WOMEN AND NEGnoEs.--N the womsns
rights convention in Providence, recently,
Fred Douglass wac one Of the speakers, aud
expressed his views thus:
lie could not, he remarked, say much about
wOmen's wrongs Men love them too much 10
| wrong them. II every one Of their wrongs on
| the statute book were righted, he would still say
| Let them vote. lie expected TO see women take
their places on the Hoor Of congress some time
and WELD influence there. Let the women and
negroes stand together and both would have sui.
! frsge rights. lie wanted the ladies to take the
negro under their wing. laughter
Yes, by all means "let the women and
negroes stand together" That is good, de-
cidedly. But the other idea is better-"lot
the ladies take the negro under their wing
Spread your wings, dear ladies, aud gather
a brood of darkies under them as hen
gathereth her chickens. Never mind your
families, your neighbors, your race, but
take care of the negroes; spread yourselves
to the utmost for their protection. That i.

CORNELL UNIVERSITY. Recent accounts
from this university demonstrate the working
Of the plans for providing work for the students
who wish to pay their own way. They receive
tuition for nothing, but are expected to board
aud elothe themselves, and, in order that they
may do this, every facility is afforded them to
perform manual labor, and honestly earn that
support. A large number OF the best students
in the university are now paying their way at
various trades and occupations. Quite num-
Der work on the university farm at liked price
per hour, and live on their earnings. Others,
not so skilled in labor, take to the Iuder tasks
OF building roads aud oauseways, picking up
stones and doing any chores that offer, and so
provide themselves with food aud raiment.--
New buildings will soon be put up, and in their
construction scores of students will find profit.
