THE CIVIL RIGHTS SUIT.

The Civil rights suit of lawyer
E. M. Hewlett against French
and Harvey, the former ending
In the aquittal of the defendant
and the latter in a discharged jury
unable to agree, show conclusively
the prejudice of white men against
a colored man. The attempt of
the defendants to establish the
fact that Mr.. Hewlett will not
pay for what he orders; that news
papers say that he is not this and
is not that will not be sustained
by the respectable citizens in this
community. Mr.. Hewlett is a
gentleman of high moral charac-
ter and honored and respected in
this community by all classes
of citizens. If the acts OF the
legislature are defective so far as
the making of this law is concern
ed, and if Congress has no power
to legislate against discrimination,
these second class white people
viii attempt afterwhile to prohibit
the colored people from attending
church services. We congratulate
Judge Montgomery on his ruling
ia these cases, although demo-
crat, We think that be was as fair
in his Charge to the jury as he
could be. MIR. Hewlett has the
support of the entire colored
population in bis fights for Civil
rights.

A CORRECTION.
EDITOR OF THE BEE:

EDITOR OF THE BEE:
Sir:
The committee that was ap-
pointed by the Fourth Baptist
church, to investigate the SANDER
GUS rumors rejecting on the char
acter of the pastor of said church,
after reading your report the COM
mittee wish you would corr ect
one part of it. Your paper reads as
though one member of the COM
mittee whose name was not known,
objected to the report. The name
of this person is Charles Harcom,
and he is not member of the COM
mittee, but is a member of said
church. When the vote was Offer
ed to exonerate the pastor from the
slanderOus rumOrs presented by
Cora Pinckney and others, this
same Bro. Charles Harcom, arose
to make the vote unanimous, the
chair then called for all who were
opposed to the resolution, no one
arose. The next resolution:
Whereas, the pastor of the 4th
Baptist church should be yindi-
Gated in the eyes of the law.
Resolved, That a good lawyer
be imployed to prosecute the sland.
erers and would be blackmailers,
and that we at once contribute
and bring the guilty parties to JUS
tice.
This is the part that the brother
filed his objection to. This part
the committee intends to carry out
until the last vestage is sifted out,
and when we get through l think
your paper will have something 10
print.
Mr.. Editor we are sorry to tres
pass on your time and paper, but
we believe that you intend to give
justice to all. We wish to say that
Rev. r. johnson did not preside or
act as moderator at the meeting.
Trustee Geo. Robinson acted DIS
moderator.
Respectfully yours

GREAT SCOTI!!

This has been a season of con-

Negro has been the great eye

Episcopalian, have decided that
the Negro is unfit 10 be placed on
equality with the whites. That
is, religious equality. Th shout

the sanctified Presbyterians aud
the artificial EpiscopaIians, white,
all expect to 60 TO heaven with-
out their color,d brother. aud

there for brother and sister in
white. There must be separate
one according to the doctrine
which has been discussed in these
late religious conventions for the
last few days. GREAT SCOTT
there must be a separate haedes
for these several denominations
or those white people who fall
from grace. What is the world
coming to? The white people
will attemLS next to decrease
Negro babies from being born or
adopt a different mode to bring
these children of Ham into the
world. GREAT SCOTT, what
