on ,sunday1 ,dr4 ,dana's suggestion to take up a contribution to help the ,a4 ,m4 ,a4 out of debt was acted upon by many of the churches4 ,the result was a large increase to our receipts4 ,why not repeat the effort this year8 ,it is certainly in order that patriotic sermons should be preached ,july #c;d4 ,it is just as certain that a contribution taken in connection with such a service in behalf of the ,a4 ,m4 ,a4 would be neither burdensome nor inappropriate4 ,it would be an easy matter certainly for that #e1jjj deficiency that we carry from last year to be provided for4 ,we throw out the suggestion4 ,one other thought4 ,vacation days are now upon us4 ,we make the request that our friends will bear our work in mind as they visit the country churches4 ,a little effort to circulate the ,,american ,,missionary and to make the people acquainted with our work1 would go a great way to help us4 99 99 99 99 99 ,in the ,june ,,missionary we mentioned a watch sent us by a widow4 ,it was a cherished memento4 ,not being able to make an offering of money1 she gave us that which represented to her more than money4 ,a reader of the ,,missionary1 noticing the gift1 has kindly sent us more than double its market value in redemption4 99 99 99 99 99 ,we are pained to record the death of ,mrs4 ,j4 ,h4 ,parr1 which occurred in ,chicago1 ,april #c;d4 ,mrs4 ,parr first went ,south under appointment of the ,a4 ,m4 ,a41 in ,november1 #ahhd1 to take charge of the musical department at ,tillotson ,institute1 ,austin1 ,texas4 ,at the close of that school year1 with her husband she went to ,quitman1 ,ga4 ,the trying experiences in connection with the persecution of our missionaries1 and especially the incendiary burning of our school-house at ,quitman1 gave her nerves such a shock that she never fully recovered from it4 ,the last six months of her life she seemed to be improving4 ,they were months marked by special ,christian activity1 aiding her husband in his work as a pastor4 ,but death came suddenly1 and it was clearly manifest that her nervous forces1 so fearfully overtaxed and shattered by the experience of that terrible night in ,quitman1 were very far from being restored4 ,we commend the bereaved husband to the benediction of the loving ,father who sympathizes with all his children in the day of their affliction4 99 99 99 99 99 ,the ,herald1 of ,greenville1 ,miss41 is responsible for the statement that a ,negro who was serving out a small fine on the chain-gang at ,vicksburg1 for refusing to work had #ajj added to his fine4 ,the same paper also states that ,george ,young 7white71 convicted of forgery and confined in ,kemper ,co4 jail1 was taken from prison and set at liberty by a party of masked men4 ,this may be taken as a sample of the difference between the way justice is meted out to white and black criminals in ,mississippi4 ,the color line is certainly drawn4 ,a good thing for ,justice that her eyes are blinded4 ,the hand in which she holds her sword would certainly move to smite the discriminators1 could she have a sight at the outrage4 99 99 99 99 99 ,a committee of the ,u4,s4 ,senate1 consisting of ,senators ,platt1 ,blackburn and ,cullom1 have been investigating ,indian matters4 ,a long telegram1 every point of which tells against the ,indians1 professing to be based on the investigations of this committee1 has been sent out all over the country4 ,depend upon it1 when so lengthy a telegram is sent over the wires of the ,associated ,press1 there is an agency behind it that has an axe to grind4 ,the dispatch was so one-sided that any careful reader could not help seeing that in so far as it stated facts1 they were but partially stated4 ,it said the committee had witnessed a dance among the ,osages1 and that 8it was especially sad to learn that two of the sprightliest of the dancers1 covered almost all over with little looking-glasses1 sleigh-bells1 rings1 feathers and ribbons1 were graduates of the ,carlisle ,indian ,school1 who have relapsed into shameless savagery40 ,if this language1 taken in connection with its setting1 means anything1 it means a slur at ,indian education4 ,but suppose the telegram had said that there had been connected with the ,carlisle ,school1 in all1 eighty-four ,osages2 that none of them stayed in the school over three years2 that more than a half of them remained less than a year1 and that there have been no ,osages at the school since ,august1 #ahhe2 had the telegram made that statement1 there would be nothing 8particularly sad0 in the discovery that two out of the eighty-four had yielded to the tremendous temptation to fall back into ways out of which they had never been lifted4 ,it is sad1 of course1 that these people are savages1 but the spirit that lurks behind this telegram is far sadder4 ,it is absurd to talk of these youth as lapsing4 ,indian education is not to be judged by the conduct of those who have been in school from less than one year up to three years at most2 nor1 even had they been in school for ten or fifteen years1 is it to be condemned should it be proved that two out of eighty-four1 yielding to temptation1 had fallen4 99 99 99 99 99 ,it will interest the readers of the ,,missionary to learn that the ,act of ,congress for the allotment of lands in severalty to ,indians provides that every head of an ,indian family shall be settled on #afj acres2 every unmarried person over eighteen years of age1 and every orphan1 shall have #hj acres2 and every single person under eighteen born before the ,president issues the order making allotments1 #dj acres4 ,the allotments so made are to be inalienable for #be years1 and the lands remaining over are to be bought of the ,indians by the ,government and opened to homestead settlement only2 such homesteads in tracts of #afj acres to be inalienable also for five years4 ,when the allotments have been made1 all the ,indians are declared to be citizens of the ,united ,states1 entitled to all the rights1 privileges and immunities of such citizens4 99 99 99 99 99 ,,the ,,john ,,brown ,,song4 ,the claim has been made that the melody of the ,john ,brown song was the product of the colored people4 ,our readers will see from the following article1 which we take great pleasure in publishing1 that ,mr4 ,frank ,e4 ,jerome1 of ,russell1 ,kansas1 is the author of this famous war song4 ,he has written the article1 at our request1 for the ,,missionary1 and in a private letter he says that at the time he composed the song he was only thirteen years of age4 ,,ed4 ,on the first day of ,february1 #ahfa1 ,i arrived in ,leavenworth1 ,kansas1 from ,st4 ,louis1 ,mo41 and took an engagement in a theatre there4 ,leavenworth at that time was under the greatest excitement4 ,all sorts of rumors of war were coming in1 and the soldiers seemed to be concentrating from all sides4 ,bonfires and stump speeches were the nightly occurrences1 and stirred up the patriotism of the people to fever heat4 ,as a boy1 ,i naturally fell into the excitement1 and every chance ,i had ,i would attend these public meetings4 ,at one of them ,i heard an impassioned orator thunder out3 8,for ,freedom and ,right will surely win the day60 ,this sentence remained with me4 ,i pondered over it1 and finally got to singing it in different ways in several songs4 ,some time after1 ,i heard a prominent citizen say that 8,john ,brown was dead1 but the rebels would find that his soul would roll on and crush them60 ,before either of these occurrences1 ,i heard a number of soldiers on a ,south-bound steamer singing1 as they swept by3 8,go tell ,aunt ,susey6 ,go tell ,aunt ,susey6 ,go tell ,aunt ,susey old ,john ,brown is dead60 7,etc47 ,this tune ,i had picked up and learned thoroughly4 ,one gift of