NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. s
su4 81 STRONG ARGuMENTS.7

The appearance Of Hon. Seaborn
Wright. the Georgia orator, at the Nor
NAL School last night as the second
number,o of the Normal lecture course,
added a second triumph to the course
launched successfully a few weeks
ago. Mr.. Wright is a speaker of more
than ordinary depth OF thou>P and
expression and he impressed his audi
ence most profoundly. His talk dealt
with the liquor traffic as dealt with in
Georgia and with the race problem
which has assumed such pro A)rtions
in the country, especially in the South
land. Mr.. Wright held the opinion
that the negro race is an inferior race
and a most impressionable and easily
led race Put them under good influ-
ences, they make good citizens, while
evil influences put them to the bad.
Throughout the discourse Mr.. Wright
was given the most flattering atten-
tion. *
1t was announced last evening that
the lecture by President Southwick,
OF Boston. will be delivered on the
night of the 5th instead Of the 3rd OF
December.
