This weeks instalment of falsehood's
from the 'little black" sometimes
called the Rev. Mr.. Accooe, is evident
ly the original production and does
not look as though it had received
any finishing touches after it left his
hands. He never visited our Office
but once and then to ask us to send
him THE News free. This we ,'consen-
ted to do although his predecessors
have always subscribed. We should
certainly have refused to publish his
slanderous articles had he offered
them TOT He evidently has double
meaning in rushing into print which
will be made known before many
months.
The Board of Trustees, of this Dis
trict, met at the Office of Mark r.
Sooy, Esq, on Monday evening and

colored school teacher was also re-
elected. The charges made against
him were carefully investigated by
the Board and proved groundless.
On Saturday evening the Board met
again and elected Miss Mary B.
Clothier, of Mount Holly, to fill the
vacancy caused by Miss Risdon's re-
signation.

Rev. Mr.. Sooy, who was invited to
become Pastor of Grace M. f. church,
this city, but whom the Bishop de-
clined to transfer in Difference to OBJ

balanced transfers is creating sensa-
ton in his church in Trenton by his
radical sermon on temperance and on
Sunday observances. He declares

for Blaine at the last election, but that
the revengeful course pursued by Re-
publican politicians has convinced him
ofthe insincerity of their temperance
promises and that hereafter he will
vote with the Prohibitionists.
