The colored people of Raleigh and vicinity today celebrated the 29th an jniversary of Lincoln's proclamation I of emancipation which he issued after long consi Jeration as a war measure, and which he acknowledged was done with many misgivings as to its pol icy. In fact, it is well known among all those conversant with the history of the times, that it was the earnest' desire of Mr. Lincoln to save the union, if it could be doc without interfering with the "peculiar itibti ! tution" in States in which it existed, j and he so declared in Cabinet scs i sions and elsewhere, vve do not make this statement to throw col 1 water upon the custom of our colored people in rendering due homage to the mm v ho gave them the priceless boon of liberty. It is natural that they should feel grateful for such a bestowal, but it may be well for them to remember that it was not alto gether the result of Mr. Mr. Lincoln's own view? upon the matter. We are candid enough to say that in the be stowal of their gratitude the colored people should at least share som" of it with Secretary Staunton aud Sew ard, both of whom pressed aud ur.,'ed Lincoln to the movement at a time when he was reluctant to carry it out. However, the colored people are free and they have the undoubted right to celebrate the occasion as to them may seem test In doing so, they certainly have the good wishes of every white person who looks at the matter in itB proper light. The celebration today consisted as usual of a parade of the different col ored societies and appropriate exen cises in Metropolitan Hall, consisting of the reading of the emancipation proclamation by Prof L B. Cape hart, of Shaw University, a poem by Edna Earl Mitchell, of Tarboro, an address by Gov. Holt, and orations by Rev. Joshua A. Brockett, of War renton, and David Williams Parker, of St. Augustine school. Several of our prominent citizens and city offi -cial attended the exercises which were of a very interesting character.
