We recently received the following

we prlut It:
lieallxlntf the very ureal neceealty for
the reform of bumaully, and bellevlug
that this reform must be brought sbout
larwely by Individual self-refonn. To
this end we luatltule a society aud
adopt the following preamble and rrwo-
lutions ss a Dents from wiilcn to work:
IfAwiii, the reformatory efforts of
humaulty. thus far, have been mainly
devoted to trylug to eliminate evils in
others, by external appeals In the form
of apeechea, writings, aud arguments,
to prove the efficacy of certain meth
od or theories to reform the race, while
thone advancing them seem not to Un
iterm ami that reform comes from with
In. and muat be evolved for one s self;
and that only through self-reform can
one help to reform the reoe. lie It
therefore
Jirmjivtd, That ws, the undersigned,
constitute ourselves Into a society for
if refomi, to try to live lu harmony
Ith all life.
liitolvrtL Thsl we shsll endesvor to
so guanl our thoughts, that we shall
only evolve K'X"' oues; that we will
neither think nor speak ill of s not lie r,
no matter bow great the provocation;
ud that we will strive peralnteutiy to
be the embodiment of love and good
will.

our power we will not leave any effort
untried, nor let an opportunity pam vo
help our fellow beluga.

Lirrt.1! fhK K, tSept. 6. Partial re
turns received up to midnight from
all over the stats are to the effect that
the election has been quiet. A full
Democratic vote seems to have been
polled, hut there Is a great falling off
In the colored Republican vote, owing
to the unfamlliarlty with the Austra
lian ballot law and general Indiffer
ence. This was enpecially noticeable'
In the large negro counties. The Dem

undoubtedly elected by a large major
