BAD PoLIcY.-Ap enterprising firm in
Washington City advertise preparation
or compound that will take the kink out
OF negro's wool, and make his hair
straight. We advise our colored friends
that it would be bad policy for them to
use the compound. Just as sure as they
get their hair straight, the radicals will
lose their affection for them. Keep your
wool, by all means, and, under no consi-
deration, have anything to 10 with q
preparation that will whiten your skin.
A HARD HIT.-"In plain English, {"
says the Pail Nall Gazette, q London
newspaper Of great influence, "wo ought
never to attach the smallest Importance
to any speech or declaration of policy
which comes to us from the United
States. This is q hard hit. but when
we reflect thatit was caused by Summers
Alabama speech, we, Of the South Mt
least, can put up with it without feeling
hurt, or demanding from the London
paper al apology, with ''pistols and
coffee for two" in case of refusal on its
part to comply with our demand.
