general rule, but generous Zeno

general rule, but generous Zeno
makes no exceptions, he leaves
none of our educated men and
women to fill our pulpits, teach
our schools, edit our newspapers,
but puts them all in durance vile.
According to him, our colleges
and sch h,ols are engaged in tie
laudable work of manufacturing
criminals for the various pr sons
in the country. 1t is the truth
that the prisons of the south are
largely filed with negroes, and
another truth is as plainly app r
ent to Zeno or anyone else whO
cares to investigate it, ia that law
for the negro aid law for e
white man is as widely different
as day and night How many
white men can Zeno remember
who have been punished for the
killing of negroes in the south ?
He can count them on his fiugers
and have fingers to spare; but 10 *
at the countless victims that have
been sacrificed on the altar of
southern hatrel whose greatest
fault was that they were negroes
Zeno knows that Courts of just
ice in most localities are hollow
mockery where the negro is n
cerned; there has been some nota-
BILE exceptions to the general rul ,
but these exceptions were like
angels visits ''feW and far between. "
| will say of this charge as Of the
rest of his efforts to ev I've truth
out of falsehood, tits lie con-
ceived and born in the fertile
imagination of Zeno. IT every
charge in the indictment were
true, how could the negro develop
such a profcie ncy in vice and
crime if he did not have daily
examples from the race to whom
Zeno belongs? There is n, crime
in all the calendar Of crimes that
Zeno can charge to the negro, but
is counterpart can be found in
the white man in a tenfold degree,
.for ways that are dark and tricks
that are vain, the white brother
is peculiar They say "tIme is
money, ''and the wonder is why !
have wasted such a valuable arti-
Gle as time On so worthless an
object as q no, certainly not b.
cause his charges were true, but
because of Zeno's wonderful and
sublime propensities for lying At
traoted my attention, and 1 was
compelled by an irresistible i'm
pulse TO lay this tribute at the feet
of such greatness.

POLICE COURT SIIYSTERS.

Some time ago We called atten-
ton to the fact that the police
court was the rendezvous of a
gang of human commoranis,
whose daily occupation is to drum
up witnesses, manufacture witness
es and testimony in doubtful cases
for class of lawyers who pay lib
orally for this sort of service. The
BEE gave these men notice that
it would 60 for them if they did
stand on these pernicious
practices. We are loaded and al
most ready 10 shoot, now, but we
deem wise and proper to give a
final note OF warning and to say
to these professional shysters and
their employers that an eruption
of mount Vesuvius wont be a
circumstance along side what we
shall fire at them if they continue
In their nefarious work Every
man of them is spotted from prlu-
cipal to agent and We mean busi-
ness. We are going to break up
the shysters if it takes ali summer,
Respectable lawyers don't need to
require any such aids.

THE VAIL OF TIE DISAP.
POINTED.

The machiavelian protest of
the sage of Cedar Hill which ap-
peared in a daily paper published
here, few days ago and in which
he denounces aud aaathfmiees the
recent convention in choice and
clean cut adjectives, when read
between the lines, tell fearful
tale of bitter disappoinlments and
show the writer 10 he in that
frame Ilof mind which Cromwell
was in when Wolsey charged him
to fling away ambition." 1t doe
make difference with a con>id-
cradle distinction when the right
OK s gored. But when things go
wrong a d somebody elses' OK get
hurt, look cut for squalls.
The sage of Cedar Hill declares
with holy horror tn 1T the pro-
ceedings were simply "disgrace
ful' and by way of parenthesis
lnslnuates something about trcach-
cry and bad faith: Was the sage
of Cedar Hill an open candidate
for the suffrages OF the m 10 b.
denounees In such strong term,
or a dark horse waiting to be
struck by Carson's Jersey light
ening or vice versa? Was he not

position he occupied and did be

to hold his chair against all C ,m-
ers?
Ii the convention was a "dis.
graceful m0b'' as the sage of Ce-
dar Hill asserts land he ought to
know for he was there aud took
part in it) is he not particep.
criminiS? and does not his denun-
citation of the proceedings come
with poor grace, since 1t is plain
to be seen that it arises from the
fact that somebody broke faith
with him as be intimates and
played traitor Would the sage
of Cedar Hill care to make public
or have made public for him all
the facts down to the smallest de-
tails i'm connection with the recent
convention and his interest iii the
"percedins" thereof?
We do not care to 60 into de.
tails nor do we intimate that the
sage of Cedar Hill is unwilling t.
do. But We insist that in view oi
the fact that he was on a still hunt
for political Fighting and didn't
get hit, it comes with poor grace
for him to vail at the MN who
elected their choice, for the LII igh-
est position within their gift,
Much that could be said We're bet.

