STRANGE REVELATION.

Tie Rev C. X. Marshall, Of Missis-
sippi, writes to the Baltimore Episcopal
Methodist as follows.
| am preparing for publication, in one
paper, an article on the relapse of our
negroes into the vilest African supersti-
tions. The downward way out here is
frightful Leading old artful negroes
are carrying hundreds of deluded fell
lows along with them in the new religion
which they teach. Among its first prin-
ciples are the following: That God who
governed formerly is dead that the
Yankee war overthrew Him that He
was slave of God; that Christ was the
white mans slave; that He upheld white
folks in sustaining the institution Of
slavery; that He is now defunct and
that two old negro women are elevated
to the Christhood, and invested with full
authority and power to manage the inte-
rest of the salvation.
From the established reputation OF the
reverend writer, we cannot question the
truth of this revelation 1t merely ex-
hibits phase of negro superstition
which, running 10 waste in so called free
dom, lapses finally into barbarsm, snake
worship, and other shocking deusions
In Hayti, Jamaica, San Domingo, and
sundry localities where the negro has
experienced sudden emancipation, and
galvanized emancipation and galvanized
civilization. these wofu results are com
mon and proverbial. Ignorance, un-
checked aud unproductive, drives him
headlong into crime and idolatry. The
savage has been unclaimed within him,
and the minute Incidence pampers the
perverse imp to bloated depravity, that
minute the negro nature transcends
thousand years and returns to its
native jungle and unhallowed fe.
tish AS Christian men, as men
who have cherished this people in
the past and desire their present and
future welfare, something must be done
to arrest their fearful retrogression. A
judicious system Of education should be
adopted to illumin c their minds, and,
following the exa,hpe Of the Catholic
Church, some eiigious discipline inau-
gurated TO save their souls The North
ern people have always Trough some
misdlrerted frenzy, bun iae worst foes
of the negro. Their cmissaries, male
and female, have taught them doctrines
of hate and delusion. We must take
them in charge ourselves. If the infer
nal agitation of politics could only be
stiled, every Southern State would march
square up to the line of duty in this res
pect Until such agitations cease, and
until we are permitted to regulate our
own affairs, little can be effected for
their good Should the present rage Of
fanaticism hold its own during the next
five years, we see little hope for the ne
gro race in time, whatever it may hope
for in ernity.-Axgusta Constitution

A PLEASANT STORY.

The following pleasant little story is
taken from an old paper, but is not out
of time:
On the whole, pleasant traits and incl
dents are not uncommon in cars This
opinion | expressed to my friend Somers
the other day. In reply to my remark,
he related a little adventure, which, as
it is aprepos, moreover involves little
love and sentiment, l give it without
apology, in his own words. 1t appears
that in the most unlikely places, love
and sentiment may be discovered.
/ was escorting home the lovely Char
lotte D., to whom was at that time
quite devoted. We got into one of the
crowded avenue cars. Charlotte could
scarcely find room to spread her crino-
line aud arrange her hounces; | stood
up near her, there being no vacant seat.
After few minutes there came in a
poor woman, who deposited basket on
the platform and held in her arms a
child, while little girl hung to her dress.
She looked tired and weary, but there
was no vacant seat to be sure, Charlotte
might have condensed her hounces, but
she did not. Beside her, however, sat a
very lovely and elegant young woman,
who seemed trying by moving down
close to others, to make space enough
for the stranger between herself and
Miss D.. At last she succeeded, and
with the sweetest blush ever saw, she
invited the poor, burdened female to be
seated. Charlotte D. drew her dra-
perry around her and blushed at all, and
she looked annoyed at the proximity of
the new conner, who was, however, clean
and decently, though thfnly clad.
The unknown lady drew the little girl
upon her lap, wrapped her velvet mantle
around her small halfcad form, and put
her muff over the half frozen little blue
hands
So great was the crowd that | alone
seemed to observe The child shivered !;
the keen wind from the door blew upon
its unprotected neck. saw the young
lady quietly draw from under her shawl
a little Grim son wooden shawl which she
softly put on the shoulders of the little
one. The mother looked on with con-
fused wonder After a short time she
rose to leave the car, and would have re-
UOFeu lHt SnhWi, Dut lHc uuhuOWH u BcHtiJ
whispered, mo, no, keep it for her. "
The woman did not answer The con-
ducter hurried her out, but her eyes swan
in tears, which no one saw but me,
noticed her as she descended to base
ment, and hastily marked the house.
Soon after, my unknown also arose to
depart was in despair for / wanted to
follow and discover her residence, but
could not leave Miss D..
How glad, then, was to see her bow
ing as she passed out to mutual &C
quaintance who stood in the doorway.
From him, ere many minutes, ! learned
her name and address. --r...
To shorten the story as much as pos
sible, the lady is my wife. In the small
incident which introduced me to her she
showed her real character A few days
after our marriage, | showed her the
blessed crimson shawl which / had re-
deemed from the owner and shall always
keep it as a memento There are some
times pleasant things to be found in un-
expected places. Certainly, may be
said to have picked out a wife in the
cars
