It has been lour years since Senator Conkling crossed the thrcshhold of the White House. He can enter without embarrassment in the afternoon of March 4. A movement is on foot to establish a colony of colored people in New 3Iexico. This is a move in the right direction. The soil is fertile and the climate congenial to the people of the Gulf States. THE EXODÜ3. There can be no doubt now that in a very short time we shall see such an exodus of colored people from the South as avc have never seen before. The brutal instincts of the Southern people will not permit them to treat the colored people decently. Change of place and associations will have inspiring and elevating influence on the er-slaves. The depopulation of the Southern States will pauperize the ex-rebels, and make way for foreign and Northern settlors who have correct notions of the freedom and equality of men. CINCINNATI DEPAETMENT. Hack Ilarranffu. TO THE PKOPLK OY CIXCINXATI. In subscribing for The Loader, don't imagine it is like the Citizen and Keview , papers which never fulfill their promises. The Leader is already on a firm basis in Indianapolis and throughout Indiana. "What we want is a large list in Cincinnati to help us further along. Never be afraid of The Leader. For many years it has been a muchlydebated question as to whether Cincinnati could sustain a colored paper and if the numerous failures can be worth anything to count on; we should judge no. The Colored American (1844-46), the Herald of Freedom (1855), Colored Citizen (18GG-G7), and the Declaration and Review have had their days few in number, and an untimely end. Sijice a colored paper can not live here, whv should we not join hands with the Bagby Bros., of Indianapolis, who have after untiring exertions met with wellearned success in establishing a live colored newspaper, and who are now willing to devote a fair space to Cincinnati and its citizens. The Bagby Bros, have made full arraneftments fr bavin? all the news of the week and not.ces of events in the coming wee&, io do punned and handed to Cmojnnati readers hj Saturday noon. This can

The Leader azent will receive subscriptions for the year, half year, quarter or montn. Let all join in aid ing tne Bagby Bros, in their noble purpose oy suDscrioing wnen tne agent calls. GRAND CONCERT. A large and appreciative " audience gathered at Allen Temple A.M. E., last Thanksgiving nignt, tne occasion being a grand Literary and Musical concert for the benefit of the above named hurch of which the Kev. K. A. Johnson is pastor. From the regular program circular which was freely distributed over town, we learn that Tom "VV. Johnson, Esq., was Director, and Miss Leana C. Young, pianiste. Shortly after 8 o'cloetc, Mr. Joenson mounted the stand and announced that the exercises would be opened by the Kev. R. A' Johnson with a prayer, alter which the exercises were gone through without a single break. The llarpersister8 and brothers sang ''Sing Ye Jehovah's Praises," which proved to be a very beautiful sacred quartette. Mr. Willis J. Koss, class of '80 Gaines' Uigh School, declaimed "The Battle of Glory' in excellent style there being but one'thmg which marred the beauty of the declamation and that was his voice grew softer toward the last and he could hardly be understood. A duet called "Must I then etc.," was then rendered by Miss Susie Johnson and Mr. John M.Lewis. We regretted to seethe sweet voices of those singers wasted upon a song of such simple and ordinary melody, and expected after the musical experience each of them has had that something far sweeter and a trifle more difficult would have been rendered by them. Miss Minnie Moore, who rec ently at the graduating exercises of Gaines' High School carried off all the honors by her finished diction and magnificent eloquence, followed with a declamation entitled "The Black Regiment." When we attempt to describe this declamation, such was the grace, beauty, and elegance of the rendition and such the poetry in her motions, that we fain would exclaim": ür pure and eloquent blood Spoke in her cheeks, and to distioftljr wrought That one might almost ey her body thought. This declamation was the one priceless of the occasion. The Misses Leanna C. Young and Minnie Mosby rendered piano recitations with great credit to themselves. Messrs. Chas. D. Horner and Tom W. Johnson, both of G. II S. class of '79, and teachers in the city schools read essays the former one entitled "Some 3leasures of Education," and the latter ono called "Culture." These subjects were ably and thoroughly handled by these young men, yet, we would enjoin them to the use of small words. Big words always hit an audience, but they don't know what hurt them. Mr. Horner very unfortunately allowed his voice to fall away down into a gutteral tone like unto Geo. W. Williams, and it sounded very peculiar for one so young to assume such a Brobdignagian voice. However, his modulation and pronunciation were excellent. Mr. Johnson, at the very beginning fell into a very