possibility swings open to the race.
1t must stand for its rights. Colored
men must contend for truth and for
freedom. Negroes of the North who
can attend schools and who enjoy ad-
vantages must become the helpers and
guides of their brothers IN the South.

every man a chance, and it will see
that its determination results in the
deliverance of all who are in bondage
William III. Evarts was right when he
said we must help the South to edu-

The fact is, our educational work
needs systematizing. The South

SOME years ago, beautiful young
lady died suddenly at Augusta, Pike
Co., Indiana. Two doctors at Peters
burg, in the same County, have for
some time had skeleton on exhibi-
ton in their office. The relatives Of
the deceased young lady recently re-
ceived information that the skeleton
in the doctors office was that Of their
loved one. An examination Of the
grave was made, when it was discov-
cred that the body was missing. The
relatives learned that these doctors
had dragged the body from the grave
and dissected it in the interest of med
ical science. One of the doctors is
dead, and if the other one were not
absent from that town he mi ight also
be dead-at least he would be if the
relatives would do their duty.
If there is anything in this world
that should subject man to the gall
lows, it is the robbing Of graves, and
selling the corpses to lot of half
witted medical students to be hacked
and sawed to pieces.

Mr. Ingalls, responding to Mr. Vest, said he did not
propose this period of this nations history to

executed a traitor the I'd of December 1859,
but the nation took up the flag that he laid down

THERE was a fine exhibition OF
craftsmanship in the lower House OF
Congress one day last week. Repre-

when lively interchange Of pleasant

Weaver remarked that he felt called
upon to denounce the gentleman, Ill

In New York City, on Christmas, a
tenement took fire A policeman in
the street gave the alarm. In the Sec
ond story of the building resided a
mother and her four children. When
the alarm was given, the mother
rushed to the window and leaped out,
seriously iniuring herself, and leaving
the children to the mercy of the
flames. In this extremity, when the
mother utterly lost her reason through
excitement, her little boy coolly took
a cord from the bed. fastened one end
in the room, threw the other end out
of the window, got hold of the cord,
and safely lowered himself to the
ground. Had the mother possessed
the calmness of her little boy, she
would have escaped uuinjured. The
police rescued the smaller children.

WILLIAM CARNEY of New York CT

WILLIAM CARNEY of New York Ci-
ty, received premonition that he
would die at two o'clock on Christmas
morning. He went to bed apparently
healthy, but the hallucination had such
strong hold upon him that as the ap-
pointed hour drew near he began to
grow weaker, and give signs of rapid
ly sinking. But mischievous lawyer
and an officious doctor happening in,
suddenly spoiled the nice little death
scene. The doctor administered an
opiate, the lawyer turned the clock
back six hours, and when the would-be
corpse awoke he was as we'll as ever
though terribly angry that his friends
should interfere with the plans of
Providence.
