and the melancholy letters lent 10 ia from

that great, cruel and as We firmly believe
disastrous mistakes are at least possible. There
are two ways of managing this business which
We will sta a. PLAINLY a. we can:
/. There seem, to b. some inclination to cx-
pertinent after the old diabolic, and as we had
fondly hoped, exploded fashion, whereof the
essence il swind.ing more or less disguised, the
adjunct5 being cruelty ana sncering contempt
for the weak and helpless. Now We do not in
tend to acqu.escc silently in this vllainous style
of procedure, If for no other and better reason
than because our own reputation for the COM
moncst kind OF sagecity is at stake. Having
recommended that the Blacks should be treated
"a human beings, we cannot be responsible for

skin, TO beat, to bruise and TO kick, to starye
ami o. frcezc--if this is to be your amiable
policy. c., f You are to retain all the worst
features of the old system, without its mitga-
with the full assurance that they will not be
dulcc,. Tic thing has been tired in other
countrios--n ireland, for instance--with such
miserable result, such anarchy. pGuperism and
dcplorablc lack OF profit, that We must be
madden than mad and binder than blind if we
entail upon our future lifo legacy OF pertina-
cious and puzzing confusion. Only We protest
in advance, if this course is to DO pursued,
against laundering and blinking deductions
from the disastrous result, in favor of the invOl
untary and unpaid system Of labor. Tho trick
of giving an old crime new name has been
played before, but never, wo think, has it proved
advantageous TO the serenity of focie,y.
III. The second course to be pursued is the
plain and we should think easy one, of treating
the Black just as you would treat a White Man
under the same circumstances. Human nature
is alike everywhere. Kindness justice and
scrupulous equity will always bear fruit in
peaceable, industriously inclined and thrifty
workmen. Nobody doubts this in New-York-
We cannot, FOX the life Of US, SEQ why there
should be any sLepticism in Richmond.
If Gov. Pierpont finds it Necessary to arrest
and send to prison over 200 Freedmen in single
day, there being no riot, strike or turnout, all
we nave to say is that the governing in Rich.
mond must be of pretty mean description. 1t
is not in the least probable that any such whole.

implies threatened anarchy, an Instruction, q
massacre projected--but while We have the
effect there is not the least prctense Of these
causes. Richmond seems to be about as quiet
and peaceable as Boston or Ncw-York. We

they are sent to Jail by fellows who few weeks
ago were Secession constables, dOminecring over
our poor soldiers in Castle Thunder. Really, it
seems to be q crime for a Black to walk the
streets of Richmond. COorcd children cannot

are subjected to cruel and unusual punshments.
If these things go on, We shall have trouble bit.
tercr and bitterer, until hard experience has ham,
mered little common-sense into our skulls ana
a little softened our hearts.
Let us suppose a condition Of things in New
York like that in Richmond! Let us imagine
all the employees in this city mischievousiy lay
ing their heads together to make their laborerS
work for little or nothing! Let us suppose the
police carrying to the Tombs every artisan pro-
testing against injustice! What does the reader
think would be the result 7 We can tell him in
a very few words. The fre-bells would be
ringing every hour IN every part OF the city.
Warehouses and workshops would be first
pundercd and then burned. Production and
trade would DO generally suspended. There
would be cannon about the City Hall, cannon
about the Custom House, cannon about the
Treasury, cannon commanding every great
thoroughfare. There would be no law but
martial law, no safety save in swords and mus
kets, no peace except that purchased at the
price of personal freedom. Such would be the
amentable and disastrous effect of wIong.dong
here; and in the end, the practical protest
would find some way Of enforcing itself. We
are spared these scenes Of violence, disorder
and destruction, simply because society means
in the main to have justice between man and
man. the richest and the poorest az rgdly en-
forced as possible. Try the same thing IN Rich
mond, and see if We have any more humiliatins
reports like those which have reached US!
About the bad treatment of the Freedmen IN
Richmond there can be no question. The testi-
mony is ample, concurrent and credible. Some
of il is of a character to crimson with shame the
cheek Of every honest citizen. The appeal OF
colored men, free born, men of property ana
taxpayers, which we published on the I2th
inst. is document which it will not be wise to
disregard. We most ardently desire the com
plcte return Of peace, and those excellent results
for which we have paid so dearly. Every tale
of oppression which reaches Us fills US with
double measure of Indignation. partly because
we OF the North are now chiefly responsible TOR
the fair treatment of class which we profess to
have emancipated, and partly because we desire
nothing more earnestly than the final adjust
ment Of this ruinous and demcralizing quarrel.
We hunger for peace. but no peace Will be
palatablc or permanent which Is not founded
upon exact and equal justice TO all. Let us

and with Rebel Aiabamas bent on their destruc-

necessary no longer. Many consulates should
be discontinued; such useless Missions as that
to Rome SHOULD be likewise discontinued; while
the compensation Of our representatives at the
Courts Of Portugal, Switzerland, Ecuador,

THE CONCRETOR.
To tie Editor of tie Iatigua Times.

To tie Editor Of tie -1atigua Times.
'Sir,-AIlow me to hand you, according
to my promise made through your con-
temporary he Register, such an account
Of the Concre)or as | have been able to
put together from the verbal description
with which Mr., Fryer favoured me.
The problem he set before himself was
no less than to eyaporatc as nearly as
possible to perfect dryness, large masses of
liquid, in the shortest possible time
without exceeding a definite amount Of
heat. The different parts Of this problem
seem so irreconcileably contradictory,
that it need not be wondered at, if its So
luton have cost the inventor the thought
and labour Of ten years. A simple illus
traIion Of the way in which it has at
length been accomplished by him, may
be given in the effect of throwing a tum-
bIertuI of waller upon a stone pavement
exposed to wind and sunshine. Every
drop of the water would be dried up long
before the same quantity could be boiled
away in a small deep pan, even upon a
very hot fire, and yet no particle would
at any time have been hotter than the
sun-warmed flags.
The machine consists of three principal
parts, The Tray, The Cylinder, and The
Drum. I will describe each in order.
I. The Tray is placed as close as pos
sible to the Sugar-mill and receives the
juice direct from the Rollers. 1t is of

habitants of Schleswig-Holstein them
selves, and the principle of it has already
been accepted by Austria, subject, how
ever, as there is reason to believe, to con-
ditions which must render it nugatory.
One of these is thAt'neither she nor Prus-
STA is 10 be bound by the vote of the Re-
preventative Assembly to be convened
in SchIesWig- Hoistrln-a proviso TO
which NJ. Won Blsmark "assented at once"
Another is that no question should be sub
mitted to that Assembly, except by the
two protecting Governments con jointly
a proyiso which, however reasonable in
itself, is very likely to prevent any def
mite question whatever being submitted
to them. Our Paris contemporary, La
EFaacs, oXuits rather p~rematurely in this
triumph Of French ideas and French poll
cy, recommending ga broad and earnest
|''aDpeaI to universal suffrage" For our
own part, We are less sanguinc, not only
because We have less faith in that French
specific, but because we have a very strong
impress n that thc verdict Of universal
suffrage, l.if should happen 10 clash with
ri. voH BjsmariI& designs, would be treat
Cd very much like the vote Of the Frank
fort Diet. Now, the Duchies are known
to be loyal to the Prince Of Auguslen-
burg. they are known to object to an
ama!@amation Of their army with the
Ptussjan, and they are known to have
more sympathy with The Liberal party in
Germany than with that which pred0mi-
mates IN Prussia. 1t may be that all these
prejudices Will be got over, and that the
