WOLF RUN.

WOLF RUN, March 15-The follow
ing is an article that appeared in the
New York World recently-"Rev.
Charles Boum a white minister and
said 10 be Virginian by birth. Has
been granted a marriage license at
Boston, to wed Lizzie Lamson, a
Negress said to have been born in
Newborn, N. G. A white Minister
will officiate at the marriage"-Ye
God's-can such thing be possible
in the City of Daniel Webster, Rufus
Choaste, and Fanesil Hall.
Can it be here in the Twentieth
Century of Christian civilization, and
in city that vaunts itself the
American Athens of learning, that
a preacher, and a Southern man born
in Virginia, the mother of States and
Statesman, is permitted to trans
gress every sense OF personal honor
and pride, to satisfy a crazed mania
for some new found lust?
What is there in the air, water, soil
or Boston surroundings that poisons
the minds of Virginians who go there
to preach, and transforms them from
Ambassadors of righteousness to
senseless and sensuous skunks? Has
Social equality and ethical liberty
destroyed the patriotism of men in
the grand Old Bay State, that they
will allow such depraved conduct in
their most cultured city as the we'd
ding of a bean-eating Handicapped
babboon, to sour smelling South
ern Senegambian? We have searched
the unabridged dictionary, but there
is no ADEQUATE potential mental ex-
IL h. h.
to picture the moral meanneSs of
such man.
In Gods name what is the matter
with the people of Boston that they
allow this sensuous shame, this pu-
trid puvert, to enact this diabolical
deed against human betterment with
in their classic bounds? We have
nothing against the black man, we
have given him the restraining in
fiuence of religion and the elevating
force of education, employed moral
suasion, and occasionally when we
could do no otherwise we have taken
him out and hung him to a limb. We
do not believe in mixing the races.
We believe that next to slavery and
next to the aggravated elevation of
a slave race into full political powers
without the restraining saving grace
of some years of probationary pre-
paration, the most damning infamy
ever prepertated since the dawn of
time, has been the devil-hatched hell
spawned theory of Social equality"
Any white woman who marries
negroe man ought to be sent to the
pen for life, and any white man who
chooses as the mother of his chill
dren and the companion of his head
and bosom a flat-nosed she-male
coon, ought to be fumigated with
skunk cologne, soaked over night in
decoction of turpentine and sufuric
acid, and carried to the center of
Africa and set on fire. There is not
a full blooded white man in the
United States of America, that has
spark of manhood or honor in him,
that would want to see matrimonial
alliance of his son or daughter to a
Seos, - the nrtNte n a1ribals ~

thlshbone of his less powerful neigh

The laws ought to take such unions
in hand and prohibit them as it would
