is degenerattng In this respect. Butt must
give credit for an advance In a better song Of
the negroes. Hearing some most enhancing
chornl straius at IN African church, was
passing yesterday afternoon, I stepped in, and
took back seat. The house WAS better than
the best Methodist church in Montgomery
where Rev. Mr. Milburn, the blind preacher,
was It's pastor. There WIS an organ leading
the choir, and well played; and the choir was
full Of both sexes Of tie colored people, who
held their music and hymn books both.
There's negro singtna passing now while, I
write. The negro Is abund1e Of music, and q
strange commi1ture Of song and sorrow. But
had never heard sueh, sing to the strains OF
the organ in well conducted church. The
| minister Was negro, sud preached from care
| fully written notes, very sensible, aud at
times, eloquent and classical sermon. There
YVES no shouting, or swaying to and fro, In
| any Of the services. They would have done
credit to any white congregation. This is .
