AN INJURY HAS BEEN DONE
WHICH IT WILL REQUIRE SEVERAL
YEARS TO EFFAcE.

Fred DOuglass's Lecture Taught Negroes
to Cherish Hatred and Auimosity To-
wards tho white People with whom
Their Lot Is Cast.
81 feel very much disappointed at the
result Of my attendance at the lecture
delivered by Mr.. Douglass on Wednes-
day night, remarked citizen who was
present, to an EVENING JOURNAL reporter
this morning. 81 had had quite an
ideal conception of the man, and re-
garded him as having much ability and
wide experience, and as a man who
would give us a philosophical view Of
the particular questions touching the
welfare of the whole country. This
ideal was shattered from the beginning,
and II the address had been delivered
during the heat of a campaign, it would
have been regarded as . political
harangue to excite the worst prejudices
of the races.
LAS q citizen Of the state. was
pleased, before the lecture, to find that
the chief justice would introduce the
lecturer, because / considered it a proper
respect to show to the representative of
race for whom had always had warm
interest in and kindly affection, and a
belief in their ultimate advancement.
But this was changed, however before
the lecture was over, because / found
that Mr. Douglass had arraigned the
whole Southern people, without excep-
tion, as liars, periurers and murderers,
and that the reasons he gave for this
ARA gnment were such as even trTro in
argument would not have advanced.
"The people of his own race who at
tended were the most advanced and self
respecting of their kind in our commu
nifty, and this man, whom they regarded
as their leader said no word to then
which would teach them to do otherwise
than cherish hatred and animosity
towards the white people with whom
their lot is indissolubly cast.
"My own feeling, after sitting through
this lecture, was that an injury had been
done TO this community which it would
require several years to effacs. II was a
small matter that most of Mr.. Douglass
audience had attended with the expecta-
tion of hearing an address upon some
more congenial subject than that Of rape
and Illicit intercourse, compared with whai
the thoughtful ones most certainly have
felt namely, the harm he had done tC
the cause and advancement of his raci
in our midst. The address could mo-
have been q fair sample Of the spirit
which Mr.. Douglass has displayed In bis
long public service, but it must hav'
been made up of the assertions of mar
whose life is all behind him and who II
approaching the age when the strength
of his intellect is thing of the past.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 14.-Senat0r
Sherman had conference with
Secretary Carlisle yesterday after.
noon about the proposed issue of
bonds. Senator Sherman is as
earDest now in his advocacy of an
issne Of bonds as he was during the
Harrison administration when he
urged Secretary Foster to issue
bonds. whether President Harrison
objected or not. Senator Sherman's
talk probably had no greater effect
than to strengthen Mr.. Carlisle's
views in favor of bond issue.
Secretary Carlisle has now roach
ed the stage where he does not
want to wait for congress to act in
the matter ofan issue of bonds. He
ia ready to assume the responsible.
ty Of an Issue himself l learned
from an official of the treasury de
partment today that the proposed
bonds had already been engraved
and that the issue could be made
within few days after it was de
termined to do so. There are many
who predict that an issue of bonds
will be put on the market within
the next three weeks. They will be
8 per cents-but Mr.. Carlisle ex-
poets to sell them atsuch u premium
as to make them really 3 per ceuts
