1t says that when Mr.. Stanton was in Sayan-

twenty Of the leading men among the nc
g1oes, such as they selected to represent
them. They sent their most intelligent men,
their class-1eaders, preachers, some of the
large-bEained, shrewd, clcar-headed men.
With this body Of representative men, Gen.
Sherman, in the presence Of Mr.. Stanton, en-
tered into full and free conference regard
ing their condition and wishes. They fully
explained to him their situatio and thci,Sde-
sircs. They told him that their principal
want was ]and. If they had the assu:ed.pos-
session Of land, they would support them
selves. They were then asked whether they
preferred to live By themselves, or with
white people, After consultation, they an
swcrcd. that for the present they would pre-
fer to be by themselves. The scheme was
therefore arranged in most Of its details in