nature to me has been the art of combining two tunes of different kinds and thereby producing a new one4 ,i had combined this tune of 8,go tell ,aunt ,susey0 with the old ,sunday-school hymn1 8,i love to go to ,sunday-school10 and the union of these two tunes produced the air of 8,john ,brown's ,body10 as sung everywhere since that time4 ,i sang this tune long before ,i put any words to it4 ,but when ,i heard 8,freedom and ,right will surely win the day10 and that ,john ,brown's soul 8would roll on and crush them10 ,i found with delight that ,i could fit them neatly into my tune4 ,the play in which ,i gave 8,john ,brown's ,body0 was designated as 8,jeff4 ,davis in the ,camp40 ,it represented a number of ,northern ,negroes going down to capture ,jeff4 ,davis1 and during the march southward they build a camp fire1 and while the bean soup is boiling the sentinel sings a song1 and the rest of the 8soldiers0 on the stage join in the chorus4 ,i was the sentinel1 and gave the song at this time4 ,a company of soldiers was present in the audience1 and ,i was quite startled at the reception my song received4 ,they hurrahed1 yelled1 laughed1 stamped1 and called me out time and again1 until the proprietor of the theatre interposed and quieted the excitement4 ,but that night1 every time ,i appeared on the stage another storm of applause would greet me4 ,after the show was over1 the soldiers cheered and went out singing 8,john ,brown's ,body0 in all sorts of ways1 and for several days after ,i heard it on the street in many different ways4 ,the tune has always remained as ,i first composed it1 but the soldiers changed the words to suit their own convenience and ideas4 ,the song as ,i sang it was as follows3 ,john ,brown's body lies slumbering in the grave2 ,john ,brown was noble1 loyal and brave2 ,his mission on earth was to rescue and to save1 ,and his soul goes rolling on6 ,,chorus3 ,glory1 glory1 ,hallelujah6 7,etc47 ,the ,rebels in the ,south can never make it pay ,while ,john ,brown's mission speeds on its way1 ,for ,freedom and ,right will surely win the day1 ,as his soul goes rolling on6 ,this was all the song--but two verses4 ,a short time after this a little newsboy stopped me and told me that he had made up a new verse for my song2 and upon asking him to sing it1 he sang3 8,we'll hang ,jeff4 ,davis on a sour apple-tree60 repeating the same line three times4 ,i laughed1 and told him ,i would think it over4 ,in the theatre when ,i gave the song was a ,frenchman named ,c4 ,francois1 well known to the early settlers of ,leavenworth1 who was the leader of a glee club1 composed of the actors1 who sang nicely many national airs and ballads4 ,mr4 ,francois1 about the time ,i sang the song1 went to ,new ,york1 and1 ,i learn1 returned by way of ,massachusetts1 and ,i am led to believe that it was through his means that the song reached the ,eastern ,states as quickly as it did2 and ,i also have good reason for believing that the ,seventh ,kansas and ,fiftieth ,illinois regiments carried the song ,south a little later4 ,these are the facts as they occurred2 and ,i may say1 in closing1 that ,i am pleased to note that the little acorn has developed into the mighty oak1 and ,john ,brown's name is one of the imperishable monuments that now adorn a free and united country2 and the colored people of the ,south and ,north can unite under the glorious banner of ,liberty in preserving the name and love for him who freely gave his life for their liberty and freedom4 ,i have heard severe criticism on the part of ,southerners regarding the illustrious dead1 but ,i often remember the olden story1 in the ,holy ,book1 of similar criticism made by the enemies of ,christ1 and ,i also read that 8,greater love hath no man than this1 that a man lay down his life for his friends40 ,so1 in our homes1 in our workshops1 in the fields1 in the churches and schools1 through the pages of history1 and within our own hearts1 we will never forget the boys in blue who saved the ,union1 and the glorious hero who laid down his life willingly and freely1 that the curse of slavery should be forever extinguished from the bright1 fair pages of our history4 ,and while we strew bright flowers over the graves of the departed heroes1 we shall always remember1 with swelling heart and deep affection1 the great work accomplished by old ,john ,brown of ,ossawatomie4 ,russell1 ,kansas4 ,,frank ,e4 ,,jerome4 99 99 99 99 99 ,,at ,,the ,,monument ,,of ,,lincoln4 ,the ,general ,association of ,illinois1 at its recent meeting in ,springfield1 as it had done once before1 went in a body to that shrine of patriotism1 the monument to ,abraham ,lincoln4 ,that patriotic song1 now turned to a ,christian psalm1 8,my country1 'tis of thee10 was sung by the people1 and a prayer of thanksgiving was offered by ,dr4 ,g4 ,s4 ,f4 ,savage1 who has now come to be one of the veteran ministers of the ,state4 ,words of welcome were offered by the ,attorney-,general of ,illinois1 ,mr4 ,geo4 ,h4 ,hunt1 and these were gracefully responded to by the ,moderator1 ,rev4 ,w4 ,f4 ,day4 ,addresses were also made by ,rev4 ,e4 ,k4 ,alden1 ,d4,d41 ,hon4 ,wm4 ,h4 ,collins1 and ,rev4 ,jos4 ,e4 ,roy4 ,at the former visit of this body1 the ,jubilee ,singers were present to voice the gratitude of the emancipated race4 ,the colored troops1 after their muster-out1 gave for the monument more than #ej1jjj1 one-fourth of the whole4 ,the scroll held in the left hand of the bronze statue of ,mr4 ,lincoln bears on it1 in large letters1 the word 8,emancipation10 and the pen in his right hand indicates the signing of that talismanic instrument1 while the coat-of-arms1 set into the pedestal1 represents the eagle as holding in his beak the broken chain of slaves4 ,of the #agh1jjj colored soldiers1 #hj1jjj had1 with their great ,liberator1 laid down their lives for the life of the nation4 ,and so it seemed well that one who was identified with the work of supplementing that edict of freedom should stand there to recount their deeds of valor and to relate with what enthusiasm they celebrate all over the ,south not only ,emancipation ,day and the ,fourth of ,july1 but ,decoration ,day itself4 ,who in that ,southland shall be found to offer psalms and prayers1 and scatter flowers over the graves of the #cba1cfi soldiers buried in the eighty-two national cemeteries there8 ,as ,god would have it1 the people are found there1 numbered by millions1 who delight to render this service of gratitude and of love--a people whose patriotism has never been tarnished with a breath of disloyalty4 ,what shall be done for a people who have been so true to the nation8 ,let them be confirmed in all the rights and emoluments of our ,christian citizenship4 99 99 99 99 99 ,,things ,,to ,,be ,,remembered--,,no4 #b4 ,the ,want3 ,nothing so nearly concerns the welfare of this land1 and of all lands1 as the thorough merging and assimilating of all the races here into one ,christian commonwealth4 ,this is needed for the unity and strength of our own nation1 and for an example and influence upon the nations abroad4 ,the despised races1 in particular1 need to be thus fused and absorbed1 in order that they may be inoculated and empowered with the spirit of the ,republic to carry its freedom1 its learning and light1 to the lands in darkness4 ,they are part and parcel of our people1 fused or not1 and the character of the nation will be affected by their presence and influence4 ,the measure with which we mete to them shall be measured to us again4 ,we are in a partnership which involves common gains and common losses4 ,what we put into them of intelligence1 piety and moral power1 we put into the nation not only1 but we put into the mightiest of the unbaptized