LIFT A LITTLE.

Lift little lift little
Neighbor, lend helping hand
TO that heavy laden brother,
Who for weakness scarce can stand.
What to thee, with thy strong muscle,
Seems light and easy load,
Is to him ponderous burden,
Cumbering his pilgrim road.
Lift little Lit little
Effort gives one added strength;
That which staggers him when rising
Thou canst hold at arms full length.
Not his fault that he is feeble,
Not thy praise that thou art strong;
1t is God makes lives to differ,
Some from waiting, some from song.
Lift little lift little!
Many they who need thine aid;
Many lying by the roadside,
'Nealh misiortune's dreary shade;
Pass not by like Priest and Levite,
Needless of thy fellow man;
but with heart and arms extended,
BE the Good Samaritan.

"Dear Sir. A short time since an Italian,
who was the confidential clerk of one of my
much esteemed clents-Signor Suzzini, of
the house of Suzzini, Isola & Co., of London,
Naples and France,-ded suddenly, leaving
in writing the statement which accompanies
this letter. What transpircd at St. Georges
Hall, in November 1866 concerning Il sub
ject of the most absorbing interest to those
present, has been kept pi ofound secret,
under solemn pledge, but owing to the
strange circumstances of the case, and the
almost certain death of the remarkable
stranger, supposed to be an American, whose
temperance has been waited with the most
intense anxiety for years, by those informed
on the subject, Signor Suzzini has considered
himself so far absolved from his obligation
as to convey to some trustworthy barrister in
your city the information herein contained.
All communications received from you will
be kept strictly secret ; but, IN any event, il
you succeed in discovering the bank, impress
upon the managers the Supreme Importance
OF carefully preserving, at all hazards, the
documents committed to their charge.

TO THE FRIENDS or THE coLoREO PEOPLE
or DELAWARE


Tho Delaware Association for tn
Moral improvement and Education Of
the Colored People of the State, present
tn you this appeal, on behalf Of the work
they are engaged in, and Cf the cause they
represent.
No Iuh'lc provision Is maie In N"
State Of d iaware, for the E'ueaiion OF
she C0lored People, except h. tie city of
WILMINGTON, and while pnhlic sentiment
Is hcl0g Increasingly enlisted in favor Of
movements to educate h Il long neg iected
race, We ave unable, ms yet, to meet the
necessary oxpenses Of the work from Ind
vidual ronirihu ions among the peop'e Of
the s ate,qud we must therefore commend
its cause to the consideration Of thosr
who are Interested in tbs good " TX
without, as well as within the limits Of
De'avarn.
We have steadily pursued our labors
| Tor the Tast seven years, ard are not
without encouraging indications Of a
change Of public policy, at no distant
day.
We are gratided IN being ahlc TO on
uour'e that the Boqrd of Pubic Eiacs-
| ton h4s assumed the resus usihi'ity ND
coniuct Of the Howard School, In VII
mington, approving and retaining the
leachers We had selected and employed
there.
TIE Association, after thus trars fcrrlng
| its work In Wlimt gion, has It the pre-
sent time tweutysix schools throughout
the State, in active operation, With n
maximum enrolment Of 1875 pup'la. and
r maximum average attendance of loci
so that we are doing a more extensive
and more efficient work in the State AT
large than at sny time in the past -four
years.
We have, since our last report, three
years ago, collected and expended over
twenty thousand dollars, not including a
! considerable amount expended 10 the re-
plirs OF the buildings. A very large Hrc-
portion of this amount, probably on the
whole, nearly one-haif has been con-
iributed by the col0rtd people themselves,
which shows their own earnestness il
the cause. This makes mn aggregate
collection and expenditure Of over eighty
five thousand dollars siuce tie cUmmCnce
ment Of the Sork.
our excellent aetuary, Ahsie c. Peck
ham is unweared IN her tlirt' TO pro
mote the success Of this WORK, fol
which her experience and ahiliiei
emintutly qualify her. Our great need
now, is the peeuniary aid OF those wh'
desire to promote the education ant
elevation of the colored race.
Our treasury is nearly empty, and on
schools must be closed unless we car
receive this assistance at IN early day
Commencing our cause to ~ Lord, VIII
has so signaily hicsse It hitherto. and q
the favorable cnu.l Iteration If a ! thos
~hom lie mas blessed with the means o.
aid it, we new pr,slnt this brief stale
nent OF our condition and wants.
