The BANNER regrets this, as it
confident that could he have
hescd theEl, he would have
lone home with a high appre-
eiation of the energy and enter
prise OF our citizens in educa-
tional matters; it would have
softened his heart towards these
little ones TO have noted their
eagerness for an education, and
he would, for once. have re-
GREETED that he ever vetoed a
bill denying them the advan-
tages of state aid in acquiring
an education.

EMANCIPTION DAY.

The 10Th of juno with the
colorcd people Of Texas is a
memorable day, its history is
well known, and by them it is
regarded with moro generation
than is the 9TH of July by the
average American citizen; or
St. Patricks day by the Irish
man. Saturday was the 10Th
and the day had been looked
forward to for some time by the
holiday-loving class Of the col
ored people as an epoch in the
year, an oasis 50 to speak. Gil
gantic posters had been printed
and circulated and posted all
over the county announcing
that emancipation day would
be duly celebrated at Hutchin-
sons grove in the city of Bren-
ham. At daylight the firing of
anvils announced to both black
and white that emancipation
day was here. The carly riser
could discover but few persons
on the streets; the town presen-
ted its usual appearance until
about 7 o'clock when an early
load" Of watermclons arrived
the watermelon seller always
has an eye to business. About
S o'clock the BRENNAN colored
brass bard appeared on the
streets and played Il num-
Der of pieces Of music in a
manner that was highly
credible, their performance
being fully aS good as that of
the average trained brass bands
in the larger cities. About 5
o'clock the grand marshals of
the day mounted and wrsathed
in gorgeous silk sashes of em-
erald and crimson gathered to-
gcther the assembled hosts,
consisting of IN assortment of
ordinary vehicles, and colorcd
people mounted and on foot,
and headed by the band march
ed 10 the grove, reaching there
about IL o'clock. 1t had been
anticipated that Il very large
crowd would be in town, but
two opposition celebrations
drew off a good many.
At THE GROUNDS.
~ speakers stand was erected
in the grove and a large num-
Der Of refreshment stands were
on the grounds. The principal
business of the day seems to
have been public speaking
The opening exercises were an
Grafton by J. M. Parker, colored,
crater of the day, followed by
R. J. Moore, colored, Hon. J. D.
McAdoo, Allen Wilder, colored,
Hon. D. c, Giddings, Hon Seth
Shepard, Ed. Lockett, S. A.
Hackworth and J. C. Cain, col
ored, all of whom made talks.
suited to the occasion and omit
ting all reference to politics. 1t
was agreed on all hands that
Hon. Seth Shepard made the
speech of the day. He made a
very favorable impression upon
the colored people and one they
will not soon forget. The other
speakers were attentively lis
tened to and their remarks
were generally appreciated. 1t
is estimated that about one
thousand persons were on the
grounds. Beyond a few trifiing
skirmishes mentioned elsewhere
everything was orderly. At
night the festivities wound up
with a grand dance.
OTHER CELEBRATIONS.
Thee was another grand eel
ebration at Harris springs in
the Morgan settlement 6 miles
northeast Of town, and also one
