Monday night. The occasion was q very
delightful one to all. The charming
hostess knows just how to make each
guest feel that he or she is the favored
one. Dancing was INDUCED in until /
O'Clock, when collation. was partaken
of and all repaired to their homes. The
occasion was an informal one, but the
costumes of both ladies and gentlemen,
seemed to be gotten up regardless of
expense, and no gathering Of our young
folks has shown more handsome toilets.

We published last week letter from
s. A. Mcfarland an inmate of the state
prison at Saltwater, giving a descrip-
ton of their Christmas festivities.
There is some doubt in the minds of
the people here in regard to the justice
of the sentence of Mcfarland and an
effort is on foot to secure his pardon.
Mcfarland, Judging from several letters
which we have received from him, is
an intelligent man and certainly an en-
thusiastic well wisher of his race. One
week ago he wrote stating that he
would get up club for the APPEAL, if
there was no objection. Of course
there was none, and now he has sent in
the names of twelve yearly subscribers
and check to pay for the same. He
also writes that he only gets the small
sum Of 1910 per month from extras
ETC., but that he will readily contribute
the same to advancelthe interests of the
CIVIL Rights League lately organized
here. His gond example, both in the
interest of the APPEAL and the league

should followed be by many who are
less unfortunate.

The Coloredmen of Georgia have
issued call for state convention to
meet in Macon, Jan. 25th for the pur-
pose of advancing their interests. The
day has passed when the indignities and
outrages heaped upon Colored people
will be tolerated in silence and humble
submission The Colored man now
chooses to exercise his great American
prerogative and kick. Chronic kicking
without true aim is of no avail, but
kicking in the right direction and in the
the way and at the right time will sure
ly avail.

Side by side in the Christian Recorder
of Dec, Goth appear articles from Rev.
c. S. Smith and T. Thomas Fortune.
A careful comparison of the ideas of
these two men, both eminent in their
several spheres. will disclose the differ
ence commonly existing between the
views of clergymen and intelligent lay
men,. c. S. Smith, among the clergy
is rather an isolated charac.
ter, yet he may be regarded as repre-
senting the cast Of ministerial senti-
ment. L. Fortune is among men
prominent in secular life, is also soil
tary. Of strong, penetrating mind and
independent character, he has climbed
out of the rut which confines the major
ity to time worn lines of thinking, and
from a superior eminence views the
field. Fortune is a bold thinker and a
strong man so far as philosophy goes.
But he is not a man of action. What
great thing has Mr.. Fortune done in
the line of ACHIEVEMENTS? He has writ
ten, and writes well, but in what in
stance has he formulated plans and
taken efficient steps to execute any of
his theories. AS an editor, he was COM
paritively success, but can be consid-
cred great only on the principle, that
among the blind, that one-eyed man
is king" He is deficient in business
tact, lacks consistency and steadfastness
of character, but possesses brilancy
and boldness, verging sometimes upon
impudenCe. AS an editor Of the
Christian Recorder he is wholly I'M
qualified. His requirements and YER
satile disposition are just the reverse of
the qualities demanded for a position
requiring SO much strength and firm.
ness of character and mental scope. c.
s. Smith on the other hand, is narrow
and intense. He is man of action and
efficient in his proper sphere. AS
thinker he is a bold and aggressive
