The Mobile Tribune publishes an address
to the planters of Alabama, dated ut Mont
gomery Oct. 18th, and signed by Boiling
Hale. Geo. Winston, Geo. GoldthWaite, Jas.
II. Clan,on and VIM. q. Baldwin, whose ad
vice is as follows:
The result of the recent war, so disastrous
10 the South has been revolution Of your
entire labor system. The four hundred thou
sand blacks who were recently your slaves
and subject to your will in their every move
meut are no longer under your individual
control Hitherto you have been accnstom-
I'd to direct their labor by your sovereign
mandate. You can command it now only
by contract This brings about relations
which are new to both races, aud brings
them So suddenly upon each that both you
and the blacks find it difficult to accommo
date yourselves to the mighty change. The
black man is dazxled, il not intoxicated, with
freedom suddenly thrust upon him, while
the white man is more or less oppressed with
the thought that this element OF his wealth
is swept from him. The ignorant black man
has in many instances, fallen into the deus
ion that freedom means exemption from
manual labor. and the white man, discourage
ed by the Incidence, in many cases the inso-
lence of the negro has exhibited symptoms
of dependency bordering on apathy.
The Richmond Enquirer Is revived by
Messrs Tyler, lis late proprietor, and Cole
man. 1t has a salutatory III which its edi-
tors say that the cause for which they con-
tended has gone down forever, and adding,
the oath of allegiance taken by ourselves in
common with our fellow citizens has far
different significance than the same oath
could have had before the unsettled Of SUI
pftmacy between States and Federal Gov
ernments had been decided by the arbltra-
ment of war; Now we acknowledge allegi-
ance first to the U, ion; before we held ODE
dience to be due, first to the State. The
same honesty and sincerity which made the
SONS of Virginia brave the dangers of battle,
and suffer uncomplaihingly the hardships OF
four years Of war, will make them fhithfu),
and their oath allegiance
