 "C0NTnABAXDs" s"-THE NORTH REAP1NG ITS RtwARD-N EGgoPHoCIA IN THE NoRTH.-The North is beginning to get foretaste of the "contraband5" that are Hooking by thousands to her bosom. We make from the northern papers some extracts, showing the tendency of this policy in the North:
 From the Hartford (Ct,) Times.
 The country is beginning to get foretaste ot the evil attending released slaves. The contra bands are now costing the government one hun dred thousand dollars day. They are lying upon the walks, on the steps and ln the yards about Washington At Port Royal they are so Iazv as to be almost valuess as ]aborers; but ,hev will eat the ra:ions, and lie around loose. a burden upon tue army and the treasury. Let ,he emancipation become general, and the white population will be forced to drive them out ot the south or to leave themselves.
 Perhaps q hundred thousand or so will come to Connecticut. The quota for Peunsg sglyanIa will be at least five times as many!J Will the aboii,onists take care of them, or turn them hungary away from their doors? What effect will they have upon society, upon labor, upon public sentiment here, when they flock into our towns and villages in such numbers as to be- come burdersome? Why are the Western Srates-Kansas, Illinois, etc.--making the se- yercst laws to prevent negro from settling with in their limits? Where are the four million con trabards to go? Already enough has been seen to satisfy reasonable pien t,at they will not sup, i port themselves. We suspect that New England ! will find, oue of these ,days, that emancipation ! is a measure well calculated to make sad lhroaaS i upon her prosperity. That the doctrine tends to break up the union forever Is quite apparent, 1 But the radical abohtlonlsts seem 10 cohIo' measures in Congress, and to have Teneral sway over a large portion of the pabllc sentiment a' the north. For the good of the negroes and the welflre of the whites, the people should pause ard reflect upon this grave questlon-and then act with reason, and in accordance with the die tatego humanity if. indeed. they are determined to pay little CT no regard to the compromise ano the principles of the Constitution.
 From the Dayton (Ohio) Empire. I As inc r,nnire is the organ and mind of white men. wish. through it's columns, to call a'ten tion of the working men of the city ot Dayton t the fact. that. at no time heretofore, were there so many negroes in the city AS there are at tn' prcsent time Go where you will, you meet them their duslty faces greet you at every turn, anu majority of them seemingly strangers oeieV' there is a branch of the underground railroad II operation bere, for ali seem to get ready employ inent on their arrival.
 For instance
 In one shop in this city there are four neer 1, blacksmi.hs In certain glue factory all th hands are negroes.
 A white man making one dollar day, run ming stationary engine in certain carpeh'e shop, had to leave to make room for contra band at eighty cents per day.
 A certain nabob on Main street, and grea war man. and encourager of our brave boys [ volunteer, some time ago had white man work for him. One morning he told the ma that be wanted him to do additional work. I'm ssms nebob had a usgrc he was raisis2, gr7w