races of men4 ,we have little conception1 indeed1 of the immense inertia of the heathen races2 or how much sympathy1 money and labor1 will be needed to move them into new lines of thought1 or of moral action4 ,but it is a work to which we are specially called1 and for which we have special facilities4 ,it may tax all our patience and charity1 and then we shall barely touch the necessities of the case4 ,the churches1 the school-houses1 the intelligence and the character that will be needed for the uplift of these races1 we have only begun to supply4 ,indeed it is a question as to whether we have yet formed any adequate idea of a work1 as for races1 in distinction from a work which deals merely with individuals4 ,but if we could bear in mind1 in dealing with the ,chinaman1 the ,indian and the ,negro1 that it is the races we are after1 the turning of single souls to ,god would not seem the small thing that it does4 ,we should then comprehend1 perhaps1 how much more favorable was a ,christian land for the conversion of men1 and for the raising up of broad1 intelligent1 and thoroughly equipped teachers and preachers for the benighted and perishing1 than were heathen lands4 ,the activities of our daily life1 the forces of our liberty1 learning1 piety1 government1 must do immensely more for a man in ,america than the feeble pulses of gospel life and light can do for him in ,china and ,africa4 ,how much easier1 then1 the conversion of heathen under the blaze of our ,christian sky1 and how much stronger and better men can we make of them to undertake the salvation of their own lands6 ,the great want is the means--both men and money--to throw upon the ,pacific slopes1 upon the ,indian reservations1 the ,southern savannas1 a ,christian force large enough to put these races under thorough ,christian culture4 ,anything less than this will fail of the end4 ,it is an opportunity to lay hold of the unsaved races1 such as is likely never to come again2 which it would not only be unwise to neglect1 but deeply criminal not to improve4 ,god sets before us this open door1 and not to enter in is to peril their future as well as our own4 ,a responsibility greater than this could hardly be given to men1 and an eye to see it and a soul to feel it are what1 beyond all things1 our people need4 ,c4 ,l4 ,,woodworth 99 99 99 99 99 ,,the ,,impressions ,,of ,,ten ,,years4 ,,by ,,president ,,patton ,,of ,,howard ,,university4 ,the present educational year completes the tenth of my connection with ,howard ,university1 and thus with the work of educating the ,negro race4 ,an 8,abolitionist0 since the spring of the year #ahcg1 ,i have ever felt a deep interest in the welfare of this oppressed people1 and the fact of their present freedom has only changed the direction of my anxiety and effort4 ,for ,i know that the brightness of their future depends upon industry1 education1 morality and religion4 ,and to this end they must have ,christian schools and churches1 and an industrial training in shop and store as well as in garden and farm4 ,my experience as president of an institution which in its seven departments--industrial1 normal1 preparatory1 collegiate1 legal1 medical and theological--covers well the entire range of instruction1 except the primary branches1 has given opportunity to observe the capacity and the actual progress of the ,negro1 and to study the wants of the race in this country4 ,the result is encouragement not uncoupled with anxiety4 ,a great work has been accomplished1 beyond question--great in immediate effect1 though more so in its prospective bearing4 ,it is rather a great seed sowing than a great harvest4 ,thousands have been taught the rudiments of knowledge1 and a select few have received a higher training4 ,some ambition has been roused in the masses1 and a little progress has been made in supplying them with more intelligent leaders in church and in state4 ,no doubt remains that the ,negro may be rendered capable of filling all the stations in life which are occupied by white men4 ,ordinary acquirements are made with creditable ease4 ,the higher education can also be acquired by the proper proportion of students1 but this effort is only partially successful as yet4 ,poor material is too commonly offered1 not only as to native talent1 but especially as regards thorough drill in primary studies and the commencement of genuine mental discipline4 ,with an imperfect drill in the lower schools1 we can do no perfect work in the higher branches1 and we find it difficult to develop and sustain in the mind the idea of a true scholarship1 and of the lofty aims of a liberal education4 ,it is but slowly that such an intellectual atmosphere can be made to pervade the colored colleges of the ,south as is found in the white colleges of the ,new ,england ,states4 ,but the work must be pushed till such a result shall be secured4 ,progress always entails added labor and expense4 ,what has been already accomplished by the ,a4 ,m4 ,a4 must not be lost1 and the vantage ground must be used to gain new results4 ,when students graduate1 their places are more than occupied by others1 who have been moved by their example to seek for knowledge4 ,as the spirit of caste is overcome1 and places of honor and profit begin to open to colored men1 fully qualified persons must be ready to embrace the new opportunities4 ,every educated and earnest ,christian minister sent forth from our institutions will not only supply his immediate church1 but will probably organize in the outlying neighborhood one or two others1 requiring similar pastors in a short time4 ,and he will also inspire the uneducated preachers of that region to aim at higher work1 and to seek school privileges4 ,it is a frequent remark1 that the theological department of ,howard ,university has1 by direct and indirect influence1 revolutionized the preaching in the colored churches of all denominations in ,washington1 which number about eighty1 it is said4 ,thus the ,a4 ,m4 ,a4 is a leaven hidden in the ,southern meal1 and destined1 with similar influences1 to leaven the entire mass4 ,and this ought to be appreciated by the intelligent ,congregationalists of the ,north1 who will rejoice in two obvious results of the operations of the ,a4 ,m4 ,a4 ,one is1 the gradual increase of their own churches and educational institutions1 which are becoming respectable in number and great in influence2 the other is1 the modifying effect upon other denominations1 which are thus inspired and toned up to our standard of education1 morals and religion4 ,this is secured not only by our example and competition1 but also by the enlightening and liberalizing influence exerted upon their own men1 who1 as teachers and preachers1 have been trained in our schools4 ,these are not false to their own sects2 they labor faithfully and successfully in their respective charges1 but they have gained enlargement of view and a wider charity1 and they will be found always on the side of progress in thought and in action1 and ready for ,christian co-operation4 ,the movement in progress in both political parties1 to obliterate the race-line at the polls1 is significant in many respects4 ,it points to a decrease of prejudice1 but it also renders imperative increased efforts to furnish the ,negroes with intelligent1 well-principled leaders1 of their own race1 to save them from being made tools of by wily politicians among the whites1 and by corrupt vote-mongers among themselves4 ,in a section so rapidly developing as is the ,south1 great changes may soon be expected4 ,it is our ,american ,japan4 ,let us not be backward in supplying the formative influences4 ,the work of the ,american ,missionary ,association was never more