ENTHUSIASM REIGNED.
Jos. q. WashingtS tSp,aks to
the People of New
Providence.
A Club of seventy-Fve Members Is Or
granized and all Go to Work
In Earnest.

Jos. e. Washington addressed the
people OF New Providence last night
on the great political issues Df the
lay. He was introduced by b. L.
Rice, and made one of the greatest
effor CT his life. A large crowd greet
ed the orator from the Hermitage
district" and paid close attention to
his utterances for two hours. He told
them that he.had not been an idler
in the House OF Congress. He spoke
Of his efforts to secure appropriations
for the Cumberland river improve
ments; the public building for
Clarks, lille, and several other Inn
portant measures. 1t was through his
untiring work that we have our sys-
tem OF the free delivery OF mail In
Clarksville. All this was not made
as boast, but to show that he had
worked for his constituents. He then
hranched Of into the leading issues
OF the Gay, and bundled each In an
able manner. He showed the in
justice of a protective tariff, and
placed himself In line with Cleve-
lands messages and letter Of accept
ance. His scathing arraignment Of
the Republican party for attempting
to pass Federal election lava force
bill-was met with rounds OF ap-
plause from the enthusiastic audi
ence. He appealed to the men "who
had followed the commands OF For
rest, Cheatham, Forbes, and other
lights" to be tlsae to the principles
they then upheld, and keep In line
with the great bulwark OF Southern
liberty-the Democratic party. He
appealed to "the descendants OF those
who fought at Kings Mountain;
who marched again to New Orleans
and hurled Packenham and his Brit
ish regulars back into the Gulf OF
Mexico; whosmote the false Spaniard
at Pensacola; who leaped with
Taylor into the breach at
Monterey, and planted their
standards above the halls of
the Motezumas, and who took part
In the victorit us march from Vera
Cruz to Mexico" He appealed to
such as these to be true to their colors,
true to their teachings and true to
their conscience.
This was one OF the ablest speeches
Mr.. Washington ever made, and his
audience was one OF the most atten-
tive and appreciative that he has
ever addressed. Arrangements are
being made to have a rousing Demo-
cratic club at New Providence.
About seventy-five names have been
enrolled and there are more to FOL.
low. The organization has not vet
been perfected, but will be at near
date. Let all good Democrats bid
them God speed in their commenda.

Scientific Organ Playing.

To the Leaf af-Chronicle.l
1t was with great surprise as well
as pleasure that we witnessed this
morning trial performance on the
organ by Miss Bertha Emery, daugh-
ter of the accomplished organist Of
Trinity church.
The works which this young lady
selected for her efforts were those of
Stainer, the world renowned organist
of st. Paul's Cathedral, London. The
composer designed these pieces as
illustrations Of the present status of
modern organ playing, intentionally
introducing in them all the diff
culties which have to be overcome In
order to become a thoroughly accom-
plished artist, according to the exact
ing standard of the present day.
Our astonishment was excited at
hearing these compositions interpret.
ed with mastery and apparent ease by
young lady not out OF her teens and
indeed barely beyond the age OF
childhood. They were In fact played
not only with mechanical accuracy,
but with an evident appreciation OF
the scientific purpose and artistic ex-
preston intended by the composer.
Such playing is testimony not
only to the soundness OF her school.
ing, which is no more than we ex-
pected from favorite pupil Of Pro.
fessor Emery, but to the inspiration
OF a true artistic temperament on the
part of the artistic herself.
Should she conclude to make music
her profession, we anticipate a very
exalted career for Miss Emery, such
as will render her a source of pride to
this city, In which exclusively she
obtained her training. ID. +. w.

ernor Curtis II. Brogden, is in jail at
Goldsboro for the murder of a ncighbor,
Fab. Sassar, also widely known as far
mer. Both men were magistrates, stew
ards of Methodist church, and mem-
bers of families. for years honorcd in that
section. Brogden, who had tcud with
Sassar, found him i'll his own field at
work and dealt him several terrible
blows upon the head. Two of these
fractured the skull. Sassar recovered
consciousness and retained it until few
hours before his death. Brogden's
brother, the ex-governor was on his.bond
for SIS 900 pending the result of Sassar's S
injuries. The trial will be a notable one.

EFFECTS OF A FORCE BILL. IN
THE SOUTH.

What would be the direct and immedi-
ate effects of a force bill carried into exc
cution in the Southern states? Mr..
Hoke Smith, president of the board of
education of Atlanta, answers this ques-
tion in a brief and sharp article in the
August number of the Forum. After
showing that, in his opinion at least,
the law would be unconstitutional, and
after showing that its expense would be
not less than $40, 100000 for every cleo
tion and would bring into existence at
least $50, 900 new officc-holders, he pro-
ceeds to show that no greater calam-
ity could befall the negro, for
whose benefit, it is argued. such
bill is needed. The development
of the negro depends absolutely upon the
kind feeling which exists between the two
races in the south. The enactment OF a
force bill would at once inspire the ne
groes with an undue attention to poll
llSo, duu tulo, III tulH lie Wouiu luoptS lhS
more emotional of the white population
with less kindly feelings toward the
blacks, and with these results there
would be in the south re-enactmcnt OF
all the occurrences of the reconstruction
period.
This Mr.. Smith regards as a sufficient
argument in itself against even agitation
for another Force bill, but he goes muck
further. He maintains that the indus
trial condition of the negro would be
made materially worse, that he would
become a less Industrious laborer in the
cotton fields, because he then was much
less industrious than he has been since
and that in this way the agriculture
of the South would be seriously impaired
and that the whole country would fee
the commercial depression in consequence
of the social, political, and industria
confusion that Force bill would worl
in the southern states. The facts ant
and figures given by Mr.. Smith are ii
full presentation of the whole southern
argument along every line of though
against even the agitation of such ;
measure.
