30 NEGROES and the Post-O Office.

- ne Negroes and the Post-Chce.
- There was pow-wow Of thc negroes at the
African church the other night on the mat
ter OF the post-ofiice. They had a o"'s.1ous
!. session, as they always have, ana display Gu
IS the ordinary amount of passion and con>''
n,,ence about affairs in which they have very
\ sitne interest, and Of which they know
nothing, They are merely employed by dc.
s;gnipg white oftice-seckers, and are paraded
& IN public meetings for effect at Washington
m account Of the proceedings on the occa'
sion is given in the Stale Journal in which
the disgust OF even that journal for the bar
barisn of such exhibitions crops out in ar
unsnistskablc manner.
LaSDoS BoYp and LEWIS LINDSEY (mnlat
Toes were the chief Actors. LANDoN wanted
i, negro to be put in the Richmond. post
\ oslice; and having made his speech, he de
fed any white man to take the opposite side
i from that he sustained. The whites were
silent, aud, according to the veracious and
I lively chronicIer in the Journul, the "dar'
sies were jubiIant." Thereupon BOYD dared
any dirty negro" to oppose his PROPOSE
ton. This Wanting spirit went Too far,
aaa provoked the champion LINDSEY, who
could not "abominate such cayorting.'
LEWIS bowed his neck and brought his head
but against BoYDs Uranium, and damaged
IL beyoud recovery that night. The journal
chronicler declares that LEWIS tbreshed
BoyD's coats cleaner than ask horsepower
McCcRsIcS reaper could have done it." The
said chronicler further says that BoYD looked
out fer "a hole in which TO creep"
Then followed great deal OF confusion.
Cries Of "Mr. Speaker" "p!nts OF order"
etc., with curses and other demonstrations OF
brutality which the chronicIer says the ma
tive Africans described by DR.. LIVINGSTONE
would have too much self-respect TO have
been guilty OF. 1t must have been very bad
indeed -----------~----~