needed1 or more certain to be successful1 than at this very moment4 99 99 99 99 99 ,,the ,,south4 ,,notes ,,in ,,the ,,saddle4 ,,by ,,field-,,superintendent ,c4 ,j4 ,,ryder ,a colored preacher of the old style stumblingly read for his text1 the following3--8,wine is a moccasin and strong drink is a rattlesnake40 ,the sermon which followed was in keeping with the text which he read4 ,this is sound temperance sentiment even if it is a little faulty as a rendering of ,scripture4 ,the question is often asked3--,what is the ,a4 ,m4 ,a4 doing toward the grand temperance upheaval of the ,south8 ,this question has been put to me recently3--8,is the ,a4 ,m4 ,a4 keeping step to the march of present reform1 as it did in the great anti-slavery agitation80 ,an unhesitating yes can be given to this question4 ,in the 8,notes in the ,saddle10 for ,june1 a few hints were given concerning the part the representatives of the ,a4 ,m4 ,a4 were taking in the temperance movement in ,texas4 ,this was only a hint4 ,it was intended as such4 ,much more could have been said1 and truthfully said2 for instance3--one pastor of an ,a4 ,m4 ,a4 church is devoting a large part of the summer to stumping the ,state in favor of the proposed ,temperance ,amendment to the ,state ,constitution4 ,he goes out under the commission of a committee of temperance workers appointed for the special purpose of stirring up correct sentiments among the people4 ,the colored people are a large factor in the settlement of this question in ,texas4 ,this pastor will do his utmost to lead them to vote right4 ,other pastors and teachers are giving portions of their time this summer to the same good work4 ,in the ,south at large every ,a4 ,m4 ,a4 school is the center of pronounced temperance agitation4 8,bands of ,hope0 among the younger pupils and temperance societies of various names among the older pupils are the universal rule4 ,the 8,three ,pledge0 cards1 including abstinence from tobacco1 intoxicants1 and profane language1 are signed by almost every pupil in the ,a4 ,m4 ,a4 schools4 ,these pupils1 when they go out as teachers in the public schools1 take these pledges with them1 and secure signatures from their pupils1 and in this way carry the work far beyond the limits of the enrollment of our own schools1 in this aggressive temperance agitation4 ,not a single pastor of an ,a4 ,m4 ,a4 church uses intoxicants or tobacco so far as my knowledge goes4 ,the example of these pastors1 as well as their preaching1 is right and safe4 ,in one community1 the rigid rules adopted by the ,congregational ,church concerning these indulgences1 brought the other colored churches into line first1 and1 finally1 the white church of the same community found it necessary to take this radical position in order to maintain its hold upon the people4 ,their wise method of reaching the people and securing a correct public sentiment concerning this question1 is made use of both by pastors and by schools4 ,instruction in ,coleman's and ,richardson's ,manuals is provided for in the course of study4 ,honest1 earnest1 and persistent ,christian effort is put forth by the representatives of the ,a4 ,m4 ,a4 all along the line4 99 99 99 99 99 ,while walking down the streets of ,florence1 ,ala41 a few weeks ago1 a little white boy came trotting along at my side4 ,we easily fell into conversation4 8,how old are you80 ,i said4 8,nine years old10 he replied4 8,what ,reader do you read in80 8,i never read in no ,reader40 8,do you go to school80 8,no1 sir40 8,can't you read80 8,i can pick out some words right smart40 ,this is the exact testimony of a ,southern white boy of the middle class of society to-day6 ,a few rods farther down the street of the same village1 a little colored boy overtook me4 ,i invited conversation with him1 with the following result3 8,how old are you80 8,nine years old1 ,boss40 8,go to school80 8,oh1 yes1 sir2 been going to school for a long time40 8,what ,reader are you in80 8,the ,second1 sir40 8,can you read right along in the ,bible without any trouble80 8,yes1 sir2 ,i don't have any trouble in reading 'most anything40 ,this incident is true to the letter4 ,it is not very exceptional4 ,the colored children are improving faster than the white children in the ,south4 ,if this state of things continues very long1 the ,southern people will be obliged to hire colored young men and women to teach their white schools4 ,think of it6 8,in ,new ,york ,state #ee white men in a thousand1 and in ,massachusetts #fb in each thousand1 make their mark when they sign a document10 says the ,new ,york ,post1 8while in ,kansas only #ca in a thousand1 and in ,nebraska only #cj in a thousand are so illiterate4 ,but in ,kentucky #agc white men in a thousand cannot write their own names60 ,the ,a4 ,m4 ,a4 schools in the ,south are seeking to correct this appalling state of things4 ,they not only educate1 but they inspire also a desire for education in those reached by their influences4 ,it is unfortunate that these influences are mostly confined to the colored people1 but that is not because the whites are excluded from our school privileges4 8,none are so blind as those who will not see40 ,none are so hopelessly ignorant as those who do not desire to learn4 99 99 99 99 99 ,,atlanta ,,university4 ,the eighteenth anniversary of this institution has just passed4 ,no year in the history of the school1 perhaps1 has witnessed a broader and better work than that of the year now closed4 ,the exercises incident to ,commencement week were inaugurated with the baccalaureate sermon1 preached by ,sec4 ,woodworth1 of ,boston1 ,sabbath morning1 ,may #bb;d1 in the chapel of the ,university1 packed to the full with the students and their friends4 ,monday1 ,tuesday and ,wednesday were occupied with the usual examinations of the ,normal and ,college departments1 in the presence of the ,state ,board of ,examiners appointed by the ,governor for that purpose4 ,every opportunity was given and taken to test the students in their thorough knowledge and mastery of the subjects reviewed2 and it is but simple justice to them and to their teachers to say that they bore the test superbly4 ,in addition to the ordinary school work1 there were exhibitions in handicraft of various kinds4 ,first came an exhibit in the principles and practice of wood-working1 including carpentry and turning1 which would have gratified the advocates of manual labor connected with our public schools4 ,next came an object lesson1 by the ,senior and ,normal classes1 in nursing4 ,they brought in1 upon a stretcher1 one of their own number1 and illustrated how different kinds of bandages should be made and applied2 how plasters and poultices should be mixed and spread1 and also how deftly and easily the clothing of the sick bed could be changed and renewed without removing or disturbing the patient4 ,then came an exhibit in artistic and scientific cooking1 by the ,senior ,normal class4 ,if the quality of the cooking were to be judged by the rapidity with which the different articles disappeared after reaching the hands of the committee1 it must be pronounced a great success4 ,and last1 but not least1 came a look at the farm1 and an inspection of the barn1 the crops1 and the stock4 ,the conclusion was that the whole establishment was a credit to the ,state1 and worthy of the study of all the farmers thereof4 ,at the close of the examination on ,wednesday1 ,p4 ,m41 the school assembled in the chapel to listen to the report of the examiners on what they had seen and heard4 ,they had nothing but praise to bestow on the literary work of the ,university2 the evidences of hard and accurate study2 of clear1 inspiring teaching1 and of the scholarly bearing and quiet1 