A. unusual attention. Carroll said he was half white and had a right to talk to whites us well as colored. l)r. Lassiter, superintendent of the Whittemore (colored) School had invited and entertained Rev. Carrol? and was coachman of the preliminaries at the meeting. Rev. Sumter, of the Colored Methodist Church read Jeremiah 5-1, and Prov. 8-4. From those passages the speaker deducted his subject: "God looking for a man." Mayor Suggs introduced the speaker. Congratulated Conway on meeting a member of the race whose life ambition had been to build up the social and religious lives of the I more unfortunate of that race, and , upon his national success. For the valiant part acted by him in persuading the negroes to take up arms against the "hun." Upon his efforts with the victims of the death-house to go to the chair as Christians. Mr. Suggs introduced him as "The colored statesman of South Carolina, and one of the greatest benefactors of humanity to both races." The speaker asked the colored side of the audience to sing "Amazing Grace" which he said was written byJohn Newton, a prisoner condemned to die. He said the negroes can beat ! you white folks singing, you can beat them at everything else. H said the negroes in Savannah sung this for him to nine tunes. To be "The Man" for whom God is looking was shown to have a < j meaning of very much greater r | breadth and depth than many of us * probably thought. That to be that man is never to be an imitation of any other, as God had not intended 1 . any two to be alike, but to succeed I in whatever line or calling in which s j nature had placed us, and that that success should be nothing short of I j noble. You white .folks add to your t : .1 V Un.v,.. nc^rucs, nc .>tuu. 1 uu ivuww uic ? negroes will imitate you, in fact they will over-do it. Carroll is the master of the "ricebank" lan?ni;ure and toM some funny , jokes which kept his audience in a * a very pood hun\or during his entire talk. ,?o Get stenographer's note books at ^ The Herald office.
