C, illustrates a very serious dif ficulty which men of intcllegence and independence encounter in many of the Southern States. In a recent issue of a ma ;azine Prol. Bassctt said the way to solve the Negro problem was to treat the Negro fairly, and he also declared that Booker Washington was the greatest man produd by the South in the past hundred years, except Robt. E. Lee. A storm of denunciation greet ed Prof. Bassctt just as soon a-s his article appeared. It is said that an avalanche of petitions for his removal were sent to the offi cers of tnc College by the parents of the pupils and others. News papers thru-out the South took the matter up and t"ld the college authorities that they would either hare to rid themselves of the of fending: teacher or loo.ic their patronage. Prcssuc was brougt to bear upon the school which forced Bassctt to hand n his res ignation, which he lias just done. One of the Charleston papers told the Professor that he was seek ing notoriety in order t 1 be u'de to get a better paying post ir some Northern school, and men tioned several Southern educa tors who left the South under somewhat similar conditions, and were taken in Northern col leges under larger salaries. This Southern into eran;e re calls the proscription .vhich waa practiced by the South during slavery days. There is less cause for the repression now than there was then, for at tint tin J thj South was at war with civilization ,Bnd felt that either it or civiliza tion woulil have to go under. Civ :illiatioa triumphed, the South, jears afterward, pretended to be glad of this triumph, but recent irruptions in that quarter show that there was some hypocrisy in that pretense of -a hearty ac ceptance of the situation. The South is still at war with the cal endar, with progress and the movement of the 'spheres, and take pains to tell the world of this. Recently there was a whine in one of the New Orleans jmpiirs and also in one of the Richmond papers about the drift of 1he South's kecne.tt, most talented and most ambitious men to the North and West. )f these papers and their constituents take a ware of this fact, and represent ed fortune as a blind goddess be cause she distributed her gifts, without discrimination, and in modern times, the belief has been prevalent that, the fortune of a man, was ruled chiefly by the planet under which he Was born. In life We should be indus trious. There is no ftituation in life which can afford so much comfort and enjoyment as that f having both body and mind constantly employed. Improve every hour of your time in the natural exercise of your strength ind faculties in the most useful glance at the Basset affair, and al-, employment, Our aim may b so at me somewat similar ca'se oi Prof. Andrew Slcdd two years a go, they will be able to grasp one of the reasons for this hegira, HAVE AN AIM IN LIFE.

In the midst of events of cventr. which seems to bespeak predes tination, nianfeels that he is free. The planets wheel through the heavens', the earth revolves on its axis and perforins its annual cir cuit; the itcasonsomeand go; the cloud rise and vanish, the rain the hail and snow descends; and in all this, man has no voice. Man therefore is free, He has the power tu wsrJc .happiness in his own way: he enters upon ex istence and sets forward in the path of life. But, as h: passes along a thousand tempers beset him. The farther he gets away from the rose garden ol youth, the more tempations he meets; but as hcovercoiuesone, it makes him more able to overcome the next. Pleasure comes to beck on htni away, offering beautiful prospects in the future; wealth seems to make him her votary, by revealing her' wagic power o ver man and things; ambition moves him with dreams of glory; indolence assay to soften and seduce him, to her influence, love, envy, malice, revenge jeal ousy and many otner busy spir its assail him with their various acts, and man is free to yield to these temptations if he will f5od has so arranged it that man can take his choice, but however, making him respon&lbie for the use and abuse of the liberty be stowed upon him. In order to succeed amid all these tempta tions, we must of a nccesaity have an aim in life. If we wish to achieve honor, if we wish to be a model for ourassociatefi and if we wish to leave behind us foot-prints on the sands of time we must have an aim in life. Well has it b en said: some men are born great, some seek great ness, and others have greatness thrust upon them, but of of all these wavs of obtaining great ness there is but one way for the Negro to become possessor of it and that way is for him, to set up a target and continue to shoot to ward it, for seeking is