Atlanta, May 10.—-The pro eelings
of the Huptiai convention have b«en
marked by such a great degree of har-
scarcely a ripple having sprung
up to give even a tinge ot flavor to the
meetings, that when, upon nieportof

every eye was turned upon the speaker,
fin.l with breathless attention every

This was the cause of the interrnp-
tion : Rev. C. O. Brown, of South Caro-

tained the following sentences:
If it be true that we have to give ac-

report that deals with the question of
work among the negroes will be dnina-

great assize. The writer of the report
snows considerable ingenuity, and has
easily made it possible lor us who are
doing nothing for the negroes to flatter
ourselves over the fact that we are re

us how much the negroes gained by
being made slaves ; bow they rose grad

doubted the truth of that statement. I
have never found the man who did not
believe that under the providence of
God, slavery, southern slavery, had
proved to be a benefit to the enslaved
race. They were brought to this country
in an absolutely barburic state, and iu
relation which they sustained to the
white people of the south, they took on
a great measure of the civilization of the
white people. They had opportunities
for religious instruction, aud when the
day of emancipation came—I thank God
ties were aroused ami new tastes and

melodies banished from their cabin
homes the voodooisui of the fatherlaud.
To this is added what our convention
should not allow to go uiichallenge 1,
viz., a statement of what our state gov
ernment are doing for the negroes iu the
way of education. The fact that a part
of the public taxes is expended in their
behalf can nexer answer the question,
what are Baptist churches doing for the
.salvation of the negroes?
The third paragraph of the report
jilt’s tlie rendition of the negro before
r.s in a very good light. It seems ac-
•cordiiig to the report, that they suffer
tioiii some few dprtriual errors, and
many of their jireachers are uot exactly
pr.-jwred to preach, but even with this,
they are rapidly being evangelized.
Tnoir ratio of church membership is
si i to be greater than ours, aud they
are very well supplied with houses of
wor.-hip. The rejiort co-. es to a mild
aud modest close by sayi 'g if men and
m ney c.mld lie found a plentiful liur-
ve t would be reaped from this field;
but there is no jiroiuise that one of the
secreturiis is going to take the field, or
that anvtning at all will be doue more
than lias been done, which amounts vir
tually to not king.
Turning aside now from the survey of
u rejiort which only helps us all to keep

And to stay this tide of corruption

lining? Here and there iu a Christian
home a lit gro is taught about God; here
mid there some faithful one may have a

pastor may give a spare hour to a ser

denomination and the denomination

to take to—we are doing almost nothing

an institute, a sort of anauiolous aggre-
gatton that cannot be explained by re-
ltrring to a likeness of auythiug in
heaven or on eartu, or iu the waters an

Continuing, Mr. Brown charges
great deal of the existing '.rouble to the
fact that their jireachers are uot proper

of education; and suggests that instead

Mr. Brown closed his report with the
rvnuirk that "the negroes are going to
the dojjs and the devil.’
Then it was that Dr. Hawthorne,
whose voice is never silent when his
t'hureh or his people are assailed, said

London, May 9.—Quite a serious riot

The union men attacked him Saturday
evening as he was leaving his work and

the police.
Tue rioters then tnrned their atten

of stones at them. A number of police
men were struck by the missies and in

Stookdale took to his heels, and ran to
his home. The mob was in strong force
and finding that Stookdale had tem
porarily escaped them, rushed to colliery
and smashed the engiue house to
pieces.
The houses of officials were next at
tacked and torn to the ground. The
occupants, however, had been warned
in time, and made their escape before
the rioters rushed through.
Another house, in which an official of
the mine resided, was set on fire and
burned. Satisfied for the time being,
with the destruction they had wrought,
the rioters withdrew.
Sunday, however, the mob gathered

Omaha,Neb.,May 9.—Bishop Fowlei
of San Francisco-presided the fifth dnv
of the Method'sfc General Conference.
The devotional exercises of the morning
were led by Rev. W. McDonald, a
colored brother of Mississippi.
Dr. Bristol of Chicago called for the
order of the day, which was the report
of Bishop Taylor of Africa.
Bishop Taylor of Africa then came
forward and was greeted with great
applause. He said the evangelization of
Africa was a stupendous work. A part
of the Continent of Africa was poverty
stricken by natnre on account of the
unproductiveness of the country in its
present state. The natives were unable
to make use of eveu the resources that
were within their reach. They needed
brain cultnre and hand culture. With
out hand cultnre they would starve on
their barren plains. The.education of
the head aud hand must be carried for
ward simultaneously in Africa. It
would not do to wait until the heathen
bad grown up in ignorance and sin..
Someone requested Bishop Taylor to
iresent the little colored girl that be had
jrought to America with him to the
conference. The child was brought for
ward and placed npon the presiding of
ficers desk. The conference was thrilled
with the picture presented and a wave
of applause filled the house. Bishop Bow
man stepped forward and took the little
waif by the hand. The child looked at
him innocently and smiled. Theaudieuce
again broke out in applause.
" What is her name?” called out a del
egate.
"We call her Diana,” said Bishop
Tavlor.
How old is she?” called another.
She is about 3 years old, ” replied the
Bishop, "and nine months ago site was a
heathen child. She has learned to talk
English in that short tim\ and she has
gotten into the General Conference,
txxv” added Bishop Tapior, aud the au
dience laughed. The dimnnitive black
youngster looked out in great wonder
ment at the sea of white faces.

