you said in an editorial few weeks ago Gut
Keeping up the Democratic clubs in our Stale
agree with you that it should be done, in order
That our people may become better informed and,
if possible, to instruct the colored men, not only
in politics, but to raise them to higher plane
in morals and intelligence. In order to do this
ii would be well, rs you say, to invite them to
jolm clubs with the whites. Those clubs should
not be altogether political, they should be rather
Farmers or Merchants or Mechanics clubs,
where there could be free interchange of
ideas on all subjects looking to the bcttering of
tie condition Of the most humble citizen
There are in every township men earnest for
the welfare of our State let them go to work
in this matter and success will crown their
efforts.
One important matter should engage their at

elections should be conducted? Now, during

LI2eLIKE IN DEATH.-Baltmorc, January s.
To-day the friends Of Miss Barbara Lieseld,
the daughter Of n wealthy German, who died on
Friday last, placed watch over her. coihn, be-
lieving that she is in trance and will come to
life again. Miss Liefed, who was about Is
years of age, was found dead i'm bed, and her
physician said she died of heart disease. On
Sunday she was to have been buried, but, to the
astonishmept of her friends, her face assumed
lifelike hue, aud the undertaken expressed the
opinion that the body had turned partly on its
side. Consequently the funeraiwas Indefinitely
postponed. and further Developments were
awaited with intense interest. The cheeks as
sImed a rosy hue, and the limbs were neither
cold nor stiff Tie hands were warm and warm
persriration was perceptible. Yesterday the
body rapidly became cold, and several physicians
who examined it pronounced life extinct. The
funeral accordingly, took place in the afternoon,
the coffin being placed in n vault in st. Aphon-
sus Cemetery To-day friends visited the vault
and had the coffin opened. They were greatly
agita,cd when they learned that the body had
again become warm and that the. color had re-
turned to the checks. BY the advice of the
cemetery authorities the remains were not re.
moved The coffin was, however, left open, and
guard placed in the vault. The painful sus-
pensc under which the parents of the girl are
, laborng has completely prostracd them The
! result is looked for with much anxiety.
