TEE Richmond ErdntHe4- has ex-
hisited q, special spite towards the city
of New Yerk, ever since the meeting
addressed by Horace Greeley and Hem
" Ward Beecher to raise funds for the
relief of suffering Southern people.
Every day or two since then. it.has in
dulged in some venomous fling at the
philanthropy of that city. In its issue
of February o, however, in order to hit
the New York Radicals, It inficts a
tremendous thwack upon the Demo-
cratic party. It relates that a gentle
man went North to obtain aid for a
Virginia railroad. He met with little
encouragement, and obtained little
money in New York; but he found 'sfar
more nberality and courtesy in the city
OF Boston, with all its Radicalism and
bitter traditions, than in Gotham. -
Then the Examiner proceeds as fol-
lows:
"A more singular evidence, however,
OF the truth OF this surmise is afforded
by comparison OF the result OF the re-
cent charitable enterprise in st. Louis,
for the poor of the South, with the re-
ceipts of the Relief Association,
which was organized a few weeks
ago in New York for the ttfur-
nishiug of bread to the famishing
widows and orphans of the Gulf States.
We learn from the Sun of that city. that
the returns, up 70 the last accounts,
amounted 10 81, 900, while the Radical
city Of st. Louis, with its prescription
and test oaths, and bitterness and
bloody memories, contributed to like
cause, in a single fair, SI24, ,700." 5l-.+
This statement is not at ali surprising
to Northern people. 1t will be well for
the Southern people when they open
their eyes to this wen-knowu and indis-
putable truth, that the Radicals are
their only real friends, in act as well as
profession. The Democratic city of
New York. containing more Southern
rebel refugees than all the other large
Northern cities combined, processes,
through all her Democratic organs and
orators, the most intense sympathy
with the South but when Southern
railroads. or manufactures, or schools,
require aid, the men to apply to for
material aid are the Radical cities
Even in New York, what little was
raised for Southern relief was raised
by the Radicals, through meeting
gotten mp and presided over by Radi-
Gals. and addressed by such men as
Greeley and Beecher.

THE Richmond Enquirer is by NO
means sure that those States into which
the eoIored people are now immigating
are to be counted fortu nate. or that the
States from which these emigrants pro-
ceed are to be .commiserated for their
loss. The negroes, it thinks, might be-
come a valuable class of society If they
were let alone, but under system Of
political management which viii last
as long as there are negroes it thinks
they will become more and more nox-
ious, because the radicals will always
use them as political capital. And in
this connection ii proceeds to set forth

man OF the Business Committee,
reported for discussion the follow
ing question:
"What are The proper qualifica-
tions of Sunday School Teachers for
their work2"
The points brought out in this
discussion were these: A success

list, Piety; End, A Competent
knowledge OF the Scriptures; Sd,
Ability to communicate intelligibly
level With tho comprehension
of children-the knowledge he pos,
sessesj 4th, Power to command
the respect and affection of the
children 9th, Puuctuality, which
is of the first Importance.
"WHEREAs: The absence of Teach,
ers from their classes is one great
cause of delinquency upon the part
Of the scholars, therefore,
"Resolred, That in the judgment
of this Association, it is just as
culpable for u teacher to be absent
--even from without
procuring q competent substitute,
as for a minister to leave his pulpit
unprovided for"
This resolution was discussed at
length, and adopted.
Rev. W. Il. Brown was introduc.
ed, and he presented several lessons
OH the black board, and give illus
trations of the utility OF this meth
cd of teaching.
The following question was also
presented for consideration:
"Whose duty is it to be Teachers
and have classes in the Sunday
School ?"
In connection with this question
the following resolution was offer
ed and adopted:
"ReSolo!d, That it is the duty Of
every member of the church, who
is not providentially hindered, TO
attend the Sunday School"
