stor Lays Severe Strictures on the Recent Speech of Senator Morgan-Whites Have Sold Their Votes As Well At Blacks. Editor of the Afro-American Citizen In the Senate of the United States, on Monday last, the question of "Negro" suffrage was under consideration, and it is reported that Senator Morgan of Alabama said, that no great body of white people in the world could be expected to quietly accept a situation so distressing and demoralizing as is created by "Negro" suffrage in tbe South. Just here we respectfully submit that these United States are made up of people from all parts of the world, and their racial status is hard to define. Ali over these states are men whose identity is very questionable. Yes; right at home here in our sunny South, where the Senator boasted of white supremacy, we find those who are considered white, having relatives called colored, therefore we repeat what we have said in a former article through your influential paper, that in this great country of curs, there are white-colored people and colored-white people.

The Stator is further reported as in many places in the South thousands of votes in doubtful counties with little concealment were bought for $1 each." Yes, Senator, we don't deny your statement, but is this not the case of all classes and races of men who are poor and dependent What is the character of the at all elections? Are they not found irj the use of money? There was a time the Negro could not vote, that white nien were coobed for week until election then carried to the polls in coaches, if you please, and voted for a consideration. AH over the country, at least we know it tobe so in this city. So far as the Negro oemg forced into social equality with the marj, let not yonrheart be troubled, Sanat0ri there is not the least danger in this Aspect, because we believe that social will ever regulate itself among all and condition of men. ProgroM. oie mm That some men carry their honors as an an bean gold.

TLat envy and malice are great barriera to the progrese of the race. That all things come to those who wait if you hustle while yon wait. Tbat things written in lighter rein should not be taken seriously. That this world would be very dull if we were all not making blunders all the time which give our neighbhrs a chance to laugh and grow fat. That the free reeding rooms of the Colored Young Christian Association are open every evening.

The Young men are cordially invited to visit them. Yoi welcome without money and without price. That a certain Divine spent the day in the Country among friends last week. But lo! and behold! The Chickens his coming and scampered always Not one could be caught. His goose cooked that day.

That a certain editor was asked by one of his readers to predict the State of the weather fer the next month. The reply was, Like your subscription. The reply perplexed bim for some times until the word "Unsettled" Crossed his mind. That the Citizen refused to be drawn into a Church Controversy last week. tVe scorn such notoriety as many be gained only at the expense of scare institutions.

The publication of such matter as does the the community of good does not come within our range. That the Rev. S. S. Youngblood our efficient business manager, has been sade happy by strong signs affection on the part of the members of his Church at held a meeting during his absence and raised his Salary without his knowledge or THE i SUMNER DEBATING CLUB.

Annual Meeting-A Grand Banquet-Eloquent Speeches. On the evening of the 8th, Sumner Debating Club held its annual meeting at the residence of Dr. D. Cram. At the business meeting the secretary read an elaborate report of the work giving an account ot the debates won by each member.

The President ruled, upon point of order raised by Mr. King, that the old officers would hold over for another year, the club having failed to carry out the coBstitutionl prov sion for re-election at the proper time. The officers are Capt. N. Montgomery, President.

Mr. C. Leslie, First Vice-President, Dr. R. J.

Macbeth, Secretary. At the adjournment of the business meet ing the members and guests of honor gathered around a table which was laden with the best viands of the season and their rare condiments. This feast was illuminated further by flashes of wit and bright con ver sations At its close Prof. E. A.

Xawrence, who acted as toastmaker, introduced in order those who were to respond First in order was, "The Day We Celebrate," responded to by Capt. N. Montgomery. The history of the Sumner Club was sketched and the good work it has done were enlarged by the speaker. He heartily congratulated the club on its nineteenth anniversary.

"Charles Sumner, orator, scholar, and statesman," was responded to by Mr. G. Gregory. The salient features in the life of the great apostle of liberty were outlined "Our Country, City and responded to by Dr. W.

Crum with his usual eloquence. Be laid special emphasis upon those important services rendered by Afro- Americans. "The Pulpit;" responded to by Rev.tE. N. Hollings.

The pulpit is the noblest of all callings and its work at all stages of the world's history has been fraught with the utmost good to men. "The Negro in business;" responded to by Mr. S. W. Bennett.

This speech was such a one as deserves the serious consideration of every thinking man in the community. We print it full elsewhere. "Woman;" responded to by Dr. R. J.

Macbeth. Many witticisms at the expense of the gentler sex flashed forth. Their contradictions were dwelt upon. A woman seldom use her reasoning faculties and then there are those who, doubt that she has them. She will jump at conclusions but in nine cases out of ten be right.

At the close of regular toasts the three guests, Mr. Johii N.Gregg, "Nestor" and Messrs Jas. Spencer and Isiah Walker were introduced amd each made a ready made a ready respoke on literary clubs before and after the spoke on education, ea his pleasure in the response. Mr Gr sponse.
