Rooker, author of the “Black Regiment.” We learn from the chairman of the committee of arrangements that one of the interesting features uf the “Bivou- ack” will be that the audience will be asked to join in singing of army and camp-fire songs. Of course everybody will go. We must vever forget the black boys in blue; they did grand things for us before this generation was born. Our literary associations and Sun- day School lyceums must not be made tke medium through which anyone shall give his perspnality too much airing and gain glory. Neither should there be too much music. Don’t keep people ia your meetings over two hours. ‘’Brevi- ty is the very soul of wit.” Mr. Geo. W. Jackson was greet- ed by a full house at the Bethel Literary Tuesday night to hear him read, *‘Has the Colored man prov- ed himself capable of self govern- ment.” The paper was an able presentation of the negative side of the question, and was ably discusa- ed proand con by Messrs Wil liams, of S. C., Cromwell, Holmes, Ricks, Curtis, Davis, of N. Y., Richardson, Ohio., and closed by the essayist. The meeting called together at Rev. Jobnson’s R St. Bapt. church, Monday last, in the interest of and for the benefit ofthe Home for friendless children might have been made a great suecess, but it was a full measured one, from the fact that when one goes into a com- munity to solicit funds for charity sake, itis not the time to scold and scorn people for what they as you may think have not done. In short beggars must not be too autocratic or imperious. The peo- ple have done the best they could ander all the surroundings—and will not rest easy under “scolds and .scowls,” re ne POINTERS. Commissioner Ross is not oppos- ed tothe appointment of colored men on the police force. He has proven to be the colored man’s friend. Health Officer Townsend has re- commended additional inspectors. Dr. Townsend knows what is need- ed to keep a large city in a healthy condition. The McKinley tariff bill vill may have caused the defeat of the re pablicans but if the federal election bill had passed there would have been no doubt. President Harrison’s record is beyond ail doubt the most brilliant of any mau who has ever occupied the Executive mansion. Harrison will be revominated. Tom Reed would make a good ran with Harrison.

The boisterous plays. of “More Bags on the Mill,” “Leap Frog,” “Catcher,” around and around the room until some one got hurt and a kiss was offered to up the burt, the kiss more resented than the hurt. High old time! Father and mother got up and went into the next room because they could not stand the racket. Then, instead of compunctions of conscience, a worse racket. The mothers and wives came in the af- ternoon, all wrapped up from the cold, and their feet on a foot-stove. When they got warm and took out their needles and sat down it was aimerry group and fall of news. Once ina while a needle would slip and make a bad scratch upon the character of some absentee, but for the most part it was good, wholesome talk. And in the even- ing when the young people came and the old people were in one room and the young people in another, in the latier there was some lively stepping, while the black boy play- ed “Moneymusk”; even grandfather In tie next room, who had distribu- ted many tracts on the sin of danc- ing, was seen to make his heel ge. It seemed to me a great fuss and @ great gathering to get one quilt made, But the fact was, that good neigh’rhood was quilted, warm sym- pathies were quilted, life-time friend ships were quilted, and connubial bliss was quilted. And they stayed late. And such plays as you had in that back room when you joined hands, and one of the loveliest stood in the ring! What a circam- ference to what a centre! Bat vow the sceneis fading out. The fire place is down, and the house is down with it. One of those boys went to sea and was never heard of. Another became squire in a neigh- boring village. Another went to college and became a minister. Another died the following sum- mer, until now thep are all gone! —T. De Witt Talmage, D.
