Il GEN.


We find the following. gem in its way,
in the Democ.0f Of last week:
'-Niggers. free Americans oi African des-
cent-or, more politely speaking. LRcoln's
pet Lambs ARE good enough IN their
place but when they get out Of their proper
sphere. and mix in with the white citizens,
rs they do IL one OF the churches IL this
place, it is time they were made TO under
stand what belongs to negro manners The
congregation of this church are opposed to
making an African Synagogue of their tenn
pie of worship. There is church in town
where thew preach Niger; perhaps the
owners of these - colored Lambs" would
save the reputation of that church by send
ing them there, in place of allowing them
10 mix in where the congregation have no
taste for negroes or negro preaching"
The above was called forth by ludic-
day before last at the Espicopalian Church
in this place. The Junior editor of the
Democrat, we are informed, honored the
pastor and congregation with his presence
at evening service, and not being very
frequent attendant, sat down on a seat usu-
ally Occopupied by colored woman and
hsr daughter, domesties in the family Of
Mr.. H. e. Thayer. vt the appointed
hour for the services The colored ladies' APP
peared at the door OF the pew, and recog
niZing its unwOnied occupant, Eesitated
about catering. but, remembering tLat in
the house of God distinctions are never
tolerated, and Observing that their conduct
was attracting tie attention of the congre
CATION, they finally suppressed all indica-
tons Of distate for the company which
had forced itself upon them, aud sat down
beside the Copperhsad editor. We com
mend their example TO those narrow minds
who give themselves airs even in the pres
sncc of the Most High, forgetting that, as
from the altitude Of high mountain all
unevenness in eartlI's surface disappears,
so, from lie standpoint of mans inlmor-
tality, all differences OF rank or castdln
I" tie hnman family are lost TO sight" In
this instance, although en- extreme case,
no stain can attach itself to the ladies here
in spoken of, and their noble conduct has
given the editor no excuse for prcsuming
further upon their acquaintance His at
tempt to speak for the congregation is
wholly unauthorized by large majority
thereof Where ono has expressed SYM
patty for him. half-dozen have called on
the colored ladies' and assured them that
their feelings should not be tried in like
manner again.
