DEDIS S.ATESS,

The dedication Of the new hall lately built
by Mr.. S. +. Brown took place last evening
Situated on Melpomene street, No. l3o, the
new hall rises, a two-St0ry frame building.
containing large cCoIn on the lower tOo".
Ii, M hy chandeliers, about eighty feet IL
length by forty in breadth, fitted up with
music stand and tie usual series Of ante
rooms. Up stairs the house is divided OF
into refreshment and cloak rooms. a closet.
gallery in front sets oil the exterior. The
main room below is ;astetuliy hung with
pictures. and shades fail over tie we'll
,ighted windows Though built in the
Dlainest manner, the designer and owner
has succeeded in adding a new place OF
meeting to the number in the city destined
to he Of good service hereafter.
Quite a gathering of the people, who
came from all directions, far and near oc-
cupied the rooms, and enjoyed themselves
about the building. A good band OF music
had been provided, which soon began a
lively waltz, in the mazes of which the
guests participated with great willingness.
Lieutenant Governor pinchback, having
been brought forward by the host, made
the assemblage an address, in which, after
congratulating Mr.. Brown on the success OF
| his enterprise. he regretted that all OF his
| race had not shown the same character
! istics that had led him to success, mol
brought into requisition those traits which
would make them masters of property
| and capable of welding an influence
What would be the result should
celored men own stock enough tt
| control the railroads and hotels
| Their class would be treated respect
fully. and instead of placing ladies and
gentlemen in the smoking cars, they would
! be entitled to the same accommodation as
| white men On paying for it. What wo''io
be the result OF owning large hotel ike
the st. Charles, Instead of having to look
| around among private families for accom-
modations for those members OF the con
| yeuticn who will arrive here, more suitaoie
ouarters could be provided. The statute
books were crowded with laws when Ell
forced the rights Of the colored man. ou'
| the mere law was not all that was "ahteu-

difficulties and overcome them. IL was soc
had that in public places there were those
! whose cheeks were as fair, whose locks
wrye as Haxen. and be- auty as resplen
dent as any, but who, from their color
| ,ra rr;ed out while the lowest, the most II
T,erate and the dirtiest white man coule
he received. This. in the "land Of the free
and the home of the brave"' The ballo
was worthless mot welded with discretion
aDd even the rights already obtained by th'
coIored people were not secure without tn
supremacy Of the Republican party.
It being the festival Of Mi Careme, Mr
Pinchbacks remarks were soon followed b.
more dancing, and the festivity kept u
until the dawn.

An Immense Undertaking.

The recent visit of the Russian Gar
to the southern part of his Empire had
particular reference to the projected
junction of the Caspian Sea with the
Black Sea. The entire length of
the canal will be six hundred and thir-
ty Russian versts, about four hundred
miles, though the mountain chain to be
pierced only measurers eight versts, or
about five miles,. 1t is calculated that
thirty-two thousand laborers will have
to be employed for fully six years in
order to complete the undertaking.
Quite apart from the commercial adj
vantages which would result from the
completion of this canal, it would serve
to replenish the Caspian Sea with water,
a highly important Consideration. Dur
ing the last decade, and even longer. a
remarkable reduction of water was no
| ticed, SO much that the final extinc
ton, that is, exsiccation, of the sea was
apprehended. The result woul MOI
only be malarious in the extreme, but
also destructive of great source O
wealth, namely, the sturgeon, istealet
and seal fisheries. ..s.- ..... .-.e -

" "That's a Man,

A farmer in Illinois had a neighbor
across the Wabash in Indiana, who was
keeping a pauper on contract at his
house. In the corn hoeing season the
Illinois man sometimes borrowed his
neighbor's pauper to help in the corn
field. Bill Turner had pauper work

in the nelghborhood had ever seen q
pauper, they were very anxious to get a
peep at him. Consequently some twenty

with their shot guns and rifles and went
over to Turner's to see the strange crea-

fence. and came up to where the men
were working. -.
"Bill," said Silas Brown, their spokes-
man, "we've heard that you've got a
pauper working for you, and we'd like
to see it.''
Bill thereupon pointed out the object
of their curiosity. The visitors walked
around the astonished pauper and 81

of view. At last Silas spoke:

serenading Under Ditliculties.

The Cleveland Leader says: A young
Romeo residing on Garden street,
whose voice has just commenced to
change, and sings anywhere along the
scale from falsetto to the home bass,
purchased forty-dollar guitar, few
weeks since, and last week thought he
would serenade his Juliet, who lives on
the same street. Hastily chewing a few
bronchial troches to clear his pipes, he
crept within the shade of a window
and nervously began clawing the in
strumental chords, while he softly tipped
a ballad to his charmer inside. He had
just sung ..........
There's music in the midnight air"
when he became convinced that there
was sole leather soaring about through
the atmosphere also, and before he could
strike the chorus he found the stufhng
kicked out of his gutter, and himself in
the road using his nose as a shovel
plough. The girls father had returned
from downtown at an unusually late
hour; hence the result. The warbler
is now practicing on the concertina and
getting his pants half-soled with sheet.
iron. He says he will make the old
man sick if the bellows don't go back
on him. -Esti 80 ss5sti5t- -
