the JubiIee Singers, who will minister to
the qualification of our citizens next Friday,
at School Hall, when we bespeaK a crowded
house:
at has been my delightful privilege sew
eral times TO hear the New Orleans Univer-
sity Singers, and 10 have them sing in my
church. Their rendition OF all their pieces,
in that impressive style peculiar to the col
ored people Of the South, is, to say the least,
marvellous. Their work is a noble one, and
should receive the liberal encouragement of
generous christian public. The elevation
Of a long enslaved race, and the rearing Of
houses and institutions Of learning in their
interest is a great work; il is a christian
w0rk-this is the work in which they are
engaged. Very Respectfully,

TIE LADY BRYAN Sailing The Comstock
papers are still in an unhappy frame of mind
over the sailing of the Lady Bryan mine. The
Chr",.iele, under the head of Two Kinds Of
Robbers" has the following
For the bold burglar who enters your house
in the night with the full knowledge that he
is risking his life and Drawing the penitentiary,
you can feel some sort of respect, even though
you suffer from this criminal courage
For the man who poiuts pistol at your
head on the highway and empties your peck
cts you can feel the same sort of respect as
you would give the burglar. Both you would
shoot like dangerous dogs, if you could, yet
their daring saves them from your contempt.
There can be no such respect felt for the
sconndrel who, with oily words and under the
pretense of lending you helping hand, lures
You into a speculative trap which he has set
for you.
Between man of this kind and the burglar
and high wayuan no comparison can be drawn
that will not rebound to the credit of the
bold thief who does his criminal work openly
and at the risk of life and liberty. The salter
of mine coins his booty from the confidence
Of friends, the misery of hundreds of families
and the tears of women. His stealings are
far greater than those of the burglar and high
wayman, and he takes risk of legal punish
ment. The wealth which he steels buys him
the outward respect of hvpocrites and natural
t"adles but 1t brings upon him tne scorn and
contempt of all honest men.
