which he Ia the President. This seems 20 the
prosaic mind natural enough, and not over
touching. II this colored gentleman had the
money to do It, he should not have neglected to
give some good cheer to the aged crOnes Of his
race. They are Of all people fond OF good meat
and drink, and now that peaches are so cheap IL
could not have cost much to get up the little
banquet. Two or three baskets OF peaches,
sandwiches, sweet cakes, lemonade, ice cream,
and ratluns Of tobacco, could all be piled 1t
an Insignificant exi ense. The colored octogena-
rians would not be over rriticallas to quality and
they would certainly cat with gusto such fare,
and smoke with comfort such tobacco. To
have thought Of so gratifying the stranded Of
his race was credl:ablc to the colored gentle
man. Our man Of sentiment, however, puts II
differently First he talks OF the weather, the
"bouutiful harvest" the return from the
"summors holiday and all the "klndly inilu-
cnces" OF the season. Then he describes tho
"lttlc feast. with lie fruits and flowers" beau
tiful in itself;" how a "well-known lecturer
read poem" and "a public singer gave her
best songs !" speaks Of the "music, laughter,
and hearty good will :" tells how the old folks
sang hymn In their cracked voices" which
brought tears TO his eyes, and how they
set the day down as zone Of the whtest
In their lives" Thus having narrowed our

Fields for Evangelical Effort.

The Rev. Dr. NEWMAN, inspector of con-
sulates and spiritual friend of Boss GRANT,
has been on a trip TO Mortified, Mass. for
the purpose of talking with Mr.. MooDY
about religious revival in Washington.
On Sunday evening last DIR. NEWMAN made
n report of his mission. He said that Mr..
Moody, being asked by him to visit the
capital evangelically, replied rs follows;
"Tam waiting for Divine direction. whittier

and, by the grace 81 Con. did good work, but
that ~ done, and cannot tell " shall have

Brother NEWMAN SAYS that he urged
upon Mr.. MoopY 1.-THE necessities Of
the case"-and, II they included de-
scripton of one hundredth part
OF the wicked Washington things
that he knows or the argument
ought to have moved the great revivalist.
We can readily understand, however, why
Mr.. MOODY is still divided IN the choice OF
field between Washington with GRANT,
Brooklyn with BEEcuER, and New York
with JAY GOULD and his tall tower II IL
no wonder that Mr.. MOODY, having three
places-and such places--opened TO him for
missionary labor, should feel himself in
competent to choose between them.
Just at this Tine says DR.. NEW
MAN, This mind oscilntes between
the three cities" His MUD will continue
to thus oscillate until October, when he
will make "A decision. In the mean time
Brother NEWMAN will do his best to
secure the revivalist for Washington.
ain this great political CENTRE" he says,
where clerks and young men from every
State and Territory in the Union are rep
resented, a religious demonstration is emf
ne lily necessary. l believe Messrs. MOODY
and SANKEY will visit Washington but we
must pave the way for them. A hearty
cooperation among the people is what
they want and must have. We must start
our work, and when we once get under
fun Roadway, l propose that every good
Christian. from now till October l, give AT
least half hour each day to secret prayer
for the outpourings OF tremendous re-
vivnl in Washington"
This Is well, and n tremendous revival
in Washington would be an unqualified
blessing; but 1t Is also time for New York
to be up and doing. Here is one argument
that may touch Mr.. MOODY: Washington
has sent GRANT and his gang to Long
Branch, and been free of them for more
than two purifying months. Brooklyn
has sent BEEoHER TO the White Mountains,
and been rid OF him for about the same
period. Thus Washington and Brooklyn
have had respite; but New York has had
no intermission of JAY GOULD or his stool
pigeon. Think OF it, Mr.. MOODY, and os-
cillate accordingly.

Ohio,s Geghnn.

Mr. JoHS j. GEGHAH of Ohio i certainly

This Is too bad. A harmless man like GEG-
HAN doesn't deserve the treatment he is
receiving. The law in question is all right
The two acts passed by the Republican
Legislatures of Minnesota and Massachu-
sets seem to have been run in the same
mould with his. But if it were wicked
law, he ought not 10 be punished for IT,
GEGHAN is not JUsTINIAN. He is q
tobacconist He does not elaborate codes
He manufactures cigars. He is as n-
nocent of the statute TO which his name
has got stuck rs II sort Of trade mark as
the man in the moon. He did not write Il
line of il. II was the joint product of half
Il dozen Democrats and Republicans.
GEGHAN merely introduced the bill into

dong he was introducing himself to re-

young editor, the stool pigeon of JAY GOULD.
He writes so sweety that our hearts go pit-a-

SO sadly that they droop, and the tears gush from
eyes unused to the tender mood. The editor has
from old times been looked upon as man OF
