Lecture on the SOutb.

A lecture was delivered at fremont Temple
last evening, by Rev. j. Sella Martin who
gave some OF the results of his observations
during his recent stay at the South. Amono
the gentlemen on the platform, were Ex-Gov.
ernor Clafiin, Hon. Harvey Jewell, VIM. Llovd
Garrison, Hon. E. S. Tobey, R. X. Potter
and others.
Hon. Thomas Russell presided. and the
meeting was opened with prayer by Rev. DR.
Kirk, who, being now blind, was led forward
to the desk. Judge Russell, after few re-.
marks referring to the agitations of the slavery
question in this city, before the war, wherein
Mr.. Martin figured, introduced that gentle.
man to the audience.
The lecturer was received with applause
of which he provoked frequent repetitions
during his extempOraneous address, He began
with reference to his mission to England
during the war, which was for the purpose Of
enlightening the minds of the English people
upon the actual state of the public mind at the
North respecting slavery. That feeling had
not at that time npened into definite policy,
After stating the first difficulties that met him
when he landed in smoky city of three mil.
lions Of people, where he did not know a
soul, he attributed the success which he finally
had to the influence indirectly of the late
Governor Andrew, and Rev. DR.. Kirk, to
each Of whom he paid warm tributes.
Since his return from the South he had OBJ
served with some chagrin the tone of certain
newspapers and other organs of public opin-
ion respecting the doings of the colored peo-
pie of the South, more particularly respecting

EnameIing the Face and the Re.
suit.

"A lady in Louisville paid seventy-five dol
lars, we are told, for having her face enameled
for the ball given at the Gait House to the
Grand Duke Alexis. The enamel was war
ranted to last three days and so it did. The
lady was taken i'll upon her return home from
the ball, her face became greatly swollen, the
most acute pain succeeded and it was only
by the employment of the best medical skill
that her life was saved. This statement we
have from an undoubted source.
But the case of this lady is not so bad as
that of another Louisville lady who became
enamored of the odious fashion of enameling
the face. She visited another city far to the
eastward some five months ago for the sole
purpose of having her face enameled accord
ing to the latest Partisan mode. She had
heard that noted Partisan was engaged in
the enameling business at the city in oues-
ton, and to him she went upon her arrival.
For the sum of five hundred dollars he agreed
to enamel her face so scientifically that the
enamel would remain unchanged for three
years, and year or two longer if extra care
was taken in washing the face according to his
prescribed method. The devOtee of fashion
concluded the bargain and paid three hundred
dollars OF the sum named, the balance to be
paid in yearly instalments, divided into three
years. The lady received the enamel and
returned to her home in this city. Since her
return she has disappeared from society.
There was so much poison in the enamel that
its effects were almost Immediately developed
in the almost total paralysis of the facial
nerves, and what was once truly beautiful
face is to-day a distorted, dsfgured, and ul-
cerous one. The lady's beauty has disap-
peared forever, and if her physicians succeed
in saving her life they will have accomplished
more than they had a right to hope for Her
eyes are terribly infiamed and disfigured, and
the sight of them fast failing. -LomsuiHe

Mr.. Thomas Mast.

The artist, like the singer, has the oppor-
tunty of gaining almost instant recognition
of his genius, when that genius is Of high
and rare order. People are brought face to
face with him, and soon form an admiring
audience round him if he is worthy of their
attention. In this way Mr.. Mast has achieved
reputation which many men OF twice his
age might well envy, and which will probably
outlast the regulations of most men who pro-
fess to form and direct public opinion. His
drawings are stuck upon the walls of the poor
est dwellings, and stored away in the port
folios of the wealthiest connoisseurs. A man
who can appeal powerfully to millions of
people, with few strokes of the pencil, must
be admitted to be a great power in the land.
No writer can possibly possess a tenth part
of the influence which Mr.. Mast exercises.
He addresses the learned and the unlearned
alike. Many people cannot read "leading
articles, others do not choose to read them.
others do not understand them when they
have read them. But you cannot help seeing
Mr.. Nast's pictures, and when you have seen
them you cannot fail to understand them
When he caricatures politician, the name of
that politician ever afterwards recalls the
countenance of which Mast has made him a
present.. An artist of this stamp-and such
artists Pe very rare indeed-does more to
affect public opinion than score of writers. =

What Shall--We Eat?

