ABOUT TOWN.
BY OUR REPORTER.

Although things are dull in Dryades
street, there are still many Of the mem
bers Of both houses in town. 1t is SAID
that a party OF gentlemen representing
the Fifteenth Amendment, and other
constituencies, are preparing for sum-
lner fight North, and that some of them
may sustain themselves on the wing as
far as Europe. Go on, boys, but don't
be tempted into that city of black cats
meat and red republicanism, if you do,
the pelican may scream for You in vain.
We learn that Senator Barber has dis
covered very valuable sulpher spring

Its medicinal properties have been high

There wasa enthusiastic meeting in the
third ward last Saturday night-so en-
thusiastic that the meeting consisted of
all speakers and no hearers. Mr.. Sella
Martin had been invited to address the
club, and somebody had concocted some
resolutions, and the confusion seemed to
arise from disposition to bully the
president on one side and to prevent the
resolutions from being read on the other.
The president introduced Mr.. Martin who
had the floor taken from him by man
who said he thought no man ought to be
legislator whose children were not born
with shoes on their feet. Somebody said
that would be bad business for him as he
was a shoemaker. and the retort was
made that it would be a great deal worse
for those who had to manufacture shoes
II the way proposed. Finally the shoes
cAtae down at the heel and the meeting
went slipshod Then there sprung TIP
an anxiety about benches. A number of
men in seeking to get the floor took the
berches-the owner of them thought
they were going to take them off: and he
rose to give them a word of advice but
as everybody had been advising his
neighbor for half hour, and nobody
could hear what the other said, and the
president had sought in vain to restore
order that an invited guest might b.,
heard, the meeting was declared ad-
journed.
Our reporter calculated among the
people after the meeting to ascertain the

SELF-DENIAL.

Mr. Sauvinet colored gentleman went
in to one of our white saloons and offered
twenty five cents for drink and the bar
keeper suddenly became such an ad-
vocate of temperance principles that he
went down to Judge Dibble's Court and
paid thousand dollars rather than have
Mr. Sauvinet take the drink. Verify this
i, self denia'. When a man is willing to
give thousand dollars to keep another
luan from drinking, he is either on his
way 20 heaven or to court of Justice.
Some people were uncharitable enough
to think that this saloon keeper refused
10 give Nh. .,auvinet a drink because he
thought Mr.. Sauvinet was colored, but
his lawyer il moving for new hearing
IL his case has silenced for ever all
such traducers of his Giants self-denying
characteristics.
It was stated by the lawyer that Mr..
Sauvinet is white, though Mr. Sauvinet
contends that he is colored. Now If any
act of self-denial can eclipse that OF a
saloon keeper who throws away q thou
sand dollars to prevent a man from
dr;nkinga beverage which he makes a
living by selling, this lawyer has eclips-
ed it. He has surrendered his personal
preiudices to professional success with a
grace and hberality difficult to be found
in a member of the bar Where was
this lawyer when Messrs. Bell and
Shadd applied for admission to the
Supreme Court 9. Surely he could not
have been iii court had he been, he
would have sworn by all the books from
Blackstone to Pcttifog that Bell was
whitehall is if ne goes by the sight of
his eyes. But this case admits of another
supposition perhaps this lawyer goes
by weight. Il so the whole case is intel
lis;ble for since slavery has been
abolished no mans mere color Is worth a
a thousand dollars TO bay. Now if the
saloon keeper became 50 chagrined o. the
imposition Of the iine that be offered to
pay the thousand dollars TO the lawyer if
he could save him from the penalty of
paving it to Sauyiret, the lawyer had

and yet. while depending mainly on
our OWL color for the enterprise and the
brain, the culture and the patronage to
make our organ what we desire it to be-
come, We do not reject assistance in any
OF these respects when offered by our
white friends. Come gentlemen with all
you have to offer and be assured you are
welcome to 81 We have to give.

cause of the rumpus and it was said on
al hands that men had been released at
an early hour from their work ON the
streets to 60 to the club and vote for GER
tain resolutions although they were not
members of the club. We trust in the name
of fairness this is not so, but there is an
easy remedy for any such interferences
and that is to vote by ayes and nays
For tie honor Of the old third we trust
no more such scenes rs Saturday night
will be exhibited.
The fourth ward club held its regu-
lar meeting on Monday night last,

address on the coming issues of the
campaign for which he received unani-

Lucy Hutton and several other young ladies'