Washington. May 10.—At the re
quest of Mr. Blonut, the president has
appointed Colonel John W. Lindsey, of
Irwinton, Ga., oa the board of visitors
for West Point, iu company with Mr.
Blount.
A committee from Rome, Ga.. made

the services of an engineer to make a

committee are now happy on their way

The expenses of the present congress,
incident to the growth of the country,
added to the extravagance of the last
congress, will almost surely cause a de
ficit in the treasury next year. Unless
additional reveuues are raised there will
not be enough cash available to run the
government. There will be a most op
portune time for the democracy to alter
the system. An income tux will fill an
important niche.
A Preacher's Chance of Faith.
Mason City, la., May 9.—Religious

city. He departed with a letter to
Bishop Hennessy of Dubuque, who will
furnish him the neceesary credentials to
enter the order. He is highly educated,
and says that his mind has been leading
him to take this step for some time. He
is a Swiss, and is a fluent speaker iu
several languages.

To Exclude Convict Labor.
Washington, May 9.—An important
bill, designed to prevent tbe employ
ment on public works of prison or con
vict labor, or the products of such la
bor, has been reported to the house from
the labor committee by Representative
Davis. The bill is made effective by
tbe inclusion iu it of the following pro
visions :
In all contracts made for the con
struction or repair of public works,
there is to be inserted a condition that
no convict or prison - labor, or the pro
duct thereof, shall be employed or used
upon such buildings. The willful vio
lation of the law is to constitute a for
feiture of tne contract.
Trouble tn the Cherokee Strip.
Guthrie, O. T., May 9.—It is stated
that there are fully 25,000 cattle on tbe
Cherokee Strip, and the government
seemB to be making no efforts to re
move them. The cowboys have estab
lished themselves in permanent camps,
and are prepared to stay all summer. A
large number of the cattle have wan
dered up near the Kansas line, near
Hunniwell, and the fanners are very
much incensed, as they fear their cattle
will take the texas fever. They are or
ganizing, and say if. the government
does not act soon they will

DEEMING WILL HANG.
His Ezeeutiun Wes Fixed to Take Place
May 23.
Melbourne, May 10.—The execution
of Deeming has bean fixed for May 23.
It is evident tbat Deeming has not tbe
slightest hope that his appeal for fur
ther inquiry into his meutul condition
will avail him to escape hanging. The
condemuei murderer confessed to a
clergyman that he killed his wife at
Windsor. Deeming claims that in his
youth he was called ”Mad Fred, ” aud
that on one occasion he threw a girl,
who addressed him by that name, into
a canal, when he was 12 years old; and,
again, when he was 16, he was, accord
ing to his story, confined in asylums.
He also says that his father, mother,
and brother were coufined in asylums.
But information reaches here from Liv
erpool that his two brothers, who reside
in Birkenhead, say there is not a word
of truth iu this story.

Tt was a case of chicken stealing and the
prints of bare feet were found in the sand
around the henhouse. The lawyer for the
prosecution was one who, if he had been
Napoleon Bonaparte, never would have
crossed the Alps; he would simply have
pulled them up by the roots and thrown
them over the fence. The prisoner was an
unknown tramp and lame at that.
You say you don’t know anything about
this thief?” queried the lawyer fiercely.
“That’s what I swore to, sir,” replied the
tramp meekly.
“You were in the back yard of Slamtipp’s
house about supper time?”
“Yes, sir.”
“You know the location of the hen
house?”
Yes, sir.”
'You were seen on tbe road in front of
the house some time after dark?”
I was there, sir.”
'You were In the yard after dark?”
Yes, sir, and after supper also, sir,” re
plied the prisoner, with a wan smile at his
innocent little joke in such a place.
“And you were seen by the cook sitting
on the doorstep with yonr shoe off?”
Yes, sir, there was a pebble in it that
was too big to get out of the hole it got
in at.”
Now, sir, I purpose to prove that you
made those tracks with your bare feet
while you were stealing the chickens of the
plaintiff.”
“You can’t do it, sir,” said the prisoner
mildly, but firmly.
“And why not, pray?” asked the prose
cutor, with fine sarcasm.
“Because, sir, I’ve got one wooden leg,
sir,” and he gave a kick that sent it clean
across the courtroom and almost knocked
a constable senseless.—Detroit Free Press.
