THE TWO GLASSES.

TIE Richmond, Va, RELIGIOUS HER.
AID says:
"'What about the Negro problem?'
asks one of our Massach usetts friends.
Well, that problem is big one, and it
covers SO Wild a space and is modified
by so many different conditions that it
is by no means the same problem ev-
erywhere. For instance. one OF our
correspondents writes: -Last summer,
/ spent some weeks near q little village
in Virginia, and then q week in the
country, some twelve u lies from the
village. The problem was amazingly
different in the two localities. The
Negroes near the village were. upon
the whole, as worthless, idle, thievish,
lying vsgabonds as ever worried the
decent people OF any community that
have ever known; those in the coun-
try, only twelve miles away, were
about the best Negroes in the South,
SO far as my knowledge extends"
This observation is true, aud has
been so ever since the first ship-load
of our people were landed in this coun-
try.
The worthless white elements infest
every locality and what to do with
them is the question,
The dissatisfaction that exists among
us relative to tire atment is that the av-
erage white man will discriminate be
tween the bad and the good of his own
people, but insists upon putting us to-
gether and guaging our standard of it-
ness by the class of worthless people
to whom our contemporary refers.
The better class of our people are
as much opposed to this drawback in
our communities as are the better
class Of the white people.
The religious, moral. strsightfor-
ward element of our people are in line
with the upper, right-thinking ele-
ment of the white.
We insist that we shall be recogniz I'D
and orr best elements taken as the
standard rather than the worst.

surrAre For women rn ireland.

Another great gain has been made for woman suffrage in the passage of the Irish local self government bill by the parliament of Great Britain. Mu- nioipal woman suffrage, conferred on English women in 1869, proved so satis- factory that it was extended to the women of Scotland in 1s81 Now, after the experience of generation (29 years). it is extended to the women of Ireland also. Under the new bill single women and widows in Ireland will vote for all officers except members of parliament on substantially the same terms as men. Before this municipal suffrage for wom- en in Ireland was limited to Belfast where they obtained it some years ago through the efforts of Miss Isabella Todd and other Irish women on the oo- casion of the granting of new city charter.
 We congratulate the friends of equal suffrage on this emphatic evidence of the value of municipal woman suffrage. Now, will our friends of the Boston Pilot tell us why women in Dublin and Cork should exercise a right denied to Irish women in Boston? Let us hope that the spectacle of self respecting, public spirited women voting in Ireland may create a change of feeling among their countrymen and countrywomen on this side of the Atlantic.
