(GREFN, OX TUrmnAT, AT THE CELE
MIATloN OF THE EMANCIPATION O0
SLtýrs IN THE WnT INDIA Is
uiNos --A BLACK REPUBLICAN
ArrERI A BLACK DEMOCRAT-AN
AMERIC4N ANATHEMA MARANTHA.
The celebration of the emancipa
tion of the slaves of the West India
Islauds, held in Bowling Green, on
Tuesday, brought together an im
mense crowd of both.white and col
ored people from the country about
Bowling Green. Mr. T. Morris
Chester, the colored lawyer, who
lectured here a few w'eeks ago, de
livered a powerful address, and in
his speech reviewed Mr. Carlisle in
a manner far from being "childlike
] and blank," and also referred in the
strongest terms of denunciation to
Elia:; Polk, a Democratic negro
from TeIILssee, who has been ha- I
ported by the 1Democrats to stump
the State for their ticket. The
speet h, an extract from which we
putlish below, is worthy of perusal,
and will he found extremely inter
eating, especially to Elias Polk ant
hi, white and colored adherents:
'The party of human progress,
desirous of protecting us in our
new-horn relations, enacted the civil
rights bill against the most violent
'('1'pposlition of our enemies -. a
measure demanded by circum
Jtzuwes and warranted by the Con
stitietion. It is customary for our
white friends, when they assemble
together, to criticise the colored
people. Now, I am going to criti
cisc one of our white friends. Loud
applause. J
"'('he civil rights bill calls to mind
a speech which was delivered by
Mr. John (i. Garlisle, the Demo
cratic candidate for Lieutenant
(overnor, at Mnnfordville, on the
30th of June, which I saW in the
Louisville Ledqr, on the 4th
of .Julv; and, comparing it witlr
those of kindred sentiments, he
seies to be the most intelligent
ri.blasititaive of hlii party, which
is my reason for noticing him in
this connection. (Applause. ] He
tinds fault with the civil rights bill
because it acknowledges your citi
zenship and punishes the Kentucky
judge, or the judge of any other
State, for refusing to administer
justice according to the laws of
God and the enlightened spirit of
the age. IApplause.]
"He wants to return to the good
old times when he could knock
black men down, outrage our
women, rob us of our goods, and
inflict every species of indignity
aidd injustice upon us, only so a
white man had no knowledge of
the fact. The law that comes to
the rescue of civilization, which
protects the humblest man under
its jurisdiction in his person and
property, and which is founded
upomi justice and religion, is de
ubuneed by Mr. Carlisle in a species
of dceimagogism which is only equal
ed by its stupidity.
"T hope, for the credit of the
profession, that Mr. Carlisle is not
a lawyer, or I should be forced to
believe him unpardonably ignorant
of legal construction, while his dis
cussion of all questions affecting
the supreme law of the land betray?
a munientabile ignorance of constitu
tional application. [Great applausc.]
He says: 'I believe we can gov
ern the negro better than the negro
can govern us.' Now, I doubt this,
and point in refutation to Missis
Isippi and South Carolina, where the
blacks are in the majority, where
they control the legislation of those
States, where they mould public
sentiment, and whose laws to-day
are enacted more in the interest of
an enlightened civilization than the
unrepe'tled, but annulled condititu
tion and statutes that disgrace the
record of Kentucky. (Great Ap
'plause. J Mr. Carlisle says, in a
burst of Kentqcky enthusiasm
[great applanse], 'I woul4 extend
to the colored mtan protectlou in his
life, liberty and property, but as
long as God let. me live I will never
extend to bun equality with. the
race to *hich I beloug.' (Great
laughter. I
"Not knowing exactly to what
peculiar species Mr. O(rlisle belongs
I am unaware of time peeuliar mer
it. oflhig usescistusor apon whst
he founds his ssnumption of muperi
ority. If he is identified with that
race whoa. soul is stained with the
blood of our people, who has sanc
tioned and perpetuated our ignor
ance and degradation, who has li
beled humanity and insulted heaven
in impiously defending human bond
age, who publicly denounces amal
gamation and privately practices it,
the less we have to do with Mr.
Carlisle and the race to which he
belongs the nobler will be ottr man
hood, the brighter will be our civili
Zation, the purer will be our virtue.
[Great applause. J Though a na
tive of this country, it has been
my fortuno to pass most of iay good
fortune to pass most of my life in
the Old World, where, in associa
tion with a cultlyated civilization.
