FREE NEGRoEs.-We have heretofore
alluded to the manner in which these
people have congregated around and
among us, contrary to the interests of our
people and City, if not against law. The
vigilance of our Intendant andC Commission
ers, for considerable time exercised, has
restrained their further settlement in the
City yet we find them on the outskirts,
in increasing numbers, fully convenient
for all purposes of using the City for their
pleasure or depredations. 1t is true, a few
of them are sober, honest and industrious;
and against such we have no complaint
to make: but the free negroes generally,
as n class, are of no benefit to the COM
munity; but merely pest and burden
they get their living in a questionable man.
ner-seldom can be got to work for hire
set bad and corrupting example to the
slaves, who consider themselves, as good
or even better than the free negroes, and
entitled to greater consideration and priv
ilege-are idle and vicious, at the present,
and, as their numbers increase, bid fair to
become intolorable.
Every City and town in the State--nay
every county, should be invested by the
Legislature with power of protection
against free encroachment. 1t is not our
province to point out the measure of
remedy-we simply call attention to the
subject, that public officers and rejecting
men, may investigate the subject, and,
if any thing is wrong put it right.
In connection with this subject, we are
happy to perceive that the Intendant
gives notes this week, that application
will be made at the next Legislature for
the amendn ent Of our City Charter-see
adyertisement.-G Giraffe.
