A Colored Reformatory.

The Richmond Times says: The
State IS it debted to the rare good
sense and philanthropy Of colored
mar, John II Smyth. for the insu'
gurstion of movement to tstabl sh
a colored reformstory, the value OF
which il is needless TO assert. The
initial steps taken some time ago
have resulted in commendsble pro-
gress along approved lines, so that
todsy the old Carter farm. two miles
from H 4nover Court House, is q home
for seven formerly unruly colored
urchius. with Accommodations for
two dozen more President Smyth,
who is intelligent far beyond the
average man of either race, is train
ing these boys in all the relations of
life. Manual labor gives them exer.
else and teaches them to work; in
struction in the text books is a fes
ture of their training. They are
taught the principles of true polite
ness, and, in word, are receiving a
training that is probably far superior
to that received by a public school
pupil. But for this institution these
boys would be confined in the peni-
tentisry, where the associations would
tend to make them hardened crimi'
nails.
President Smyth has had the honor
OF entertaining Gov. Tyler, and
Messrs. Harmon and Chestermsn, OF
the Penitentlsry Board, who spent a
day at the institution. The officials
we're greatly pleased with the man
ner in which the reformatory is being
conducted.
THEIR GOOD MANNERS.
d" Smyth is training up the boys
in the way they should CO. said the
Governor last evening. Their man.
uers are not neglected in the general
scheme Of education which has been
adopted. We saw the youths at din
ner, and it was pleasure to watch
them. Each has an appropriate word
of grace to say as a prelude to the
meal, and at the conclusion their
knives and forks are placed according
to the rules of etiquette
"Ab)ut the time President Smyth
took hold of the scheme be went
North. aud Coils P Huntington, the
wealthy railroad and shipbuildiug
msgnste, was one of those who be
came interested in the scheme. At
that time Smyth had purchased 300
acres of land, for which he is still
struggling to psy, but with bright
prospects of success. Mr.. Hunting
ton bought l,5O0 acres of land ad'
joining Smyth's original purchase
aud this will, it is altogether likely
be decided over to the president ot the
reform story very shortly. Mr.. Hunt,
inetou expected to visit Virginia and
the Hanover Institution about the
last of this month. go
"It is probable tho Legislature will
be asked to put the COlored Reforms
tory on the same footing with the
Laurel Reformatory. for white
youths"

Labor is Reported.
Information Sent to Washington
What Mr.. Rice Saw In Homo
lulu and Yokohama.

WASHINGTON, Jan. l3.-The re
ceipt OF a report from Commissioned
OF Labor W. NJ. Rice, who, in Yoke.
hama, found there was being rushed
into Hawaii by every steamer which
was leaving Oriental ports contract Ia
borers, and that the total of those who
are under order by Hawaiian planters
was 5000, has had the effect OF making
the committees OF the Senate and
House take up and consider at once
the Perkins-Barham bill extending
over the islands the labor and exclu.
sion laws OF the United States.
The information came to a Senator
and a Representative in a letter from
Rice at Yokohama. which set forth
that while in Hawaii they found there
had been permits issued for 5000 cool.
les, and upon arrival In Japan he dis.
covered that men were being rushed
forward to get them into the country
before July LIST. Rice reported that
several contract labor companies OF
Japan were sending laborers as fast
as they could be secured. Commits
sioner Powderly also reported that
confidential information had come that
$50 Italians were under contract with
Hawaiian planters and were being
sent forward at once.
As soon as this letter came to Sen
ator Perkins he polled the Senate Com
mittee on Education and Labor and
found that a majority was in favor OF
immediate action and that the bill
would be taken up and pressed for ac-
tion Immediately.
In the House Barham went 20 Chair
man Gardner of the Committee on La
Dor, and after stating the case was
authorized to write a favorable report
upon the bill and was assured 1t would
be brought in and pressed immediate
ly. This would indicate that the laws
may be put into execution before the
end OF the month.
