THE NEGRO POLITICIAN.

Mr.. Reuben S. Smith, of the New
York Globe read a paper in meet
ing in in Washington City upon
"The Negro Politician" which
seemed to raise some excitement
and discussion. We have not seen
the paper, but from conversation
with Mr.. Smith, and his defense OF
the paper which he so ably repre-
sents, we know he would not en-
courage disruption in Metropolitan
party when the members of that
party are carrying out the princi-
Piles laid down by Garrison, Sumner
and the other founders of the old
party of freedom. We know he
would not advise nor encourage the
going into the Democratic or any
other party unless there was great
necessity forit. He advocates inde'
pendence of action by the colored
voter. He does not think the color
ed man a slave to any party though
it seems natural for him to act with
the republican party. But when
the Republican party is to be ruled
by bosses contrary to all principles
of fright and reason, then it is time
for the colored voter to assert his
manhood and stick to principle and
let the party leave and go where it
may. New York is republican to-
day and will fall in her proper place
in 1884. The good Republicans OF
that State saw it necessary to vote
with the Democrats to defeat boss
ism, and in doing SO did not vary
from Republican principles as far as
if they had voted for the men who
ran in the name of the Republicans.
The colored men helped do it, and
they should not be ashamed of it,
1t was no less SO in our own State.
Many good men of the party were
sacrificed on accout of mongrel allies.
When we see that the plan was to
keep the negro out, then it was our
duty to turn our backs upon those
hypocritical leaders pretending to be
our friends, land if necessary,it is our
duty to vote to defeat them. See
our best men betrayed, placed in
awkward positions, demoralized al
most disgraced. Why did not Re-
publicans and Liberals come to
Hairless rescue? Why was he al
lowed to fail with his bond? We
take that his pretended white friends
preferred to see a democrat fill the
place than negro. We want nc
better evidence Of this than the fact
that almost every time a man is
wanted to fill a place, government
place, democrat is taken in prefer
ance to a negro.
Then the negro is a mere figure
head in politics to a certain extent
The masses mistake by following
bad white men in preference to in
teiigent, good men of their own race
We must have our own leaders
They should be men of irreproach
able conduct, intelligent, good men

ted fact, that the great majority 81

might see and utilize with advantage
to themselves. The truth of the

as those persons who will not see

the eye sees what it brings the pow

given, if necessary, to show what
judicious training does for the per
ceptiye faculties in concentrating
the powers of mind and eye. Our
greatest errors lie in the work of
abstract processes of mind, and over

The daily Cairo bulletin. (Cairo, Ill.) 1878-1???, 1882-02-22
A Wasted 0nnortnnity.

A few weeks ago young servant girl
in Salt Lake received an offer of mar
riage from Mormon who already had
four wives. The offer was made through
a mutual friend, and the girl did not
even have an opportunity of seeing her
future husband. Suffice to know that
he owned considerable property in Salt
Lake and was otherwise well fixed in
the world. She thought the matter over,
concluded to call it a 90, and sent word
that he might name the day. He did so,
and on a foggy Thursday morning he
came round to the house with two wives,
and announced that he was ready to
take his young bride away. The servant
girl was upstairs getting ready to be
married, and the lady of the house met
the polygamous party at the door. She
noticed, somewhat to her establishment,
that the man was being led by his wives
for the very simple reason that he was
rs blind as bat and also over sixty
years of age. Rushing to the stairs she
called up to the girl:
sally, your sweetheart has come to
marry YOU
Tell him I'll be right down." said
the girl, adjusting a fresh hairpin and
throwing on few extra dashes of car
mine powder
He's siXty-fve years old and as blind
as bat"
whats that?" inquired the girl,anx-
iously leaning over the banister. The
startling information was repeated.
"Tell him to clear out was the re-
spouse. The lady of the house commun-
icated the command to move on to the
old polyg and his wives, and the party
stole sorrowfully away.
The inexperienced girl thought she
had made a lucky escape, but when
some married woman heard of it and
told her what good thing she had
missed, she began TO regret the hasty
decision, and now pines for the blind
man to return. There are hundreds of
women in Salt Lake who would give al
most anything for genuine blind hus-
band. The girl may never get another
such an offer in a lifetime. oSah Lake

Baltimore is threatened with an i'm
pairment of its large and profitable
oyster trade through the diminution of

stocked that they seemed inexhaustible,
and the oysters were large and we'll

One Of the best photographs in exist
ence is that Of Portsmouth harbor,
England, taken by the instantaneous
process. Six plates were used, and the
several sections united are about Al feet
inlength. In the immediate foreground,
just below the spectator, lies her males
tvs ship Scraps, which, with her white
sides partly in sunshine, and partly
shadedby the smoke ofapassing steamer,
forms striking centerpiece. The great
length of the harbor stretches out to
right and left. The foam and the smoke
OF the steamers, the ripping of the
water, and the curling of bunting in the
breeze, are all said to be perfectly dis
tinct and free from the smallest suspic-
ion of blur.
