 We should make up our minds that this is our home,' he continued. "All efforts which may be made to have us remove to some other portion of the world will be unavailing. The move ments in Georgia and Texas whereby It was attempted to make the negro think that 1t would be a good plan if he would be transported back to Africa only show the ignorance of the people | Who participated in them.

 The bishops remarks were followed by loud applause After him the Rev. A. P. Miller was called upon for a speech. He said, referring to the dis bandment of the Wilkins Guard that the best young men in the state should belong to a company of this kind. They should be men of character and the of- ficers would be men of character. Un- less such men as these are secured the colored people should not find fault with their white friends if the company is disbanded.
 In adjourning the meeting President Peaker referred to the new officers of the league and said he was glad to see that there was such harmony among the members.

NEW AND NOT NEW.

l Unless you have visited Lake Sunapee
 what picturesque and lovely place it | is.
 The lake is more than eleven hundred | feet above the sea level, insuring a cli-
 mate cool and delightful, while for seem ic surroundings there is no place in the land which has so diversified land scape This inland sea lies at the foot of several mountains and its waters are as clear and sparkling as a crystal. Its shores are heavily wooded, and at every turn one finds summer residences,
 camp and outing places, and every one
 with an outlook pleasing to the extreme.
 New Workers long since discovered the
 beauties of Lake Sunapee as a vacation
 resort, and among those who have sum-
 mer homes on the shores of Lake Suna-
 pee is the Secretary of State, the Hon.
 John Hay, while the late Col. R. G. Tngersoll and Austin Corbin were Sum
 apee enthusiasts. The drive that leads
 from Burkehaven, Sunapee, Georges,
 Blodgetts, which are but few of the re- sorts bordering on the lake, are every one of them, delightful, and the trip over the lake on board one of the steam boats which ply from Lake Sunapee Station to the numerous landings is re- plete in attractions of most pleasing character. The lake is a popular stamp ing ground for the angler, for there is a great variety and quantity of fish to be found there. Lake Sunapee, like the White Mountains and all of the popular summer resorts, is reached by the Boston & Maine R. R., and the Gen'l Pass'r Dept of the Road at Boston has issued a descriptive handbook of Lake Sunapee which is well worth perusing, for it tells all about the lake in an easy and interesting way. Send for 1t; it takes only two-cent stamp enclosed to above address to get it.
