BISHOP r. NJ. BURNER,
or the African Methodist Church, Ad-
dresses his People on the Subject
of Slavery at Memphis

At the session of the West Tennes-
see Conference at the African Metho-
dist Church in Memphis last week
Bishop r. M. Turner addressed the
conference in the following language
touching the foolish fears of his PEG,
pie that they will oe remanded to sla-
very:
A motion having been made to ad
jcurn, the bishop arose and said:
Before we adjourn l wish to say a
few words. | have heard with sorrow
certain reports which wish you all
to help silence. Some of the more
ignorant of our people are working
themselves into frenzy over the pros
poets of again being remanded to sla>
very if Gov. Cleveland should be de-
clared President of the United States.
This jargon / have heard until am
tired of it. | thought at first it was
a joke. Now | learn that a woman
has threatened to kill her children
to keep them out of slavery. Cleve
land never was stakeholder, nor
would he have all the colored people
in the land if he could, nor could he
restore slavery if he had mind to do
it. | am told Gov. Cleveland has
appointed more colored men to posi-.
tions since he has been in office than
all the Governors New York ever had,
and if he is President l believe the
negro will share as usual. You had
better get frightened at that unjust,
cruel, wicked and infamous Supreme
Court at Washington City who, in IA
decision that it took seven minutes to
read, sold out at public auction T.
O00,0 of negroes, by stripping them
of all civil rights twenty ,odd years
after they were declared free. Talk
about selling and buying negroes,
auction blocks and like words, here is
a negro sale day for you. A Repub,
lican Supreme Court, too, made up of
Northern men, and the only South
ern man on the bench protested against
the heaven. defying outrage. | have
made thousands of Republican speech
es, but if the party is whipped out
now it brought defeat upon its own
guilty head. The Supreme Court
sold out the negro, and the Republi-
can party said well done by its silence
Now, if the Republican party is sold
out she has reaped of her o wn sowing
/ did not vote for either party; never
will vote again for president, con
gressmen nor any government officer
for if cannot be a citizen like othel
people l will not be a political soul
lion, and any negro that does is crazy
/ sympathize with Mr.. Blaine person
ally, for l like the man, but if tn,
Republican party has been fogged il
is well merited. | shall never vote
except for State officers, for any par
ty again. In conclusion, l repea
there is a more dreadful calamity 70
the negro than Clevcland's election"

It's proposed that the democrats in
the New York legislature (who are
in The minority unite with enough
republican friends Of ConkIing to elect
him to the United Stares Senate. A
few democratic newspapers oppose
this, and say that the democrats ought
TO support a straight party man, when
they know he cannot be elected. Mr..
Conkling did excellent service for
Cleveland in the late canvass by
keeping his mouth shut, and this
helped to defeat Blaine 1t seems to
us that he would lie an independent
republican with democratic sympa'
thies if he were elected, and would
therefore do Cleveland's administra.
ton less harm than Blaine republi.
can would. Let him he elected, by
all means.

Among those spoken of in connec>
ton with Cleveland's Cabinet is Sem
ator Garland, Of Arkansas. We
doubt if he would care to exchange
his present place for position in the
Cabinet, but we do know that there is
not man in the Democratic party
whose appointment to such an office
would be safer or wiser, or give more
general satisfaction. Senator Gar
land is the sort of Southerner who
c9mpels respect by reason of his unu'
sual ability and his always dignifed
and fair.minded way of performing
his duties.-Globe Democrat.

The St. Louis Globe> Democrat does

Cleveland. The CD. says they are

now preparing to taffy the indepen-

some Tennessee papers to profit by the

The Philadelphia Times notes that
instead of spending their money for
red paint, red fire, transparencies and
other gaudy ornaments the Democrats
of Richmond, Va, are celebrating
Cleveland's election by a thank,offer-

asmuch, it says, as most of the poor
of Richmond are colored people, it is
hardly likely that even the irreconcil-
able Blaine mourners will object to
this method of showing joy.

more. Four years ago had a slight shock Of
