as plausible as the principles Of the
Republican party, which we know
to be bait, The time has not
yet arrived for democratic suprem-
acy. The time has not come that
will enable this people to sup
port the Democratic party. There
are too many evidences of the gun
shot policy and other enmities COM
mitted against our people. Let
us have a government where the
rights of the people are not
abridged. We don't ask for social
equality. We know that social
equality cannot be forced by legis-
lation, and all we ask is that we
be given recognition according to
merit. We ask for protectlen of
the negro in tina South. We ask
for aid to educate the poor and
half fed negro in the South. Give
US this and let social equality
work out Its own destiny.

Leyity and Cheerfulness.

Between levity and cheerfulness there is
wide distinction; and the mind which is
most open to levity is frequently stranger
to cheerfulness. 1t has been remarked that
transports of intemperate mirth are often
no more than flashes from the dark cloud;
and that in proportion to the violence of
the effulgence is the succeeding gloom.
Levity may be the forced production of
folly or vice; cheerfulness is the natural
offspring of wisdom and virtue only. The
one is an occasional agitation; the other
permanent habit. The one degrades the
character; the other is perfectly consistent
with the dignity of reason, and the steady
and manly spirit of religion. To aim at
constant succession of high and vivid SEN
sations of pleasure is an idea of happiness
perfectly chimerieal. Calm and temperate
enjoyment is the utmost that is allotted to
man. Beyond this we struggle in vain to
raise our state; and in fact depress our joys
by endeavoring to heighten them. Instead
of those fallaeious hopes of perpetual fes-
tivity with which the world would allure
as, religion eonfers upon Us a cheerful tram
1uility. Instead of dazzling Us with me
teors of Joy which sparkle and expire, it
sheds around us q calm and steady light,
more solid wore equal and more lasting.

THE CIVIL RIGHTS BILL A BAIT.

Colored voters throughout the
state of Ohio will do we'll to re-
member what Allen o. Myers, a
democratic legislator, said recent
": "The Democrats do not want
the 'nigger yote'." No one did
more toward preparing and push
ing through the recent Civil Rights
bill than this same o. Myers. He
sees what a great help the colored
vote OF Ohio could be to the Dem
cratic party his party-and
therefore forgets his recent re-
mark concerning the 'pigger vote ,
as he pleases TO term the colored
vote, and assisted his brethren in
vainly trying to make the Repub-
lican members of the House an
tagonize the bill and at the same
time prepare a bait to catch the
'colored vote. We are obliged to
them for the bill, such as it is, but
nevertheless, they cannot get our cote.
We would be more obliged to
them if they had kept, after once
accepting Mr.. Loves amendment
and then they could not haze caught
our Uote. We don't wish to force
our votes upon Mr.. Allen nigger-
vote-O'Myers because unlike Fred
erick Douglass we are Negroes, and
are proud of it, Ceaueland Gag

When the august pair were first married,
although the match was one of love, at
least on the Queens part, her Majesty could
not always control her temper, and on the
occasion of one of those trifing quarrels
which occur in the best regulated families
she threw tea-cup at the Princes head
He, excessively indignant, retired to his
apartments and locked the door.
The Queens anger having somewhat
abated, she thought him sufficiently pun
ished and knocked at his door. To the
question who's there?D she replied IN I'M
perious tones, "The Queen" Prince Albert
did not answer, and she went away. BY
and by she thought she would try again,
and to the who's there ?" answered "Vic-
toria." Again there was complete silence,
and she again retired. With the perseyer-
ance Characteristic of woman alarmed at
the trouble to come, she determined to try
third time and in response to the who's
there?" replied sobbingly, "Your own low
ing wife" This brought Prince Albert to
terms, and peace was re-established. 1t is
said there was no more tea-cup throwing in
the happy family.
Yet Victoria always remained an exacting
wife, and never allowed her spouse what is
UVuE yCUtoCHtCHt hIOHA dS q ldlSH-hCys AS
the Prince presided at many public dinners,
it was often close to midnight before he
could possibly reach Windsor, and he had
accordingly always a storm to face for
keeping late hours" Finally, the Queen
ordered the castle gates to be closed at 1O4
p. M. snd the now much monumented hus-
band was locked out if he happened to be
behind time.
Prince Albert was thoroughly stingr
and was cordially disiked by the servants
of the royal household. He ruthlessly abol-
ished the perquisites which, from long Gus
tom, they considered themselves entitled to,
and went so far as to confscate the money
they received by disposition of the ends of
the wax candles used to illuminate the ball
and concert rooms. Even in the houses of
the smaller gentry the servants are accus-
toned to refresh with cold meat and beer
any of their friends or the tradesmen call
ing through the day. At Buckingham Pal
ace this custom prevailed. This, however,
was too much for the Princes German ideas
of frugality, and he ordered the servants to
be placed on board wages so that any hos
FATALITY they wished to offer their friends
had to be paid for out of their own pockets.
Little wonder, then, that when he died the
grief In the servants hall was not uneon-
trollable.-Loadon Hour.

The Logan Bill.

Hon. john A. Logan, the ma
tons friend, the defender of the
soldier, a protector to the widow
and orphans, has introduced bill
in the Senate, creating a commits
sion of representative colored men
to look into the condition of the
race. This is one of the best
measures that has ever been in
troduced in Congress creating a
commission to look after the col
ored race. Let the colored press
throughout the country advocate
the immediate passage OF the Lo-
gan bill. Bishop I'll. M. Turner,
Quarls, and others are men of edu-
cation and character who will GER
tainly carry out their obligations
should the bill become a law. This
act of kindness on the part of Sena-
tor Logan will ever be remembered
by the colored race. The condi-
ton of the colored race In this
country is bad. They receive no
protection at the ballot box, and
a very little consideration from
those who claim to be their friends.
If we ask for protection we are
given the bullet; if we demand
recognition we are told that we
have too much already. We be-
ieve that the gentlemen named in
Senator Logan's bill know the
wants Of the colored people, and
will make a report that will startle
the country. If any body knows
the condition of our people Bishop
Turner does. He is a man of
great learning, and one who will
reflect credit upon the race. We
say as much for Mr.. Quarls. Let
every journal advocate the imme-
diate passage of the Logan bill.
