Hsy-The Yankee authorities at Norfolk have
established colony for blacks near that city, and
Immediately in rear Of the cemetery. They are
not allowed to visit the city, nor to penetrate the
rural districts. Here, to the number of three
thousand or more, they are living filthy in pens,
and upon means so scant, that they are daily har-
rassed by hunger. Their condition is said to be
terrible in the extreme, and the entire settlement
presents scene Of the most squa!id wretchedness.
Guards placed in their front and rear, to con-
fine them to the narrow limits prescribed by their
newly found friends ano benefactors.
