AN APPEAL
To the Colored People OF This City
and Elsewhere.

Editor San Antonio Light.
San ANTONIO, August o, 1ss4.-We,
who feel that the time to throw of the
badge of servitude has come, call upon
all fair-minded men to come to the res
cue to assist in redeeming this land Of
ours from the grasp of the tyrant. In
vain we have called for equal rights,
equal educational facilities, equal COM
mercial privileges, equal privileges to
labor, equal wages for equal services,
equal protection from violence on the
street, in the car, in the pleasures Of life,
In the halls Of learning-in fact, we de-
mand equal rights, nothing more, moth
ing less. Where are our free institu-
tions? Soon the voice of the pedagogue
win be heard calling the roll, but where
will your child, where will my child,
where will our neighbours child be?
Shut out by. the prejudice OF caste !!
Where will the coming citizen be edu-
Gated, and by whom the institution sup
ported? Let the mantle Of shame cover
that "blind lady's countenance as she
hears her name disgraoed by the traves-
ty on her DEGREES entered upon her
reoords-court records. We appeal to
you, friends, as bound by the ties Of fell
low-servants. We appeal to you, friends,
bound by the ties Of oonsanguinity. We
appeal to you, brothers, as members Of a
common brotherhood to work for COM
mon interest. Where are the wrongs
righted grievances redressedp Where
are the appropriations for schools prom
ised Where is our promised reoogni-
tion by the arrogant, the overbearing,
self-chosen rulers of our free and happy
countryY Let us arouse In the name of
American citizens and demand that the
farce be ended and our rights granted

Compromising with q Photographer.

A man about 80 years of age galloped
down the stone step leading to the Western
Union Telegraph office, yesterday, and
rushed at the received clerk with the in
quiry:
Can I express my feelings in q tele-
gram ?"
DO you mean that you want to use pro-
fame language?
Il do. want to use some Of the tallest
kind of it ~
{" We can't send anything Of that sort.
There are no letters i'll the Morse alphabet
to stand for swearing words.
Well, then, III have to let it go, but
wanted TO telegraph to my brother that
had been robbed. l put my satchel down
TO fight with hickman, and some one
stole it"
He went away growing and muttering,
but in about an hour he returned in sun
hotter haste and exclaimed:
Now Eve been robbed Of my coat and
$40 in cash, and We got to swear by tele-
graph OF bust! Hung my coat on tele-
graph pole while / was trying to outjump
a fellow, and some one gobbled it"
las told you before, we don't transmit
any profane language" replied the clerk.
You can notify your brother that you
have had bad luck"
ana not express my leeullSS never
He wouldn't believe il was me. Make an
exception in my case, can't you?'
The clerk couldn't and the man said he
would do his swearing by letter and make
it heavy enough for double postage. 1t
wasn't half an hour, however, before he re
appeared, and this time he couldn't stand
still as he shouted out:
+" I've got to do i'll Hadn't been out of
here ten minutes when a chap in ashooting
gallery mopped me all over the floor.
Robbed licked-mopped Say, lemme
swear by telegraph. Pve got dollar left,
and I'll give it to you to send ten words to
Bay City"
"You might get around the rule By send
ing cipher dispatch" suggested the clerk.
Bully I tumble. III fix it in just q
minute"
And he wrote and handed in:

Advices from Victoria.

VICTORIA, September 18th Two Danes
named Vinils Peterson and Peter Miller
just arrived from Kodiak Island near the
Alaskan mainland, after 105 days in a
kayak, or Aleu,ian canoe, which weighs
only Is pounds, is nineteen feet long and
two feet wide. The canoe is formed Of the
skins of sea-hons stretched on q wooden
framework, with apartures for the bodies OF
the paddlers, which can be made water
tight by bladder-like skins fastened round
the occupants. Both men leave in few
days for Portland and San Francisco, and
at both places will lecture upon the trip and
place the canoe on exhibition.
For some time past it has been suspected
that the Chinese were removing the bodies
of their dead countrymen from the Old
cemetery previous to the bone-scraping and
burning, ready for shipment TO China, in
defiance of the local Act forbidding said
desecration unless by order of the Coroner.
A grave-stone had been damaged and the
piekets thrown down, so a watch has ac-
cordingly been set for the Offenders who,
if detected, viii have to pay dearly for their

AN ELECTRIC WHEsL-BUG. - General
Davis of the British army, who was a
famous insect collector, once picked up a
wheel-bug in the West India Islands, and
received blow that paralyzed his arm for
some time. As he shook the insect off he
noticed where it had stood on his hand
six red marks, the impression of its feet
Kirby and Spencer also refer to this pecu-
liarity of the insect, and other naturalists
have received shocks from certain of the
luminous beetles. Captain Blakeney took
up an unknown caterpillar and immedi-
ately received such a shock that his entire
right side became paralyzed, and, for
short time, he was dangerously Ill.

Status of the Country's Crops.

WASHINGTON, September lSth.-The re-
suits of inquiries made by the Department
of Agriculture concerning the present
status of crops, show that the corn crop is
in a better condition than i'll any Scptem-
Der since 1880 The general average is 81
1t was 81 last September, 50 in 1882 ard 90
in 1881 Indications are that the total
yield will not be less than / 500, 900, 600
bushels, or an average yield of 26 bushels an
acre. Where corn has had proper atten-
ton the crop IS No. l. The product Of
winter wheat is about the average, and
generally OF good quality. The rate Of

The results of the harvest of spring wheat
are not vet complete, but its probable az
gregate viii vary little from 10000 900
bushels The State Department Agent in
Washington Territory says the harvest of
wheat shows good yield in all parts of the
Territory, both as oquantity and quality.
County correspondents report from Cali
foTnia In Yuba the crop is unusually
good, many fields averaging 3 bushels per
acre and some 40 to IS. Many samples
shown weigh COZ TO CIT pounds per bushel.

son the finest crops that have ever been
seen in the United States. Tulare would
have been above the average, but from the
fact of the heavy rains having lodged it.
San Diego turned ont very poorly. In San

the yield is very satisfactory. In Placer
