SHA LL WE S UCUEED.
The hunch edo who, on Monday
night before last, were present at the
Ist African Baptist church and heard
Rev, Love on the Past, Present
and Future of the Negro, seemed
at that time to have vied with the
Doctor io- the excellent ideas then
expressed, and why not'? It was
trutn and facts in which the whole
theme was framed, and it was ex
hibited by the Lecturer in a bold,
fearless, manly and chrialian-lik“
manner, and it will be proven to us
hs a people in the future, to be the
only herculean lever by which the
race can rise in the scale of
life.
The question now with us: will the
advice then given, be heeded, or
will the Negro seal his own fate by
carelessi e s and indifference. We
hope not. If not, then let ns be up
and doing, for the hour is at band
and delays are dangerous. Let us
arouse ourselves and follow in the
path 'f duty, manhood duty; that
duty which will commend us to the
well wishers of mankind in general.
The union ol our race that was
so eloquently described as neccessa
rv to our success, should not bt
(lowed io fall as seed sown on bad
ground, but should be eagerly, ear
nestly and conscientiously entered
into, with a zeal and deteru illation
to succeed. We are aware that in
our last i-sue, We particularly called
at'eution to the main facts as
presented hv the Doctor in his lec
ture, but that was not nil that was
to be done. This work needs, and
our people’s mind needs a continu
al hammering at, or agitating, until
we can really see that the “work
goes bravelv on.” then the time
will have to cease the talk.
Shall the lace be united and kIihII
they support their own business
enterprises.
VV k take great pleasure in saying
that a thorough k owledge of the
the Negro character—both before
and at'er emaucip ition —satisfies us
ihat this statement is line: the N»—
u r roes will never become anarchi*ts
or socialists. The c »lortd man i>
not a restless man. He has no fai#-
cy for planning and executing com
bines. I'lie colored man is much
inclined to act ept the situation—
certainly, whether as slave or free
man, he has not made .toiuhinations
to ex< rci*e poaer illegally. Left
alone i«e dues oot regard strikes ns
a rem<d v for the misuse of capital.
In this ttie South may teel safe so
far as the, Negro is concerned.
—Nashville American.
I’rof. L M. Kershaw informs ns
that Rev. E K Love, of Savannah,
delivered ime of l lie finest speeches
on the Emancipation celebration
day at Savannah, on Monday of las'
week, that he ever beard debveied
by any one, and that he complete
ly routed the idea of coloted men
voting the Democratic ticket.
I'he idea of colored men vot
ing the Democratic ticket, or lett
ing politics alone, finds no lodging
place in the hearts of the true Ne
gro of this country. It is only
found in the impractical man and
the novitiate.—Herald, Atlanta Ga.
Miss Dottle, of Brooklyn was
pronounr ed to he dead the other <lax

screamed so loud when they tried

had been in a trance, and is now
well and happy again.
