We shall have to read a lecture to
some oe these agents Of the Freednens
Bureau, General Howard among the rest.
They tell the negro he must go to work
Immediately. He must make contracts
and stick to them--do a good days work
erery day. One fellow went 30 far as to
say, if they did not, he would make
them 1t is not in order to talk that way
to freedmen. Seine freedmen ought to
take these agents out and talk to them.
Speak to white men in that style, and
they would tell you to dry up and go to
work yourself Put him Output him
ont. Be it known by all men concerned
that all men were created equal, espec-
tally the freedmen. Let's have no more
of this baby talk to men; it is imperti-
nent and unbecoming in men pretending
to be loyal. tbs just the way slave
holders used to talk to contrabands.-
The radical majority ought to put veto
on such speeches and we lock for them to
do it.

THE DARKIss IsD1GNANr.-From Z

THE DARkIRs INDIGNANT.-From the
Knoxville (Tenn.) Whig we learn that
amalgamation is not very popular in that
city. A negro preacher recently married
Martin Shower, a white man from Ohio,
to Jane Lewis, colored. Immediately
after the nuptials were performed, and
before the happy bridegroom had time
to ''taste the sweets of mis- wife's lips"
the Chief of Police entered the room and
found Mr.. Shower, who is represented as
a fairskinned man of fine appearance,
sitting by his fair bride, who Is as black
as the ace of spades. Without much
ceremony he took Mr.. s. by the throat
and chastised him severely with a small
hichory cane, and ordered him to leave
the town Immediately. The most amns-
ing part of the whole affair Is that the
Africans of Knoxville are themselves
very indignant at Showers presump-
tion. r-. -.
