TO OUR YOUNG LADIES.

Carry the radiance of your soul in
your face, let the world have the benefit
Of it, let your cheerfulness be felt for
good wherever you are, and let your
smiles be scattered as sunbeams on the
unjust as well as the just. Such dispo-
sition will yield a just reward, for it's
happy effects will come home to you and
brighten your moments Of thought.
Cheerfulness clears the mind, gives tone
to thought, and adds grace and beauty to
the countenance.
Smiles are little things, cheap articles
to be fraught with many blessings both
to the giver and the receiver, pleasant
little ripples to watch as we stand on the
shore Of everyday life; they are higher
and better responses to the emotion of
the soul, let your children have the
benefit Of them, those little ones who
need the sunshine of the heart to edu-
cate them, and would find a level for
their buoyant nature in the cheerful
faces Of those who need them; let them
not be kept from the middle aged who
need the encouragement they bring;
give your smiles also to the aged, they
come to them like the quiet rain of
summer, making fresh and verdant the
long and weary path of life, they look
for them from you, who are rejoicing in
the fullness of life.

REGARDING PRIZE-FIGHTs.

The Mayor has said that he is not in
favor of prize-fghting in any form, and
that he had stopped all such exhibitions
in Market Hall, and would do SO in any
part of the city where his jurisdiction
reached. We say, good! Mr.. Mayor, it
is an evil that is fast gaining a foothold
here, despite the fact that many of our
more peaceable and law-abiding citizens
disapprove of it,: Perhaps some of our
contemporaries see the fallacy of the
steps they took in aiding the defeat of
the bill that was up before the legislature
last winter, relating to this very subject.
The growing evils of the city are of
such a nature, as requires all good citi-
zens, without regard to race or nation
atty, to seriously consider this question;
it is an undeniable fact that the God of
Mammon has taken hold of the masses,
to such an extent, that they have lost
sight of all else; but the warming has
come, and it is for you, as men having a
respect for your homes and families, to
awaken to the situation, and it is hoped
that the Mayors efforts in this direction
will be supported by all, without regard
to party,

Convict Lab or

The associated Press dispatches of
June goth gives. a very thrilling account
of the atrocities committed upon de-
fenseless colored conyicts, In South Car
olina. These repeated occurances show
how fondly we are cared for by our
southern friends While it is true these
soutrages aye not committed by the true
hearted southerner, yetit. is within his
knowledge for no efforts seem to be made
by those in power to remedy the evil.
The heart of every man and woman
either North or South, who has
any sympathy for humanity, ought to
revolt against such action, and the
masses should lister themselves and see
to it, that even though a man be COM
mitted to a prison for crime he should
be treated as a human being, and not as
a brute. The prison bosses of to-day
are the same cruel overseers of slavery,
who stands more in need of the lash
and shot gun than those whom they in
fict it upon. tits hoped that the press
throughout the country will take up the
question Of convict labor and agitate
it to such an extent that the Legislatures
in those states where it is carried on will
be compelled to repeal the law grant
ing it and give to the convict such pro-
lection as a human being though Grim
inal deserves.

Let the question of what kind of treat

Let the question of what kind of treat
ment colored men are to receive, when
carrying on business in this city in re-
spectful way be settled now. If the
council proposes to order the issuing of
special and discriminating licenses to our
business men, let them tell us so. But
if they propose to make us pay the same
as they do other nationalities doing the
same kind Of business, then we don't
want their officers instructed to tell us
to move from any locality, simply because
we are colored men, when white men
doing the same kind Of business are not
disturbed. Gentlemen it is no use try
ing to stop us, you may try to hamper
us and throw all kinds of obstacles in
our way, but we will come to the front
in some way, just the same as running
river will work it's way around any OBJ
struction that may be in the way of it's
proper course. Let the authorities in
quire into this matter.

