Jr., Ses the liittie Cloud in tUe Political SKy. -" The New York Herald, of Monday, contains the following report of the swmon delivered in his church in New York by ReV. Thoa. Dixon, late of North Carolina, last Sunday: A laree conereealioo eathered yes ferdav morninz in the hall of the Young Men's Christian Association to listen to a sermon oy me wv. Dr. Thomas Dixon, Jr.. pastor of the Twentv-third street Baptist Uliurcn. The sermon commemorated the close of the first year of Dr. Dixon s pas torale in New York city. Dr. Dixon bearan with the progres sive text: "Forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forth unto those tbmes which are before He spoke on the need ot live men in the nulnit and of broadening the field of church work. Then he spoke of the various forces which the church must conquer or modify. ANSWERING INGAIXS. "The time has come for the Church to make its influence felt in the poll ti cal world. We haye separated Church and State; so far bave we separated them, that we have practically lert tho State in the bands of the devil. Senator Inealls. who recently dated his letters irom the Vice tr residents Chamber, gave utterance lately to the following remarkable deliverance : The decaloeue and the golden rale bare no place in a political campaign. Their object 18 success. This modern cant abont corruption Or pon tics is fatiguing in the extreme. . It proceeds from the tea dastard and the syllabub diiet tnnteisin, the frivolous and desultory, senti nientaJimn of epicenes. - - Patronage will allure the ambitious, force will coerce the timid, detuagogism will jtull the credulous, fraud will rob the wealc.money will buy the mercenary. . .. All I have to say in reply to this i that the man who does not believe in purity is impure. Themsnwho does not believe in honesty is dishon est. The man who does not believe in truth is a liar. Ibis nation was founded on the Decalogue and the Ten Commandments. The men who landed at Ply mouth Rock landed on their kneep. The foundations of thi3 Republic were cut from the quarry of Upd s eternal granite, its tounda lion stones were iaia in cement maae with the tears and blood of Chrisiian men and women. The man who has outgrown the Decalogue and the Golden Rule has outgrown Lis use fulness in Ibis nation. A PASSIONATE PBEDICTION. "The party that repudiates them had better prepare for tho funeral ceremonies. In the name of the liv ing God of heaven and earth, I say to Mr. Ingalls, that God s truth and righteousness must and will prevail The righteous indignation of a long suffering people is now being aroused from sea to sea. In some States the cloud is no bigger than a man's hand ; but the propl et of old mage haste, when he saw such a cloud, and the rain burst in torrents before they couia descend the mountain side. This flood is surely coming and when it dors burst it will sweep Mr lngalls ana an tue men who believe as he be lieves, with the host of small fry politicians who have strutted before this long suffering nation into merit ed oblivion. "The lime is rapidly drawinc nigh wnen it win be impossible for men. who bold such views as the distin guish-d benator has proclaimed, to live in American politics. Tlja time is rapidly approaching when men of impure and vile lives cannot float their dirty rags on the flag pule of the City Hall of New York. 'The time is coming when truth and right eousness will prevail, and pothouse politicians naa as well lake fair no uce of the coming revolutions!

"The Knin of Niggers," said the Evan gelist. "Was Politics and Whiskey." Charlotte Chronicle. ' , '. - - 8am Jones never preached in a building more thoroughly packed than was the tabernacle at the service for negroes yesterdav afternoon. Ev ery bench in the vast building held as many people as could squeeze into it. and every aisle was a solid phalanx of humanity from, the door te the platform. n.ver since Ham Jones has been in Charlotte the colored population has evinced an eagerness to hear him. and at every service the negroes have oc cupied nearly all the spare space in the tabernacle. . . THE COLORED BRETHREN TURNED OCT. It was announced twoor three days ago that the afternoon service would be especially for colored people, and almost as soton as the congregation at the morumg service had vacated the building, the negroes began to pour in. Hundreds of 'negroes came in from the-country.and f rdms the towns of the surrounding sections, luarly after dinner olacfc processions could be seen in all parts of the city, and the tabernacle was the objective point of an or them. By half pasfone o'clock the build ing was apparently full, many of the elevated seats beint, occupied by white people; and still the dark mast of humanity moved on toward the tabernacle, seemingly coming from an inexhaustible source. THE WHITES TURNED OUT. About o clock the wunes were asked to retire to make room tor the ! colored people, and their seats were- filled as rapidly as they could get out of them. The negroes continued to come and the ushers continued to pack and pack long Alter the buildinglook ed as u it would hold no more. ON THE CHOIR PLATFORM was the best Fingers of the colored churches and Biddle Institute of the city, and quite a number of the col ored parsons clustered about the plat rorin. Ine singing by the negroes uu der the direction of Prof. Excell was very fine. Several of the quick fast tunes in iriumpnant songs, were sung with life and spirit, and as only negroes can sng. They sanoneof their own familiar church tunes, and it seemed that every one of the seven or eight thousand voices joined in. and they were heard almost all over the city. Before the singing of this song was hall over, a number of the brethren and sister got happy, and were bound to 6hout. Prof. Excell followed with a solo. ihe road to Heaven," the congrega liou joining in the chorus. Mr. Jones then arose and said that he was clad that that road runs through Charlotte, and all may get-on it, and ride to glory. He announced that Rev. Mr. Siuart would first speak to tue crowd. J1R. bTU ARTS REMARKS. Mr. Stuart arose and said that it was not a task to speak on this oc casion. 