orderly spirit in all departments of the school4 ,they were specially gratified with the manual training given in so many directions1 and its promise of future value to the ,state4 ,one of them1 who seemed to voice the feelings of the others1 said3 8,i believe that1 take it all in all1 ,atlanta ,university is the best-equipped school in the ,state of ,georgia40 ,wednesday evening1 ,rev4 ,a4 ,d4 ,mayo1 of ,boston1 delivered a very able and quickening address1 taking for his theme3 8,american brains in ,american hands40 ,thursday was the great day of the feast1 when five young men and six young women delivered their orations or read their essays from the ,commencement stage4 ,the services were held in the ,second ,baptist ,church1 before an audience of twenty-five hundred people4 ,one of the examiners remarked at the close that he never before witnessed1 on such an occasion1 such perfect order and decorum4 ,and of the orations and essays it is praise enough to say that not one of them contained a weak or foolish thing4 ,it will interest the friends of ,atlanta to learn that the presidency1 made vacant by the death of the lamented ,ware1 two years since1 was filled by the election of the ,rev4 ,erastus ,blakeslee1 of ,new ,haven1 ,conn4 ,mr4 ,blakeslee was a classmate at ,yale ,college of ,mr4 ,ware and of ,prof4 ,bumstead1 who has been acting president during the past year2 and it is believed he will enter heartily into the spirit of the institution1 and will bring to it new enterprise and enthusiasm and power4 ,c4 ,l4 ,w4 99 99 99 99 99 ,,closing ,,exercises ,,at ,,straight4 ,a ,young ,men's ,christian ,association has been organized during the year1 and the first of our closing exercises was a public meeting of this association1 conducted by its officers at ,central ,church4 ,addresses were made by ,prof4 ,olds and ,rev4 ,dr4 ,berger1 and a fair audience was present4 ,this was on the morning of ,sunday1 ,may #be1 and on the evening of the same day the ,baccalaureate sermon was preached by ,dr4 ,berger4 ,it was a grand sermon1 and was listened to with profound attention by a large audience4 ,on ,monday evening the societies1 the old 8,sumner ,literary ,association10 which is almost as old as the school itself2 the 8,philomathian10 of later birth1 but great usefulness2 the 8,band of ,mercy0 and 8,band of ,hope10 united in a public anniversary meeting4 ,a programme1 consisting of recitations1 orations1 reading of essays1 and debate1 was presented1 and a large audience testified to its entire success4 ,the annual concert and exhibition came on ,wednesday evening4 ,the young people were greeted by a full house1 and money enough was realized to nearly pay off the indebtedness on the printing outfit4 ,the music was conceded to be excellent1 and all the exercises were applauded4 ,friday was ,commencement4 ,the exercises are held in the evening1 as most of those interested in the school being working people1 many who would desire to attend could not do so in the daytime4 ,in ,new ,orleans1 especially in summer time1 audiences are not noted for assembling early1 but people have come to know that when ,straight ,university says #g o'clock1 that is the hour when exercises will commence2 and as soon as the doors were open1 the crowd was ready to go in4 ,no such an audience ever before occupied that church4 ,at the opening of the doors nearly enough were there to fill the main audience room1 and soon galleries1 aisles and doorways were packed4 ,it is estimated that a thousand people were present1 and a great number were unable to get in4 ,formerly1 on all gatherings of this kind1 it was found necessary to have a force of policemen present2 but when getting my permit from the ,mayor1 ,i was asked what policemen would be required1 ,i ventured to say 8none10 and ,i am rejoiced to be able to say that during the entire series of meetings no disturbance of any kind occurred4 ,it must be remembered1 in order to give force to this1 that ,central ,church is situated in the very heart of the most densely populated portion of the city4 ,it was a long programme1 but so quiet and attentive was that dense audience1 that every word could be heard in any part of the room4 ,the exercises from the platform were such as we were proud of1 and the audience was not less a subject of pride4 ,ten students were graduated1 the largest number ever completing the course in any year1 and all their exercises were marked by a simplicity and force quite in contrast to the floridity and fluffiness often attributed1 and sometimes with justice1 to the colored people4 ,some fine music by the choral and glee clubs1 and by individuals1 gave variety to the exercises4 ,the diplomas were presented by ,hon4 ,thomas ,j4 ,woodward1 vice-president of the board of trustees4 ,a few remarks were made by ,president ,hitchcock and ,secretary ,chas4 ,shute1 followed by a neat and forcible impromptu address by ,rev4 ,a4 ,e4 ,p4 ,albert1 ,d4,d41 an alumnus of ,straight2 closing by singing 8,the ,heavens are ,telling10 by the choral club1 and benediction by ,dr4 ,berger4 ,of the graduating class1 all but one will for the present engage in teaching2 several hope to return and take post-graduate courses4 ,all are working ,christians4 ,r4,c4,h4 99 99 99 99 99 ,,two ,,examples ,,of ,,perseverance4 ,the current talk concerning the ,negro makes the entire race to consist of improvident ne'er-do-wells1 with no care for the future and with no power of denying present gratification for future good4 ,whatever of truth or falsehood this assertion may contain1 and probably it has much of both1 very many instances of perseverance come under our observation among our students in the schools of the ,a4 ,m4 ,a4 ,a4 ,h4 is an orphan girl of about eighteen years1 whose desire for education brought her into our school a few months last year4 ,by hard work and careful saving through the summer1 she earned enough money to keep herself in school a year4 ,at the close1 however1 of the first month she brought her books to my desk1 saying she must leave school at once2 and the poor girl broke down1 and began to cry4 ,little by little ,i learned the story3 ,her aunt had been sick1 and ,a4 had given to her the earnings hoarded for the year's tuition4 ,it was now impossible to get the money back1 or even enough to meet one month's demands1 and ,a4 had resolved to go out into the country1 where she could earn a little by picking up potatoes4 ,by hard work she hoped to save enough to return again at ,christmas time4 ,the next day it was my pleasure to send her word that for the present she might remain in the school with free tuition4 ,on ,monday she was again in her place1 grateful and studious1 and kindly offering to give up her desk when the room became full1 and herself take a stool or a chair4 ,in one of our advanced classes there is a young man of nearly thirty years1 whose story is equally interesting4 ,in the spring he thought he should not be able to return to school this fall1 for lack of money4 ,he went out1 however1 resolved never to spend an idle day2 he would work1 even if wages were low4 ,whenever he failed to secure better work1 he went to the woods1 splitting rails4 ,days and days he worked there1 through the heat1 and found that1 by arduous labor1 he could clear exactly thirty-five cents a day6 8,i should have kept on10 said he1 8had it been but twenty-five60 ,the result of his summer's work was that he found himself1 at school time1 with more money saved than at any previous fall2 and now he is again at his place1 studious and faithful1 volunteering even to work extra hours each day and ,saturday1 in the ,industrial department1 for the sake of the practice with tools4 ,instances might