the only way he w 11 obtain greatness. It is well known and said that NO NEGRO PARTY WANTED. B0ST0NIAN "WIND-JAMMERS" AGAIN ACTIVE. far in the distant, but we should never give up, but fight and shoot at our target until every foci' vanquished: and say like a Roman, I'll find a way or make one. Prejudice and opposition may be against us as a race, but we should never lose our aim. What shall I be? Should be the question of every young man and woman. What shall we make of him or her? should be the question of every parent. Those who have been living at random, let me entreat you to have an aim in life, for thatyou must have if you would succeed,and when you do aim, aim high, for the time has conic when the motives, 10 moral actions and reforms forced upon us, and the voice of a thousand son.s coming to us entreating us that where ever the iron hand is upon us there go, and amid Hurry anil frenzy lift high the banner and herald the tidings', that as lonir arf time shall last, so long will the Negro beapclcnt in the promotion of intelligence. Soon will time up on the swiftly revolving wheels of nature bring to our view the fact that, the man that can pro duce the true work of art, the one who can dive down into the deep mysteries of science, the one that can unfold the beauties of literature, will be recognized as a man wether the attain ments be enrapped in ivory or encased in ebony. Therefore have an aim in lifo. Mrs. Lizzie Bird, Sweet Springs, Mo. missouri's educational exhibit; its weight. The Missouri educational ex hibit will be weighed in the bal ance but it shall imt be found wanting. Judge J. II. Hawthorn; of Kansas City, Chairman of the department of Education, of the Missouri World's Fair Commis sion, and Prof. G. V. Buchanan, of suderintendent, have request ed that Missouri school teachers send an average of one-sixteenth of a pound, avoirdupois, for each boy and gill in the state. Not one-sixteenth of a "pound of flesh" but of exhibit matter in the shape of shape of written recitations, including free hand drawings, drawings in nature study, water colors maps, relief maps and char s, manual train ing and kindergarten work. In fact, any kind of legctimate sciiool work done in the school room or under supervision of the teacher. Then allowance, it is The Negroes in Boston, who have just started out to for.n a party of their own for the whole country, are unwise. They pas sed resolutions reciting that "the colored voters .if the North, the better to advance their cause, to detach themselves henceforth from the control of both the great political parties which divide the country, should organize in ev ery state into an independent body of voters, and wield the bal lot in their hands with nn eye sin gle to the preservation of the rights confered on them and their brethren in the South by the four teenth and iifthtccnth amend mcnts. There is not the slightest ne cessity for any such political or ganization. Parties organized on race lines arc as mischievous as are those on lines of creed or ge ography. The Democracy has succeeded in making itself a geo tn-aphical party bv the follies and lunacies which have extirp i ted it thru-out the North and West and confined it to the South. Punishment, of course, comes to the Democracy for this vice by being shut out from power in the national government. It is effaced iu the North and West, and tho' the world owes every man a liv- computed, will tot4 the enor iug.and any man can sucked, if nious bulk of twelve ton...

The ancients were well a- souri teachers are now engaged il controls the statu of the South, it ha not the slightest iufluncc in national concerns, Boston's Negroe arc as blind as the national Democratic lcad- s. The country wants to steer clear of all such racial and sect ional divisions as the black men of the Hub and the Democratic bosses of the country aim at. The Democrats have accomplish ed their piece of nsininity, but the Eastern Negroes will be pre vented by circumstances over which they have no control from carrying out their folly, They will be prevented by the fact thut the Negroes at large will refuse to join them. The Republican party is able and willing to defend the rights of every element in the community. It has always done this. It always will do it. Let the Boston black men take the advice of B. Washington and leave race questions out of politics endeaver to meet their duties as citizens and support the party which they think docs most for the general good of the country at large. The United States may possibly need one or two new things, but it is) not demanding any additioual political parties. Globe-Democrat. REY. J. WILL JACKSON D. D.