This is an important question in these
times of high prices. DR.. Hall, in late num-
Der OF his Journal Of HeaHh-a good authority,
by the way-says the cheapest articles OF
food at present prices are bread Especially
corn meal, butter, molasses, beans, and rice.
He shows that rs cents worth of -four, at s
cents per pound, contains as much nourish-
ment as 1926 worth of roast beef at rs cents
per pound; and that pint of white beans,
costing seven cents, has the same amount of
nutriment as 81 pounds of beef at 25 cents
per pound, or, in other words, that the roast
beef is twelve times as expensive as the BEANS
Furthermore, pound of Indian meal will go
as far as pound of fine flour, costing nearly
twice as much
Here are some of the common articles of
food, showing the amount of nutriment con-
tanned, and the time required for digestion:

You will also please to take notice that
before we sell, We must carry our barrels of
salt to all points where we trade, from the
Atlantic coast to the Mississippi river, and
Duluth, on Lake Superior. This cost us, on
an average, about thirty cents more, making
the cost GIGS per barrel, or Miry-three cents
per bmsAel before zoe sell. Now if, as you say,
we sell at forty cents per bushel, we have
only seven cents left for interest on capital,
and that would be just about fair interest.
But we assure you again that our profit is
materially below that figure. We believe
that our product is relatively the cheapest
article of commerce, and that our profit is
less than that Of any other legitimate bust
ness which you can name.
o. You accuse Of of having sold salt in
Canada very cheap in the year 1869. With
out looking at dates and figures, we are viii
ling to confess the general truth of the alle-

veloping interest at Goderich, on Lake HUI
ron but we got speedily worsted in the con-
test, and were wholly driven from the Queens
dominions. Our salt no longer goes to
Canada, and Goderich is now the lowering
cloud on our horizon, charged with the ele-
ments of swift destruction to American capital
and labor, if you repeal or even appreciably
reduce the duty on foreign salt.
Z. Your next statement is the somewhat
remarkable one that the salt duty increases
| importation and diminishes the domestic pro-
duction of salt! If this be so, then all the
theories of political economy must be false
We will only ask you to reconcile your
thesis with the following facts In 1860, and
before that, when foreign salt was duty free,
except about 1t cents per bushel, the impor-
tation was IA, 100000 of bushels and the do
mestic production less than II 100000. I'm
der the present tariff, which is about ten
cents per bushel, the importation has fallen
to 1900, 900, and the domestic production
has risen to 20,OOo,OoO. When you have ex-
planned these figures consistently with your
statement, we will show you further that we
now sell millions of bushels annually in close
and Improbable competition with foreign
salt, where we could not sell pound under
lower duty. You suggest as a reason for
your extraordinary theory on this subject,
that under the duty on salt, domestic produc-
ton becomes a monopoly, which restricts the
manufacture, in order to obtain high prices.
But can you seriously mean this in the face
of the fact that 100000 bushels are i'm
ported every year? We beg, moreover, to
assure you that of all articles of commerce
salt is the most abundant. Our own COM
pany has to-day 8, 1000, 900 of bushels unsold,
waiting for market at all points, some ofwhich
are two thousand miles distant from each
other. If you will send US purchasers you
will place us under great obligations.
In conclusion, we do not object to any fair
discussion of the principles on which duties
are imposed on foreign salt and on other for
eign commodities. But we fail to understand
the reason for the mveteracy with which this
warfare is carried on against only one of the
interests involved in such a discussion. 1t
seems to us that the Salt Company of Onon-
daga in particular is receiving a great deal
more attention than it deserves, and we con-
TESS to some Impotence at being called upon
so often to answer statements and arguments
so extraordinary as those we have just no
ticed. We have answered them so often and
so fully that even the New York World is
ashamed any longer to publish them. But
when we have answered them in one quarter
they spring up in another. We do not claim
the distinguished consideration which we are
receiving. We are private citizens engaged
in legitimate and honorable business, pro-
ducing as cheaply as we can and selling for
what we can reasonably get. We certainly
are no better than other people, and we ven
ture to hope that we are not materially
worse. THE SALT Co. OF ONoNDAGA.

