A Peculiar Trait of Ce,ored Women.

From the Louisville {Ky.l Poet.
Admitting, as We must, that the negroes are
more or less imitators, how are we to explain
the TACT that they never kiss, for do not be-
| neve that anybody ever saw two negroes kiss.
| have attended number of negro weddings.
and l never yet saw the bride kissed, while. on
the other hand, wedding among the whites.
with it's attendant reception without kisses
would be something so strange as to call forth
general comment. l have also heard that In
| dams never kiss. Arc we to suppose then. that
kissing is confined to the white race? | have
always considered kissing as an aesthetic plea
sure. to be thoroughly enjoyed only BY those of
| delicate and refined temperament. You will
also ind that among the lower classes Of white
women kissing is . rarity.
For 30-odd years l have lived in the south.
have had negroes in my house ever since was
| a child. during my whole life have been inter-
mingled with them, and never but once have
seen one negro girl kiss another"
Then you have seen al exception to what
you claim is ruler"
.. Yes: but then it was done in such an-icno-
rant: bungling manner as to be really laugha-
bic"
How so?"
81 will tell you that. and, if ever you have an
occasion to 'dissertate on the art of kissing
you may find place to fit itin. One of them was
very bright mulatto. and stood inside the
gate; the other was dark-shinned girl. appar-
emily visitor just leaving. and stood on the
outside of the gate. AS approached they were
talking. when all of a sudden the light-colored
girl threw her arms around the neck of the
blacker one, with the ferociOusness OF an
angered politician. bumped their heads to
sgether, said 'GOOd-by.' and ran into the house
She probably called it kiss and l have let it
go as an exception to the rule, but in truth. it
was mere plainly an assault; they were entirely
ignorant of the art of kissing. and did not know
how TO give or receive the blisSful boon. This.
however. was hardly fair Case. as one of the
girls was nearer white than black In all INV
life L have never seen two genuine negro
women kiss, and have often heard nv father
remark the same thing. He was over 60 wears
old, and frequently told us it was a tradition
through all his family the negro women never
kiss. A friend of mine, who has been a great
traveller, has visited Africa and Hayti, has re-
marked to me the strange fact taat negro
women never kiss
