The New York World has the impu-
dence to assert, four years after the war
for the rebellion has ended, that the COL
ored people of this country are morally
unfit for citizenship, because according
to the census of 1860, thirty six per cent.
of them were mulattoes, mostly born
out of wedlock This fact it regards as
conclusive evidence of the gross immor
ality of the colored women. Since the
bnlk Of the colored people resided in the
South in 1860, where their marriage was
not recognized by law, and since for this
gross injustice the white paramours Of
helpless black women were alone respon
sible, it strikes US that the logical result
of the Worlds arguments t. that soathern
whites, and not their late slaves. are
MORALLY incapacitated for the rights Of
citizenship,-Cin Gaz. 50. -. 49, ,ss7 ri

It is seldom pleasant to tell on ones

from some cause or other, seemed to

this young man said:

"My son bring the old party around
I have got some jokes in that lecture
that will make him laugh if there is any
laugh in him-and if they miss fire,
have some others that'll make him cry
or kill him, one or the other"
Then the young man blessed me, and
wept on my neck, and blew his nose on
my coat tail, and went after his uncle.
He placed him in full view, In the Sec
