NEW HAVEN, Nov. II, 1859
DEAR ANGLO The following card pub
lished in several of our city papers of last
week, is public tribute rendered by an
Anglo-Saxon to Anglo-African genius, skill
and science:
A CARD.
MEssRs EDIroRs:-WiI you have the kindness
to allow me the use of your columns to publicly
express my obligations to DR.. c. " R. Greed, of
this city, for the very successful professional SER
vices have received from him.
For the past fifteen or sixteen years have been
a constant sufferer from scrofula, which showed
itself in my system at an early age. During this
time have often been totally disabled, and at no
time have been free from suffering from this dis
ease, in some of its more acute forms. few
months since then unable to labor, was induced
to put myself under the care of DIR. Greed, which
I did though having little faith at the time that
should be benefited by his treatment, butt have
been very happily disappointed, for to the best OF
nv knowledge, am now entirely free from my
old enemy, the scrofula, and enjoying what have
not done before for nearly sixteen years-the
blessings of health.
| also feel under many obligations to Mr.. J. Z.
Beers, of the "West End Drug Store" flor the
care with which he has put up the medicines or
dered by DR.. c., and his ever oblging and court
eous treatment; and believe both these gentle
men at least equal to any others in the city in their
profession. And it is with pleasure that thus
publicly recommend them as worthy the entire
confidence of all who may have occasion for their
services JOHN BRYAN, Id Pine st.
New HAVEN, Nov. 8, 1859.
Dr. Greed is young colored physician,
who graduated in the medical department
of Yale University, over two years ago,
and has since, by his untiring industry and
skill, not only developed a successful prac-
tice, but, as seen by the above card, is
carving out for himself an enduring niche
in the temple of fame.
And here, whilst speaking on the sub
iect Of the medical science of an Anglo-Af-
rican, let me state that there are now three
regular colored students pursuing their
medical studies in the appropriate depart
ment of old Yale. Two of them (Messrs.
Ealbeck and Foster are Liberians-the
first by birth and the other by adoption
and they intend to return thither when
their medical course is completed. The
other student Mr.. Williams) is an una
liened American, but intends removing his
field of professional activity beyond the
borders of this slavery-accursed country,
when his studies are completed.
may also remark, en- PEASANT, that the
young Republic of Liberia is very well
represented in the institutions of learning
in our State, for, aside from the two medi-
cal students already mentioned, there is
also native Liberian pursuing a full class
ical course of studies at the Middletown
University, and is now completing his Sc
nior year. This student is Wilbur Fiske
Burns, Esq, son of Bishop Burns, of Libe-
ria. Whilst young Haytians are taking
the first literary honors of the University
of France, why may not some Liberians do
the same among the institutions in this
country2 Nothing but want of impair
tiality on the part of white Americans to-
wards the sable sons of Africa can prevent
the future realization of so glorious a re-
suit
The Sunday School attached to the Tenn
ple-street Congregational Church celebrat-
ed its anniversary in their religious edifce
last Wednesday evening, the 9th inst.
Children from several other Sunday Schools
were present. The exercises were of a
character to interest the young folks, for
whose benefit the celebration was held.
Appropriate rewards, with some refresh
ments, were distributed at the close of the
intellectual exercises The singing of the
children on the occasion was said by CON-
petent judges to be really unsurpassed.
A great deal of credit is due to the Chris
tan young men, students in Yale College,
and the young ladies of this city who unite
with them, in conducting this and other
colored Sunday Schools. These are really
praiseworthy labors of love; but, after say
ing so much in praise of the white young
ladies and gentlemen who conduct the
principal colored Sunday Schools of this
city, cannot refrain from asking the ques-
tion-where are our colored young men
and women of piety and education, who
ought to conduct them2 What has be-
come of those colored scholars who have
been trained up in these schools for the
last twenty years? Have none of these
evinced piety, zeal, and learning enough
to come forward to relieve their white tu-
tors of the task of experimenting and con-
Quoting colored Sunday Schools2 What
