A SERIOUS CHARGE.
Communion Wine so Their FIOcks
and OF Being DrunkATds.

We find in the New York Times of the
10th instant, leading Republican journal,
an account Of a meeting of the National
Temperance Society, held In the Free Bap-
list Church in that city on the previous
evening. At this meeting the temperance
needs of freedmen was the topic under
consideration. Among the speakers on the
occasion was one j. n. Stearns, the CORE
spending secretary of the society, who, it is
stated, has been in the South great deal
during the last seven years, and therefore
'knew what he was talking about" This
speaker asserted that the great curse Of the
cOlored population of the South was alco-
hOl, and unfortunately in this, we regret to
say, he is in a great degree correct. But
Mr.. etearns went further, and declared with
emphasis that sin Savannah there were
tloentg-eigh cOlOred churches and each pastor
lgas a confirmed ,0hiSky driaker. In a Florida
church he had known the minister to peddle
out what was left OF the wine after cOmmu-
MON to the congregation at five cents a
glass"
Now, in regard to the number of churches
in Savannah, Mr.. Stearns is greatly in error.
Instead OF twenty-eight churches there are
only sixteen eOlOred churches, Of the fol-
lowing denominations Seven Baptist, one
Congregationalist, one Episcopal, eve
Methodist, one Presbyterian, and
one Catholic. Two of these, the
Episcopal and Catholic Churches, have
white ministers. The ministers of the
other churches are all colored, and we have
never heard such a charge brought against
them. IN fact, so far as our knowledge
extends, they are temperate.men, and several
we have heard earnestly warning their race
against the evils Of intemperance. In regard
to the Florida church we know nothing; but
Mr.. Stearns' statement in regard to the
colored churches of Savannah being so at
variance with the facts, we are inclined to
consider his charge in this case cum gra'lo
sails
This speaker closed his remarks, as given
In the Times, as follows sin the Southern
States, where the colored people were in the
majority, it was impossible to pass temper
snce laws, because the cOlored people voted
directly against them, merely because the
whites voted for them. This could only be
overcome by Northern men going among
them to preach temperance. The National
Temperance Society was distributing Mrs.
Coleman's 'Catechism on Alcohol and DR..
Richardson's Temperance Lessons on Al
cohOl' 10 the South, ard in some places
they we're made textbooks in the schools.
The society offered to double any contribu-
ton for the cause of teaching the Southern
colored people temperance which any
church or individual would make"

who placed the cuffs on him. There was
not g motion made or a word spoken by
Hanley, myself or either OF the six negroes

by me that the prisoner should not be tsken
to DArien; for since the appointment OF the
Hon. Henry B. Tompkins as Judge Of the
Superior Court some years ago, and his Wig

here have found no difficulty In making
arrests and holding prisoners. It is further
stated that after Mr.. Hanley left for the rail