forbear. The tale OF the souI

EDITOR BEE In looking over
you paper, | came across an article
copied from the Chicago TINES and
signed by one Zeno. LIN the article
Zeno attemps to prove that the ne
gro is dying out. He also labors
ardently to make the point that the
negro is not susceptible to the be-
nign influence of education, that
morally he is all unknown quantity
and in regard to religion, a cipher.
For downright falsehood, unblush-
ing effrontery, and ignorance per-
sonifed commend me to Zeno. |
have heard of, and read of some of
the greatest prev aricators the world
has ever known from Annanias,
Baron Munchausen down to Eli
Perkins and Joe Mulhalton, but
Zeno has demonstrated without the
shadow of a doubt his claim 70 the
palm of victory, for monumental
lying, collosal cheek and pure un-
aduiterated gall.
He says "the good old sober and
and staid ante bellum tsuncle" and
''aunty" are now virtually things of
the past, and in their places has
sprung up rowdy, roaming, un-
principled lot of negroes who will
neither dig nor hoe" At this point
/ can locate Zeno, and see through
him as easily as if he were trans
parent. The good old time "uncleD
and "aunty" that Zeno comments
so freely on, were the time servers
of the old regime who said "MaSsa"
and ''Missus" to every white man
and woman they met; these kind,
before the ante-bellum days and
since, were the kind that white
people called "good niggers," but
no sooner does he doff that old
cringing, fawning manner and puts
in his claim for recognition as an
American citizens then doth he in
woke the dire wrath of Zeno and all
of his ilk. You are right they are
passing away and the educated,
refined and cultured negao men aud
women are taking their places, and
for this reason Zeno you get mad,
make wry face and say all man-
ner of things about people in
every way your equal.
Again he breaks forth in the fol.
lowidg hypocritical strain: s.Nobody
who has not lived in the south can
know how sincerely have the south
erners worked for the improvement
of the material and moral condition
Of the negro, and how signally
all these Jealous efforts have
failed--from the sentimentality of
philanthopists to the practical
methods of the southern planter
who will spend hours day after day
teaching him to right" Right here
| take off my hat to Zeno, reverence
for such inventive genius as this
compels my admiration. | pause
before his unlimited greatness i'm
surprise and wonder. Right you
are about the time spent and the
practical" methods used, the
southern planter is nothing if not
"practical.' The arguments used

oUIBBLIyG OVER INTOLERANCE.


"The ChurchmanD makes desperate at
tempt to say something in favor OF the e1clu-
sion of the colored race from the South Caro-
lima Diocesan Convention. We are reluctant
to believe that it has any sympathy with race
intolerance in religion, and infer that It's arti-
fetal excuses for the illibera and UNI Christian
conduct OF the clergy Of that diocese are offered
without much heart and from a vague sense OF
duty to defend the religious communion repre-
scented by it. Ii assumes to discuss after de-
liberate reflection the refusal of a large body
of clergy and laymen to occupy seats in
religious council to which negroes are admitted.
1t remarks that the whole development OF
legislation in the Protestant Episcopal Church
is of character to make such compromise Is
that effected in South Carolina constitutional
1t then proceeds to argue that there are no In
herent rights in the priesthood which entitlo
the Charleston colored clergyman to seat or
q vote in diocesan convention, and adds that
there are always clergymen i'll every diocese
who ale not allowed voice in the proceedings
As each diocese is autonomous with reference
to the membership Of its conventions and as
there are different ordinances In different
doceses, il contends that it does not follow that
in South Carolina anything radical or revolu-
tionary has been done. This is ecclesiastical
pettifoggng. The Charleston negro was regu-
larly installed in parish under diocesan con
troll and fully entitled as matter of night to a
seat in the convention. He was expelled be-
cause he was negro. His white brethren
who professed to be servants OF the same
Master would not sit with him in the conven-
ton. They preferred TO secede in body from
an assembly that was contaminated by the
presence Of a black priest bad matter is
not improved by nuibbling
Equally nconclusgc is The Churchman'"
reasoning tina. the inherent right OF priest to
a goat in a Diocesan Council is not demon
stra,ed by Church history. What is very plain
from the study If the history Of the Church Of
the Apostles and Of the early centuries is that
tolerance was the universal practice, and that
determinations based upon race or color were
not known. The APP stolic commission was
TO preach the GOSPEL to all nations; and the
earliest councils Of the Christian Church were
attended by men Of every race. Neither bishop
