bed talking to Miss Nancy and Seman-
tina. His cheeks were little flushed
with fever and the excitement Of tell
ing his story theirs were wet with
tears. Ralph" whispered Miss
Nancy, as she drew him into the

than any sermon ever heard to see

Ralph was delighted, SO delighted
that he came near kissing good Miss
Nancy Sawyer, whose plain face was
glorified by her generosity.
But he did not go to the poor-house
immediately. He waited until he saw

GIVE us A SONG.
A Crimean Incident.

"Give us a song" the soldiers cried,
The outer trenches guarding,
When the heated gums of the camps allied
Grew weary of fbombarding.
The dark Redan in silent scoff
Lay, grim and threatening under;
And the tawny mound OF the Malakof
No longer belched its thunder.
There was pause. The guardsman said,
We storm the fort to morrow;
Sing while we may, another day
Will bring enough OF sorrow"
They lay along the battery's side.
Below the smoking cannon
Brave hearts from Seven and from Clyde,
And from the banks of Shannon.
They sang of love and not Of fame;
Forgot was Britain's glory,
Each heart recalled different name.
But all sang "Annie Laurie
Voice after voice caught up the song,
Until the tender passion
Rose like an anthem, rich and strong
Their battle-eve confession.
Dear girl, her name he dared not speak,
Yet, as the song grew louder,
Something upon the soldiers cheek
Washed of the stains Of powder.
Beyond the darkening ocean burned
The bloody sunsets embers;
While the Crimean valleys learned
How English love remembers.
And once again q fire of hell
Rained on the Russian quarters;
With scream of shot and burst Of shell,
And believing of the mortars.
And Irish Nora's eyes are dim
For singer. dumb and CORY;
And English Mary mourns for him
Who sang of "Annie Laurie
Oh, soldiers! to your honored rest,
Your truth and valor bearing
The bravest are the tenderest-
The loving are the daring.

A colored minister, the Rev. Mr..
Butler, made speech in the Colored
Peoples Convention, lately held At
Louisville, KY, in which he s'turned
the tables" upon the mean whites,
who to every appeal for justice to
the negro respond only with vulgar
outcries against "social equality"
etc. This is what he said:
"We don't ask for social equality.
/ never saw that white woman yet
that looked SO well, in my eyes, . .
good brown colorcd woman. And,
If it wasn't SO, we don't need their
social equality, because our friends,
the white folks, have kindly managed
it so that We have every shade to
choose from, from the deepest jet
black to the purest white. Lsugh-
ter. And, as there are no ladies'
present, allow me to say that tho
practice Of social equality has not
been on our side, but on the part Of
the whites, who, in their dark and
devious ways, were not always able,
let us charitably suppose, to tell
black from white. This social equal
ity has mot been sought by us, but
they have run after Us; and, though
we are now emancipated and free,
they haven't stopped.
A Voice-sWell stop it when We
get the testimony
Yes, that's SO. They better not
come my way, even now. We say
to them, let us alone; we don't want
any mixture. If they had let me
alone, l might have known what
color ! was; but Is it is, my greatest
trouble is to keep my hair Just right.
Don't talk about social equality. If
l was q white man in Kentucky I
would hide my head; wouldn't mem
tion it with so many evidences stand
ing around of my social equality. We
don't want any more Of il. Keep O
your side Of the line, and wen kesp
on our side; and in tie course Of tine
we'll get back where God left u.s.