taking and agreeable tone and had he not became wearied toward the last of his essay, it would have been almost perfect. Mr, Johnson was flattered by an invitation signed by several gentlemen presont, io repeat nis edsay at some near occasion. The old heads have generally had a monopoly of the essay business heretofore. and these young menthave made anoble innovation. The Misses Uattie Todd, of G. H. S. class of '8T, and Miss Flora Peterson declaimed with excellent taste and with their accustsmed and well-known ab'lity. Mr.;T. J. Monroe sang "My Sweetheart When a Boy." very nicely. Messrs. John son, Triplett, Lewis and Ross, and Misses v atson and Johnson appeared several times in quartettes, etc but fell short of what could be expected of them; because they had not practiced gufficiently. Nevertheless meir selections were very sweet and were rendered well just so-so. The success of this concert is all due to the untiring exerti ns and ability of Mr. Tom W. Johnson, who ig well known in U. B. F. circles all over the country. HACK BRUISED, BUT 8TILL IN THE RING ALLEE SAM EE ! The natrons of the Leader will rampmhpr that the Cincinnati correspondence was for monms oesprinKiea witn items like this: "Freemont Anderson went to Hamilton last Sunday," "Fred Anderson was in Lexing--1 , .ITT r"l 4 - . m urn laaw weeay- -nen. J one says me gins OI Louisville are dasies." and so on "ad nauseam extremam." In our report of the Smith banntet, and referring: to these numerous items iust mnn. tioned, we said, naming those who were present ana tne inree celebrated, II. Jcorte, Fred. Anderson and Freemont Anderson. This harmless notice gave mortal offence to iL . a 3 . iag ivnaerson orotners, wno at once announced the Purpose of trivin? vour cor respondent a beating. True to that promise. -TV J m . ua ounaay evening iaai, just as we stepped into Hogan's, Fred. Anderson, raw-hida in hand, made the promised attack, and was backed by his brother Freemont. There was a lively tussel for a minute or two, blows were given and received on both sides and blood drawn from all parties; a pistol which We were using as a club exploded, and eventually the" two gilt-eged proved too much for us, and we were badly stamped by tho number sixteen brogans of Freemont. Now we will at any moment undertake to surpass the Anderson's in gentility of deportment or amount of braius, but in a muscular contest; eleven feet ten is rather much for five feet seven. We truly regret that this occurred in Hogan'g rooms, because he had opened them that respectable young colored men could have a meeting place free from the allurements of gambling and drinking. It is a pity that his good intentions should be interfered with by 1 . a r sucu an act oi ru man ism. As for us, tho' somewhat bruised, we are still in the ring and smiling. We propose to "shoot folly as it flies, and catch the manners living as thev rise." If my pen chances to prick the skin of some ruffian and he gets mad we will have to stand the consequences. Tho world must jog on, tho' fools do object to motion, .nOLMES DAT If THE GAINES AND WESTERN scnooL. Some months ago superintendent John B. Teaslee oi the city schools introduced the happy idea of devoting an hour of different days in the year to the celebration of America's great poets. On these days poems of the selected author are declaimed and short biographies and sketches of him read; the purpose being to acquant and familiarize the children with the poets, their lives and works. Holmes day was celebrated in the following style at the Gaines and Western School. "The Boys," and "Old Ironsides" were recited by the class. 'Bill and Joe" bjr James Arundell, and the "The Last Leaf' by Miss Jessie Swett, also "Battle of Lexington" by Miss Marietta Oglesby. Holmes' favorite poem "The Chambered

Nantilus" was delivered by the class. On Friday, December 24, this school will celebrate the poets of the Ohio valley, namely Kinney, Cutter, Gallagher, and others The colored patrons of the school are expected to be present that day as the occasion will be made interesting. Pursuant to a call issued by Fountain Lewis, jr., a number of persons assembled at the Union Baptist Church last Wednesday evening to discuss and agree upon some ftlan of raising money for the Orphan Asyum. After some consideration it was determined to render the cantatas of Esther and Daniel during the holidays. When these cantatas were played some time ago, large audiences were attracted, and hence we judge these cantatas will be a treat to all lovers of good singing. A few of the patriarch of this city spent last Friday evening as the- guests of ColRobert Harlan, rather an enjoyable evening was spent, and all departed with kindest re. collections of their host. Mr. Thomas Triplett, the popular principal of Third Street School, last Sunday had seven degrees added to his masonic record. Tom is quite popular among the lodges, holding the clerkähip in one or two. Mr. C. W. Reynolds, teacher in Wilmington, O., and boon companion