VILLIFYING JOHN BROWN
Very Brilliant Reception-Social-
NeWs-Gossip.

WIKEs-BARRE, Mar. 2.-The most brill
liant social event of the season here, was the
ball of the Keystone band at keystone
Rink last Monday night, but the attendance
not large enough to show to advantage insuch
a spacious hall. There were guests from
Scranton and Pittston, all of whom seemed
to enjoy themselves hugely. At 10 o'clock
the grand March began to the strains Of
Boettcher's orchestra, Mr.. G.. w. Generals
acting as prompter, after which dancing
was kept up till early morn. Some of the
ladies present wore costly and elaborate toi-
let's, among them Mrs. Isaac Gould of
Sternsyile, Mrs. VIM. Crabb, Miss Alice
Adams, Mrs. L. Irwin, Mrs. Mary B. Brown
of Scranton, Miss Lettie Brown, Miss Mag
gle Stevenson, Miss Nellie Welcome, Mrs.
B. M. Hazen, Miss Ida johnson, Mrs. Mary
Powell. There were so many fine looking
ladies there, that we will not venture to
name the belle of the evening, but Blood
Singleton of Pittston in full dress suit was
the BEAU Miss Liddie Brown has the credit
of selling tbirtv-fve tickets for the fair.
Mrs. Joanna Hopkins went to Pittston ON
Saturday to visit Mr.. George Butler and
family. Some old fogy writing to the Ere
ming Leader under the signature Of "Old
Student" takes occasion to villify the mem
ory of old John Brown, the famous martyr
abolitionist. The writer may be an old stu
dent but it is evident that he has not made
much progress in ethics or else he would
never speak i'll Of the dead. The young
men of the Wyoming Seminary proposed to
discuss the question: (which was the great
est hero, Washington or John Brown?'
This "old student" who seems to have
studied long and learned little, becomes in
dignant at the comparison, ani rushes into
print to traduce the dead. Last Friday
Miss Susie Naylor, Mrs. John Green and
Mrs. b M. Hazen visited Sturfnerville, the
guests of Mrs. Isaac Gould. The amount
realized from the A. NJ. f. Zion Church fair
was SOB. Much credit is due the commit
Tee who managed this fair, and they hereby
return thanks for the liberal patronage
which they received.

A Prayer.
Written for The Freeman by Esta Garne

Pray for thee. friendY So will pray for thee.
Mine every thought from hence prayer shall be
That God will bring thee safe across the sea
OF life.
For thou hast brought me to fair fields Of peace,
Hath given me from bondage full rclease
Thou guidest me where pain and sorrows cease,
And strife.
Therefore, my more than friend, can but pray,
At morn, at noon and in the evening gray,
That he who loves will keep thee all the way,
Steadfast
We two shall meet some day, know not where,
Save that the land be beautiful and fair,
And TIL We meet for thee my faithful prayer
Shall last

The Haytien Mission Disposed of.

Since Mr.. Cleveland's election the air has
been full Of speculation as to who would
succeed Hon. John Mercer Langston as Min
lister Resident and Consul General to Hayti.
Nearly every prominent colored Democrat
and Independent has been named for the
place, but it vas very generally conceded
that the place would go to Prof. Peter II.
Clark of Ohio, Mr.. James G. Matthews Of
New York having declined to stand for it.
But all speculation is now sat an end.
Last Monday President Arthur sent to the
Senate, which confirmed the name of Col
George w. William Of Massachusetts, to sue
ceea Minister Langston. We do not know
whether President Cleveland will have
power to recall Mr.. Williams before he pro-
ceeds to Hayt, or after he arrives there,
without cause, within the time for which he
is appointed.
Col. Williams is very shrewd colored
man. The unexpected is very natural with
him. He has been member of the Ohio
Legislature, Judge-Advocate Of the Grand
Army Of the Republic Of Ohio, and is the
author Of the "History Of the Negro Race in
America
Col. Williams earnestly supported the
candidacy Of President Arthur in the late
Presidential contest, and after Mr.. Blaine
was nominated he sulked in his tent. The |
nomination was supremely distasteful to
him. He took no active part in the cam
paign, although one Of the most effective
campaign speaker in the country.
Col. Williams is a man of excellent pres
ence He always dresses like a Nabob. and
travels in the best of style. While in
Washington he usually stopped at the Eb-
bit House, in New York at the Hoffman
House and in Boston at Young's Hotel He
always leaves the impression upon you that
he is man of boundless resources Of money
and brains.

NeW .nrk Rents.

