Next Tuesday.

Christmas, that most joyous of all
holidays in the years calendar. will
soon be with us. But the day is not
alone a holiday time, season of giving
and taking; it is also one of the mile
stones in mans life, by which he re-
views the past and predicts the future.
In its yearly recurrence he can note
his rise or his fall. Just think, Sixty
Christmases mark the average mans
life. Each one of them seems an epoch.
The day, to sum it up in terse terms,
is ever more or less delight to the un-
selfish, more and more of an incum-
brance and meaningless ceremonial to
the selfish. To all 1t has some bur-
dens. But only to those who fill tiny
stockings by the chimney piece on
Christmas eve, when the truDdle beds
of Oh ristendom are being tumbled In
blissful expectancy of the morn. and
when soft breaths are coming faster and
faster and delicate baby cheeks are
flushing in the anticipating delights o.
dreams, does it come with its full
significance and tells its perfect story
GOD bless the children and may the!
all have a Merry Christmas.

ger for Office, among certain class of
our men, who, while they may be am
bilious, are not necessarily capable or
practically useful. By infusing althirst
for recognition in this class, the Ticks.
burg Herald calculates upon seeing
'ssky high' petitions for Office, from
groveliDg sordid men, whose only
recommendation lies in the fact that
they can control their "crowd." The
Vicksburg Herald knows if the incom-
ing administration were of the principle
of the outgoing this class of men, re-
gardless of color. would be solid and
secure with it, but as it is, the incom.
ing is not at all relating to present in
combents, especially in the distribution
of Federal positions, so if this class can
be melted to apply, it may result in the
bitterest color-preiudice against our
people yet recorded, on principle, that
if colored men OF unquestioned ability
are hated and fraudulently counted out
of everything desirable, what would
be the result of the appointment, or APP
plication for appointment of a set of
men notorious for their lack of ability?
Such as the Vicksburg Herald as
last resort to keep the negro in his
present condition. would so magnify
the negro's strength, as to arouse a
staggering consciousness of the Same
in the useful though sEortsighted
negro that would likely result in that
class of negroes making inordinate de.
mands upon high officials. Such little
mean details Of negro hating seems to
constitute the life work of nine-tenths
of the Southern Democrats. Their
minds as an old writer has said, must
be fashioned somewhat as the plan of a
microscope, which, though it magnifies
an animalcule, can in no wise contain
an elephant. The scope is circumscribed
to that which is insignificant and puny.

Every colored man, married or single,

himself home, if he has not already
done so. There are a great many who
think there is no need of such course

The Following Letter OF Hon. Fred
erick Douglass Explains Itself.
AUGUST Z 1888.

AUGUST 1000.
s. j. GAMBLER; ESQ.,, SIRs--I have
duly received your interesting letter OF
the I'd of August. inquiring IL Presi-
dent Grover Cleveland even invited
tive Mansion, and If 80 invited,
whether we did in fact. dine there, ad-
ding that you have so stated. and that
the statement has been Indignantly de-
MED. You further say, as reason for
making the inquiry, that you do not
want to do President Cleveland or any
one else. wrong. Now, before an
swering your question, allow me to say
that 1 think the question itself re-
markable one to be put by one human
being to another, especially with the
motive that has prompted it. l think
it safe that In no civilized country on
the globe, except our OVID, could such
a question be asked, or such motive
avowed for asking it. Within a year
or two past have travelled in Eng
land. Scotland, Ireland, France,
Switzerland, Italy, Egypt, and Greece.
and dined with people of all these
countries without any intithation of
wrong, either to myself, or Others No
one can deny that the people of Europe
are as fair In complexion and as refined
in manners as President Cleveland, or
as are Americans generally. Long
before the colored man was made a
citizen of this Republic, long before
cOlored men sat as members OF the
United States Congress. President
Lincoln could and did invite me to his
table at the Soldiers Home In Wash
ington. Later on, other Presidents not
less distinguished than President
Cleveland, have invited me to their
grand receptions at the White House.
1t is not unusual to meet with persons
OF different compilations at the Execu.
tive Mansion 1 have met there. In
dians, Chinese, Japans, Turks, and
Europeans, all attending Presidential
receptions. They were not only there
with their distinctive colors and feat
ures, but often in an American cos
tunes, yet so far as l could see, they
were treated with the same civility &C.
corded to other varieties of the human
family. Their presence provoked nc
indignation" and no sense OF
wrong" Pardon this preface. Presi
dent Cleveland never did invite myself
and Mrs. Douglass to dine at the
White House. The Charge has
doubtless arisen from the fact that ht
has repeatedly and over his own sigma.
ture invited us to attend his recep
tions. He has done this without os
tentatiOn, and so far as l know, has
never hinched, or given heed to any o
the vulgar criticisms made upon hi
conduct in this matter.
Respectfully Yours.

It Is little the sign Of wise or good
man to suffer temperance to be trans
gressed in order to purchase the repute
of a generous en- tertainer.
The philosophers trouble Is that he
can give fifty years to emulating life
impartially, life has spent several thous-
and years in shaping his prejudices.
One must be either pious or philo-
sophical, and either say. Lord. Thy
will be donel' or, mature, l accept
thy laws. even though they crush me. ?"
1t Is not until a man becomes rich in
money-and mean for the sake of get
ting more rlches-that he finds out how
little comfort and pleasure and how
very few real friends money will bring
him.

