Jersey City, n. J. Special think
the verdict of all those who have ever
had the honor and the privilege of be
ing the guest of Hon. George Il. White
our lone, but not lonely representative
in Congress will be that he is most con-
genial host, and generous feeder.
l am sure that the dozen gentlemen
who were his guests Dec. 30th, last at
dinner at Gray's famous hostelry, will
not soon forget the occasion or the
man. The dinner was given in the
large dining hall on the second floor
front and a few minutes after to

a very important point (viz9 That
there has never been test by the Su
preme Court of the United States of the
coDstitutionality of the amendments 10

ing by the lawyers present, all of
whom maintained with singular
unanimlty that proper test of these
amendments would discover that they
are as sound in principle as any other
portion Of the Constitution. The four
tenth article TO the Constitution was
shown to contain the germ of the law
upon which it is believed a successful
Test could be made, VIZ; "All persons
born Or naturalized in the United
and subject to the Jurisdiction thereof,
are citizens of the United States, and of
the State wherein they reside, etc., etc.
lt was maIntai' d that the Negro had
| heretofore sought 10 have this clause
interpreted 50 that it would apply to
him as 4 egrO and not to him as
''citizen" of the United States, and
that the courts very promptly decided
against him, when he attempted to sc
cure bis rights, by invoking the law to
protect him as a Negro citizen rather
than as an American citizen. It was a
very fine point and may come in handy
some day.
Governor PInchback told some IN
side history Ofthe reconstruction period
and some of his experiences as Govern.
or of the Pelican State, which set the
table on roar, and Attorney McGhee
cracked few Western jokes that pro-
duced much laughter and apt lause
Mr. McGhee is an inImitable wit, and
bears striking resemblance to Ham
let. His elOquence is fervid and his
manner engaging as a speaker HIS
humOr is as dry as bottle of Mumm's
Extra, after it has been seen a few
times.
The good and bad points OF John M.
Langston were next discussed. Mr..
Jesse Lawson, who is dogmatic and
loyal friend came to the rescue of his
friend and patron, aud like q certsin
Grecian wrestler, who was able by his
eloquence, TO convince the spectators
after he had been tbro wn, that he had
not been thrown, went after Mr. Lang
ston's critics so vigorously and elo-
quently, that they were all convinced
that he was one Of the noblest Romans
OF African descent, that ever drew
lance; and so he was. John M. Lang
ston was human, ard therefore faIlible.
He was courageous, loyal to his friends
and the Idol OF the yonpg men of his
day and time, who do well to cherish
his memory and to defend his good
name with all the energy of their ma
lures. The criticisms made of his pub
Tic life were friendly and his transcend.
ant ability, genius and scholarship were
admitted by all.
