than that acquired. Applicants for the Haytian mis- are numerous. Cheatham will be renominated. Tom Miller is a brick and hard to down. Money will win sometimes. Good wit is better than money. 1t was bad wit that lost the Knights of Labor the fight with the New York Central R. R. Money is power, so is good brains when wisely used. Our contemtorary ought to know that thieves and libertines cannot harm the “Lords anointed.” He has won many a battle. A man that is wrong cannot suc- ceed. The BEE is a success. A wrong act committed cannot result in any good. The acts of the Brk have been for the good of the people. Hence the Bre is a success. The BEE is under obligation to no man. A newspaper exists on its merits. Hiditor Cromwell made an im- pression on the people at Asbury park. LEADING COLORED VETER. ANS. COL MURRELL OF THE 54TH MASSA CHUSETTS AND ALGER’S STAFF. (Boston, Mass., Daily G!obe.) Col. William Murrell of Jer-ey City, delegate-at-large from the de- partment of New Jersey, arrived in this city Tuesday morning and re- ceived quite an ovation from com- rades of 25 years ago at the sta- tion.

Urall, now com- mander of the department of the Potomac, was taken to Connecti- cut and afterwards joined the 54th Massachusetts Volunteers, under his slave name, Kdward Burten. He was wounded in the battle of Wagner, and was honorably dis- “sa the enthusiasm that was mani- ‘sted when he appeared in the Procession was great. charged while in hospital August 6th, 1865. Since then he has served 12 5 cents per copy. years as representative from the parish of Madison in the State Leg- islature of Louisiana. Col.
