involve very serious consequences,
not only to ourselves, but even to the
world at large, and that, too, when
the duty may seem one that might
be omitted without hurt to anybody.
Had the widow, spoken Of in the
Scripture, not cast her mite into the
treasusy on the very day she did, but
delayed it a week, how much would
she herself, and the whole Christian
church have lost by the delay! Thus
he has escaped duty, thinking it
expediency and an advantage, may
avoid a substantial gain. It is the
worst of errors to suppose that there
is any other path of safety or of
rightfulness except the plain, straight
forward path of duty. Says Daniel
Webster, "There is no evil which we
cannot face or fly from but the con-
Of duty disregarded." All
who permit discretion to interfere
with the performance of duty fall
into deceitful snare; for duties are
ours; events are Gods" Non-per-
formance Of duty is a vice, not
virtue; and He has so constituted So
ciety that the virtues Of the human
mind cannot be made to serve the
purposes of it's vices. Let members of
Congress, and all the officers of gov
eminent, national, state and munich
pal, ponder these thing and act ac-
cordingly.

The Whitaker Case.

1t makes no difference whether Har-
ward has patriotism and humanity
enough to treat negro with decency,
honor and sense, West Point must do
it. If a negros ears are worthless,
except for the edifcation Of the man
ipulators of Southern scissors, in every
other place under heavens, no excuse
for barbarism can be framed for the
benefit Of chivalric cadets. And the
strangest thing about the whole mat
ter is, not that public opinion is or
will be divided as to whether Whitta-
ker cut his own ears or not, not that a
cursed and malignant anti-negro at
mosphere has by all concessions, been
discovered at a National Institution,
not even that it is very probable that
such outrages have been and can be
committed under the flag-but that it
should be thought necessary to call
for testimony from other colleges and
institutions, as to how a human being
whose skin is black is to be treated at
West Point. 1t reveals an abomina-
BILE public opinion. 1t is certainly
time that we found out that humanity
IS humanity, and right Is the supreme
law of earth as well as of heaven.
The Whitaker case means this to all
intelligent people.
If Whitaker, in supreme and idiot
ic wrong, cut his own ears, he was
correct in supposing that such cow
ardly and inhuman state of things ex-
listed there, that he could make pref
ty good case against it. If he did not
cut his own ears, such brutality exists
there as has incensed the patriotic ele-
ment of nation. At all events and
on either side, it is certain that we
need such a new perception of the
real character of honor and justice,
and such a newidea of right and truth,
as shall not need some Importation to
show us what it is and how it works.

Hints of the Times.

During last week two colored men
were admitted to the jury-box in Bal
timore; the first time such concess-
ion to modern ideas has been made,
since Maryland was State. A SINH
lar hint of the change in public opin-
ion was given last week in the courts
Of Philadelphia, where 5000 damages
were awarded to a colored man and
his wife,, against Mrs. John Drew,
proprietor of the Arch Street Theatre.
Her employees, it appears, not only
sold these people tickets of admission,
but afterward, on payment of an ad-
ditional sum, gave them reserved
seats, they were forcibly elected from
the theatre. This happened four
years ago. That the damages came
at all proves that the world moves.
But it moves slowly. In justice to
Philadelphia, however, we must re-
member that only few years ago
colored people were not permitted to
enter a street car, theatre, lecture
room, or any place of secular amuse-
ment or instruction, unless they went
as beasts of burden, carrying white
child.
Nothing, however, indicates the
complete reversal Of popular prejudice
into fair dealing more than the justice
with which the Whitaker case has
been regarded outside Of the narrow,
hot-headed clique at West Point.
There was no dispo ition to hold
Whitaker guilty simply because Of
his color, and his guilt or innocence
will not alter one whit the severe
public disapproval Of the manner in
which colored cadets are treated in
the National Academy. Even if this
colored cadet turn out to
be coward and trickster, the public
will find no excuse in that fact for
the persistently brutal conduct OF his
associates toward men Of his race.
We are gaining common sense with
years. "Nigger" and ''red devil are
no longer arguments that cover all
sides Of the question. Before this
century closes, it is certain that each
man, whether black, red or yellow,
will have his every legal and political
chance, equal to the white. As for
social equality, that is a matter which
cannot be legislated. Every man has
a right to his preferences on that
score. Some white men may object
to associate with man whose skin is
tinged with burnt umber, just as some
black men may have a prejudice
against tricky politicians, bribe-
takers, or other men whose cuticles
are white, the stain having only
blackened their minds and morals.

Duty.

An unimpeachable fidelity to duty
is the truest expediency. He who is
false to present duty breaks an i'm
portant thread in the loom Of events
of his life, and may find the flaw, to
his sorrow, when he may have forgot
ten its cause. Performance of duty
consists in carrying on, with a due
sense of obligation, the private or
public affairs Of the day which lies
before US; but performance of duty
should not be extorted from US by
the domineering pressure Of circum-
stances, as the waters were forced out
of the rock when Moses smate it with
his rod. Delay to perform duty may

Just before the circus opened yes
terday afternoon a woman, accompa-
MED by her son, boy about Is years
of age, appeared on the grounds and
was the first at the ticket wagon.
When the window was opened the
mother said to the ticket seller:
IF you will be so kind as to let
poor widow woman's Johnny into the
circus he will carry water to the ele-
phant."
"Stand back, madam, stand backw
he cried as he took the half dollars
over her head.
She took her boy by the hand and
marched to the entrance OF the big
tent, explaining to the man at the
door:
my Johnny is going to carry hay
to the camels."
"You and your Johnny carry your
selves right out of this!" was the very
emphatic reply.
Couldn't we both go in for ten
cents if we sat on the grounds"
mo, ma'am! Stand back. now;
you are in the way!'
They fell back for consultation.
The boy had tears in his eyes, and the
mother looked determined.
Don't cry, Johnny dear-your
mother loves you and will get you in" }"
she consolingly remarked, as she led
him again to the ticket wagon.
Crowding and pushing her way in, she
called out:
"This boys father was a preacher,
and you ought to let him in free"
''Stand back, madam, stand backr'
was the answer she got.
Cant you let us in for ten cents?"

She drew the boy out of the crowd
and took a walk around the tent.

was raised little, and as they halted

The Doctrine of Works,

We cannot dwell too strongly on
the rewards of Christian activity. Our
doctrine of justification by faith may
have somewhat obscured the other
truth, that we are rewarded according
to our works. 1t is faith that gives
entrance into heaven; it is works alone
that can give abundant entrance. 1t
is by grace that we are saved; but it is
only according to patient well-doing
that we are rewarded. Whoever will,
may take the water of life freely, but
the crown of life can only be gained
by the most intense and resolute and
persevering toll. Have you noticed
that in almost every allusion to the
rewards of the judgment-day, our
works are spoken of as the ground of
our commentator or condemnation ?
Behold | come quickly, aud my re-
ward is with me, to give to every man
according as his work shall be-" No
reference to our faith in the bestowal
of the rewards of glory. If you have
received the word of life into your
heart, you are regenerated and saved.
But if you want wages, you are told
''he that reapeth receiveth wages. =
