MONEY FOR THE NEGROES.


The Senate, ON Tuesday the goth passed
joint resolution appropriating S25. 900 for the
relief of the destitute colored peopleof the Dis
trict of Columbia, to be expended under the III
rection of the Commissioner of the Freedmen's
Bureau. The excuse for this, given by Mr.
Morrill, of Maine, was that a large number of
colored people were now congregated in the
vicinity of Washington, in state of poverty
and destitution, and literally breeding disease
and death; and that this sum was necessary,
not only for the sake of humanity, but as a
sanitary prccaution.
+. TThe poor white people, with whom many of
these negroes have been brought in competition,
will naturally ask, who invited this crowd OF
law and helpless negroes to leave the ''old plan
tation-the home where the old folks stay
where the means of living were abundant, and
90 to Washington to live in filth, and spread
disease and deaths Why don't the philanthro-
pists touch their own pockets, instead OF Dip

TAXING CLERKS FOR ELEC-
TIONS.

The 'tNew Hampshire Union Club made an
assessment of one and half per cent on the
sal aries of all government clerks from that
State-for the purpose of aiding the election IN
that State-being $27 on an $500 clerk and
SIS on $1,000 clerk .s.s, ns
F. b. johnson, a clerk in the Paymaster Gen
erals Office, declined to respond, on the ground
that he was not voter, and had never given a
cent for the purpose of bribing voters, and
never would.
The President endorsed Mr.. Johnson's letter,
and recommended him to the Paymaster Gen
eral for early promotion; the latter endorsed
the young man mot yet of asel as of good
character and conduct, and a good clerk, who
had been soldier in the army, and to become
which he left his school in New Hampshire.

How Deacon Brown Fell.

In Sangamon county, Illinois, lived Deacon
Brown a very staid, dignifcd sort Of Christian,
aud a perfect mH.lGlL of iAr9prlcty. Deacon
Brown had the misfortune to lose his wife, and
at the age of forty found himself withafortune
of four small children, without mistress to his
farm house. As he could not Immediately
take another wife and escape scandal, and could
not get along without some one 70 take charge
of the kitchen and nursery, he had recourse to
employ young woman as bouscmaid. Marcy
Stearns was laughing, romping beauty, who
delighted in experimenting on the Deacon, by
way of testing the strength Of human nature;
but at last, in moment Of unguardcd weak
ness, he was led into temptation, into commit
ting Slight indiscretion with his beautiful
housemaid- When, in his woDted cooness and
presence Of mind, Inc was Mortified ut the enor-
nifty of his sin, in vain he repented and
gricved over lost virtue. Finally, as a last re-
sort for casing his conscience, at the conclusion
of service on the following Sabbath morning,
he arose and requested the forbcarancc Of the
brethren and sisters a few minutes, when no
electrified them by making the following con-
icssion /" Ny Christian friends, you all know
that lost my dear wife some time ago [sobs
and tears and that Nancy Stearns has been

child would cry in the night and it would bca
long time before could quiet it and last
Tuesday night-God forgive-thc child cried
so hard that Nancy arose and came into tho
room. and leaned over the bed TO hush the child;
and, brothers and sisters, her leaning over mo

deacon broke down entirely, and stood weeping,
wailing, aad blowing his nose. What did you
do ?" stcrnly demanded the minister. 81
-I-ki-ki-kissedh her y stammercii the dea-
con. between bis sobs " but have been very
sorry about it, and prayed to be forgiven and
want you TO forgive and pray for me, broth
ers and sisters" AS the deacon bowed himself
upon his seat, like the mighty oak before the
t,rnailo. Deacon Goodfelow arose and aston
ished the audience, still moro by SAYING
" Brothers and sister, you have heard what
Brother Brown has said, and now he wants our
forgiveness. For MY own part, think Broth