of "Wraign," visited this city on Thanksgiving day. From him we gleaned several points concerning "Wraign.'' One of which is when several of the teachers remained in Springfield after a Teachers' Institute and under "Wraign's" leadership were going to organize a Coloreed Teachers' Association, but lo! and behold! WTraign commenced to speak of "mixed schools." A sudden transition I But Mr. Reynolds is a very pleasant young man, who likes to let everybody know with what ladies he corresponds. " Last week we Fpoko of the departure of Hon. Geo. W. Williams for Hew Mexico on a business trip. A party of New York capitalists are planning to purchase land and establish a colony of colored people out there, and George has gone out to see after the possibilities. The building of the Colored Orphan Asylum seems to have a very unfortunate site. First a street on one side took off a strip of their land, and soon after a street on the other side did likewise. Now the Great Northern Railroad comes to the front and wants to go bang through almost. We next expect to hear of u tunnel from China coming through from below. Can't the colored people get up a big boom for a new build

ing ana lot somewhere eisef The detire of office under the new administration has not commenced to boom among the colored folks, yet there are several prominent politicians about town.who would just as soon hold a foreign mission as not. Ohio was the great center of tho late political contest, and it is well known that the "colored troops fought nobly," so we shall look for a few omces handed around in town here. A. S. Thomas, Philip Miller, John Pernell. and William Warner will pnend the Holidays in Indianapolis. Philip Miller entertained a number of young gents at his room Tuesday eve, preparing for Holiday amusements. A misunderstanding between Herbert ij Clark and Fred Anderson at no?an's harler shop caused some shooting, Sunday eve. The many friends of Miss Moss are clad to hear that she will visit the Queen City again. Miss Kate Dalton, of Nashville, Tenn., and brother Mr. J. S. Dalton and Miss Millie E. Ross of the East End will leave next Monday night for New London, Huran County, Ohio, to attend the marriage of their cousin Miss Jennie B. Childs, formerly resident of Clinton, Mass. The wedding will take place Wednesday evening, Dec. 8th, and is p-omised to be quite a brilliant affair. , J. H. F. Mr. C. P. Reynolds, of Wilmington. O. with two of his friends, Messrs. Wm. Frelting and Henry Gowans took tea with Messrs. Fountain, Lewis, jr. and Wm. Mayo, Sunday afternoon. Nov. "28 at the residenc of Mr. F. Lewis, sr. It is learned that the young men enjoyed themselves splendidly. The time arriving for Mr. Reynolds departure home the above named vounc men ac companied him to the train. Laurence. Mr. L. R. Lewis will of course continue as heretofore to furnish the Leader to our Cincinnati patrons, who prefer to take it by the week. Believing that a good many of oo. Cincinnati friends would prefer to become regular subscribers for The Leader, we have arranged with and duly authorized Mr. Herbert A. Clark of 291 Poplar street to solicit and receive subscriptions for The Leader. We trust that the people of Cincinnati huve become sufficiently acquainted with The Loader to understand that it is a permanent institution and that every subscriber will receive the paper regularly during the entire period of his subscriptions. Our agent is authorized, howevr, to take annual, semi-annual, quarterly and monthly subscriptions, thus making it possible for every family to have the leader bv making the trifling outlay of twenty cents a month. ine payments in advance will enable us to make decided improvements in The Ijeader. Ed. Leader. Blooratnglon Chat. I have leen silent for sometime for fear of Wraign's "invincible" lance. I like his articles and read them with a great deal of satisfaction. But it seems to me that it would be better for a gentleman of his culture to advise, rather than to poke fun at those who, under a cloud of difficulture, are trying to do something for themselves and for their race. For my part I see nothing objectionable in signing any name the writer of a newspaper article may wish. It certainly does not affect the article. I am oi the opinion that he will have enough to do to organize his "Colored Teachers' Association." Now, Mr. Editor, I can not, as Dr. Revels used to say, "for the life of me," see the use of it. We have been laboring for years to do away with the color line, and just why Wraign wishes to keep it up 1 don't understand. Will he rise and explain? Elder John II. Clay has raised and paid on the church debt $150, Jn the ten weeks he has been here, which is just $150 more than any minister has done in the last five years. The schools are getting along nicely. The colored people are doing all they can for the cause of education. The weather is very cold, thermometer jour uugrws oeiow zero. Our quarterly meet! n or ia avav onn watt grand success. Elder R.

