Among the souvenirs of Charles

Among the souvenirs OF Charles
Sumner is a fine painting be-
queathed by him to his friend, Mr.
Joshua 3 Smith. o wealthy and
highly esteemed colored citizen OF
Cambridge, Mass. Mr.. Smith was
an escaped slave. The picture
known as 1.-THE Miracle of the
Slave" is Of great. interest and ar
tistically beautiful. By some critics
it was supposed to be the study for
the miracle of st. Mark" the chef
d'9ume OF Tintoretto. in the Acad-
envy of Venice. It differs somewhat
from that original. MI. Sumner
obtained it in 1858, in Paris, from
Miner NJ. Kellogg, the we'll known
painter then living there, and it
formed one of the collections of the
old masters which the artist: had
arranged in a room adjoining his
studio, and which had come into
his possession during q p~rotracted
residence in Italy.

We regret to observe The Repub-

Of Washington, endorsing that mis-
cradle, officiating and retrogressive,
plank in the Alabama Estate Re-
publican" in
which 1t is said:
"The Republican party does not
desire or seek mixed schools or mixed
accommodations for the colored peo-
pie but they askthat in. all of these
the advantages shall be equal"
With such q policy influencing
these Alabama Republicans" they
deserve, as. they vii! receive, defeat.

ter be sacrificed by avowed enemies

OF the Louisiana rice crop, the
Plaquemines Sentinel says:
.4Thus tho drouth, tho gales and

opinion, the yield in this parish below
10000 barrels.

| ~crevasses have done their work of dam.
age in other parishes as well as in TINT
of Plaqnemines.
!. The entire yield Of tho State last
year was 81, 1913 barrels of cleaned rice.
Dur estimate now is that the entire
yield of the State this year will not
exceed $4,000 barrels. The entire
yield of the parish of Plaquemines last

FAST AND FAR.

EdSl AMI TAI1. /
Revolutions always prompt, and
ever active are apt to disturb the
balance Of the coolest heads, when
in times like The present the lenien-
cy Of q central government has CIV
en- some Of it's members occasion
to think that neither its authority
nor its laws may I've regarded when
they run counter to the wishes OF
themselves or friends.
We are reminded OF this in the
present attitude of affairs in this
city.
Plainly, prudence and common
sense should dictate to the Mem
ry and. Penn government" that
whatever to their minds may be
the justice of their cause or the
rightfulnees of their acts; there is
a power exercised, by virtue Of our
laws in the general government that
no individuals of a State may sue
cessfully withstand. The war ct
the States against the Union has
been attempted before. What re-
suited is o matter of history.
Certainly no true citizen OF Lou
isiana desires other than the veal OF
all her people.
There cannot be, even If there
would be, any diversity OF interests
in the common good. The erection
of class parties or a class govern
ment, wherein all the people have
not a common interest, could not
in the very nature of things sue
coed.
It is retrogressive and therefore
impossible. Despite this sentiment
however, and in spite too, Of the ex-
pressed orders of the nations Chief
Executive the present Peoples
government persist in their deter
mination to hold. Calling together
a legislature and .prononncing in
advance for q Constitutional Con-
vention with all tho assurance OF ab-
solute power. This is unfortunate,
and particularly SO, when, if ever,
the natural allies of the Southern
White Leagues; the Northern De-
mocracy, needed wisdom and dis
Greet acts by their Southern associ-
ates. Already, Maine under the
impetus OF the Louisiana troubles
has given a majority against the De-
mocracy of over fifteen thousand
votes. At this rate and with the
present attitude of our White
Leagues they promise to annihilate
the entire Democratic party. Such
a calamity, rs their leaders will see,
would be objectionable. Wisdom
then, and true party sense advocates
neither so fast nor SO far by tho
White League hore. Constitution
al Conventions, deprivation Of civil
rights, and star carsgfor colored citi-
zens are all too soon mooted.
Whistling while in the woods
may be q pleasing pastime, but it is
apt to result d~isastrously to the
hair-bra;ned actor.
