that some will act ftom the mistaken notion
that freedom means liberty to be idle. This
class of persons, known as vagrants, must at
once correct this mistake. They will not be al.
lowed to live in idleness when there is work 10
be bad.
You are not TO suppose that your former mas
ters have become your enemies because you are
free. All good men among them will recognize
your new relations to them az free laborers
md as you prove yourselves honest, industrious
lnd frugal you will receive from them Kindness
md consideration. II others tail to recognize
your right to equal freedom with white persons,
you will fnd the government, through the agents
Of this bureau, as ready to secure to you as to
them liberty and justice
Schools, as far as possible, will be established
among you, under the protection of the govern
ernment. You will remember that in your con-
IitiOn as ireemen, education is Of the highest
Importance, and it is hoped that you will avail
yourselves to the utmost, Of the opportunities
offered you.
In the new career before you each one must
feel the great responsibility that rests upon HIM
self in shaping the destinies of his race. The
special care that the government now exercises
aud you will be left to work and provide Tor
yourselves.
IL is then, of the greatest importance that
you take immediate advantage of the protection
and assistance now afforded you to place your
selves in position in which you can do 50, All
officers and employees OF this Bureau will aid
you in doing this. II you are in location
where work is to be obtained at fair wages 1t is
much better for you to remain than to be look
ing for something better You must remember
that, owing to the unsettled state of the coun-
try, work is scarce, and the chances are against
finding constant employment at high wages.
Be quiet peaceable, law-abding citizens. Be
industrious, bo frugal and the glory Of passing
successfully from slavery to freedom will, by the
blessing OF God be yours o. Baows,
Colonel and ASS! Commissioner. "

On the 4th inst, the following address 10 the
freedmen OF Virginia WAS issued By Col o.
Brown, Commissioner of Refugees, Freedmen

will aid you, but this assistance will DO OF little

Negro Suffrage.

NS6AN pAhiobO'
Mr.. EDToR- Dear Sir Supposinp that tn,
approval of their patrons is not dsagreeable lC
editors, cannot resist the inclination to gy'
you word Of hearty approval for the courst
you are pleased to take, and for what you ar,
giving US, from week 10 week, on the important
question OF whether the negro shall be allowed
the privilege of voting or not.
10 the name OF common sense, what can mer
be thinking Of to wish to leave this business OIL
reducing to practice the principles Of tho Deca
ration Of Independence, half done. We are
taught in that immortal document that all meu
are created equal but, for more than three
quarters of a century, the practices of our gov.
eminent have been giving the lie to the declara.
ton. Behold, in the condition of our country
Tor the last four Yeas, the consequences.
Cannot our servants, or, as they would per
haps prefer to be called, our rulers, learn lha
no government can move on IN peace and safety
without practicing justice, even though ID
practice might consign few Of our leading
I traitors the ignomiDy of the gallowa
what, shall those who have been, for four
long years, trying by oil means, fair or foul, to
strike down tho government reared by our fore
fathers, amid the hardships and perils of our
first Revolution, be restored to the privileges
which their actions have forfeited and be allowed
a voice IN the administration Of government
which they only just failed to overthrow while
those who did noble service in its defense, who
walked manfully beneath the folds OF our ma.

brave defenders, it would deserve and MAr re-
ceive, another four years baptism Of blood.
Tue negro has proved himself loyal, in all pc
sltions, and fair usage requires that he should
be allowed voice in the affairs Of our govern
eminent. Il is contended that the negro has not
intelligence enough to vote. Ask those who
make this argument which is most worthy to
be trusted, he who has at all times and under
all circumstances, proved true and faithful, or
he who has little more intelligence, perhaps,
but has proved false and ,rcacherous to his
country, whose laws he was bound by his oath
to obey On the score of intelligence, the negro
will not suffer in comparison with many for.

faction, lead the Republic to compromise ts
safety or its honor
During the progress toward restoration, the
nation holds the States in military occupation, by
powers resulting necessarily from successful war.
lhis hold upon them is to be continued until this
or some other experiment does succeed. We
need not be precipitate. The present authority,
although resulting from war, may as we have
said, be largely exercised by civil methods and
civil functionares, and be accompanied with the
enJ )yment of many civil rights and local munici
pal institutions, executive and judicial. If the
present experiment fails, we may try the expert
mkt Of building by the people from the founda-
ton, by means Of municpd institutions Of towns
and counties, with the aid ofeducation, commerce
and immigration, new spirit being infused, and
the people becoming accommodated to their new
relations, and so advance gradually to complete
restoration.
This is but one suggestion. Various methods
are open to u.s. Only let it be understood, that
there IS no point al which The rebels can defy po.
hhcaly, any more than AIsy could in war, The
authority Of The Republic The end the nation
has in view is the same as that for which the war
was accepted and proseeuted-the restoration Of
iI.e Stdtes 10 their legitimate relations toith The
RPubhc. The condiuon Of things call for nc
limitations Of time or methods. BY whatever
course oireasonng it may be reached, upon wha'
ever doctrine of public law it may rest, however
long may be the interval Of waiting, and whatever
may be the process resotted to, the friends and
enemies Of the Republic should alike understand,
that it has the powers and will use the means to
Insure hnal restoration of the States, with con-
sdtutons which are Republican, and with pro.
visions that shall secure the public safety and the
public faith.

number Of the 81. James Maga;iHe has the fol-
loving
1ilesius declares his belief that mammoth
skeletons It'll left in Northern Russia exceed in
number all the elephants now EXISTING upon the
globe Doubtless The process OF mammoth ex-
tnction was very gradual, and extended over an
enormous space Of time. This circumstance IS
indicated by the varying condition IN which the
tine, or soft animal matter, OF many specimens
remains, imparting one Of the characteristics
necessary to the being OF ivory, other specimens
have lost this material, and mineral substances,
inhlttaung, have taken It's place. The gem
turquoise ls pretty generally conceded to be
nothing else than the losszed tooth Of some
e1iine; municipality the mammoth.
Curiosity OF speculation prompts the mind
to imagine to itself the time when the last Of
these gigantic animals succumbed to Influences
that were finally destined to sweep them all from
the earth. Had men come upon the scene when
they roamed their native wllds Were those

they were engaged to be married The doctor
was a strong and decided Presbyterian, and bis
lady love as strong and decided Baptist. They
were sitting together one evening talking over
their approaching nuptials, when the doctor re.
marked

"One is the hour when | shall call you my

"Well, sir, can tell you then, that your

The lady left the room, and the doctor left the
house. The quel to this true tory was that
the doctor never married, and the lady is an old