He is neither needed (or any other man of that stamp) or wanted any longer in that capacity at West Point. That Rip Van Winkle is exactly fifteen years behind the people of to-day, if he believes the treatment received by colored men at West Point is similar to that received by them elsewhere. He says this is the kind of stufl his mind is filled with. A U. S. General, he is said to be. The central high school gives a concert in the hall on the 23d.

A Woman's Thoughts By Clio. "Nerer dwptdr; it Is wisur and better Always to hope, than once to de pair." . Nil desperandum should be our motto while journeying through life. With it ever before us we have no fe&r of failure in what we may desire to accomplish. By de termining to never despair, we fortify our selves against the ills of life and are better enabled to endure its hardships. When calamities or severe afflictions befall us we ( are apt to despair, to lose all hope of a morrow that may dawn for us bright and cloudless. We seem to lose ll power to look beyond the present. We forget that ad versity can not last always. That there is a futue before us. And that the power is ours to make our lines either a bright and glorious tnumpn or a Diignt. That we are want to regard as the evils of life sometimes proves life's blessing. Adversity, in whatever form it may come, is not without its good effect on us. If we never knew ad versity, we could not rightly appreciate prosperity. If there were no cloudy days the bright ones would soon become monot onous and we would cease to value them as we now do. We would know nothing of the thrill of pleasure caused by the Budden flood of bright warm sunlight, the first after many dajrs of dreary darkness. We felt the whole weight of the clouds had settled on our spirits and had shut out the light forever. But Nil desperandum. The clouds are moving slowly, and ever and anon we catch glimpses of blue sky and soft shimerings oi light. Presently the sun bursts on our delighted vision, reflecting a shower of glory on us. It seems to pervade our whole being; to transform us into beings of another sphere. The cloud has been lifted from our hearts and the glory of the bright sun has shone away the gloom. No matter how heavy our sorrows may be we should bear them with patience, remembering they are sent to us for some good purpose; perhaps to prepare us for a fuller appreciation of the blessings we are constantly receiving from the hand of a kind and indulgent Father. Terre Haute, Ind. Clio. TbanfeRffiTinft- la Springfield The Second Baptist church of this city gave a general dinner and supper in the wigwam, which was neatly fitted up for the occasion.

At 7 o'clock a large concourse of people were present, eager to learn and witness the great display of talent which was corretlv termed the great attract tion. Miss Hattie D.