"en' - oiie Of the most important and ex
penslve lter us Of poor mans outlay. In a
malori' I of cases one-third sometimes one
naD of his earnings resolves itself into rent.
Ahe land-owning shylock stands between
him and the curb-stone and exacts his
hard toll without giving in return any
equivalent based upon natural justice, for
one man has no more Inherent right in the
ownership of the soil than another,
The colored people of New York city suf-
fer more injustice in the matter of rental
than any other class of our citizens They
are not only forced to colonize in the worst
sections of the city, and into the very worst
eenements, but they are charged fabulous
prices for the luxury of having place to
sleep aud eat.
There are tenement houses, which sre
called flats, of the very best rented to col
cred people, of five stories, which rent for
$50 per Goor. There are two apartments of
| from four to six rooms. and these so small
that when u bed is placed in one of them
there isno room forany other furniture. The
entire property is not worth more than
$25, 900.
Houses which nobody else will rent are
palmed off on colored people, at fabulous
rental, who in order to meet it are forced to
fill the house from bottom to garret with
lodgers, of every conceivable character, who
are able to pay rent. This of course, while
it must of necessity breed desease, also
breeds vice. The indiscriminate mixture
could not do other than produce very harm
full results.
Each year the rental of New York prop
erty grows more expensive to colored people,
who do not enjoy salaries that warrant them
in spending so much in this particular.
When rents grow too steep for the whites |
they remove to the suburbs, but colored |
people seldom do this. Once in q city like
New York they have horror of moving
away. They prefer the city. The land
lords know this, and pile on the rent. The
colored people squeel but pay it-when
they can.
Several Building Associations have been
started of late years by colored men to own
and control property to be rented to the peo-
pie at living rates, but they have not
amounted to any thing. Why? Because
the race is wanting in most marked de-
gree in the qualities of cooperation; it has
10 confidence in itself; it prefers to be fleeced
year i'll and year out, instead of combining
md cooperating for mutual protection and
advantage. Necessity will yet compel
hem to take this matter in hand.
The colored people of New York squan- t
ler annually more than $5O,OOO in balls,
'icnics and excursions. This money is ab- I
t'-----s tAyen the l,rs-S- Q
re it is supposed to purchase IS oftener the G
olson of death than the elixir Of life. We I
lould grow more thoughtfulin these mat .
srs. The poverty of the race is a standing n
rotest and reproach that such extrava- '
ance should obtain. AS long as we spend :,
loney as we now do, together with the other 6
rawbacks we have to contend against, we il
snnot hope for much amelieration of our o
ard condition. " "

Our Hero-A Story OF the Rebellion.

Written for TIE Freeman BY Frances e. ". Harp
The treacherous sands had caught our boat
And held 1t with a strong embrace,
And Death at our imprisoned crew
Was sterniy looking face to face.
With anxious hearts but failing strength
We strove to push our boat from shore,
But all in vain; and there we lay
With bated breath and useless oar.
Around us from the foeman's hand
The fiery hail fell thick and fast
And we engirded by the sand
Could not return the dreadful blast.
When one arose upon whose brow
The ardent sun had left his trace;
A lofty purpose, strong and high.
Uplighting all his dusky face
Perchance within that fateful hour
The wrongs Of ages thronged apace,
But with 1t came the glorious no
OF swift delIveranCe for his ra
OF CALLING chains asunder rent,
OF severed hearts again made one,
OF freedom crowniDg all the land
Through battles gained and triumphs won
'Some one" our hero firmly said,
''Must die, to get us out Of this!'
Then leaped upon the strand and barred
His bosom to the bullets hiss.
aye men are soldiers, and can hght,
May win in battles yet unfought;
have no offering but my life,
And if they Kill me, 1t is nought."
With steady hands he grasped the boat
And boldly showed it from the shore,
Then fell by rebel bullets pierced
His life work grandly, nobly DER.
Our boat was rescued from the sand
And launched in safety on the tide.
But he. our cemrade, good and grand.
In our defence had bravely died.

IS THIS TRUEP
A Matter which the American Col
onization Society Should Look

"A mdLGST "uACA Iu0 AAA6IA&zhA NO1-
onization Society Should Look
Into.
To THE EDITOR OF THE FREEMA E:-You
will kindly allow me to express few words
through the columns of your paper for the
good of the colored people now in kmerica
desiring to make Liberia their futAe home.
i i is sss desire and bseEs i is Assize
colored people make Liberia theiE future
home, for it is indeed a land of lhe free.
Here man can be man and enjo1R Rll the
privileges and advantages belonging to
man. Notwithstanding, however, the ad-
vantages here, my advice to those Wtp de-
sire to come now is to stop for the Hresent
until they are definitely Informed tlat the
Colonization Society has made some ghange
in their agency here; or come out al their
own expense. The emigrants that co one to
the country are said to receive six months
rations from the society, but rarely ever get
they soon become discouraged and leate the
country in disgust. Without proper medi-
cal attention, and having most of thetime
some inexperienced old woman to attend
them during the fever, some die for here |
want of attention; but worse of all the tgent |
of the society is an Englishman, who isE op- |
posed to the American emigrants, and pses |
their provisions for his family; dimes sufnp- |
tuously like an Englishd Lord, while the
poor emigrants die from stayation.

The declining health of Gen. Grant is re-
gretted by the entire nation. His name is
inseparably associated with the history of
the country for the past twenty years, and
his death would be not only a national but
international calamity. Let us hope that
his life may long be spared to his country.

We regretfully decline to enter into a
controversy upon dogmatic theology with
our contemporary the Progressive american.
What we maintain is that our religion
teaches the breadest catholicity and fore
bearance, and that, all things being consid-
cred the followers of Mahomet have as
much right to maintain the correctness of
their religion as have the followers of Jesus
Christ. We have right to get all the
converts We can by peaceful means; we
should win by force of reason, not of arms.
