Dear Mr.. Clotheshorse man: I have
admired you ever so much although al
ready engaged to freak, and l ven.
ture to assure you. that am fully con-
vinced you are entitled to the palm IN
your observations regarding the Hon.
Whitelaw Reid and his knee breeches.
note that you have studiously avoid.
ed using the words "knee breeches. Sc
but have used synonomous terms, as
follows:
"Chipped pants"
Chopped pantaloons
Sawed off pants &
Carved pants"
have been wondering II you have
not reached the end Of your string,
and will yet have to refer to Mr.. Reid
and his ydsit to the king as one who
appeared in knee breeches, unless you
repeat the terms you have already
used. If you can coin any other terms
my guess. Yours,
RACHEL.
Rachel, you miss your guess. We still

on his high horse about the police

that he believed he had the right to ap-

he saw 1T to I'LL such offices, II being
the prerogative OF the Council TO ap.

The time has come when the black
man must depend upon himself for pro-
tectlon," says Bishop Alexander Wal
ters, a negro divine Of some eminence.
1t may be, but 1t will be difficult to
persuade the colored brethren at elec-
ton time that the Republican party is
not the only source Of salvation for the
black race, and that, though many
times deceived, the negroes are not
some day to realize at least few Of
the promises which have long been
made them. And it is doubtful If any
considerable number Of colored citl-
zens will take permanent heed of the
Bishops words. They have looked to
the Republican party for so long that,
regardless of changes in the principles
Of that organization or its attitude to-
ward negroes, they will seek protec-
tion nowhere else 1t is highly prob
able, indeed, that Bishop Walters
himself on election day will cast his
vote along with the others of his race,
paying a mark of respect to the mem
ory of Lincoln, but protecting
themselves, In these latter days, not

 Do you notice how popular robes are becoming?