I have acquired some principles of
taste, some feelings of pritle and
some notions of propriety, founded
as I trust, upon wisdom and dis
crimination; and I could conceive
of no greater misfortune than being
compelled to associate upon terms
of equality with a man, whatever
might be his oflicial position, whose
ignorance of law, absence of logic
and constructive dishonesty, incite
feeling of supreme contempt. ( Sen
sation.J
"As Mr. Carlisle seems to be the
most intelligent representative of
his kindred, and standard-bearer of
their principles, I commend his un
just and wicked utterance to your
serious consideration; and after
they have been heard, and by every
colored man in the country, I am
sure the earnest prayer which will
go up from every heart will be:
'Good Lord, deliver us from all
social equality with Mr. Carlisle and
the race to which he belongs.' I
would advise Mr. Carlisle to always
stay in this country, and above all
never to go outside of Kentucky oL
he may realize that his white face,
which seems to have no other merit
to recommend him, could not be
received in the Old World, where
there iý the highest development of
the Anglo Saxon race, in those
charmed circles of social (qunality
which recognizes the Fatherhood of
God and the brotherwood of man.
Great applause.)
"I have understood that in this
State, which clings more tenaciously
to slavery than any other, and
which has not yet recognized 'tlie
manhood of the negro, that there is
a black man from Tennesee who is
now canvassing the State in the in
terest of the white man's party. It
is hardly possible to conceive of a
greatMv crime, or of deeper ingrati
tude than to see a black man born
in Tennesee, whose back or that of
his blood-kin, has felt the lash of
oppression, of which the white man's
party is the champion; who has
heard the dying groans and slrieks
of our brethren who have been mur
dered by slavery; who in his own
person hau suflert'd evr'y indignity
which slave laws ansi slave public
sentiment indicted, advising black
rmen to vote their liberty away, and
by solemn act to surrender their
manhood.
"May this wreteh who renders
infamous the name of Elias Polk,
enjoy the contempt which his de
pravity merits. [Sensation. j May
he receive the ineffable brand of a
traitor, so that a11 good men and
women may acorn him, wherever he
appear.. f Loud applause.] May
the church of which he is'a member
expefllim in disgrae as being mn
worthy to associate with Christian
people. (Great applause amid cries
of "good."J May the community
in which he lives indignantly point
him outtefttheir midst as a foul blot
upon humanity. [Loud apipleaise.
M(ay every black race that he meets
shun him as a loathsome toad and
a hissing viper. [Ovsat. applinse
amid cries of approval.) hay
heaven's judgment deprive him of
sight, that he may no longet' see the
liberty that he is endeavoring to
betay. (Great applem.] May he

the hour that she ever seenim re
fuse to live longer with usac a mes
ster. [Great applause.] May his
children, shrinking from him in his
disgrace and depravity, disown and
execrate him. [Loud applause.]
"May our colored soldiers who
fought for liberty and equal rights,
get this fraud upon humanity into
their quiet keeping. [Great ap
plause. j May he be stumped all
over this land by the stumps of
black men who have left parts of
limbs upon every field of glory.
[Long continued applause. I May
the prayers of the widows and or
phans of our dead soldiers bring
down upon him a just retribution
in this world and in the world to
come. [Great applause. J May the
ghost of black men from the infer
nal regions haunt' him while living
and torment him when dead.
[Thunders of applause. I May he
lire the life of misery and wretched
ness which he advocates for others,
and, though dying and desiring to
die, may he never die. j Treten -
dous applause. I May- he exist
throughout time as one of Got's

cursed by men, and cursed by de

"KEMEMBER Tillt EAiTOk I1 THE Ii11t
OF Till 101TI."
Years have conme and gone siace
I looked upon the still, white face
of my best-loved ot earth. Years
have changed mty tldark hair to gray,
and my light heart to weariness,
since the tirst bloom of the rose
Bushed upon her grave. Yet mew
ory bridges the chasm of years, and
fills the night with sorrowful mel
ody, as these words on the fly-leaf
of my childhocl's prayer-book, greet
me in the dear, familiar haudwrit,
ing: "tlemetmtlr thy (reator ut
the days of thy youth." God has
made infancy a beautiful mtd tender
strain in the 'iusic of-life! Pure,
untainted hearts le givt-s from the
"great, white throne," and blesses
little ones with His own majestic
touch and voice. The babe fast
grows out of childhood. The pur
ple bloom and rich btoxsom are rip
ening upon the garden walls of
youth, and life, with its full destiny,
is awakening the slumbering soul to
action. Oh! young, Christian friend,
who are wearing the prouta dignity
of maidenhood, look well to the path
over which your young feet are
passing. A 1,toe woman is the purest
handiwork of her Creator; a woman
cannot be true, if she be devoid of
piety, for truth springs from Heaven,
and owns no other source. As well
think of tire without heat, or beau
ty without life, as woman she, uho
makes home an Eden without te
ligion. A 'ii if het- heart turii not
to the tnr in youth, matur-itv
will comu .her as a season of ire
gret and tup aiings, it will itot he as
a quiet evening aftei- a summer day
-a peaceful twilightt after a golden
sunset. (od help us all in our
youth ! It is then with us the sprin g
time of life. It is thent the fresh
buds take roof, and are watered
and pwuned by the guiding hand of
God's ministers. So if we be watch
fail and prayerful, the good raced
will bring forth abundant harvest!
