Colored Journal,

now, as heretofore, 1t demands equal rights
and fair play for all men in the race Of
life. 1t bases its demands on the plea Of
justice and appeals to the fair Judgment
reason and conscience of good people, to
redress wrongs and prejudices which inno-
cent brethren are made to suffer because of
race connections. Giving to the colored
citizen all his civil and political rights is
no favor. placing him under obligations,
but simple act of justice, restoring to
him that which is his by his BIRTHRIGHr Al
A MAN. The GAZETTE is too fair not to
admit the black mans inferiority in as-
qaired knowledge, culture, and refinement
of the world, but it is bold enough to hold
to the truth that, naturally, he is the peer of
the proudest of the human family in tn
highest and noblest attributes of the INTEL
lect, mind and soul. To argue the truth Of
this fact requires condescention too
low for q Negre to stoop. To advocate,
appeal and demand for him an equal chance
for the development of his talents in the
world of science. literature, art, commercs,
and the affairs of life generally, il higa
Christian duty and special province Of
this journal. Great progress has been
made toward this end in the last decade,
and we look forward to the day when
broadened and enlightened opinion shall
completely llberate the Negro from the
wrongs inflicted upon him by prejudices,
and every man shall be measured accord
ing to his worth and merit. To hasten
forward this time the GAZETTE will lend its
best energies and talent, fostering kindly
feelings between the races as an important
factor to its realization.
Its weekly report OF important colorel
news gathered from all parts of the world

est for every colored reader.
