unconstitutional that 1t attempted to con-
fer on the negro social privilege which
he could only acquire personally in COM
mon with other citizens, and that his CIVIL
rights as a citizen of the United btate are
not injured by the decision.
WHAT FRED DOUGLASS SAYS:
81 have said that I do not despair on acr
count of this decision. It is contrary to
the Declaration of Independence contrary
to the spirit Of Christianity, contrary to the
spirit of the age, and, as think, IN viola
ton of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth
Amendments, and tends directly to make
the colored people of the country an ag-
grieved class, and to weakening that spirit
Of patriotism which the nation may neto
for its protection in some perilous hour. >

CIVIL RIGHTS DECISION.
Views of Leading COlOred Men.

Views of Leading COlOred Men.
Washington, Oct 16.-The colored peo-
pile of the District will meet Monday night
to express their views in respect to the re-
cent decision of the Supreme Court on the
Civil Rights Bill. Among the speakers to
soil, Rev. Dr. Rankin, Judge Shellarbarger,
JEFF, Chandler, and Judge Riddle. Arthur
Smith, colored journalist, says there is
much feeling among the colored people
oTer the decision, though the more intel
ligent of them, who understood the Civil
Rights Bill, have always believed it was
not good law. If the 18th and 14th
amendments don't answer the purpose, the
colored people want another that will.
Ex Senator Bruce, Register Of the Treas
ury, who has just returned from the Ohio
campaign, was asked for his opinion on the
decision of the Supreme Court 1T is a
most unfortunate decision" was his reply,
land grieves me and thousands of others
very much. think its effect will be to
carry the country backward fifteen years, at
least 1t does not reflect the peoples will
as a court decision ought to do. and it is.
in my opinion, the revival of Calhoun's
theory of State rights"
What will be the effect upon the colored
race? asked the reporter.
THAT, do not q tempt to predict" was
the reply, "but do say that nothing has
occurred since the war to embarrass and
discourage them so much as the decision of
yesterday"
John L. Cook, colored, Collector OF Tax
es, says he does not regard the decision in
the same light as Douglass, ''that it is a
step back ward in progressive civilization"
He does not think public sentiment any
more antagonistio to the colored people
than when the law was passed. On the
contrary, he thinks it has made progress.
Nor does he think that the decision will in
any manner be an injury to the colored
race, except. perhaps, in localities where
ignorance prevails. The standing. moral
Iy and socially, of colored men and women
is to De measured by their desire for edu-
cation and mental culture.

EVER FAITHFUL AND TRUE.
BY LEON DE BARRos.
My love and |, by the sunsets glow,
Watched the waves unceasing flow,
As they broke on the glistening sand
My kisses warm on her red lips burned,
Her trusting gaze to mine upturned.
She murmured low, as hand clasped hand:
Ever faithful and true.''
Though by grief and sorrow you are tempest
Though the world condemns, and friends are
lost,
I will love you. dear.
And amid the cares and trials of life,
One haven you'll have, when storms arc rife;
One warm heart always near,
Ever faithful and true"
Lulled by the love-light, beaming bright.
In tho tender blue of her eyes soft light.
My hearts whole trust WAS given;
And bound by tress Of Furnished gold,
A slave she made me, heart and soul;
L wished no higher heaven.
Ever faithful and true!
But one short year, and on that sea-bcat shore,
Alone wander-alone forevermore!
While west ward sinks the sun
Low hang tho clouds, the muttcring thunder
nears;
Low moan tho waves, to my dull, despairing
ears:
Thy day of joy ia DONE
Ever faithful and truo!

THE IyY-CLAD RUIN.

BUNf-HEU, M. VIUKEKS.
'Ts the old, old church that for years I've
known,
And with ivy green are its walls o'ergrown;
All its ancient splendor has passed away,
And there's naught remaining but grim decay;
The pale moonbeams glimmer the window
through,
And the roof1ess floor is ali damp with dew;
Both the pious priest and his flock are gone,
And the gravestones watch o 'er their dead alone.
Oh, how oft I've passed thro' the spacious aisle,
And have met the throng with friendly smile;
When felt the thrill of the organs peal
But the forms / know enter here no more.
And no footsteps fall on the mouldy floor,
There's but one thing left that with life I've
seen
'Tis the faithful vino of the ivy green.