We, the sowers in the morning sun
shine, shall become the leaper. in
the evening twilight; our buds shall
be all scaret bloom, our grain, all
golden hivest. My young maiden
friends, it is you whom I would par
ticularly address, -you who are to
be chosen as the helpnmate and coat
panion of another human soul. '-Re
member thy Creator in the days of
thy youth;" so when God calls you
to the home of a husband, a bless
ing shall go out with you from the
threshold your feet are pressing for
the last time. No pure, full life
can crown your soul, unless the one
great Iov, habll he supreme over all;
unless you recognize the chain of at
fection blinding us here as lesaing
to Heaven--a Jacob's ladder, with
God's angel's passing up and down,
and high above all,-the good God
HimselL So shall yoinr hournehold
treasure, be never unto you as idols
of clay--rather as losas from the
Father who recalls them at His will.
ut youreyeofbfith . ageapib4
to Jesus, who said, "of sm ' is the
kingdom of heaven;" the 'td, white
shaft in the church-yard tell: of
another angel on high.
And how is it necessary to eon
secrate one's youth to Heaven-the
time when the heart is gay, andE
wild, with the gladness of life ? Sure
ly religion consists not in a miorose
countenance and an abject voice,
lusterless eyes and languid step.
No, no, my young friends, it should
rather lend a glowing light to the
eyes, a healthy bloom to the cheek,
a tnneful melody to the voice, and
an elasticity of hope to the step.
Ah, and it does; we have known a
fair girl in the flush of youth. We
have known her, for alas! she is no
more upon erirth, but dwells above
with the angels. Early in life she
aimed to perfect her afoul for the'
love she bore "Our Father." When
her beauty and purity were crown
ed with the grace of twenty sum
mers, the deadly blight of dýMease
fell upon her. It paled the crimson
rose in her cheek, and dimmed the
Markness in her eyes. The buoyan
cy of her spirit departed, leaving
still a cheerful radiance, as the sun, I
sinking to rest, tinges the clouds
with amber and scarlet. The sweet
ness of her disposition never became
acid; the tones of her voice never
grew fretful; and as she faded away
like a holy star, a peaceful quiet fell
upon the stricken ones who had
been loth to see her die. We look
ed upon her deaf; in the rich pro
mise of life; we noted the repose of
the folded hands, nud the purity of
the light upon the white forehead,
which alas! was "that of the day
light only. And we thanked Hea
ven for a knowledge of this life,
made holy by a sanctified youth;
and we prayed that over our own
broad lind He would scatter the
seeds of this divine love, so that
many more young voices should
chant His praises, and niany more
young lives bear witness to His
honor ant glory. "Remember thy
Creator in the days of thy youth."
Then shall life he pleasant to look
back upon; standing on the rugged
hill of age -the happy valley of
youth will shine as bright as the
day, for its fleeting hours were well 1
spnt, and treasures dearer than
gold or silver were laid away, where
can neither moth nor thief enter to
despoil the beauty and plenty.
"Remember thy Creator in the days
of thy youth," ft i such is the com
moand given by a loving Father
whos voice speaks truth forever
and ever.
The Length and Names of the Meiths.
The month is strictly 29 days, 12
hours, 44 minutes, l seconds; ard j
twelve such periods, and rather less
than 11 days ever, oe'ur in a year. I
From an early period efibrts were
made to arrange the year in ac
cordance with the revolutions of
the mioon; but they all failed until
Jul ian (Wear reformed the calender,
by establishing the system of three
years of 36.". followed by one (bin
sextile) of .166 days, anti decreed
that the months should consist of
31 anti 30 days alternately, iu the
biss~ertile or leap-year. In ordinary
years, eonsiating of one (lay less,
his arrangement gave 29 days to
February. Afterwarti, lhii successor,
Augnstns' had the eighth of the
series called after himself, and from
vanity broke up the regularity of
Casar's arrangement by taking an
other day from February to add to
his own month, that it maight not
he shorter than July: a change
which led to a shift of October and
December for September and No
vemnber as months of 31 days. In
this arrangement, the year baa minee
remained in all Christian eountriee.
The fumiliar rhyme, quaint and
indispeasable, which aeminds us of
the respeetive length of the months,
" Thiriy days bath 8epte~mber ' etc.,
is of uncertain age.. wet as unver
tain origin. It appear. in a play