society or to the general order of exist
ing arrangements in respect to family.
The qualifications, whether in the way
of requirements or character for admi-
ssion to the. bar would undergo no
change it would still be at the option of
clients to select their own legal counsel,
and they would do so in the exercise of
their best judgment with reference to
their own interests. Competency and
ability in the profession would, as now,
be the rule of success. The best lawyers
whether men or women, would COM
mand the largest business and reap the
largest profits. Society would go on and
the family would 60 on as they now do,
with no disturbance in the relations of
the sexes to each other, or in their
feelings toward each other. Women
would still be women with the distinctive
peculiarities which Nature assigns to
them, and the same would be true ofmen.
The idea that some great evil is to be
averted, or some great good is to be Sc
cured, by excluding women from the
legal profession, is in our Judgment the
merest moonshine imaginable. To abol-
ish the exclusion would be simply open
ing the profession to both sexes on equal
terms, and would thus destroy the mon
opoly nowso generally possessed by the
male sex; and if the latter cannot stand
such competition, then this fact is a
good reason why the exclusion should
be abolished, and just as many women
as choose to do so, should, on equal
terms with man, have the opportunity
of trying the fortunes Of life in
the practice of law. We do not
believe in the theory which says to any
women that she shall not be a lawyer,
or that she shall not be a physician, any
more than we do in the theory which
says to her that she shall not be mer-
chant. We can see no good and suffi-
Gent reason why Mrs. Bradwell should
not be permitted to practice law if she
wishes to do SO and can stand the neces-
sary examination as to her knowledge
of law; and what is true in respect to
her is equally true in respect to every
woman. We would, in a word, break
down the monopoly of the male sex in
regard to the practice of law, giving to
both sexes an equal right, and then
leave things to take care Of themselves
under natural forces. If female lawyers
should prove a failure, then let them
| fail; but il, on the other hand, they
should prove a success, we should have
no objections. We believe in giving
women chance to try their powers in
this field SO far as they wish to do So

A Change.

AS we are advancing in intelligence,
their seems to be premeditated desire
on the part of our so called friends to
hamper our progress, for although there
was an institution of learning establish
ed by an act of Congress for the bene-
fit of the Negro race itseems to be about
to pass to other hands. When it started
it had a full corps Of colored teachers
transferred from Oberlin College, and
after the first senior class of the college
Department graduated, some or of
them were given positions as teachers,
and subsequent classes graduated from
their charge with credit, so it was in all
the several departments, but we were
progressing too fast for our dough faced
friends in charge of the institution and
as fast as change could be made after
Gen. O. O. Howard was removed from
the head of the University, Howard
University which started with 400
scholars enrolled, began to dwindle
down to what it is to-day, and now
instead of learned, and capable colored
men imparting knowledge and enlight-
eminent to their more ignorant brothers
and sisters white men who have no
interest in the race other than the dol
lar, that they are enabled to make out
of them, are put in he-positions of pro-
fessors in the several departments, we
speak particularly of the recent cleo
ton of the professor of Greek. Now
if they propose to continue Howard
University as a school of learning for
the colored race give us capable intel
igent, honest, and earnest colored men
to control the affairs and infuse the
knowledge to be gained by attending
there, and you will find that its mem
beers will be increased, the interest In
the institution revived, and the colored
people will gladly herald the day when
they can proudly point to one of the
greatest institutions of learning, that
America can afford under the control Of
the intelligence and cultivation of the
race.

EQUAL RIGHTS.


Now is the time for the colored citi-
zens Of this city and state to test the
Civil Rights Law, and see what virtue
there is in it. a colored gentleman and
friend walked into Donnelly's saloon on
Wabashaw Street on Thursday evening
and called for refreshments which was
refused them, now ifignorant contem-
ptible saloon keepers are to be allowed
to insult resp ctable colored men simply
because they wish to purchase of them
the same asany other person, we would
respectfully ask the law makers of this
state to erase the farce from the statute
books, and herald thesnews that Mime
sofa, once the home Of the free and
brave, is now the sheltering abod the
weak -kneed nabob. Give us full and
fair test Of this law, Mr.. Egan, and let
us see how much of it was meant, when
it was placed upon the statutes.
