from virtue; that truth may triumph over error;
that tyranny and oppression may no longer afflict
any humon being that sterling honesty may
characterize all business transactions: that the
people may submit TO righteous laws, and sec
to II that they rgheously administered, and
that pure and undecided religion may everywhere
prevail For all this pray, and for more than
this we pray, when in sincerity and truth we
look up to God. our heavenly Father. and say:
"rhy Kingdom come" And when that kingdom
in all its fullncss there
Jesus shall reign wherc'er tho sun
Does his successive Journeys run:
His Kingdom stretch from shore to shore,
Till moons shall wax and wanc more.
SPEED THE DAY.
Can Christians do anything TO hasten the
coming OF this kingdom? This is practical
question. We say: Speed the day." hut are VIC
doing nything to speed it? That great and holy
man, jonathan Edwards says: II had great
lougings for the Advancement OF Christ's Kingdom
in the world. and my secret prayers used to he
taken up, in great part, with IT, ! used to be
eager TO read public news letters. mainly to SEQ
IT ! could not find some news favorable TO the
interest OF religion in the world
Such conduct on tho part of Edwards was truly
Christian We all approve it, but how many of
us initiate it? How many OF us search the public
press for this kind of news! How many Of us
give TO this subject a prominent place in our
daily prapers? Ii we arc subjects Of this glorious
| King, our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, and
| il We are loyal members OF Ills kingdom, We
might be active, energetic, prayerful persons,
| and the interest OF Chrst's kingdom should he
| our chief concern, Jesus says that no man hav.
| ing put his hand to the plough. and looking
back. is fit for tho kingdom Of God, which
means that all protesting Christians should be
| consccrated Christians and il we be consccratcd
| Christians We will he both praying and working
| for Christians. Those who can preach the gospel
| with their lips ought TO do it, and all Christians
have II in their power to preach the gospel by
| their lives.
| Blessed are the pure in heart. for they shall
| sec God. Blessed are the poor in spirit. for
| theirs is the kingdom Of heaven. Blessed are
| they which are prosecuted for righteousness

This is in line with the advice OF
this paper from time to time TO tue.
colored people. More than year ago
4 it was reported to The Times that
some of the respectable colored men
Of this community were distressed anu 1
discouraged because of some remarks
of ours on the negro question. Wherc-
upon we took! occasion to publish, 4 Sc
ries OF articles in which we told the
colored people that they had a chance
to organize and maintain a refined So
ciety for themselves within their own
race Not only SO. but we expressed
the opinion that it was their houndeh
duty 10 do so. There are respectable
colorcd men and women in Richmond
who are self-respecting and who are
enaeayorins TO improve their condition.
and we said to these that 1t was thelr
duty TO make a social circle for them
selves and establish rules OF moraiity
and refinement for its government, ana
draw the line against the depraved,
the vicious and the mean. We SAD
that in this way they would not only
improve themselves, but they would
also establish a standard and encour-
age others to measure up to It. VIC
have reason to believe that such So
cial circle has been formed among the
colored people Of Richmond. and we
believe that it is having q good in
f1uence.
All sensible colored men in the South
know that the advice which Governor
Aycock has given them, and that the
advice which the Richmond Times mas
given them on this subject, is good adj
vice and friendly advice, because
Southern men understand the situa-
ton and because Southern men gre
the best friends of the negro. The
black man knows where his friends
are and who they are. The black man
knows that there is more friendship
for him in Virginia than in New York.
The best proof CT this is that he has
continued to live here. The fact that
there are more negroes in Virginia to-
day than there were ten years ago
carries its own significance
Let all colored men and women who
desire to move in good society read
the address Of Governor Aycock and
turn it to practical account

A Republicans View.

Editor of The Times:
Sir,-As you are giving some OF your
space to the views of corresoo ,d';nts, a.
low me TO say that the members OF our
convention have had ample opportunities
to know the wishes and needs of the peo-
ple of Virginia They have been elected
to apply remedies for evils that all Know
have existed for thirty years. bel,sye
there are enough good and honest Vlr-
ginians in that convention to dominate II,
and | believe they will do 1t. All inc
trouble from the negro has come from
mean, vicious white men. acting on him.
to use him for Office, or to get from nun
his few dollars. Eliminate this tr'uole
and you have solved the negro prop!ein.
Take the illiterate negro and the litter
ate white man out of politics by dist an
chising them, and you will have removed
them from the wiles and Vaccinations q
bad men. 1 would advise this not to de-
grade that class of voters nor from aliv
spienetic spite or prejudice, but as a posi-
tive boon to them. say put both classes
white and black. on the same plane. Lei
us have no sneaking evasons nor oEen
doors to fraud in elections. WHAT pc
culiar sanctlty is there about an 1lterate,
vicious white man more than the same
kind of black man, ready to sell his vote
Tor drink of whiskey and dollar? W.
gln:a until the convention of 1881. How.
does the .4me since compare with the era
before?
The negro now needs to be .avei fro;n
his sloppy friends. No true frie III Z the
negro will seek to place him in position
where he will inevitably be hurt. TO
excite in him hopes and aspirations that
can never be realized is worse than Iol-
~. To put him in competition with the
white man is crime against divine law.
It is playing loaded dice on a. simple
minded victim. Now, lest some may
think I am rrejudiced. VIII say am q

that my fathers were slave owners IN