be multiplied1 but these two are sufficient to show the industry and the sacrifice of many of the scholars1 and the need in our schools for a fund to help such to secure the education they desire4 ,a ,,teacher4 99 99 99 99 99 ,,the ,,indians4 ,mr4 ,george ,w4 ,reed1 of the last class of the ,hartford ,theological ,seminary1 has been appointed by the ,american ,missionary ,association a missionary to the ,dakota ,indians4 ,he was ordained a minister of the gospel of ,christ1 on ,tuesday1 ,may #agth1 by a council called by the ,olivet ,congregational ,church of ,springfield1 ,mass41 at ,springfield4 ,mr4 ,reed is a member of the ,olivet ,church4 ,the sermon was preached by ,prof4 ,llewellyn ,pratt1 of the ,hartford ,seminary4 ,ordaining prayer by ,rev4 ,wm4 ,thompson1 ,d4,d41 also of the ,hartford ,seminary4 ,right hand of fellowship by ,rev4 ,michael ,burnham1 of ,springfield4 ,charge to the candidate by ,secretary ,powell4 ,by request1 we publish a portion of the charge to the candidate3 ,i charge you to remember that the interest which this ,council expresses in ,indian missions is in the line of our historic development4 ,away back in the year #afdd1 the ,general ,court of ,massachusetts ordained 8that the ,county ,courts in this jurisdiction shall take care that the ,indians in the several shires be civilized1 and the courts shall have power to take order from time to time to have the ,indians instructed in the knowledge of ,god40 ,in #afdf ,john ,elliot1 a ,congregational minister1 was at work as a missionary among the ,indians4 ,he translated his famous ,indian ,bible1 the first and for many years the only ,bible printed in ,america1 gathered the ,indians into communities by themselves1 and in #afdg had #ad ,indian villages1 with #a1djj praying ,indians1 organized into #bd regular congregations1 in charge of #bd native pastors1 and the discipline of the churches and the qualifications of the ministers were fully up to the ,puritan standard then required4 ,in #agdc ,rev4 ,eleazar ,wheelock1 of ,lebanon1 ,conn41 another ,congregational minister1 took up the work where ,elliot had laid it down1 and out of his missionary labors grew ,dartmouth ,college1 an institution that stands to-day a proud monument of ,new ,england ,congregationalism's early interest in the education and evangelization of the ,indian4 ,in #ahaj the ,american ,board came into existence1 and in #ahae we find it adopting measures for carrying the gospel to the ,indians4 ,so rapid did its work grow in that direction1 that in #ahcj three-fourths of all the church members in its missions were ,indians4 ,in #ahdf the ,american ,missionary ,association was formed1 and of the #cj missionaries who held its commission the first year1 #aa were missionaries to the ,indians4 ,in #ahhc the ,american ,board1 deciding to prosecute its work exclusively in foreign lands1 turned over its ,indian missions to the ,american ,missionary ,association4 ,so that you see what this ,council has done to-night is in the line of our historical development1 and connects your life and work in an unbroken line with the early history of ,congregationalism in its efforts to reach the ,indians4 ,i charge you to remember that in your special mission1 justice1 as a ,christian principle to be observed in all our dealings with our fellow men1 must find in you a champion4 ,this because of the fearful wrongs that1 in the name of religion1 have been committed against the people to whom you go4 ,in the person of the poor ,indian1 entitled to all his rights as a man1 ,christ has been standing in the presence of the white man's civilization on this continent for upwards of three hundred years1 asking for justice1 and it has not yet been accorded him4 ,a most shameful record is the history of the white man's dealings with the ,indians1 whether read in the conduct of individuals or in the conduct of the ,government4 ,the white man1 by reason of his intelligence1 his resources and his numerical superiority1 had the ability to cheat1 rob1 and overpower the ,indian1 and putting his sense of justice out of sight1 he has proceeded to cheat and rob and overpower him4 ,between the years #aggh and #ahga1 the people of the ,united ,states have made with the ,indians #fdi treaties1 and the majority of them they have violated4 ,by these treaties nearly all of the territory of the ,united ,states has been acquired--a territory that by reason of its vastness is at present the home of #ej1jjj1jjj white men1 prospectively to become the home of at least #aej1jjj1jjj more--a territory that by reason of its marvellous resources of climate1 soil and minerals1 has produced a wealth already rivaling that of the oldest nations1 and promising in the not far distant future to surpass them all4 ,this territory has nearly all of it been deeded by the ,indians to the people of the ,united ,states1 on condition that the ,government should compensate them by money annuities in cash payment1 or their equivalent in food1 clothing1 agricultural implements1 and instruction in farming and trades2 by establishing and maintaining schools for the education of their children1 and rigidly excluding white intruders from their reservations4 ,well1 we have got the territory1 but what about the conditions8 ,the money agreed upon has not been paid2 the rations stipulated for have not been issued2 the schools promised have not been maintained1 and white intruders upon the reservations have not been excluded4 ,from pillar to post these children of the forest have been driven4 ,as fast as the white man has wanted the ,indian's land1 a reason has been speedily found for violating the treaty and consummating the robbery4 ,the savage has been goaded to go on the war path by white men's villainy1 and then the ,government has been obliged to go out and whip him into submission2 and1 as a punishment for crime he never would have perpetrated had he not been driven to it1 move him elsewhere1 and divide up his land among his despoilers4 ,my brother1 remember as you stand to preach the gospel among the ,indians it will be your precious privilege to show that the wrongs and injustice they have suffered at the hands of the white man have been inflicted in opposition to the teachings of ,christianity and in defiance of its commands4 ,i charge you to remember that your mission gives repeated emphasis to the faith of the ,christian church in the redeemability of the ,indian4 ,lack of faith in this truth has been the cause of much of the cruel indifference on the part of many good people--even ,christian people--to the wrongs that ,indians have suffered1 and has occasioned lack of enthusiasm in the prosecution of ,indian missions4 ,it has paralyzed endeavor1 and prepared the way for the indulgence of enmity4 ,but notice this3 ,no body of ,christians have ever put themselves on record as not believing in the ,indian's redeemability4 ,stories of massacre and one-sided testimony1 when the ,indian could not have a hearing1 have led many ,christians by their opposition to ,indian missions1 unwittingly to array themselves against the gospel4 ,they did not think1 in taking up the cry1 8,there is no good ,indian but a dead ,indian10 8,the ,indian cannot be civilized10 8,the ,indian should be exterminated10 and other such falsehoods1 that they were denying the ,christian faith and practically proclaiming that there was no salvation for themselves nor for anyone else2 yet that was precisely what they were doing1 for if the ,indian cannot be redeemed1 then no one can be redeemed4 ,if the gospel cannot save the lowest1 then there is no salvation for the highest4 ,the ,indian is a man1 and ,christ tasted death for every man1 and he is able to save to the