Yet full of love, and faith, and joy;
With all mothers earnest heart and soul
She labored for her darling boy.

To hear him speak in tones of love;
Yet God doth know. His holy will be done.

Protect and shield from every harm.
o thou, the widow and the orphan, God

On Jesus breast her head reposed;
She was the daughter of the heavenly King /;

Yet her immortal spirit ever lives,

According to the above tables, cucumbers
are of very little value, and apples, cabbage,
turnips, and even potatoes, at present prices,
are expensive eating. Some vegetables and
fruits should, however, enter into the family
consumption, even if purchased for sanitary
reasons. Among those which contain the
most saccharine matter, sweet potatoes, pars-
nips, beets, and carrots are the most nourish-
ing. Roast pork, besides being an expensive
dish, requires too lengthy drain upon the
forces of the stomach to be a healthy article
of diet

Mr.. r. H. Bayly, a Virginian by birth.
and lately dead in New Orleans, left $40, 900
to endow professorship in the Washing
ton and Robert E. Lee College," Lexington,
Virginia. So Mr.. Miller, of Lynchburg, Vir-
ginia, left 81 zoo, 900, it will be remembered.
for the education of the poor children of AL
bemarle, and like sum to the University of
Virginia. Upon this, the New Orleans Times
takes occasion to free its mind as follows !:
"These legacies show how unjust and I'M
founded is the aspersion upon the Southern
people of indifference to education" Per-
haps so; but the South of to-day, we are
happy to believe, is not the South of yester-
day. When we found so prominent South
ern man as Henry A. Wise ridiculing the
common school system Of the North, and
claiming that it was fruitful only of mischief
to the State, we naturally supposed that he
was not speaking merely his own opinion,
but that of his class. The children of most
educated in Northern colleges or at home by
Northern teachers; but the poor whites were.
it cannot be denied, left in shamefully dense
ignorance, while it is needless to speak of the
brutal policy which kept the blacks from the
sources of the commOnest knowledge. But
these things it gives us no pleasure to remem-
Der. Rather, we observe with satisfaction
the coming Of brighter day. There is no
safety, no peace, no prosperity for the South
without the education equally of all classes.
The capital of these regenerated States here
after is to be real-the days of two-lecged
unreal estate have gone by. The North has
everything to gain from Southern progress
and much to lose from Southern decadence.
and in such position of affairs what room is
there for childish jealousy?-N. Y. Tribune.

The COIOred Voters.

The following letter from colorcd clergy
man of Brooklyn, having reference to the
proper course for colOred people to pursue in
respect to the next Presidential election, is
printed in the Union of that city
Will colored men vote right in the coming
Presidential election? VIII they vote with
and for their personal friends or, proving
traitors to sound principles, and being stu
pidly blind to their own interests, will they
join the enemy's camp? Years ago, when L
lived in the State of Maine, | cast my first
vote for James G. Bimey, as the candidate
of the Liberty party. l was frequently asked,
why vote for a party so small and powerless,
when it has no prospect of success? Why do
you people leave the Wing party, and go with
this party, when by so doing you throw away
your votes, and indirectly help into power the
very party that is crushing you, and using its
whole strength to continue and extend slavery:
My reply was that the Liberty party was
based on righteous principle. 1t said that
slavery must die, and that it would make no
compromise with it. The principle, thank
God, found its way at length into the heart
OF the Republican party, which came into
being to resist the encroachments of slavery :;
and we all know what it has done and how it
has succeeded. Under its power slavery has
gone out OF existence as though it had never
Deen anu many eX-SlayeS are now filling
high and important positions in society. l
believe that colored men will yet work out
problem that will greatly surprise and even
astonish the nation. In regard to the Re-
publican party, let me say that no other party
in this country has ever done for the colored
man what it has done, and none ever had a
stronger claim upon his support. No Presi-
dent has ever done for the colOred people
what General Grant has done. The question
then is this Shall colored men vote for such
party and such a President, or shall they
join the ranks of the enemy? Are they not
under obligations to the party which has so
boldly battled for their rights amid the storms
of ridicule and Opposition?
