COlored Friends.

A token Of appreciation OF his serv-
ioas to the race, Senator Chandler, OF
Nov Hampshire. was recently pre-
,orfAd with q handsome cane by repre-
seDtqtives of the l'ediog colored news
,oners Of the country. The presentation

l,nmittee on Privileges and El9c
tfons. and in addition to Senator Chauo-
7er and the colored editors and friends

eaav for him t0 be 30, because
# was natural. He discussed the
Ivnching problem at some length, say
ING he regretted to see the lynchlng OF
co'orsd men is extending to the North
prn States. ar d that it is not confined to
IVnchipgs for Offenses against women
He advised the eel rred peOI le to organ
iza q committee to Investigate and
make pub!ic the facts connected with al

accusation of the practice. He believ
ed that in time increased enllghten
ment aud the growth OF gen ulne Chris
tianitv would relieve the race from tht
unjust inflictIOn. He also advised th
cOlored race to stand out in peaceabl'
manner for their rights under the Fl
teenth amendment, and no. to alloy
themselves to be di franchised witbOU
continued protest. The right of tt
coored man to vote should be as sscre