The Alexandria POstm aStershfp.

We are pleased to see that the friends
of the Hon. L. w. Corbett are making
strenuous efforts in the direction of his
appointment to be Postmaster OF the
City of Alexandria, Virginia.
Hon. L. w. Corbett was born in the
City Of Alexandria, December /, 1859,
and is therefore only twenty-nine
years of age. He is graduate of st.
Johns Academy, Of that city. After
completing his stu lies at school. he
turned his attention to the grocery
business, and served for time in
prominent grocery establishment, and
then, in humble way, started in
business for himself on the corner Of
Cameron and Henry Streets. He has
been very successful. and is now classed
as one of the most enterprising mer-
chants in Alexandria.
Mr.. Corbett has done valiant SER
vice for the Republican party in the
city and county of Alexandra. He
was first brought prominently before
the public, politically, during the cam
paign for Corporation officers in the
Spring of 1887. when he was nomina-
ted for Councilman to represent the
Third ward, a ward. by the way,
which had previously been considered
the "banner Democratic ward" of the
city, giving majorities for that party,
ranging from 200 to 400-and by his
skillful and energetic work he was
elected.
In the fall of 1887 the Republicans
of the city and county, recognizing
Mr.. COrbett as gallant, able and
efficient leader, nominated him unani-
mously as their standard-bearer on
the legislative ticket. His first effort
after accepting the nomination was to
effect a complete organization Of the
party. How we'll he succeeded in
repairing the fences" was evidenced
by bis election to the position to which
he asplred, by a majority of 201, al
though having as an opponent the Hon.
Charles E. Stuart. (then Speaker of
the House Of Delegates,) who had
been elected in the two prev ious legisla-
tive canvasses by over go 0 majority.
at the Republican Convention of
the Eighth Congressional District,
held in Manassas In October last, Mr..
Corbett Yves again prominent figure,
and 1t was mainly through his efforts.
and by his nomination, that Mr.. Park
Agnew was unani nously elected as
the Republican candidate for Congress.
Mr.. Agnew. recognizing Mr.. Corbett's
political ability, placed the conduct of
his canvass In Alexandria City and
County under Mr.. CPS control. How
well it was managed Is shown by the
election returns-74 majority in the
city and 242 in the county for the Re-
publican ticket, as against 294 majority
for the Democratic party four years
In the face of the foregoing facts.
and believing that party rewards, II
any, should be bestowed upon those
who stand the brunt of the battle. we
heartily indorse Hon. Lawrence w.
Corbett for the position of Postmaster
of Alexandria City, Va, and c0nscien.
ticusly believe that his appointment
would give general satifaction to all
the people of the city.

THE New York Age which prides
itself upon being unusually correct. in a
recent issue informs its readers that
Key West Florida, is the Freest town
in the North and there il no "Bukk
doing attempted. We have searched
the dictionaries in vain for the pur-
pose of finding out what Bukk doing
means" We give up the search in
despair and trust that our brilliant
contemporary with a prediction for
providing clergymen who 60 into
politics, will lucidate.

MCCANT STEWART is much more
disturbed about Harrlson's Southern
policy than he was about Cleveland's g
attitude towards the colored people of
the South. Stewart has allowed his
imagination to decide what Harrison's
Southern policy will be and calls upon
Hon. Frederick Douglass to protest
against it. 1t seems to us amusing, to
say the least to notice the gall manifes-
ted by this stultitied man.

OUR printer made mess Of our
LEADER last week. He made US say
1--WE are held up as miracle to civiliza-

article where we spoke of flaming
the embers of prejudice" the printer
makes it ''fawning the embers." "Our
cause is as just to-day as it was forty
years ago." is made ''our course" etc.

THE INAUGURATION Of Harrison
and Morton promises to be the grandest
in the history of the country. Every

WE HOLD that if General Harrison
should pursue the same course towards
the colored citizens of this country
that the present administration has,
the Democratic stultided negro would
be stopped from making single COM
plaint.

publican administration succeeds in
giving the lesson it will have done a

calculable.

WHEN the colored would be leaders
make hue and cry about Office, Office,
office. and say little if anything about
their cause, they become objects of
disgust in the eyes of honorable men.

THE Democratic negro lacks princi-
pie. He supported Cleveland simply
because he thought Cleveland would be
elected.

A SANITARY LESSON.

Very little criticism is passed upon the
Birmingham sheriff for the Geplorable
results of his order to FIRE on the mob
that threatened 10 take from his Gus
tody a prisoner to lynch. The loss of
nine or ten lives, perhaps of average
value.-and Gripping many others, was
a terrible ymdication of the law ii was
due to the prevalent leniency OF Off
eials and public sentiment to MODS. If
it marks new departure and de-
cadence of lynch law, the experience
NAV net be without large eompensa-
tions. 1t is believed the lesson has
proven a salutary one TO the Alabama
city. as the military has been with
drawn. and no further disturbance is
looked for. II should not be lost on
the country at large. There are few
localities or times when there is iusti-
fication for resort to other than legal
methods