uttermost every man4 ,that lowest savage1 wretched and vile as he is1 can be redeemed1 and in this redemption can be raised to highest manhood4 ,all culture and excellence of mind and heart are attainable to him whose soul has felt the redeeming power of ,christ's salvation4 ,why1 then1 after #cjj years of the presence of ,christianity on this continent1 have not the ,indians been civilized8 does any one ask4 ,rather1 when we think of the way that the ,indians have been treated1 our surprise shall be that any of them have accepted the gospel4 ,and yet despite all of the difficulties1 ,dr4 ,jas4 ,e4 ,rhoades affirmed that there is no field of mission enterprise which has yielded larger returns than that of our native tribes4 ,indians have been reached by the gospel1 and that1 too1 in a very remarkable degree4 ,the 8five civilized tribes10 as they are called1 of the ,indian ,territory1 are practically a ,christian people2 #ha1fba ,indians wear citizens' dress wholly1 and #ei1fie wear citizens' dress in part2 #dc1dbc ,indians labor in civilized pursuits1 and of this number #i1fab are farmers2 #ba1bcb houses are occupied by #dj1jjj ,indians as dwellings2 and the significant thing about all this is that this most promising state of things has chiefly come about since the inauguration of the ,government's ,peace ,policy during the ,presidency of ,general ,grant1 when ,christian missions and ,christian schools were multiplied1 and the ,government1 in co-operation1 made an honest effort to keep faith with the ,indian1 and to give him1 at least1 a show of justice4 ,when the ,indian was given the chance1 he was found ready to accept it4 ,the facts are most encouraging4 ,wonderful has been the progress the gospel has made among these people during the last fifteen years4 ,but the field is vast1 and1 in comparison with the needs1 only a beginning has been made4 ,there are #dj1jjj wild ,indian children in the country4 ,of this number1 all told1 there are but #ab1jjj gathered in the ,government and mission schools1 leaving #bh1jjj children to whom no school opens its door1 and to whom no ,christian missionary comes4 ,there are at least sixty whole tribes upon whose darkness no ray of gospel light has ever fallen1 as pagan and as savage as were their ancestors when the first white man landed upon these shores6 ,you have given yourself to this work1 my brother1 at an auspicious time--at a time luminously prophetic of grand results4 ,god's bell strikes the hour4 ,providential lines converge4 ,the machinations of wicked men are growing less4 ,our government is shaping itself to do right4 ,our legislators are becoming more humane in their attitude4 ,the voice of the people is rising louder and louder1 and becoming more united in its demand for justice4 ,the ,christian church is awaking to a sense of its responsibility4 ,the seed planted by ,elliot1 and ,mayhew1 and ,wheelock1 is fruiting in the reviving interest in ,indian missions that to-day is seen spreading among the churches4 ,the ,indian turns his face towards the sunlight4 ,he stretches out his hands for help4 ,confidingly he places his destiny in our keeping4 ,to help him into the light and the manhood of the gospel is a work that an angel might covet4 ,to that work you have given yourself1 to that work this ,council has consecrated you1 and into that work we will all follow you with our ,god-speed and benediction4 99 99 99 99 99 ,,the ,,chinese4 ,,evangelistic ,,work4 ,all that ,i can report on this point is that we are feeling our way towards something effective--praying continually1 and watching diligently for an answer to our prayer1 that ,god will raise up some ,chinese believer and endue him with such power that he may not only disciple those already gathered in our schools1 but may make his voice to be heard among the perishing crowds that now refuse to enter our opened doors1 and love darkness rather than light4 ,for three months past we have had ,loo ,quong in the field--a faithful and beloved missionary helper1 previously serving in our ,central school in ,san ,francisco4 ,he spent one month in ,oroville1 one in ,marysville1 and is about completing a third in ,stockton4 ,at each of these points he was joyfully welcomed1 and his abundant labors were rewarded by some measure of success4 ,but that for which we pray we have not yet secured1 though it waits for us1 ,i am sure1 in the gracious purpose of our ,lord4 ,in ,march1 ,i visited these three missions1 and the one in ,sacramento also1 to which our brother will go as soon as his labors in ,stockton are closed4 ,as usual1 my observations both lifted me up and cast me down4 ,most of what is discouraging might have been averted if we had fit ,chinese helpers in sufficient numbers1 and the means to sustain them4 ,the ,american teachers at these points are specially faithful1 skillful and devoted1 but nothing can make up for the loss entailed by the absence of effective ,chinese helpers4 ,oroville is a rendezvous for the ,chinese scattered over a very wide territory4 ,its resident ,chinese population is also large2 not less than six hundred4 ,loo ,quong had done a good work here1 and ,i found the school in better condition than ever before4 ,it was on a week-day evening that we gathered round the table of our ,lord4 ,the room was well filled with ,chinese1 and we had several ,americans with us also4 ,i think that more than twenty communed4 ,one was baptized and received to our little ,chinese church4 ,one other would have been baptized--a brother very well reported of--but he had been obliged to go away to his summer's work1 about eighty miles distant4 ,one brother walked about fifteen miles to be with us at this service1 and trudged back again early the next morning1 gladly sacrificing for it most of his night's rest4 ,very generous subscriptions 7considering their deep poverty7 were made in aid of our work4 ,three on that evening expressed their new purpose to live for ,christ1 by joining the ,association of ,christian ,chinese--an act which involves a confession of ,christ quite as explicit as1 among us1 attends reception to the church4 ,lack of space forbids that ,i speak particularly of the other points visited1 except to say that we had in ,stockton1 after the school session was ended--that is from #i to #aj3cj ,p4 ,m4--a meeting with the pupils at which the presence of the ,spirit was manifest to us all1 and seventeen rose to express their full purpose to leave all and follow ,christ4 ,i conclude with a single extract from a letter from ,hong ,sing1 our helper at ,santa ,cruz1 in which he speaks of several attempts of his heathen countrymen to catch him in his words4 ,i ask our friends to read it1 remembering that ,hong ,sing is a house-servant1 working in the kitchen all day and teaching and preaching at night3 8,i write a few words to tell you how we won the seven souls last month4 ,since they found the way of light1 and so they came with us1 with the same mind to worship the true ,god4 ,their cousins and acquaintances are full of hatred1 and try many ways to make fun of them1 to entice them to give up the worship of the ,lord ,god4 ,so was fulfilled the word our ,lord has said3 #8,when men shall revile you and speak evil of you for my sake4' ,sometimes one or two come to argue with me after the school has closed1 and pick out the hardest questions to ask me--as this one3 #8,who made that ,god in ,heaven8 for you said1 only one ,god2 where that one made from8' ,i answer them3 #8,suppose you count