on the distinguished patronage they re-
ceived

very weighty reasons for trying the
somewhat desperate experiment of at
tempting to make Judge Dibble believe
that 'black is white" A thousand dollars
will buy q thousand drinks aud some
people think the best drinks are
those which are bought with other peo-
plIs money; if then both the lawyer and
the saloon keeper thought they could
get back from Mr.. Sauvinet the thousand
dollars, Judge Dibble had awarded him
and spend it in treating every colored
man they met with the view of proving
the sincerity of their conversion to the
civil rights bill, we are glad to record
an act OF self-denial that eclipses the
former deeds of even these gentlemen.
After all we may be on the eve of a
greater change than any of our former
suggestions imply. When white men
begin to disbelieve orr own words as to
our partial connection with the African
race, it is time for the whole continent
OF Africa to tremble. In the olden time
the whites used to put us in some social,
civil or political corner and subject us
to phisio-chemical process to find out
If there was one drop on African blood in
any OF our veins and ifthey found it they
would squeeze it till a negro insurrec-
ton come forth in response but now
the danger is that they will wash us and
comb US until We become as white as Al
binos, or soap and water failing they
will carry out Hoods idea of gliding
us yellow when they can not make us
white, and then change the effort from
making black white" to making yellow
blue-at least in the veins
Ii these mencan disprove our origin they
may also deny our identity, con6scate our
property and rob US of our very wives and
daughters on the ground that the latter are
white. Here is new and terrific danger :;
there are SO many colored men who are
passing for white and so many others
whom it would appear will not be allow
ed hereafter to pass for colored, that
things threaten to become hopelessly
mixed
There may be one refuge left us-the
lawyer may have been "bamboozling us"
Said an old limb of the law to his son,
lin your practice always stand by the
law when the evidence is against you
"What mnst do when the law is against
me ?" "Then," said the father, stand
by the evidence" But suppose law and
and evidence are both against me ?"
"Well, then-why talk round it my son,
talk round it." Our lawyer, with beta
law and evidence against him must have
been talking round it for thousand
dollars heat

RELIGIOUS ITEMS AMONG US.

Rev. WILDER G. Strong. preached last
sunday night at st James Chapel to an
overlooking house and the hearers paid
marked attention to discourse of an
hours length. The reverend gentleman
was in one of his most happy moods.
He ilucidated his text with clealness that
showed careful and intelligent study OF
it, and handled his general gubject with
the ease and grace which have united to
put him among the first preachers in col
ored denominations. We shall hail with
Joy the day when we will be able to leave
The word color out of every thing religious
and when that time arrives Mr. Strong will
be among the first to take rank with and
set the same salary as white men OF his
calibre of mind
We congratulate the people of Mobile
IN possessing so able minister of the
gospel and so fearless an advocate of
republican principles For 9 long time
Mr.. Strong has been known as an
efficient and uncompromising advocate
of the equality Of all men in the North,
and though for the last year or more he
has had to prove his sincerity, like Paul,
by working with his own hand; we are
glad to learn that he is no longer in the
Post Office at Mobile but has time to
devote to those benevolent works in which
he SO much delights.
Bishop Talbot OF tho 4. NJ f. Zion
Church paid us q call while holding his
Conference here last week. We are glad
to know that the interest of that branch
Of the church is in such able hands. and
trust that the strides already made by
this denomination since the war, will be
quickened and increased until the minis
ters and churches composing it shall be
able to show us good support and as fine
edifces with as large congregations and
as good moral results as the best
Deacon Chamberlain, Of New York,
a philanthopist we'll known among lis
for the noble work he has done by de-
voting part of his wealth to the educa-
ton OF our colored youth, in founding
Iceland University, was in the city yes
terday. We visited the University with
him, and the school held in the basement
of Mr.. Satchells church.
The address delivered by Deacon
Chamberlain to the children was entire
ly characteristic of the man. Thought
full, kind, and instructive, it was at the
same time intensely practical. The chill
dren seemed delighted at the fatherly
words of one who had contributed SO
much towards their education, comfort
and general elevation. We trust that many
more snch friends will be raised up to
assist us in our poverty and eager
search after knowledge.

EG~An official recapitulation by Gen.
Howard OF :he late ku-KIux outrages in
Mississippi confirms all that has been
heretofore published illustrative Of the
atroc.ty OF these outlaws, and the political
motives which impel them to muroer and
arson. Republican voters and school
houses are the particular objects OF their
wrath, and they are sworn to prevent the
spread alike of Repubiicanism and gen.
eral intelligence. Gen. Howard's painful
story is accompanied by an assurance
that the new law is very speedily to be
enforced, and this is somc consolation.

kU-KLUXIS3i.

The Southern people proved the insin-
cerity of their theory respecting the
superiority Of the white race over the
black race long years before the war,
by keeping up constant state Of ku-
kiuzisIl in defence of their peculiar in
stitution at the expense OF their own
race
Freedom Of no kind was respected,
save as it protected bondage; and there
'ias rarely am deviation from the mode
Of protecting themselves from outside in

abol:tiouisin was suffered to fall across
then borders. II u person was suspected
OF coming among them tainted with the

born free and equal, the fact WAS susici-
cnt to subject hin to outrage; and 50
