A TALK FOR THE BLACK MAN.

will not assist in their capture, but
absolutely do all they can to har-
Dor negroes when being pursued
by the officers of the law. This is
all wrong. We know that the idea
is common among the black people
that this is a sort of persecution,
and that it is a duty to stand by
those of their own race. If they
were to look at this thing in its
true light, they would see that in
jury is done to society and that
they themselves, in the long run,
have to bear the odinm Of being
considered thieves, in common with
those they harbor. In fact, man
who protects and shields a thief or
murderer, is no better than the
thief himself. It is the duty of all
good citizens to see the laws en-
forced, and no man, white or black,
who violates the laws, should be
allowed to go unpublished. 1t is
by observing the laws and seeing
that their fellow-men observe them
that progress in civilization has
been made, and the black man who
refuses to uphold the laws passes
sentence on himself, and he and
his children after him may expect
to be prosecuted" just as all evil
doors, in the past and in the future,
have been and will be prosecuted"
for their rascality.
"Time and tide wait for no man."
is an old adage, often used to spur
the tardy ones to action, and we
quote it now for the benefit of our
colored friends, and would point
them to the only chance they have
10 benefit themselves or their race,
and that is, by upholding the laws
and securing an education. For
some of you it is impossible now
to learn; but you can set an exam
pie for the children, and see that
they have the schooling that you
SO much need. DO right, that is
what we mean. You know enough
for that, and that is as much as
some white men know, and more
than many of them do. II you
fail IN your duty to the growing
race, then you may expect them to
suffer the consequences. Don't in
dulge in hatred to the white race,
some of you may have too
good cause to do so, and don't do |
all You can to teach your children
to keep it up after you.
One of the most ruinous things |
to the negro since his freedom has
been mixing up i'll politics. They |
everything for this.
And what was it all for? Why. |
TO keep the Democrats out of
power. Well, the Democrats are
IN power now, aad have been for
over year, what difference has it
made to your Are yon any less
rec? What do you think of the
hieving liars that used to make
ION believe that you would be put
Jack into slavery? We venture to
ny that there are not five colored
nen in Grant parish who know the
Inference between Democrat and
Republican, and we put it to you
s sensible men, is it not ridiculous
or man to make IL great ado over
matter that don't affect him in
he least? Now, We don't say for
on to stand back and have moth
ng to do with elections, for it is a
uty as well as privilege for each
nd every man to cast a vote; but
re do say, use common sense in
asting your vote. If you wish to {
ave honest officers, then vote for
len you know to be honest. You
re free, and your children will be
zee forever after yon, aud it is
ign time yon were beginning to

Washington Letter.
WASHINGTON, D. c., July ls, 20.

Mrs. jerks closes her testimony
To visit Washington to-day on,
would never dream of its beins
the POLITICAL center of the grea
Republic Of America. Nothing
speaks of it save the Capitol'l
magnificent dome and the Treas
ury's massive Pillars. Such build
ings, Of course, are TO be found no.
where else in this broad land
But few days since-two oi
three weeks are but few days
the whole sity was alive with inter.
est and excitement concerning
purely political questions at that
time under confederation. Then
everything seemed to come to an
end. Then the hot weather came
on with a fierceness as if, long pent
up, 1T had burst forth and meant
to make up at once for lost time.
Then the annual exodus begun,
and now We are well upon our fan
ming, painting, istless, humdruin
way of our usual Washington sum
mer. Happy are they who leave
us behind. Happy are they who
can betake themselves to cooler
Chimes, to seashores, to mountains,
to New England farm houses. And
oh! unhappy, luckless many who
must stay IN town and drag along
mt their work, and eat, drink, ex-
lst, perspire through the next
three months.
1t is, too hot now for pleasuring
of any kind save by moonlight, or,
at least, IN the evening, and every
night excursions on the Patomac
are IN order. The usual time OF
starting down the river is from
8 to z p. m. and the return is not
before l or 2 the next morning.
A stop about twenty FIVE or thirty
miles down is sufficient, a dance
and supper INDUCED in aud the
homeward sail most thoroughly
enjoyed. In fact the night time
alone is hardly endurable and we
look all the time for that to be-
come hot and dry and still. When
the heat gets so intense that there
Is not air enough for days and |
days to stir poplar leaf, We only
wonder we can exist at all. We
have heard of but one case of SIM |
stroke as yet.
The first family in the land is
the last one to leave city quarters. |
The White House has only been
vacated for three days. On Tues
DAY Mrs. Hayes superintendent the
trunk packing and selected furni-
ture for the cottage at soldiers
home where the presidents family
spent last summer and intend to
this. The cottage floors are COW
cred with mating and the furni-
ture used is mostly willow and
cane. Hammocks depend from
the piazza roof, rustic chairs are
scattered about the grounds un-
der the trees, and there is appa-
rentiy no reason why one might not
be most comfortable there during
the hot season. Fannie and Scott
hayes, aged respectively 10 and
Z years, have ponies of their own
which they have been learning to
1de the past year. Finer drives
cannot be imagined than those in
he soldiers home grounds, shady,
smooth and winding; and there,
10 doubt, these two little ones of
nigh degree "will disport them-l
