Believing that the publication of your in
valuable magazine is doing more to do
away with the wicked prejudice existing
against the black man, and to elevate him
socially and politically, than by any other
effort being made; and feeling that great
good would result from placing it within
the reach of the masses, l will give ten dol
lars towards creating a fund for placing a
copy in every public library in this coun-
try"

COLORED YOUNG WOMEN OF NEW
YORK,

Mr. EprroR:-In your paper of the 18th inst.
appeared communication over the signature of
"a member of Shiloh" in which the inquiry is
made, what are the colorsd young men of New
York doing" Permit poor beardless youth to
suggest that the Same question might be asked
with propriety in relation to our young women.
Instead of improving their minds, are they not
found perfecting themselves in the games of cards,
dominoes, billiards, and Mr.. Morphy's favorite
game of chess!
In Mrs R. VS., j. BIS, D. T.'s, s. SIS, a.,
HIS and various other sporting cribs, (exeuse
me-places to improve the mind,) are found the
most intelligent of our young, and of the old al
so-the youth of eight or ten years, and the old
man of eighty. Should this be SO?
BROTHER Shiloh, you have spent many days on
the ocean, for which / respect you, as do every
sea-faring man, and can say that the same Great
Spirit that protected you has kept me not only
through enc storm, but many; and may the

THE TREADWELL MUsKETEERs.

Mr.. EDITOR; The annual parade of the
Treadwell Musketeers took place last
Wednesday the 10th inst This fine body
of men, under the command of that able
officer, Capt. Richard Johnson, assembled
at Bozeman's Hall, and after marching
through some of our principal streets, took
the cars for Mott Haven, where the day
was spent pleasantly, nothing occurring to
mar the pleasures of the occasion save the
accidental shooting of Mr.. Joshua Horton,
which, am happy to say, was not attend
ed with very serious result. The prizes
contended for were numerous and valuable,
and the principal ones were won by the
following gentlemen: William Liggins,
Richard Johnson, Johnson Berry, Joseph
Davis, Ezekiel Blue, Robert Tappan, and
your correspondent, who asks to be per-
mitted to render his hearty thanks to his
brothers in arms" for the various nantes
tations of friendship extended to him on
that occasion, and hopes that if kind
Providence permits him to return to these
shores, from which duty calls him, he will
again have the pleasure of participating in
the festivities of similar gathering.