A Bright Look Ahead. Gulden Role. Teople who are al ways anticipati n g trouble are commonly liko those who are on the outlook for social snubs and slights: they find what they look for. If half the time were given to planning for pleasure that is occupied in looking ahead at work and worry, we should all be a good deal happier. The habit and knack of making pleasant times, instead of waiting for them to happen, is not enough studied in our homes. Unexpected delights are no more truly God-sends than those that we earn by providing for them though they often seem so from the Bweet surprises they brine, and from the natural satisfaction we all feel in "extras," whether from Heaven or earth. The home-time of the year is near upon us. The altar-fires will soon be lighted; the evening lamps already glow at the center of the home circle; and the long evenings bring their old opportunities for intellectual and social life. Is it not worth while for the home-makers and their assistants, of all degrees to plan a little to make these long seasons of indoor life as varied and attract ive as possible? The wise parents will, of course, make as generous a provision as they can, in the way of books and games, and fascinating amusements and employments, for the children. If you don't want the boys in mischief, and the girls in idleness, you must furnish them with innocent and normal activities. The healthful little boy that will stay contentedly and quietly in the house, with only his last year's toys, books that are either too old, too young or too stupid to interest him, and parents whose first and last command is that he shall "keep still' and bother nobody, is either an angel or a simpleton probably the latter. A little wise provision will secure a winter garden of flowers, or some useful fancy work for the girls perhaps in preparation for holiday presents; a new magazine for every month; books from the public library; a box of paints or draughting implements, a foot-lathe and set of tools, or a coop of hens for the boys something new and interesting for each, according to their tastes or inclinations-There are many lesser things, also, that go to make up a happy home life for the children, and so for their elders. How many mothers forget to lay in a supply of nuts, of various sorts, for the winter evenings; to have a bag of popping-corn hung convenient to the kitchen fire, to give the bovs a regular treat; to keep always a barrel of eating apples where they can supply the children 's lunch-baskets and Dockets! It takes a good many things to make a home, and forethought is one of the indispensables forethought not merely for food and comfort, but for culture, recreation, employment, happiness. Fallen Greatnea. rNatioDil Citizen Soldier. A wounded wolf is torn to pieces and devoured by his companions. The law holds good in the higher order of wolves of which man is a fair" representative. When Napoleon was at the zenith of his power he drew the world after him, He was a hero and a worshiped god. When he was a prisoner and exile those who had been loudest in his praises denounced him. Below we have some extracts from a valuable book. known by the name of "Gleanings for the Curious," in which is the record of Napoleon's advance upon Paris, after his escape from Elba. WTere it not so sad to think how changeable human nature is, it would be truly laughable to read of the rise and fall of the barometer of political feeling. ' In 1815, the French newspapers announced the departure of Bonaparte from Elba, his progress through France and his entrance into Paris, in the following manner: March 9. The Anthropophogus has quitted his den. March 10. The Corsican Ogre has landed at Cape Jaan. March 11. Tho Tiger has arrived at the gap. March 12. The monster slept at Greenoble. March 13. The Usurper is directing his steps toward Dyon, but the brave and loyal Burgundians have risen n masse and surrounded him on all sides. March 18. Bonaparte is only sixty leagues from the Capital; he had been fortunate enough to escape the hands of his pursuers. March 19. Bonaparte advancing with rapid steps, but he will never enter Paris. March 20. Napolen will to-morrow be under our ramparts. March 21. The Emperor is at Fountainbeau. March 22. His Imperial and Royal Majesty yesterday evening arrived at the Tuileries, amidst the joyful acclamations of his devoted and faithful sub. jects. The Journal des Debats, in reference to the escape from Elba, spoke of Napoleon on the 9th of March, aä the 'Poltroon of 1814." On the 15th, it said of him: "Scourge of Generation, thou shalt reign no more!" On the IGth he is aRobespierreon horseback;" on tbe 19th "The adventurer from Corsica;" but on the 21st we are gravel v informed that the ''Emperor has pursued his triumphal course, having found no other enemies than the miserable libels which were vainly scattered on his path to impede his progress." The Blush.Making Bonnet. PhiUdelphl Tim. Presuming that ladies no longer naturally blush that they have from one cause or another grown out of it some French genius has made arrangements which will enable them to renew this pleasant delusion in spite ot nature. The new blushing arrangement comes in the shape of a bonnet. The bonnets of the period aret as everybody knows, expensive enough to include a greet deal of any kind of machinery that may be needed, from a Corliss engine down to a sewing machine. To the side ribbons of the artificial blush-making bonnet, it is explained, "are attached two small but powerful steel springs, ending in round pads, which are brought to bear upon the temporal arteries by the action of bowing the head, one exquisitely appropriate to modest embarrassment, and, by artificially forcing blood into the cheeks, cause them to be suffused at a moment's notice." There is the most wonderful opportunity in a little thing like that, and no lady need hereafte; be without her blushes. Much effot is often, produced by a blush t right moment. : c t m ...... .
