SL3lO,OOO over last year.
DEsPAIRING Of admission during the
present session of Congress, the
Walla Walla Union believes it wiser
that the whole effort of our people and
their representatives be concentra-
ted upon securing the annexation of
North Idaho.
FROM statistics furnished the Co
hunbian of the quantities and value
of fish caught in the Fraser and Bur
rard Inlet during last season, it is
shown that the value, in addition to
the fishing plant, aggregates 81, ,19O,,
0SS. Of this, salmon in cans, smoked
and salted, amounts to S1,025,930.
The Victoria COlOnist says: In
some of the butcher shops mutton is
a scarce article. The supply from the
mainland is cut off till steamers are
again running to Yale. Sheep can
be purchased on the other side, but
they will probably cost Is cents per
pound to get them into this market.
The beef supply now in town, it is
said, will run out in about a month,
and that will likely be before com
munication with the upper country is
fairly established.
In the effort to admit Washington
Territory the Washington Post thinks
it sees desire to make "baby states"
so as to insure the perpetuity of re-
publican majorities. Yes, but what
a healthy infant Washington Terri
tory is, with her 100000 sturdy peo-
pie, her forests, mines and cities; her
immense natural wealth and resour-
ces. And Dakota, another "baby
state" with 225,0OO people and Il
grand country for a million more.
These territorial infants are lusty
little fellows. Historian.

General in his address from the throne,
said: "While passing through the Unit
ed States was rejoiced to observe many
evidences of regard for the empire Of
which this country forms so large a por-

WASHINGTON LETTER.
,Orespondence Of the MESSENGER.

Correspondence Of the Messenger.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Mch. 22d, '63.
The Union Bethel Literary and
Historical Association has steadily
grown into popular favor during
the last year, so that it is now at
once the most interesting and en-
couraging feature in Washington
society. This association was or
gained under the auspices of the A..
NJ. E. Church and the especial care
and supervision of Bishop d. A.
Payne, the beloved father of that
church, about two and half years
ago, and is designed for the mental
and moral elevation of the colored
people without regard to denomina
ton. 1t meets every Tuesday even
ing, when the wealth and intelli-
gence of the colored people of
Washington 60 hurriedly to Bethel
Hall, a small, frame building of I'M
pretentious appearance, which is
the intellectual arena where our
lawyers, theologians, doctors and
professors join In earnest and ex-
citing combat. A visit to this hall
will well repay any one. On Tues
day evening of last week Rev. B.
T. Tanner, d. D., editor of the
Christian Recorder, entertained a
large and appreciative audience
with an able paper entitle: "The
year 1000, and what of it,. DIR.
Tanner has an ease and grace of ex-
preston, an augmentative style and
a keen, searching intellect, as | was
able to judge from his disposition OF
the paper. He claims that the me-
gro, owing to his remarkable fe-
cundity, will eventually, by virtue
of a superior numerical strength,
and the "non .productiveness." Of
the Northern Yankees, becomes the
leading race in America. The paper
elected warm arguments from Prof
r. I. Greener, Rev. w. II. Brooks,
Messrs. r. J.. Smith, G. NJ. Arnold
Il. S. Smith, of the Globe, and A
st. A. Smith. Dir. Tanner is one Of
the few advanced thinkers of ouI
race who can reason logically, Sc.
verely and consistently, so that che
who runs, may read" On Tuesday

night last the President Of the as
ISOLATION, Mr.. r. J. Smith, spoke on
"the Zulus and the Zulu War /" in
his usual felicitious style. Mr..
Smith has very pleasing address
and earnest style. He has extern
sively travelled, is native Of Ber-
muda, has a foreign accent and al
ways says something good.
On Friday evening last in the
College Chapel occurred the Junior
Exhibition of the class of '84, OF
! Howard University. This class
consists of F. J. Bundy, W. T.
James and W. L. Tunnel. Mr..
Bunday opened with Mixed
Schools" followed by Mr.. James,
with "The Plaques of the Re-
public" while Mr.. Tunnel closed
with "Literature-its Influences
on Civilization. 1t is fair to pre-
sumo, from the excellence of the
productivcness, that these gentle
men will thoroughly live up to their
motto, Cogita ct Age" This class,
though small, is one of the most
brilliant in the institution. The
catalogue of Howard University,
which has just been issued, shows
an attendance for the present year
of 381.
The twenty-frst anniversary of
the emancipation of slaves will be
celebrated on the 10Th of April with
more than usual "pomp and cere-
mony." The Hon. Frederick Doug
lass has been elected orator of the
day, and the name of Douglass is
only another synonym for success.
Col. R. G. Ingersoll, the eloquent
lawyer, has been invited to deliver
an address. President Arthur has
been invited to attend in company
with his cabinet. Col. NJ. M. Hol-
land will be master of ceremonies.
1t is to be hoped that this day
which recalls so much suffering, so
much destruction and SO much ma
tional agony will fifty commemorate
the event it celebrates.
Mr.. Geo. W. Williams, the author
ofthe history Of the Negro in Amer
lea, will make an address on that
subject in the College Chapel of
Howard University on Thursday
next, the 10Th. E. L. T.