1 have read and thought much about the problem of the color ed race. 1 am interested in you. and want to talk to you a"xut this text 'Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord." You are different from the white man, but God ha his pur pose in you, and will bring you safely through your troubles, if you stick to aim and ihe right. Mr. Stuart proceeded to give the negroes a practical lecture on the conditions necessary for them to be blessed. MR JONES TO THE NEGROES. Mr. Jones began by asking his hear ers if they had rather hear the plain truth than something that would oiase . tuem cry ana snout: ana a number responded, "yes." Mr. Jones proceeded by saying that he would enlarge on Mr. Stuart s text. I will tell you some of the things you must do for the Liord to bevour God First you must be honest. Some folks say that every negro will steal but thats a he. Some of them are as honest as anybody : and I don't know whether the judgment will reveal that the negroes took more from the white folks, or 119 white folks more from the negroes. ABOUT HONESTY. All of you can be honest if you will. even if you do remain poor. God nev er made a man but that could be honest if he would, and I'm glad its so. To be honest you must bo industri ous. Ihe greatest trouble with you niggers is, you don t work enough. You see a nigger a loitering around, doing nothing, and the first thing anybody knows he is raising chickens before they are half grown, and that fellow goes through the chain gang on his way to hell. If one of you taggers lie around in idleness a while, you ge.t hungry and borrow. INDUSTRY AND WHISKEY. To be industrious you must be sober. Whiskey makes honest men steal, and makes brave men cowards. A nigger will go to the saloon all the week , and make a bill promising to pay Saturday, and concludes that he needs money worse than the bar keeper, and star is to pass by on the other side of the street, when the bar keeper calls him. He answers and ays "l was jest acomm . and knows he is telling a he. He pays his bill, gets two mora drinks, and goes home, perhaps, witti 20 cents in bis pocket. When be gets there his wife asks about the meal and meat and suear he promised to bring. He says be nan c promise "any such a thing. What makes you ran after them! POLITICS VS. POOR FOLKS. Politics wasn't made for poor folks nohow. The best thing for arou nig gers to do, is to look to God and your ueighbors for help. I had rather give up some of my white ' neighbors than some of my colored neighbors, for when any of my folks get sick, they will come and wait on them and woi k for roe. You' are good to go to see one another when you get sick, ain't you! (Voices, 4,yes.") Yoa go and stay till all the rations are eat up, and then leave em to die. You ought to stand up for one another more. SOCIAL EQUALITY. " Talk about social equality. You niggers don't want it. Niggers and whites will mix, but they mix at the bottom. It's the lowest down of both races, xou let politics and social equality alone, and go to 'work, you old fools. . - - x r . A WORD ON MORALITY. You mothers cannot be too careful abotK your girls, one bad girl can rum a whole street. Remember what Stuart said about your women. You will never be a great people as long as you sell your virtue for a spool of thread or piece ot ribbon. You preachers need to be honest and upright before your people. Preach sobriety, morality, and hon esty. Some negro preachers are the meanest men in town. They won l pay their debts, and you are like the old negro preacher that said there were three parts of his meeting, the text, the AuLject matter and the rouae- ment, and as lime was limited pro ceeded at once to the rousement. All you care for is a big "rousemeut. A WORD TO THE PREACHERS. Turning to some of the preachers, he said, no wonder you are sweating Don't try to irritate the white folks in their big balls. Quit trj ing to un dei mine your own. folds by talking about them, 'lie honest, industrious, sober, and strive to do right, and serve God. Don t you know that all the negroes loye whisky. All of you that don't 1 jvo it stand up, now don't lie. (About twenty-five stood up). I expect half of you ought to be knock - eddown, ; A PARTING WORD. You stick to your churches, to God, and one another. ' Quit your stealing. whiskey drinking, gambling, and lying, aud do right, and after awhile you'll get home to heaven ; . and your old black skins will p?el oS, and your hair will straighten right. Mr. Jones asked all who'were deter mined to live right in the futuie to rise, and nearly all the vast crowd stood up. and the benediction was pronounced. CHIPS FROM BABI JONES.
