BLYDEN TIE RACES ENEMY.
HE ATTEMPs TO SELECT PLACE
FOR THE AMERICAN NEGRO,

There was large audience at
the Church of the Covenant, on
Sunday evening to listen to Mr..
Blyden. 1t was the 73rd Anniver-
Sary of the Americans Colonization
Society. The meeting was presided
over by the Rev. DR.. Hamlin, the
pastor Of the church, who read
the services and Introduced the
speaker Of the evening, Mr.. Ed
ward w. Blyden who delivered
the annual discourse.
Mr., Blyden is from Liberia, and
is a short, thick set colored man.
with rather pleasant face. The
subject of his address was 1.-THE
African problem, and the method
of its sOlutlon," and it was han
died in a manner which indicated
thorough mastery of the ques
ton by the speaker.
He made a brief reference to the
ancient history of the dark cont
nent and told of the many attempts
which had been made by foreign
powers to Subjugate Africa and to
establish modern civilization, and
of the failure of those enterprises.
Indeed said the speaker, it seemed
as though God had several times
been on the point of deliver ng
the country into the hands of some
European power, and had then
changed his mind and resolved
that the deliverance of the coun-
try should be accomplished by it's
own people, and remin led his au,
dience that if this were accomplish
ed it would not be the first time
that God had given a people into
the power of some other people
before allowing them to obtain
their own.
Portugal was just on the point
of making grand effort to subju-
gate Africa when America was
discovered, and the thoughts of
European powers was turned grad
ualIy from Africa to the new CONT
neDt.
With the introduction of the first
slaves into America occurred the
first phase of the African problem.
He then discussed the abolition of
slavery, the education of the ne.
groes, and the rapidly growing
conviction that the two races can
not live in harmony, and said
that the solution of the problem
was in the return Of the negroes to
Africa. He spoke of Liberia as
the garden spot of Western Africa,
and drew a picture of Liberia of
the past and of the present, telling
how great an influence on its civil
ization the negroes who had gone
over from America were exerting.
The digest of the annual report
Of the society was distributed a.
mong the congregation, and shows
that during the past year the re-
celpts of the society had been !

to report Cullom's bill for new test
oath in Utah, in place of the one in the
Edmunds-Tucker act, with the recon-

similar to the Idaho test oath, which has
been sustained by the supreme court.