forth proclamations warning the people against the persecution of missionaries and ,christians4 8,know all men10 says the ,governor of ,che-,kiang1 8that the sole object of establishing chapels is to exhort men to do right2 those who embrace ,christianity do not cease to be ,chinese1 and both sides should therefore continue to live in peace1 and not let mutual jealousies be the cause of strife between them40 ,likewise ,kung1 the ,governor of the province in which ,shanghai is situated1 after explaining that1 under the treaties1 missionaries have the right to hold land and houses1 on lease1 and to travel about and preach1 8their sole aim being the inculcation of the practice of virtue1 and having no design of interfering with the business of the people10 goes on to say3 8,such of the subjects of ,china as wish to become converts may lawfully do so1 and as long as they abstain from evil doings there is no law prescribing inquisition into1 or prohibition of1 their actions40 ,for the destruction of chapels and houses1 in disturbances increased 8by local vagabonds and bad characters10 summary vengeance will be taken4 8,bear in mind10 adds the ,governor1 8that when missionaries live in the midst of your villages you and they are mutually in the relationship of host and guest4 ,under ordinary circumstances it is your foremost duty to act toward them with courtesy and forbearance4 ,should any misunderstanding arise1 let each submit his side to the local authorities1 and on no account give rein to ill-considered resentment1 and fall1 owing to the impulse of a moment1 in the net of the law40 ,when we think of the sentiments that even some ,christians in this country hold regarding the ,chinese1 and when we think of the treatment the ,chinese have received at the hands of our nation1 the reading of the above is enough to make our faces crimson with shame not unmingled with indignation4 ,,selected4 99 99 99 99 99 ,,bureau ,,of ,,woman',s ,,work4 ,,miss ,d4 ,e4 ,,emerson1

the gospel condemns4 ,temperance is a gospel doctrine4 ,it is one of the great multitude of truths our missionaries proclaim4 ,when in this magazine we report progress in our work1 we are reporting progress in temperance1 for that is a part of our work4 ,if the word 8temperance0 doesn't always appear1 it is simply for the same reason that the words honesty1 chastity and truth1 are not always appearing as words4 ,they are always there in significance4 ,it is the work of the gospel to advance these virtues4 ,we make a few extracts showing the temperance interest as represented at some of our mission stations3 99 99 99 99 99 ,sunday was a busy day4 ,our ,sunday-school ,temperance ,workers held a meeting at a little ,methodist ,church1 called ,providence ,chapel4 ,the church was filled1 and we had a very good programme4 ,several little girls spoke temperance pieces1 and some of them spoke very beautifully and made a deep impression4 ,music and short1 stirring addresses1 and printed selections1 filled up the time1 and some new names were obtained for the pledge4 ,the hardest task1 almost1 is to induce the older men to give up tobacco1 but some of them came to that decision in the meeting4 ,providence ,chapel is surrounded by saloons4 ,the noble and energetic pastor spoke to the children of the ,sunday-school in such words as these1 8,if your mother tells you to go and get a glass of beer1 you tell her #8,no4' ,if she whips you1 come and tell me4 ,i want to know who she is4 ,be brave enough to tell her #8,no4'0 ,such words would sound very strange in some places1 but here they are needed1 for some of those very mothers are members of that church1 but they are getting aroused4 ,that meeting ,sunday did a great deal for them4 ,it also did our young people good1 by giving them an opportunity to do something and feel that they were doing something4 ,the meeting was carried on entirely by the colored people1 except that one of the teachers helped make out the programme1 another played the organ and another made a short address4 99 99 99 99 99 ,temperance is1 just now1 a subject of great interest in this ,state4 ,the ,legislature have just voted to submit the question of ,prohibition to the people next fall4 ,what a grand thing it would be if ,tennessee could become a ,prohibition ,state4 ,our little ,sunday-school ,temperance ,workers are doing well4 ,our last meeting was held at a large colored ,methodist ,church4 ,the house was nearly full1 and we had a very enthusiastic meeting4 ,many of the children spoke recitations very beautifully4 ,we had music1 essays1 and some words of counsel from the ministers of the two churches4 ,every one seemed to be very much interested4 ,mr4 ,j4 ,c4 ,johnson1 a prominent white philanthropist of this city1 was there1 and seemed very much pleased4 ,he said he wished we would go to some church every ,sunday and thought we would do a great deal of good4 ,the white temperance leaders feel the importance of securing the negro vote on their side1 and such questions as these1 which divide the white vote1 will go a long way toward securing the political rights of the black man4 99 99 99 99 99 ,one of our regular studies in school is 8,alcohol and ,hygiene10 and our class have become very much interested in it4 ,one of the class said to me a few days since1 8,i just thought people didn't drink because they did not want to become drunkards4 ,i didn't know there was so much harm in it1 but ,i am convinced now40 ,i think this expression is the sentiment of the class4 ,one of its members who could not sign the pledge four months ago1 did so at our last meeting4 ,she was influenced to the step by learning of the evil wrought by alcohol4 99 99 99 99 99 ,a ,woman's ,christian ,temperance ,union was formed at ,shelby1 with twelve members1 and there will doubtless be four or five more organized in other places1 when the delegates can have proper instructions1 and in no better way can the influence of our churches and work be felt1 than in this direction4 ,nothing has brought about such a desirable harmony as the temperance work in churches of all denominations1 and the mothers1 wives and daughters see more and more the necessity of uniting their influence against intemperance4 99 99 99 99 99 ,,english ,,as ,,she ,,is 8,,not0 ,,taught ,,in ,,our ,,schools4 ,,notes ,,by ,a ,,missionary ,,teacher4 8,i

temperance question4 ,we commenced having ,band of ,hope meetings over four years ago1 but did not ask the children to sign the pledge for many months1 for these little ones don't have temperance papas and mammas to help them keep their pledges1 so we did not wish them to sign till they knew well what was expected of them4 ,over fifty signed the first opportunity1 and ,i came home with a very heavy heart lest many signed because others did1 and did not realize the sacredness of their pledge4 ,i felt especially worried about ,johnny1 a little six-year-old1 whose father kept a hotel and had many men around him who drank4 ,it wasn't long before one of these men urged ,johnny to take a drink from his bottle4 ,he took some in his mouth1 and then he thought of his pledge1 and ran and spit it out2 then took some water and washed and washed his mouth4 ,little bright-eyed ,willie loved the taste of whisky1 and his father always gave him a sip of his drink4 ,after he signed the pledge1 he so stoutly refused his father when he urged him to drink1 that it affected him so that he1 too1 has signed the pledge for one year4 ,some little ones in another family1 who had always had their 8toddies10 as they call it in this country1 have been so true to their pledges1 refusing their grandfather1 who urged them to drink with him1 that it has influenced their mother to think she can do without whisky as a medicine1 and to become an enthusiastic member of our ,n4 ,c4 ,t4 ,u4 ,and so we see 8a little child shall lead them40 ,,mrs4 ,a4 ,a4 ,,myers4 99 99 99 99 99 ,,receipts ,,for
