Colored Voters and the Republican Party.

Mr.. George I Downing OF Newport q
one Of the ablest colored men ia TIE
country lie was among th" i"uma
Of the Republican party. aud ha- teen
active in support OF it. principle a'.d
candidates. Though a-cillz n OF Eh"dr
Island, he has an extensive acqunin''nr'
in Washington, and for many years hHs
been influential with the RrPu' lcare %
both Houses of Congress aud IN The ex
ecutive departments.
Mr. Downing il member OF the R'-
publican State Committee oi Rhode L.
land. Al the recent election IN ihr'
State be refused TO support the Rel u -
can ticket because the Convention u a.
nominated il gave qualified endorse
ment Of Hayes aud his policy, instead o.
boldly comdemning both, as Mr. Down
ing claimed the Convention should have
done. II advised the colored voters TO
stay away from the polls. The appeal o.
Mr. Downing did not change the result,
because the colored citizens OF that State
are few in number, and the usual hepub'
lican majority is so overwhelming that
nothing can stem il. But his protest was
none the less manly and timely.
There are States where the colora d
vote in so large that appeals OF this sort
from the right Quarter would either bring
the Republicans to their senses and turn
them against their betrayer, or cover
them with infamy and whelm them IN
defeat. All such clear sighted men as
Downing perceive that Hayes is a hhypo
critic as we'll as fraud, and that the long
drawn whine about "the poor colored
men Of the South" which Hayes blub
hered out on the night he admitted that
Tilden was elected, was mere pretencf
and can't.
We warn the Republican leaders to
dissolve all connection with the fraudu-
lent snivelIer in the White House, or the
colored voters will desert them in body

Bearing False Witness.

The commandment "thou shalt not
bear false witness against thy neighbor"
10 violated every day by very many who
are on the whole estimable Christian peo
pie. Not that they fail To keep the let
ter Of the law, for no man ever heard
them breathe a word falsely against their
fellows. But by their words. their man
ner, the whole tone of their lives, they
are bearing false witness against the re
ligi0n of Christ and SO violating the
spirit Of the law. They declare--silently
ID may be, but none the less distinctly
that Christianity is gloomy, that il IL n
foe to happiness Men see them. and
conclude that to follow Christ means con
tinual signing and sorrow. We do not
question the piety of many OF this class.
Some OF them are foremost in good
wof ks; their hearts and their purses are
always open TO calls upon them. Aud
yet from some defect OF mental constI
tuition. or because they have never *
perirncad the Joys Of Christian lIir. they
