are disposed TO work in good faith and
those who will Shirk the duty incumbent

When divided into small squads, with the
example of white laborers TO stimulate
and encourage them, there is a much
better prospect of their working regularly
and honestly than under the old system
of working in large gangs with a single
overseer to overlook them Any how, the
land must be cultivated, and if the ne
groes will not serve for that purpose,
their place must be supplied by another
kind of laborers. There is every desire
and interest to give them fair trial; but

patient of the long delay in realizing the
benefits which have been SO often promis.
ed from their emancipation.
