In BAD TAsTE.-There is a place, as
we'll as a time, for all things, and we
think the placing of a negro boy in
the midst of the bevy of beautiful
white girls on the stage at the Episco-
pal Sunday School concert, Tuesday
evening, was in decided bad taste. The
boy, perhaps, is not to blame for hav-
ing no better n than to place him
self in such a position, but his parents
and the managers of the concert ought
to have had. Such exhibitions of
maudlin sentiment are particularly
disgusting. So long as the negro re-
mains among negroes, he is respecta-
BILE; among whites, he iscontemptible.
1t is impossible to make a banana of a
beet. Assigned the post of honor, the
little negro's head, sticking up from
the midst of a large circle of gaily
dressed and beautiful white girls,
looked like a black wart set abroach
with pearls, or a frost bitten globular
cactus set in a bouquet of lilies. If this
boy is forced into the society of white
children continually, as seems to be
the desire of his parents, he may be-
come a white man on attaining his ma
jOrity-but we doubt ii. Toad-StOolS
never become cabbages, wen though
they be placed in a garden.
GUILTY.-A second jury, yesterday,
found the Chinese restauranter guilty
of stealing or buying stolen chickens,
and Justice Parkinson fined him $50
and costs amounting to $IO5), in de-
fault of which be was Sent to Jail. 1t
is thought the fine will be paid to-day.
District Attorney Patterson deserves
credit for energy and industry shown
in the prosecution Of this case, and it
is TO be hoped that Justice Parkinson's
sentence will have a salu;ary effect
upon chicken thieves in general.
