The Title Of "Mrs. 81
From London It'd Bits.

From London It'd Bits.
The title of Mrs. was in olden time APP
piled to unmarried as we'll as to married
women and to young as well as to old.
Sir Walter Scott spoke of Joanna (un>
married) as Mrs. Joanna Baillie. Al
though it was not, perhaps, SO universal
to address quite Young children, as it
was those over 81, by the title of Mrs..
yet it was frequently done. The most
ludicrous example of this occurs in the
register of burials for the parish of St.
Margaret, Westminster. The burial of
Millions second wife and that of his in
FAINT daughter, named after her, who
died at the age of five months, are both
recorded in that register, the name in
each case being entered as I'M RS. Kath-
erin Milton" without any mark of dis
tinction save the letter "C'' for "child"
after the second name Even in the
reign of George H., as we read in "Pope's
Eetters," unmarried ladies used to be
styled Mrs.

The President and the color.a p..v,c.

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
have read carefully the extensive notice
published in today's issue Of Rev. W. j. John
sons sermon upon the results % the late cleo
ton. Rev. johnson is a learned divine and I
always enjoy his style, even when cannot
agree with the argument advanced in his theo-
logical discourses. To the one in point his
chief blunder is his unjust criticism u Presi-
dent Harrison in his treatment of the question
OF southern eutrsges. In this matter the
colored man should be true TO himself then he
can be false to no one.
Southern outrages against the negro have
waKed apace under every administration since
emancipation. Each succeeding administration
has condemned the same and vet has admitted
its inability, under the law. TO interfere, unless
certain contingencies which the offending
parties studiously guard against should arise
When delegation of colored men laid the
grievances of our people in the south before
President Harrison he asked to be furnished
with such data relating 20 the matter as he
might lay before Congress in special message.
TO the end that public sentiment against such
outrages might be created.
Rev. johnson blames the President for not
doing what he could not do, but gives him no
credit for doing what he could in our behalf
namely, advocating in season and out Of season
the passage Of an election law which would in
sure TO white aud black the country over q
fair ballot. Even the wayfaring man will
admit that, with fair ballot in the south. the
| colored nan could protect himself against the
outrages daily committed against him there.
President Harrison's position on the So
called force bil'' probably lost him re-elec-
ton. for it kept the south solid and lost him
many votes in the north. Ii is in bad grace for
divine who is not a predestinarisn TO damn Q
friend for not doing what he has already been
damned for doing his utmost TO do.
IL the colored people do not speak out In tho
defense of friend in q case like this they can
not hope 10 win favor with President-eIect
Cleveland or any other fair-minded man who
loves fidelity and spurns ingratitude 10 ones
friend. FAM PLAY.
