The Louisville Democrat, in an article
upon the late act Of the Massachusetts Leg
islaturc forbidding the licensing Of any OK
hibition intcn led or calculated to bring any
person into ridiculc or contempt on account
of his race or color, uses the following lam
gunge:
"Therd is O reason for it, The day when
the merry exhibition Of phases Of the negro
character passed, then the condition that
INDUCED them in harmless merriment was
lost. Its signs are already shown. No ono
looks at the negro soldier and sees those
exhibitions Of kindly glec that lit up their
dark faces with that glow Of good humor
that involuntarily drove the hand Of the
looker-on into his pocket for an extra dime,
TO be well repaid by the gro,esque bow and
broad grin. Over the wide river their mer-
ry boat songs will no longer 60 swinging
in melody among the echoes Of the shores.
No more at evening, when work is done,
will the song, enriched by quaint phrase
olory, float from the cabins of the laborers
and no longer the fiddle ringo to tho hoo
down of the brisk feet. That day is past,
and soon the entertainments which xhibit-
ei it become untrue to the reality and val
uelcss. HencefOrth the day of irrepressiblc
enjoyment becomes o thing OF the past.
The bear, bleak reality falls upon the negro
that he is nm alien race in . land of stron-
ger and more progressive people. There is
nothing before him bat swift decay and
destruction. The play is played out; tho
laughter over, and the curtain rises todagk-
or scenes for him and bis children"

Signs of returning business are aocunu-

trade between Galveston and Houston; the
Lone Star, the Mary Hill and the A. 3. Ruth

many Galvestonians with their household

trips per week. and brings m my passengers
