THE IMMIGRATION SCHEME.

~. In the eff which ars now being
made, to supply us with labor from Eng
land and the continent, it is not expected
orintended, to supplant that class of work.
! ing men which we now have amongst US.
TIE blacks as a race are we'll adapted to
our climate, their increase in it has been
most rapid, and we see no reason why
they should not continue to increase, and
improve their condition, under the new
order of things.
But it must be remembered, that be-
fore the war we were scant Of laborers
and were not able to cultivate Que tenth OF
the arabic land, in Virginia and North
Carolina Since the beginning of the war,
thousands of the black men have quit us,
and sought new homes, and in many ca
SEES new pursuits elsewhere. 1t is not
likely that they will return to their old
. homesteads and old avocations. What
do we find to be the result The answer
is plain. In many counties, the quantity
Of bread stufs raised, is barely suffici-
ent to find the people within their borders.
To correct this evil, to bring to each
mans door, that which is the foundation
of all swealth, productive labor, is the
object Of the new emigration scheme
which has just been announced to the
public, and which we feel assured will be
cordially endo, sed by all. who take an
interest in our future veal or wo.
AS regards the black man, his destiny
is in his own hands, the fortunes of war,
has decreed that hereafter his labors
shall be in competition with the white race,
instead Of, as heretofore working as. an
ally. The history of his race, in the past,
has but little of encouragement for him
in the future. Yet from the elements Of
character, which has been displayed by
the black race. during the war, we were
led to hope and believe, that he has reach
ed that stage in the march of civilization,
which may enable him to make discourse
upward and onward, instead of repeating
the mournful history Of his race, by rever-
ting into degradation, and finally termi
mating In his humiliation.

|DIAB0LIoAL OUTRAGE AT EVANS
WILLIE, INDIANA.

Much excitement was produced in the city
early yesterday morning by reports that
crime heretofore, we believe, unheard of in
his vicinity, had been perpetrated near this
city The facts as we ascertain them, are
about as follows: About six O'Clock yesters
day morning Mrs. Dullinger, who lives some
distance in the county, was on her way to the
city to attend church, and when near the resi-
dence of Mr.. e. j. Dobell, she was attacked
by two negroes. She being stout woman +,
about forty-five or fifty years of age, made for
time successful resistance, when one of
the brutes drew pocket knife and cut her
several times severely in the face, neck and
shoulder. Growing faint from loss of blood,
she was overpowered by the brutes and drag
ge across fence into cornfeld, where her
person was violated by both, who then made
deliberate attempt to kill her, but were
frightened away by hearing persons appro Ach-
liug. The whole neighborhood was quickly
aroused and turned out in search of the fends
In the meantime the half murdered woman
was conveyed home and physicians called to
her assistance, who report her in a critical
condition. g. i.r.s.. .e s,
Dligent search was made for the perpetra.
tors OF the horrid crime, and young negro
named Joe Coins was arrested by officers
Jewett and Long, brought TO town and lodged
| ia Jail; but it was not then known that he
was participation in the crime. Late in the
afternoon the other brute was pointed out TO
Joe Westboro and his brother by a negro
boy, and was by them arrested and brought
o Town and lodged in jail We were unable
to learn his name. He lived near Westboro's,
beyond Pigeon creek, near the railroad. We
are informed that he made confession Of
the diabolical crime, duplicating the boy
Joe. Upon searching him the knife was found,
bloody, aud his clothes were bloody, though
be had made an effort to wash the blood from
bis shir There were also found on his per-
500 razor, the earrings of their victim,
whic had been literally torn from her ears,
and 81 in money. The boy Joe, we under
stand, acknowledged getting ST. from the 9TH
or negro. The amount of money taken from
the woman was about fifteen dollars. This
res citing outrage has created much feeling
in the cry, and the infamous and british
VIE ehes will no doubt receive, as they de-
serVs the severest punishment of the law.

, THERE is a joke-though possi-
bly a wicked one-on a certain chap
lain, which ought not to be lost to
the world. 1t is the chaplain's bu-
siness to look after the regimental
mail. This chaplain had been an
noyed exceedingly by the great num-
Der of warriors who were running to q
him and enquiring about the arrival
and departure of the mails. To save
time and patience he posted a notice
outside his tent which read "The
chaplain does not know when the
mail will co." and imagined his trou-
bles at an end. He was absent from
camp that day, and on returning and
glancing at the notice was Mortified
to see there upon his own door, read
by multitudes during the day, in
hand exactly counterfeiting his own,
the following words: :" neither does
he care a damn" 1t was case of
depravity that he was unprepared for.
