SUCCESS OF GRN. BANKS FREE Labor
IARRANaEMENrs.-Co James McKaye of
New York, one Of a commission appointed
some time ago by Secretary Stanton to exam
inc into the condition Of the freedmen of the
South, has made supplementary report as
to the condition OF the negroes in Gen. Banks
department. He says:
" The negroes accept the condition Of labor
for their own maintenance, and the musket
for their freedom. They demand, in the first
instance, that, to whatever punishment they
may be subjected, they shall not be fogged
second, that they shall labor only when they
are we'll treated: third, that families shall
not be separated fourth that their children
shall be educated. With these stipulations,
have never found any person of that race
who did not readily accept the necessity Of
continuous and faithful labor at just rates of
compensation, which they seem willing to
leave to the government. As far as the ex-
pertinent goes in this department, they have
justified in the fullest degree this conclusion,
and, subject to the conditions which they i'm
pose, they are willing to and have rendered
faithful labor" The free col
ored people of Louisiana are, as body. as
well educated, as intelligent, as orderly and
as industrious AS any other equal portion Of
the common population of the state on an
average, as rich as the mass Of the people of
the free states and certainly far more loyal
than their white fellow-citizens in the state
There are about 5000 free negroes in Louis
lana, and their property is estimated at from
l3 to / ) million dollars.
