CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL.

The letter Of DR.. w. A. War
field, to the Editor OF The Bee last
week urging the Importance of a
chiidren's hospital for colored chill
dren and the Importance of the ap-
Dointment Of colored nurses are
two necessary items in human
progress, which should be advocat-
ed by the colored churches. The
colored churches can 10 something
for humanity if they are sincere in
their Christian religion. Such able
divines as Drs. Grimke, Walter
Brooks, Norman, Clair, Howard,
Kicks, Seaton, Brown, Waldron,
TAYLOR, Lee and others are in a
position to arouse the authorities to
a sense of duty if they will. AS
DR.. Warheld has rightly said, that
the only place for colored children
under the ages of eighteen months
is given them by him at the Freed
mems Hospital, of which he is sur
geon-in-chief. Instead of having
so much politics in church, let the
colored divines ask for a children S
hospital for the colored children
and the appointment of a few col
ored nurses to visit the homes OF
colored people and see if their chill
dred are in need of medical assist
ance. Such hospital is needed,
says DR.. Warheld. Let us all work
to this end.

and unintentionally, no
doubt. DR.. Thirkield, in that one
clause, in a measure, negated his
salary recommendation. Salaries
at Howard are rediculOusly low
However, taking the report in its
entirety, it is a splendid setting
forth of Howard's progress and
Howard's needs, and it is hoped
that the report viii not only invite
the serious consideration of the In
terror Department, but its favorable
consideration. We congratulate DR.
Th;rkield upon his annual report.

"WISDOM'S CALL. "

The subject of a new book by
Rev. Sutton E. Griggs, of Nash
vile, Tenn, is "Wisdom's Call. %
Rev, Griggs is an author of ability,
and this new book, like his other
books, will meet with popular de-
mand. "Wisdom's Call" deals with
the South, and his remarkable pre-
sentation of ills in the South dur
ing the civil war, and how to deal
with the Negro, the author discuss
es philosophically every condition.
This book ought to be in the hands
Of every colored American. Rev.
Griggs is fearless in his discussions
and rightly defends Southern Ne
groes against so many diabolical
perpetrated upon them.

INSPIRING CAREERS.

There have been few men who
have attained political prominence
in this country but whose roads to
success have been strewn with bro
ken promises, even though unin-
territorial, and in whose wake there
lies recollections of reconciling
right principle with mere policy.
There have been but few Colored
men who have attained political
prominence who have not, immedi-
ately upon assuming that promi-
nence, become inflated with the
idea that the halo of superiority
was their exclusive property. The
past of James c. Napier, whose
signature our currency bears, is d
past unmarried by a single question
able act, untarnished by a single
broken promise, undisturbed by a
single evil thought Perhaps it is
inelegant to use the expression, but
it is nevertheless expressive of the
meaning desired to be conveyed to
say that the life of Mr.. Napier is,
and ever has been, as ''clean as a
hounds tooth. There is some
thing unusually attractive in Mr..
Napier'S life. His unostentatiouS-
ness, his beautiful devotion to home
ties, his gentleness Of manner, and
his very cOnsiderateness of others
requires but a moments reflection
to convince that these are all
worthy of emulation. A lawyer, a
banker, a careful, honest, consider
ate business man, he has COntribut-
ed much to the uplift of his race
far more than his retiring DISPOSE
ton would suggest. He does not
move through life with the noisy
retinue of bluster and pompOus-
ness, but rather with effective gen
tleness, sincerity and modeSty as
his boon companions. There are
few men of his race his equal
there are none his superior. His
life furnishes the conclusive proof
that purity and simplicity are no
handicapS to success, and that it is
an erroneous belief that mixing
with the vulgar rabble upon terms
of equality is a requisite for po-
litiCal success. Were we called
upon to select men after whose
lives we would ask that the young
pattern theirs, we know of none.
whose lives, whose careers embod-.
les more of the perfections proper
ly associated with splendid man.
hood than the upright, clear-vis-
ioned, and able James c. Napier.

DIR. THIRKIELD'S REPORT.

The annual report OF DR.. Thir-
kjeld. for Howard University. Just
made to the Secretary of the In
terror, is one Of the strongest, most
interesting. and favorable reports
President Thirkield has ever penned
during his presidency of Howard.
The vigorous manner in which he
makes his recommendations shows
that the president is deeply inter
csted in the future Of Howard Uni
versity. This newspaper, at times,
has been called upon to differ rad
ically with President ThTlield re-
garding some Of his policies, and
we may differ with him again, but
we are in hearty accord With him
as to his annual report. In pre-
senting the needs of the university,
there was no lost motion nor any
quibbling Of words to use, but he
went direct at the subject in a
strong. vigorous and conclusive
manner. What he says about the
School OF Agriculture is we'll said,
and properly said. If there is a
single thing in his report we
would take exceptions to it was
that part referring to salaries.
While President Thirkield urges,
and recommends an increased ap-
preparation for salaries of profes-
sOrs and instructors, we think he
should have made his recommenda-
tons stronger, and not have weak
cred his recommendation by stat
ing the salaries now paid are equal
to those available in many inStitu-
tons of like character" Uncon-
