The decision of the supreme court OF the
United States, that the Civil Rights bill' il
unconstitutional, was not unexpected by
those who had given the subject careful at
tention. Senator Carpenter, one Of the best
lawyers in the senate, made forcible argu-
ment against the oonstitutionaiity of tho
bill, taking precisely the same ground as that
taken by the court in its decision. The law
while having been seldom invoked for the
protection of any class of our citizens, has
doubtless, served good purpose as indicat
inc the desire and intention of q great
majority of our people 10 treat our colored
fellow citizens exactly the same as all other
classes. 1t il natural that the decision of
the court should cause some degree of OK
element and apprehension in the minds of
the colored people, but we believe, there il
little, if any, occasion for it. The last fifteen
years has done much to eradicate the bitter
race prejudice that once existed in our
country, and has served to familiarize our
people with the radical change which con-
verified the negro from o chattel into q man
and citizen. They have come to consider
our colored brethren in the same light and
10 treat them in the same manner as they do
all other men; as men and equals when they
show themselves to be such by their con-
duct and actions, and as loafers and interiors
when they voluntarily assume such position.
With the present existing public senti-
ment, there is no need for special Legislation
ON behalf of any race of men, white or
black. The colored man will rise, stand, or
fall upon his own individual merits the same
.s all other men. His manhood and his
citizenship remain unimpaired the consti-
rational amendments are in no wise affected
10y the decision, and 10 state can 10y law
abridge or infringe the rights of any man or
class of men, on account of race, color or
previous condition.
As the matter appears TO Us, our colored
citi zens have no cause for alarm by reason
OF the decision of the court, if, indeed, it will
not eventually prove advantageous to them,
from the fact that they and their friends
will be able to point with pride" to the fact
that they have the ability 10 maintain their
position as men and rs good citizens, and to
obtain just recognition of the same rights
that other mon enjoy, without the aid of
special legislation in their behalf.

TRUTHS

The blood is the foundation Of
life, it circulates through every part
of the body, and unless it is pure
and rich, good health is impossible.
IL disease has entered the system
the only sure and quick way to drive
it out is to purify and enrich the
blood.
These simple facts are well
known, and the highest medical
authorities agree that nothing but
iron will restore the blood to its
natural condition; and also that
all the iron preparations hitherto
made blacken the teeth, cause head
ache, and are otherwise injurious.
Browns IRON BITTERs will thor
oughly and quickly assimilate with
the blood, purifying and strengthen
ing it, and thus drive disease from
any part Of the system, and it will
not blacken the teeth, cause head
ache or constipation, and is posi-
lively net injurious.

KISSES ON INTEREST.

A father, talking to his careless
daughter, said: 81 want to speak to
you of your mother. 1t may be that
you have noticed a care-worn look
upon her face lately. OF course, it
has not been brought there by any
act of yours, still it is your duty to
chase it away. / want you to get up
tomorrow morning and get break
fast; and when your mother comes
and begins to express her surprise,
go right up to her and kiss her.
You can't imagine how it will bright
en- her dear face. Besides, you owe
her kiss or two. Away back, when
you were little girl, she kissed you
when no one else was tempted by
your fever-tainted breath and swollen
face. You were not as attractive
then as you are now. And through
these years of childish sunshine and
shadows she was always ready to
cure, by the magic of a mothers
kiss, the little, dirty, chubby hands
whenever they were injured in those
skirmishes with the rough old world.
And then the midnight kiss with
which she routed so many bad dreams
as she leaned above your restless pill
low, have all been on interest these
long, long years. Of course, she is
not so pretty and kissable as you are
but if you had done your share of
work during the last ten years GER
tainly the contrast would not be so
marked. Her face has more wrinkles
than yours, far more; and yet if you
were sick that face would appear
more beautiful than an angels, as it
lowered over you, watching every
opportunity to minister to your COM
fort and every one of those wrinkles
would seem to be bright wavelets of
sunshine chasing each other over the
dear face. She will leave you one
of these days. These burdens, if not
lifted flom her shoulders, will break
her down. Those rough, hard hands
that have dona co varu n1anU uaoac
sary things for you, will be crossed
upon her lifeless breast. Those neg
lected lips that gave you your first
baby kiss will be forever closed, and
those sad, tired eyes win have open
ed in eternity, and then you will ap-
preciate your mother: but it will be
too late"

SOUTHERN ILLITERACY.

