Permit me through your columns to Call the
attention Of our citizen to the following card.
Lieut.. Fernald is native of Portland, and
having known him from his early youth can
assure the public Of his entire integrity. For
many years he has been specially interested in
the class for whom he now speaks. The cause
is certainly WORTH one, and have no doubt
will meet hearty and prompt response. l
shall be happy to take charge Of any donations
in this behalf BENZ. KINGsBuRY, Jr.
To the Public: wish to CALI the attention Of
the people of Portland to the present edHca-
tional condition of the coored people of Vir-
gina, with view Of obtaining assistance from
those disposed to aid them to attend school
under the present State system.
1t may be generally known that nearly every
freedmen's school that has existed in the south
has been nourished and sustained by the gen
erous people OF the North. Probably virginia
has received more attention from the friends OF
education than either of the other ooutnern
States, and no great has been the success which
has attended the education of the colored chill
drep. that the thousands of poor white people
ia Virginia have determined that their chill
dren shall go to school. Thus have years of
fo,tered opposition to free schools, vanished be-
fore the:conrageouse forts Of Northern teachers
who have left comfortable houses to brave in.
suits. abusive epithets and social ostracism in
order that the world might understand that
the colored people were human beings.
The late Legislature, during its last session
provided for State Superintendent of Educa-
lion, who In turn appointed Superintendent
for each county. Under their auspices some-
where near 1000 schools have been started, aud
20 rapidly has the opposition to teaching color
30 children disappeared that there is no diff
Guilty felt In obtaining teachers. The Superin-
tendent has prescribed the class OF books
known as the university series" for use IN
these schools. Thus it will be readily seen,
those unable to provide themselves with the |
kind of books prescribed, are prevented from
enjoying the benefits Of the free schools
10 Lyncbburg (where have resided since |
leaving POrtland) there are several hundred |
colOred children who will find it impossible to |
provide themselves with books, owing to the |
extreme poverty of their parents. i-.sf q |
Will the friends of education in Portland |
small sum for the purpose of pur- |
chasing school books for these children in |
This will probably be the last
assistance they will need. ! think that some
;w0 or three hundred dollars will be sufficient |
% furnish school books for the cOlOred children |
u Lynchburg. Any contribution to this OBJ
ect, however small, viii be thankfully receiv-
d and faithfully expended. Mayor Kingsbury
las kindly consented to aid in this matter, and
o whom people are requested to send their
