Honor to Whom 'Tis Due.

Il is with great pleasure We record a
recent act OF onr citNaeovernment. It
is vindication OF the citizens of Au-
gusta. Here, and in all the South, it
is always affirmed that the former mas
tiers feel q deeper interest i'll the wei
fare and elevation OF their recently
emancipatcd slaves than strmgers do
or can feel. They claim TO be their
best friends. The evidence OF truth OF
these declarations seem to be wanting.
There were no means devised or mea-
sures adopted which tended to their
elevation OF Improvement IL any con
siderable degree. A few weeks since,
Rev Dr. Parker, Of Washington, d. o.,
came here TO make arrangements for
the establishment of Training School
for Preachers and Teachers among tie
freedmen and the colored people. lie
was acting as Secretary Of the Nation
nj Theological Institute, which was
chartered by Congress May, 1866.
After gathering about fifty men into
day and evening classes, and forming
an association for the promotion OF the
education OF Teachers and Preachers,
The importance Of building for the
use Of such school was SEEN. The
Doctor made an application to the City
Council for land on which to erect a
building for the use Of a school. It
Was received and referred to the Com
mittec on South Common, whorcport-
ell in favor OF granting the request. At
4 subsequent meeting of the City Coun-
Gil they accepted the report, and grant
al The land for the use of the National
Institute Here, then, is proof Of into
rest in the elevation of the cOlored
people which mono can gainsay. We
say, MI honor to the men who have
acted so promptly and so well in this
matter; and All honor to the citizens
OF Augusta who 50 heartily approve
their course. We congratulate all CON
ccrncd. We know the purpose is To
erect suitable building during the
wear The plan of educating the lead
ers Of the people, is the most practical
bic and economical OF any that has
been proposed. It is only by some
such method that the present eXigcncy
can be met. Already a number OF
teachers have been sent from the III
Stluction of this school to take charge
Of primary scholars. They are doing
well. We believe, If the National In
stitute succeeds in carrying out its
plan, Augusta will feel 2 pride il what
has been done, and within four years
make her boast Of precedence in this
movement for the education Of hernew
made citizens. We hail the act of the
city, and the effort Of the Association,
rs an omen for good All honor to our
beautiful city.

the right was most unconprisins.
The Blood of Martyrs is at the founda-
ton of every principle whose influence
We today enjoy-either in religion or
under the Constitution of our country.
What holOcausts Of lives have been
offered up to confirm liberty to the
formerly oppressed in our land! The
life of every man, if devoted to the
end made legitimate with its creation,
will be one of resistance "unfo blood"
If need be, against wrong and in the
faithful support of the right.
The colored men of the South I'M
derstand the meaning of patient en-
durance in suffering. They are releas-
ed from this form of oppression-let
them thank God!
They must not, however, understand
that because OF their deliverance they

further endurance in behalf OF the
right. 1t may be that in the Provi-
dence of God some of the colored men
of to-day may be called up to lag doac,.

The Republican Party has "a sacred

ABYssINIA.-A recent traveller says
that in exquisite scenery few countries
can rival Abyssinia. There hills rise
above hills, clothed in luxurlant vegc-
tation, and mountain peaks tower to
the height of Mont Blanc. The villages
and hamlets are embosomed in dark
groves Of evergrecns and grouped in
Arcadianrepose. Innumerablc streams
furrow the soil, and there are many
beautiful lakes, one near the capital,
Condor, being 200 miles in circum-
ference. Healthy and beautiful, the
country has fruitful soil, which yields
bountiful harvests, and coal and iron
abound, the latter in almost a pure
state. The coal fields are extensive
and the quality excellent. Abyssinia
also possesses a source of inexhaustible
wealth in the cotton tree, and lands pc
culiarly adapted to the production of
cotton.
The retail price of opal at the yards
in New York is now $40 per ton.

Seventy-cight colored men in Washington,

We wish to say a. word upon the

It is principle applying everywhere
in the moral world, that no great and

served, but through sacrifice and suf-
fering.

1t was thought by some that we had better
get the Parker IL Watson Series, which is the
most used in the Schools, simply because some
had got it, for the sake of uniformity; but my
recommendation prevailed. One gentleman
present, who had used both, stated that he had
used the other as long as he cared to, and con
sidcrcd the Wilson Series as FAR superior,
giving an example of the difference of time
required in teaching new pupil, the prefc
renee being decidedly In favor of the latter
series. SO we, starting this new movement,
have decided to get the best book eXtant, so far
as we knew them.
(SigncD S. WILLARD SAxToN.
From the American Freedman (Rev. LYMAN
ABBOTT.)
'The peculiar characteristic Of this Series
lies in the fact that they aim to impart, as far
as possible useful information. For this pur-
GUS subjects of science and history, graded to
the capacity ofdifIerent pupils, and so arranged
that when the five volumes have been care
fully read, the student, in addition to know
ledge of reading, will have acquired a conside-
rablc knowledge in many departments Of
study, such as will lay the foundation for more
complete instruction aiterward"
They arc therefore peculiarly adapted to the
pressing needs and quick perceptives OF the
colOred children. Each book is profusely and
handsomely illustrated, and the Illustrations
are ALL intended to render the comprehension
of the reading matter more easy The follow
ing testimonials have been selected from a
large mass of a similar nature :.

Dear Sir-I have been familiar with the
Readers from their first publication, and am
free to say to you, as / have uniformly said to
teachers, superintendent, and others, that,
all things considered, l regard them as the
best Series before the public The leading
peculiar feature of this Series was happy in
spiratiOn of the author, and the execution of
the plan so well done az scarcely to admit of
improvement. Mr. Wilson's style of compo.
sition in the lower numbers of the Series, and
something of his plan in the higher numbers,
have been initiated by some later writer's of
school readers with decided advantage to their
works. Hence Mr.. Wilson has not only made
peerless Series of his own, but has elevated
the general standard Of such works. When
ever my choice has not been constrained by
circumstances, have always used this Series
both in the white and colorcd schools with
which have been in any way connected