The total number of voters in the
southern states is 4,154,125, of
whom l, ,354 ,074 are unable to write.
Of the latter, 69.7 pei cent. are
colored, and 30.3 per cent are white.
According to the same census, in ten
of the southern states more than 80
per cent. of the voters cannot read
and write; IN six of them 80 per
cent IN Soath Carolina 50 per cent.
The state of Alabama had 120,S58
of these ignorant voters, while the
whole popular vote, that was cast in
1880 was only Isl ,207 The state of
Georgia had at the same time 145,-
087 voters who could not read and
write, with popular vote of 155,-
651. The state of Mississippi had at
the same time Ill ,541 voters of this
same dense ignorance, and a popular
vote of III, ,07S. The state of Lou
isiana had at the same time 102,932
such voters. with a popular vote of
81, ,201-that is to say, the number
of voters who could not read and
write exceeded the whole of the act
ual vote; so that if these ignorant
whites and blacks could have been
brought out, they would have swamp
ed all the intelligence of the state
These statistics are not only astound-
ing they are in the highest degree
alarming. Aroused by this state of
things, the American Missionary As
sociation, which has already spent
five millions of dollars in education
at the south, has come to feel that
the work is too great for any volun-
tary association, and that the is
to be done thoroughly and univer-
sally, it must be undertaken by the
government.-IHe Evangelist.

or modes of thought, which may have
resulted from the unrecorded but
never obliterated history of years?
1t is mostly the old who are "odd,"
and when the young laugh at them,
how do they know they are not laugh
ing at what may be their own fate
some day? Many of popularity may
have sprung from some warped ma
ture, many an eccentricity may have
originated in the silent tragedy of a
lifetime. Of necessity, "odd'' peo-
pie are all solitary people. They
may dwell in crowd and do their
duty in large family, but neither
the crowd nor the family understand
them, and they know it. They do
not always feel it, that is, not to the
extent of keen suffering, for their
very oddity makes them sufficient to
themselves, and they have ceased to
expect the sympathy which they
know they cannot get. The tide of
life is almost sure to be at its ebb
with those whom we call odd people.
Young people have, in a sense, no
right to be odd. They have plenty
of years before them, and will meet
in the world enough attrition to rub
down their angles and make them
polished and pleasant to all behold

has brought to most of us the sad
"too late," which in many things we
all must find more or less, the case
is different. Therefore it becomes
the generation which is still advanc-
ing to show to that which is just
passing away, tenderness, considera-
ton and respect, even in spite of
many harmless weaknesses.

A few figures give an idea of the
financial magnitude of the railroad
business in this country. We think
the National debt of billion and a
half dollars big thing, but the total
of railroad capital is much bigger
thing. According to reliable statistics
and estimates, the total amount of
money invested in railroads up to the
present date is S6,314, 900, 900. The
total earnings for 1881 were s725,-
325, 119; the net earnings, S276,-
654,119. Of this immense invest
ment, the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company controls s620, 900, 900; the
Gould associates, $3.50, 200, 900; the
Vanderbilt Combination, 1864 ,000,-
600; ,Jewett and Erie Combination,
S347 900, 900; the Huntingdon Com
bination, STAT 900, 900; Pennsylva-
MIA coal roads, sos, 900, 900; Mitch
ell Management, 1929, 100000, and
the Garrett Management, s62 ,000,-
900. And this vast amount of money
more than three times that of the
National debt, is held and controlled
by about half dozen syndicates or
rings of rich capitalists and spec
ulators.
