To the Editor of the National Republican:
SIR: You were pleased to allow Mr.. Lewis to
put us in false position by his letter yesterday,
and now trust you will have the goodness to al
low US to set ourselves right through the Same
source. We have Lotus" society, named and
In character after the white Lotus society In New
York. We have as much rights TO have an arfs-
tocracy ns the white people. Mr.. Lewis and
great many Of the cOlored people Of Washington
are displeased with us because we will not allow
them to Join IL. 1t Is not because they are not as
good as we are, but they are not of the same ge-
NAL literary taste. We recite poetry, Shaks-
peare, and critIcise pictures and art. We have
DIR. Cromwell, great colored man Of our own
race for our president. The civil rights bill does
not mean that we should all be equals In this
way, and It was this that caused the trouble in
regard to Summers monument. We had as well
stand by 1t, that do not intend to allow the
common class-messengers, CLERKS. and school
teachers-to Join, unless they have literary taste
of q congenlal character and unless they are high
toned and have comprehension. Professor Wilson
and Mr.. Matthews will hold their heads up, and
not be bothered about Mr.. Lewis nor any one else,
who are day laborers, but Will continue as he

was that Of visiting different houses and repre-

her plausible tale she would obtain money for
their relief To others she would state that her
mother was dead and had lefs with her two little
sisters uneared for; that the Sisters OF CHARITY had
consented to take them in and care for than. and
that she desired to obtain suiicisns moaey to
bring them from Frederick, Nd, and place them
In the asylum In this city. A lady residing Ia

the young girl On her way to police hsadquar

worse and the Loss rapidly Increasing Wstck
was set, and finally the thefkof the goods pointed
uldeniably to this woman.
A warrant was procured and her residences
searched, where there was found lace shawls sir
dresses, new quilts. pantsloons, So. which weri
recognized as belonging to the person en-
ployin2 her, and who does not desire her namI
exposed on account of the responsibility Of no:
family, and feels as much regret in the discovers
as they do In her exposure. She Is q widow lady
Of middle age, and hitherto has borne an excel
lent reputation. What actuated her In making
these populations is unaccountable to those al
home. Hitherto she had o most enviable reputA
ton, free from the slightest faint Of suspicion. II
is presumed that the case viii be compromised
as the party robbed is willing, now that the prop,
erty is recovered, to make concessions to shield
the perpetrator from exposure, and shield her
family from the disgrace that would follow.

At this house, Mr.. Charles Howard, with an
able and effective company, will present the
thrilling drama of "Uncle Toms Cabin" tonight.
In the days that past the faithful representa-
ton of this wonderful creation from life by, Mrs
Harriet Beecher Stowe, exerted powerful intiu-
ence upon the public mind toward the abolition
of slavery, by awakening and developing that
moral sentiment which eliminated in the freedom
clothed with all the rights Of citizenship.
II is well that the rising generation should see
struggles and sacrifices which were made BY the
generation now fast passing away to remove from
the shoulders of their children this apple Of dis
years have wrought in the domestic institutions
Of large section OF our country are necessarily
made to pass wildly 10 review during the repre-

WESTMINSTER REVIEW for April Kervsnd &
Towers, Washington, D. O. We arc tempted to
say something ugly concerning publishers who
put their books upon the market with the leaves
uncut. When II is considered that every publish
ing house has cutting machine and that the
''stock" trimmed OF the books will pay for thu
expense It is scarcely less than an insult to the
public to neglect the cutting. Ten minutes Of the
time Of some person is taxed for this severing
process by hand An edition Of hundred thou
sand would require q million minutes Of time, or
nearly seven hundred days Of the valuable time
of intelligent readers. Let this tax be repudt-
ated. Let Us all decline to notice, read or pur-
chase books the leaves Of which are uncut by tho
publishers. We have no time to cut the leaves
OF grand old ''Westminster'' to see what its con-
tents are. No doubt they are superior or they
would not be so carefully guarded.

THE GIRLS REFORM SCHOOL.


The Social Education Society, Of New York
city, have written to the Hon. James II. Platt, OF
Virginia, who Introduced the bill appropriatinZ
the conscience fund to the construction Of build
ings for girls reform school, as follows:
Words cannot express our hearty Endorsement
Of your efforts to secure the young girls who
gather in Washington from the temptation which
esds to degradation and death, nor our sympa-
thy with Mrs Speneer's endeagor to obtain help
from the Government in this most womanly and
humane ente rprise. She has painted, with such
a master hand in her argumsnt before your COM
mIttee the lurd pictures of the lives Of these out
casts and has so plainly proven the duty Of the
Government TO these Its most unfortunate wards,
that no logic of ours can add possible weight to
her plea. But still as women, who ourselves have
been and laboring for the uplifting Of our IN
fortunate sisters, We add our voice TO hers, be-
seeching you TO carry out your Just and generous
intention Of securing for the Girls Reform School
the conscience fund.
HANNAH La SHEPHERD,
'Cor. Sec. Social Science Association"
The Soross also writes to the committee say
ing: ave desire to thank you for the introduce
ton Of this BILL not only In behalf Of unfortu-
nate sisters, but Of our equally unfortunate
brothers. This reform school proposes to put tho
practical weapon Of selEdefence-au honorable
trade-In the hands OF young girls, thCs protect
ing the weak and immoral OF the other sex from
the temptation Of every opportunity to prey upon
the igno rart and helpless"
